You Are More Beautiful Than Beijing

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Han Ting said, “For me, love isn’t everything. I may not be able to provide self-sacrificing love for you, but the love that accompanies you in ordinary life may be possible.”

Ji Xing understands that the love they seek is different, and the outlines of the dreams in their hearts are also different.

But she wanted to climb from the slope to the top of the mountain, stand beside him, face hardships, troubles and pain with him, and witness the beauty of this city with him.

They were dazzling stars who admired each other in their hearts, just like the night view of the capital that he showed her for the first time–

Calm, stunning beauty, so beautiful it is intoxicating.

This really really a good story to read. Not too heavy not too light. It's really good translation too.

But personal opinion I don't really like the FL, if shes in another novel she would be the past girlfriend of ML 😬

I don't know I think she kinda has like princess syndrome or something. Whenever she broke up with her bf, she wants them to call her first. Make amends to her first. She wants them to Pacify her first eventho she knew shes the wrong. Then she'll regret it when... more>> they move on....

But maybe this is the way the author portay her, like it's part of her journey to become more mature. <<less

Really beautiful, really good story that actually has meat and not just romance

... more>>
Spoiler

This story started when both of them are in relationship with other people, to them working together, their break ups, they got together, fell apart, got together again, get married have kids, and die peacefully.

[collapse]

I'm sad this ended, but at the same I'm glad and satisfied. Eventhough there are only 87 chapters, their story really got fleshed out so you don't feel like there's anything left unwritten

and the translation is beautiful too. Thank you translator for yr hard work. More people should read this, you won't be dissapointed for sure <<less

Really enjoyed this novel that goes through the first meeting all the way through the lives of the ML & FL. Lots of romance with some steamy scenes, sprinkled in with work challenges and friendships. Translation by KriTLs – Scribble Hub is top notch and the novel never drags. Can't wait to see how it's adapted into the series! Recommended!!!

If I tell you that I haven't done anything other than read since I discovered this novel, I'm loving the complex characters and problems of grown-ups in their relationships, it's interesting to see the growth as they experience a romance with real love and try to balance that

... more>>
Spoiler

I'm really curious how they're going to get back to the flirting stage with each other, or if they're going to get there again. Is there going to be a little jealousy? If FL is going to come back completely changed and ready to move on with her life and ML finally understands what love means and pursues FL again, maybe that would be a little ooc for ML? Great job, can't wait for the next update

I started this novel after watching the drama and I really like the pace in novel as it’s more realistic. The characters development and showcase of feelings were on point. This novel really made me laugh and cry occasionally.

The last chapter of extra was heartbreakingly beautiful. It concluded their wonderful journey splendidly. I really recommended this novel. Thank you u to the author for such wonderful novel. Grateful to the translator Krish728 for wonderful translation.

i have so much to say about this novel

1st off this novel is full of ANGST but there was no tags included for angst... when I thought of reading this novel I thought it would be a sweet romantic story with a good plot but boy I was wrong once I started reading this the angst came then fluff came then the angst kept on increasing even some of the extras were a little heavy to read... more>>
Spoiler

for example the chapter about ML n FL losing their daughter and how FL got depressed afterwards

[collapse]

i have a bone to pick up with the psychologist extra....
Spoiler

1st ML n FL belonged to the top tier rich class so from them you would expect the medical care would be top notch so how did FL end up with such a lousy psychologist who didn't even follow one of the common protocol that is not to fall in love with your patient and include your personal feeling in the treatment of your patient like the unprofessionalism was out of the roop

2nd after losing their daughter both FL and ML were affected and it involved their relationship and their communication with each other so here not only FL needed counselling but both FL n ML needed couple counselling to make up and understand why they were not able to communicate with each other and why problems were growing bw them

here not only FL needed counselling for her depression but clearly both needed couple counselling too

[collapse]

