Summary

After three years of striving in Beijing, Li Yang thought he had found success in both love and career—until the same day brought a double blow. His girlfriend Wang Xiaoxiao broke up with him and confessed she was pregnant with another man's child, and a heated confrontation with his boss over poor performance led him to quit in anger. Plunged into rock bottom, he is dragged by his friend Wang Pangzi to a bar, where a chance encounter through WeChat's Shake feature introduces him to Mi Xiaoai and others. Starting from a shared apartment, he must once again face the pressures of work, relationships, and life. The novel chronicles the hardships and perseverance of Beijing drifters, capturing the collision between dreams and reality, and the ordinary young people who refuse to admit defeat even after being repeatedly battered by life in a sprawling metropolis.

Editor's review

This book suits readers who resonate with the struggles of life as a Beijing migrant and prefer realistic urban romance. Its draws are the authentic sense of hitting rock bottom under the double blow of a breakup and job loss, and the everyday warmth woven through shared housing, job hunting, and love; Li Yang's self-mockery and self-deprecation also take much of the bitterness out of it. Its weaknesses are colloquial language, slow plot progression, some rather formulaic passages, and early dramatic conflicts that feel somewhat contrived.

Reading tips

  1. Finish the first ten chapters first to get used to the protagonist's self-mocking narration and slow-burn pace
  2. Focus on Li Yang's psychological journey from rock bottom to starting over rather than just the romance line
  3. Readers who easily identify with the Beijing drifter storyline may read in segments to avoid emotional heaviness

FAQ

Is this book a wish-fulfillment story or a realistic one? It leans toward realistic urban romance; the protagonist starts from a very low point and the rise is slow, so it is not a fast-paced wish-fulfillment novel.
Is the romance line single-heroine? It opens with betrayal by an ex-girlfriend, then develops around a new relationship, so the romance line is relatively twisty.
About how long is it, and what is its status? About 526,000 characters; completed.
