Clouds Unfurl, Ripples Stir

This is a well-worn story. I've only been reading original romance novels from mainland China for the past few years. I still remember the first one I read: Ji Qi's Tale of the Bird of Paradise. I have to say, that story had an enormous influence on me. For a long time afterward, I wanted to write a story on the same theme. I need to make two things clear: 1. Countless people have written about this theme already. I'm only putting down a story that took shape in my mind a long time ago, and I'm not breaking any new ground. If that's not your thing, proceed with caution! 2. After much hesitation, I've decided to say this: the story contains a lot of potentially cringeworthy elements, such as a wealthy, psychologically disturbed young man and his sister, who thinks she's cool and detached. Of course, the sister has her own weaknesses too... and so on. So, if you've read this far and still want to continue, please do. Thank you for your support. Here is the blurb: Life can be cruel. It always seems to arrange things so that old nightmares come back to life. I have to go home six years later, and I've run out of excuses. How am I supposed to face those memories? Not satisfied with this work. I'll revise it when I have time. Theme:
