Chapter 272: Homecoming
Finally home!
Li Yan felt a bit of the excitement that comes with returning after a long absence, even though he hadn't been gone for long.
The fleeting old times slipped away just like that,
Turning back to look, years have hurried by.
The vast road of the horizon is your wandering,
In the constant search for companionship, it's my footsteps.
The radio in the taxi was playing a song, and the middle-aged driver was humming along off key.
Li Yan was drawn in by the lyrics, but he found that although he didn't remember them, the melody was familiar and he could hum it. It must be an old song! How old though? One he heard years ago? Or when he was a child? He couldn't remember.
...
Perhaps tomorrow, as the sun sets and weary birds return,
You will embark on the journey back home.
...
Hearing this, Li Yan felt even more nostalgic. Although it wasn't exactly "as the sun sets and weary birds return," he was nonetheless on his way home.
