Tao Yan stood at the door of Ge Cheng's house waiting for him to come back. But he didn't come back at lunch time... She felt her legs were numb, and her stomach was growling with hunger... She squatted down and sat down on the steps near the door of Ge Cheng's house, then took out a bottle of mineral water from her briefcase and drank it to satisfy her hunger... More than an hour later, it was already past lunch time. Tao Yan hugged her knees and buried her head in her thighs... People kept coming and going from the corridor. When they passed by Tao Yan, they would turn to look at her, but they didn't dare to ask her, just because she was a stranger and they didn't know her origin...
