-From the day he met Xu Sheng, he never once thought he could stay out of it.
When Chen Yan was five, he never liked spending time with other children his age. But after moving, he kept going to see the little girl next door, watching her stack blocks into castles without ever speaking to her.
When Xu Sheng was five, she didn't like going outside much, because a strange boy had moved in next door and kept following her around.
Then one day, one of Xu's father's business partners came over with a little boy, and the two children built with blocks in front of the house.
