A Young Woman's Heart

“Springtime, when flowers are in bloom, is the perfect time to enjoy hot drinks,” Li Wanyan said, tossing her hair to the side.

Mo Xueyao stretched lazily and pointed to the rooftop of the laboratory building, saying, "The school anniversary celebration is almost over, right? Why don't we go sit on the rooftop for a while and not go back to the classroom?"

Li Wanyan nodded with a half-smile, seemingly having seen through her little scheme.

"Hehe, let's go!" Mo Xueyao happily ran over there after receiving permission.

The rooftop was as empty and quiet as ever, like another world separated from the rest of the school.

Mo Xueyao brushed away some dust from the cement platform, wrapped her skirt around her buttocks, and sat down abruptly.

She tilted her head back, leaned leisurely against the barbed wire, and looked at the sky above.

The bright sun shone on her, and a small black mole on her smooth, white neck did not detract from her beauty; instead, it added to her alluring femininity.

"Click—" She pulled the tab and took a sip of coffee.

To be honest, the coffee flavor wasn't very strong; instead, it had a rich milky aroma.

"Phew, drinking hot coffee in the sunshine feels pretty good too~" Mo Xueyao swayed gently, resting her head on Li Wanyan's shoulder, letting a few strands of her hair scratch her cheek.

"Mmm." Li Wanyan, dressed in a white dress, nodded gently and took a small sip of coffee.

"After the three-day school anniversary celebration ends, we'll have four days off in a row. Where should we go for fun?" Mo Xueyao took another sip of coffee, but she poured it too quickly and almost spilled it. This made her sit up straight in a hurry, swallow the coffee with difficulty, and then cough uncomfortably, "Cough, cough!"

"Don't drink so fast, you'll burn yourself!"

"No, it's not hot, but I choked." Mo Xueyao patted her chest hard to catch her breath.

"Where would Yaoyao like to go?"

"Me? Actually, four days isn't that long, and I don't know where to go." Mo Xueyao took another big gulp of coffee and looked down at the bustling playground that resembled a marketplace. "There aren't any attractions near Hangzhou that interest me—there are too many people, it's not fun at all."

"Let's go for a ride by bicycle then."

"Where to go?"

"Anywhere is fine."

"Wandering around aimlessly? Hmm... that doesn't sound bad, let's decide on that then."

Tired of school anniversary celebrations?

"No, no, it's just a little planning ahead, cough..." Mo Xueyao scratched her cheek awkwardly as she looked at Li Wanyan's gaze. "Well, I just feel a little impatient for it to pass quickly because I have to watch it in the classroom every day."

“We probably won’t need to watch over them for the next few days,” Li Wanyan replied. “The teacher said she’ll take care of it.”

"Really? Wen said so?"

"Ah."

"Oh, that's good! By the way, does the school have any events planned for tomorrow?"

"The afternoon is the semi-finals of the singing competition." Li Wanyan started recalling from the first thing that came to mind, "In the morning there were individual talent performances by the students."

"It seems like they're all pretty standard programs." Mo Xueyao finished the rest of her coffee in one gulp, then tried to crush the coffee shop with her fingers, only to find that it wasn't as soft as a cola can. Even with both hands, she couldn't crush it at all.

Of course, it's also possible that she's just not strong enough...

For the next hour, neither of them spoke again, but the atmosphere was not awkward at all; on the contrary, it was very relaxed and natural.

Mo Xueyao leaned against Li Wanyan, looking down at the people on the playground below who looked as tiny as ants, but Li Wanyan, whom she was leaning against, had fallen asleep...

Chapter 204 The Awkward Situation Between the Older Brother and the Younger Brother

The school anniversary celebration ended at the same time as school ends every day.

As students from various clubs began to pack up, other students who had nothing to do also left the school.

The school gate was unusually lively today, with many parents picking up their children from school, and of course, also wanting to see how the school anniversary celebration was going.

Although most clubs had already packed up, it was still clear how lively it was today.

"Sigh, it's not a top-tier high school, but they just love doing all this fancy stuff," one of the older parents sighed.

Of course, some people objected: "After all, it only happens once every hundred years, so it should be more grand. It's not bad that it's done this well."

"Students should focus on studying. What's the point of making such a grand school anniversary celebration? Will it help my child get high scores?"

Huang Zhengyang, who was waiting at the school gate, saw this scene.

As a young man, he muttered "old-fashioned" under his breath, then thought to himself, "Parents who think like this can't have good grades. It must be so miserable to live in a family like this."

Just then, he saw Huang Yuxi, dressed as a pretty boy, walk out of the school.

"Xiao Xi!" he called out as usual, then remembered the comics he had seen at his club's booth earlier that day about boys dating, and his face immediately turned a little embarrassed.

Huang Yuxi walked up to him with her head down and gently bumped her head against his body, as if she were being coquettish or complaining.

