    This is a tragic love novel based on the difficult survival of real estate practitioners. It tells the story of real estate practitioner Yang Jie's growth after experiencing a series of blows in her love career. It's not a cool story about rebirth and time travel, but the more I read it to the end, the more interesting it becomes.
