'Ding dong.'
The doorbell rang again and Xuxu paused. She briefly glanced at the door and then continued to brush her teeth.
Seconds later, the doorbell rang once more but she still didn't open it.
Just like yesterday morning, she ate two eggs and drank a cup of milk. She threw up and her stomach felt better after she had emptied it.
She wiped the tables and cleaned the floor. Then she settled herself comfortably on the couch and watched a drama.
There were plenty of orange skins on the coffee table. Her mouth was already full, but she had started peeling another orange.
'Ding dong, ding dong!'
The doorbell sounded once more. She threw a casual glance at the door, and it fell silent for a few seconds. When it went quiet, she glanced back at the TV screen.
Her phone, which was on the coffee table, rang. Zhou Shuang was calling.
She placed the orange on the table and answered the call.
