    [Tags] Dual Male Leads | Long-Awaited Reunion | Tender Pull-Ups | Urban Atmosphere A brief autumn rain in Lijiang, a fleeting glance, and years of separation are revealed. He went to their appointment alone, believing that only he couldn't let go of the feelings he had for her back then.

    It's here. The packaging is nice, I'll add it to my bookshelf. The pacing isn't too fast. It seems like a male-oriented cultivation novel, but it's actually a closeted gay romance novel from Jinjiang Literature City. Two male leads, both with amnesia. A broken relationship mended. A pseudo-substitute story. The interactions between the top and bottom are entirely hard-boiled in the early stages, and the romance develops slowly. The bottom male lead is a cunning villain, while the top is a righteous and domineering leader who has lost his memory and becomes the bottom's servant, constantly bullied by him. They were a couple before, but both lost their memories, and the villain even went undercover in the righteous faction. It's unclear what will happen after they regain their memories.
