Hmm... It's a very special book, somewhat like a psychological profile of an autobiography, or like having a camera installed on the protagonist's head. The vast majority of the book follows the protagonist's journey, and every psychological change is both brilliant and reasonable, revealing to the reader the rationality behind the statement that "the truth is more absurd than the story."
Few people read realistic novels; everyone prefers fantasy/transmigration stories. Those who write realistic novels are true fans! When the protagonist was struggling with how to treat his father's illness, I felt the same way—I was genuinely broke! I'd just saved tens of thousands of yuan, and it was all gone in a few days. My father had a brain tumor, and from hospitalization to death, it was only four days! He didn't leave me with any debt!
Is this your marriage? The male lead wavers back and forth, unable to reassure his wife or his parents. He claims to be saving money for his father's treatment, yet he can't see the cancer clearly emerging. Instead of gathering resources to fight it, he lends 300,000 yuan just to make ends meet for six months. I truly don't understand such a huge matter.
It's very well written. Don't worry too much about the reader comments on Qidian (a Chinese online literature platform); they've read too many wish-fulfillment novels and can't accept this kind of realistic writing all at once. It's really well written! Keep it up, and I look forward to your next book.
It's good; it feels like it would be perfect for a TV series adaptation.
I thought he would get a divorce and find a new wife, but the father-in-law died and the daughter-in-law didn't go. How can they live together like this? Even if you're a woman who's never been married, you still have to consider that even if your father-in-law doesn't like you, death is a serious matter. In my family, my mom and grandparents didn't get along.
Lightning protection
Warning: The author has a history of writing adult content.
I wish my roommate would remain single for ten years so that the author's marriage and family life would be like this book.
This is my first time reading this. Although I haven't experienced it myself, it feels very vivid, like watching a movie. The writing is excellent. (This is my first time subscribing to the entire book for over 700 coins... Can the author please update faster?)
I read a few chapters, but I just couldn't take it anymore. Do people like this really exist in real life? This personality is just unbelievable. His dad is sick, and all he thinks about is not spending money and not taking care of him. He has absolutely no sense of responsibility and is not decisive at all.
