A month quickly passed by, making people question how time ticks fast once again.
The season also changed, as did the quarters that fucked every student in the exams.
The new line of months is just a continuation of repeating weekdays and drunk weekends, except that unexpected news came in from the Zhong family.
His father arrived home. Following it is a luxurious dinner that Chenle can't ever mess up.
Chenle eyed his clothes one last time, muttering curse words in different languages, and heavily sighed.
His formal white suit and dress pants adorned his milky white skin, his hair styled in a comma, and his pink lips covered with a glossy balm.
"Let's go!", the voice of his father echoed behind his bedroom door, causing him to huff and walk to it, the heel of his black dress shoes clicking on the tiled floor.
Soon, the two settled on the backseat of the black, shiny car, letting their personal driver take the wheel.
"You know what to do", Guoh said.
Chenle just kept his mouth shut. Like I have something to do.
"You can't mess this up like the last time, Chenle."
"I'll try, dad,", he answered, trying to sound as convincing as possible as he locked the anger inside him.
The ride lasted for almost an hour and a half, pulling up in a fancy restaurant.
They got out, Chenle straightening his black neck tie as they walked to the entrance.
Looking around, you can see the formality. Elite people dining in, all observing proper table manners, looked like shitty robotic gestures for someone like Chenle.
With Guoh leading the way, the two sat on the reserved four-seater table.
"Now we wait", Chenle sighed as he placed his left leg over the right.
"Men should always be the ones waiting for their girl, Chenle."
Yeah right
The boy just busied himself playing with the table napkin until he saw his father sitting straight, and formality was evident in his peripheral vision.
"Ah, it's nice seeing you again, Mister Wong."
"You can see my excitement, Mister Zhong."
The two close friends happily greeted each other, leaving Chenle with this girl, who's been familiar to him since he was young.
"Yier Chen? Oh my, look at you. At this point, you grew more handsome than your father", Zhuni said, all smiley.
