A Young Woman's Heart

"Let's go."

"Click".

"Everyone's here? Hmm, isn't someone missing?"

"Xiao Yao isn't here yet; she wants to sleep in," Mo Zhuyou explained.

Ye Wen nodded and climbed into Wang Qianyu's convertible sports car, which could only seat two people: "You and Qiu Yi get in together."

"Where is Teacher Qiu?" Hua Yinyin covered her forehead with her hand and looked into the distance.

"Here it is." A small Suzuki sedan drove out from behind the bus. It was the same car he used to drive. Although it was old, he had kept it and hadn't sold it to buy a new one.

"Huh, just one?"

"Let's squeeze in," Qiu Yi said helplessly, spreading her hands. "We don't have any other cars."

"How are we supposed to sit here..." Hua Yinyin circled the car twice. "There are going to be five people crammed into the back? Hey, that's impossible!"

"Ahem, it's not that far, hang in there."

"It's completely overloaded." Wang Jiale pouted.

"Damn, why isn't the wind coming to enjoy the breeze?"

"He's sleeping in!"

Behind me, a group of boys boarded the bus, which had already started moving and looked like it was preparing to go down the mountain.

"Alright, alright, hurry up and get on. Uh... the tall ones sit in the front. Who's the tallest?"

The other four people all turned to look at Li Wanyan and Cha Li.

"Should I sit in the front?" Cha Li asked with a smile.

"Okay, you sit in the front, and then squeeze in the back. Is it okay for four people to sit there? Let's stagger the seating."

"There's a serious problem—!" Wang Jiale exclaimed, already seated. "It's already cramped for three people..."

"Well, three of us can squeeze in, and one of us can sit on top of this storage box." Qiu Yi patted the storage box behind his gearshift lever; if you lower your head, you can sit there for a bit.

"What if there's one left?"

"Sit in my lap?" Cha Li suggested.

"Yes, that's it!"

"Teacher Qiu—could you buy a bigger car...it's overloaded!"

"Cough cough... Hang in there."

And so, Cha Li sat in the passenger seat, Hua Yinyin sat on Cha Li's lap, Li Wanyan, Mo Xiaoxiao and Mo Zhuyou squeezed into the back seat, and Wang Jiale, the petite one, sat on the glove compartment.

The engine of the old car made a tired panting sound, and after stalling several times, it finally started up and creaked and groaned as it carried everyone down the mountain.

"Silver is very soft."

"Hey, don't touch me like that!"

Don't you like it?

"Pfft, Cha Lili, Yin Yin is just saying that, she's actually incredibly shy."

"Who, who said that!"

"Alright, you two... stop moving around, okay..." Qiu Yi had a bit of a headache. "Don't bump into my gearshift."

"Screech—!" Suddenly, the car braked sharply, causing Wang Jiale, who was sitting on the glove compartment, to crash directly into Li Wanyan's arms.

"Uh... hiss..."

"Are you alright?"

"It's alright... phew... Ah Qiu, can you please drive more carefully?"

"Sigh, the bus in front braked suddenly, there was nothing I could do."

Wang Jiale pursed his lips, then suddenly his eyes lit up. He bent down with difficulty, took off his shoes, and simply lay down on the laps of the three girls in the back row.

"Hmm—that feels much better."

She propped her head up and leaned against Li Wanyan's chest, feeling exceptionally comfortable.

"Lele, you can actually stretch your legs out here? Are you really 1.5 meters tall?" Hua Yinyin turned her head slightly and laughed teasingly.

"Of course I have! I just straightened my upper body a little, otherwise I definitely wouldn't be able to straighten my legs!"

"Really? Hehehe~"

"Tch, Yinyin isn't much taller than me, you shorty!"

"I'm saying, short people shouldn't hurt each other, okay..." Mo Zhuyou was speechless.

However, the journey was far from boring, as wherever the two of them were, there was always a joyful atmosphere.

