Chasing Summer

heard it.”

Lin Zhexia comforted herself and comforted them along the way, “I think he won’t really forbid us from eating…”

When the instructor heard their voices, he glanced at them and asked sternly, “Who was talking? Step forward.”

Nobody moved.

Lin Zhexia boldly took a step forward, “Me.”

Instructor, “What were you talking about? Let us hear it.”

Lin Zhexia, “I made some small objections.”

Instructor, “Let me hear it.”

She had already stepped out after all, Lin Zhexia might as well tighten her scalp and say, “The body is the capital of revolution, so eating is very important.”

However, she underestimated the degree of the instructor’s ruthlessness.
Her words didn’t work, and their class still missed their meal.

They stayed hungry until nighttime.
Not long after eating dinner, they felt hungry again.

This hunger not only came from skipping today’s lunch, but also as if it was a point of an outbreak.
After all, they haven’t eaten well for several days.
This kind of “hunger” was especially intense this evening.

That night, the content of their nighttime dorm chat became reporting the name of the food dishes.

“I want to eat hot pot, I want to eat barbecue…”

“Actually, in our situation right now, instant noodles are the most suitable.
There’s a place for hot water just outside the corridor, did anyone bring instant noodles?”

There was a moment of silence.

“Great, it’s better to go to sleep, there’s everything in dreamland.”

Although they said to sleep, no one could sleep.

The more they couldn’t sleep, the more hungry they became.

Near 10 o’clock, Lin Zhexia entered Chi Yao’s chat and tapped his profile picture under the blanket.

The chat interface immediately displayed a “tickle” prompt.

She thought that Chi Yao must have already gone to sleep at this hour.
Unexpectedly, a “?” came back from the opposite side, very quickly at that.

-You’re actually not sleeping, what are you doing if you’re not sleeping so late at night!

The opposite side replied instantly.

-Playing games.

Lin Zhexia: Oh, keep playing then.

Chi Dog: You’re not sleeping?

Lin Zhexia: I can’t sleep.
Lin Zhexia typed feebly: Too hungry to sleep.

After saying this, she couldn’t help but complain about the instructor: He’s just a sadist, he wouldn’t let us eat lunch.
I told him that the body is the capital of revolution, and after that, he got even angrier.

Chi Yao didn’t reply again.

Lin Zhexia thought that his game probably started, so she didn’t bother him anymore.

–

At the same time, in the boys’ dormitory building.

“F$%k, you used your ultimate too slow.”

“We traded flash, chase him.”

“Yao-ge, save me,” A boy shouted, “Why are you stuck in the jungle not moving? Disconnected?”

Chi Yao, “Replying to messages.”

“You can even cut out to reply to messages? Is that the confidence of the strong?” They were in the middle of a game, and it was the most crucial moment.
That boy continued, “At times like this, even if someone brought a blade to cut me up, I would still stay in place to finish the game before running.”

Another boy said, “That’s too much, people should be a little rational.
If it was me, I would run while I play.”

After these two finished speaking, the next second, they received a prompt that their friend had quit the game.

Some movements came from the upper bunk.

Chi Yao propped up the side of the bed with his backhand.
He didn’t step down the ladder beside the bed, his legs were long enough that he could get down from the top bunk directly, “I’m heading out.”

“You’re going out? At this hour?”

“Why? Besides, the door of the military training base is closed, I don’t think they’re letting us go out.”

Chi Yao pushed open the dorm door and left.
