    Summary

    After Yang Wenli comes home from the incident at El Facil and finds himself an overnight hero, he struggles to cope with his newfound fame. Suddenly, he's hounded by the press, and everyone thinks that he's someone he's not. As Yang's professional image is polished to a mirror sheen, his personal life falls apart, and the distance between The Hero of El Facil and Yang Wenli only grows greater.

    “The fleet PR people would prefer an everyman hero. But I think there’s only so far that can carry a paper. An element of mystery— that sells. ”

    “Why are you telling me all this?”

    “I feel bad for you.” She didn’t sound it. “Some people are born famous, and some people achieve fame that they’ve been looking for. They’re prepared for what it entails.”

    “But I’ve had greatness thrust upon me."

    “Exactly. It’s a hard thing, thrust upon you.”

    Belatedly, he realized that she was making a dirty joke, and she was waiting with a smile to see if he would react. If he were better at this, he would have made a comment about her doing the thrusting. But instead, he just said, “I really would prefer, uh, not that.”

    “Perfect, Mr. Yang. I’m happy to keep that kind of scandal out of the papers.”
