Nanfeng Ancient Alley
About This Novel
The protagonist Lin Wan obeyed the instructions of her grandmother Su Mei and walked into the faded paint-dappled Nanfeng Ancient Alley in the sticky drizzle, just to hide a bag of yellowed dried gardenia flowers under the stone slab of the third old house and look for the silver hairpin engraved with the word "Gardenia" - this is the key clue to find her grandmother's sister Gardenia, who has been missing for twenty years. It rains constantly in the ancient alley, and the inexplicable fragrance of gardenia lingers. Uncle Chen, who has been guarding the alley for 50 years, warned her about the "evil nature" of the old house, but still took her there. On the way, he revealed the secret behind the disappearance of Gardenia: on rainy days when the gardenia flowers were at their peak, the girl lost contact for no apparent reason. Only a little red shoe was left by the river. Every rainy day, the old house would be covered with ownerless white gardenia petals. In the old house with no green plants, Lin Wan touched the fresh and moist petals, and step by step approached the family secrets that had been sealed by the years...
