    The struggles of the Republic of China era, the yearning for peace and prosperity—✨this is more than just a simple tragic story. No one survives to a happy ending; a happy ending will likely take at least another decade or more, and no one is lucky enough to live that long. ✨ Shen Changye always knew that the conman pretending to be his younger brother was a beggar, whom he treated like a puppet, tormenting him at will… But when Jiang Yushu truly gave up and became a lifeless puppet, he frantically sought out all the doctors in the city, kneeling and pleading with every god and Buddha… ✨The patriotism is overwhelming, the romance is heartbreaking, two people who didn't understand love learn to love—it's okay, help me up, I can still watch. 💖Romance in the Republic of China era is always fraught with obstacles, intertwined with national righteousness, national hatred, and personal vendettas—the scope is truly vast.

    My first impression is that it's a kind of psychological torture for the scumbag father. The second book has a rather novel idea: implanting metal into the body and then putting it in an MRI scanner. [Facepalm]
