Yu Min is the most distressed one in all the novels I have read. She is smart and capable. She can live in the back house and take care of the housework for her lover. She can also work hard on her own and achieve good results. She loves willingly but not humblely. After realizing that this marriage has no end in sight, she immediately withdraws and stops entangled. After struggling with herself, she realizes that she still loves Jiang Chengze and chooses to give the two of them a chance in the future. She is sober, independent and capable. I hope she can love herself more in the future and put her own feelings first. In the early stage, Jiang Chengze was really a scumbag from Minmin's perspective. His inaction and escape brought the marriage to the worst ending. Later, when he switched to his perspective, he seemed to understand why he was like this. He didn't dare to take the first step, but love that people can't feel is not love. So after Minmin chose to give up on this marriage, he knew that he was wrong and tried to save it. Fortunately, we are in love, and fortunately we are not separated. Very nice! Sprinkle flowers, sprinkle flowers🎉
I read the entire book with tears in my eyes. This is the fourth Candy book. The plot is very delicate. The most important thing to note is that it is described from the perspective of the female protagonist at the beginning, and the perspective of the male protagonist in the second half. It is a very clear analysis of the emotional direction, and there is also a double cleansing!
It's very interesting. I particularly admire the author's literary talent. The loss and struggle are so well written. I will keep them forever and read them again when I have time. Fortunately, they did not miss each other. It would be great if they were given a child in the extra story.
I have read all the author's books, but this one is the most heart-wrenching. It has a gray tone overall. It is not very sweet, but it is a very realistic mature relationship between men and women. The visual of the heroine in the front is really heartbreaking to watch. Her tears are as if she is asking for no money. It is not abuse, but the kind of secret love, flattery and humiliation. It is as uncomfortable as looking in the mirror. Later, when you look at the male protagonist visually, you will feel that he is a bit pitiful. He finally fell in love with someone, but was used again and again to achieve his goals. Everyone's stance is correct, it's just a matter of misunderstanding and being short-tongued. A misplaced love. When a woman loves a man, he doesn't cherish her. When the man loves a woman, she doesn't want her anymore. So, cherish the people in front of you. No one will always be waiting for you. Fortunately, in the end, they got this misplaced relationship back on track.
◾[Urban + two-way secret love + sourness + chasing his wife in the crematorium + first torturing the woman and then the man] Smart, rational, calm and quiet female protagonist vs. Cold and reserved male protagonist. Two smart people fell in love, but unfortunately their intelligence was misled by their cleverness. They were too smart and thought too much, misunderstanding each other. The two of them were at odds with each other, and the road to love was very bumpy. The hero and heroine got off to a bad start, with misunderstandings arising from the beginning, and neither of them being candid enough, making the relationship sour and heart-wrenching. ◾Originally I didn't like to read a plot where the heroine falls in love with her best friend's ex-boyfriend, but the author's writing is good and the psychological and emotional entanglements of the characters are heart-wrenching. Moreover, it is quite rare in novels for the heroine to work hard for herself and like the hero and find ways to get close to him, so I continued reading. ◾The heroine is quite miserable. The heroine's best friend has two different things and needs the heroine to cover up. The heroine helps, but the heroine is misunderstood by the male protagonist. The best friend has two different things and the male protagonist thinks it was the heroine's idea. Then many readers also scolded the heroine. The innocent heroine was dragged into it by her best friend. As a result, the heroine was scolded and took the blame. The best friend successfully gained love. The heroine was really unfair. Because of these things, the male protagonist misunderstood the female protagonist from the beginning, thinking that the female protagonist was approaching him with a purpose. Later, a series of misunderstandings made the male protagonist deepen his prejudice against the female protagonist. Even if the male protagonist is interested in the female protagonist, he will still inevitably have various suspicions and doubts about the female protagonist, and even coldly violently violently violently violently violently violent the female protagonist. Later, the heroine had enough disappointment and despair, and she also experienced a miscarriage, and she completely gave up on the hero. She finally divorced him, and the hero chased his wife to the crematorium. After the divorce, the male protagonist stalked the female protagonist. After the female protagonist coldly retaliated against the male protagonist, she found that she still loved the male protagonist. After the two opened their hearts, they reconciled and finally he. The part of abusing the male protagonist is enough, but I feel that it could be tortured more. After all, the female protagonist has been wronged for two years, and the male protagonist has been chasing his wife to the crematorium for less than a year. It is still too cheap for the male protagonist. ◾Neither the male nor female protagonists are perfect people, and the novel also shows the true side of human nature. The female protagonist has her own selfish motives, a twisted and sensitive personality, and a humble love. The male protagonist is passionate but treats the female protagonist with prejudice, is silent and cold, arrogant and self-righteous, and loves awkwardly. The tone of the whole text is depressing and sad. The heroine's struggle in love and marriage is painful and sad. I really feel for the heroine. ◾The author's writing style is very good and his literary talent is brilliant. He analyzes the psychology of the heroine very delicately and can arouse the readers' emotions. It makes people want to put it down. It is a very interesting sadomasochistic novel.
