This is a realistic youth romance with a full sense of atmosphere. It uses falling ginkgo leaves as an image throughout the whole text, blending the heartbeat, regret, miss and growth of young people into the details of daily life. There is no bloody conflict and it focuses on delicate and restrained emotional narrative. The story revolves around the youthful past of the male and female protagonists. The season of falling ginkgo trees is not only the beginning of the budding love between the two, but also a witness to parting and the passage of time. The good feelings I had when I was young are hidden in the small moments on campus: the glances passing each other, the ginkgo leaves quietly tucked into the pages of the book, and the hesitant confessions. The author does not use vigorous plots to pile up love, but more depicts the timidity, sensitivity and clumsiness of young people when facing feelings. You will miss the opportunity because of your self-esteem, you will be trapped by the distance in reality, and the love you have when you are young may not always be perfect, there will be regrets, and there will be reconciliation. The characters are very close to ordinary people, and neither the male or female protagonists are perfect characters. There are those who are young and impulsive, but also hesitant and withdrawn, who make mistakes, and realize after the meeting. Their emotions are not suspended, and many inner struggles are reflected through actions and details, rather than large, straightforward psychological monologues. The supporting characters also play the role of youth group portraits. The companionship and observation of classmates and friends restore the real campus and adult life. The biggest highlight of the book is the use of imagery. The fallen ginkgo leaves are not just a description of the scenery, they symbolize the grand and short youth time. Fallen leaves come back every year, but people have already experienced changes. Reunion does not necessarily mean reunion. The ending of some stories is not to stay in love, but to let go of the past and reconcile with the past self.
This is a modern realistic love story, not long in length, but full of overall atmosphere. The story begins with the heartbeat of childhood, and details such as ginkgo leaves and handmade tokens are very delicately laid out. The plot of running for each other desperately when they were young is particularly poignant. The obstacles brought by reality are portrayed realistically and restrainedly, without deliberately piling up abuse points. The two-way concern between the characters is very sincere. The overall writing is delicate and gentle, and the ending has a touch of regretful aesthetics. Readers who prefer realistic and heart-warming stories with a sense of atmosphere will probably like it very much.
The most poignant core conflict of the story is the desperate test brought about by secular prejudice: the passage where one of the protagonists is forced to be sent to a correctional institution is written with restraint but with great impact, without deliberately exaggerating the bloody and intense scenes. Only small daily details are used to outline the isolation, self-doubt and mental consumption in a closed environment. The text is not deliberately tragic, but the powerlessness between the lines is particularly realistic. Two people care about each other across the isolated distance. One party is struggling in a difficult situation, and the other party is running alone outside. Running in both directions is no longer a light love talk, but a support against the pressure of the world. The author uses fallen ginkgo leaves as imagery throughout the text. The autumn street trees seen for the first time, the leaves falling during separation, the quiet forest path after reunion, form a strong contrast between the gentle scenery and the cruel reality. There is no bloody suspicion or betrayal between the two protagonists. They always trust each other firmly. The hardships come from the outside world rather than between the two. This pure relationship makes the prejudice around them even more piercing. The writing style is delicate and restrained, and the psychological description is extremely accurate. It depicts the low self-esteem, fear, and forbearing love of people in difficult situations very realistically. There is no dramatic conflict in the whole process, and the stamina is hidden in the plain narrative. The ending left a warm feeling. After getting through the most difficult stage, the two were able to stay together peacefully. It is not a complete BE, but a realistic story with a complete scar. There are no clichés or abuse points, and all the hardships are rooted in the real dilemma of prejudice in reality. The writing is sincere and restrained. Readers who prefer realistic, two-way persistence, slow and delicate writing style can read it carefully, and their minds will be calm for a long time after reading.
This book was recommended by a friend when I was in a book shortage. I didn't have much hope at first, so I just flipped through it. After reading it, I found it to be really good. The author describes the emotions in a delicate and sadistic way, and the characters are so full of personality and personality. It's good to read! Looking forward to more good books from the author!
A ginkgo leaf hides the hot and broken lives of two teenagers. At the age of nineteen, they ran to each other desperately, thinking that as long as they escaped far enough, they could seize the future they wanted. But in reality, the pressure of the secular world and the obstruction of others came down hard, and the love that was filled with love was severely crushed by reality. The whole book has a strong sense of BE tragedy. The two-way rush in the early stage is so enthusiastic, but the pull and separation later are so heart-wrenching. After three long years of suffering, the two used the most decisive way to achieve an ending where they would never be separated again. After reading it, I couldn't put it down for a long time. The image of falling ginkgo leaves runs through the whole text. It is gentle and sad. It is a story that will leave you with deep feelings after reading it. It's a very nice novel, but it's too short. I'm looking forward to Youyou's new works, so let's work together!
Real, delicate feelings. All theories and techniques are designed to better serve those surging resonances, sighs or tingles. The author writes with honest emotions, and the content and words have their own power. Very well written and worth reading
The plot is so cruel. Cheng Ye and Lu Ming thought that love could conquer everything, but the reality was far crueler than they imagined. This article is eye-catching to read, unconventional, and the more you read, the more interesting it becomes. I read it in one sitting and couldn't help but read it twice. Recommend, support the author
The cruelty is real, not for the sake of cruelty, but because reality is so cruel. Just fifteen minutes, just fifteen minutes, and they can start over and be together forever. But, this is reality. Reality won't let you go just because you only have fifteen minutes left.
When the ginkgo trees fall, they are fluttering in the air, and when I think about it gently, my heart is filled with tears, just like when I fell in love for the first time, so beautiful that it makes people cry. Such a beautiful love story comes from the heart, concerns the soul, and has no gender. The author eloquently explains that it is so beautiful. On July 7th, in the Palace of Eternal Life, in the middle of the night when no one is whispering, I would like to be a winged bird in the sky, and a twig on the ground. If I want to talk about marriage, I will be afraid of breaking my heart... A rare love story from Tomato novels. Delicate and subtle, it is all the voice of the heart. . . . . . I watched it 2 more times and it was so touching. . . . . .
The author describes the emotional journey of the two male protagonists, Lu Ming and Cheng Ye. The relationship is so delicate and rich that you can't help but want to read it. It makes people abandon their prejudices about this different emotion and gain an understanding. This is a good book and is highly recommended.
