It's so beautiful, the author is awesome, the writing is very good, although we don't understand everything, but I feel like the author understands hahaha, I even doubt that the author writes about his own experience [laughing][laughing][laughing] It's awesome, hurry up and update it The latest chapter is so exciting, please update it quickly, please [blowing kiss][blowing kiss][blowing kiss]
How come it's so beautiful that it's rated below 8? ? ? ! Help🆘It's so beautiful. I really like this kind of love between a mature man and a mature woman. Of course, the ending must be good. Realistically, my heart would really not be able to bear it if it was paired with a be.
I think the score can be 9.5 Or above, the writing is delicate, the characters are three-dimensional and distinct, and the storyline is coherent. The industry background is investment banking, and the workplace part is very professional (from my perspective as a layman). The characters' psychology and emotional lines are written in great detail, and the description of the atmosphere is particularly beautiful and very graphic. It's on par with my favorite "Early Spring Sunny". The characters are very similar: a senior boss, full of buffs for all abilities, but tough and vicious, and unable to love others; a newbie in the workplace, self-reliant, resilient, ambitious and unwilling to admit defeat. The man becomes interested in sex and moves forward step by step, while the heroine falls into trouble. The relationship is only in bed, which is a wrong start. A few years of pulling began. Because of his native family, the male protagonist has a cold personality, doesn't know how to love, and always speaks harsh words to hurt others, but his mobility is really maximal. He takes special care of Wanwan and is careful. He is always prepared and always has a plan B. He just does ten things, says the same thing or doesn't say anything at all. The heroine's personality is gentle and cute, but also a bit stubborn. She has low self-esteem at first, but she gradually wakes up later. I especially like how the two young lovers got along after calibrating their relationship. Mr. Cheng slowly changed and learned to express himself and not be tough. As Mr. Cheng went abroad for development, some problems arose between the two of them. Wanwan decisively proposed breaking up. This part made me cry! I feel particularly sorry for these two people, they both clearly love each other but are stubborn and refuse to give in. Some plots are very similar to those in Early Spring, such as raising a dog together, having sex in the workplace, and going to Tibet together, but the time points and details are different. In short, I like it very much, "That man taught me to grow, that girl taught me to love", and I will like it again and again! (Personally, the only shortcoming is that the way male leaders speak in the workplace is very similar. Maybe the author prefers parallel sentences. Whether it is a meeting or a conversation, the tone is more similar, and he also prefers to say first, second and third. It would be even more perfect if he could change it and write out the differences between each person!)
I think the beauty of this book is not mainly about whether the relationship between the two protagonists is sweet or not. On the contrary, in comparison, the relationship between the male and female protagonists is not so sweet most of the time. But why is it so addictive? I think it's because of this not-too-sweet sense of reality. Elite academics with high IQs work in a profession that is proficient in calculations. They are used to weighing everything in terms of pros and cons. This should be considered a subconscious reaction. I have used selfishness to evaluate the male protagonist many times in the book. In fact, it is not an absolute negative. The male and female protagonists are both people who insist on themselves. How to balance ourselves and ourselves, and dare to fully include another person in our own life track and life course. Elite academics will be more cautious than ordinary people. But people need emotions after all, and emotions must come and go, and give and take. A physical relationship without the seal of emotion will always be broken by its original urgency. The male and female protagonists went through a long journey and replenished the process to reach perfection from themselves to us. Of course, in reality, there are countless people who have frivolous relationships and then leave each other. Some people rush for freedom and ease for this light and airy life, while others want to expand the boundaries of their personal lives wider. Each choice brings a different life. The novel gives us an opportunity to see others, and also learn from others the wisdom of life that may not be visible in our own way.
He was like a beacon, illuminating her path forward. From ignorance to tenacity, he is with you every step of the way. Under his guidance, she transformed into a better version of herself. This love was deeply rooted in her heart, warm and firm. The author's writing is good and the story has a certain degree of professionalism. It is worth recommending!
On New Year's Eve, I received the author's final chapter. Thank you, the author, for writing another beautiful and touching book! Compared with the "Beijing Frost" I read before, this book has a stronger emotional pull between the male and female protagonists and is more professional in finance. I feel that the author should be an outstanding official (female) and has a deep understanding of officialdom and the financial industry. The writing style is good, the logic is rigorous, careful and there are few typos, and the reading experience is very good. He is a treasure author!
I have just finished reading this article, and I will give you my conclusion first: I highly recommend it. The author's writing style is very good, and there are no bloody plots or shocking plots. It is my ideal love, and it makes me yearn for love even more! So he was the one who hit! Come quickly! ! ! Hahaha I have read many other workplace finance articles before, but this one gave me a stronger sense of empathy. I seriously doubt whether the author is engaged in finance-related work. It really speaks volumes! Some of the English and Cantonese are hard to understand, thanks to the considerate translators! It can be regarded as learning while watching. Finally, I want to say something about Wanwan and Zhouzhou! Wanwan is really great. She can say no bravely and promptly when she discovers unequal feelings. She doesn't have to worry about losing herself in love, and she also has a successful career! It's my ideal self! Cheng Lizhou, the proud son of heaven, please allow me to describe him this way, will change himself a little for love and learn how to love Wanwan. I really want to have a lover like this (PS: I'm not a charming man, friends! I want to save my life! I just hope I can have an ideal boyfriend~) I just finished reading this novel during the Spring Festival. It's the first time to record my feelings after reading it. I'm a little nervous, hehe! I wish you all a happy new year and immediate success!
This is the best book I have ever read! The author's knowledge is very rich, and his life experience must be very exciting. It makes people feel very comfortable after reading it, and it is also very relevant. It has practical experience at work and has the flavor of fireworks in life. What I like most is that there are no exaggerated characters in this book. The whole text is very down-to-earth. There are always overlapping shadows with what we encounter in life and what we have experienced at work, which makes people look back on the past. The identities of the male and female protagonists are very close to us readers. They are a trivial microcosm of daily life and a kind of projection of everyone. The picture of living in this global village year after year, day after day, is really too beautiful and too desirable, but our lives all have their own trajectory, so let us join the hero and heroine in the book, cross mountains and seas, and cross plains, and walk our own long road of life steadily. See you again in the world, thank you to the author!
It's good to read. I really like the author's writing style. I also like Qin Shiyi and Gu Chaoxuan. I came to read this book from Glory. This book is also well written. The rating is a bit low. It is worth more than 9. It is a good book. I read it word by word. The writing style is also very good. I look forward to the follow-up development.
The author's writing style is very good. Moreover, I feel that the author is a very good and experienced person who can write such a story about such professional men and women of investment banks. Very knowledgeable. Unlike some novel authors who feel that they are novices, we readers seem to be very lackluster and unable to learn anything at all.
