Firstly, I read it from Louisa M Alcott's The Little Women.

Secondly, arghh, it is spelled LaUrence, not LaWrence. And short
form is Laurie is also acceptable. 
Thirdly, yes the book is on four ladies, but it has many male
character. People who read that book may find me aspire to be like
the Laurence in that book, well....hopefully. 
Fourthly, thank you shan cai for opening this thread. And ever you
wish for a Daoming Shi, feel free to contact me, coz I got a friend
who look like him.
