The next morning, on a sunny beach, accompanied by Aphrodite, Long Linger was playing with Sunny on the shore.
Underneath the umbrella's shade, Long Linger wore sunglasses, her eyes slightly narrowed as she looked towards the sea. Sunny lay quietly in her arms, his little behind uncovered, unexpectedly well-behaved today, neither noisy nor restless.
There weren't many people on the beach, only a few tourists holding onto life rings, bobbing in the waves. Aphrodite had chosen this place for safety reasons, picking a more secluded beach. Through the tinted sunglasses, Long Linger saw two agents on either side pretending to be tourists while conducting security patrols. Further away, Lin Zhi lounged against a car in black swimming trunks, wearing a white sun-protective long coat, seemingly casually enjoying the view of the sea with binoculars.
A gentle breeze blew past, slightly lifting the strands of hair at Long Linger's temples, her mind somewhat wandering.
