Origin Story
话说唐朝时期，有一位年轻的书生名叫李白，他从小就酷爱读书，常常废寝忘食。一日，李白为了赶写一篇重要的文章，通宵达旦地伏案苦读，直到天亮才疲惫地睡去。当太阳高照时，他的母亲前来叫他起床吃饭，可李白却睡眼惺忪，迷迷糊糊地应着母亲，一副刚睡醒的模样。母亲见他如此疲惫，便心疼地说：“孩子，你太辛苦了，要多注意休息啊！”李白揉了揉睡眼惺忪的眼睛，勉强地笑了笑，继续投入到他的学习中。他那睡眼惺忪的样子，也成为了他勤奋学习的一个见证。
Once upon a time, during the Tang Dynasty, there lived a young scholar named Li Bai, who loved reading since childhood and often neglected food and sleep for it. One day, Li Bai worked late into the night, writing an important essay, only falling asleep at dawn. When the sun was high, his mother came to call him for breakfast, but Li Bai was still sleepy-eyed and muddled, a typical appearance of someone just awakened. Seeing how tired he was, his mother said, "Child, you are working too hard, you must take more rest!" Li Bai rubbed his sleepy eyes, smiled weakly, and immediately immersed himself in his studies. His sleepy-eyed appearance became a testament to his diligent studies.
