Then, she heard the sound of her young, clear voice singing
Man Bu Ren Sheng Lu.
What if we get caught again and cant escape? The boys
voice rang out.
Idiot! With me here, how can we not escape? Ill definitely
take you with me and escape!
If you ditch me, youll definitely be able to escape.
Theres no way Im going to ditch you! I said that I will protect you, so Ill protect you! Im not afraid of those bad guys!

Ah! Grace opened her eyes with a start. In a flash, she sat up on her bed with her eyes wide open. What entered her line of vision was the pale rays of light.
This was her rental home!
Grace abruptly breathed in as she looked at the time. It was
only three in the morning.
Did she have a dream? It seemed that she had dreamt
of a conversation between her younger self and a boy.
Furthermore, she had sung Teresa Tengs Man Bu Ren Sheng
Lu
Good heavens, why would she have had a dream like this?
Could it be that she had listened to too many rounds of Man
Bu Ren Sheng Lu back in Brians car, so she dreamt of herself
singing it?

Lina, can you lend me 7,500 bucks? I kind of need it urgently, but I wont be able to pay you back straight away. Maybe just a little bit each month, Grace spoke with some difficulty. After all, the person she did not want to bother the most was Lina.
Lina had already done so much for her, yet she was unable to
repay her in any way.
Sure, Ill transfer it straight to you with my phone, Lina Sweeney replied readily.
Thank you, Grace uttered the two words softly.
Grace, theres no need to say those two words between
Lina Sweeney.
Despite those words being spoken, Grace still wanted to clear
the payment as soon as she could.
She could not owe Lina too much.
