If he hadn't gambled, he wouldn't have been chosen by He Feiyi to design Xinglong Restaurant, and he wouldn't have disappointed Wan Qiqi so much.
Niu Yi stumbled and ran through the streets, startling many pedestrians.
Under the sunlight, raindrops fell silently, soaking Niu Yi's clothes.
He slipped and fell hard to the ground.
The mud not only soaked Niu Yi's clothes, but also left marks on his face.
Niu Yi lay on the ground, pounding his fists hard, water droplets sliding down his face, indistinguishable as to whether they were rain or tears.
