Dear readers, for me, this book "Snow in the Hairpin" is a story written for "choice".
In this world, there is no absolute justice and no inherent evil.
Xue Mai is not a goddess, and Yong Ye is not a demon king. They are just a pair of people pushed to the edge of the abyss by fate.
Their love is neither sweet nor sadistic, but one sentence:
"If someone has to die, at least it's our own choice."
Yes, it's a BE.
But this is the path they took on their own, and it is a spring day they are willing to give their lives in exchange for.
The world is cruel, but they are gentle.
I hope you can also see those in this story
"The light that is clearly afraid and painful, but still willing to move forward."
If you can remember a sentence, a scene, or a name,
That's the best thing about this book.
Thank you for being willing to bear witness to their stories.

Here's a synopsis of the story:
There is no wind in the summer night, but there is the sound of snow.
The people in Xuedu were all used to the sound like a hairpin striking a jade face. Only Shen Lingxue, an orphan girl from the lamp shop——
Amidst the sound of snow, I had a splitting headache and nightmares.
For ten years, she did not know her surname or where she came from. Only a broken hairpin accompanied her in her life in the quietest corner.
Until one day, a gentle and restrained young official stepped into Tingxue Ferry.
Song Mingzhan claimed to be here to investigate the case, but in fact he had the same origin as the sound of snow——
He is the successor of the Evernight Vein, and his destiny is to kill the "Snow Vein Container" with his own hands to prevent the seal from collapsing.
When he saw Shen Lingxue for the first time, the Blade of Eternal Night ached in his body.
——The snow veins are awakening, the seal will be broken, and the world will be cracked.
——And she is the source of all disasters.
With the vision of corpses in the river, the pursuit of the return fire messengers, and the reappearance of the old case of Shen's family extermination, the suffocating truth emerged:
Shen Lingxue is not an orphan, but the "Snow Vein Seal Core" sent away by the sea of fire and blood array ten years ago.
She is alive - it means that the Xuanyuan seal is aging;
Only by dying can the world survive.
Everyone told her: "You were born to die."
Only Song Mingzhan violated destiny for the first time.
"If you must die, then I will accompany you."
The fate of the four people is entangled, and the disputes among the three lines continue.
Snow poison breaks out, eternal night loses control, returns to the fire for sacrifice...
The world is heading towards extinction bit by bit.
In the end, the gap in Xuyuan opened wide, the three meridians vibrated, and everyone's sword tips pointed at her at the same time.
She asked: "If I don't want to die and I don't want to kill everyone in the world, is there any way out?"
Song Mingzhan said: "Then it's up to us to end all this."
So, at the last moment when the world collapsed——
Xue Mai and Yong Ye stepped into the virtual abyss side by side, sealing the abyss with their bodies in exchange for spring in the world.
From then on, there was no wind or snow when listening to the snow, and the world was stable.
The world only remembers that the disaster was put down, but they don't know that two people walked from the bridge into the abyss.
Only a very light "hairpin knocking on the snow" occasionally sounded from under the bridge.
That was the last sound they left to the world.
Intention: When the world pressures people with fate, people can still choose their own destiny.
