In the early summer of 1975, Chen Haiming was born into an ordinary family in Zhuanghe, Dalian. She already had an older sister.
Her sister, Chen Haifang, was still little and didn't understand much. She simply grabbed the baby's hand and stammered, "Mei."
No one knew if she meant "younger sister" or "beautiful."
But Chen Haiming really was beautiful, and had been ever since she was little.
Chen Haiming went to school.
Chen Haiming started working.
Chen Haiming fell in love.
Chen Haiming got married, but gave birth to a daughter who was quite ordinary-looking.
Later, she told her daughter that she had loved beauty all her life and had never been satisfied. It wasn't until she was over fifty, looking in the mirror, that she finally thought she looked just right.
After all, the mortal world is like a sea, and life is like waves. The tides roll in one after another, washing some things away and leaving others behind.
Chen Haiming isn't afraid of the power of the waves.
Because beneath her appearance, she has strong bones and a resilient heart.
She will always stand above the waves.
