Somehow, the rainy period from late June to early July in Wales made Lin Yilong feel like he was back in winter, and it was not very good - he became a solitary life again: even though Lin Yilong hoped that the Yeang sisters could take a vacation to raise their babies with peace of mind, the twins still continued to be obsessed with academic topics and clinical internships, and even because of the Yeang couple's permanent residence during the holidays, they would run to accompany their parents in their spare time; Katie actively planned to participate in the local elections for her dream- The West Glag Morgan County Council revoked the original Grigwyghe Township and merged the district with the adjacent Rethoven constituency, electing a total of two County Commissioners to the West Glag Morgan County Council, which was busy, and as for Lin's father and mother, they returned to London to "continue to earn money for Lin Yilong".

Although many of the people who "circled around him" were not far away, Lin Yilong was left alone: except for two hours a day to read and reply to emails, the rest of the time was extremely difficult.

When Lin Yilong almost died of boredom, he suddenly received a somewhat unfamiliar text message.

"Is that Mr. Lin?" asked the text message.

"It's me, who is it?" Lin Yilong replied to the text message.

"I'm Amy and we met when I accompanied Samantha to Cardiff the other day. ”

The vague image of Amy suddenly became clear, and Lin Yilong didn't know what this girl who only had two sides to do with him.

Well, Amy does have a certain attraction to Lin Yilong, even very attractive - but whether this attraction value is worth Lin Yilong's action, that's another matter.

"Where can I serve you?" Lin Yilong finished typing this line, feeling that this was a bit too commercial, so he deleted it again and again, and rewrote it into a blunt "What do you want me to do?"

This is actually a very rude tone, and usually when the interlocutor is really impatient, he will send such a message.

"I want to meet you. Amy replied, obviously not able to hear the meaning of Lin Yilong's tone.

"Good. Lin Yilong typed this word for less than a second, and hesitated for a long time before the "send" button, but the message was still sent.

As if the details were incomplete, Lin Yilong added the time and the address of a café in Swansea.

Lin Yilong continued his previous way of thinking, if he had a bargaining advantage in some things, it would be impossible not to take advantage of it, in short, it was not him who suffered in the end. Even if someone makes a harmless joke, he promises to make the person who made his joke pay more.

The location of the meeting in Swansea was also based on this consideration, and if Lin Yilong were to meet Amy, he would have spent much less time and money than Amy, who would have had to travel at least five hours by bus or four hours by train to get there.

Lin Yilong tossed and turned that night to speculate on many possible motives for Amy, but in the end he guessed nothing.

When Lin Yilong appeared at the agreed café, Amy, who was sitting in a window seat and wore a white knitted sweater and dark blue dress, remained calm and reserved on the surface, but she could be seen breathing very fluctuatingly.

Amy stood up immediately, but Lin Yilong motioned for her to sit down for a while, went to the cash register and asked for a cup of hot cocoa, put two spoonfuls of sugar, and stopped at Amy's table.

"Good morning, Amy. Lin Yilong greeted first and then sat down slowly, not in English.

"Good morning, Mr. Lin. The girl was a little nervous, forgetting for a moment what she wanted to say.

"I can do something for you. Lin Yilong came out with a pair of flat glasses that had no prescription at all, which made him look more serious.

"I'm sorry, but I just remembered to contact Mr. Lin now. Amy is still very nervous, "I remember two years ago, Mr. Lin used to say that if you have difficulties, you can call you. ”

"Yes, that's what I said. Lin Yilong frowned, he didn't like to be made a fuss about his previous promises.

"I think ......" Amy was speechless, but anxious.

"Don't be in a hurry, speak slowly. Lin Yilong got up and took a glass of warm water for Amy and put it in front of her.

Amy didn't touch the glass of water, covered her face and ran away from the door, not even taking her short coat.

Everyone in the café looked at Lin Yilong, not knowing what was going on.

Lin Yilong was also at a loss, and it took a lot of effort to find Amy, who was kneeling on the beach and crying and sobbing.

"What the hell is going on?" The sky was raining, making Amy's body wet, and Lin Yilong put Amy's coat on top of hers.

Amy, teary-eyed, explains the difficulties she encountered, and the story of a sister repeats itself.

The cost of training a ballet dancer is too high, due to the physical requirements of this profession, if the scientific training method is adopted, the cost of tuition and accommodation alone will reach 35,000 pounds, considering the length of the five-year course, local students in the UK with bursaries and arts education grants are quite acceptable, but for parents in East Asian countries, the cost of a year is unbearable. In addition, in order to catch up with the lessons, East Asian dance students usually have to find another teacher on their days off, which is an additional expense that they cannot afford. Linked to the essence of this industry of "eating youth", it suddenly feels like the future is long.

Some good-looking and active-minded students began to think about other ways out - such as Uncle Tian's daughter Samantha - as for Amy, who was originally from a family similar to Samantha, she had to give up "chasing her dreams" just because her family's savings were exhausted. On the way back, listening to Samantha talk about the background of Lin Yilong, who felt a little familiar, and comparing the two business cards given by Lin Yilong, Amy had some thoughts of her own: after a few days of hesitation, she finally had the courage to take this step.

"My parents really couldn't do anything else. Amy cried, "I ...... Now I urgently need a sum of money to pay for the tuition and accommodation fees in September, Mr. Lin, can you help me?"

Lin Yilong looked at Amy, but what he thought in his mind was not Nadia and Vera, nor Katie, but Uncle Wenjie's family in Edmonton, in their hearts, no matter how depressed and difficult it was in developed countries, they had to persevere, if they returned to China in disgrace because they couldn't get by, the blow to their spirits - or self-confidence might be even worse.

To sum up, this sentence becomes - you are good outside, and you must not drop the price in front of acquaintances.

"If you want to chase your dreams, there is nothing wrong with me. Lin Yilong whispered in Amy's ear, like a demon's whisper, "However, you have to think about it, once you make such a decision, you will only have dreams left." ”
