Hua Kexin couldn't sleep, so she took out her cell phone and sent a message to Lu Yanbai.

"Second cousin, I'm home. I've already taken a shower and am now lying on the bed ready to go to sleep!"

The time difference between country D and country Y is one hour.

It is five o'clock in the morning in Country D and four o'clock in the morning in Country Y.

After sending the message, she didn't expect to receive a reply from Lu Yanbai immediately, so after sending the message, she prepared to turn off the phone and put it back under the pillow.

Unexpectedly, the other party replied as soon as the message was sent.

"Good night, sweet dreams!"

After seeing Lu Yanbai's reply, Hua Kexin suddenly had a bold idea. Thinking of this possibility, her eyes lit up and she sent another reply.

"Second cousin, you haven't been waiting for my message, have you?"

Lu Yanbai did not deny it, and answered directly! "Yes!"

Hua Kexin's heart instantly felt as sweet as if it were filled with honey, and her eyes and brows were filled with a faint smile.

"Didn't I tell you to go to bed early? Why are you still staying up late? It's almost dawn."

That's what she said, but only she herself knew that she was not angry at all, but very happy instead.

Proves that she has always been important in her second cousin's mind.

"I can't sleep because I'm worried about you!"

Hua Kexin stared at the seven words with wide eyes, unable to believe what she saw.

My second cousin couldn’t sleep because he was worried about him!

Hey.

Hua Kexin smiled like a fool.

Perhaps because he saw that she hadn't replied to his message for a long time, Lu Yanbai sent another message.

"Sleep?"

Hua Kexin was afraid that he would misunderstand, so she replied immediately.

"No! Is second cousin going to sleep? If second cousin is sleepy, go to sleep first. We can contact each other after he wakes up."

"Not sleepy yet!"

These three short words made Hua Kexin instantly happy.

"Then let's video?"

As soon as the message was sent, Lu Yanbai's video call came immediately.

Hua Kexin immediately tidied her appearance, pulled up her collar, and tucked her hair behind her ears. After making sure that she was fine, she answered the video call.

Lu Yanbai’s face appeared on the phone screen.

Hua Kexin's breathing stagnated, and a suspicious blush appeared on her little face.

She didn't know what was wrong with her. They had just separated, but when they video chatted again, she felt nervous and a little embarrassed.

What's wrong with her?

You're not sick, are you?

Seeing that she didn't speak, Lu Yanbai asked worriedly: "Ke Xin, what's wrong with you?"

Hua Kexin was afraid that Lu Yanbai would see through her, so she immediately shook her head and said, "I'm fine, it's just that the network was a little delayed, and my phone didn't respond."

Lu Yanbai did not doubt her words. Looking at the familiar little face on the phone screen, his eyes gradually became gentle.

"How's your calf feeling? Is it better?"

"It still hurts a little, but the doctor said that the pain in the first seven days is normal, and it's okay! How about you? Have you left for the next stop?"

"Not yet. I guess I'll have to stay here for another day. We'll leave the day after tomorrow!"

Hua Kexin kept on telling me like an old woman: "You should rest well and don't tire yourself out. You are so old now and shouldn't work as hard as young people. You should take care of your body because health is your most important thing."

Lu Yanbai was deeply hurt by her words.

"Am I—that old?"

He is only seven years older than her, okay?

A man is twenty-seven years old, which is the prime of his life!

Hua Kexin chuckled: "That depends on who you compare yourself with. Compared to me, you are definitely older! People say that there is a generation gap every three years. There are two and a half generations between the two of us!"

Lu Yanbai: "...??"

There is no way to chat today.

Can't he just sleep well?

Gotta seek abuse.

Seeing that he was depressed, Hua Kexin smiled even more happily.

"Haha, I'm just kidding! How can my second cousin be old? You look like a college student. If you don't tell me your age, who would have known that you are already 27 years old! Hehe..."

Lu Yanbai: "...??"

Uh!

In fact, there is really no need to mention age again and again.

It’s better not to praise like this.

Can't we just have a good chat?

Here, two people were chatting happily, and the atmosphere was warm and sweet.

On the other side, Chu Annian also finished his shower and lay down on the bed. He took out his mobile phone, found Lu Yanbai's WeChat, and edited it for a long time, repeatedly typing long paragraphs. After deleting and modifying, he still felt that it was inappropriate. In the end, he deleted everything and only sent one sentence.

"Master, Ke Xin and I have already arrived at the Hua family!"

It took a long time for the message to be replied.

When he opened the message with great anticipation, he only saw a short word.

"Ok!"

There wasn't a single extra word, not even a perfunctory expression of concern.

His eyes dimmed, he turned off his phone and put it back on the bedside table.

The next day.

When Hua Kexin woke up, Chu Annian had already left. He went directly from Hua's house to the airport and took the ten o'clock flight to Country Y.

Hua Yunqing couldn't help but sigh: "I have to say, Xiao Chu is really hardworking! He got up after resting for less than five hours, and then left in a hurry!"

Hua Kexin said: "It's just right that he went. He can help me look after my second cousin so that he doesn't have to work day and night!"

Qin Manman supported her head with one hand and looked at Hua Kexin thoughtfully.

"Ke Xin! I think Xiao Chu is a really good kid now! I didn't think highly of you two at first, but now I have no objection! Our family is not short of money, and we don't ask you to get married for the sake of the family business. Your father and I just hope you can be happy. Besides, Xiao Chu is also working hard to make progress. If you really like him, your father and I have no objection!"

When Hua Kexin heard this, her expression did not change at all, she just said "Oh" faintly.

Qin Manman and Hua Yunqing looked at each other and felt that there was something wrong with their precious daughter's reaction.

Logically speaking, my daughter should be happy after hearing this!

Why does it feel like this matter has nothing to do with her at all?

Doesn’t my daughter like Chu Annian?

The cold reaction made them not know how to react for a moment.

Qin Manman stared at Hua Kexin without blinking and asked tentatively: "Kexin, do you really like Xiaochu?"

Hua Kexin didn't even think about it and answered without hesitation: "I like it!"

Qin Manman: "...??"

Hua Yunqing: "...??"

Qin Manman felt that her precious daughter might have fallen into a misunderstanding.

"Is this love you're talking about the kind of love between a man and a woman? Is it... uh... the kind where you like him, want to marry him, give birth to his children, be together for the rest of your life, and never be apart?"

Hua Kexin took a sip of the beef bone soup.

Ah!

The soup made by my aunt at home is still the best and suits her taste best.

Her attention was focused on the beef bone soup, and she didn't think carefully about Qin Manman's words at all. She said casually: "You are talking too far ahead. I am only twenty years old. Who would think about such a distant thing!"

Her nonchalant words and expression completely stunned Qin Manman.

Matters of the heart may be related to age, but there’s no need to worry about it.

She knew she liked Hua Yunqing since she was twelve years old and wanted to marry him and start a family with him in the future.

When Shen Luoxue was born, Chen Bao was only six years old.

Chen Bao has always treated her as his wife since she was a child.

When Shen Luoxue got into trouble, Chen Bao was only in his twenties.

Even the current Weiwei is only one year older than Kexin.

If you really like someone, the first time you see him/her, you will definitely start planning your future together in your mind.

Her daughter had none of that.
