No wonder he had resorted to using loudspeakers to broadcast noise in his dreams; she hadn’t heard it because it was just too far.
Chen Xu curiously asked, “Why do you choose to live so far from your workplace?”
“This house was left to me by my mother. Living here always keeps her memory alive,” she replied.
Chen Xu sensed something in her words and asked with a hint of surprise, “Your aunt, she?”
“She passed away,” Luo Xiyun answered calmly.
Chen Xu apologized, “I’m sorry, I didn’t know…”
“It’s okay, she has been gone for ten years,” Luo Xiyun said, looking towards the complex. After a pause, she added softly, “But in my heart, she has never left.”
Chen Xu held her hand tighter but said nothing.
The two stood quietly for a while.
Luo Xiyun then looked at him and said, “Well, I should head back now.”
Chen Xu asked, “Won’t you invite me up for a while?”
“Who invites someone to their home on the first date?” Luo Xiyun chided him with a glance, releasing his hand, “I’m leaving now.”
“Okay.”
Chen Xu watched her disappear at the entrance of the complex and thought, ‘Looks like I need to buy a car soon.’

He knew she did it out of consideration, but it made commuting to work very inconvenient for her, given the distance.
He calculated that since starting the noodle restaurant three months ago, business had improved significantly. He had about two hundred thousand in savings, of which one hundred and fifty thousand were earnings from the restaurant, and fifty thousand were from dart competition winnings, having recouped his initial investment.
However, he thought that a car worth two hundred thousand might still be somewhat inadequate for Luo Xiyun.
“There is another dart competition next week with a hundred thousand in prize money. If I win, that would make it three hundred thousand.”
