The next morning, the three girls went out for their part-time job bright and early. They had been hired to cosplay for the grand opening of a large anime-themed restaurant. The restaurant was holding a three-day promotional event, and the pay was three hundred yuan a day. While it wasn't as much as the thousand a day they could earn at anime conventions, those weren't held very often. For a multi-day gig, this was a decent offer.
After they left, Sun Dasheng went back to sleep for a while. A phone call roused him at nine in the morning. Lying in bed, still groggy, he picked up the phone from his pillow.
"Who is it?"
"It's your mother!"
Hey, what's with the scolding?
But just as quickly, his mind cleared. The caller was indeed his dear old mother, and a smile immediately spread across his face.
"Mom, what's up? How come you have time to call me? Aren't you out strolling in the park with your old buddies or doing your square dancing?"
