The novel is based on the life of urban white-collar workers. Through delicate psychological descriptions, it shows the living conditions of contemporary people under multiple pressures such as the workplace, emotions, and family. Those dilemmas, those tossing and turning nights, are all our common experiences. The protagonist's swing between career and love, ideals and reality is actually a portrayal of each of us. When we stand at the crossroads of life, every direction seems right but full of unknowns. There are too many choices and we are at a loss. Maybe we will have a new understanding of what to do. There is never a standard answer in life. The important thing is to maintain the courage to move forward in confusion. Perhaps "not knowing what to do" itself is the best place to start.
