'Ding dong . '
The doorbell rang again and Xuxu paused . She briefly glanced at the door and then continued to brush her teeth .
Seconds later, the doorbell rang once more but she still didn't open it .
Just like yesterday morning, she ate two eggs and drank a cup of milk . She threw up and her stomach felt better after she had emptied it .
She wiped the tables and cleaned the floor . Then she settled herself comfortably on the couch and watched a drama .
There were plenty of orange skins on the coffee table . Her mouth was already full, but she had started peeling another orange .

'Ding dong, ding dong!'
The doorbell sounded once more . She threw a casual glance at the door, and it fell silent for a few seconds . When it went quiet, she glanced back at the TV screen .
Her phone, which was on the coffee table, rang . Zhou Shuang was calling .
She placed the orange on the table and answered the call .
"Wen Xuxu! Did you fall asleep again? Why aren't you opening the door?!"
"Oh!" Xuxu was shocked . So, Zhou Shuang was outside the door right now?
"Coming," she hastily answered and stood up .

Zhou Shuang had put on thick makeup . Her outfit was striking and extravagant as usual .
She wore a black rich velvet coat and a pair of shiny leggings . Xuxu stared at Zhou Shuang's lips which seemed to be in a color that was neither red nor purple . It confused Xuxu, and so she burst out . "Are you frozen, or that's the color of your lipstick?"
Zhou Shuang rolled her eyes . "Obviously…"
She paused midway .
Xuxu raised an eyebrow . Zhou Shuang continued, "Of course I'm freezing . "
She shrunk her neck and shuddered before entering the house . She spoke as she shivered . "I'm frozen! I thought that it would be a warm day since the sun is out . I didn't think that it would be so cold outside . "
Xuxu shut the door after her . She then strolled after Zhou Shuang and noticed the bags that the latter was holding . There were fruits, cakes, and pastries .
She teased her and said, "Why did you bring so much stuff? Are you here to wish me a Happy New Year?"
Zhou Shuang casually said, "I didn't buy these . I saw them outside your house, so I brought them in for you . "
She raised her eyebrows doubtfully . "You didn't order these?"
Xuxu shook her head . "I didn't . "
But she was quite certain she knew the person who had ordered these .
"Oh . " Zhou Shuang frowned and shrugged . "I thought you ordered these and forgot to open the door for the delivery man, so he must have left it outside . "
She turned around was about to walk to the door . "It must be for your next-door neighbor . I'll put it back . "
Xuxu grabbed and stopped her . "Since you've already brought them in, you should eat it . If you bump into the person next door, you might be mistaken as a thief . "
The naïve and simple Zhou Shuang pondered and mulled over her words . "You're right, serves the person right for not collecting it in time . "
Xuxu slyly smiled .
Zhou Shuang put the bags on the coffee table and opened them . The fruits were all freshly imported from overseas .
She examined the label on a dragon fruit . When she saw the shipping details, she exclaimed, "Your neighbor is a fine connoisseur! Everything is imported, and they're all freshly plucked—barely two days ago!"
As she exclaimed, she began peeling the skin of the dragon fruit .
