A visually impaired fortune teller who had set up stall at the entrance of the alleyway once told me, “Your love life is destined to be tragically entangled with a man, and it will not come to a good end.”... more>>

My payment to him was a half-drank soda can stuffed into his hands.

I walked away with an air of indignation. “Hey, you haven’t paid!”

His yelling was still audible from a few blocks away.

Are you for real, you could not even tell if your customer is a man or a woman, what fortune can you possibly tell?

Count yourself lucky I did not thrash your stall.

Sitting here at the train station, with my cheeks swelling into the size of a pig’s head, disheveled clothes, both hands empty, I recalled the words of the fortune teller.

I regret not paying my dues and a bit more to him.

It is a pity before today, I have been living the life of a fool.

Not only did I not redeem myself from being involved with a man, I did not discern that I will never come to a good end……..

He waits for Qin An to finish class, either to beat him up or ask for money. But in the end, Yan Shisan doesn’t succeed in doing either.
