"I miss you"- Lan Zhan

Wei Ying looked at his phone, he was surprised to see a message from Lan Zhan. Especially this late at night, but he didn't pay much mind to it.

"I miss you too."- Wei Ying

He waited a while, but there was no reply.

"He must have fallen asleep," he mumbled looking at the time on his phone

(I don't even know what day it is anymore in this story)

Wei Ying looked at his phone, he didn't really know what to do at the moment.

"Wei-Xiong, want to help me practice my lines?"

"You finally starting to take things seriously Nie-Xiong."

"If I don't, my brothers gonna whack me."

"If you get whacked, it's for your own good."

Nie Huaisang handed Wei Ying his script.

"Have you gotten the whole thing memorized Nie-Xiong?"

"Of course."

"Hm, okay."

"So, what scene are you in? Also, whos lines should I recite?"

"I'm in the second scene, just recite all the lines that aren't highlighted."

Wei Ying turned the script to the second scene. There wasn't a lot of lines, but it seemed that Nie Huaisang has many.

"Are you ready?"

"Yes."

"Okay." Wei Ying let out a cough before starting

"What are you talking about Rachel? What did you do with the money that I lent you a couple of months ago?"

"I spent it all."

"It was $2,000, what the hell did you buy that was $2,000?"

"She didn't spend it, she gambled it away," said Nie Huaisang

"Shut up, Henry."

"Don't tell me to shut up Rachel," said Nie Huaisang

"I want my money back."

"Well, I don't have it."

"Find a way to give me back my money, or you will never see the light of day again."

"Are you threatening me, Mark."

"So what if I am."

"Mark, calm down; how about I pay you back the money."

"Always Nick to the rescue. I don't want your money, I want Rachel to give me back my money."

"How is she going to do that Mark, whenever she gets her hand on any money she goes straight to the casino," says Nie Huaisang

"Well, she better get it somehow."

"How about you go to the bank, and ask for a loan?" said Nie Huaisang

"How about she freaking gets a job? She's literally been living off of us?"

"Yeah."

"But she doesn't have any experience," says Nie Huaisang

"She can just get a waiter job or something. It's not like she doesn't have arms or legs."

"Why are you guys always so mean to me?"

"MEAN, what do you mean MEAN? We have been nice to you since the first day we met. But now, we all know that you are just a leech.

"Leech?"

"Okay, fine I will find a way to pay back your money. When I do, I will get out of all of your hair."

"And end scene," says Wei Ying

He was really surprised that Nie-Xiong actually memorized all the lines.

"Wei-Xiong, you are pretty good at acting; why don't you try acting?"

"Acting? If I do acting, maybe I can see Lan Zhan more often." thought Wei Ying

"I'll think about it in a couple of years, right now I just want to focus on singing."

"I see, so how do you think I did?"

"I don't know that much about acting, but I think you did pretty good."

"Phew, that's good; my brother says if I don't do this play well he's going to drag me home to get whacked."

"Well whack away."

"Wei-Xiong, don't be so mean."

"I'm joking Nie-Xiong."

Wei Ying patted Nie-Xiong's back.

"You got this."

"Thanks."

"Your welcome."

Wei Ying went back to his bed, he laid down and just looked at the ceiling.

"I'm bored."

He grabbed his headphones and plugged them in and soon sleep fell upon him.
