   The story is pretty good, and the relationship between the two characters gradually develops. However, it wasn't quite satisfying to read. Some scenes that should have been climaxes ended too quickly, and before the emotions could be properly built up, it was over. Another point is that the emotional descriptions of Luo and Qu could be more nuanced. But its flaws don't detract from its overall merit; it's definitely worth reading. 🐶
