Exploration (Wisely Story Collection Edition)

For years, Bai Su has been troubled by her mother's unexplained departure. The only one who knows the secret, Bai Laoda, refuses to reveal a word. To find her mother, Bai Su ventures deep into Miao territory. When she returns, she mysteriously asks Wisely to carefully watch a videotape recording the life of a wild girl named Hong Ling. Who is Bai Su's mother? What unspeakable connection does she have with Hong Ling? And who is causing Wisely such heartache? The story seems more aptly named 'Exploring Secrets' as it chronicles Bai Su and her brother's quest to uncover their mother's secret. But with Bai Laoda's reflection on the danger of human hearts, calling it 'Exploration' is also fitting. This story is only the first part, perhaps the first of a trilogy.
