Unless you're the type to cry excessively, you won't cry much at the beginning, but you'll feel a bit choked up, like you're stuck between a rock and a hard place. Then, during the really angsty parts, you might burst into tears. That's what happened to me. I finished it in about half an hour; it's really, really short. I recommend you check it out, because short, angsty stories like this are actually hard to find (๑•́ωก̀๑).
This is the most captivating book I've ever read. It taught me what it feels like to love to the point of self-doubt. I used to believe that all love stories have happy endings, but that's not always the case. What I thought remained just that—a thought. The author writes very well; I think it's exceptionally well-written. (Don't lose yourself in love. As the old saying goes, forced love is never sweet, which means don't love someone who doesn't love you back.)
I cried throughout the second half of the book. It's a really heart-wrenching and wonderful read, and I highly recommend it. If the male lead had trusted the female lead even a little, the ending wouldn't have been like this. You have to bear the consequences of your own actions. If there is an afterlife, I hope you can all cherish and love the people in front of you!
It's so heartbreaking, but I really love it! The three best words for life: "After a long separation, we are reunited and our friendship is back to normal. It was a false alarm." But there wasn't a single phrase for "lost and found". Losing something is easy, but getting it back is incredibly difficult.
Waaaaah~ I just finished reading it, it was so heartbreaking! I'm the kind of person who easily empathizes with others, and when I saw the female lead bleeding as she climbed down the stairs, my heart ached so much, and I cried all over my pillow. 😭😭😭 The author wrote so well, I hope that in her next life, Shen Siyin will meet someone who cherishes and loves her.
I've read so many sweet romance novels, now I'm switching to something angsty. This novel is truly heart-wrenching, but I still finished it. The female lead is so pitiful, so devoted. I once read a quote in a book: Cherish friendship, family, love, and every genuine affection around you. Don't wait until you lose something to realize its value.
It's very touching, and it's one of my favorite short stories. The plot is well-structured and easy to understand, with many heart-wrenching moments. In the female lead's era, her actions could only be described as stubborn. She and the male lead were married for seven years, and he never said he loved her, nor did he ever treat her with tenderness.
May 15, 2022 I hope Ms. Shen Siyin will meet someone who loves and protects her. I hope you'll live for yourself this once, and remember to smile more. You have dimples when you smile, which are really beautiful! You must meet a girl named Chu Qingwan! I believe you two will definitely become best friends. I hope you have the love of your father and mother, and become a beloved Miss Shen!
I suggest preparing plenty of tissues; it was so emotionally intense I could hardly breathe. I recommend watching it at night, as crying during the day is a bit embarrassing. I recommend watching it all in one go; it's about an hour long. I finished it in 54 minutes. Highly recommended!
Don't let the low rating fool you, this book is truly excellent. And despite its short length, every chapter is a gem 💕. This book deeply resonated with me after reading it 🥺🥺🥺
