Anyway, there is nothing waiting for you, and there is no need to do anything urgently. After Fan Baosheng turned 40, he began to be grateful. He had mornings like this almost every day. He usually wakes up at 4 o'clock in the morning, calmly recovers in bed, and then gets up to wash up. He would walk to the balcony, which was not open and was sealed with transparent aluminum alloy windows. Two windows were left open for ventilation, visually becoming a long and narrow small room. There is a wooden shelf with a few pots of flowers and plants placed on the upper floors, and some books and papers piled low. Next to the shelf is a low mahogany desk.
