Under the blue sky and white clouds is a vast ocean, and sporadic seagulls occasionally fly by, like apostles of nature, proudly looking down on the sparse tourists on the beach.In late autumn, the tourist season in Z Province has passed, and more locals come here at this time.

In a corner where the waves beat, two children about four or five years old were staying on the shore.Judging from the cute and gorgeous children's casual dress on her body, it might be the two lovely daughters of some family.The short-haired girl was blowing the gentle sea breeze, smiling wildly.The long-haired girl blinked, sometimes looked towards Bilan ahead, and sometimes turned to the short-haired girl as if examining...

"Sister, today I heard the story of the mermaid princess." The long-haired girl said suddenly.

"Huh?" The short-haired girl was taken aback for a moment, and then said angrily, "Don't call me sister!".Then she paused, and found that the long-haired girl didn't seem to care, just blinked and stared at her, and asked helplessly, "What did you just say?"

"I said Mermaid Princess! Haven't you heard of it? My mother told me, it's very funny."

"My dad doesn't let my mom tell stories. He always reads to me by himself, which are things I don't understand." Speaking of this, the short-haired girl pouted, her face full of grievance and frustration.

"Let me tell you." The long-haired girl comforted with a smile.

"Okay!" Hearing the story, the short-haired girl was curious and excited, and suddenly cheered up.

So, the long-haired girl happily began to narrate based on her memory and her own feelings: "Once upon a time there was a prince who fell into the sea and was about to drown..."

"En..." The short-haired girl listened intently, and echoed from time to time to express her pleasure.Whenever I got to a tense place, I couldn't wait to ask: "What happened next?"

"The mermaid princess saved the prince many times...the prince finally learned how to swim...so they swam happily in the sea and saw a lot of beautiful things..." Intermittently, the long-haired girl used only her time as a child She vividly told the story of this version of the mermaid princess in her eyes in a language that she could only understand.

"Ah... I really want to meet the mermaid princess too!" The short-haired girl said with emotion after listening to the story.Although she grew up in a seaside city, she was born with a fear of water. Although her parents tried to teach her to swim, they all ended in failure.

"Then try it!" The long-haired girl ran towards the sea while talking.Unlike the short-haired girl, even though she is still a child, she has learned to swim a long time ago, and she can even be said to have good skills. "Come down, don't be afraid, the mermaid princess will come to save you." She waved to the short-haired girl on the bank innocently.

Seeing the long-haired girl having fun in the water like a fish, the short-haired girl was a little moved.So she moved forward cautiously.The cold sea water overflowed the insteps, at first I was a little nervous, but then I was a little excited. "Maybe I can go down by myself..." She was thinking like this, and slightly accelerated her moving pace...

……

"Puff... Puff puff..." The short-haired girl suddenly struggled.It turned out that although this is a shoal, there are still some dark pits hidden.Although the depth of these tunnels is only a little over one meter, to a child who can't swim, they are like an abyss. "... Gululu..." With the sound of water bubbles, she sank...

"Ah!!! Help~! Xiaoling~ You lied to me, there is no mermaid princess at all~!" Hao Mei shouted, while standing up suddenly, with only the familiar four walls in front of her eyes, her back was covered in cold sweat.

A pair of strong arms hurriedly supported Hao Mei, and asked eagerly, "What's the matter? Have a nightmare?"

"KO~..." Hao Mei showed a pitiful look and looked at the people around her, full of dependence.

"En." The puppy-like innocent eyes made those who saw it feel distressed, "Don't be afraid." KO gently stroked Hao Mei's back, calming him down gradually.

"I dreamed that I fell into the sea and drowned and nearly drowned me..."

"It's just a dream, don't be afraid." KO held Hao Mei's hand tightly, and continued to comfort: "I'm here!"

"No, it's not a dream, it's something from my childhood..." Hao Mei leaned on KO, but couldn't stop her thoughts...

Before she was born, Hao Mei was expected as a daughter.It stands to reason that most families with backgrounds are more patriarchal, but the Hao family is strange, the family has never been short of men, and the scarce daughter has become a favorite.Therefore, when all the relatives in the Hao family heard that Hao's mother was going to give birth to a daughter, they all expressed their earnest attention and blessings.But things backfired, Hao Mei was born, born to be a leader.

