Synopsis

"Returning from the Sea of Love" is one of the representative works of Liu Yunruo, a master of popular novels in the Republic of China. It is set in the French Concession in Tianjin at the beginning of the 20th century and outlines an urban style painting of joys and sorrows in the floating world. The story revolves around the emotional entanglement between young Chao Zaiwu and two women: on one side is his fiancée Qianyi, who has a rough life experience, but their deep love is repeatedly hindered by worldly pressure and poverty; on the other side is his old love Meng Xiaoying, whom he meets again ten years later. At the same time, Zai Wu's sister Ying Qian, in order to help the family tide over the difficulties, did not hesitate to conceal her identity and stepped into the dance hall, but was humiliated by the playboy; the old servant Zhao Shun cruelly sold his granddaughter Xiao Lian in order to repay his kindness, causing a series of turmoil. The writing style of the novel is delicate and vivid. It not only describes the struggle and perseverance of men and women in the sea of love in troubled times, but also depicts the chivalry and sadness of small people in the city. A feasting dance hall, a fun venue with hidden scheming, and a struggling family - multiple scenes are intertwined, unfolding an ukiyo-e of the Republic of China where love and hate are intertwined, and human nature is ups and downs.
