Time is like a funnel, turned upside down, memories rush back all at once.
Back then, Grandpa had passed away, and Bai Zhi's high school exam results were disappointing. Alone in a tiny house, she didn't know what to do.
She could only go to many restaurants to wash dishes and work.
She met Xu Yan…
Xu Yan was like a beam of light, filling the void left by Bai Zhi's family members. One loved cooking, the other was a bartender.
They worked together and learned together.
Bai Zhi met masters of culinary and tea arts, while Xu Yan diligently studied bartending, and his family owned a distillery.
Back then, they lived together in a basement, eating the dishes Bai Zhi practiced cooking. Sometimes they were burnt, but Xu Yan ate them as if they were the finest meals.
Bai Zhi thought perhaps without Xu Yan she wouldn't have persevered to the end.
It was because of Xu Yan that she received sunshine-like warmth.
They were family, forever a family.
