About the author

Xihuazhuren is a Chinese author whose surviving public record appears to be very limited. The name is presented as the author of 宛如約 in Project Gutenberg and related library listings, and an Internet Archive record also shows the creator alias 惜花主人, suggesting a Chinese pen name rather than a clearly identified modern personal name.

Because biographical information is scarce, it is safest to describe Xihuazhuren as an obscure or pseudonymous writer known mainly through 宛如約. Project Gutenberg lists the book in Chinese and notes its release there in November 2008, which is one reason the work remains accessible to new readers and listeners.