Despite this, Hao's mother still thought that this might be some kind of revelation from God, so she insisted on raising Hao Mei as a daughter in secret.Although Hao's father did not agree at first, but after Hao's mother repeatedly tried hard, he finally compromised.Moreover, there is indeed a custom of raising sons as daughters in certain places in the province of Z—the elders believe that raising boys before the age of 7 as girls will make it easier for them to be blessed by the gods, and the children will grow up happily.Thus, Hao Mei became Mother Hao's "daughter".

Before she was three years old, Hao Mei didn't know how she was different from other children, and she never felt that her name was ambiguous.At that time, he was really a pure little angel, living a carefree life every day.But on her third birthday, everything changed...

A little girl about the same size as Hao Mei came to Hao Mei's birthday party, and that was the first time she met Hao Mei.

"Hi, my name is Le Ling." The little girl greeted with a smile, her pretty face was as cute as a little princess in a fairy tale.

"Hi, my name is Hao Mei." It was the first time Hao Mei saw such a cute child, and she responded with a smile as bright as the sun.

"Are you sister Haomei?" The little girl suddenly grabbed Hao Mei's skirt and asked seriously, "Tell my mother quickly, are you sister Haomei? Not brother Haomei!"

It was the first time in Hao Mei's life that she encountered such a sudden situation, and she was immediately at a loss. "I'm Hao Mei..." He didn't understand what the little girl's question meant, so he didn't know how to answer it either.

"Mom said boys are the elder brothers, but boys don't wear skirts!" The little girl pulled Hao Mei's skirt even tighter.

This action completely frightened Hao Mei, and suddenly he felt wronged and sad, and burst into tears...

Afterwards, the little girl was taken away amidst her mother's scolding.But she kept repeating clearly and repeatedly: "She is a beautiful sister, not a beautiful brother! She is a beautiful sister, not a beautiful brother!..."

Hearing what the little girl said, Hao Mei suddenly felt that she had been wronged so much, and cried even harder.

After that, Hao Mei gradually understood the difference between men and women, and became more and more dissatisfied with the naming and dressing up of her parents.So once he heard others make fun of him, Hao Mei would explode.Regarding my experience of being raised by a son when I was a child, it has become a dark history that I never mention...

The next morning, Hao Mei poked out half of her head from under the quilt lazily, and looked sleepily at the alarm clock beside the bed.sky!It's almost 12 o'clock!He quickly turned over and jumped up. "KO?" The name flashed in my mind, and then I picked up the phone, and there was a text message on it.

"You didn't sleep well last night, I asked Xiao Nai for half a day off, you should rest more. I have something to do at noon, there are sauerkraut and beef dumplings in the refrigerator, warm them up and eat."

Hao Mei, who had read the text message, suddenly calmed down.He walked slowly to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, brought out the plate of round dumplings, took a deep breath, "Sweet!" The little happiness on his face couldn't be concealed.

At noon, in a coffee shop in the imperial capital, a very discordant man and woman sat facing each other.One has a frosty face, but is extremely handsome; the other has a peachy face, but is aggressive.A war without gunpowder is being staged here.

"I didn't expect you to come to the appointment." The woman pretended to be surprised with a clear face.

"What's the matter?" The man asked lightly, not caring about the woman's attitude.

"I haven't introduced myself formally yet. I'm Le Ling, a friend of Hao Mei's since she was a child." The woman put away the changeable and rich expressions before, and said seriously.

"I'm KO, Hao Mei's boyfriend."

"...I didn't expect you to be so frank." Seeing the man expressing such important information with a blank face, the woman felt a little dissatisfied, "In that case, I'll get straight to the point. You and Hao Mei are not suitable, you don't Should be together."

"Hao Mei didn't say that." The man returned calmly, with a faint determination in his tone.

"I know Hao Mei better than you. I have known him since I was three years old!"

"Time is not the key to know a person."

"Hmph, then tell me what you know about Hao Mei?" Facing the man's calm attitude, the woman asked a little excitedly.

"Hao Mei is just Hao Mei, she doesn't look like anything!"

