"...most Substance-addicted people are also addicted to thinking, meaning they have a compulsive and unhealthy relationship with their own thinking."

Cheng Liu tried to compose herself as she made her way down the stairs. She heard the girls' voices coming from the kitchen. They must have all left the bedroom due to Liu's theatrics.
"So how is he?" Chengjing leaned on the counter with her elbows when she spotted Liu walking down the stairs. The other girls gathered around as well.
"Excuse me?" Liu turned around to face them. She gingerly walked over and grabbed a bottle of water out of the refrigerator, trying to feign like she wasn't shaken by Wangji's anger towards her. She had never seen him actually doing drugs. Liu had convinced herself that Wangji only used the pills to get to sleep. Now, she was facing the fact that Wangji was actually abusing drugs.
Inside her, she was scared to tangle her life with a junkie. Yet there was a fury of not being able to make Wangji want her in a sexual way. Overall, she was in a bad mood, and she didn't know herself what exactly she wanted now.
"Good job. You always make yourself at home." Wen Qing shook her head at the frizzy haired blonde.
"At Wangji's home, I do." Liu tried to push past the pack of girls.
"You never answered. How is the psycho in the sack?" Chengjing blocked her way. The other girls followed her lead.
"Let her by. She doesn't have to answer that." Wei Ying came to the door of the kitchen and took up for Liu after witnessing the girls' interaction. His ears couldn't take the topic of Wangji's sex life anymore.
Liu pushed past them. She then turned with a smirk. "He's terrific. It's not like any of you have a chance of finding out."
With that, Cheng Liu beamed, but as she turned, she noticed Wei Ying's face. He looked saddened. However, the sadness wasn't what made her stare at Wei Ying with a guilty expression. Liu feared Wangji's warning. For once, Liu was really frightened of what Wangji would do to her if he found out Liu was pretending that sex was actually happening between them.
"We're going to rent some movies. Are you coming?" Lary turned to ask Wei Ying. She didn't want Wei Ying to have to endure anymore hurt from Liu and Wangji.
"No. I'm going to head to bed early." Wei Ying answered as he sat on the kitchen stool. "I think I'll just get some cereal before bed."
"Well, I don't wanna sleep now. It's too early for us to go to bed. Besides, I did like some fancy dinner. Come on, ladies. I'll buy at Dunkin' Doughnuts or some other snack to munch on. That one doughnut shop is open all night." Wen Qing waved goodbye as she left with the rest of them.
Wei Ying's face was unshakeable. He poured himself a bowl of cereal. He hated the jealousy that was gnawing at him, but he also knew he couldn't deny it anymore.
The group of girls had teased and joked that Wangji and Liu had more than a friendship now. They were in a sexual relationship as the girls reminded Wei Ying again and again with their laughter and whispers. It was obvious to them all, but Wei Ying until he heard the sounds coming from Wangji's room.
