"Lalalala … Lalalala …"
In the Zhang family's villa, Ya Han seemed to be in a good mood. She had just finished showering, and her hair was half-dried and casually draped over her shoulders. She hummed a song as she packed the things she was going to bring to school into a small suitcase.
It was three o 'clock in the afternoon, which was the time when most people just woke up from their afternoon nap. Since the sun was still hanging in the sky, everyone in the villa seemed to be in a lazy mood at this time. Someone as energetic as her could be considered an exception.
Evening gowns, casual wear, high heels, handbags, makeup boxes, jewelry … She compared the items on her body as she packed them into her suitcase.
In fact, she had all the clothes she needed for school in her villa. The things she was going to bring this time were mainly things she needed to rush to the "Star Dream" cruise ship.
As she packed, she was slightly expectant, but then she was puzzled. Why should she be expectant?
When she put a pearl necklace on her neck to compare, she was stunned when she saw the silly girl with her hair down and a smile on her face in the mirror. Then, the bedroom door was pushed open.
"Little mom!"
"Ya Han, you're always so energetic …"
"Young people have to be energetic at all times. Little mom, you're a young person too. Go out and exercise more. Don't stay at home all day."
The woman yawned and then smiled. "Ha … I don't have anywhere I want to go. I just want to sleep these days …"
Ya Han leaned over and gossiped. "Could it be that … you're pregnant?"
"Of course not …" The woman smiled and waved her hand. "Actually, I'm here to ask you on behalf of your dad. We're going to the cruise ship on the second. Are you coming home with us or going alone?"
"I have some things to deal with at school on the first. I'll go on the second. Anyway, I have a car. If I want to come back, I don't have to pack so many things now."
"I heard that you asked for a few extra tickets this time. Is there someone going with you?"
"Yes." Ya Han nodded. "A few students."
"Are you serious?
Come, come, come. Don't hide anything in front of Little Mother. What about the other party's family background and character? Little Mother can help you set up an ambush in front of your father … "
"What are you talking about?" Ya Han laughed. "They're really students!"
"Liar."
"Really!"
"… A teacher-student relationship?"
"Tsk …"
Ya Han scoffed. She smiled and refused to answer. She stared at her for a while before saying, "You must be lying. Everyone in the family can tell that you've been different these few days. That's what you're like when you're in love!
I was young once too, and I even had a passionate love affair. You've been especially energetic these two days … "
"Okay, okay, little mom, don't repeat that relationship. Aren't you afraid that my dad will be jealous if he hears it?
If you don't believe me, then so be it. When have I lost my vitality? "
"You've been different from usual these few days. You don't like to dress up, but you specially went out to buy new jewelry and a new evening gown. You greeted everyone at home when you saw them …"
"What's wrong with buying new ones?
I just saw it when I was shopping yesterday. Anyway, I'll be going to the ship in a few days and bought it along the way. Is it wrong for me to greet my family? "Ya Han laughed.
"Ever since the incident with Liu Wenli, you've been in a cold war with your family for a long time. Yesterday morning, you suddenly took the initiative to greet your dad. Didn't you see that your dad spat out a mouthful of soy milk?
Well, speaking of Liu Wenli, could it be the person who knocked me out that night? Let me tell you, if he marries you, I'll have to hit him back. Anyway, he's my son-in-law in terms of seniority. He won't be at a disadvantage this time … "
"What are you talking about …" Ya Han laughed in her heart. She fantasized about marrying Jiaming. She was seven or eight years older than him. In that case, wouldn't she really become the child bride that he often joked about?
Everyone will know when we get on the ship. However, if the other party's family background is really not good enough for our Zhang family, you should tell Little Mom first. Little Mom will help you in advance. Little Mom will slowly settle it in the future. Your dad looks strict on the surface, but in reality, he cares about you a lot. Recently, he donated money to a few world-famous hospitals. I heard that there's a lot of progress in America. Maybe by the end of this year … "
Just as she was talking, her phone suddenly rang. Ya Han glared at her Little Mom, who was talking non-stop, and signaled for her to stop. Then, she took out her phone from her handbag — of course, it was still a brick-shaped phone — and said in a very dignified voice, "Hello, I'm Ya Han."
The next moment, her dignified expression melted and was replaced by a bright smile. "Well, Jiaming. Oh right, are Lingjing and Shasha ready?
