"Otherwise, what can I do?"
"Time and work are the best medicine."
"That should be right. But I wish the medicine was stronger."
"Haha."
The netizen quickly went offline, and I stood by the window, realizing the rain had stopped.
Someone knocked on my door.
I hesitated for a long time before I went to open it.
It was Wen Xiaohua, who had changed out of her business suit into a dark red floral dress, with her hair down, looking quite pretty.
"I'm hungry," she said.
"Call room service, then."
"Have you been to Huizhou before?"
"No."
"Let's go eat at a street stall."
Unable to think of a reason to refuse, I agreed.
In the city after the rain, the air was salty, and the night sky was washed clean, revealing a blanket of stars.
I drove the work car, following Wen Xiaohua's directions, to the brightly lit snack street.
