Chapter 519: Day Five
In the seclusion of the mountains, Chen Nuo sat by the edge of the woods, watching the sunrise and sunset, the interchanging dawn and dusk. The morning brought the rising sun, the evening the glow of twilight, and the night a sky filled with a tapestry of stars.
Suddenly feeling sentimental, he took out his mobile phone to snap a photo of the starry sky and sent it home.
At that time, mobile phones didn't have WeChat; one could only send pictures via MMS.
After sending it, he quickly received a reply from Lu Xixi, which was a photo of his daughter lying in her crib, sucking on a pacifier.
Then, a text message followed: "All is well at home; don't worry. Looking forward to your early return."
Chen Nuo sighed, putting the phone away.
Beneath the night sky, outside the dormitory near the school construction site, a small table was laden with barbecue and cold dishes. On the ground lay an almost empty crate of beer.
