Chen Nan pointed ahead, "Let's go!"
"Husband, you're the best!"
Li Xiao started the car with a giggle and headed in the direction of the arcade.
Chen Nan felt somewhat ashamed about Li Xiao's constant calling of him "husband," glanced at her, shook his head in resignation, and opened the car window to light a cigarette and began to smoke.
...
Early the next morning, Chen Nan was woken up by a phone call from Su Qingqing, asking where he had gone as she couldn't see him anywhere when she got up.
Chen Nan naturally wouldn't spill the beans about his time with Li Xiao, and had no choice but to lie, saying he went out for breakfast and would go straight to school afterwards, telling her not to wait for him at home.
Walking on the school's shaded avenue, Chen Nan was groggy and sleepy, dragging his weary soul step by step towards the senior year teaching building.
Since it was still early when he arrived at the classroom, there wasn't a soul in sight.
