10 a.m.
The sky was drizzling softly.
Lin Xu drove to the entrance of a Hutong near the North Third Ring.
After parking the car, he held an umbrella in one hand and carried two types of snacks he had made last night. He approached a courtyard residence at the entrance of the Hutong and rang the doorbell.
Soon, the sound of brisk footsteps came from inside.
Then, the door opened.
Little Mushroom Head, Geng Lele, poked her head out, "Haha, welcome Xu Ge to our home! After Yue Jie told me last night, I was so excited I wrote myself a leave pass for school overnight."
Lin Xu: "..."
You're not even going to bother pretending, are you?
He closed the umbrella, flicked it a couple of times, and asked, "Won't your school penalize you for taking leave like this?"
