The land Lin Yi bought was spread over 1.5 acres, and the cave was located in a small valley on the left side of the land.
The cave was spread over an area of about 300 square meters, and the height of the cave was enough to build a two-story house. Since it was covered only on two sides, the sunlight streamed into the cave well.
Early the next morning, Lin Yi ate steamed buns made by the village chief's wife and rode his tricycle to the land because he wanted to clear the land before building the house.
Not only that, he also wanted to investigate the cave further. Because when building a house inside a cave, one must be careful about its durability and safety.
Lin Yi looked around the cave and around it to see where to start cleaning.
He didn't think it would be a good idea to stay at the village chief's house until the house was completely finished, so he decided to finish cleaning a small part of the cave first. Then he could figure out a way to stay in that part later.
"Sigh..."
"It seems like there's more cleaning to do in this part of the cave than in the rest of the cave."
A house had been built in this small part before. The previous house was made of bricks and mud. Because of this, the walls were very crumbling, and Lin Yi realized that although it was easy to remove, it would take a lot of work.
However, Lin Yi began to work. He first removed the broken bricks that had fallen to the ground and put them aside.
Lin Yi initially thought of throwing them away but later decided to put them aside, thinking that they might be needed when building a house.
Next, he broke down the remaining walls of the cave. The left side of the small part of the cave was covered with natural stone, while the right side and the front of the cave were only made of bricks. Although both walls were broken in half, most of them were intact.
So the next thing Lin Yi did was to use the big hammer he had brought from the town yesterday to break down the remaining two walls.
It took Lin Yi about two hours to break down the walls and remove them. He worked for those two hours without stopping for a moment, so Lin Yi decided to take a break.
Meanwhile, Lin Yi casually checked his social media account. That's when he saw that his latest post had received a lot of likes and comments.
"Wow... That's so beautiful!"
"Where can we in the city see such a beautiful sunrise?"
"Blogger, where did you take this photo?"
"Please...tell me the place. I also want to see a beautiful sunrise on vacation this year."
Lin Yi slowly read the comments. Most of the comments asked about his whereabouts, and there were some special comments among them.
"Blogger seems happy."
"Congratulations, Blogger!"
"Be happy today and always."
Those comments might seem inappropriate to someone who sees them, but Lin Yi knew that they were people who knew him well. Seeing them made his heart feel warm.
The next time Lin Yi casually checked the trending news, he saw that the promotional video for his third sister, Su Qing's, latest drama had reached number one.
Su Qing is one of the most talented actresses and singers in the country. She has won the awards for the most talented and popular actress for many years in a row, and she has more than 20 million fans. Therefore, no matter what role she plays, that movie or drama will definitely be among the trending news in hot searches.

Lin Yi clicked on the video and watched it casually. The video mainly showed Su Qing wearing an ancient red dress and dancing a sword dance that would captivate anyone's heart as soon as she saw it under the moonlight in a bamboo forest, and, in addition, it included several body-stirring fight scenes.
"Sigh... The third sister is beautiful as always."
Even though the video was a short video of about 3 minutes, the response it received was overwhelming. Like everyone else, Lin Yi was surprised to see the video and did not forget to give it a like.
Although Lin Yi lived in the Su family for about 6 years, he met Su Qing very rarely. Either because Su Qing was busy with her work or because the fake young master of the Su family, Lin Yi, did something to stop her from meeting her.
This theory was valid not only for Su Qing but also for the other siblings of the Su family. Because of this, Lin Yi did not have much affection for them, but he tried his best to get their attention.
Because he wanted a family of his own. But before that dream could come true, it was shattered in a way he did not expect.
"Why do you think about the old things?"
"Lin Yi, don't think about them. You are about to start a new life now."
"Be strong and think about the future and work."
Lin Yi told himself as old events slowly flooded his mind. Lin Yi put the phone aside and got up to start working again.
Since he had already completely removed the walls of the small part of the cave, all he had left to clean was the mess inside.
Inside the cave were plastic and glass bottles, broken plates and bowls, and tables, chairs, and beds made of decayed wood. Lin Yi threw the bottles, plates, and bowls out of the cave, intending to dispose of them later, and set the wood aside so that it could be used as firewood for cooking later.
