   💔 Shen Shi'an's despair: "In this vast world, no one loves me." 😢 The female protagonist's fantasy of happiness was nothing more than a game played by the male protagonist. After the truth was revealed, she chose suicide. 🔍 A profound work that reveals the cruelty of love and the coldness of human nature.

    The first book is incredibly moving and tear-jerking. It portrays unrequited love with exceptional delicacy and realism, and it's based on the author's true story. The second book has a very sweet beginning for the male and female leads (though there might be a little bit of angst in the middle). The female lead is very realistic, but due to various reasons, they missed each other for ten years. They missed each other for too long, so ultimately, they could never be together.
