Ethiopia, Addis Ababa International Airport!
Twenty-year-old Qiao Liang, lugging two large suitcases, chased after a slightly chubby girl, wearing an apologetic smile and repeatedly saying sorry.
An elderly couple followed behind them, the two senior citizens holding hands and smilingly watching the younger pair's antics without interfering.
After receiving a call from his older brother, Qiao Liang didn't ask his classmates to change their flight tickets; instead, he decided to come over first with his girlfriend, Tong Tong.
As a second-generation poor boy accustomed to splitting a penny in two, even though his older brother sent him money every month, it hadn't changed his thrifty habits.
From the capital city to Guangzhou on an express train, to take care of his girlfriend, Qiao Liang gritted his teeth and bought two sleeper tickets.
