   This is the truest fairy tale for adults. There is no perfect ending, no invincible protagonist, and no good luck from heaven.

Every step of Jiang Mu's growth is accompanied by choices and pressures; every breakthrough is accompanied by trials and games. The truth is not suspended, cruel and healing, written for all adults who are burdened to move forward.
