A Quarter-Hour Romance

Time is something that slowly slips away every day and is easily overlooked. From Xiao Mo's first book (Encountering the Perfumer) to (Melbourne's Calculation of Love), then to (Fragrant Love), and finally (Love at First Sight), two years have passed in the blink of an eye. Each book has shown us a new generation of girls with different personalities.

I've been slowly reading Xiao Mo's new book for almost a month now. From the initial setup with Su Nianyao, to the later breakup scene with Jiang Shiyu at the Lego store after their shopping spree, and the ensuing romantic entanglements, I've gone from being completely confused to feeling sorry for and bewildered by Jiang Shiyu.

This book is somewhat similar to the kind of articles I read in the magazine "Fireworks" during high school; it has a tear-jerking quality, unlike the online novels I read on my phone now. I can't quite put my finger on the difference—online novels do have different styles—but this one feels like the style of "Fireworks."

Perfumers, fashionistas, doctors, watchmakers, the wealthy, businessmen, and perhaps even ice skating/skiing enthusiasts (just a guess), then there's Asia, Europe, America, and Oceania—Xiao Mo presents us with a multifaceted and three-dimensional world. Reading Xiao Mo's books truly feels like traveling the world without leaving home.

Their love was like the minute and second hands of a clock, with each playing a different role at different times. Sometimes he was the second hand and she was the minute hand; other times, she was the second hand and he was the minute hand! That's how it was between them. No matter the situation, one was always running ahead while the other desperately chased after them.

Actually, I like Shi Yu more. To put it bluntly, the female lead is actually a scumbag. When you like someone, they're there at your beck and call; when you don't, even their one act of capriciousness becomes an excuse to break up. You just didn't like them enough, which is why you hate shopping. If you don't like them anymore... Then stop giving them false hope.

Activity Post The Legacy of Love She looked at the dozens of notebooks in her hand, which she had found while cleaning out her husband's belongings. Opening the book above, I asked her today: "Do you remember the date of our first date?" She smiled gently: "Although I have a bad memory, I won't forget this day. It was National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival on the same day.

I came here because of the generous donation. I had read this book before and didn't like it, but I thought that such a large donation must mean it has something to offer. I read through the reviews, and sure enough, 😅 the female lead isn't Su Nianyao. I had previously thought she was, which is why I abandoned the book. Now, keep going!

I saw the treasure chest, clicked to take a look, and felt that I rarely saw female-oriented novels with a silver rank. Then I was surprised to find that it was only 17,000 words long. Finally, I looked at the author's books, and they were all quite short. It's amazing that he was promoted to Level 5 author with only 2 million words. Next, I opened the new book and took a look.

Activity Post The story began unexpectedly, so I wonder if the ending will be the same? Buy, buy, buy! (Female lead) It's undoubtedly a novel experience to learn about this surname for the first time. ★ Shopping spree before the incident Although the number of times she buys things doesn't quite match her name, the value of her purchases is undeniable. ★ Shopping Spree After the Encounter
