    On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the weather in the Northeast is freezing cold, and the white mist exhaled outside can form a layer of frost on people's eyebrows. Seven or eight o'clock in the morning is when the night is still dark and the sky is still dark. It is the coldest time of the day, but today is the first working day of the New Year. Many young people in the town who came back to celebrate the New Year choose to return to the city at this time. The bus station is crowded and the ticket office is full of people. Jiang Qianxi dragged her suitcase out of the station. She drank too much at a party with friends last night and missed the bus this morning. It was impossible to buy tickets for the later time periods at this time of Spring Festival travel. Fortunately, there are often private cars near the bus station to pick up private work, and the price is cheaper than the fare at the station. Some people who can't catch the bus or want to take a cheap car will take this kind of car. When Jiang Qianxi was in college in City B, she often took the bus in order to save dozens of yuan in fares, but after getting together with Gu Chi, he stopped allowing her to ride in such a black car, always saying that such a car was unsafe. One time she took advantage of the situation and was talked about by Gu Chi for several days.

    It's really, really, really pretty! Different from ordinary sadistic novels, it does not use very radical and deliberate words to express the misery of the characters, but uses plain descriptions. The autobiographies of the characters allow readers to deeply experience and taste them. Each character is very distinct, which is similar to The Legend of Zhen Huan. It has great staying power. You may not feel sad at the time, but you will remember it after reading it. I really recommend it!
