    Reader note

    "Shen Zhiyi and Pei Songhe" is a contemporary romance novel full of emotional tension, blending elements of sweet romance, heart-wrenching love, and a "wife-chasing-after-the-wives" scenario, ultimately ending with a happy ending (HE). The story revolves around the two protagonists—Shen Zhiyi and Pei Songhe—depicting a complex emotional journey from misunderstanding to deep affection. Synopsis: Pei Songhe is considered a celibate god by outsiders due to rumors of his "white moonlight" (a term of endearment for a devoted lover), and the black agate prayer beads he always wears symbolize his "pure and ascetic" nature. However, the appearance of Shen Zhiyi shatters all of this. She not only reveals a hidden side of Pei Songhe but also becomes pregnant with his child. As the story unfolds, Pei Songhe gradually realizes that his feelings for Shen Zhiyi have long surpassed his initial possessiveness. In the snowstorm of northern Tibet, he prostrates himself ninety-nine times in the delivery room for Shen Zhiyi, his forehead bleeding and his eyes red, all to beg for her forgiveness and acceptance. However, Shen Zhiyi responds with "Leave the father, keep the child," showcasing her independence and stubbornness. Pei Songhe's feelings may have begun in a fleeting moment; when Shen Zhiyi stirred the wilderness of his heart like a spring breeze, he was already hopelessly infatuated. Their relationship gradually deepened amidst a mix of sweetness and heartbreak, ultimately leading to a happy ending. This novel is suitable for readers who enjoy complex emotions and dramatic plot twists; it offers both deeply romantic moments and heart-wrenching scenes, ultimately healing the heart with a warm conclusion.

    Let's take a look at this heartbreaking book. The author is an uneducated inmate who wrote this realistic novel while in prison, copying from the *Modern Chinese Dictionary* for several years. The author's own story is inspiring, telling us that as long as you're willing to work hard, you're never truly defeated in life. The novel tells the story of a young man with a low IQ and a cleft lip who is arrested for a joke. His mother, trying to save her son, is swindled out of money and sexually assaulted, ultimately leading to her mental breakdown… The author doesn't shy away from ugliness and evil, confronting human nature head-on: the psychological burden of physical disabilities is deeply saddening, and the mother's love is moving to tears. After reading this book, everyone will reflect on how they should treat their mothers in the future…
