Many readers brought along old, rare, and even out-of-print works. In front of these old books, Nguyen Ngoc Tu could not hide her surprise and emotion. She asked each person warmly: "Do you have this book?", "How did you read it?", "It's very difficult to find it again now."

Thanh Trung (38 years old, Go Vap district) - a loyal reader for nearly 20 years - shared: "Every time I meet her, the feeling is very different. This time, she is more cheerful and happy. When signing the autograph, she wrote: "Gentle and peaceful". I believe that is also what she is feeling".

By the end of the event, even though the event had already run out of time, a long line of readers still lingered. Nguyen Ngoc Tu diligently signed autographs for each person with his familiar kindness. Those sincere feelings will be beautiful memories for both the writer and the readers, like the simple message from an elderly fan: "Tu, keep writing regularly!"
