[Two Male Leads + School Life + Two Top Students + Wealthy Families + Light Ensemble Cast + Second Chance at Love]
Intermittently sweet-talking, devoted attack vs. gentle, thoughtful, effortlessly alluring receiver
Before Jiang Sui left for the capital, his grandmother held his hand and said, "Just focus on your studies when you get there. Don't be afraid."
Jiang Sui wasn't afraid. Raised by his grandmother, he had an unshakable calm in his bones.
His first impression of his new school was good, except for one thing: the childhood friend sitting beside him, whose surname was Qi, seemed a little strange.
The way he looked at Jiang Sui was strange, and the things he did were strange too.
Qi Wen had an online friend he'd known for four years. Nobody knew about it, not even his childhood friends.
They talked about everything under the sun, but never about who they were.
They were the most familiar of strangers.
Then the school year began, and Qi Wen realized that his childhood friend's new deskmate was the online friend he'd known for four years.
He hesitated, unsure whether his online friend would be willing to step out from behind the screen and meet him in person.
Before Qi Wen could make up his mind, the other boy spoke first.
"Qi Wen, aren't you going to get to know me all over again?"
His online friend gazed at him with a bright smile.
And so, in the fifth year of their acquaintance, the two finally met for real beneath the first yellowing ginkgo leaves.
Youth is a growing pain that catches you off guard. Jiang Sui would always remember that summer, filled with the endless chirping of cicadas.
It should have been the perfect season for them to meet, but instead, they used it to say goodbye.
I genuinely think the author is incredibly skilled at character development; everyone's personalities are so rich and it's so enjoyable to read. Yu Chuan, Jing Yao, and Xiu Ye in this book really reveal a unique and irreplaceable, youthful side of the three. And Sui Sui and Wen are so adorable... Everyone is so cute! I have a feeling there will be some serious drama later on. Oh well, but bittersweet stories are just so good! Whether it's sweet or angsty, I'll take it all!
It's really good! I read the author's previous book and have been eagerly anticipating this couple's story. They're the kind of characters I like, and I love how Qi Wen and Jiang Sui get along—it's so sweet! It's a [younger man/older woman] story. Looking forward to the rest of the story.
Well, how should I put it? I don't usually like stories with too many characters, but this book is amazing! Every character is so unique and vivid, they all really resonate with me. It's a no-brainer to buy, it's so good! And the author's writing is just so good, every scene feels so beautiful. I really, really love this book and plan to keep reading until it's finished!
It looks really good so far; it gives me a subtle sense of happiness. 😘
I started reading this book following the author's previous one, hehe... The writing is as good as ever, and very humorous. Looking forward to the next update, hehehe...
