Wei Ying woke up the next day, he looked at his phone. He still didn't get a reply back from Lan Zhan.

"That's odd, he should have seen my text," he mumbled looking at the time which says 8 am.

"Lan Zhan always wakes at 5 am, so he would have seen it."

Wei Ying was a little concerned, but he didn't have time to think about it. He had to get to breakfast and get to class. He took a quick shower, threw on some clothes, and left his room.

He rushed to the cafeteria, to grab a quick sandwich; and he rushed to class.

"You're actually early for once Mr. Wei," said Ms. Luo

"Don't say that Mianmian."

"How many times do I need to tell you to not call me that."

"What, why; all the other teachers call you that?"

"Wei Wuxian, this is my last warning. If you keep this up, I'm going to send you to the principal office."

"Okay, okay."

He goes to his seat and eats his breakfast. Soon all of his other classmates come in, he does his best to focus in class but he kept on thinking about Lan Zhan.

"Hope he's okay," he internally thought

"I'll give him a call during lunch," he mumbled

When class ended, he went to his next class. It was Jin Guangshan's class, he felt like he might get along with this man after finding out that Jin Zixuan was actually good with gay people; so he hoped that his father was the same.

The class, of course, was boring, so he ended up falling asleep.

"WEI WUXIAN, stop sleeping in my class."

"Huh, what; oh sorry."

Wei Ying got up and bowed his head.

"SIgh."

Wei Ying sat back down in his seat. For the rest of the class, he did his best to not fall asleep.

When the bell rang, he was so relieved.

"FINALLY."

He ran straight to the cafeteria, sitting in class made his stomach so hungry.

He got on the line to get some Chicken and Brocolli. After getting his food, he went to the condiment section to add some spicy to his Chicken and Brocolli. Almost the whole plate was covered with sriracha sauce.

"Omg, that is going to kill you."

Wei Ying turned around, and it was You Zhangjing. He would see him from time to time in his singing classes. Wei Ying really envies the others' ability to sing so well.

"I love eating spicy food, so if I die from eating spicy food I would be happy."

"Sigh."

"Zhangjing, come over here."

They both turned towards the voice, it was Lin Yanjun. He was quite popular among the females at this school.

"Coming, Yanjun. See you around crazy."

"HEY, rude."

"Haha."

Soon enough, Jiang Cheng comes around.

"That's going to kill you."

"What is with people saying that eating spicy food is going to kill me?"

"Who else said it?"

"You Zhangjing."

"Sigh, well he is right; it's not that healthy."

"He's the one who is unhealthy. He is the one who eats a lot, have you seen the amount of food he gets."

"He's still growing."

"Well, I'm still growing too."

"Ha."

"Hey, have you heard from Xichen?"

"Huh, why?"

"Nothing."

"Um, okay."

Wei Ying takes out his phone and starts to dial Lan Zhan's phone. After a couple of rings, no one picked up.

"Maybe he is working," he mumbled

"Who were you calling?"

"Lan Zhan."

"Why are you calling him?"

"I just feel uneasy,"

"Why?"

"I don't know, I just have this feeling that something is wrong."

"I see, I'll text Xichen if you want."

"Nah, it's fine."

"Okay."

All of a sudden, Wei Ying got a text from Lan Zhan.

"Hello."- Lan Zhan

"Hey, are you okay?"- Wei Ying

"Mmm."- Lan Zhan

"Oh, that's good,"- Wei Ying

"Are you busy right now?"- Wei Ying

"No,"- Lan Zhan

"Can I come to see you tonight?"

"Can't,"- Lan Zhan

"Why,"- Wei Ying

"I'm not in the city,"- Lan Zhan

"Oh,"- Wei Ying

"I'm filming,"- Lan Zhan

"Oh, okay; sorry to disturb you."- Wei Ying

"It's okay,"- Lan Zhan

"See you soon,"- Wei Ying

"Mmm,"- Lan Zhan

With that, they stopped talking. But Wei Ying still had this pit in his stomach. He just knew that something was wrong.

"So, what did he say?" Jiang Cheng

"He says he's filming,"- Wei Ying

"Well that's normal, he's an actor after all."

"I guess."
