Yun Zhong Ge - Song in the Cloud book 1 out of 3

Now that Mrs Koala has finished translating Yun Zhong Ge (from here on will be referred as YZG)'s first book, we're left with major cliffhanger. YZG follows Da Mo Yao's pattern to a T. I am not sure about Bu Bu Jing Xin though since I haven't read that one. It's definitely like everyone said - I can understand Meng Jue and why he did what he did, but I couldn't bring myself to forgive him. I mean, if he lives in today's world, he would be branded as a genius and can probably attain high position in the society solely based on his effort. I'm not coherent now, so forgive me if my writing seems to be all over the place and not well constructed XD

As for Yunge, being a pampered young lady, shielded by her parents from the reality of life, finding out that a chance encounter is really not "by chance" at all and that she has been used by Xiao Jue must be a major shocker for her. I applaud her for not being wishy-washy, though I will be more satisfied if she gives Xiao Jue a chance to explain first before dumping his ass (oh the satisfaction!).

I'm glad to know that my observation's proven to be correct - Xiao Jue is the one who asked for Yunge's hand in marriage - he's the catalyst for every heartbreaks Yunge has to experience. Anyway, I kinda regret reading about the characters' fate before picking up YZG (FYI, almost every major characters are real historical figures except for Yunge and Xiao Jue).
 
Oh ya, I have to admit, I took a peek of the final book *cries on cue*
I sure hope I can get Tong Hua's books during my trip to Beijing next month.
It's too expensive here :(
