Experiencing Interruptions?

Never Disappear

In a village called Tai-gia-ha lived a well-known and romantic fool. People called him “Yao”. The fact that he was well-known was because people worried about whom he got to spend his life with. Even so, he somehow owned lots of stories with someone.
In an evening three months ago, Yao got lost because he ran an errand for his dad to buy him tofu pudding for his childhood's sweetheart.
For these months without Yao, Xia and Shuei have lived in the contradiction and self-blaming of reuniting each other and losing Yao. In the meantime, Yao met a troupe director named “the bearded man”. In the end, how did Yao, seemingly growing up in one night after leaving his home, get back to Tai-gia-ha?
It took them exactly three months to witness the most incredible value in humanity of the four of them. They managed to display the best part about standing on one’s dignity, and we learned a lesson from them to look at life through a different perspective.
