I especially like the dancing girl in the book, she is kind and cute. In contrast, the student was a bit indecisive and anxious. But this also makes the story more real. After all, youth is like this, full of youthfulness and immaturity. Overall, this is a book worth reading, it will make you feel the beauty of love and the warmth of life.
