By middle age, Chen Laifu has lived a poor, uneventful life, and he thinks his days will remain bleak until the end.
An unexpected business trip and a brief spell of indulgence, a fleeting tenderness found along the way, send him wavering between comfort and desire. A kind, considerate woman once brought light into his life, but one foolish mistake made him destroy that stability with his own hands. Then youthful, forward advances clouded his judgment, until he finally saw them for what they were: a game played for the moment.
Disappointed in love but thriving at work, he becomes a manager and sees his salary rise. Faced with the resentful gaze of someone from his past and the eager advances of others, he finally comes to his senses.
This is the story of a middle-aged man finding himself again amid desire, guilt, and the longing for stability.
The story is down-to-earth, ordinary and warm, and fascinating.
Real and very delicately written.
Good looking and well written psychological activities
