Time hurried on, never pausing for anyone.
In the blink of an eye, it was the last day of 2012.
At sunset, Wang Chen rode his old-fashioned bicycle out of Shangma Old Village, heading toward the city.
It couldn't be helped. He was still under eighteen and couldn't get a driver's license, so he could only use this bicycle for transportation.