I was shopping yesterday and happened to find two necklaces that suit them. Don't worry, they're not expensive … Oh, are you not going? Oh … Well, it's fine … You can sell the tickets. Otherwise, I'll have to find a way to give them to someone else … Then, you can give them to me at school … Well, bye … "
From the dignified expression at first to the smiling face, then to the slight disappointment and sadness that appeared on Ya Han's face for a moment naturally did not escape the attention of the woman beside her. Seeing that she gently put down her phone, the woman beside her asked softly, "What's wrong?
Did he have an emergency? "
"What emergency, just to accompany his two girlfriends …"
"What, he has two girlfriends!?"
"I'm just kidding." Ya Han burst out laughing. "He's really a student." "Of course not.
From just now until now, the difference in your expression clearly shows that you're in love. Look, look, look, before you picked up the phone, your face was as red as an apple that anyone would want to take a bite out of. Now … Look, the color has faded. Don't tell me it's because you put on anti-cold wax … "She reached out her hands and pinched Ya Han's face in front of the mirror. After a moment, Ya Han said helplessly," The reason why the color has faded is because you've made my face longer, please … "
Letting go of her cheek, the place where she had been pinched just now had a few traces of satisfactory bright red. Yahan smiled and rolled her eyes. The stepmother helplessly sighed: "Forget it, since you insist on not saying, I won't ask. But, are you still going to the cruise?"
"Of course, okay, okay, I'm going to ignore you. I still have to pack my things …"
"Okay, then I'll go out first. I know that you're out of love and I shouldn't disturb you, but if …"
"Auntie —"
"Yes, yes, I'll go out, I'll go out …"
The woman walked out and closed the door behind her.
When she was almost done packing, she casually sat down in the box and looked at the fool in the mirror. The blush on her face had indeed faded, and she suddenly felt less happy.
Was she in love?
How could that be? He was just a sixteen-year-old kid … Okay, even if she always treated him as an adult, he was still just a kid. A kid, a kid, a kid …
When it was past four o 'clock, Ya Han, who had returned to her old virgin appearance, dragged the small box out of the door. Her heart was filled with gloomy and strange thoughts. Her car ran a red light, and when the traffic police caught up with her, she suddenly realized something.
While the traffic policeman was issuing a ticket by the car window and rambling on about the traffic laws, Ya Han held the steering wheel and was slightly absent-minded. She looked like a little swan that was hesitant because it couldn't find a place to spend the winter …
Some things, once the seed was planted in the heart, would gradually take root and sprout. Love was the same, and so was language — she was a little confused now.

Late at night, the gentle sound of a piano flowed out of "Nordic Fantasy". A bicycle was parked at the entrance of the alley that led to the restaurant's back door. Jiaming was bored to death as he sat on the iron railing by the roadside. He seemed to have come a little early, and Lingjing had gotten off work a little late today.
Under the yellow streetlights, there weren't many people on the street. After a while, three young men with dyed hair walked over from not far away. They looked like the three different colors of the traffic light. When they got close, they looked at the teenager sitting on the railing and exchanged glances. Then, one with red and one with green hair sat beside Jiaming.
"Hey, bro, do you have money on you?"
"Nice bicycle …"
Meanwhile, in Nordic Fantasy, Lingjing, who was about to get off work, bumped into Zhang Jingfeng, "Manager Zhang."
"Oh, Lingjing, you're taking three days off for National Day. Do you have something to do?"
"Yes, I did have something to do, but not now. But since I've already taken leave, I've decided to take a break.
What's wrong?
Are you not free for three days?
I can come over anytime, it's okay. "
"Haha, no, no, I just think it's a coincidence.
You're taking three days off and have nothing to do. By the way, you saw the introduction of Star Dream Cruise on TV, right? "
"Uh …" Lingjing was startled, then nodded hesitantly, "Oh, I know."
"Oh, that's good.
It just so happens that my father has a business relationship with the organizer of this sea trip, so he got a few tickets. After giving them away, there's still one left. You've done a great job these days, so I think it's the best choice to give it to you. Come, take it, it's nothing … "
Looking at the piece of paper in Zhang Jingfeng's hand, the corner of Ling Jing's mouth slightly pulled into a helpless smile. There were five tickets of a higher standard than this in her small handbag, but they weren't going to go …

Yes, I'm in the hit list, but I'm still in the fifteenth place on the recommendation list … While I'm inspired, I clenched my teeth and typed an extra chapter.
