Having spent the last couple of months reading the 188 BL series with a bastard protagonist in each novel, I’m now a bit not used to reading two young, but kind-hearted protagonists with hard and quite sad lives… I have just started on the first few chapters and already felt very attached to the two protagonists! If you love Saye 撒野, I think you will like this BL novel too, with very similar beginning, but not surprisingly both these novels are written by the same novelist, Wuzhe 巫哲. A Lucky Coin is the story of an unschooled, tall 17-year-old who lives a gypsy life of travelling all over the country with his father who has a mysterious job, and both have just arrived to a new city. He met, rescued and befriended a small and quiet, stuttering 14-year-old (? the novel just stated that he is in the second year of high school) who was being bullied by his classmates… I read the synopsis and apparently, there will be mysteries (my type of story, hahaha…) surrounding the disappearance of both their fathers, and they will separate and meet again later… As usual, now that I know there are audio dramas of Chinese BL novels, I’m now needing theme song to listen to while reading the novel, so here it is, the theme song from the audio drama of A Lucky Coin…
