The three of them went home together. After Cheng Zhi and Xiao Feiran arrived, Zhou Lin still had to walk a bit more by herself to get home.
They told Cheng's parents about it, and everyone felt there was a conspiracy involved.
Cheng's mother waved her hand, "We're quite comfortable living in our three-story house. There's no need to go over there. What if they stop charging us for free after we've been living there? We wouldn't even know where to complain."
Cheng's father also felt it was better to wait and see.
After explaining the situation, Cheng Zhi and Xiao Feiran returned to their room and removed their face masks and other face coverings.
Cheng Zhi sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, "Our house is missing a basement. It would be perfect if we had a basement."
Xiao Feiran didn't seem to care about this and replied with a smile, "It's too late to start digging now. Besides, we don't know how to dig. If we were civil engineering majors, we might be able to do it ourselves."
"You only realize how little you know when you need it," Cheng Zhi sighed. "We should have chosen to pursue a double major in our freshman year. That way, the five of us could have ten different areas of expertise, and we would have been amazing!"
The imagination is wonderful, but Xiao Feiran shook his head repeatedly. "If that's the case, we're very likely to be gone before the apocalypse. Double degree! You haven't seen those double degree schedules. From 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., from Monday to Sunday, they're packed full. It's really hard to keep up."
Upon hearing about the full course schedule, Cheng Zhi's eyes widened. "I'm avoiding this. I'll never choose a double degree in my next life."
After the two talked for a while, Cheng's father came over and knocked on the door to say that dinner was ready.
Everyone sat down at the table, except for Cheng Ye.
Cheng Zhi looked at the empty seat, put down her chopsticks, and asked, "What's going on? Are you angry and not eating?"
Sitting across from her, Cheng's mother nodded. "He is angry, but he's definitely not angry at you. He's probably angry at himself."
Cheng Zhi couldn't understand why he was angry with himself. She put some food into his bowl, then put his portion back to keep it warm, planning to bring it to her after they finished eating.
Cheng Zhi quickly finished her meal and prepared to go inside to find Cheng Ye.
As soon as he came out of the kitchen, he was stopped by Cheng's mother.
"Why won't you let me go to him?" Cheng Zhi asked.
Cheng's mother looked up at Cheng Zhi and said, "Haven't you noticed that you're also a bit irritable? If you're like this, and your brother is like this too, the two of you will definitely explode when you meet. So just wait, either until you calm down completely, or until your brother figures things out on his own."
Cheng Zhi didn't deny what her mother said, but she still had a bowl of rice in her hand. "I still have to eat."
After thinking for a while, Cheng's mother waved her hand dismissively, "You won't die if you skip a meal."
"..."
These are things only a biological mother would say.
Cheng Zhi was thinking of putting the food back to keep it warm when Xiao Feiran stopped her, took the bowl from her, and said she would take it to Cheng Ye.
Cheng's mother nodded in agreement.
"How come she can go?" Cheng Zhi felt very resentful that her mother had agreed to let Xiao Feiran go.
Cheng's mother pointed at Cheng Zhi and then at Xiao Feiran, "It's obvious, Feiran is much calmer than you."
"?!!"
Cheng Zhi was really indignant. Her mind was filled with the image of Xiao Feiran drawing his sword at the slightest provocation. Was this what she considered calm?
She really wanted to tell Cheng's mother, but she couldn't, so she could only smile and nod, "Yes, yes, she's calmer than me, she's so calm."
After saying that, he quietly went to Cheng Ye's door to eavesdrop.
