My Innkeeper's Wife

Yu Yi, the former lead singer of an independent band, persuaded his best friend A Ze to drink his last glass of tequila after a drinking party in Beijing three years ago. Aze rode his motorcycle into the night and never came back. Yu Yi self-exiled to Dali, bartending, singing and waiting to die in a bar in the ancient city called "Old Time". He thought he would die here until Wen Ci, the proprietress of the "Ci She" next door, showed up - she only ordered one cup of beer called "Feng Hua Snow Moon" every night, never drank it, and only listened to his song "Midian". He thought she was the Bodhisattva who came to save him, but he didn't know that she was Aze's long-lost sister. She came here to examine the murderer who killed her younger brother. When the truth was revealed, when the wandering photographer Jiang Ye broke his leg while riding a motorcycle, his childhood sweetheart Ye Zhiqiu burned his ten-year diary for him, and the Beijing financier Lu Jin bought his soul for 500,000 yuan, Yu Yi discovered: There is no snow in Dali, but everyone is waiting for a snow that will never fall. A city, a song, a glass of wine that I have never drunk before, and a world with lingering warmth.
