Broken Oar

Introduction to the novel: Sixteen-year-old Lin Qi's shoulders have already been bent by life. His father who was paralyzed in bed, the never-ending medical bills, and the shadow left by his mother who ran away with a rich man made up the entirety of his world. While his peers sat in the classroom, he could only wander between the early morning vegetable market, the dusty construction site and the rental house filled with the smell of medicine. His only light is his brother Li Ying, who is also struggling in the mud. Li used his beef offal stall and his eternal grin to try to fight against this damn fate and stubbornly planned a distant dream of "his own store." When Li Ying pulled him and said, "Let's do it together," Lin Qi's cold heart cracked. But at the same time, another dream about brushes and colors that he had buried with his own hands began to stir in his heart, violently colliding with the heavy reality. Staggering forward in the cracks of survival. Can they catch that seemingly out-of-reach light?
