I feel that neither of the two male protagonists is very powerful but not a very ordinary book, but it is a double male protagonist: bar owner × coffee shop owner. At the age of thirty-two, Zhu Jingru only understands what love at first sight means. He was like a wild fire, determined to burn through this silent old house in Bai Qinglin. But then the fire got out of control, and he realized that the wandering wind fell in love with the lonely cypress tree, and he would either stay or take him away. One is bohemian and the other is cold and distant. Stay, or I will go with you. Who will surrender first in this fire?
