On the long street, Tang San suddenly turned back. Yu Xiaogang stood where the lantern lights grew dim.
At that moment, the scene seemed to freeze.
Several breaths passed before Tang San said in disbelief, "Teacher, is it really you?"

Tang Hao frowned.
Even a stray dog wouldn't stay here if someone offered it the place.
"Please don't mind those details. Can you tell me why you've
