He had just finished his study as a postgraduate and had received his master degree. He was about to join the aerospace industry, and had a promising future ahead of him.

"It's dangerous out at the border. Please stay with me at all times," Tayson reminded her.
"Okay." She looked at the scenery passing by the window, hiding the slight loss deep in her eyes.
D Town was very small, but it was lively. The streets were crowded with tourists and vendors who spoke non-standard Mandarin.
