My name is Shen Rongzhi. When I was five years old, I caught a girl who fell from an apricot tree.
She soiled my clothes, slapped my face, and then stayed with me for the rest of my life.
I took her to Anhe—a place without city walls, schools, or roads.
She said: "I will go wherever you go."
Later, Anhe had city walls, schools, roads, and mountains full of apricot blossoms.
I also had a whole life with her.
