Remaining Things Send Tenderness

"Remaining Things Send Tenderness" is an urban healing novel based on the restoration of old objects. Wen Shi, a 26-year-old restorer of old objects, has a special talent - when he touches damaged old objects, he can see the memory images sealed in them, but he can never hear the sounds in the images; Shen Ciyan, a 28-year-old translator of cultural relics and archaeological texts, can accurately decipher the emotions and obsessions sealed in old objects, but cannot see any concrete light and shadow. Two souls who each suffered from incompleteness met in a restoration studio deep in an old alley. When they touched the same old object at the same time, her silent world began to whisper for the first time, and his black and white world was reflected in human fireworks for the first time. Starting from an old wooden box that sealed a century-old secret love, the two worked side by side to repair the remnants of the world - a broken hosta, a porcelain Buddha broken into seven pieces, a silver bracelet that was blackened by oxidation, and family letters hidden in the cracks in the wall. Every old thing is a piece of human tenderness that has been almost taken away by time, and they use each other's talents as puzzle pieces to interpret, treasure and deliver the silent love, unspoken farewells, and the original intention to be kind in desperate situations. When Wen Shi retrieved nineteen years of lost childhood memories while repairing the family letters left by her mother, she finally understood that she was never an abandoned child, but a deeply loved treasure. There are cracks in everything in the world, and that is the entrance to gentleness. Two incomplete people, accompanying each other in the world of fireworks, slowly become complete, and spend the rest of their lives tenderly repairing the desolation and cracks in each other's half-life.
