The heroine, Qingyin, travels alone across thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, spending year after year among bustling streets and rural villages. She witnesses the turning of the seasons and the everyday warmth of human life, and experiences countless partings and reunions, joys and sorrows, and the rise and fall of fortune. As the long years drift by, she lets go of worldly troubles and carries a promise deep in her heart from place to place. No matter how time wears on, she waits with all her heart for the beloved she has been separated from for so long, quietly keeping watch for a long-awaited reunion.
So well written
