Du Bin has been working very hard these days. He has been going to bed around 12 o'clock every night since the second day of the Lunar New Year, for the sake of his family status and for Du Chen's promise to him.
Du Bin's parents saw his efforts, and Du Chen's mother even gave him a snack every night, either noodles or eggs and milk. Fortunately, the family opened a shop and their income was much higher than before, otherwise they wouldn't be able to afford milk and eggs every night.

Miaomiao, a girl, doesn't go to bed until after eleven o'clock every day. What do you think is wrong with the boss's health?"
