Back at home, Zhou Chao tossed and turned on the bed until the late hours of the night before drifting into a half-asleep state.
The next morning, still in the midst of a dream, Zhou Chao was abruptly awakened by a phone call. He groggily reached for the phone on the cabinet.
"Hello!"
"Is the big lazy pig still sleeping? Wake up! I'm right outside your door!" Jiang Li's voice came through the phone. Zhou Chao, still half-asleep, quickly got out of bed.
"You're right outside my door? I'll be right out!" Zhou Chao hurriedly put on his clothes and rushed downstairs with his phone in hand.
As soon as Zhou Chao opened the door, he saw Jiang Li, dressed in a white down jacket, pacing back and forth at the entrance, holding a bag in her arms.
January in Jingdu was still quite cold, and seeing Jiang Li's rosy cheeks from the cold and the bag in her arms, Zhou Chao's heart was filled with happiness.
