University life is so real. I studied like crazy in high school, and I was full of anticipation when I first got to university. But reality hit me hard. The fake social interactions, no good friends around, no one to talk to, and my troubled love life made me live in misery every day.
I don't know if the ending will be a sad or happy one 🥺, but it will still make me cry until I'm trembling 🥺. This will be my favorite angst-filled novel 😢, and I definitely won't let you down!!! 👍👍
At first, I didn't understand Jiang Qing. I thought he was using Ji Mengnan as a substitute for Xiang Huan. However, he later realized he liked Ji Mengnan, and they were happy for a while, but only for a short time. Ji Mengnan's parents didn't understand her, and sometimes their actions were extreme, but I could sense that they might have some love for her. Jiang Qing's parents were divorced.
Because you're not by my side, I can only look at the moon, and I'm still filled with resentment.
I always felt that novels were too cruel, but reality is also like that. The "real-life cases" that I couldn't stand the most were so depressing that I couldn't breathe. "I know that's not my moon, but for a moment the moonlight did shine on me." Because of the similarity, I can understand the female protagonist. I hope that the female protagonist can be safe and sound in her next life!
What I fear most is something "based on true events". I hope Jiang and Ji can be together happily in another world. I hope Jiang knows that it was Xiang Huan who caused the sabotage. They hope their friends also know about Jiang's difficulties. According to the true story, the male protagonist announced that he was in a relationship with someone else when he was in his senior year of high school.
I cried so much! It took me almost five hours to read. I'm not usually a very tearful person, but I really cried my eyes out towards the end. I love this book so much!
I cried so much! I've read so many tragic novels, but none of them could make me cry like this. 😢😢😢 It was really good, and I thought the ending was pretty good, though a bit angsty.
I love this book so much, and I hope I meet a boy like Jiang Qing soon.
Help! I cried throughout the entire series from the moment the female lead was diagnosed with depression 😢
