Ever since Pei Yang joined the search and rescue team at sea, Shen Mingzhu had been in a foul mood.

The familiar mothers, seeing her cold demeanor, wisely chose not to approach her, but there were always those who were oblivious—

"Yo, Mingzhu, you're frowning every day, you must be worried about your Pei Yang, right?"

"If you ask me, everyone's fate is predetermined by the heavens, worrying is useless."

"Having a man like Pei Yang, you might as well just accept your bad luck. With the sea's rough winds and waves, it's easy to lose his life in an accident."

"Once something happens to your Pei Yang, you'll be left a widow with a child to raise, how will you manage your days then—"

Seeing the undisguised schadenfreude on Shen Baolan's face, Shen Mingzhu felt that odd sensation rising unbidden in her heart again.

It was as if Shen Baolan was certain that Pei Yang would run into trouble, certain that she would end up a widow.
