Tide Rises, the Guesthouse Lights Shine Bright

A seaside guesthouse faces a night of approaching storms. Su Tang, Lu Heng, and Xu Zhou check every corner of the property for hidden hazards, one by one. From the front hall's floor-to-ceiling windows to the guest room window frames to the kitchen prep area, they carefully adjust door and window latches, seal weatherstripping, and clear the walking routes. Every change is made in small steps, retested again and again to avoid creating new problems. As the rain intensifies, the roof drainage begins to show signs of clogging. The three suit up in protective gear and climb onto the roof platform, clearing fallen leaves from the gutters by hand. Night and sea breeze wrap around the whole guesthouse as they safeguard its reception safety with rigor and practicality, quietly waiting for the dawn after the storm.
