The middle of March arrived...
It was a rare weekend, and everyone was free.
So Chu Yu, the gaming shut-in, was dragged out for a stroll by his two friends, Su Ruo and Zhao Qinyin.
The weather had taken a sharp turn lately. Temperatures had only just started climbing last week, but they'd dropped again this week. It was already the middle of March, yet it was snowing again in Tokyo.
Chu Yu had a thousand reasons not to go out. Wouldn't it be better to stay home, waste electricity, crank the air conditioning up to thirty degrees, and eat ice cream in a T-shirt with the fan on? Why go out and freeze like an idiot?
But... those two had inexplicably gone all out, dressing up before insisting on dragging Chu Yu outside.
They even said he'd been in Japan Island for so long without taking them out to have fun. They kept needling him, making Chu Yu wonder if he really had been too much of a lazybones...
Of course, at a time like this, Chu Yu wouldn't forget his good friend, Huang Ming!
If they were going out for a fancy meal, Chu Yu would never have thought of him. But when it came to going out to freeze in the cold, going alone was too miserable. It just wouldn't be fair...
So, under the pretense of discussing the company's future plans and getting some fresh air, he tricked Huang Ming into coming along!
Honestly, since coming to Japan Island, Huang Ming had been like a fish in water. He often went out with friends he'd made there. Though this perennial bachelor still had both his parents, and even all four of his grandparents, his family had been urging him to get married for over a decade.
