Our take on Bai Qu: Hundreds of Melodies
Its defining structure is a short, branching narrative in which no choice is treated as the single correct path. The story uses multiple routes and endings to present different meanings around the same relationships and events.

Set in Nanjing as spring gives way to summer, this visual novel follows college student Wei Qiuwu, concertina player Li Jiayun, nurse Yang Qin, and high school student He Jia.
