"Things you've always wanted to do but never got around to..." Lu Mingfei paused. For no particular reason, he was reminded of a time he hailed a cab back in his hometown. The driver had chatted with him enthusiastically, envious that someone so young could travel out into the great wide world, while the driver's own tiny dream was simply to visit Shaoshan, the birthplace of the Chairman, only he never seemed to find the time.
"Wait a few years," the driver had said. "When I have the time, I'll definitely go take a look." When the driver spoke those words, Lu Mingfei could see a deep yearning in his eyes.
Yet how many years had passed since he said those words? The driver had already looked like a middle-aged man in his forties; at that age, he surely had a wife and child.
