Gu Ran opened his eyes and grabbed his phone.
5:29 AM.
He turned off his 5:30 AM alarm, opened WeChat, and tapped into the pinned chat.
[Gu Ran: Surf tomorrow morning, just us two?]
[Su Qing: Sure]
[Gu Ran: 5:40?]
[Su Qing: ...If it's at that time, I need to think about it]
[Su Qing: Thought about it]
[Gu Ran: (expectantly)]
[Su Qing: You go alone]
[Gu Ran: How about 6:00? Any later and everyone else will be awake!]
[Su Qing: Make it 5:40, you go, and if I come, I'll find you at the beach; if I'm not there by 6:00, don't wait.]
[Gu Ran: You have to come though]
[Su Qing: Good night#smile]
[Gu Ran: Good night～]
She'll come, right?
Gu Ran got out of bed with that hope.
He used the restroom, meticulously brushed his teeth in the bathroom, and changed into his swim trunks.
Passing through the living room on his way out, he went into the kitchen, grabbed a small handful of cherries, maybe four or five, and a slice of bread.
Eating as he walked, he left the villa.
