Mid-December.
While the north was already covered in heavy snow, Yuecheng in the south was still hesitant to welcome winter.
Mornings were as warm as spring, afternoons hot as summer, and evenings cool as autumn—a day could cycle through three seasons, yet winter's chill refused to arrive.
Today, the sun shone brightly and a gentle breeze blew as Lai Zhiyun sat under a sunshade, merrily nibbling on chicken feet.
She was in an exceptionally good mood.
Last night, she and Zhou Liao had strolled through the supermarket, where she indulged her shopping urges with a haul of snacks, lifting her spirits from the previous evening all the way into today.
She woke up early today and joined Zhou Liao and his company's team-building group, bringing along the snacks she had bought.
Since there were mostly guys and all had experience with camping, they took care of everything from setting up tents to handling the barbecue. Lai Zhiyun didn't have to do a thing, just sit, eat, and drink.
