Each article has its own unique style. This one has a light and breezy feel to it, narrating the ordinary aspects of life while simultaneously telling a captivating story. I look forward to more updates of such wonderful works and stories. (The chapter numbers for chapters five and six seem to be incorrect.) [Bookmark]
There's no violence in this story, so you can read it without worry. It simply depicts two people gradually growing closer and eventually possessing each other. Their way of expressing love is simple, like a Platonic relationship—not driven by desire, but by mutual companionship, simple and beautiful.
The pacing is very comfortable, but they didn't show the confession process (I really want to see it, I can only imagine it). I think it might be because the "Good Afternoon Greetings" are all very gentle, so showing that would make it different, hehe, just guessing. Anyway, it's very good, I like it, and it's very sweet.
This book is a breath of fresh air among Tomato's works. Although short, it's complete in every aspect, with delicate emotions and a very healing and heartwarming feel. 💕💕💕
The biggest feeling this book gave me was peace. It wasn't about shipping a particular couple or watching a dramatic love story. The two people gradually got to know each other and started living together. Those unintentional touches and casual words felt very comfortable and real.
My feelings are so complicated. I like it, I'm sad, I'm at peace, I'm hopeful, I'm disappointed... It's all so complex. I want to find something to let go of these feelings, but songs won't do, people won't do... I can't put it into words. It's like sipping tea; one sip, and there's bitterness, a hint of spiciness, sweetness, and a lingering aftertaste...
It's truly a wonderful book! It's another great read after "Warm Tide," "Long Summer," and "Taming Zongbo." After finishing it, I felt a deep sense of peace and connection. Perhaps we, living in a fast-paced concrete jungle, desperately need this kind of slow-paced, simple life. From now on, Dali has become another place I want to visit.
The whole book is calm yet warm. Unlike passionate, undisguised love, this kind of warmth slowly flows into your body. To be honest, I didn't get enough! 😢 I'm planning a second read.
How come no one's reading such an amazing book? The writing is incredibly delicate, the emotions are subtle yet intense. A truly great book!!! This is SO SO SO SO good!!! How come no one reads such a great book?!
The writing is truly beautiful.
