A Transaction Turns into Surrender

The First Installment in the Jiangcheng Universe

Given the circumstances, I wondered if I should just start a new account under a new name, but I can't bring myself to let go of Jiangcheng (I'm so sorry, I really am). I've decided to put out a final, soul-cleansing version and let it stand as is.

The message of this novel is to promote truth, goodness, and beauty, to show that true love exists in this world, and to encourage people to mend their ways. If you turn onto the right path, you can find happiness. I hope readers will bring their values with them and look beyond the surface.

But... if I can't fix it, then so be it. I'll give it a try.

Please understand, whatever happens. TT

Xu Shaoqing x An Li. Mad dog x honest fish

You're my medicine.

I want to be your father.

This is an outrageously over-the-top novel, full of more landmines than a watermelon field. Be careful like a melon-stealing badger when you go in: observe from a distance and figure out if you're looking at a sweet melon or a landmine. Make sure you're immune to melodramatic tropes from over a decade ago before taking a bite. But honestly, I think it's incredibly pure love. I adore them.

Also: Please read the author's statement. I sincerely recommend that readers who are underage read any book on my account under a guardian's supervision. Love you all.

Let's see if this gets paragraph comments.

Theme: Be a good person and do the right thing
