A Distant Land, All or Nothing

And with that, Anran's story has officially come to a perfect end. From falling into the abyss to healing herself in the mountains, and then settling down and returning to her parents' side, she finally became her own light. The wicked will be punished, and the good will find their way home. This is the gentleness and confidence I want to share with everyone. Thank you for your continued support. See you in the next story!

Old dreams are shattered, but a peaceful new beginning is just starting.

In a place where no one knew her, Anran found her true self.

Lights and ruins, awakening and decadence—Anran won this round.

Seeing this, you might feel the same way I do: a lump in your throat, yet also a vague sense of relief. While writing this part of the story, I kept thinking: what is the most terrifying thing in marriage? Is it poverty? Is it quarrels? No, the most terrifying thing is the inequality.

The satisfying part of this chapter lies in "ignoring" and "implementing" the message. Do you think Chen Anran's action of "blocking her ex-husband while eating noodles" is satisfying enough?

Hello, my dear babies! Seeing this, don't you find Chen Anran's scene of squatting down to look at the foxtail grass outside the Civil Affairs Bureau a bit endearingly "crazy"? Actually, I wrote this chapter with tears in my eyes. The reason some readers find the details short is because this freedom, for Anran, isn't just a fleeting moment of joy, but the breaking of the "suffocating feeling"…

In this chapter, I introduced the character "Dr. Zhou." His appearance wasn't a mere coincidence, but rather the first rope Chen Anran grasped in the abyss. His arrival was not only physical aid but also a spiritual anchor. In the following chapters, Chen Anran will complete her transformation from "victim" to "observer" within the relatively safe space of the hospital.

In this chapter, I tried to focus entirely on Chen Anran's inner world. There was no intense conflict, only silent despair. Memories, like a dull knife, cut her with unbearable pain, but also awakened the once innocent and carefree Chen Anran. She finally understood that her concessions and gentleness were not met with appreciation, but with even more ruthless trampling.

Do you feel that Chen Anran has finally "stood up"? That's right, this chapter is the key turning point for her from "passively enduring" to "actively fighting back". Faced with Lu Chen's "cruel education" and Su Nian's "deadly scheme", she did not choose to collapse, but chose to see the true nature of this "marriage to a distant place" and decided to transform from a "chip" into a "player".
