Qin Chu sighed lightly and tightened his arms around Huo Mian.

"The employee told me a story about an old couple in his village. The children of the old couple moved out of the village and hadn't visited them for years. The old man made a living by collecting garbage and had to take care of his wife who had a mental disease.
