That night, Ji Xue and Ji Yue didn't sleep at all.
After Ji Xue had finished calling her mother, packed her luggage, and made sure she had enough money, she just sat alone on the floor of her room, staring at her cell phone.
The cell phone she was using was a new one she had bought before going to work at Taifeng Building, secretly purchased for her by her grandmother with money she had saved.
Her grandmother was over seventy, living alone in the village, using a smartphone that was even slower than the old one that took two minutes to open an app, which was passed down from her aunt.
But her grandmother took the money she had saved over many years and entrusted someone to pick out a new phone for her, rushing to their house the day before she bought her high-speed rail ticket to leave the county, carrying a small bag in her shaky hands, and without a word, stuffed the bag into her hands.
