Ye Fan's boyfriend is dead.
In the new home where they were about to get married, he jumped to his death right in front of her.
Overnight, Ye Fan found she had forgotten his face, his name, and his voice. All that remained was an oil painting in the living room, depicting a snow-capped mountain in Tibet.
It took her a few hours to make up her mind. Then she set off for Tibet.
-
On the Sichuan-Tibet Highway, Ye Fan met a man.
He always wore a pristine white mountaineering jacket and was as mysterious and free as the wind.
Ye Fan felt that there was something inexplicably familiar about him.
In an alley on Barkhor Street, he smiled gently, the sunlight of Tibet reflected on his face.
He said:
I will never forget this day.
-
Jian Yi called himself a wanderer held captive by the world, until he met Ye Fan.
The wanderer became someone's poet, too.

My novel, The Wilderness, is currently serializing
---Blurb below---
He came from that wilderness.
When they first met, the boy galloped past Zhuyuan on horseback, the wind lifting her red skirt.
Zhuyuan looked in the direction he raced. The boy turned back to look at her, his eyes clear and shimmering, as if they held only the mountains and lakes of the wilderness.
-
Later, she sat sideways on his horse.
The bells on the boy rang as he held the reins and led Zhuyuan through the mire, not letting a speck of mud touch her skirt.
So Zhuyuan asked: What's your name?
The boy stopped and looked up at her.
"My name is Yuanye."
-
After that,
the production wrapped.
She took him back to Hong Kong and taught him Cantonese, word by word.
The first sentence he learned was:
"Sis, I'm Yuanye."
"You're my Yuanye."

Theme: No matter how much time passes, never forget why you set out.
Ideal and reality collide, freedom and love pull together
I'm a little afraid of whether the text be is death or separation, and I hesitate to read it in one sitting. I once took a bus to the grassland and vomited from beginning to end. I could see the ordinary wind blowing on the grass, but an elusive hope emerged in my heart. Maybe one day I will have the courage to set foot on that road. I also want to go to the northwest again, see the snow-capped mountains, Qinghai Lake prairie, and look for love and hope. Thank you for your beautiful words, I hope more people can read this story.
"Don't cry, don't be afraid." "You live, you die." "There is always a snow mountain in this world that remembers your steps." "There is always someone who will love you without any grudges." I included the poems written by Jian Yi in my "Collection of Flying Birds"... (T T)
I also bought the ending first, and it was very uncomfortable to watch at the time. After hesitating for a long time, I still looked at the previous ones. When I saw this, I felt so heartbroken and cried (is that a bit exaggerated? (T~T) maybe I am more emotional, and I have been in a bad mood lately) It's the first time I read a road novel. It's a very special experience. It's very well written~ It's a pity that there are so few comments on the previous chapters. I want to comment but I'm not good at words and it's really difficult [face covering] If I have the opportunity in the future, I would like to visit more places, see more scenery, and experience more people and things. In the end, I hope it will get better and better, I'll log back to Weibo and pay attention during the holidays~
We meet but we can't know each other, we love each other but we can't stay together
I never read BE articles. I only clicked into this book because of a sentence in the introduction - a story that happened in Tibet. It's the place I long for. I don't know if the author has traveled along the Sichuan-Tibet line, but the description from beginning to end is very immersive, as if he is really there. The tears fell after I finally saw the letter Jian Yi wrote to Ye Fan. I was not sorry, I just felt emotional and sad. There is no way back for wanderers. Even if they reach the end of their lives, they should be buried in the vast world that no one knows. The reason I can sympathize with Jian Yi's struggles in life is because I understand that some people are like this. They don't want to stay in a cage called the city. To put it more romantically, they are born to be on the road. And Ye Fan is not a wandering traveler. What she cares about is the daily necessities in life. For them, even love cannot sustain them forever. But so what? He died in a home where she felt a sense of belonging, and she left in the place he longed for all his life. Their return journey was the same, and this seemed to be the best ending. It doesn't matter, Snow Mountain has witnessed their love.
I read two chapters first and then bought the ending before I decided to order the whole book because the ending shocked me. (Is this a spoiler?
I feel so sorry that Jian Yi never went to Sapu Mountain in his heart until his death. People like him should stay at Sapu Mountain or on the road instead of dying in the reinforced concrete Shanghai. But when I think about it, I feel that something is wrong. He is a person without a home, not Shanghai, and neither is Sapp. He is just choosing his own place of death. He should become a free person, but I never see freedom in him. Nothing can save him. Love cannot, nor wandering. I hope he can find true freedom after his death. If I read this article before going to Tibet, maybe I would also like to see Sapu Mountain
I feel like the author's writing has a very calm feel to it.
I really hope this book can be published
