My new novel, "Runaway Lovesick", is now underway. My next novel, "Old Snow Is Hard to Melt", is open for advance follows: [Limping, flirtatious small-town art teacher × obsessive, hard-drinking, washed-up model]
[Important: This story has a happy ending. Nobody gets a terminal illness.]
[Writing is hard work. Please support the official version on Jinjiang.]
This story features a [restrained, disciplined, ascetic doctor gong × beautiful, free-spirited, broken-hearted architect shou].
Ji Qingyou is a doctor and a control freak who even keeps her diary in Excel spreadsheets. She lives by a picky set of “three no’s” and is used to judging people and things with a “combined six-point score.”
Yu Qinjiu is an architect, a beautiful drunk who likes to do the bunny dance when she gets tipsy and force people to watch. Her highest standard for judging anything is “I like it.”
Yet it was Ji Qingyou, the taciturn, sickly one, and Yu Qinjiu, the most carefree and guileless one, who became woven into the greenest, most innocent years of each other’s lives.
At seven, Ji Qingyou was bullied and cried in secret. Yu Qinjiu rushed back from her grandmother’s house, planted her hands on her hips and scolded Ji Qingyou, then chased off the bullies. She pinched Ji Qingyou’s nose and told her not to cry.
At twelve, Yu Qinjiu got into a fight and came away with a bruised face. She raised her chin and told Ji Qingyou to patch her up, promising that nobody would bully her again.
At fifteen, Yu Qinjiu tried doing Ji Qingyou’s makeup and turned her into a little red-bottomed monkey. She laughed so hard her stomach hurt, and ended up in the hospital.
At eighteen, beneath dim, enchanting lights, Yu Qinjiu reeking of alcohol and blinking her beautiful, dreamy, upturned eyes, bestowed on her a tender, innocent kiss.
“You know, when a girl tilts her head back and closes her eyes…”
“That means she wants you to kiss her.”
That day, Ji Qingyou suddenly realized:
The alcohol she had always resisted was sweet after all.
*
At eighteen and a half, Yu Qinjiu went abroad and cut off contact with her.
At twenty-nine, Yu Qinjiu dropped out of nowhere and turned Ji Qingyou’s formerly bland but perfectly rational life upside down once again.
A new neighbor moved in across the hall. It was Yu Qinjiu.
Ji Qingyou went to a group gathering at a KTV, and Yu Qinjiu was in the room next door.
Later, when Yu Qinjiu lay beside her wearing a camisole, Ji Qingyou suddenly understood:
Sweet, boozy alcohol was the most addictive of all.
Later, Ji Qingyou learned:
She wasn’t the only one who remembered that kiss.
Yu Qinjiu had secretly kept many love letters from other people.
Yu Qinjiu had taken her high school uniform abroad and nearly worn it smooth.
“There are fairy tales in this world.
Just press your hands together when you make a wish,
and a fairy tale will come true. Your birthday wish will be granted.”
“I’ve always felt that friendship is more dependable than romance.”

My next novel, "Red Lips and Wisdom Teeth" (a separate story), is open for advance follows. Blurb:
Kuang Lai had been jealous of Xu Wentang ever since she was little.
As Kuang Lai’s grandma put it, Xu Wentang’s family was so rich it was as if they had oil hidden in their backyard. They lived in a manor behind iron gates, Xu Wentang’s mother looked like a movie star, and Xu Wentang herself looked like one too.
Kuang Lai’s family, on the other hand, had nothing. They lived in a concrete house built only a few years ago, Kuang Lai’s mother was a madwoman who ran off and left her daughter behind, and Kuang Lai herself was a little lunatic who was constantly up to no good.
But her grandma and Xu Wentang’s grandma were close friends.
So Kuang Lai had no choice but to play with Xu Wentang from childhood.
-
At three, Kuang Lai broke a bowl while messing around. She not only cut her own face open, but also left a scar on six-year-old Xu Wentang’s palm.
At nine, the adults joked that if Xu Wentang couldn’t find a husband when she grew up, it would be Kuang Lai’s fault. Kuang Lai bristled, planted her hands on her hips, and declared, “She doesn’t even want to get married! If she has to, she can marry me!”
Beside her, Xu Wentang straightened Kuang Lai’s white dress, which she had rolled around in until it was covered in mud, and played along with perfect composure. “Wife, your dress needs washing.”
At fifteen, Kuang Lai bravely stepped in to deliver a love letter to a senior student on behalf of a classmate who had a crush on her. The senior was so startled that she went to her best friend for advice.
Xu Wentang, the best friend, tossed the letter into the trash and tapped Kuang Lai on the head without a hint of politeness. “Kuang Lai, no dating before you’re an adult.”
At eighteen, Kuang Lai was still jealous of Xu Wentang.
Because at twenty-one, Xu Wentang was glamorous, attracting admirers left and right, and so beautiful she took everyone’s breath away.
At twenty-eight, on the first day Kuang Lai returned to her hometown in disgrace after her dreams fell apart, she ran into Xu Wentang.
Seeing her old nemesis, Kuang Lai turned and ran.
