Wow. I'm baffled this barely has any reviews. I put this novel off for a while ever since I saw it was completed because I googled it and came across the television adaptation. I didn't want to read a bromance. The summary is vague and I wasn't sure what to think. Honestly I just gave it a go because it was completed and had 132 chapters and had smut apparently.It was not at all what I expected, but god was I satisfied. This novel gave me everything I could ever want. It's been a minute since I've read something this great. I cried a lot. It's a mature and sophisticated love story, with memorable, lovable characters with so much dimension. It's beautiful, it's heartbreaking, it's everything in between.It's essentially about two men who end up falling in love, one is an opera singer, the other a businessman. They try to be together despite so much trying to keep them apart. One is married with children, the other has been deeply hurt in the past, there's a war brewing, there's responsibilities, family that disagree, it's a very realistic story. Yet it also has time to be witty and you'll find yourself laughing at their antics.I don't think I'll be forgetting this novel in a very long time. The ending is open to interpretation.OKAY BUT PLEASE GIVE MY BABY SHENG ZIYUN A SPIN OFF NOVEL, poor thing was ab*sed throughout the whole novel
