   ① It's Qiuqiu's book, and the ending is really regrettable. Without any prefix, the violence suddenly started at zero frames. In the end, the two people who loved each other could not meet again, and when they met again, there was only the cold corpse. ② It is also a book by Qiuqiu. I don't need to introduce this one too much. It's really easy to cry. ③It is a one-sided secret love between the heroine. She has a crush on him, but he falls in love with her best friend. The heroine's native family is also very bad, and she eventually passes away. ④In fact, this book basically has no emotional relationship between the male and female protagonists. The female protagonist suffers from depression, but she is indeed an optimist. However, in the end, she could not accept the death of her grandmother and finally jumped off the building. ⑤This book is a bit convoluted, but it is really good to read it slowly. This book has only four chapters and 20,000 words. The truth is revealed in the last chapter. It is not very sad but very depressing. ⑥ Is the first person. Chapter 12 introduces the male and female protagonists who know each other, love each other and cherish each other. ⑦The two cowards loved each other deeply, but they did not dare to say it. They did not understand each other's feelings until they were separated by life and death. His birthday was also the anniversary of his death. ⑧ Is the first sadistic novel I read. It is very short.

It said "Primary school student, I like you too." "Do you think I won't read the last page of the draft book?" "As stupid as a primary school student." "Chen Shuya, don't forget me." " - - In the middle of winter of the same year, the heroine was diagnosed with leukemia and passed away two months later. ⑨ The heroine was clearly in darkness but warmed everyone.
