Due to the jet lag, as well as the fact that Qin Ran was not too sleepy, Qin Ran woke up around 3 AM at night when it was time for him to go to America. Seeing that Qin Ran had woken up, Gu Lingfeng decided to let her get dressed so he could take her to see the sunrise.

Carrying two slices of bread each, the two of them slowly walked along the gravel path. After walking for about two kilometers, they finally arrived at the shore. Qin Ran's view was that it was Gu Lingfeng's fault for being tricked. With such a good nature to enjoy, there was no need to miss it out because of anger. Therefore, Qin Ran still maintained the attitude of ignoring Gu Lingfeng, but felt happy about everything around him.

When the two of them came out, the sky was still dark, but by four o'clock, the sky had already begun to darken. Qin Ran and Gu Lingfeng were lying on their respective recliners, looking at the sea and sky in the distance. Although the sky was still dark, they could still feel the cool air and smell the sea in front of them.

It was five o'clock in the morning. The sky lit up half the sky, and the golden half circle slowly rose up from the sky. Even the sea water looked golden. Qin Ran covered his mouth in surprise.

The rising sun gave her a shocking feeling. Qin Ran suddenly felt that the light seemed to pierce into a very soft place in her heart. Before she knew it, a stream of tears had appeared on Qin Ran's face.

When Gu Lingfeng saw this, he didn't know what to do. He used his hand to wipe her face and gently wiped away her tears, "You look good, right? Why are you crying?"

Qin Ran didn't answer and just calmly watched the sun rise. Gu Lingfeng helped her to wipe away her tears and sat to the side, not saying anything. He quietly accompanied Qin Ran on watching the sunrise.

As the sun rose higher and higher, the sea level also changed from a golden yellow to a somewhat blinding reflection. Gu Lingfeng turned around and realized that Qin Ran was actually leaning against the cold chair and had fallen asleep once again. There were still wet tears on his face and a happy smile on the corner of his mouth.

Since Qin Ran was already asleep, Gu Lingfeng had nothing else to do. He silently looked at Qin Ran, every corner of her body was his favorite place. Gu Lingfeng couldn't help but think, how good would it be if he could stay like this forever.

Whether it was the sea scenery or the sunrise, none of them could attract Gu Lingfeng's attention. His gaze only rested on Qin Ran, because the weather was relatively cool here, Qin Ran only wore a very thin long sleeve, plus a sun protective coat, sleeping on the deck chair, half of her clavicle was exposed, her pure white skin was like snow, Gu Lingfeng did not want to disturb her, his heart did not have any other thoughts, he just silently looked at her.

When Qin Ran woke up, he felt that the sun was very bright. On closer look, the light of the sun was no longer as gentle as it was in the morning, but rather gave people a feeling of summer. Qin Ran, who had already started preparing cotton-padded jackets in A City, immediately felt that his whole body was light and light. Qin Ran turned his head and looked at Gu Lingfeng, only to realize that Gu Lingfeng was staring at him. Qin Ran blushed when he saw Gu Lingfeng staring at him, and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Look at you." Gu Lingfeng said without hiding anything.

Qin Ran didn't know how to answer, so she could only ignore him and stood up. She bent over and scooped up a handful of golden sand from the ground. Gu Lingfeng, who was standing to the side, saw her joyful expression and said, "If I knew you would want to come see the sea like this, wouldn't you have just told me?"

Hearing this, Qin Ran stopped playing. She slowly straightened up, her back facing Gu Lingfeng. She looked at the sea in the distance, the corners of her clothes fluttering in the cool sea breeze.

"What's wrong?" Gu Lingfeng asked.

"Do you know why I cried when I saw the sunrise?" Qin Ran asked. Gu Lingfeng didn't say anything, waiting for Qin Ran's next words.

"The inside of the prison is different from the outside. In the prison, there are only dark days, barely enough light to penetrate in. I work non-stop in the workshop every day. I need to repeat countless times every day for dry, boring, and tiresome movements. "When I first went to the prison, I was a newbie. Everyone bullied me then."

Because the conditions in the prison aren't good, the food I eat every day can at most be considered as food, but it doesn't have much nutrition, and most of it is not enough for me to eat. Sometimes, other people would deduct a little of my food, and during that time in the prison, I was thinking, when will the day come to an end, every day, the gray walls, the gloomy air, wanting to make friends in that place, it's really a daydream. If I wanted to resist, they would work together to push all the responsibility onto me.

Today is the first time I feel so close to the sun. For me, that light means hope, that I can see the sun in prison is an extravagant hope, not to mention what it is like now. So when I see the sunrise, I feel extremely happy.

This was the first time Qin Ran had brought up the issue of him being in prison. Before that, Qin Ran always avoided the topic as if it was a taboo.

Gu Lingfeng stood at the side, not saying a word. Although he had repeatedly instructed the people within the police station to take care of Qin Ran, he didn't expect that Qin Ran would still suffer so much in prison.

To such a proud Qin Ran, the pain in her heart must have been a deep blow to her.

Thinking about how Qin Ran had suffered so much in prison and cried because of a single sunrise, Gu Lingfeng felt extremely guilty and guilty. It was all because of his negligence that he let those people enter the prison and harm Qin Ran in such a way. It was all his fault, he did not protect her well.

Gu Lingfeng walked behind Qin Ran and hugged her in pain. For the first time, Qin Ran didn't struggle at all, allowing him to hold her like this.

Closing her eyes and mentioning her experiences, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. The dark gray wall, the pressure that made her unable to breathe, the gazes that were aimed at her everywhere, seemed to have returned to her body.

Not only did Qin Ran not resist, he had never obediently leaned his weight on her back before. He let Gu Lingfeng hug her like this, as if this would give her some courage and help her share of the pressure.
