The following day, early morning.
A series of urgent phone rings woke Zhou Ning up.
Rubbing his eyes, he grabbed his cellphone for a quick look and saw an incoming call from a number marked with Yun Province, which puzzled Zhou Ning for a moment. Nonetheless, he answered the call.
"Hello."
"Hello, is this Zhou Ning?"
Zhou Ning sat up straight and blurted out the name. The caller clearly knew him, but he didn't have any acquaintances in Yun Province. Could it be a classmate?
"This is he. Who is this?"
"Stop guessing, you don't know me. Zhou Xiaojun is your brother, right? I'm his classmate from Peng Cheng. We were out having fun when he just got stabbed by some guys. He's in the hospital now, preparing for surgery.
We really can't come up with the money. I wanted to use his phone to call his parents, but Zhou Xiaojun refused, saying he was afraid of being scolded. His sister-in-law is pregnant, which makes it even more inconvenient. He told me to find you instead."