The story of "Broken Mirror and Restoration" is very beautiful. The author's writing style is very delicate. I read it in one go and it was really special and touching. Friendly reminder: The heroine does not have a God's perspective. Read the article before evaluating the heroine's behavior and mentality. Marriage requires two people to run it. They don't know each other's thoughts. The heroine's devotion to love during this relationship is actually a little humble. The hero does not pay attention to her. However, the heroine pulled away decisively during the divorce. The last two people's pull is also very interesting. The author is very good at writing about people's changes in mentality. In the comments, some people will say something is wrong with the heroine, but you are from God's perspective, she is not. When I read about 400 pages in the middle, I happened to be listening to "Freedom and My Missing". It made me feel sad. I was still listening to the song for the third anniversary of the light night. Such a sweet song made me feel bitter after listening to it (I mentioned that I was sorry, I was just talking about my own journey)
Theme type: Marriage + Secret Love + Chasing Wife at the Crematorium + Reunion after a Broken Mirror Protagonist personality: Female protagonist: gentle and tough but scheming. She makes humble sacrifices for love in the early stage, but wakes up and divorces decisively in the later stage. The male protagonist: arrogant and restrained, emotionally slow. He misunderstood the female protagonist's motives in the early stage, and then exploded emotionally when chasing his wife. The story is based on the background of love before marriage and secret love, and tells the emotional entanglement between the male and female protagonists. The hero and heroine met by chance and finally came together after going through twists and turns, but their married life was not satisfactory. The heroine has always had a crush on the hero, but there was a estrangement due to a misunderstanding. It was only after many years that the hero discovered the heroine's sincerity. The emotions are delicate, the plot has ups and downs, and is fascinating.
I started reading the divorce part in the middle. Because it was so interesting, not procrastinating, and the descriptions were logical and not just a clichéd plot, so I went back to it and read the full text. The conflict between the male and female protagonists is very well written. The depiction of the heroine's determination to wake up won my heart. The heroine said it was a pity and her heart skipped a beat. Fortunately, it's a he. In reality, most of them are be. Follow the author, he really knows how to write 👍
I like it personally, and the rating of 9.7 Is reasonable. On the one hand, the author's writing style is very delicate, and on the other hand, the plot of the story is not abrupt. In fact, the content of the whole story is not novel. Most of it is about misunderstandings in the early stage and the crematorium in the later stage, but it is not conventional. Overall, there is no torture for the sake of torture, which is more reasonable. The characters are described in detail, such as the male protagonist's growth experience, especially the analysis of his heart from the male protagonist's perspective, which many readers from a God's perspective fail to discover and feel. It avoids the common problem of some novels of the same type - not knowing the origin of the love, and going deeper (which often makes me feel baffled).
It's very interesting. The heroine first met the hero through a friend's letter. They were attracted to each other when they first met. They played cards very well and their IQs were quite good, which made the hero have an impression of the heroine. Later, the hero and heroine tried each other out, but they were always misunderstood by different events. This also caused the hero's indifference after marriage. In fact, in the final analysis, neither of them opened their mouths. Later, the male protagonist chased his wife and set fire to the battlefield, right? 🤭 She deserves it. Two years does not mean that she has nothing, but she is still cold and violent. Male protagonist, you have no heart. Is the female protagonist right? There are mistakes too. I gave up myself for a man and had to compromise. I shouldn't have done it. Finally, the misunderstanding was resolved and both parties loved him. So we still have to talk a lot after we get together. Misunderstandings and misunderstandings cost us a lot of precious years...
