Afternoon.
The blazing sun radiated heat, and the weather had grown a little hot.
Though it was still spring, this place was much closer to the equator, so it was naturally warmer than inland.
Only after boarding did Dong Xuebin feel the coolness of the economy-class air conditioning. Holding his boarding pass, he looked around before finding a window seat and sitting down.
