After nearly three months apart,
he had returned to the unit, yet things seemed the same yet different.
Yang Peimin had moved back into Shen Yiguang's previously cramped quarters, but what was different now was that almost all the neighbors had moved to the new dormitory building.
It made her feel like she was living in a building all by herself.
It was terrible, she was afraid of ghosts.
When she arrived at her quarters, it was past three in the afternoon, a time that usually bustled with activity, but now it felt profoundly solitary.
Yang Peimin said to Xiao Xu, "I'm thinking of moving some stuff over to the new dormitory today, and I'll need your help to get there."
Xiao Xu agreed readily, "No worries, Sister-in-law. Our boss made us promise, your concerns are our concerns. Just let me know what needs moving, and I'll handle it. There are other brothers waiting on standby, we can even move large furniture."
