    The workplace is never a place of warmth and tenderness. "The Buddha's Light on the Wall" portrays the love and pain of adults so realistically! 😣 What she thought was a comradeship was merely a bargaining chip in his weighing of pros and cons; the trust she wholeheartedly gave turned into a knife stabbing her in the back. Without lengthy setups, each chapter is a double whammy of workplace betrayal and emotional snub, so short and agonizing it's almost unbearable. Working professionals will find themselves deeply moved after reading it!

    Tired of those melodramatic, clichéd love stories and tragic misunderstandings? Then this heartwarming, slow-burning short novel is for you! Title: *Someone Is Waiting for You to Come Home*. Signed and already updated with over 50,000 words, the full text is around 100,000 words. Short and easy to read, you'll finish it quickly. The female protagonist, divorced for three years, lives a secluded life in an old southern street, running an embroidery workshop and keeping herself isolated. Her only solace is the piano music that plays every night from her neighbor, the ancient book restorer Song Yuanzhou, ending at the second chapter. The male protagonist is reserved, gentle, and not good with words. He doesn't make grand declarations of love, but slowly warms her frozen heart with small, everyday acts: secretly copying embroidery patterns, clumsily learning to knit scarves, waiting long at the train station in the cold winter, and finally, his simple statement, "To love someone is to make them grow up," pierces through all the hidden emotions. The entire old street is filled with warm and kind neighbors; red lanterns, hot fried eggs, and small acts of care from neighbors gradually tell the female protagonist: she doesn't have to bear it all alone. This novel is completely free of angst, melodramatic villains, and forced harm. It's a slow-burn story where feelings develop gradually over time, with mutual affection and a down-to-earth feel. It's a sweet and heartwarming read that will leave you feeling soft and comforted. For those who are suffering from a reading slump after reading angst, this is the perfect way to slowly recover.
