"I'm going downstairs."

"Why go downstairs... It's only this late..."

"Hurry up, I'm downstairs at your place."

There was a two-second silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a rustling sound mixed with Xie Baoyang's wails.

"Old Ding! I get up at 8 every day at school, and I finally get a break and can sleep in a little longer, can't you let me sleep a little longer!"

Ding Heng roared, "What are you sleeping for? Hurry up!"

Five minutes later, Xie Baoyang yawned and staggered out of the stairwell.

He had thrown on a down jacket haphazardly, his hair was sticking out in a mess, and his eyes weren't fully open yet.

He opened the passenger door and slumped back in his seat: "Where are we going..."

Ding Heng stepped on the gas: "Go online."

Xie Baoyang was thrown forward by inertia, and he grumbled as he fastened his seatbelt.

A private room for two people in an internet cafe.

Xie Baoyang leaned back in his gaming chair, picked up the coffee Ding Heng had just ordered, took a couple of sips, and finally perked up a little.

He rubbed his eyes, glanced at Ding Heng who was logging into the game, and suddenly said, "Hey, Lao Ding."

"Ok?"

"Was that Baima from yesterday really your sister?"

Ding Heng's hands didn't stop moving: "What?"

Xie Baoyang scratched his head: "I was just... asking out of curiosity."

Ding Heng said warily, "I'm warning you, don't you dare lay a finger on my sister."

Xie Baoyang immediately exploded: "Damn it, what are you thinking! I'm not a pervert, I'm not interested in girls with that kind of body type!"

What body type?

"Just...that kind of small..."

"What do you mean?"

Ding Heng put down the mouse and asked seriously, "Does liking my sister make me a pervert?"

Xie Baoyang choked: "No...that's not what I meant...I just..."

"What are you?"

"I was just saying it offhand! Old Ding, why are you in such a hurry?"

Am I in a hurry?

Aren't you in a hurry?

The two bickered and chatted on.

Xie Baoyang took a couple more sips of coffee, then suddenly remembered something: "By the way, Lao Ding, where's your girlfriend?"

Ding Heng instinctively asked, "Which one?"

"Which one??"

Xie Baoyang sat up abruptly, looking shocked: "What do you mean? Old Ding, you dated a lot of girls in college?"

Ding Heng then realized that Xie Baoyang was asking about Zhao Yanxi, since he had only met Zhao Yanxi once.

He said calmly, "They're in Zhuzhou. Can't they go home for the New Year?"

Xie Baoyang persisted: "Don't try to brush me off. Tell me honestly, how many relationships did you have in college?"

Ding Heng glanced at him: "Why are you so talkative? Like a girl."

"Me, broken?" Xie Baoyang sighed. "Comparison is the thief of joy..."

"What's wrong? Did something upset you?"

Xie Baoyang didn't say anything, and continued to sigh.

This time it was Ding Heng's turn to get interested. He put down the mouse and turned around: "Let me guess... Did your first heartbreak in college come too quickly, or did you never even have a chance to experience your first love?"

Xie Baoyang blushed and turned his head away: "Playing games, playing games..."

The morning just flew by.

The two played four or five rounds, with the winner outnumbering the loser.

Around midnight, Ding Heng's phone vibrated.

[Good Luck Xiao Jing]: Ding Heng, my instructor has something to do this afternoon and won't be practicing. What should I do next?

Ding Heng: [Positioning]

[Ding Heng]: I took a taxi here and bought a few fast food meals on the way.

【Good Luck Xiao Jing】: [Little rabbit nodding obediently.jpg]

Half an hour later, there was a gentle knock on the door of the private room.

Xie Baoyang was engrossed in the game and didn't even turn his head.

Ding Heng got up to open the door.

Wenjing stood at the door, carrying two large bags in her hands.

"Ding Heng!"

She held the bag high: "I bought three servings of the fast food you ordered. Is that enough?"

Ding Heng took it and habitually reached out to gently rub Wenjing's face: "You've worked hard, come in."

Wenjing walked into the private room, and Xie Baoyang glanced back at her briefly, only to be startled again.

Holy crap, another one!

Are there no two girls around Lao Ding who are the same?

Wenjing nodded shyly: "Hello... My name is Wenjing."

After a long pause, Xie Baoyang managed to stammer out, "Y-you... hello... Xie Baoyang."

Ding Heng took the bag, opened it, and handed one of the portions to Xie Baoyang: "Eat first, then play."

Xie Baoyang took the boxed lunch, buried his head in his food, and didn't say a word.

After finishing his meal, Xie Baoyang threw down his lunchbox and continued playing games with his headphones on.

Ding Heng leaned back in his chair and scrolled through his phone for a while.

Wenjing tidied up her lunchbox, got up and threw it into the trash can by the door, then came back and sat down quietly next to Ding Heng.

Ding Heng turned his head to look at her: "Bored?"

Wenjing shook her head: "It's not boring."

"Would you like to play some games with me?"

"I won't……"

"It's okay, watch me fight."

Ding Heng turned back to continue operating.

Wenjing was staring obediently at the screen when she suddenly heard a sound.

"thirsty."

Wenjing immediately picked up the lemon cola next to her and held it to Ding Heng's lips.

After the man finished his cola, she picked up a bag of snacks, tore it open, and handed him a piece.

Ding Heng opened his mouth and ate it.

Wenjing smiled contentedly, picked up another piece, and continued feeding.

Xie Baoyang glanced at the screen during the countdown and was immediately horrified.

Wenjing was feeding Ding Heng snacks one by one, and Ding Heng just waited with his mouth open, his eyes fixed on the screen, his fingers still typing.

The two worked together seamlessly and with incredible chemistry, clearly not the first time.

Xie Baoyang sighed and silently turned away.

MD!

Why can't I just stay home and sleep? Why do I have to come out and be tortured?

Around 2 PM, the group chat started to get lively.

Li Meng and Zhou Zhou got up one after the other and started clamoring in the group chat that they wanted to come out.

Xie Baoyang immediately responded: "Come to the internet cafe, come to the internet cafe, Lao Ding and I are here."

After confirming that someone was there to keep Xie Baoyang company, Ding Heng stood up, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "You guys have fun, I'm leaving now."

Xie Baoyang took off his headphones: "So early?"

"Something happened."

Xie Baoyang glanced at Wen Jing, his eyes conveying a meaningful look.

"Okay, okay, I understand, I understand."

Ding Heng ignored him and led Wenjing outside.

Stepping out of the internet cafe, a cold wind hit me.

Wenjing shrank her neck and pulled her down jacket tighter: "Where do we go next?"

Ding Heng led her into the car: "Let's go on a date, it's been a long time since we've had a date alone."

"A...a date?"

"What, is that not allowed?"

"Don't we spend every day together in college?"
