I've finally had time to sit with my thoughts about this story and all I can say is that I had to reread it immediately after i finished to process all the dialogue and interactions, and to bask in the pain.

The author manages to tell a fresh, engaging story in just a handful of pages, writing dialogue that is both simple and impactful. The last third of the book was incredible and tender, showing a love exceeding the physical and conventional.

the premise of this book was really unique and the ending was very shocking and painful. It was a bit difficult to read but I think that's just because of some translating errors and not the authors fault (it doesn't affect the reading experience though!). It took a while for the ending to sink in and for me to understand and I think the author could have explained it a little better. But overall, it was really good and very, very painful.

I liked the premise of this story but the story itself did not give what it promised to give. The plot twist was obvious and it was supposed to be sad but it did not make me feel anything at all i wish it didnt go to that direction it would have been a better story to read

the translation was not the best, but it still made my heart hurt :(

“You have failed so many times. Have you ever thought of giving up?" Su QingYan doesn't care about his life, but he doesn't understand Zero's intentions.

[No, my existence is to save you.]

The more i think about it, the better it gets, the sadder it gets. This was just sad and cruel, but i think had a really unique premise. Its a really short read, everyone should just go and read this!!!!

[Afroza Mahazabin · Rating 4 out of 5]

[Yes.]

You wanna know what I love about this? There is a 0% chance of a happy ending for this couple in all of the multiverse. They love each other, but are doomed together.

No dog blood (melodramatic cliches), just perfect tragedy.

It was a good story. I had some problems engaging with the writing because of multiple grammatical mistakes, but that's probably because of the site who translated it to English instead of the author. The story was fine. The beginning was catching and the first chapter touched my heart. I kind expected the story to go on another direction, focusing more on the protagonist and his boyfriend's relationship problems, but that was a me problem and doesn't reduce any of the story's merits. The plot twist at the end is very easy to see coming, as there can be so many characters on a short-story, and I think the story could be even better if there was a better explanation about 'Zero' instead of just... well, what the story gave us. Still recommend, though, specially if you wanna a quick read; I literally wasn't able to stop reading it until the end
