Originally intending to sleep in, Zhou Chao was awakened by the continuous sound of waves outside the window.
Lying on the sofa on the balcony, gazing at the distant sea horizon, the orange-red morning sun slowly rose from below the sea level, casting the sky in a beautiful orange-red hue.
The sea breeze brushed against his face, giving him a refreshing feeling.
"I must have been silly. I should have closed the windows last night. I wonder how I managed to fall asleep."
Zhou Chao shook his head helplessly, realizing that he initially found the sound of the waves quite pleasant.
As time passed quietly, Zhou Chao fell asleep on the chair without realizing it, even a hint of drool escaping his lips.
"All those most touching movie plots say love can transcend life and death!"
The phone rang for about ten seconds before Zhou Chao, still drowsy, woke up and groped around the table to answer the call.
