The neighbors cursed and finally turned over to sleep; however, as plain as they were, they never anticipated that this was just the beginning.
When the moon soared high above, everyone in the apartment tossed and turned, avoiding the pillow corners dampened by drool, their dreams filled with frustratingly slippery tea eggs that just couldn't be grasped.

"They should be edible by now, right?"
"Exactly, the eggs were boiled before they went in, they must be ready to eat..."
Only the well-fed Zhu Xin still had some clarity: "But didn't you all say that we shouldn't eat or even drink water tonight, otherwise makeup won't look good tomorrow?"
After all, even the tastiest tea eggs are hard to swallow without a few sips of water! But wouldn't drinking water late at night cause facial swelling in the morning?
Everyone silently agreed.
