My World Seems to Be Sick

My world became sick and changed into something I didn't recognize. Since when... The squeezing cows and horses no longer have feelings, and the rolling gears need to turn by themselves. Some battles can be paused. There are moments when you have to be there. For example, the first meal of the New Year is dumplings. For example, your family is still waiting for you, this reunion dinner. This novel and its characters are purely fictitious. Any similarity is purely coincidental and should not be imitated.
