Old Professor's 'Foot Spa' Lifestyle: A Story of Sadness, Laughter, and a Million Dollars

'Okay, folks, you won't believe what I heard. This old professor, right? He spends over ten grand every month at this foot spa place. Can you believe it? And his two sons, they're both studying abroad, and they ain't coming back. Sad, right? And his wife, she passed away. Poor guy, he's all alone. He even tried going abroad with his middle son, but he couldn't hack it. You know why? Because he only knows Russian! Imagine trying to order a coffee in English, it's like trying to drive a car with a bicycle! And his neighbors, they don't even talk to him. He has to wear this tag with his son's number on it in case he gets lost. How sad is that? So he comes back to China and what does he do? He goes to this foot spa place all the time! He doesn't even get a massage, he just chats with the girls and watches over things. He says these girls work hard, they're just trying to make a living. Some of them want to save up and go back home and find a good man. They're simple folks, you know, not like those fancy city people. He even tries to invite some of them to his place, but they tell him he's not a 'serious person'. So he just stays at the foot spa, eats with the girls, and enjoys the sunshine. And he says it only costs him over ten thousand a month! Can you believe that? That's what I call living the dream, folks. Living the dream!'
