No. 21 Luojia Road: from Cinnamon to Cherry Blossoms

This novel is set in Wuhan and tells the story of Zhou Zhiqiang and Liu Sisi's love, growth and entrepreneurship from campus to workplace. In the late autumn of 2021, Zhou Zhiqiang, a student in the School of Liberal Arts, picked up the famous watch Liu Sisi had dropped in the law school reference room, and the two met for the first time because of the fragrance of cinnamon. Zhou Zhiqiang, who was born into a poor family, works part-time and cares about his sick mother, while Liu Sisi, who comes from a wealthy family, has a psychological ideal. The two are attracted by their differences, but also separated due to misunderstandings in reality. Wu Xiaohong's intervention and Zhang Wei's business game put emotions and career to the test. From libraries to entrepreneurship in Optics Valley, they have experienced data leakage crises and the temptation of business marriage, but they have always adhered to their original intention of education and built children's education APP into a brand with both public welfare value and technological power. The novel is based on the landmarks of Wuhan (Luojia Mountain, Yangtze River Bridge, Lingbo Gate, etc.), And incorporates regional elements such as hot dry noodles and Han drama, making the city a witness to emotions and dreams. From school uniforms to wedding dresses, from the trough of entrepreneurship to listing on Nasdaq, Zhou and Liu spent ten years writing the answer to "running in both directions" - love sublimated when rushing in the heavy rain, dreams taking root in the early morning of Optics Valley, and finally in the cherry blossom rain at Guqintai, with a wedding full of memories of Wuhan, they interpreted the city spirit of "sticking to the original intention, daring to love and dare to fight". This is a love letter from Wuhan about youth, struggle and growth, and a hymn dedicated to all those who have dreams.
