When the four of them returned home, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. Yang Xi immediately set to work setting up the surveillance equipment and wiring, while the three women bustled around eagerly to help, handing him water and wiping away his sweat. Yang Xi felt as though he wasn't nearly as busy as the three of them combined.
The surveillance system, which would normally have taken a single person two hours to install, ended up taking four hours thanks to the three women's well-meaning disruptions. By the time night fell, it was finally completed and successfully brought online. After having Aige and the others practice using it a few times, they finally sat down for dinner.
Because they had helped that plump auntie earlier today, she had sent them off with plenty of food, so Daniya only needed to heat up some leftovers for them to eat. "To celebrate you starting your new job tomorrow, let's have a drink," Aige suggested. The mere mention of drinking sent a shiver of lingering fear through Yang Xi. "Let's keep it to a minimum. The military probably has a zero-tolerance policy for alcohol, my tolerance is poor, and showing up with alcohol on my breath on my very first day won't look good." At Yang Xi's suggestion, the four of them had just one glass each.
