One is Wang Jiamei, a 16-year-old mainland girl, who followed her remarried mother to Hong Kong, speaking poor Cantonese and not fitting in.
The other is Ding Zicong, a fat boy with a miserable childhood, who barely made ends meet by driving a truck in his early twenties. The blow of a broken heart left him devastated.
Jiamei chose a beautiful way to leave, suffocating to death in joy. It was the fat boy who helped her complete it.
"It turns out that such a thin person also has so much fat. There is a form but no spirit, a spirit but no soul."
The damp and cramped public housing, the dirty and narrow streets, this is another side of Hong Kong. Excluding the shining Victoria Harbour and the towering office buildings, the people in the story are like lonely wandering souls in this city. They don't have rooms with a view, but only loneliness that is more terrible than death. 0 reply
