he girl called Angel was a rich girl living in a famous family (The Wong family), her parents were
doctors who had a lot of money and her home big like a palace with different facilities such as
ral different styles swimming pools and indoor sports center in Beijing. The house was located
on the left of the Great Wall. The boy, however, called Oliver was a poor orphan who lived with
his thin sick pale auntie, a shoemaker in a tiny, dirty room just on the right of the Great Wall.
On one sunny cloudless Sunday, after lunch time, Angel went to the Great Wall for a walk with her friendly
same aged sweet servant and also her best lovely friend, May. All a sudden, one of Angel's new fashioned high
heel shoes was totally broken in a rough rocky road. When she felt embarrassing and helpless, a handsome
young boy held her and brought her to a chair gently. Do you know who was the young boy? Yes, he was Oliver.
O
“
Are you alright?” said Oliver.
“
I’m okay, but how can I go back home with a broken shoe?” said Angel.
“
Let’s go to my auntie’s home, she is a shoemaker, she can help you.” said Oliver.
After that, Oliver took off his shoes and put on to Angel’s feet. He led Angel to his auntie’s home with his
bare foot.
There were some new but cheap shoes in auntie’s home. Oliver let her choose anyone without asked any
money.
At that time, Angel felt that Oliver was a very kind person, although he was a poor boy, he was still very
helpful and generous. On the other hand, Oliver also found that Angel was very sweet and polite. When they
looked at each other, finally they fell in love. They promised to meet each other on every Sunday on the Great
Wall. They left each other with smile.
It seemed for a long time to the next Sunday. In the light of morning sun, we could see a reflection of a very
pretty girl from her golden pink mirror who was in the silver long dress, red earrings and golden headband.
Angel was going to meet Oliver. Firstly, she wanted to be dressed normally so that she looked same like Oliver.
However, she changed her mind, she wanted to meet him beautifully. But, while she was about to leave her
home to her destination, the Great Wall, her father prohibited strongly. It was because he had already known the
relationship of Angel and Oliver. He locked Angel inside her room. Angel cried loudly but nobody dare to
release her.
After that, his father went to the Great Wall and found that poor boy, Oliver. Angel’s father met Oliver and
lie to him that Angel had already married to a rich man and she will not come here. When Oliver heard that he
was very sad. He couldn’t believe and breathless. He jumped off from the Great Wall and hurt himself seriously.
Her father opened the door of Angel’s room after he went back home. Angel rushed to the Great Wall
immediately, however she could not see Oliver. Then she went to the home of Oliver’s auntie but she could not
find anyone too. Angel went to auntie’s home several times but couldn’t meet anyone. She didn’t know that
Oliver and his auntie were in the hospital.
From that time, Angel went to the Great Wall every day in the morning and went back home with tears and
disappointment. Years after years, although there were many young gentlemen chased her, she wanted no one
but Oliver.
Ten years later, one of Angel’s uncles died in USA. She then went there to attend the funeral. Before she left
USA, she went to a shopping mall to buy some presents. When she past a very beautiful shoe shop called
Angel’s shoes, she was attracted by a pair of shoes. She found these shoes very familiar. Then she went inside.
She looked at the shoes and found that they were old but pretty. She wanted to buy them but the saleslady said
they were not for sell. They were belonged to her boss. The saleslady said they were the treasure of her boss and
they related to a sad love story.
Suddenly, a tall man stood behind Angel. When she turned her head around, she found a handsome man with
tears in his eyes stared at her with smile.
Yes, he was Oliver. After he jumped off from the Great Wall, he hurt very much. The ambulance took him to
the hospital. He stayed in the hospital for one year. After he left the hospital, he worked very hard and studied
shoe design. Finally, he became a famous shoe designer and opened many stores in USA. Although there were
many beautiful ladies wanted to be his wife but he wanted no one but Angel.
After so many years, they finally met each other. So they hugged and began their happy life together from that
happy enjoyable moment.
