At the foot of Zijin Mountain, a field of jasmine awaits the one who will return. The prose flows like the soft, lilting dialect of a Jiangnan water town, meandering across fragrant pages and bringing to life the turmoil of war and the tender romance of the Republican era. With a love that encompasses both passion and devotion, and a world of mountains and rivers at stake, Jiang Mengzhou uses his astonishing talent to win a lifetime by Xu Yuanyu's side. In the hundred steps of love, Jiang Mengzhou has taken ninety-nine. He vows to spend his whole life setting time right, one moment at a time, and holding tightly to Xu Yuanyu so she can never escape again.
When they first meet, aboard a passenger boat bound for Nanjing, Xu Yuanyu throws herself into his arms and saves his life. “Please take this note to the Jiang residence in Qingzhou, as thanks for the young lady’s kindness in saving me.” He leaves a calling card behind and departs like a passing breeze. Xu Yuanyu pinches the paper between her fingers and smiles, then strikes a match and burns it. When they meet again, at Third Miss Feng’s ball, he draws her into his arms. “Have we met before, Miss?” “A gentleman like you, Third Young Master, would hardly be someone I’d forget if I’d had the good fortune to meet him.” Xu Yuanyu flees from school in a panic and escapes back to Shanghai. Later, after her loved ones pass away, she says with icy resolve, “We shall not meet again until the Yellow Springs.” Much later, he takes her hand and stops beside the old town well where they once met. Two characters are carved into its smooth rim: Yellow Springs.
I imagined the scene inside Shanghai Beach and watched the enchanting beacon fire. Very pretty. The heroine is smart, independent and strong. It's not good to dwell on the past. People must learn to turn around when encountering difficulties. Otherwise, you will hurt three people and hurt yourself, and you will be tired of others. The ending gives people endless reverie
The concept is exquisite, the male protagonist is infatuated and decisive, and the female protagonist is independent and strong, but she is more tolerant to her family and friends than her lover. Fortunately, she finally moves forward side by side with the male protagonist!
It's good-looking, and the ending is unexpected but still in love. After all, this is a novel, so the era and characters cannot be extended. As far as the novel itself is concerned, it is quite well written, and it was no wonder that I was reluctant to let it go late at night. Like!
It is a novel about the Republic of China with a historical background and a very realistic style. The author has beautiful writing style, smooth prose, and the plot is ups and downs and fascinating. Yuan Yu and San Shao separated and reunited, and finally won a blank ending, giving readers a lot of space to fantasize 👍
The plot is intricate and engaging, worth watching! Except for the rushed ending, there is nothing wrong with it. It is much better than many novels with a score of 9.0 Or above.
Very nice! Why does such a beautiful article not get a high score? Highly recommended! Both the storyline and the characterization are great! Follow the author greatly. The ending was a bit rushed, I look forward to a sequel.
It's good to read, but I feel like it's not finished. Some of the "last words" in it are not explained in the end. The sudden stop at the end is a bit baffling, maybe this is just to leave room for the reader's imagination.
I still have more to say. First of all, the male protagonist is not the female protagonist's first love, but he is very infatuated with the female protagonist. The female protagonist is smart but too stubborn, but her stubbornness makes sense. It is because of this personality that the male protagonist is infatuated with her. The heroine is not a blind and humble love, she has a lot of personality. If it weren't for the male protagonist's persistence, the two of them probably wouldn't have gotten together in the end.
Good-looking, such a smart woman, but so arrogant
The ending is a bit unfinished, and the whole story is very detailed.
