The Long Way Home Finds Its Light

The Long Way Home Finds Its Light Plot:

Su Xiao, who failed in business and owed a million yuan, hadn't dared return home for three years to avoid debt. Until news of her mother's "serious illness" forced her to take a train ticket and hit the road. On the hard-seat carriage, Lao Zhou—her seatmate—shared his story: he'd traveled thousands of miles with his late wife's old bag to make amends with his daughter. Su Xiao pulled out a faded note from her mother: "Come home when you're tired." When she opened the door, her mother stood in her old high school sweater, with warm soft-boiled eggs on the table—the "illness" was a trick to bring her back. And Lao Zhou's daughter was smiling at him by the door. The long journey home finally lit up with the love and courage she'd lost, glowing in the warm light.
