A Young Woman's Heart

"what's wrong?"

"Didn't you get a spot to go to the beach with the teachers?"

"Yes, there are... but I have to go to work."

"Do you guys want to join? Xiao Ji is going too, so I'll give you a free unpaid vacation."

Although it's an unpaid leave, it's not bad.

Anyway, during the days I went to the beach with my homeroom teacher, they didn't have to pay for my food, lodging, or transportation.

Moreover, this wouldn't count as resigning, and I could continue working after returning.

Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to find such a good job again.

Not only is it easy, but the store manager, Duanmu Bi, is also easy to talk to, and most importantly, it's very close to home.

But Mo Xiaoxiao wasn't someone who only thought of herself: "What about the shop? There will probably be even more people during the summer vacation. If my sister and I go, won't we be too busy?"

"Don't worry, don't worry, I can manage if I work hard!" Duanmu Bi reassured her. "The business isn't that much, as long as you prepare in advance, it won't be too troublesome. It's only for half a month anyway. But there aren't many opportunities to go out and have fun like this, especially after graduating and starting work. You should travel more while you're young!"

"Really? Can we really go?" The younger sister suddenly snapped out of it. "Sister, I want to go to the beach! The teacher hasn't given us a definite answer yet, so let's officially register when we go to pick up our report cards!"

"But the boss will be very busy."

"Don't worry, don't worry," Duanmu Bi reassured her once again, "I can manage on my own, so you can go without worry!"

"How about I stay in the store and continue working, little sister, you go ahead?" Mo Xiaoxiao said as she put on her work clothes.

"Hey? I don't want to go either, sis..." the younger sister muttered reluctantly, pouting.

“Pfft, you two sisters should go together.” Duanmu Bi was quite understanding of the relationship between the two. “You’ve depended on each other for so many years, you’re definitely not used to being apart—even if it’s just for half a month.”

“Well…” Mo Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, then said gratefully, “Thank you, Sister Bi.”

"It's nothing, it's nothing. Hmm... I sometimes really need to consider changing my name, it sounds really weird."

Mo Zhuyou chuckled to herself. Actually, she wanted to say that the names of the siblings Duanmu Bi and Duanmu Ji sounded strange—but in the end, she didn't say it.

As a person, you always need to have some emotional intelligence.

People can hurt themselves, but it's not good to hurt others unless you're a very close friend.

……

"Yinyin—"

"What are you doing, Dad? That's so cheesy." Hua Yinyin looked at her father who pushed the door open and walked in with a blank expression. Her room was air-conditioned, so it was not only not hot, but also had a slight coolness.

At this moment, she was resting her chin on her hand, pondering where to begin with the painting in front of her.

"Your mother and I are going back to our hometown. Do you want to come?"

"Not interested." Hua Yinyin rolled her eyes. "You can go with her by yourself. I have to participate in an activity organized by my homeroom teacher to go to the beach."

"Hey, why aren't you clinging to me anymore? I remember when you were in junior high, you were like a little shadow, always following me around."

"When did I ever do that? If I'm going to go with anyone, it'll be with Mom." Hua Yinyin glanced lazily at her father. "Go out if you have nothing else to do, and remember to close the door."

"Hey, no, no, I haven't been back for two days, aren't you going to give me a hug?"

Are you a child?

"No, I'm not leaving until my daughter gives me a loving hug today."

"Are you an idiot..." Hua Yinyin drooped her eyelids, sat cross-legged on the carpet with her arms outstretched, "Then you can carry it yourself."

"Hey!" The father immediately picked up Hua Yinyin, but almost lost his strength and dropped her to the ground.

"Dad—!"

"Unexpected! Unexpected! Oh, it's been so long since I hugged you, why do you feel heavier?"

"How could I possibly gain weight! It's just that your daughter's figure has improved! Hey, Dad, are you trying to take advantage of me?"

"What do you mean? Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

"I think it's probably true," Hua Yinyin said confidently, struggling to jump down. "Okay, okay, are you done hugging me?"

"Sigh, it was so much better when she was little, I could hold her all the time. Now that she's grown up, she's no longer my little darling..." the father sighed sadly.

"Don't give me that. Mom said she always carried me when I was little. You don't like carrying me and you think it's too tiring to carry me for too long."

