A reader's guide: Feel free to pick whichever story arcs you like. The author loves pure sweetness as well as sweet-and-angsty romance.
1. A Journey to the Mountains and Seas Xiao Lingyin × Liu Suifeng Self-indulgent, melodramatic version
The hatred of a murdered family can never be avenged enough.
Xiao Lingyin, a little ray of sunshine who could drive anyone up the wall, × Liu Suifeng, a gloomy ghost of a man who'd have to repay her with love if she annoyed him to death.
The innocence you nurtured in love is the sweetest candied fruit in the world, and also the most poisonous wine.
I cherish it, and hate it.
I destroyed it, and regret it...
2. My Journey to You + Moonlit Reunion
Cui Lingyin × Gong Yuanzhi The irresistible older-sister/younger-brother romance
My brother brought home a bride for me...
Lingyin × Xizai + Jiling
