The violence and collapse of his original family trapped Wensi in the haze of old alleys in Xicheng, Beijing during his boyhood. His alcoholic father accidentally forced his mother to death, and he died of a drunk driver soon after. At the age of eighteen, he was alone overnight, with no support. In order to get rid of the muddy past, Wensi placed all his obsession on architecture - he wanted to build a stable and solid world with his own hands and make up for the broken gaps in life. He relied on his extreme self-discipline to win scholarships year after year. He traveled all over the city as a tutor during the winter and summer vacations to support himself. He worked his way into one of the top architecture departments in Beijing, studied from undergraduate to doctoral degree, and finally stayed in school to become a university architecture teacher.
Qu Shengyu, who comes from a smooth and warm family, is the soft and firm light that breaks into Wen Si's desolate life. He keenly sees through the fragility under the other person's tight shell, and slowly dispels Wen Si's defenses with his well-measured companionship. All the members of the Qu family are open-minded and gentle, and use the complete warmth of fireworks to fill in the sense of belonging that Wen Si has long lacked.
This is a long journey of two-way healing: Wen Si relied on perseverance to achieve self-salvation and changed his destiny against the wind; Qu Sheng gave him a long-term preference to support all his uneasiness. The two went through more than ten years of schooling side by side, and finally got over the old trauma and built a smooth life-long path for each other in ordinary and stable daily life. The full text is realistic, with academic growth as the main line, gentle and inspirational, slow and heartwarming.
The first update is five chapters, and then I read one to two chapters every day.
Concept: Native ruins cannot define life, self-rescue is the basis, and preference is the light.
