After Qin Ziwen finished giving his instructions, he left with Qin Ziwu.
Li Yue watched them go before turning his gaze away.
He sat on a damp rock nearby, staring blankly at the river's surface.
The normally sunny and cheerful young man was unusually quiet.
'I can't believe so many families are willing to follow Brother Qin.'
Li Yue sighed inwardly.
'Then again, for someone as kind as Brother Qin, it's only normal that people would want to follow him.'
'It's just that the other families aren't single individuals. Even Dr. Zhao has another person in his family. I'm the only one fighting alone.'
As if sensing its master's low spirits, the large Golden Retriever panted as it trotted over and licked his cheek.
Li Yue wiped the slobber from his face, laughing as he cursed, "You stink."
He hugged the Golden Retriever, a warmth spreading through his heart. 'I almost forgot about you. You're my family too. I'll work hard with you, and we'll survive in this world together.'
