Xie Chen was awakened by his phone ringing.
Half-squinting, he hung up without hesitation.
Then the doorbell rang again.
"Who the hell is it?!"
Xie Chen scratched his head irritably, sprang off the bed, swept through the living room like a whirlwind, opened the security door, and grabbed the noise-maker by the throat.
"Do you have a death wish?!"

Xie Chen rolled his eyes and withdrew his arm. "What do you want this early in the morning?"

Who knew when he had learned that one-handed eagle claw technique?

"Maybe it's too popular, so he wants to strike while the iron's hot!" Lu Fei said as he walked into the apartment, looking around. "Brother Chen, your living conditions are pretty nice."
"Not bad." Xie Chen suddenly frowned. "The next season is filming at an orphanage?!"
Lu Fei failed to catch the astonishment in his tone and continued admiring the studio apartment. "Yeah. They said it can help them rediscover childhood and compassion, transforming themselves from the inside out."
