Love in the City is actually an updated version of Zhang Ailing's novel collection Legend. This book is not the earliest legend published by Zhang Ailing in Chinese mainland after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

The earliest Legend was probably published by Ningxia People's Publishing House 1985 and 65438+February, with a print run of 16600 copies and a price of 1.8 yuan. This book is based on the legend of Zhang Ailing, but unfortunately the editor deleted some articles without authorization and put some articles in other works, which is not authentic.
