Guangming - Comment on "The Twelfth Second"
I could have endured the darkness if I had never seen the sun, but the sunshine has made my desolation even deeper. I was very moved after reading it and wanted to write something. Xu Han was unfortunate and survived in the world of hell. But I was very lucky because I met Zhao Yichen, who was upright and brave. The author said that what she writes is romance, and yes, although it is a suspense genre, what she writes is love, a very, very touching love. Zhao Yichen received a call to call the police. Xu Han chased him at the door and peeled eggs for him anxiously. She was afraid that he would choke on the way, so she asked him to eat before leaving. Zhao Yichen was in a hurry to call the police at night and ran down the stairs without turning on the lights. Xu Han followed him and turned on the lights for him step by step. When Zhao Yichen goes to the police, Xu Han will make chicken soup at home, put water in the pot next to it, and put some noodles on the side. But in fact, she doesn't know when he will come back. She is so prepared and waiting for him to come back every day. In order to avoid turning on the lights to disturb Zhao Yichen who was sleeping after returning from a police call, Xu Han cut his toenails in a dark room. Always turn the only fan in the house to Zhao Yichen. These plots really poked at me. You really have to love someone very, very much to do this. Even though the training was very tiring, Zhao Yichen still went to wait for Xu Han outside the examination room. After learning that Xu Han's shoes were scratching his feet, he tried to find a way to repair Xu Han's shoes. Knowing that Xu Han was in trouble at work, he silently helped her say hello and deal with work matters. He is very busy, but Xu Han is always in his heart. Two people who don't like to laugh often look at each other and laugh. All the details of the two people being together are very ordinary, without any excitement or bloody plot. I really believe that there is such a good love in this world. Both of us are the only ones in the world. There is no betrayal or harm. We always think about each other, give everything we have to each other, and respect and support each other's work or beliefs. There is no such thing as fairness in life. Xu Han, who was five or six years old, was already living in the abyss, but used his small body to protect his sister from harm. Later, she couldn't stand the abuse and ran away, leaving her sister behind. It's really understandable. She was just a seven or eight-year-old child who experienced torture that even adults cannot bear. She protected the old man, the little boy, and then her husband and daughter. In Xu Han's short life, he destroyed others out of survival, but he also always protected others. She is a person who lives in the darkness, but she always yearns for the light and does not sink because of it. Living in the gutter, she strives to become a lawyer and protect the beliefs in her heart. She spent her whole life's luck and met Zhao Yichen, a person she loved very much and who also loved her very much. Zhao Yichen spent nine years looking for Xu Han to find out the truth. It is unimaginable what Zhao Yichen endured after learning that Xu Han died and all the tragic past of his beloved wife. Her life was very difficult, and she loved him very much. Fortunately, he also loved her very much. Thank you to the author for giving Xu Han such a good Zhao Yichen.
Zhao Xishan is just a child. Every child is a little angel and should not suffer this. Maybe not talking is really a mental illness, which should be difficult to cure.
The two perspectives are parallel. The male protagonist is investigating the case after the heroine disappeared. The other line is the growth experience of the heroine. It is really depressing, but I have to say that the writing is very good and it captures the helpless feeling. The heroine can obviously be happy, but she is deprived of her rights again and again. However, the heroine has always been strong. After reading it, I feel very sorry for the heroine. It is also a rare subject in novels.
Clothes cannot set off a person's temperament. Although Hu Jiaying usually only likes to wear black, white and gray clothes, her temperament is incomparable to many people.
With the improvement of living standards, people's material needs have also increased. Although the number of owners has not increased, the number of cars has increased a lot. Zhao Yichen also feels that it is troublesome.
Finished reading
The heroine is really miserable. I have been facing darkness since I was a child. Every time I have a chance to live a normal life, I will always be pulled into the abyss again. The two sisters lived in unimaginable darkness, but chose the sunshine to redeem themselves.
So far, books are better than movies or TV series
Twelfth second
The heroine was really miserable when she was a child
It's too negative. This is the most bottomless novel I have ever read. It is so cruel and inhumane that there is no bottom line. How could a lawyer not know how to protect himself? I'll write some positive books in the future.
It's so sad, the writing is amazing, it's beautiful, it's so touching.
