Ming and Xingcheng enter, and Ming asks to be let in before he catches a cold. He tells Ming to undress his lips so that he doesn't look like he's about to vomit. He's worried about the pictures, though, because they're still in the process of being made. Ming asks if he can go back to his old job at the Beijing factory, where he lives on days when he isn't working. Ming says he'll send him the address, and then he can head back to the factory.
