On July 1, after receiving our summer vacation homework and report cards yesterday, our official vacation started today.
"Xiaozheng, why haven't you changed your clothes yet? Hurry up, Grandma has already started cooking."
Ma Zheng, wearing a tank top and underpants, sat cross-legged on the bed, holding his mom's phone and staring at it for almost half an hour.
He looked up at Shu Wan with a pitiful expression, "Brother said he would call me back in a while, but why hasn't he called? How long is his 'in a while' actually?"
At this, Shu Wan hesitated, unsure of how to explain to him that when adults say 'in a while,' it usually means they won't call back at all.
But obviously, this was not the case for Ma Zheng.
And as for Jiang Yan... she didn't know if he would call back either.
"Your brother must be held up with something; he's so busy. You shouldn't bother him anymore."
