[Two-way trauma ✘ Mutual redemption] [Beauty abandoned son ✘ Island boss] [Fragile Starlight ✘ Cold-faced hunter] [Looking for candy in the glass slag] [Wife-chasing crematorium ✘ The wall is torn down]
He is an abandoned star, shining weakly but stubbornly. He's so good-looking.
Looking good is a gift and a curse.
Xin'an has known since she was a child that her face can open all doors. But behind every door, there is a person standing, waiting to exchange him for something. Used, betrayed, used as a tool - he no longer trusts anyone.
Until I met him.
He handed him a pack of tissues, not because of his face, just because he was crying.
But he is Lin Zeyu. A person who only talks about interests and not about feelings.
They signed a contract that he would be his "companion" and he would be his refuge. Everyone said it was a deal, including themselves.
But the human heart is not a contract.
When he gave up family marriage to save him, when he put the choice in his hands, when he said "I don't want anything, I just want you"——
Should he believe it?
This is a story about trust and courage.
Before meeting you, I didn't believe in light.
After meeting you, I wanted to try to tear down that wall.
They searched for each other's light in the darkness, and finally discovered that the other party was the shore.
Reader comments
The story is set in Chang'an in the late Tang Dynasty, weaving a beautiful picture of intrigue, suspense and affection.
With delicate and dense writing, the author unfolds the sad epic story of Hua Ran, the orphan of the deposed prince, and Liu Xun, the orphan of the exterminated family, who redeem each other and survive side by side in the blood feud in the small teahouse called "Cicada House". The most moving part of the novel is that it perfectly blends the grand and heavy historical conspiracy with the subtle and profound personal emotions - the bloody shadow of the tribute tea case, the secret contacts of the old East Palace, and the invisible oppression of the three princes' forces are like swords hanging from the ceiling, constantly questioning the survival wisdom and humanity of the two teenagers in desperate situations. The emotional bond between Hua Ran and Liu Xun, which began in adversity, goes deeper than blood, and transcends life and death, has become stronger and more pure through crisis and temptation. Like a firefly in the dark night, it weakly but stubbornly illuminates the thorny road ahead for each other. The author's textual research and description of the Tang Dynasty's urban scenery and tea ceremony magic are meticulous, the narrative rhythm is relaxed and moderate, and the suspense is intertwined. Within the framework of historical fiction, he completes a profound inquiry into loyalty, protection, and the true nature of human nature.