"Oh, no!" The father scratched his cheek awkwardly. "I'm just busy, I don't have much time to hold you, and you were really fussy when you were little, my arms get tired from holding you..."

"Okay, okay, I'm going back to drawing comics now."

"What will you draw this time?"

"Of course, it's still about sweet stories of girls getting together."

"Is it the kind of thing that can be watched in public?"

"Hmph, of course—no way!"

"Quick, quick, let me see!"

"Go see your wife!" Hua Yinyin pushed her father out of the room and slammed the door shut.

However, she still didn't pick up a pen. After staring at the blank canvas for half an hour, she decided not to draw comics anymore, because even a short story would take a lot of time to start.

You might as well draw a nice illustration.

Then her thoughts began to wander, and images of herself and Mo Xueyao, disheveled and engaged in those enchanting acts on the bed, floated into her mind.

After a flash of inspiration, his hand moved involuntarily, first sketching an outline on the scroll, and then slowly adding details...

"I'll give it to Yaoyao after I finish drawing it," Hua Yinyin muttered to herself with a mischievous grin. "It'll be a surprise! Of course, she definitely won't like it, hehehe, no way, I'll force her to like it~"

……

"Lele, when are you leaving?" Wang Jiale's mother asked while cleaning.

"I don't know, we can't leave until we get our report cards," Wang Jiale said to the electric fan, listening to the trembling electronic sound coming through the blades.

"Do you need to prepare anything?"

"I'm packing now, Mom. Do we have any suitcases at home?"

"Yes, I'll go find it for you in a bit."

"Clothes, towels, toiletries, shower gel, and that's about it, right?"

"Aren't you going to bring some snacks? In case you don't get enough to eat there."

"Oh right, we should also bring some snacks."

"We're out of snacks at home, I'll go to the supermarket to buy some later."

“Great!” Wang Jiale perked up. Her mother usually didn’t let her eat snacks, so it was only on occasions like this that she could openly buy snacks, just like on a spring or autumn outing.

Are there many students going this time?

"There are quite a lot."

Are there any boys?

"Of course there are."

"Oh—don't hang out with the boys."

"I know, I know, I'll definitely hang out with the girls."

"Who knows? You're still too young to be in a relationship."

"Okay—" Wang Jiale said guiltily.

This time, Luberon will also be there.

The homeroom teacher, Ye Wen, even teased the two of them, asking if they wanted to sleep in the same room.

However, this was just a joke.

Even if they were willing, the homeroom teacher wouldn't agree.

After all, it would be terrible if someone died.

"Lele—" Just then, a long shout suddenly came from downstairs.

Wang Jiale's face turned deathly pale. She looked out the window and saw Lu Bolun waving excitedly at her.

"That idiot...!" Wang Jiale angrily made a 'shush' gesture, then hurriedly ran to the front door.

"Where are you going?" the mother asked, puzzled.

"Ah, I... I'm going to throw out the trash!"

"Why are you in such a hurry to throw away some trash?"

"Um... I'll also buy a bottle of Coke while I'm at it."

"Have you finished drinking all the beverage at home again?"

"Hmm...hehe..." Wang Jiale nodded with a dry laugh.

"Drink less cola, it's bad for your health."

"Okay, I'll just buy one bottle," Wang Jiale said, running out of the house, though in fact, she didn't take any trash with her.

As soon as I rushed downstairs, I saw Lu Bolun running over to me, looking very happy.

Wang Jiale grabbed his hand and ran to the back of the building across the street. With that building blocking their view, they could avoid being discovered by their mother.

"What are you doing? Didn't I tell you not to come if I didn't call you? You idiot!"

"Hehe... I still remember the way, isn't that amazing?"

"What's so great about that? My mom almost found out!" Wang Jiale glared at him. "What's wrong? What happened?"

"Uh, I'm on vacation and don't have much to do... I'd like to hang out with you..."

"Can't you do your summer homework if you have nothing to do? You'll be going to play for half a month, so you definitely won't have time to do it."

"It's early, no rush." ​​Lu Bolun squeezed Wang Jiale's small hand tightly. "Ah...that's right, seeing you makes me feel at ease."

"Are you some kind of baby who hasn't grown up yet?" Wang Jiale complained irritably. "Really."

"Ah...haha...right, Lele, have you prepared your things?"
