The place felt lonely, as usual, for she didn't know any other neighbor except Hao, who's also the only friend she had in this city.

After cooking herself rice porridge for dinner, she decided to do a home cleanup. Wiping the floor of every room, she was soon soaked with sweat in less than half an hour.

The clatter from outside constituted a sharp contrast with her quiet, lonely life.

Having no clue who to talk to, she spared her time browsing through friends' posts.

A number of old colleges she used to work with in Ye City seemed all recently married, posting wedding photos and sharing their love and joy. Other friends she connected with on WeChat were posted about their life, some travelling, some flattering themselves over selfies.
