[The print edition is now available for preorder. It includes a new exclusive bonus story. See Weibo @Mu Tianw for details.]
[My next BE novel will be Bitter Branch]
Ever since they were children, Chu Luo has hated her neighbor, Jiang Chi.
She hates that he's handsome and has so many people who like him. She hates that he's exceptionally talented and always in the spotlight, and that he does everything well... She also hates that he has a happy family, loving parents, and perfect health. He's nothing like her.
Anyway, Chu Luo could name a whole host of reasons to hate Jiang Chi.
When Jiang Chi was seventeen, he got into a car accident on his way to a qualifying competition.
As soon as Chu Luo heard, she ran straight to the hospital. Her skirt whipped in the wind. She had never been more certain of her feelings than she was at that moment. She thought that although she hated Jiang Chi the most, she also loved him the most.
Thankfully, after Jiang Chi recovered, the two of them got together.
Their childhood-sweetheart romance made everyone envious.
That was how it should have been, wasn't it?
If Chu Luo hadn't found the words she'd written on the back of a photograph, that would have been how their story ended.
“...By the time I was willing to admit that I really liked him, I realized my feelings had already expired.”
-Jiang Chi, our story wasn't good enough, and it didn't last long enough.
-But Chu Luo still wants to reach Jiang Chi's sun.
*Unrequited love with a BE ending

My next BE novel, Bitter Branch, is available to preorder
Blurb:
Before winter arrives, the trees along the roadside need their branches trimmed, leaving them bare as they wait for new buds to sprout in spring.
Her eighteenth year was like the last branch to be cut down.
When it hit the ground, it was bitter to the core.
Theme: Love yourself
A Chi didn't come to pick up Luo Luo, but when Luo Luo woke up for the "second time", A Chi came. Did Luo Luo actually not wake up before (? It was a dream, because of this dream, she woke up (? A dream within a dream (?
Could this all be a dream? Will Luoluo be asleep all the time?
Ah ah ah, so it turns out this is all a dream. If I guessed correctly, Anne is a person with unrestrained imagination. It's so good that I cry. Lolo is so pitiful.
This book is very interesting and makes me cry. I have always liked sadistic stories, of course, the kind of stories written by someone who has no definite relationship. This kind of book can always make me cry and cry to death. This book is very typical. I have read about three rows of the author's books, and this is the only one that made me cry. Anyway, it is very good-looking, and Jiang Chi's love is very good.
So A Chi also likes Chu Luo, crying to death 🥺 🥺 😭 😭
I always thought that dying for love was just an ancient legend
Wow, the author is amazing. I first thought that Annie had a crush on Jiang Chi. Later, I thought that Annie was Jiang Chi's sister. I didn't expect that Annie was Jiang Chi. To be precise, she should be Jiang Chi's replacement.
I really, my wife can't stand this kind of double Si↘↘
It's coming, it's over, I'm so reluctant to let it go, and I'm looking forward to the physical version next.
Why did you inadvertently issue a knife in the end?
