167 - The Parents Aren't Here

Zhou Lei had no idea where his parents were, but he was sure that they'd be fine. After all, nothing has ever happened to them for the past 17 years since he was born.

Anyway, enough raising flags...

Zhou Lei headed to his room and removed his clothes. He lied on his bed and it made a little squeak. '...Damn squeaky bed!'

Strangely, even though he had practiced for about 3 hours today, he didn't feel any fatigue whatsoever.

Zhou Lei didn't think anything about this matter. It could be any reason, but he wouldn't care. He was just grateful that his body didn't ache as much as before.

With him spending all his energy on practicing, Zhou Lei expected that his stomach would rumble any second now.

Grrrgg...

"Ah, there it is..." He stood up and headed to the kitchen, sitting on the chair beside the dinner table. Zhou Zhenya was there, cooking. As her hands moved swiftly, Zhou Lei yawned as he lied his head on the wooden table.

Soon enough, Zhou Zhenya finished cooking the meal and brought it onto the table. As she spotted her brother, her mouth opened. "Oh, you're here..."

Zhou Lei looked at the meal in his sister's hands. It was eggs again...

Moreover, it was only one serving. "Zhenya, where is my portion?"

"Eh, I didn't know you were here." Zhou Zhenya indifferently responded as she took a seat beside him.

"Ugh..." Zhou Lei knew what this indicated. He stood up and cooked his own egg. After that, he sat back down and started eating.

With only him and his sister there, the image gave off a feeling of loneliness...
