Ningrui had been staring at the ceiling of white-washed cedar for what seemed like hours. The room was so big, he thought, 'I could live here.' He rubbed his bleary eyes, squinting against the sunlight streaming in through the large bay windows set behind the mahogany desk in the middle of his room.The room was big enough that he could have a separate bedroom and still have enough space for a walk-in closet and a full-sized --bathroom. It was big enough that he could run around and not bump into anything.
