Afternoon.
Jiang Yuan strolled leisurely down the stairs, feeling completely relaxed. Suddenly, he was struck by the joyful sensation of getting out of school early during his schooldays.
Looking back now, the joy of skipping school was the truest joy of all.
Once you're an adult and spend thousands to buy moments of leisure, they're worth jack compared to those days.
Jiang Yuan swung his arms as he walked, even considering twisting his body this way and that.
"Heading out?" Huang Qiangmin's voice came from behind.
Jiang Yuan jumped, for a moment almost thinking he'd been transported back to the age when he was under the tight grip of his homeroom teacher.
"Um... just stepping out for a bit," Jiang Yuan said.
"Need a car?" Huang Qiangmin offered a 55.5-degree smile – the epitome of amiable.
If there were a world ruled by crocodiles, a crocodile carrying a chicken to his mother-in-law and wearing such a smile would meet the average social expectations perfectly.
