「May 22nd, early morning.」
Zhou Li was woken up by an alarm clock, but not his own. The sound came from his bedroom. The alarm clock rang for a long time before it stopped.
Zhou Li propped himself up, looking bleary-eyed toward the bedroom. He saw Brother Nan wearing ultra-short shorts and a tank top. Brother Nan seemed even more dazed than he was. She was rubbing her eyes, which had faint dark circles under them; she clearly hadn't slept well. The stubborn tuft of hair on top of her head couldn't even stand up straight.
Zhou Li's eyes quickly cleared. Looking at Brother Nan standing at the door, he asked, "Why are you up so early?"
Brother Nan leaned against the door frame, looking as if she could barely stand. "Let's go… let's go buy groceries…" Her voice was also groggy and incredibly soft, with a trailing tone that, if one wasn't paying attention, sounded like she was trying to be cute.
"Hmm?"
"Mhmm…"
"Buy groceries for what?"
