    I'm recommending this book, haha, just to give the author some support. It's a steady, step-by-step development, originally intended as another practice piece, but he got carried away and continued writing. It's pretty good so far, no major flaws. The main characters are relatively young, and everything subtly changes their families' circumstances, making it very heartwarming. There aren't any truly awful characters yet. Everyone has their own mission, it's just a matter of when they appear! Don't rush it (there are quite a few Sichuan and Chongqing accents, so it might be a little difficult to understand initially, but you should be able to comprehend it; it should be especially suitable for the Southwest F4).
