It is not a cool novel, not a love novel in the traditional sense, but a cold and honest mirror, reflecting the most secret dark side of marriage and the most fragile reality of human nature.
Recommended to all readers who are confused in love, growing in marriage, and looking for themselves in reality.
This is not just a story, but an in-depth conversation about love and responsibility.
Lin Wan and Zhang Muheng, two souls who once loved deeply but missed each other in the end, experienced the process of ups and downs, struggles, and awakenings in the marriages they chose after living together, breaking up, living together again, and breaking up again. The story is not deliberately sensational, but it stacks up suffocating emotional tension in daily details: a seemingly perfect wedding, an accidental encounter, a bottle of strange perfume, an unanswered WeChat message... These seemingly small fragments eventually piece together the complete cracks in the marriage.
If you have ever doubted "whether love is really no match for reality",
If you have ever experienced "feeling extremely lonely even though you are around me",
If you have ever wanted to ask, "Is marriage a collaboration or a redemption?"
Then this book will give you a calm and cruel answer.
It does not offer fairy tales, only reality;
Don't sing about eternity, just explore choices;
Do not forgive easily, but allow relief.
Some reunions are not to renew the relationship, but to say goodbye completely;
And some marriages are not for perfection, but for learning how to reconcile with themselves after being broken.
