    This is an incredibly captivating novel. The writing is superb, the plot is compelling, and the character's frail health is on full display. The beginning is genuinely angsty, both physically and emotionally, but it's very enjoyable to read, with a twist later on. His frail health is evident in his seemingly terminal illness; he coughs up blood almost daily. However, he is incredibly resilient and strong-willed. He is also intelligent, kind, and clever. As a deposed monarch, Yan Yu is frail and sickly, nearing the end of his life. Yet, for his country and his subjects, he is willing to persevere. Every time it seems like Yan Yu is about to die, no matter how difficult or painful, he persists. He possesses a tenacious and indomitable spirit, like a snow lotus growing on a harsh, stormy mountain—pure, aloof, and resilient, with his own unique integrity.

    This author writes exceptionally well. The first novel was one of the best among the high-ranking official romance novels that got me hooked. The author also updates their Weibo with scenes from the novel that closely match the characters' lives. It was the first time I felt so well taken care of as a reader. The protagonist of the second novel is the younger brother from the first one. The author didn't force a happy ending. What moved me the most was that even though she knew they couldn't be together, the female lead, Yao Yao, still took the initiative. Yes, life is only about 30,000 days long, so as long as you don't have any regrets, that's enough. So I'm really satisfied with this ending. What I can learn from is that the female lead is career-oriented and always thinks about doing what she likes on her own, no matter what.

Unaware of his sweaty palms, she countered by asking if he had a crush on her. Her hands trembled, and she tried to remain calm behind her back. His ears turned red, and his heart pounded uncontrollably. He seemed about to pull something out of his pocket, but she, like a coward, ran away. He transferred schools, and they thought they would never be entangled again. In college, she heard that familiar voice being confessed to by the school beauty. He told her she was his girlfriend, but then said she was just a shield. Enraged, she publicly insulted him. Both of them were torn between love and hate, suffering immense pain. Torn between bitterness and despair, everyone said she was lucky enough to be ordinary and even rejected the school heartthrob. She ran away arrogantly, unaware that her mother's heirloom, a yellowed pearl hairpin, was missing. She cried as she looked back, only to see him holding the hairpin and giving it to her.
