Zhen Yu asked Zhang San and Li Si to pay attention only to the news related to internet service, so she imdiately beca serious, "What news?!" "The telecommunications office is saying that narrowband internet service might launch during the National Day this year, and you would need to buy so kind of modem to get online..."
"I got it! Keep an ear out, and let know imdiately if there’s any news!"
"Don’t worry! I got a friend keeping an eye on it."
"That’s good," Zhen Yu was just about to emphasize again the importance of this news, when suddenly a gar called out loudly, "Boss!"
"Hey!" Li Si’er instinctively responded, but she didn’t move from her spot.
"Go check it out! We’ll talk when there’s news about the internet." Zhen Yu gestured towards the direction of the voice, bringing an end to the conversation.
"Hey! Okay!" Li Si’er agreed and walked toward the gar.

Zhen Yu lay bored and listless behind the counter in the corner, until a burst of commotion suddenly ca from outside the glass door.
She sat up quickly, her expression rapidly shifting from relaxed to reserved.
"Zhen Yu!" Han Jiayang, like a human cannonball, ’whooshed’ up to the counter, "Zhen Yu co out, give us a tour of your ho!"
"Sure!" The guest leads, and the host follows, especially since the Han Family had co to Qi City to buy property!
Zhen Cheng Ga Hall, being a ready ’showroom’, naturally had to be toured first!
Mrs. Zhen had already seated Mr. Han and Mrs. Han at the dining table, and after pouring a glass of water for each of them, she started pointing around the first floor, explaining various things.
As soon as Zhen Yu stepped out from behind the counter, Han Jiayang dragged her to the staircase leading to the second floor.
Han Mingyue was waiting there, his facial injury still seemingly unhealed...
She had misunderstood him before and couldn’t apologize! Now seeing him, Zhen Yu naturally felt a bit awkward.
She was just about to greet him naturally as usual, when Han Jiayang let go of her and Han Mingyue grabbed her hand to start climbing the stairs!
Zhen Yu’s intended greeting "You’re here." got stuck in her throat, unable to escape; not going up, and not coming down.
After struggling to catch her breath, she started to rant inwardly: "Ah...sheesh...is this a relay race or sothing? Even passing the baton!"
One after another, the three of them dashed up the stairs ’thump thump thump’.
Reaching the second floor, Han Mingyue beelined for the room that was visible from the entrance, where the desk and chairs were, and imdiately closed the door behind him.
Han Jiayang stood at the top of the stairs scratching his head, glancing at the closed bedroom door before reluctantly turning around and squatting down, standing guard for his big brother!
---
Zhen Yu had forgotten all about ranting, now she just wanted to know why on earth Han Mingyue was closing the door! In broad daylight!! Why are you closing the door?!!
Han Mingyue, holding Zhen Yu’s wrist, hadn’t let go; he turned around, took deep breaths, and mustered up the courage to say, "Zhen Yu! I like you!"
"..." Zhen Yu was a bit stunned at first, as this confession had co so unexpectedly that for a mont she couldn’t quite believe it.
Seeing Zhen Yu with wide eyes, saying nothing, Han Mingyue bit his lower lip and decided to go for broke!
He suddenly lifted his hands to cup Zhen Yu’s face, making her look into his eyes, "Look at ! Xiaoyu, I like you! What about you?"
The palms of the young man were moist and slightly cool. Zhen Yu didn’t know if she was feeling the cold or a shock but she shivered slightly.
She blinked her eyes and then, with a radiant smile, said, "What a coincidence! So do I!"
Han Mingyue suddenly held his breath, and then his entire face flushed red ’whoosh,’ even including his two ears.
Zhen Yu was afraid the silly kid would hold his breath again until passing out, hastily pulled his hands away from his face and shook them, then softly called out to him, "Han Mingyue! Breathe!"
"Ha..." Coming back to his senses from the surprise, Han Mingyue cast his eyes down, randomly looking everywhere but daring not to et Zhen Yu’s eyes, not knowing what else to say.
His shy appearance amused Zhen Yu, wanting to have a few more glances. But they couldn’t just keep standing there dumbly, in case the parents from both sides ca upstairs...
In a flash of thought, Zhen Yu made a decision, "Co on! I’ll take you out to have fun!"
"Where to?" The simple and naive Han Mingyue asked foolishly, with no suspicion that he might be led astray by Zhen Yu.
It wasn’t far, just a few steps away, but Zhen Yu didn’t feel like explaining. "You’ll see when we get there!"
"Alright."
However, when Zhen Yu opened the bedroom door, he discovered Han Erha squatting at the top of his own staircase...
What else could he do? He just had to bring him along!
They went downstairs, greeted the adults, and said they wanted to go out to play. To their surprise, they were told that in one hour, everyone would gather next to the ga hall for wonton soup. The three kids hurriedly agreed before dashing off.

"This is? A ga hall!" Han Jiayang shouted out several nas of arcade machines as soon as he entered, bubbling with excitent!
There was a ga hall in Laha Town too, but only in the town center! There was only a Subor ga console and a pool hall in Siping.
Han Jiayang did go to the streets to play with the boys from his class on weekends, but not only was the ga hall an inconvenient distance away, it was also too crowded to even get a chance to play, so he stopped going.
"Ah!!! Qi City is amazing! I can’t wait to start High School!"
Zhen Yu was in a good mood and was more than happy to add to Han Jiayang’s joy, "Tonight, let Zhen Yan take you to the Martial Arts Hall for a visit."
"Sister Xiaoyu! You’re the best!!!" Han Jiayang jumped three feet high with excitent, lunging at Zhen Yu with the intention of giving her a hug and spinning her around twice!
But before he got halfway, he was yanked back by his T-shirt collar by his brother. Han Mingyue’s tone was sour and angry, "What are you doing!"
"Ah? Oh..." Glancing back at his brother’s expression, Han Jiayang had a mont of realization.
Turning his head to look at Zhen Yu again, he teased with a lifted eyebrow, "...Sister-in-law?"
Zhen Yu felt as though all the blood in her body had rushed to her head, her face nearly burning up! She was so embarrassed she couldn’t say a word.
Seeing Zhen Yu’s face turn the color of a fiery cloud with his brother’s teasing, there was a sweet feeling in Han Mingyue’s heart! He pursed his lips, pulled her behind him, and then gently reprimanded his brother with a hidden smile, "Don’t talk nonsense."
"Alright, alright! I got it, you two are in cahoots." Han Jiayang chuckled inwardly. It seed like not only had his brother and Zhen Yu made up, but their relationship also appeared to be different from before.
"Bro! I’ll go buy coins, how many do you want?"
"Ten!" Zhen Yu’s voice ca from behind Han Mingyue, "You too, ten! No buying more!"
"Bro..."
"Hurry up and be quick about it!"
"..." Han Jiayang rolled his eyes and left.
He indeed could buy more, but his brother could also refuse to let him play! If they were late for lunch...
"Sigh!"
