When Pan Zhi's phone call came, Jiang Cheng was still sleeping as if he was in hibernation, and it continued to sound for nearly half a day before he bewilderedly answered. "... hmm?"

"Fuck, I just knew this would happen," Pan Zhi said. "Open your snobby eyes and look at what time it is."

"Four o'clock?" Jiang Cheng woke up, put the phone in front of his face to see the time but his eyes had yet to clear up—a blur, it was.

"It's three-thirty already!" Pan Zhi said. "I knew you would do something like this so I'm calling you in advance."

"There's still time," Jiang Cheng sat up. "I will leave in a bit and wait for you at the station."

"Which exit?" Pan Zhi asked.

"There's only one exit altogether." Jiang Cheng glanced out of the window, and through the dirty glass, he could see that the weather was pretty good that day—it was dazzling. "I'm hanging up."

Once he put his clothes on and got off the bed, he felt much more comfortable. Except for a little sleeplessness, the discomfort that overwhelmed his body the day before to the point that he wanted to beat the hell out of anyone he could get his hands on was completely gone.

Calculating the sleeping time, from yesterday's afternoon until now, it has been one whole day. He felt as though he was floating as he walked.

Li Bao Guo was not at home, and he didn't know where he had gone to either.

Jiang Cheng felt that this "home" was rather strange. When his mother wanted to withdraw from his adoption, Li Bao Guo had run over quite a few times, although he did not want to meet him.

But now that he was actually here, Li Bao Guo no longer pestered again and again that he wanted to come to get his son as he had previously said back then.

And as for the legendary older brother and sister, they were nowhere to be seen after two days.

Jiang Cheng was not only uninterested in the new "home", but there was nothing to look forward to. When he opened his eyes every day, he was alone in this completely lifeless room which did not make him feel too well.

If this house was not a two-story building, he thought that it was a century-old house. The placed outside, in all respects, was broken down and appeared as though it was impossible to live in.

This was also why he did not want Pan Zhi to stay here; compared to his former room where it was clean with a piano inside, to say the least, Pan Zhi would certainly bawl for two to three days straight.

In fact, even if he did not want him to stay at "home", the appearance of the East Station should be more than enough to make Pan Zhi bawl for a good while.

"Fuck," Pan Zhi muttered as he dragged a large suitcase and carried a big bag. The moment he saw him, he sighed regrettably, "This place is a bit unacceptable to me!"

"Just go back then," Jiang Cheng pointed at the ticket station. "Hurry up and go get a ticket."

"For our brotherhood!" Pan Zhi said. "I came from far away dragging a pile of things just to come and see you! Shouldn't you be moved?!"

"I am so moved," Jiang Cheng said.

Pan Zhi stared at him and then after a good while, he spread his arms open. "I really do miss you a bit."

Seeing that, Jiang Cheng walked over to hug him. "I didn't take that into consideration."

"Do you know why you only have me as a friend?" Pan Zhi asked as he released him.
