Mu Weibai pats her shoulder: "Go to sleep, I have to go out for a bit."
Mu Qiubai suddenly asks him: "Brother, will you always believe me?"
Mu Weibai nods: "Of course, you are my sister... I will always protect you."
Mu Weibai gets up to leave.
Mu Qiubai closes her eyes, her hands at her side, gripping the bedsheet so tightly that it feels like it might tear.

Before the day has fully broken, Kang Chen wakes up with the first bugle sound.
Maintained for many years, this habit is difficult to break.
When he is at home, there is no morning exercise or bugle call, so Kang Chen would sleep a bit more while embracing his wife.
But in the division, once the sharp bugle call is heard, Kang Chen would wake up.
Kang Chen still vividly remembers when he first joined the camp, he was punished to run 5000 meters as he was slow to get up at the sound of the morning bugle.
He is young, just a few hours of rest can rejuvenate him.
