Fellow fans, come on in. Three stars means readable, four stars means at least pretty good. Some great stories only got four stars because Jinjiang limits how many five-star ratings I can give, sob.

Translated by Google Translate




























































































In today's Lily articles, where cookies are everywhere, the author's writing style and ideas are commendable. I know there are a lot of harsh things in Lily Circle, so whenever I see some plots, I think that many people will criticize the article, but I hope the author knows that there are many people who really like your article. At the same time, I hope that the author can be as stubborn and brave as the second female lead in an unfriendly environment, and stick to what she believes in until the end. As a fan of your books, I sincerely hope to see more of your excellent works.
Social people are too social people. Ning Jue, our street lady, is a blockbuster as soon as she opens her mouth, scaring the decent boy Xie Yichen to death. Although this couple is suffering, they can't resist the surprise. At first glance, people are overjoyed. Obviously Xie Yichen is older, but he was so eaten up during the two first encounters that he was always stuck in a wheelchair. He was conquered by the child-faced wolf Ning Jue like an eagle. Ah, if only we could get along with him more sweetly in the early stage, I would be so happy. But if the teacher hadn't taken the initiative to decrypt it, I would have never seen the moment when Xie Yichen was completely sure that he liked him. After all, Ning Jue seemed to know a lot, and Xie Yichen pretended not to know those things without blushing and asked curiously. I was really deceived. The name of this book is so interesting. Ning Jue is like a jade, which is actually a stone. Xie Yichen originally meant a grain of dust but was endowed with divinity. There is a red dust under the lamp. The red dust is Ning Jue. She is at the bottom of society. The dust in the mansion can never be swept away. The red dust can also be Xie Yichen. She is like a born idiot who was sent down to the red dust to experience and realize enlightenment with scars. Going beyond the main character, there is red dust under the lamp also means: without the light gathering, even if the dust is known to be everywhere, it cannot be seen. The whole text can also be regarded as a lamp and a stage, as if the author and the readers saw the world of mortals together, and even created the world of mortals under the lamp. This is also the most strict one among the protagonists and society on txl among the few I have read so far, but I think it is very interesting. One is as careful as a hair, and gets along like a fish in society, but his feelings jump to his face without even realizing it. The other one obviously seems to be aloof from the world, but he knows what love is early on. Those unspeakable truths and prejudices actually create such a twisted story. To be honest, as a native of the Internet and a beneficiary of nine years of education, the flood of fear and fear about sexual orientation is really far away from me. The last time I saw it was in "The Crocodile Notes", most authors will lightly skip it, or choose to treat it as an easy to overcome external resistance, such as a few bad guys, as long as you defeat them, you can overcome it. Teacher Niu Er'er chose a path that is difficult and easily boring and confusing, that is, the path of reconciliation with oneself. Ning Jue and Xie Yichen not only have to face their own inacceptability, but also accept that the people they love cannot accept it. But are these objects that can be "defeated"? Just like Xie Yichen's coming out, the confession did not bring relief, but instead brought heavyness. The ease of confession was only left to others. She had to face the reality after the ending of the fairy tale. "Even if it is a just purpose, it is like a wheel that crushes people's hearts, and it is another kind of hostility." So I like this way of handling it very much, and I also like the plot arrangement where the teacher takes a step closer and asks again.
After reading "Good Things", I also saw a fanfic of "Good Things", which reminded me of Mr. Niu Er'er, the outstanding Lily writer. I only think that Teacher Niu's novels are very good at describing a kind of Wang Tiemei-style woman. Wang Tiemei doesn't need a character arc. Growth, awakening, and sublimation are all bullshit. She stayed up all night emo, hugged her head and cried, and tomorrow she will still be Wang Tiemei yesterday. You can't say that she sees the essence of life clearly and there is no need to be so noble. If you want to describe it, it is like a black gel pen, the kind that costs one yuan or ten yuan a box. It is very durable. You can use it to write all kinds of good, bad, and careless words, but you'd better adhere to the spirit of pragmatism, and don't expect to change its true nature by replacing it with a fancy refill. You can only stir up a little bit of waves in her life, and then write some ripples. So I would say exaggeratedly and presumptuously that I don't like the romance part of some of Mr. Niu's novels that much. From time to time, five words are blurred in my mind: pure friendship between women. This is the objection raised by my straight girlfriend when I teased "Good Stuff" for being a prostitute. But "The Red Dust Under the Lamp" may be the one I have read by Teacher Niu, and I feel that I can "eat" it the most. I still can't figure out why, but it seems like it was a long time ago that I read this article. Maybe I need to read it again.
I cried. I just finished reading such a good article. When I clicked on the author's homepage, there was a closing introduction. Great! Come back, big! You are a god. How would I survive the long nights without your writing? It's so good.
It's good-looking. The formation of the character's personality, the changes in inner growth, and the psychological explanation are very delicate. It is also connected with the story of White Snake, and it is told layer by layer. The intermittent and round-about bond between the two heroines is very rare. The description of the life at the bottom is quite realistic. There is no Mary Sue drama. Overall, it is very comfortable to watch. The aunt is really kind, open-minded, and decent, hahaha The logic of the plot is rigorous and thorough, like an oil painting where ideals and reality are intertwined carefully drawn by the author. The character creation is also quite good. The two heroines have unique and distinctive personalities. The other supporting characters also have their own colors and are not just tool people. ——I feel something after watching it, so don't blame me for being offended.
When I read many articles, I always overlook the gender of one of them, but there are always two women in the author's articles.
The tangled psychological analysis of the two people is so well written, it is the most engaging drama I have ever seen. The big work is very literary! ! ! ! Awesome, I like you! ! ! ! ! ! !
Great. After reading "Li E", I was afraid that this one would still have the same ending of endless suffering. Fortunately, it's not. It's great [Red Heart]
I like it very much... At first I admired Yichen's determination to become an immortal. After reading it, I realized with her that we still have to look back at the human world tenderly. I am also a very obsessive person, and I once pursued the false proposition of "being loved completely". Along the way, I saw the growth and changes of Yichen and Ning Jue, and I was unintentionally gently enlightened by Teacher Niu's words...
Niuerer, you are the best [change], I don't care [spread flowers]
