   Chapter 87 "Family! Come quick!" The nurse's voice was panicked, the treatment tray in her hand crashing against the wall, metal instruments rolling all over the floor. When Jiang Yi rushed into the ward, Lin Wei was lying on the bed, blood seeping through the gauze on her wrist, like a red rose blooming in the wrong place. Glass jars were overturned on the floor, and stars were scattered everywhere, some crushed, some soaking and swollen in overturned glasses. "Doctor! Doctor!" Her voice was trembling, and she rushed over to try to hold Lin Wei's wrist, but the nurse pulled her away, "Get out of the way! We'll handle this!" When the light in the emergency room came on, Jiang Yi realized that her hands were shaking uncontrollably. She squatted in the corridor picking up the wet, soft stars, her fingertips stuck to the soaked pulp, as if something was squeezing her heart. One star was stained with blood, a glaring red, and she quickly stuffed it into her pocket, as if hiding a secret she couldn't tell.

    "That's not an illness, nor is it some kind of psychological abnormality. It's an obsession that hasn't faded in three hundred years, the grievances and hopes of a group of women, a steadfast commitment that transcends time." Zhen Xiaosi lowered her head, looking at the gray lock on her chest. Her fingertips gently touched it; the lock was cold, yet it seemed to pulsate faintly, concealing three hundred years of resentment and waiting. She didn't say anything more, continuing to work on the questions: anxiety symptoms, schizophrenia characteristics, stress response, counseling ethics, positive reinforcement, rational emotive behavior therapy… She worked through each question, her thoughts remaining clear until the last multiple-choice question. Her fingertips paused again, and this time, her eyelashes trembled uncontrollably. The question clearly appeared before her eyes: "Self-concept does not include: A. The actual self B. Perception of oneself C. Self-evaluation D. Derived from the phenomenon field." The correct answer was clearly A. Self-concept is always how one sees oneself, a subjective cognition and evaluation, not an objectively existing actual self. Zhen Xiaosi stared intently at the words "the true form," her heart churning with turmoil. Yun Xiaozhu's words from her dream echoed in her ears again: "We've waited three hundred years, what's a little longer?" Three hundred years of obsession weighed heavily on her. She was Zhen Xiaosi, the person Xiao Chen had waited three years for, Xia Linyu's nominal fiancée, the owner of the heart lock, the person Yun Xiaozhu had chosen, the hope for thirty thousand women waiting to open the door.

    I think this is the most delicately crafted book I've ever read. The author uses very clear experiences to portray the characters' personalities. Many details about the female lead, from her illness to her later transformation into someone who helps others, are highlighted. The experiences within the story bring about changes in every character, making each one unique. The friends and family of the male and female leads are portrayed in a gentle, flowing way, which is very healing. Furthermore, the author presents multiple endings—HE, BE, OE—and several epilogues, satisfying various emotional needs. The HE is absolutely blissful and fulfilling, and the love between the male and female leads is also portrayed very delicately, showing its development at each stage.
