    I am a person with strong empathy and a kind heart. Unfortunately, too much empathy is a double-edged sword. What I feel is more pain? I have been a software designer and programmer for many years. I started writing last year and adapted my experiences into a novel. All my experiences over the years have been written into the novel. I know it's easy to make money just by writing some silly and mindless articles, but I write so that good stories can influence more people. The main character has upright views and is kind-hearted. This is the bottom line of my writing. I hope everyone can read my works, which include both long and short stories. I only write cool stories, and the ending must be happy, because I don't want to make readers sad. Romance, fantasy, fairy tales, suspense, rebirth, time-traveling system, traveling through books to chase his wife, crematorium, god of war, etc. It is all written in pure handwriting without any nonsense, relying only on the plot and delicate emotions to attract people. The core of my writing is healing. After reading it, it will arouse deep thoughts and make people want to read it again. Everyone go and watch it, I hope it will be of some help to you. I will keep writing
