Story Swappers at Secondhand Bookstores

At the end of Wutong Lane, there is a second-hand bookstore without a signboard. The owner, Chen Nian, has set a special rule: he does not sell books, he only exchanges them, and he prefers to exchange them with true stories. Here, some people exchanged a regretful love for the yellowed "The Little Prince", and some exchanged childhood longings for the "Navigation Diary" with traces of their father. Every old book contains the joys and sorrows of ordinary people, and every story is recorded, passed on, and continued in the bookstore. Chen Nian is not only the owner of the bookstore, but also the ferryman of stories. He witnessed regrets being healed and longings found a home, and he also discovered that the stories in these old books were not static words - they would quietly grow at specific moments, allowing the lost concerns to return in a gentle way, and allowing scattered emotions to gather together into a warm reunion. This small bookstore has become a ferry for human stories, carrying the love and longing of time, always waiting for the next story to arrive.
