“Brother, why are you so nosy? I’m still young.” Li Zexin elbowed Li Zexuan.
“You’re not playing anymore?” Lin Wan glanced at the kids who were taking a break by the shore.
“Auntie Lin, I want to eat ice cream.” Li Zekai kicked at the water with his little foot.
“Li Zekai, open your mouth and take a look at your cavities. Do you still want to eat ice cream?”
Li Zekai muttered, “Brother Xinxin, my cavities are from eating candy, not ice cream. There’s a freezer over there.”
Lin Wan looked in the direction he pointed, There was indeed a freezer with a QR Code. It was self-service.
“Alright, I’ll go buy some. Do you two want some too?” Lin Wan asked the other two kids.
“Now that you mention it, it seems quite hot. I want a small cone,” said Li Zexin.
“Auntie Lin, I’ll go with you. I want to see what flavors they have.” Li Zekai put on his shoes and stood up. His injuries seemed to have healed miraculously.
“Your foot doesn’t hurt anymore?”
“No, it doesn’t hurt,” Li Zekai said as he hopped a little ahead.
In Yun City, Xia MO had her husband and son pack their luggage as soon as they arrived home.
Xiao Yi prepared three sets of clothes and packed his notebook. In case he got bored, he could play some games.
Xiao Tianlin brought along his supplements.
Xiao Yi sent a message to his teammates and informed them that he wouldn’t be online very frequently for the next ten days.
His teammates responded with sighs of disappointment. They had been looking forward to winter break, so they could play games to their hearts’ content, but now their leader had something to attend to. “Everyone, spend more time with your families.”
“Alright. See you, boss.”
At night, before boarding, Xia MO sent a message to Lin Wan. “Boarding soon. Will be there on time. Going to turn off my phone now. See you after I land.”
Lin Wan received the message and put on her coat. “Xia MO and the others are boarding. Let’s go.”
When he heard that Xiao Yi would be arriving, Li Zexin prepared the spare room for him.
On the plane, Xiao Yi sat by the window and looked out at the pitch-black night. He was lost in thought.
Xia MO and Xiao Tianlin whispered to each other. Xiao Tianlin smiled in contentment. “Honey, am I dreaming? Pinch me, please. We were still busy buying New Year’s goods in the morning, and now we’re on a plane.”
Xia MO pinched her husband’s arm.
“Oh dear, this is all true!” Xiao Tianlin grinned. “It’s real! How long has it been since our family took a trip like this?”
Xia MO counted on her fingers. “It’s been around two or three years. That is after excluding our trip to Lan Village.”
“That long? Didn’t we go on a trip last year?”
“Yes, I guess. Why are you so excited?”
“Well, after our son entered high school, he rarely participated in family activities. It’s rare that he agreed this time. That makes me happy,” Xiao Tianlin said and glanced at his son.
Xiao Yi was lost in thought. He didn’t hear his parents.
At Yan City Airport, Li Yanchen arrived half an hour early and spent some time in the car with Lin Wan. When the alarm rang, they got out of the car.
The airplane door opened. The three of them gathered their luggage and left their seats. As they exited the airport, a wave of heat hit them.
Xiao Tianlin took off his padded jacket. “It’s so warm here.”
Xiao Yi was wearing a windbreaker. “I told you to dress lighter. Even if it’s in the twenties, it can get chilly in the morning and evening.”
“I miscalculated.” Xiao Tianlin shrugged. “But luckily, I’m clever. I only wore one shirt on the inside. Taking my jacket off won’t be a problem at all.”
“Can we talk outside? Lin Wan might have arrived by now.” Xia MO urged her family to move ahead.
At the exit, Lin Wan stood on tiptoes and looked inside. The late-night flight had few passengers. When Xia Mo’s group came out, Lin Wan spotted them easily. She waved at them.
“They’re over there.” Xia MO quickened her pace.
Xiao Tianlin hugged Li Yanchen. “Brother Li, we meet again! I’m here to mooch off you.”
Xiao Yi politely greeted them.
In the living room of the homestay, Li Zexin was restless. He sat down, then stood up, and then tried to lie down on the bed.
“Li Zexin, can you stop moving so much?” Li Zexuan said.
“I can’t stay still!”
“Brother, you’re making me dizzy. Are you this excited every time Xiao Yi visits?”
“Yeah. We’re celebrating the New Year together! Do you even understand what that means? Mr. Li used to be away during the New Year, but now, he is here with us. And more people are on the way! Aren’t you excited?”
“Yeah, I guess. But even if Xiao Yi hadn’t come, we still have quite a few people here.”
“Well, I am celebrating the New Year this year with all my favorite people! Jiejie, you might not understand. You are still a kid. But Brother Xuanxuan must understand. I feel like a fan getting to spend the holiday with his idol! I could do backflips in excitement.”
Li Zexuan looked at his brother disdainfully. “Li Zexin, you’re eighteen now, so act more mature.”
Just then, the doorbell rang.
Li Zexin didn’t even have time to put on his shoes and dashed barefoot to open the door.
Xiao Yi was standing outside with the others.
“Wind God!” Li Zexin lunged forward.
Xiao Yi was jolted by the impact of the hug. “Ow!”
Li Zexin quickly let go. “I’m sorry. I was just too excited. Come in quickly.”
It was as if Xiao Yi was Li Zexin’s only friend. He led him to the living room.
Everyone exchanged greetings.
Lin Wan showed Xia Mot s family to the other two spare rooms. It was already past midnight, and everyone had gone to their respective rooms except for Li Zexin.
Li Zexin stood by the door of Xiao Yi’s room. “Wind God, we meet again!” As Xiao Yi hung up his clothes in the closet. “Aren’t you sleepy?”
“Not at all. I had coffee before you arrived, and I’m a bit restless. How about we talk for a while?”
Xiao Yi turned and walked to the door and pushed Li Zexin out. “I’m going to bed once I’m done hanging my clothes. I’m tired. Go away.”
After saying that, he closed the door.
Li Zexin returned to his room in annoyance.
As he pushed the door open, he muttered, “Sleeping so soon…”
“Turn off the light for me,” Li Zexuan said as he pulled the covers up.
“Are you sleeping too?”
“What do you expect? It’s almost dawn.”
Li Zexin turned off the light and got into his bed. The coffee was finally kicking in. He counted sheep but still couldn’t fall asleep. He clutched at his pillow.
‘I did this to myself. Why did I even drink coffee so late? I just thought that… Wind God would be excited to talk to me. It seems everyone just wants to sleep.’
The next morning, everyone woke up at around 9 a.m.
Li Zexuan pulled back the curtains and saw that Li Zexin was on the balcony.
“Li Zexin, what are you doing?”
He slowly opened his eyes. “Is it already morning?” He struggled to get up. Sunlight stung his eyes.
“How are you sleeping here when it’s so bright?”
“I only fell asleep when it was already morning. Jiejie and your snoring was too loud!” said Li Zexin.
Next door, Xiao Yi stood on the balcony and stretched lazily. When he saw the Li brothers on the next balcony, he greeted them.
“Good morning..”
