Gong Shaoying strolled aimlessly through the neighborhood. The sound of children playing could be heard.
It seemed to be noon. He could vaguely hear the sound of cooking coming from the open windows of some houses.
Immediately after, someone called out for the playful children to be home for dinner.
Under his feet was a newly paved cement path. This road seemed to have been an ordinary dirt road in the past, but after the city was built, it was transformed into a cement road.
However, it seemed to have been modified bit by bit. Therefore, the road surface had a patchy appearance that gave it a very shabby feeling.
He suddenly walked to a residence and stopped. From where he was, he could see a courtyard. The small courtyard was well-kept. Green grass, wisteria, and beautiful Chinese roses decorated the originally dilapidated courtyard.
