Early morning, six o'clock, the sun rose from the east.
Xue Yuantong woke up from a deep sleep; she had slept for several hours in the afternoon yesterday, resulting in a short sleep last night.
Previously, upon waking, she would often dash to Jiang Ning's house; now with Chuchu moving in, Xue Yuantong shifted her base.
In the last two days, the weather had been unusually hot, with temperatures exceeding 38 degrees.
The tutoring during the summer vacation was not at fixed times; Second Middle School, where Chuchu was enrolled, had given the students two days off.
As Xue Yuantong entered, Chuchu was stirring a cup with a spoon.
The rich liquid inside the cup prompted Xue Yuantong to quietly ask, "Chuchu, what are you drinking? I can smell it."
Chuchu kept stirring, "It's 'banlangen'."
Last night was too hot, and she slept with the air conditioner on, initially set for just one hour to save electricity.
