   This novel, spanning over 100,000 words, is relatively realistic. It avoids the typical domineering CEO trope, focusing instead on the mutual support and camaraderie among couples amidst chaos, and the fickle nature of human nature. Set against the backdrop of the An Lushan Rebellion, the female protagonist, a daughter of a prominent family, is forced by her father to marry a man from a humble background. Later, after her father and brother die in battle, she is abandoned and can no longer support her husband, ending up in a valley where she encounters a wounded general. To survive in the war-torn landscape, they forge their own path, relying on others and becoming entangled in the stories of others. They endure numerous hardships, experiencing initial suspicions and misunderstandings, but ultimately, these are resolved, and the lovers are united.
