"?," Han Mingyue’s mind was all muddled, he blinked in confusion, "What’s up?"
"What’s going on with Zhen Hailong?"
Given Mr. Zhen’s character, there was absolutely no way he would just pester his children once and leave it at that!
Zhen Yu had sensed sothing was off a while ago, but she wasn’t particularly curious about it. Moreover, with the high school entrance exams in between, she had been dragging it out until now, waiting for Han Mingyue to arrive so she could ask him directly.
"Ah... that thing..." Han Mingyue rarely showed a trace of youthful naivety, "I don’t know what my dad said to him, but it’s resolved now, right?"
Zhen Yu fell silent for a while before quietly nodding. Since Han Mingyue wasn’t clear on the specifics either, she didn’t want to pry further into it; she just needed to rember the favor from Uncle Han!
Anyway, Zhen Hailong currently held no presence in her eyes! As long as he didn’t bother her and her brother, she had no interest in dealing with his affairs!
Thinking this, Zhen Yu shifted the topic.
——
"Our long novel series is nearly finished serializing, have you thought about what’s next?"
"... No thoughts for the mont." When it ca to serious matters, Han Mingyue slowly regained his composure.
"I just mailed out my preliminary draft for the essay competition at the beginning of this month and have been busy reviewing since."
"I would’ve forgotten if you hadn’t ntioned it!" Zhen Yu then rembered the New Concept competition, "I haven’t even written it yet! When’s the submission deadline?"
Han Mingyue thought for a mont, "I rember it’s November, you can write it during the sumr vacation!"
"Great! It’s inconvenient to go out during these two months of sumr vacation, so I’m thinking of starting another long novel! Wanna join?"
"Sure." Han Mingyue agreed imdiately and then hesitated a bit before asking, "Why is it inconvenient to go out? I was thinking of using the sumr holidays to learn sothing new..."
"It’s been raining a lot this year! What do you want to learn?"
"Oh. I want to learn the guitar!" Han Mingyue didn’t ask further and simply voiced his thoughts.
Hearing this, Zhen Yu wasn’t surprised at all!
It seed like in the eighties and nineties, almost 100% of boys liked toying with this kind of instrunt.
"Guitar... there seems to be a shop nearby First High School! Wait for the rain to stop and then go enroll!"
"Okay."
After answering with that one word, Han Mingyue suddenly fell silent, just staring quietly straight at Zhen Yu.
Zhen Yu t his gaze for a while and gradually began to feel the air in the room thickening! Why was it slightly difficult to breathe...
Too quiet! As if faintly, Zhen Yu seed to hear her own heartbeat! Thumping, sotis strong, sotis weak! Loud like a drum, gentle like a plucked string.
——
In such profound silence, where you could "hear a pin drop," Han Mingyue suddenly spoke up!
His voice was low, as if reluctant to break the atmosphere.
"Co here."
"!" Zhen Yu felt as if her ears were ringing, yet not ringing! An indescribable sensation prickled her brain nerves, making her feel as if even her cerebral cortex was tightly clenched!
Seeing her standing still, Han Mingyue couldn’t help but softly call out again, "Xiao Yu, co here."
Zhen Yu could no longer overthink it, and took two steps in one to move forward!
Her little face tensed up severely!
There’s only one thought in my mind!
"Please, just shut up!"
Han Mingyue was sitting on the edge of Zhen Yu’s bed facing the door. Now that she finally complied and ca closer, his face lit up with joy as he raised his arm, wanting to hold her hand and share so heartfelt words...
But the next second! Zhen Yu swiftly moved beside him and covered his mouth in one swift motion!
"Mmph," Han Mingyue managed to let out half a shriek before he could no longer breathe... Zhen Yu, in her haste, covered his mouth so tightly that she even pressed against his nostrils, completely sealing them!
After being smothered for a second, Han Mingyue rembered he needed to get out of this situation urgently. He tilted his head back quickly but couldn’t escape the hand that seed glued to his face.
After a couple of futile "mmphs," Han Mingyue had no choice but to grasp Zhen Yu’s wrist to pull her hand away.
But Zhen Yu simply refused to let go!
Han Mingyue didn’t dare to exert too much force, and after a couple of tugs saw her determined not to release her grip, he just loosely circled her wrist and stopped trying.
But he couldn’t just stop breathing, could he? One sitting, the other standing, and Zhen Yu wouldn’t even look at him! Han Mingyue couldn’t even exchange a glance with Zhen Yu to let her know he couldn’t breathe!
It seems that when a person is nearly driven mad, they co up with the most bizarre ideas. All of a sudden, Han Mingyue stuck out his tongue and licked the palm of Zhen Yu’s hand...
"Ah!" Zhen Yu recoiled as if bitten by a dog, and let out a shriek, attempting to draw her hand back!
Naturally, Han Mingyue wasn’t going to let her get away, and his grip on her wrist imdiately tightened!
The two were pulling and tugging, sohow, it turned into a deadlock.
Their eyes t, and it was Zhen Yu’s cheeks that turned red first! And they got redder and redder...
"Xiao Yu,"
Han Mingyue had only uttered two words when Zhen Yu interrupted him with a long string of pleading.
"Don’t talk, don’t talk! You first, don’t say anything! Consider it begging you!" By the end, her voice took on a quivering tone, as if on the verge of crying...
Han Mingyue blinked his eyes while looking up, even though he had so many questions to ask her! But seeing Zhen Yu’s clearly agitated state at the mont, he ultimately just nodded silently.
——
So the two of them started to sit in silence again.
Han Mingyue kept his gaze on Zhen Yu, while she continued to look down at the floor.
Because she didn’t dare to et Han Mingyue’s eyes! Those eyes were too clear, making her feel particularly—sleazy.
Even though Zhen Yu had never had a romantic relationship in her past life, nor had she been close to any male. But even soone who hasn’t eaten pork has seen pigs run... She might not be able to recite every detail about love scenes from novels, but she certainly rembered them vividly, right?!
So she blushed just now! Not a shy blush, but a blushing out of... embarrassnt! Having such... thoughts about soone ’so young’, Zhen Yu felt she must be outrageously inappropriate!
With such emotions, how could Zhen Yu not feel miserable?!
Her whole mindset exploded, hey!
After a long, long ti! So long that Zhen Yu felt her feet were about to go numb!
She finally took the initiative to speak: "Let go of , let sit for a while."
Han Mingyue: "..."
Can’t you sit while holding hands? Han Mingyue answered himself with a satisfactory practical action.
He first stood up and pressed Zhen Yu down to sit on the edge of the bed. Then he sat down next to her. The whole ti, he never let go of Zhen Yu’s wrist, leaving her with no way to deal with him.
She glanced at her watch with a flick of her eyes, dinner ti was still far off!
Zhen Yu could only warn herself in her mind, "Hold on! You can do this! A poker face won’t reveal any flaws!"
