Features: So naked, like this, before myself (and before you). The short essays record so much of me, life is like this, interwoven with countless dreams and realities. I truly enjoy this. Immersed in my own sensory world, I unpack my burdens, tear off the transparent outer layer, and what remains is naked, my unadorned soul. At this moment, I am happy. So pure, so transparent, hypocritical yet close, simple yet sticky. I must sacrifice my desires, pretend to be quiet, let loose my repression, I must have my emotions... Is there a kind of happiness that, after lingering passion, doesn't leave regrets? Is there a passion that can be like a song, ending and being done with it? Xu Ruoyun, known for her delicate and sensitive personality, has finally fulfilled her childhood dream—to become a true writer, to record the tears and smiles of life with her pen, to carve out a new sky beyond songs, to exchange with those who understand.
