After finishing the planned preparations for the trip, Yu Zhinian copied the things Yang Ke had sent him onto a USB drive, put it in his computer bag, and then got into Mei Qi's car for the ride back to Dang Village.It drizzled the whole way up the mountain, and the forest was lush and deeply green. The mountain road that had been blocked by the landslide before had been cleared into a small path, paved with gravel.Mei Qi drove carefully. They set out in the afternoon and didn't arrive in Dang…

Yang Ke arrived at the hospital at noon the next day. He walked into the ward, and the three people who had been chatting fell silent by unspoken agreement.He exchanged brief greetings with his father and Professor Xu, then looked toward Yu Zhinian.The day before, he had called Yu Zhinian, and Yu Zhinian had reluctantly told him what had happened over the past few days.He didn't seem angry that Yu Zhinian had conspired with his father to hide his condition. He only said he would come as soon as…

Thirty-Six (2019) Yu Zhinian returned to the apartment next to school in a daze, his mind elsewhere. Ren Heng and Chu Sifan had cleaned the apartment until it gleamed, like a showroom model. Every piece of furniture was arranged neatly, and even the marble countertop of the open kitchen's island was spotless and new. Yu Zhinian sat on the sofa, recalling everything that had happened since he came back to He City. Smith's constant pestering about moving things, the broken door lock in the basement,…

At eleven in the morning, Zhao Sibei landed at the airport in He City. Yang Ke came to pick him up alone. He had come to He City for two reasons: first, there was a genuine academic invitation, and second, he had learned that his son and Yu Zhinian had registered their marriage, and wanted to take the opportunity to see them both. Yang Ke didn't bring a driver. He drove himself. His car was much more luxurious than Zhao Sibei's. He must have been to the company that morning, as he was dressed very…

Yang Ke didn't want to stop, but he did. Yu Zhinian leaned back against the seat, and Yang Ke noticed that Yu Zhinian's fingers were bare. He pulled back slightly from Yu Zhinian. Yu Zhinian opened his eyes and looked at him, not with wild joy, but with more confusion and some evasion. His lips moved, hesitating as if he wanted to speak. "What's wrong?" Yang Ke reached out and took Yu Zhinian's left hand. Yu Zhinian's hand was soft, without much strength. He looked down at their interlaced hands…

After arriving in Sanwen, Yu Zhinian first checked into the guest house, then went to visit his aunt, whom he hadn't seen in years. His cousin had started university and hadn't begun summer break yet. Yu Zhinian had lunch at his aunt's place and spent time chatting with her. Perhaps the ten years spent in Ning City and He City had consumed too much of his emotional capacity. When his aunt mentioned things from Yu Zhinian's childhood, he felt as though he were looking back across a vast distance. His…

Yang Ke slept for just over ten minutes before waking up, though he didn't seem fully awake. Yu Zhinian asked him quietly if he was very tired. He said no, but then reached out and pulled Yu Zhinian sideways into his arms, resting his head on Yu Zhinian's shoulder as if that was how he could get some rest. He asked Yu Zhinian, "How long did I sleep?" Yu Zhinian rarely saw Yang Ke like this, muddled and unfocused. Unkindly, he lied to him: "Two hours. The movie's almost over." "...Yu Zhinian," Yang…

After several rounds of trouble, Yu Zhinian finally settled down in the most populous village in Xiping County.The village was called Dang Village, not far and not close from Xiping County town. It was about half an hour's drive from the county seat, and it was the village with the best road conditions. He rented a small flat next to the village chief's house. Mei Qi got him a mountain bike and would come check on him from time to time, bringing him daily necessities.Xiping had its own dialect…

Yang Ke woke before the sky had fully brightened.Outside, sparse birdsong drifted through the air. The pale light of early morning filtered through the curtainless window into the room, and Yu Zhinian, wearing a white T-shirt that had been washed many times and grown thin, slept deeply with his back to Yang Ke.The room and bedding smelled of clean soap.Yu Zhinian had been busy these past few days and was exhausted. Last night they hadn't done much before falling asleep. Yu Zhinian was still sleeping…
