   A very heartwarming book. The author's writing is excellent, delicate and realistic, and the characters are all very lively. I finished it in one go. The sweet parts were sweet, and the heart-wrenching parts brought me to tears. The female lead, Changjun, is truly a strong girl who believes in the light. It also reminded me of my own teenage years. I hope all children are lucky enough to meet Teacher Shi instead of Teacher Dai. And to those who do meet Teacher Dai, please believe in the light and stay true to yourself. Be brave and be yourself. Well written, Xiaobai is very warm. ❤️❤️❤️