Chapter 277 The Sea and Idle Chatting

(One)

After passing through the dense jungle and driving along the smooth asphalt road, the view suddenly opened up in the distance, revealing a golden beach with unpolluted seawater lapping against the shore. On this wide beach, there was only a beautiful villa, as tranquil as a secluded paradise.

"Wow—the sea!" Wang Jiale jumped off the train and was the first to run out, just because she could finally escape the crowded carriage.

Everyone else got out of Qiu Yi's car, and they were all crammed in and out of their seats. Hua Yinyin, who wasn't used to riding in cars, immediately found a bush and vomited as soon as she got out of the car, so her breakfast was a complete waste.

"Thank goodness Xiaoyao didn't come, otherwise it would have been so crowded..."

"...Actually, someone can sit in the trunk too." Qiu Yi coughed twice.

Li Wanyan looked at him expressionlessly with her slightly pale face, and for some reason, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

"Let's go swimming in the sea!" Mo Zhuyou took off her shoes and let her sister hold them, while she herself, wearing white stockings, ran towards the sea on the golden sand.

"Wait, Youyou, you didn't bring your swimsuit."

"Huh?"

"Oh right—" Wang Jiale had just realized this important issue, "Without swimsuits, all we can do when we go to the beach is look at the water."

"Haha, don't worry, there are plenty of clothes in the villa. You guys... Wang Jiale can try on Taiyin's swimsuit, and the other girls can try on your teacher Qianyu's. They have plenty of swimsuits, many of which they've never even worn before."

"Eh~? Can I wear Wen's swimsuit then?!" Hua Yinyin shouted immediately, not even having time to wipe the filth from the corner of her mouth after vomiting.

Li Wanyan, standing next to her, looked somewhat helpless and took out a wet wipe to wipe the corner of her mouth.

"Huh~ Wanyan isn't treating me like Xiaoyao, is she?"

"Wipe it yourself."

"Oh dear... I still want you to help me wipe it!"

“Ah Wen’s swimsuit.” Mo Zhuyou blinked. “Let’s give Yin Yin the sexiest one, so she can show off her figure.”

"Pfft, cough cough! It's not a bikini, is it?!"

"...That kind of swimsuit is only worn when you're not swimming." Qiu Yi scratched his head awkwardly.

"Wow, there really is one!?"

The girls all turned to look at him.

"Idiot, what nonsense are you talking about!" Ye Wen blushed slightly. "Don't park the car here, park it in the garage. Okay, okay... stop fooling around, go change into your swimsuits."

……

(two)

This is a pristine beach that belongs to only a select few.

Sitting on this soft, fine sand, you can clearly see the curve of the sea's edge.

It is only at times like these that one feels a profound sense of the fact that the Earth is round.

It's called swimming, but it's really just playing in the shallow water.

Li Wanyan sat quietly by herself, watching the azure sea that met the sky, letting the tide gently wash over her feet.

She wore the most conservative swimsuit, just like her personality—introverted and quiet.

Actually, everyone else was wearing ordinary clothes, but Hua Yinyin was wearing Ye Wen's bikini swimsuit, which was so tight that it could barely contain her, and every time she ran, it caused a violent tremor.

Fortunately, there were no boys here, otherwise someone would probably have gotten a nosebleed on the spot.

Mo Xiaoxiao didn't seem to enjoy playing much either. She sat next to Li Wanyan, and her smile deepened as she watched the others having fun.

"Hey sis! Come play beach volleyball!"

"You guys have fun, I'm going to rest for a bit."

"Alright then, Wen, let's continue. When are you going to go on stage, Ms. Qianyu?"

"Right away, right away—"

This is a beach where only girls are.

Qiu Yi wasn't here; he went to the villa to cook alone.

"That's wonderful." Mo Xiao smiled and leaned slightly towards Li Wanyan. "Sometimes it's really hard to imagine waking up one day and not having my sister by my side."

Li Wanyan pursed her lips and nodded as if she agreed.

Mo Xiaoxiao chuckled and turned to look at Li Wanyan: "Are you lonely without Xiaoyao here?"

"..."