I feel like the author didn't show much of how FL and ML improved their relationship after FL asked ML to show the real him... there should have been more chapters showing how they improved their relationship and how they worked out problems which didn't work in their prev relationship and how ML decided to show his all sides both bad and good to f;..i feel like we just got a glimpse of their improvement of relationship and then the end here are the extras

and I kinda disagree with everyone saying how realistic this novel is but I beg to differ as expect the business side of novel and past relations not working out I don't think the LOVE STORY of ML and FL was not realistic.. please who would pester your company's investor like FL did... she was unprofessional many times with ML if you think it in business way relationship BUT AT THE END THIS IS A NOVEL, , LOVE STORIES LIKE THIS DON'T HAPPEN IN REAL LIFE so I wouldn't say their love story was realistic but it was what the novel neede

Spoiler

and I dont understand how FL decided to forgive her friend LILI cause you are FL friend first then that admirer's friend then how do you have the audacity to ask yichen's admirere girl to contact yichen (FL ex) when your friend was clearly in relationship with him

and yes lili you were the 3rd person in a relationship and you still decided to stay in that relationship knowing you are coming bw someone's relationship eventhough he is also cheating on her with some other chick so when the real wife came to trouble you then that doesn't put you in any good position

i wouldn't support the guy too as he is going on cheating with so many people on his wife but I just wanted to say LILY was not the victim as she choose to stay in the relationship knowing she is a 3rd person the only victim in this case would be the wife

[collapse]

the admirer of yichen ah! this girl was no good too
Spoiler

i get it her fiance cheated on her but what gives you the right to contact yichen when you clearly had feeeling for him and you vlearly knew he was in relationship with the FL she even said to FL she had to use so many tricks to get in contact with yichen eventhough she didn't knew FL n yichen were going through some problem but girl contacting someone who you clearly had feelings or have feeling for who was in more than 6 years of relation with someone else doesn't make you a saint of a person either

and Shao Yichen I get it FL was busy but atleast you could have msged her to give a heads up that you and the admirer girl were in contact with each other after so many years..

[collapse]

THIS novel is very very complicated... I would say to prepare your heart before reading it <<less

I try to read it 3 times before the drama come and again I try to read it after the drama release, but in first few chapter I feel very bore and then comes to FL love story, I feel she really love that man like truly. So next I cant adjust her love with ML. I dont know how to explain also FL was happy with her first love, they always share their regular life even though they were busy spending time in weekend, even sleeping together, how FL... more>> described his beautiful eyes, how his body make her warm when they sleep together.

I know people can move on and again fall in love but in reality no one can forget their true love. How the author described her first love its made my mood very down. So I drop it. It was my 4 th time. I really want to read it after seeing the good review. <<less

I don't know why I red this novel so late.

But I thoroughly enjoyed the journey. I couldn't resist myself from writing a review. I liked story, translation is also superb. I liked the fact that unlike many other novels both the MC are not perfect. They both have their flaws and they try to overcome it in their own ways. I cried a hell when I was reading those chapters when they broke up and also liked the fact that female lead didn't give in after a little coaxing. Female... more>> leads character is ver strong she is intelligent, smart, hardworking but at the same time she naive, ill tampered, stubborn. Whereas the male lead mature, he always initiate to communicate about the problem and solve the issues. Another character named Xiao Yixiao the friend he is the common character from waiting for you in the city novel. He is a very loyal friend. He helps the character selflessly in both the novels. Also I liked those extras it depicts that life is not always bed of roses it also has thorns like when their daughter died and the ending. My only wish is to read the male lead POV like when he exactly fell for female lead, but my guess is its before they traveled to Munich like when they met at the drama theater I think he felt jealous but he didn't approach because she was already in a relationship. I simply liked that he didn't waste any time in declaring their relationship. Overall I liked it very much. <<less

So worth the read. I was also skeptical when starting but it was so wonderful. I still have residual feeling after reading the extras. The characters were so lifelike. And like us they all have sides to love and hate and everything in the middle. If you need something to cry over, this novel is the perfect choice.

Beutiful story.

At first I was sceptical, with the description it smell full of angst, and I'm not angst lover. At last I give it a shot, and I'm crying when ji xing break up with her ex.

This story full of human like nature. Not overly dramatic, or your over bearing ceo. Ji xing with her imperfectness and explode character match perfectly with mature, logical, and calm han ting, maybe bc han ting much older then her.

