Fang Cheng felt relieved as he walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the grayish scene outside.
In the distance, the sea and sky merged into one.
At the end of the beach, a solitary white lighthouse stood in the wind and rain, like a silent sentinel.
Fang Cheng stared at it, recalling the "sentinel" he had stationed at the other end of the city.
It's time to inform Xiao Shuai to take care of the aftermath.
..................
Meanwhile, in the village within Jiangbei City, inside an old and shabby house.
Xiao Shuai sat at the dining table, slurping white porridge.
On the table was a plate of pickled vegetables and a steamer full of steaming meat buns.
"Ren, eat slowly."
Opposite him, Li Guifen listened with her head turned, a kindly smile on her face:
"Why didn't you go to the construction site to work today? And you bought meat buns, they're so expensive. If you want to eat them, just tell Mom, I'll buy meat to make them for you."
"Mom, just enjoy your food."
