The first day of the Lunar New Year.
Although it was Chunming, the early morning was still a bit cold. A fluffy quilt of moderate thickness was standard all year round. Baozi's bedsheets and duvet cover weren't as flashy as those of typical girls, nor were they in girly shades of pink; she preferred plain and cool tones.
She was wrapped up tightly, sleeping peacefully.
Her cell phone was plugged in at the bedside, fully charged.
Faint voices from the living room could be heard, but they didn't enter her dreams or disturb her sleep.
Suddenly, there was a CLICK.
Her bedroom door opened. Her mother stood at the doorway with a joyous smile, accompanied by two aunts. The aunts peeked into her room, guided by her mother's explanations, their faces also donning enigmatic smiles.
Baozi groggily opened her eyes, glanced out, then quickly closed them again, numbly continuing to sleep.
"This girl is so lazy…"
"Always sleeps till noon…"
"Tsk tsk! How can this be acceptable…"
