Description
“Reunion of Broken Mirror | Reunion at the Beginning On a stormy summer night, at a street-side convenience store. Gu Jiahe never expected to meet Li Zhao again. They were deeply in love during their youth but suddenly broke up near graduation. After six years of complete disconnection, they unexpectedly reunite in the seventh year. Li Zhao, braving the heavy rain, chased him all the way to his rental house. Gu Jiahe tugged at Li Zhao’s shirt collar and joked, ‘are you feeling lonely, so you’ve come to relive old memories with me?’ Li Zhao’s face darkened upon hearing this. ‘Yes. It’s been too long since I touched you, and it’s burning inside.’ Gu Jiahe, feeling frustrated, decided that after this last night, he would move out immediately. He would pretend that nothing had happened, and he would never see Li Zhao again. However, two days later, Gu Jiahe, as usual, got up early and went to work at the company. Turning around, he noticed an unfamiliar laptop on the desk next to his. The next moment, someone opened the door. Li Zhao stood at the doorway and waved, ‘Manager Gu, I am the resident lawyer from the law firm collaborating with your company.’ Gu Jiahe’s brain instantly froze: This is bad. One in love but unable to have, the other insincere in words.

My Thoughts on Seventh Year Of Separation
"Seventh Year Of Separation" is a story that definitely tugged at my heartstrings, though it wasn't without its flaws. The premise of childhood sweethearts reconnecting after a painful breakup is always a good starting point for a romance, and this one definitely explores some deeper themes.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the promise of a mature love story dealing with past trauma and misunderstandings. The idea of two people navigating their way back to each other after seven years apart felt compelling, and I was eager to see how the author would handle the complexities of their reunion.
What Works Well
What I appreciated most was the realistic portrayal of Gu Jiahe's internal struggles. His inferiority complex, stemming from a difficult family background, felt very real and relatable. It's easy to understand why he might be hesitant to open up to Li Zhao, especially when he views their relationship as an escape. I thought the story handled this aspect of his character arc quite well, showing his growth as he learns to trust and rely on Li Zhao. The novel also excels at creating a warm, slice-of-life feel, making it an easy and comforting read. The quiet, unassuming love between the two characters is endearing, and I found myself rooting for them to overcome their obstacles.
Areas of Concern
While I mostly enjoyed the story, I can see why some might find certain aspects less appealing. The initial awkwardness of their reunion, particularly the early intimate scenes, could be off-putting for some readers. Also, Gu Jiahe's tendency to hide things and the resulting misunderstandings could feel a bit frustrating at times. I think that the success of this novel hinges on your ability to empathize with Gu Jiahe's insecurities and accept his flaws as part of his character.
Final Verdict
Overall, I found "Seventh Year Of Separation" to be a worthwhile read. It's not a perfect novel, but its strengths lie in its realistic portrayal of personal growth, quiet romance, and exploration of complex emotions. If you're looking for a heartwarming slice-of-life story with a touch of angst and a focus on overcoming past trauma, this might be the book for you.