Love the side story so much, their marriage journey show there is no perfect live.... more>> And the last chapter? 🥲 Thanks for making me cry <<less

First of all, thank you, translator; the novel is very well done. The glowing reviews for this novel are what led me to begin reading it, that and the author’s Waiting For You in A City which I just read for a second time after stumbling upon the recent drama adaptation. However, no matter how much I tried, I could not like this novel. I put it down and picked it back up three times, but eventually felt that I was forcing myself to read it.

While I was not particularly... more>> enamored of male lead Han Ting (although I loved his perceptive reaction to the attempted blind date scene in Waiting for You in a City), my main problem was the female lead: A.N.N.O.Y.I.N.G. “Petty, spoiled, self-righteous, naïve, and extremely temperamental” are all descriptors for Ji Xing. I did not care for how she interacted with others in the novel nor her childish and petulant reactions to issues of her own insecurities.

At first, I thought my reaction to her would be similar to the one I had for Xu Qin, the lead in Waiting for You... , Qin-qin’s hesitancy and indecisive wavering are off-putting until you understand the depth of brain-washing, emotional torture, and verbal ab*se she has undergone since childhood from the Wicked Witch of the East - - oops, I mean her adoptive ‘mother’. I empathized with her struggles to assert herself and grow a backbone because I knew she was fighting against years of negative nurturing from one of the most important figures in her life. I could cheer her on even when she frustrated me.

But, I have run out of patience with Yiu Are More Beautiful... I’ve read the reviews that boast about the beautiful, tearjerking ending regarding this “perfect“couple, but I’m just not feeling it. To each his own. Actually reviewer “luathas” makes many of the same observations that I would, so there is no need to reinvent the wheel. <<less

It is an excellent book, it depicts complex emotions very well. It is truly a slice of life novel for mature audience (an audience who has already a certain hindsight).

One of the best novels I’ve read recently. The author told stories of Han Ting and Ji Xing so beautifully and the translator did an excellent job of conveying the emotions and the author’s intention behind certain words, their meanings and how they fit in the grand scheme of storytelling. This novel made me laugh, cry and took me on a roller coaster of emotions.

I would highly recommend this novel and wish we all get to experience a love like Han Ting’s and Ji Xing’s, one that lasts a lifetime... more>> and has a definitive conclusion. &Lt;3 <<less

What a fantastic translation. The best translation I have seen in all my years of reading translated Chinese novels. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this for us all.

I loved the story, it was so much better than the drama. I think this is because it was very focused on their relationship rather than the distraction of sub characters. The only character I would have liked to know more about, surprisingly, is Han Yuan.

I found it very emotional in places and shed a few tears and... more>> also had a few laughs. I loved the detailed characterization, but I actually did picture all the actors in the drama in my mind as I read the story! A very satisfying read. <<less

This is a beautiful love story. I enjoy watching the FL grows through her struggles starting her own business. She has that much guts, courage and persistence to continue. She is idealist and moralist which is awesome, but I do find her to be immature sometimes. I love the ML and in my opinion, he is as perfect as can be. I like how he calls the FL out on her hypocrisies on her ideals and the realities of doing business. Like when she calls "wolf" when she was harassed,... more>> but tolerates it when trying to currying favors for her business.

I like the 1 year, 3 year, 5 year... to the end which completes the story. <<less

One of the most beautiful books I've encountered and this says a lot since I've read hundreds of them. Poignant, heart wrenching and full of love. I love how the author did not depict the characters as perfect and holier than thou. They are two flawed characters who chose to love each other despite the setbacks. Really worth the read.

What can I say? This novel is beautiful, realistic, one of the best i've ever read.

Really love how the author wrote their characters. They showed continuous development while staying true to their personality. The characters are lovable despite their many shortcomings and flawed traits, and that's what makes them human. Sometimes I forgot they're just some names in a fiction book 😭

The best thing from reading this is the comfortable experience I had because the translation was top-notch! Many thanks to the wonderful translator❤❤
