CHAPTER 48
I slowly walked towards the main entrance with Li Chuan. The chauffeur was already waiting for him.
Li Chuan opened the door of the extremely spacious German car for me and let me get in. He got in and handed the crutches to the driver to place into the trunk. His entire body radiated with a refreshing fragrance. Read more

CHAPTER 47
“Hi…”
I called out while gasping for breath, my stomach churching up and down. I couldn’t continue for a long time. Read more
CHAPTER 46
After getting back to Beijing, I only received one call from Li Chuan. It was only a few minutes long, asking if I had gotten back safe and sound. Afterwards, I never received a call from Li Chuan again. I didn’t call to look for him either.
I still missed him, but had no alternative. I could only go with the flow. Read more
CHAPTER 44
Li Chuan bought a piece of bread for me and leaned against the railing by the lakeside with me, watching me pull it apart bit by bit to feed the ducks.
After standing there with me for awhile, he pointed to a bench under the shade of a tree and said, “You take your time, I’ll go sit over there.” Read more
CHAPTER 43
He picked up his cane, turned around and walked towards his bedroom, “I’m going to get changed.”
There was air conditioning in the home set around twenty-two degrees, but Li Chuan was covered in sweat like he had just run for eight hundred meters. I followed him into his room. He turned around and said without needing to catch his breath, “I’m getting changed. Why are you coming in?” Read more

Li Chuan liked spacious and high-ceilinged rooms. He liked glass, hardwood, colorful sofas, and other furniture in black and white. The first level was big and had many living rooms. It felt like it could fit all of CGP’s staff and still have room left. He showed me room after room, and then we sat on the sofa to rest. He used a remote to open the curtains. Read more
CHAPTER 41
30 minutes later, Li Chuan actually did appear in the airport. He sat on a exquisite, lightweight wheelchair and was about to come in through the automatic doors. Read more
CHAPTER 40
Every night the outdated fridge in the kitchen would produce a dull humming sound. Some part of it had become damaged, the compactor would activate at every ten minute interval. I informed the landlord about this many times, but he refused to send anyone to repair it. The reasons being, one, it activating all the time doesn’t mean that the fridge didn’t work. It was exactly the opposite, the fridge was was still cold. Two, the cost of fixing the fridge was too expensive, might as well buy a new one. But he wasn’t rich and didn’t intend to spend that money. Read more
CHAPTER 39
Early Saturday morning, Eason called me to confirm whether or not I would be going to the research institute’s formal dinner.
I was suppose to (English) move on anyway. Even though Eason was a resolute celibate, it’s not like I couldn’t use him as practice. Read more
