The next morning, the sky was still dark, and the whole city was still asleep, Chen Xianhui had already dressed in the dark, and then knocked on Shuqing's door in the dark, she only knocked twice, and when she saw that there was no response, she pushed the door open and walked in. At this time, Shuqing was sleeping soundly, she was tired, and she didn't have the energy of her youth at all.

Chen Xianhui stood beside Shuqing's bed, bent down to look at Shuqing, her face showed a complicated and tangled expression, she thought for a moment, then stretched out a hand and picked up a square pillow next to Shuqing, she couldn't see anything clearly in the darkness except for her glowing eyes.

"Now is not the time!" a voice sounded in her ears, and she remembered something like a person in a dream who had been frightened and suddenly woke up, and immediately put down the pillow in her hand. Then she shook Shuqing's arm dangling from the edge of the bed and called her name. Shuqing slept so deeply that Chen Xianhui shouted at least ten times to wake her up, and it was in front of her face, and her mouth was only 5 centimeters away from her. This scared Shuqing clearly, she hadn't encountered this situation yet, of course, except for being yelled at by her mother when she was a child who didn't want to go to school, but the feeling was completely different, when she opened her eyes and looked at Chen Xianhui's yellow face wrinkled like kraft paper, she didn't feel sleepy at all. She sat up in horror, like a spring doll.

"What's wrong?" she asked, looking at Chen Xianhui in horror.

"Do you have rice? I want to cook some porridge for breakfast, oh, your kitchen doesn't seem to have anything, so all I can think of is boiling some white rice porridge." But you don't have pickles, it's not good to have pickles, but it's only about the future, I wanted to buy it, but I don't know the way. Chen Xianhui said that in the early morning when everyone was still asleep, her voice could be heard throughout the building.

"Oh, thank you, Sister Chen, but I'm not hungry now, and you don't have to make breakfast so early, we can go downstairs and eat soy milk fritters." Shuqing said, she shrugged her shoulders helplessly, go and sleep again, didn't she sleep so late yesterday? Oh, these are completely the same two people as Chen Xianhui who I saw in Erlang.

"I'm sorry, I might have bothered you, but—but, I'm used to getting up early, I'm sorry. Chen Xianhui took a step back, and his voice lowered.

Shuqing raised her head to look at Chen Xianhui, she smiled and said, "No, Sister Chen, you didn't bother me, it's just - it's just - I'm old and don't have that much energy. I'm sorry!" she said as she began to get dressed.

"Then I'll wait for you to come out, and we'll eat together. Chen Xianhui walked out happily.

After breakfast, Shuqing took Chen Xianhui to Mrs. An's house, and Chen Xianhui watched Xu's mother stare at it for a long time. There seemed to be something to say, but she didn't say anything in the end. Mother Xu took them into the living room, served them delicious tea and left. After they remained silent for half an hour, there was a strange sound upstairs, as if someone was arguing.

"I knew it was going to happen, it's all your conspiracy, conspiracy!" a female voice yelled in a shrill voice.

"I'm doing all this for your own good!" was Mrs. An's voice, Shuqing pricked up her ears and listened carefully, Mrs. An's voice sounded tired.

"I'm not going to be your doll again, you're all fucking assholes. The female voice was still unrelenting, and then there was the sound of something falling, as if the bookshelf had suddenly collapsed, and then there was silence, and there was no sound.

Shuqing looked at Chen Xianhui, she blinked violently, but Chen Xianhui didn't understand what she meant. "What's wrong?" she asked.

"We may not have come at the right time. Shuqing said, and she looked upstairs.

"Why?" Chen Xianhui also followed her eyes and looked upstairs.

"I think—"

"Shuqing—" Mrs. An's voice interrupted Shuqing's words. She was standing at the end of the stairs. He looked at them with a smile.

Shuqing and Chen Xianhui both stood up, and they looked at Mrs. An, who was in high spirits, and glanced at each other strangely.
