Arriving at the apartment, Han Dong says: "We're here."
"Ai ya, this place isn't bad!" Li Shang tries to be reassuring, "The district looks good, the building is also new."
Han Dong chuckles, "I have a flaw, that is even though I don't have any money, I never treat myself unjustly."
Li Shang realizes when he walks up, the 100 square meters room is split into ten compartments, which doesn't include the shared toilet and kitchen. Han Dong lives in one of the compartments, to put it bluntly, it's a group rent apartment and compared to a basement room, it's slightly better.
"Come in," Han Dong opens the door for Li Shang.
Li Shang blushes with shame, the whole room can't simply be described with the word ‘chaos’, almost everything is piled up on the floor. Plastic bags, newspapers and magazines, bottles and cans, clothes, snacks……are there any places to place one's foot down?
"I left early in the morning, so I didn't have enough time to tidy up," Han Dong says, "Find a place to sit."
Li Shang looks all around, there isn't even one chair, where am I going to sit?
Han Dong picks up a piece of rubber from the tattered pile, blowing at it a couple of times, at once an inflatable seat appears.
Li Shang asks: "How do you sleep at night? On the floor?"
"Isn't there a bed here?"
Han Dong blows a couple of times and an inflatable mattress appears, and then a few more times, an inflatable pillow also appears.
Li Shang swallows his saliva: "Don't tell me your computer is also inflatable?"
Han Dong throws him a cold look: "Yes, I'm also inflatable."
Li Shang turns on the computer, because the speed is slow, he takes advantage of the time to look around for a while. There isn't one decent furniture, beside the inflatables there are also foldables, beside plastic there's also rubber. More than ten minutes have passed, looking at the computer screen again, it still hasn't booted yet……
Oh my god……Li Shang sighs incessantly, living a life like this is called convenient? Then if one is being a little hard on oneself, then it means living under the latrine pit?
"This house, beside the bad soundproof, everything else is good." Han Dong feels quite contented.
Li Shang asks: "How bad is the soundproof?"
Just when he finished his question, a faint sound is issued across the three walls, "All 10 of our rooms share one alarm clock."
Li Shang: "……"
Han Dong drags the mouse, "I'll show you the film I'm in, look at this, my scene appears a little over 11 minutes." He then drags the mouse over to 10 minutes, Li Shang is particularly looking forward to it, as a result when they reach the 12 minutes mark, Han Dong asks him: "Did you see it?"
"Huh?" Li Shang blinks, "Did it just appear? I didn't pay attention!"
"The movements on the screen are very clear and you still didn't see it? I'll drag it back, drag it back, focus your attention on it."
This time Li Shang doesn't even dare to blink, as a result he still didn't catch it.
"How about this, when your scene appears you help me pause it." Li Shang says.
A little bit over 11 minutes, Han Dong fiercely clicks the mouse, it was a little too early.
As the film continues playing, he clicks pause again, "F***, passed it."
Going back to the beginning, "Too early again,"
"F****, passed it again."
"……"
Han Dong rolls up his sleeves ready for battle, "I don't believe I'm unable to catch you."
This time it is quick and accurate……the computer crashes.
"Don't worry, we'll restart." Han Dong says.
Li Shang has the kind of feeling of a ball breaking (or pain in the a**) and of sadness at the same time, he finally understands what Han Dong means by "If you can't see, then we'll go back." Struggling to capture the scene, only two scenes are enough to make them toss and turn the whole night.
