   I've never read such a vibrant book, seen such a vibrant person. It felt as if I had lived her entire life, from her past life to this one, witnessing her transformation from being bullied and weak to becoming strong and loved. It all felt like I had seen it with my own eyes. I'm grateful to the author for creating this book about Xiao A Wu, allowing me the privilege of seeing someone go from having nothing to being free and carefree, filled with hope and love. This wasn't about enduring hardship, being arranged for redemption, but about earning it all through one's own hard work and effort. After reading the epilogue, my heart melted. The image of someone being loved growing flesh and blood is so touching. Jiang Wu's subordinates, Xiao Jiang Wu, the five senior brothers (Elder, Second Elder, and Fourth Elder), Master Qing He, and the Grandmaster are all such wonderful people. I believe Xiao Jiang Wu will grow happier and happier with everyone. Furthermore, suffering is never something to be glorified. Suffering can only be endured, or overcome through one's own efforts. Those who bring us suffering deserve no forgiveness. Forgiving them is God's business; what we should do is consider how to send them to meet God. Furthermore, there are no saintly figures among the main characters in this book. If anyone takes a single grain of rice from me, I'll kill their ancestors for eight generations. Whom do I dedicate myself to? Whom do I sacrifice for? Only myself. Loving myself is the most important thing. Make time to love those who love you, but if you ask me to hurt myself for others, you're asking for death. Give me a choice, and I'll kill the person who makes me choose. This book has given me so many memories—the laughs from beginning to end, Xiao Jiangwu's personality infecting both the characters on screen and me. There are countless memorable moments. If there's one book I could keep reading, it would be this one. Thank you so much for your creation! 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
