Zhou Sheng got up and sat on the bed listlessly. He and Yu Hao just stared at each other.

"Let's play a game ba." Zhou Sheng said, "Call Kaikai for a game."

Yu Hao called Chen Yekai, but he didn't pick up. Yu Hao thought, crap, is he sleeping? Not a moment later, Chen Yekai replied to his WeChat message, "I don't have good reception here, you guys go ahead."

Zhou Sheng, "Talk to him, don't let him sleep."

Yu hao chatted idly with Chen Yekai intermittently, and Chen Yekai also responded every so often. Their messages were spaced about five to ten minutes apart in their conversation. Rather than being in the United States, Yu Hao felt that Chen Yekai was on Saturn instead.

Not long after, the group chat that Yu Hao, Zhou Sheng, and Fu Liqun were part of began to light up with messages. Inside it was a selfie that Fu Liqun and Cen Shan had taken at night by a river.

"Pei!" Zhou Sheng said, "I'm quitting the group!"

Yu Hao, "Congratulations!"

Cen Shan sent a sweet voice message in the group, "I'll come see you guys some other day."

Zhou Sheng pressed the voice key, "It's good that you guys got back together."

Cen Shan, "Zhou Sheng, when will you......"

Zhou Sheng cut it off halfway. Yu Hao didn't react and just played Cen Shan's complete voice message.

"Zhou Sheng, when will you start dating too, un? You know what I mean."

Zhou Sheng said into his phone, "Shan Jie, I'm really quitting the group this time."

Yu Hao began laughing. At first he didn't understand what Cen Shan meant, but after coming to a sudden realization, both of them were a little embarrassed.

In this group of four, Cen Shan only asked Zhou Sheng "when will you start dating" and didn't tease Yu Hao at all......

In the end, Zhou Sheng suddenly said, "How're things on Kaikai's side?"

"He's still there." Yu Hao said.

"Sleep ba." Zhou Seng said, "See you in the dream."

Both of them were a bit sleepy. They laid down separately, and Zhou Sheng continued, "Don't be afraid, we'll come save you now."

Yu Hao wanted to say something else at that moment, but held back in the end. If there are words left unsaid, then he'll still be able to eat chicken later. But once spoken, he might not be able to eat the chicken anymore.

Yu Hao drifted in and out of slumber. The effects of the caffeine from the coffee he drank during the day hadn't waned, but then he felt Zhou Sheng reach over with his hand and gently pat his forehead. Yu Hao then fell into the dream.

Zhou Sheng was standing in front of the Golden Crow Wheel clad in a suit of armor.

Yu Hao, "He hasn't slept yet?"

Zhou Sheng frowned as he shook his head, "We could wake up and wait awhile longer? It's only 1pm on his side."

"What would happen if a situation like this occurs?" Yu Hao asked.

But this time, instead of Zhou Sheng, the Golden Crow Wheel erupted with a bright flare that engulfed Yu Hao's body and answered him - the answer rushed directly into Yu Hao's consciousness.
