Jiang Jiu sat on the beach, silently watching the rolling waves.
It turns out that the sea at this time is so dark, just like spilled ink, yet when the waves rise, there's a noticeable streak of white.
The boatman noticed her and called her to sit inside, "If you sit there all night, you'll catch a cold. Come in, and when daylight comes, I'll take you, okay?"
The boatman was kind, seeing a young girl looking so lost, naturally he was worried.
The boatman's wife came out with a kettle and said, "Have some ginger tea. If you're hungry, there's instant noodles."
Jiang Jiu thanked them and obediently sat on a little stool, "Thank you, you can go rest. Don't mind me, I'm fine."
The boatman's wife smiled, "We won't rest. The fishing boat over there will come back soon. We are waiting to help unload."
Upon asking, Jiang Jiu learned that someone in their family had also taken a fishing boat out, and they were waiting to help unload the catch. Their schedule was different.
