Reader comments
This is the first electronic version I have read. I read 22 chapters in one go. I like it very much. Some of the things in it are very real and a little cruel. Just like Fan Zike's inner monologue in it, "I have met many people, eaten many times, moved many times, traveled to many different cities, talked to many people, and even said polite words to many people and never met again." I was quite touched when I read this paragraph. Maybe I have also experienced this. To gain something, you must lose something, but there will also be gains in this adversity, such as the spirit of not giving up, the skills to work hard to not be eliminated, etc. We should thank ourselves and hope to really like ourselves. They are all experiences and growth.
I like Fan Zike, come on
A woman who dares to be alone and can defeat loneliness. She has natural domineering and innate pride in her bones. She is strong and soft at the same time, with the wildness of a tiger and wolf and the gentleness of a cat. As for which side of her to show, it all depends on who is watching. Thanks for meeting.
It's really beautiful
It has inspired a lot of people born in Generation Z. I have also read "The Distant Savior", Liu Yu, and "The Ming Dynasty". I feel very familiar with some of the words and sentences and the sources of opinions in it. I feel that someone has finally used a story to sort out some of the confusing points in my past. I guess that Fan Zike has more or less the experience of the author's sister, but I don't think I have long-term overseas study experience. As the instructor said, I lack some global thinking. Because of the two sets of rules, my life is a bit awkward. I always naively hope that maybe I can find a time and space in the future where there is no separation between the two sets of rules, so that people can live a simple, real and pure life.
I just read the first chapter, and I was hooked by Li Zhiyu's rhetoric of barbarism and breaking traditional rules. It's rare to encounter such a high-level book. I read it and was so happy that I couldn't sleep tonight.
The legendary growth process of the business queen generation is not to be missed.
Being with Lu Zheng helped Fan Zike broaden his horizons, and Fan Zike also grew a lot.
The writing is great, very real and realistic at the same time. I really learned a lot. I am very happy to discover this book and look forward to the update.