"Um, did you have fun at the school anniversary celebration today?"

Huang Yuxi nodded slightly, then kept her head down, not daring to look up at her brother.

Huang Zhengyang scratched his head, unsure how to continue the conversation, and finally chose to remain silent, walking towards the truck he had parked there.

Along the way, many girls couldn't help but turn their heads to look at him. Some guessed his gender, while others insisted that he was their favorite type of 'pretty boy'.

In front of the truck, Huang Zhengyang unlocked the door with a key, while Huang Yuxi opened the passenger door and struggled to climb in.

Huang Zhengyang quickly went behind him, hugged him tightly, and pushed him onto the seat.

After Huang Yuxi sat down, her face flushed slightly as she covered her chest and gently bit her lip.

It looked as if his older brother had bullied him.

Several girls passing by immediately fell into a delusional state of infatuation, just as it is not unacceptable for men for girls to be together.

It's not that girls can't accept boys being together.

Especially when one of them is a handsome young man...

"Cough cough!" Huang Zhengyang, who usually carried him up like this, was a little flustered today. He gently rubbed his fingertips and seemed to smell a faint body fragrance, which startled him so much that he hurriedly closed the car door and jumped back into the driver's seat.

It was as if some ferocious beast was chasing him.

The air seemed to freeze, making it hard for him to breathe.

So much so that I had to turn on the hand-cranked window at the traffic light and roll it down.

"Phew..." He breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but glance at Huang Yuxi, only to find him looking out the window with his hair hanging down naturally at his temples, slightly curly.

His profile really does resemble that of a little girl.

Huang Zhengyang couldn't help but think this to himself.

I couldn't help but get goosebumps all over.

I really shouldn't have watched bad stuff; it really affected me.

He scratched his head vigorously, wanting to say something several times along the way, but couldn't utter a word, and just like that, he returned home.

"I'm home." Huang Yuxi wrote on the whiteboard.

It seemed like they were asking why Huang Zhengyang had parked the car but wasn't getting out.

"Ahem, I was thinking about something just now." Huang Zhengyang changed the subject. "Do you still want me to carry you down today?"

"..." Huang Yuxi blushed and bit her lip, then wrote on the whiteboard, "No need, I can do it myself today."

"Ah, be careful then." The older brother breathed a sigh of relief, jumped out of the car, and then helped Huang Yuxi open the car door.

The latter took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and lightly leaped down.

Actually, the height wasn't that exaggerated; he was just a little afraid of heights.

He is the type of person who isn't afraid if there's protection, but becomes afraid of heights if there aren't railings, glass, or car doors blocking his way.

When he jumped down, his legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Huang Zhengyang, who was watching nearby, caught him in time.

His rough palm seemed to have accidentally touched something, causing Huang Yuxi to let out a soft moan, her face turning as red as if it were about to drip water.

"Ah, let's go upstairs, we're having fried meat patties today!" Huang Zhengyang hurriedly said loudly, "How many does Xiaoxi want?"

Huang Yuxi bit her tongue but did not answer.

Once home, the awkward atmosphere finally eased considerably because we weren't crammed together anymore.

Huang Yuxi sat by the French windows, gently swinging her legs and sipping a carton of milk.

He wasn't looking out the window, but at his own reflection in the glass.

As he stood there lost in thought, the aroma of food gradually filled the room.

Huang Zhengyang, who was frying meat patties in a 'kitchen' surrounded by cardboard boxes, looked a bit greasy all over.

But there's no other way, because if we don't surround it, the whole room will become greasy.

Sometimes, an overly advanced design can be quite useless without adequate hardware support.

"It's all sorted out! Dinner tonight is fried meat patties, Japanese tofu, and sweet and sour pork!" Huang Zhengyang tried to make his voice sound cheerful. "Xiao Xi, wash your hands and eat!"

"Hmm..." Huang Yuxi snapped out of her daze and realized that it was already getting dark outside.

However, it is already April, and the arrival of night has been delayed considerably. The sunset at six o'clock is still bright and looks like it will hang in the sky for a while longer.

At the dinner table, Huang Zhengyang took out a jar of white wine containing bayberries from the cupboard and poured it into a small wine glass with a 'glug glug' sound.

"Drinking again." Huang Yuxi looked at him with disdain and held up the whiteboard in her hand.

"Haha, the boss gave it to me, so of course I have to drink it. Besides, this wine has been stored for five years. This jar is nothing compared to the wine vat. If I don't drink it, it will all evaporate."

Huang Yuxi stared at Huang Zhengyang and pouted, "Then I want to drink too."

"No, you can't drink alcohol."

"Just a little bit." Huang Yuxi brought her face close to Huang Zhengyang's, her cheeks puffed out, as if she were angry.

His adorable appearance was too much for him to handle, so he could only scratch his head, take out a small wine glass, and pour him a little bit.

It's about a small bite.
