Commander Duan remained where he stood, watching the small scene unfold before him. For a moment, he had forgotten the wave of exhaustion that had hit him.
His beloved twins had showered careful attention on the little boy whose life changed in a single night. Pride filled his chest slowly, like the gentle dawn hues shimmering over the sea.

Even in a world that had stripped away human values, his twins still chose compassion. They were proof that their family did not seek vengeance on the innocent.
Contrary to most people's belief, Commander Duan truly had no intention of expelling the Jia family after demoting Deputy Commander Jia from his honorable status to a traitor.
Deputy Commander Jia's elderly parents could barely leave their rooms these days, and his wife had aged a decade in the span of a few days. The little boy had also only just begun to smile again.
