Xiao Chong returned to his home in Wenting District, took a shower and blew dry his hair. Just as he was taking ice cubes from the fridge and pouring a drink for a little nightcap, the doorbell suddenly rang.
He raised his wrist and checked the time on his watch; it was already a quarter past midnight.
Xiao Chong walked to the door with his glass of ice-cold drink. The electronic peephole sensed someone approaching and lit up promptly. His neighbor, Zhang Lingyan, holding a takeout bag and wearing only a thin shirt, appeared on the screen.
This woman must have lost her mind, knocking on a man's door in the middle of the night!
Xiao Chong let out a cold laugh and turned his head, pretending not to know.
Unexpectedly, when there was no response, the visitor began to knock on the door with a "thud-thud-thud," shouting intermittently, as if she wouldn't stop until the door was opened, completely unconcerned about disturbing the neighbors above and below.