"..."

This seemingly sophistical answer showed the man's considerable confidence, or his confidence in Hao Mei, which made the woman unable to refute.

"Well, even if you and Hao Mei are very good, have you considered his family?" The woman didn't intend to entangle on the same issue, but instead attacked other sensitive areas.

"Thought about it." The man replied unhurriedly.

"Think about it?" The woman expressed disbelief, "Then tell me, what if Hao Mei's parents don't accept you?"

"Let them take it."

"Hmph, to put it lightly. The Hao family has a big business and many relatives and friends. Do you know how much trouble you and Hao Mei will bring to his parents?"

"I know."

"What do you know? What if they can't accept it?" Hearing the man's fluent answers, the woman gradually ignited a nameless anger, "Are you going to elope with Hao Mei!?"

"Hao Mei is very filial, he won't be willing."

"Filial piety?" The woman suddenly felt annoyed and funny. No one had ever said that Hao Mei was filial. In the eyes of many relatives and friends, Hao Mei was just a child who didn't grow up. It would be nice if she didn't become a real prodigal.

"I can see it." The man seemed to understand the woman's doubts, and immediately explained.

"..." The woman was at a loss for words for a moment.

"Hao Mei still needs time. When the time comes, I will accompany him and let his parents accept. No matter what, I will not make Hao Mei sad." This is the first time the man said several words in a row during this meeting. Saying, "Hao Mei is suitable for smiling more."

Looking at the man, although his tone is flat, his words are powerful, and his eyes are full of determination... and tenderness.The woman's anger subsided a lot at once, so she smiled again and asked: "I am a rich and powerful young lady, why do you fight with me? I have plenty of ways to snatch Hao Mei away!"

The man raised his head slightly, cast his gaze into the pupils of the other party for the first time, and said three words: "You don't know how."

"?!" The woman was startled for a moment, then covered her face lightly with one hand, and raised her head unconsciously, "Haha...haha...hahahahahaha..." After a burst of laughter, it was rare to show a gentle expression, " It’s really you, KO! I’m almost KO by you, haha...haha..."

When Hao Mei returned to Zhiyi, it happened to be working time in the afternoon. KO has returned to the company and, as usual, is concentrating on coding.

"KO, the dumplings are so delicious!" Hao Mei showed a habitual smile and praised the chef who prepared all kinds of delicacies for herself every day.

"En." KO stopped what he was doing and looked up at Hao Mei.That smiling face is enough for him to remember for a lifetime, no matter how much he looks at it, he will never get tired of it.Then, he handed over a letter.

"Is this? For me?" Hao Mei wondered, why did she have to write a letter?Then he saw the signature [TO Hao Mei...BY Le Ling...], "Xiaoling gave it to me?"

"kindness."

"What is she doing?" Holding doubts, Hao Mei quickly opened the letter:

[Brother Hao Mei (you don’t like to listen, I’ll call you Sister Hao Mei (_)), I’m sorry, I secretly made an appointment with KO at your house yesterday and wanted to talk to him, so we met today, don’t be jealous Oh (it’s okay if you’re jealous for me (><)).Then we talked a lot.Well... The conclusion is that he is really a good man, you have to hurry up (if you don't want it, I will snatch it away (ω)).

Well, I'm going back to London this afternoon, so you don't need to see me off, anyway, all that should be said is over now (I don't want you (●—●)).This is my MSN ([email protected]), please take it~

PS. Aunt Hao said that your father has figured it out and will not force you to inherit the family business anymore. Go back and see them when you have time! (Friendly reminder ~ remember to bring KO, you know (ω)).

BY your fiancée who is not married to KO! ]

"This...Xiaoling, what a mess..." After reading the letter, the blushing Hao Mei said so.

"En." KO watched quietly, his eyes as gentle as water.

"Aren't you guys in collusion? You deliberately made me angry!" Although he vented his anger towards KO, he put away the letter just now.

"No." KO raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

……

"KO~" Hao Mei stopped feigning anger, stared at KO with wide eyes and said seriously, "I want to go home...I mean my parents' place."

"kindness."

"Can you go back with me?"

"kindness."
