Ma Lu had spent the entire night playing games at Zhen Ye's place, but since he had just gone out to gather ingredients the night before, he could hardly keep his eyes open by the late hours, yawning constantly.
His gameplay was all over the place, and several times he almost ran straight into Wild Monsters and got killed, eventually leaning to the side and falling asleep right on the living room floor.
When he woke up early the next morning, Ma Lu found an extra blanket on him, though it felt a bit heavy.
Upon lifting it, he discovered Zhen Ye curled up underneath, lying beside him with one arm draped over his chest.
No wonder Ma Lu had had a strange nightmare that night, where he became a pink whale tightly entwined by an octopus, unable to move.
Ma Lu glanced at his phone afterward and realized it was 10:58 AM, just 2 minutes before the restaurant was set to open.
Luckily, he was sleeping over at Zhen Ye's place, with the Universe Infinite Canteen right downstairs.
