Chapter 408 - 74 (End of this volume)
The morning breeze, stealing a moment of cool from the summer days.
Li Zhiyuan stood beside the water tank on the second floor brushing his teeth when he happened to see Tan Wenbin, dressed in a tank top and sports shorts, running down the dam with high knee lifts, starting his morning jog for the day.
This habit, Tan Wenbin had maintained for half a year now.
Humans are truly creatures of infinite potential.
A year ago, Tan Wenbin was still a spirited young man who stole money from his mother to buy video game consoles, hid adult comics in textbooks, stashed explicit magazines under the covers, and liked to pretend to be an adult by tucking a cigarette behind his ear.
Now, he studies hard during the day and practices diligently at night, treating his forty-minute morning run as a form of clearing his mind and enjoying self-discipline.
