Wang Xu's family restaurant had always been crowded in the early morning and to get a flatbread or two for breakfast was a great pleasure, if possible. When they arrived only to see that there was already no place to sit, they ended up sitting in the room where the family personally ate in.

"There are no donkey meat fillings this early. They're normally made in the noontime," Wang Xu said and brought over two baskets of stuffed flatbreads and a bowl of lamb soup. "Did you two leave together this morning?"

The second that Wang Xu asked that, Jiang Cheng immediately felt a bit guilty and took a big bite of stuff-flatbread, opting to remain silent.

"En," Gu Fei responded.

"You're just up so early today ah." Wang Xu pushed a small basket in front of Gu Miao, "Isn't it customary for you to be late... Miao Miao, there's no donkey meat today. You can try another flavor today."

"What Miao Miao," Gu Fei said. "Don't be corny, okay."

"Is it corny?" Wang Xu sat down and said while eating, "She's a young little girl who should have been cute and pretty, but look at what you've done, you brought her up like a wild little boy. I don't think I've ever seen her wear a dress."

"She wants to skateboard," Gu Fei said. "How would she wear that, and even if we wanted her to wear one, she doesn't want to."

"Ay," Wang Xu sighed, and after taking a few bites, he took out his mobile phone again and swiped a few times with his finger; the phone made a clicking sound.

Jiang Cheng glanced at him and found that the bastard's camera was facing him: "What are you doing?"

"Just taking a photo. Maybe, if we renovate the front of the restaurant later on, we can hang it there as an advertisement." Wang Xu smiled and put away his phone.

"Fuck off." Jiang Cheng looked at him, "Delete it."

"I've taken photos of so many people and nobody has ever told me to delete it," Wang Xu said with determination. "I won't delete it... I won't hang it up at worst then."

Jiang Cheng was not in the mood to pay him any more attention and continued to eat the stuffed flatbreads instead.

After they finished eating breakfast and walked out of the restaurant, Gu Miao had a foot on her skateboard and looked at Gu Fei. Gu Fei stooped to also look at her, "Do you remember where I said you can only skateboard at?"

Gu Miao nodded.

"Go on then. Gege has some things to do today, so I won't be home for dinner," Gu Fei said. "I'll probably be home around the same time as yesterday."

Gu Miao nodded again then turned to look at Jiang Cheng.

"Cheng-ge won't be coming over to our house today. Something came up yesterday so he had to come," Gu Fei said.

Gu Miao still had her eyes on Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng could only stoop to look at her as well, "I'll come to find you to play next time that I'm free?"

Gu Miao didn't react.

"You have to say the exact time," Gu Fei said from the side. "If you only say, 'next time', she won't understand it."

"Then..." Jiang Cheng hesitated and thought about it for a while. "Tomorrow then. Tomorrow after the basketball game. Let's have your brother bring you out to eat together with our team members, alright? We can sit in a row beside each other."
