The Man Climbing the Slope

Niu Qiang is an honest man. He believes true love can last forever, but true love is like a knife, and every cut leaves a wound. The saddest thing in the world is a sincere heart with nothing to its name, and a tenderness with nothing to offer. After the woman he loved left, Niu Qiang adjusted the course of his life and, through countless hardships, became what people call a successful man. But what difference did it make? He still never found the love and tenderness he had once known. Marriage is exhausting: it leaves Niu Qiang in agony, yet he can't bring himself to let go. Perhaps an imperfect life is the real thing.
