When Han Ruochen returned home, she knew that there was something weird going on. Even though the air was thick with the scent of coal smoke and drying shrimps, Han Ruochen couldn't help but frown. She wasn't heading to the docks yet because the modifications would take some time, and Old Man Wu, even with all his efforts, could deliver the fishing boat by the day after tomorrow at best.
However, even though the boat wouldn't be delivered right away, Han Ruochen still wanted to go to the shore with her traps, which was why she returned home to grab a change of clothes before going to her grandmother's.
"Are you going back home?" Han Ruochen asked her brother, who returned to the village with her. She thought that the man would go back home once she was done with her work, but surprisingly, he came with her to the fishing village.