Before long, Xu Wentang showed up at her home to stop her. The woman who usually acted so docile in front of their elders was grinding her teeth in anger.
“Who was it that pinned me inside a closet and kissed me in secret on the night I came of age?”
The woman leaned close, her breath brushing against Kuang Lai as she tugged at her reddened earlobe. “Then you ran off right after kissing me, and stayed gone for ten years.”
“Kuang Lai, what exactly do you think you’re doing?”
-
Kuang Lai had always been jealous of Xu Wentang.
Because at twenty-one, Xu Wentang was rich. She had everything that eighteen-year-old Kuang Lai couldn’t have, including Kuang Lai’s love.
Theme: Becoming better together
This is the fifth time I have read this story. From the moment I was attracted by the introduction to being shocked by all the details, I think this is a warm, healing and happy story. "The Cutest Thirty-Year-Old Girl I've Ever Seen" I don't know why, it's obviously a happy daily life, but I want to cry every time I see it. Maybe it's because these happiness are hard-won, so Miss Alps and Sweetheart Nanwu should be happy forever. In fact, I think it is also a story of mutual healing. Xiaoyou becomes more and more vivid because of the reunion with Xiaojiu (just like Xiaoyou's words, "My dull senses become sensitive again because of her, and my numb life flows again because of her.") And with Alps, Lollipop and Hehei integrated into this big family. As for Xiaojiu, the painful memories of Nanwu in the past were gradually replaced by happiness, and the symptoms gradually improved. After that, there are their Alps, ordinary taverns, and their own Butterfly Nebula and the wonders of the universe. This should be the perfect ending in a fairy tale. But of course, the story will not be perfect at the beginning. In the first 30 chapters, after seeing the cautious relationship between Xiaoyou and Xiaojiu after the reunion, and after understanding the reasons for their previous separation, Xiaojiu's condition, and the reason why Xiaoyou couldn't keep Xiaojiu, I was actually frightened when I read on. What method and reason should be used to keep a person who is destined to leave. So I always feel that as long as there is an accident, this will become a dead end. But fortunately, the existence of miracles in the universe did not allow this situation to happen. As readers, we have a God's perspective that knows everything, but they are not like this. Faced with the problems that the two had before, every step is cautious, so really, Yu Qinjiu and Ji Qingyou have done a very good job. Of course, the most important thing is that the author writes really well, describing all kinds of details. (What impressed me deeply was that one time Xiaoyou took out the jar with paper cranes, saw three blue paper cranes and four green paper cranes, and then folded a new blue paper crane and put it in... It was really interesting. People. The other thing is the name! In fact, I didn't find that the two people's names were so consistent at first. Later, I saw that "there is no real empathy in the world, except for Yu Qinjiu and Ji Qingyou. After all, their names are completely overlapping like a miracle. Although the directions are the same." On the contrary, it is a miracle that can shock the soul." I looked at the name carefully and found out that it was really surprising.) The scene (the scene of Xiaoyou mixing the cup of sweet alcohol for Xiaojiu on the New Year's Day) made me cry. In fact, from the very beginning When Xiaojiu said that he was going back, Xiaoyou never thought that there was a possibility of leaving Xiaojiu behind, so he tried his best to leave good memories so that after Xiaojiu returned to London, it would not be painful to think about this memory of Nanwu) and the whole plot. (Actually, when I read this story for the first time, I felt that the two people should not be so miserable. The ten years of separation can be said to be the "end of the world", so I felt that after the reunion, the two people should live happily ever after and should not experience so much suffering. But after I read it again, I felt that these must happen, Xiaoyou was injured, Yu Muzhou, Xiaojiu's mother got sick... All It will happen that Xiaojiu's condition will slowly heal because of these things, and the relationship between the two people will be further resolved due to the occurrence of these things.) In addition, the most shocking thing to me is that I wrote about Xiaojiu often wearing a scarf. At first, I just thought it was a personal preference, but after reading the chapter about Xiaoyou going to London, I didn't expect that there would be another reason. (Actually, there are various details in the front that show that Xiaoyou went to London that year, but the two of them met. This was something I had never thought of. It was really shocking.) Before Xiaoyou's scarf came into Xiaojiu's hands, the owner of the scarf was Xiaoyou. It's really like the fate between the two people, which can never be separated. "An imperfect beginning will also have a perfect ending." As this sentence says, the beginning of the story of Xiaojiu and Xiaoyou is indeed not perfect, but I think that from the moment of their reunion, the ending of the story has already planned a perfect route, waiting for the two of them to set off. I don't know how to describe how much I like this story, let alone how much I like Xiaojiu and Xiaoyou, your bravery, your sincerity, everything. There are trillions of stars in the universe, and we cannot know exactly when a star will appear or disappear. But having a star that responds to you from beginning to end, I think, is the most precious miracle. Ji Qingyou and Yu Qinjiu will always be like this, each other's most precious miracle. Finally, and most importantly, I wish you happiness and happiness forever. The Alps in June are already waiting for you. I wish you a happy wedding in advance. (When I met you, I always felt that 6.1 In 2026 was so far away. I didn't expect that there would only be more than 30 days left in the blink of an eye. It's really, really emotional.)
