Synopsis

The Past of the Compound tells the love story of two childhood sweethearts who grew up together in a residential compound. The heroine, Yu Cheng, and the hero, Gu Fangjue, were childhood friends who grew up side by side there. After Gu Fangjue played a prank on her and she fell into the water, Yu Cheng stuck close to him, and the two formed a special bond. As they grew older, their feelings for each other gradually became clear. Just as they were on the verge of confessing, Yu Cheng’s father died in an accident. A year later, her mother remarried, and Yu Cheng left the compound with her. Nine years later, Yu Cheng became a journalist and returned to Yancheng, the city where the compound was located, after a work transfer. By then, Gu Fangjue had become a designer of large domestic aircraft. He returned to Yancheng for vacation with his colleagues, and the two reunited at a hotel after a misunderstanding involving one of their childhood friends.

After seeing each other again, Yu Cheng was eager to rekindle their childhood romance for reasons she found difficult to put into words. Gu Fangjue, however, had once witnessed something that led him to believe Yu Cheng was already in love with someone else, so he kept his distance. After a game of pursuit and evasion, they finally cleared up the misunderstanding about her supposedly being in love with someone else and rekindled their relationship. Yet Yu Cheng often felt uneasy, believing Gu Fangjue had rejected her because he could not forget his first love, Ye Sirui.

After the vacation ended, Gu Fangjue left his old employer and joined another long-established aviation company, where he was put in charge of expanding general aviation services in the northwest. Yu Cheng, meanwhile, was forced to take the blame for a problem at work and applied for a transfer to Longcheng. There, she could be with Gu Fangjue while also investigating the cause of her father’s death. Their days together in Longcheng were sweet and warm, but Yu Cheng hoped to regain through Gu Fangjue everything she had lost when her father died, and this led to frequent conflicts between them. The presence of Ye Sirui and other admirers also left Yu Cheng feeling deeply insecure about her relationship with Gu Fangjue, and she sometimes felt lost. In the end, all those emotions reached a breaking point after the cause of her father’s death was uncovered. Only then did Gu Fangjue learn what Yu Cheng expected of him. He began to wonder whether she was with him out of love at all, or whether she simply wanted someone to take her father’s place and keep loving her.

Realizing she had put too much pressure on Gu Fangjue, Yu Cheng left Longcheng and returned to Yancheng. Gu Fangjue, troubled by his doubts, did not try to stop her, and their relationship fell into crisis, leaving them both miserable. Fortunately, with encouragement from their childhood friends, they came to understand their own feelings in time. They cleared up their misunderstanding, laid their hearts bare, and firmly chose to be together. In the process, Yu Cheng also gradually let go of some of her resentment toward her family and her past, and chose to make peace with herself.

Good-looking, good-looking, it feels like what is happening around us, the unexpected death of the father, the helpless remarriage of the mother, accompanied by love and friendship, Taotao slowly grows up under the temper of life, the storyline is flesh and blood. The male protagonist, Brother Dong, is a scientific researcher who develops aircraft. He has high emotional intelligence, high IQ, and good character. I like it!

At first, the emotional pull between Taotao and Dongdong was a bit sudden, but slowly looking back, I found that it was due to the long and steady relationship, which made their love only for each other. The whole book tells the story of life in a compound, telling each person's story. There are many twists and turns in the plot that actually happen because of love. The love of those parents who are short-lived. After reading the whole book, it is not so much a feeling of excitement, but as a feeling of experiencing the ups and downs of life with the people in the compound, and finally feeling relieved.

This is one of the author's works that I don't particularly like, maybe because I don't like the character.

You will appreciate it even more after reading the author's second work! And be prepared to read them one by one. Recommend! Appreciate the author's description of the differences between men and women's understanding of love; Appreciate the author's plain way of describing the weaknesses and shortcomings of human nature I envy the relationship between the heroine and her best friend! I envy the group of kids who can grow up together in the compound! Finally, I wish all lovers in the world to finally get married! Happy life!
