While I Can Still Love Myself

Seven years ago, Lin Ruoqing hid her feelings and waited for a confession that never arrived. Then one sentence, "I'm seeing someone," made her lock that chapter of her youth away, trusting time to heal it. Now a chance encounter puts her face to face with Li Yuxiang, the person she once cared about most. As unspoken words, lost time and late answers resurface, she realizes that people leave and memories fade, but the real lesson isn't clinging to the past; it's learning to love yourself before loving anyone else. Starting over, she finds friends to lean on, dreams to chase and the courage to feel again, and this time she wants to keep her happiness for herself. "Some stories aren't about returning to who you were, but becoming who you're meant to be." From the author: life gives you more than one choice, and you deserve to imagine more. Bits of my own life are stitched into this story, only bits. If something hits home and you tear up, keep tissues close.
