Saturday, rest month, just after nap time.

The city is waking up from its lazy nap, and the streets are gradually becoming lively.

Jiang Cheng walked in the coffee shop and looked at the noisy crowd. His eyes moved unconsciously, past the tall buildings, and initially stayed on the blue sky. The bright moon should have been a sunny day, but a cloud blocked the sun. He worked overtime late last night and didn't take a nap because of something else. He felt a little chilly in his tiredness and wanted to sit by the window and bask in the sun. He didn't know whether he was deliberately teasing Jiang Cheng or not. As soon as he walked east, the sunlight was blocked by a large red cloud.

Jiang Cheng frowned and stared at the red cloud, as if he wanted to move the cloud away with his own thoughts. Of course that was something that was impossible, and because he was tired, he just stared at it for a while, and then he felt his head was swollen and his spirit became more and more trance-like.

In desperation, Jiang Cheng had to look away, squeezed his eyes hard, then let out a long sigh and stared blankly at the cup of coffee on the table.

After a while, he suddenly remembered something and looked outside the door. Then he took out the token and looked at the time.

It's half past two in the morning.

"Didn't you agree to two o'clock, but the boy is late again?" Jiang Cheng shook his head helplessly, and he was afraid that he had remembered it wrong, so he opened the sign to confirm the agreed time.

On the display screen, the contacts in the front two rows came into view. The contact in the first row was Chu Xueying, while the contact in the second row was No Liu Jingzhe. Jiang Cheng clicked Dongliu Jingzhe's name and saw the content of the initial call.

"This is a small town! Brother Dongwu is on a business trip. Why don't you give me something as a gift before leaving?"

"Bitch! Where can you go to have fun?"

"Let's meet and chat. He needs to prepare his luggage."

"OK, let's make an appointment."

"Two o'clock in the morning, coffee at the inn. His car is at three o'clock. I have to leave after meeting him."

"OK."

Jiang Cheng looked at the text message and smiled inadvertently. He heard someone coming in at the door and couldn't help but look up again. The two girls who came in were chatting and walking towards the counter. Jiang Cheng lowered his head in disappointment, but inadvertently clicked into the chat with Chu Xueying.

"Are you there?"

"Here, what's wrong? Xiaoxue."

"Where am I? He just had a nightmare."

"He was just talking to his friends."

"Can he come to me?"

"Well... wait until after three o'clock. He will be waiting for me at the coffee station."

"OK."

Jiang Cheng turned his head away and looked at the sky again, the smile on his face becoming a little inexplicable.

The clouds in the sky were floating so slowly that Jiang Cheng could see the glowing outline on the edge of the clouds. He felt a little cold again, and his spirit became more and more trance-like.

"Yo, there it is!"

A familiar voice rang in his ears. Jiang Cheng was startled and looked up. The person coming here is a young man with a rosy face and a handsome face, a pair of peach blossom eyes, and a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. He has a slender and well-proportioned figure and fashionable clothes. I wonder if he will attract countless girls when he walks on the street. kind of. At that moment, the two girls who had entered the door before kept looking over there, whispering something to each other, covering their mouths and snickering from time to time. Of course Jiang Cheng knew that those two people were not looking at him, but at his friend Liu Jingzhe who was standing in front of him.

"I know how to come!" Jiang Cheng teased and punched the wrong person.

Liu Jingzhe walked east with a smile, and then apologized and said: "I just went to buy gifts, so I spent a lot of time."

"A gift?" Jiang Cheng raised his eyebrows and said meaningfully, "I'm afraid I won't go on a business trip, but I'll have a private meeting with an old friend."

"Don't talk nonsense." Liu Jingzhe shook his head repeatedly and said seriously: "Is that really a business trip? Wasn't he following an author before? Wasn't he going to see him that time?"

Jiang Cheng suddenly realized: "Oh, what is the name of the author I have always admired?"

"Wildness!" Liu Jingzhe corrected unhappily.

"Yeah." Jiang Cheng nodded, wondering if he had forgotten the name after a while.

Liu Jingzhe talked about the wilderness, and Yi Dongzi opened the conversation, "Did I know that recently, the wilderness is writing a story about ruins, with twists and turns and horror in it? It's really exciting! But that guy was only halfway through writing, and suddenly Stopped updating! He contacted Yidong, who seemed to be ill recently, so the editor asked him to visit him."

Jiang Cheng was already sleepy, and after hearing what Liu Jingzhe said, he felt a little dizzy, so he just said perfunctorily: "Ah... I see."

Liu Jingzhe also noticed that Fang Fang was in a bad mental state and said with a bad smile: "Why are you so tired? Could it be..."

Jiang Cheng gave Wan Fang a red look and said, "What are you thinking about? He was kept by Lao Guan to work overtime after yesterday's shift."

"Okay." Liu Jingzhe looked disappointed.
