"To have an open mind, to leave no regrets, to give an eye for an eye! That's how life gets exciting."
The faucet gushed with water. After washing his hands, Wen Xishu straightened his rolled-up sleeves. He still wore that smile:
"Alright, let's get going. Trust me, at least for today, the girl with a father will definitely win."
Nini stared at Wen Xishu, as if driven by some unseen force, she actually nodded.

The Seventh Ring.
When the bus stopped at the border between the Sixth Ring and the Seventh Ring, Wen Xishu felt the change.
Visually, the Seventh Ring appeared even more "expansive" than the Sixth Ring.
There were no skyscrapers, no apartments, and the view consisted of low self-built shanties packed closely together like scabs on the ground.
Even the smell had changed.
The air of the Sixth Ring had greasy smoke, vegetation, and the warmth of human life. The air in the Seventh Ring carried a stench mixed with decay, urine, cheap alcohol, and rust.
