Chapter 275 - 113 Start Action Childhood Shadow_2
Yun Ya hurriedly changed the subject, asking him if he had been listening to his professor recently, if he had been eating on time, and doing his listening and speaking exercises on schedule.
Miaomiao nodded desperately, then got up, brought back a flowerpot, and lifted it to the camera to show Yun Ya.
"It’s sprouted, Yaya, look, it’s sprouted."
In the bare flowerpot, a green sprout had peeked out, and although it was just a tiny spot of green, it was like the sole oasis in an endless desert, full of tenacious vitality and bright hope.
Yun Ya covered her mouth, "It really sprouted?"
Miaomiao’s smile was both excited and emotional as she nodded fiercely.
"That’s great, it’s symbolic, proof that Miaomiao’s illness is hopeful of being cured."
A sudden surge of hope filled Yun Ya’s heart, look, there are miracles in this world, and this miracle, will happen to Miaomiao.
At that moment, Yun Ya’s ears caught the sound of a car horn outside the window.
Has Yun Shen come back?
"Miaomiao, I’m going to sleep now, you take good care of yourself, and you listen to the professor and his wife, alright?"
It was past ten at night back home, while in Germany, it was just after three in the afternoon. She was going to sleep now, while over at Miaomiao’s place, the day was only half over.
Miaomiao reluctantly hung up the video call.
Yun Ya closed her laptop.
Downstairs, the sound of Yun Shen speaking could be heard, indicating that there was socializing tonight.
Thinking back to a recent call from Qin Du, Yun Ya vaguely guessed something.
Uncle Qin had started to act.
She didn’t understand business affairs, nor did she have an interest in them; she left those to Uncle Qin to resolve, trusting in his decade of laying low and biding his time.
Kang Jinse had not returned from shooting a commercial in Hong Kong.
Yun Shen would be spending the night alone with a cold bed, and in a drunken haze, what a good opportunity that was.
Yun Ya took out her phone and sent a message to Allen.
Soon, a black screen popped up with a cartoon character holding flowers, cute and lively, shaking its head and swaying as it offered the flowers to Yun Ya. Tapping on the character caused the flowers to float down like scattered petals from a celestial maiden, with a large OK appearing at the top of the screen.
Yun Ya couldn’t help but curl her lips into a smile. That Allen, always coming up with such fresh gadgets, surely knows how to win a girl’s heart.
After putting away her phone, she opened the door and walked out.
Downstairs, Yun Shen gulped down two large glasses of cold water. Aunt Li wanted to make him some hangover soup, but Yun Shen waved his hand, "No need, you go and rest."
Yun Shen sat in the living room for a while, waiting for the alcohol to subside a bit before he headed upstairs.
Three minutes earlier—
Yun Ya knocked on Kang Jinxian’s room door, and Kang Jinxian, wearing a cartoon pajama, opened the door. Seeing Yun Ya, she subconsciously frowned.
"Aunt Ah Xian, did I disturb your sleep?" Yun Ya said sweetly with a smile.
Kang Jinxian’s lips curled into a smile, "I was reading a book and haven’t slept yet. What do you need?"
Yun Ya seemed a bit hesitant to speak, biting her lip and lowering her head to say softly, "I... I got my period, but I didn’t prepare in advance. Aunt Ah Xian, could you lend me a couple?"
Between girls, some things are understood without being said aloud.
"Wait here; I’ll go get them for you." Kang Jinxian turned and went back into her room.
Soon, Kang Jinxian stuffed a pack of 7 Degrees Space Sanitary Napkin into Yun Ya’s hands, "Here, take this whole pack."
Yun Ya said with a smile, "Aunt Ah Xian, you’re so kind, you’ve solved my urgent need."
She lifted her hand to brush the hair that had slipped to her face behind her ear, a whiff of fragrant air inadvertently wafted to Kang Jinxian’s nose, slightly intoxicating her. Just then, Yun Shen walked up from downstairs, Yun Ya turned her head to look.
"Ah... Dad’s drunk, and Aunt Jiang isn’t home; looks like no one will take care of Dad."
She heaved a sigh and turned back to her room.
Kang Jinxian was stunned for a moment. She peeked out from inside the door, only to see Yun Shen’s tall figure slowly approaching.
He was indeed a bit drunk, but he was walking steadily, appearing no different from a sober person.
Kang Jinxian bit her lip and walked towards him.
"Brother, did you drink?"
Yun Shen glanced at her and walked into his room, and after a moment’s hesitation, Kang Jinxian followed.
Yun Shen reached for his tie, but somehow, the more he tried, the tighter it got.
"Let me help you." Kang Jinxian tiptoed, gently untangled his tie for him.
Yun Shen looked down at the girl in front of him. With her fluffy short hair and the lighting making her delicate face appear softer, her skin was so fair it almost reflected light, and wearing an oversized cartoon pajama, she seemed even slimmer, inexplicably invoking a sense of protectiveness.
