His Tender Eyes

The second time I read the novel, I cried. The last time I read it, it was Xia Hua. The male protagonists of the two original novels always overlap in my mind. I feel so sorry for Cheng Jing, the forbearance and restraint of low self-esteem and love, and the helplessness of Xue Ling to leave Cheng Jing in order to pay for the death of Cheng Jing's brother, because that is Cheng Jing's only relative in the world... Fortunately, the ending is good, which makes me feel something in my heart.

I felt a little sad after reading it in a hurry😔. I thought of Xue Yu who died at a young age, of poor Cheng He, of Chen Ran who finally drove him crazy, of Xue's father who regretted that he died alone without his son and daughter, and of the painful time when Cheng Jing and Xue Ling were separated. I remembered that the two of them always blamed themselves when they talked about Cheng He. The author's bold writing of abuse is always more touching than the writing of sweetness.

Concise and coherent story.
