In the deep winter of the new millennium, everything was bleak and uncertain.
Song Wu was dismissed from school as snow fell.
That day, Xia Qiumei took her to their new home.
When they reached the building,
a young man stood in the howling wind, hood pulled over his black sweatshirt, exuding a chilling silence. His gaze at her was laced with hatred.
Xia Qiumei affectionately linked arms with Zhou Daming, while Song Wu passed her new older brother.
She heard him say in a flat, emotionless voice,
"Your mom's quite something, barging into someone else's home as a mistress."
A chill rose from deep within her.

Later, Zhou Daming went bankrupt, and Xia Qiumei ran away.
Zhou Ji took her to live in an unfinished building.
In that damp, leaky apartment, the two of them sank together into the depths of a sticky mire.
