Drinking by oneself_1

The air conditioning in the living room had been turned off long ago, and the cool evening breeze, coming through the half-open screen window, awakened Nian Yuyu who had been in a daze.

She rubbed her somewhat stiff arms and slowly climbed up from the couch, step by step making her way to the entryway.

As she turned on the light, the spacious living room suddenly lit up brightly as if it were broad daylight, yet it seemed even more desolate.

The house in Tai'an New City was too large, quiet, and empty; Nian Yuyu was the only person there at the moment, and inexplicably, she began to miss her cozy nest in Jing'an Garden.

The familiar ringtone of her cellphone broke the silence in the living room.

Nian Yuyu picked up the phone and answered the call.

"Yuyu, have you cleared things up with Chu You?"

The caller was Jiang Jingyun, who was still concerned about what her friend had mentioned in the morning.
