A Young Woman's Heart

"What will we do in the future?"

"What."

"Youyou and I are sisters, but... will we really live together forever? Everyone has their own life and family."

“She wants to be with you forever,” Li Wanyan stated bluntly.

"That's just a child's dependence. Who knows if she'll meet a man she likes in the future?"

"will not."

"Even if it doesn't... but... what about the future, ten or twenty years from now? Will we just live like this?" Mo Xiaoxiao sighed heavily. "Sometimes I really feel lost about the future."

Li Wanyan was not surprised by this. Even though Mo Xiaoxiao usually acted like a parent to Mo Zhuyou, always gentle and calm, and always had arrangements and plans for life, she was still just a child, or even the same age as Mo Zhuyou.

—They are twins, the same age, and born on the same day, month, and year.

If you can't bear to part, then don't part.

"Maybe I'll be able to let go later. Oh well, there's no point in thinking about it so much." Mo Xiaoxiao crossed her legs. "What about you, Wanyan? Why aren't you playing with everyone?"

Li Wanyan did not answer, perhaps because she did not know how to answer.

Mo Xiaoxiao didn't ask any more questions, but just kept patting her back, saying to herself, "Sigh... my back and waist have been aching lately. I used to be able to get better after a good night's sleep..."

"It's not good that you always do your sister's laundry."

"Well, it's good to let her rest a bit more. Anyway, it doesn't make much difference whether you wash one person's clothes or two people's clothes."

Li Wanyan shook her head in silence.

Mo Xiao laughed and rolled over, lying down on the beach: "Wanyan, could you... give me a massage on my back? I can't quite reach it myself."

"No, not at all." Li Wanyan did not refuse and placed her hand on it directly.

"A little lower, mmm... right here, a little more pressure, mmm... haha... that's it..." Mo Xiao smiled with an expression of enjoyment, letting Li Wanyan's fist gently pound her tailbone. "Thank you, that feels much better."

You should also take good care of yourself.

"Well..."

"Otherwise, who will take care of Youyou?"

"Hmm." Mo Xiao smiled and looked up, her eyes curving like crescent moons, revealing two adorable dimples. "I didn't expect Wanyan to be so good at comforting people."

"It's not comforting, it's warning."

"Okay, okay, consider this a warning. Are you tired? Do you want me to give you a massage?"

"Need not."

"Don't be shy, come on, Wanyan, lie down." Mo Xiaoxiao propped herself up and sat up from the sand. "Let me massage you."

"I'm not that tired."

"Don't be shy, we're friends, right? Just think of it as joking around."

Li Wanyan sighed helplessly and slowly lay down on the sand.

"Hey, my sister and the class monitor are...touching each other..."

"Pfft! What?" Hua Yinyin almost choked on her own saliva. She narrowly dodged the beach volleyball thrown by the other side and couldn't help but look in the direction Mo Zhuyou was looking.

"We were just giving each other a massage..." Wang Jiale picked up the ball from the ground and tossed it back lightly.

"That's great!" Hua Yinyin squinted her eyes. "Girls should really do this kind of thing! Let's do it too!"

"Cha Li—Yin Yin said she wants to give you a massage~!"

"Hey! Hey!"

"Okay!" Cha Li readily agreed.

"Hey, hey, don't talk nonsense!"

"Yinyin seems a little afraid of Chali, huh?" Wang Jiale teased with a smile.

Mo Zhuyou chuckled softly: "Because Cha Li really would do that."

"All bark and no bite, Yin Yin."

"What? I'm just not interested in Cha Li. But I'd be happy to have Le Le."

"Really? Then come on over."

"Hey!" Hua Yinyin said, somewhat embarrassed and angry.

Wang Jiale and Mo Zhuyou couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.

As they spent more time together, they came to understand Hua Yinyin better and stopped letting her 'tease' others all the time.

"Hey—!" Qiu Yi stood not far from the villa entrance, waving vigorously and shouting to the girls on the beach. However, the distance was still quite far, so his voice sounded a little muffled. "Dinner—it's ready—!"

"Let's eat!" Hua Yinyin put down the beach volleyball she was about to throw. "I'm starving, I haven't had breakfast yet."

"What are we eating today?"

"There should be seafood or something," Ye Wen said, not entirely sure. She waved to the others, "Whatever we buy, we'll make it. We'll find out when we get there. Okay, everyone, let's go get lunch!"

"Hey, it's raining! Run, run!"

"This rain came just in time, it's falling right when we're about to eat..."

……

(Fives)

It was already evening when we returned from the beach.

The girls still squeezed into Qiu Yi's old Suzuki sedan.

Although I had the experience from the trip there, the return journey was still somewhat agonizing.

"Ugh..." Hua Yinyin gagged a few times as she got out of the car. "I will never ride in A Qiu's car again!"

"Cough...it was a bit too crowded..."

"That's not it. The main problem is that it keeps stalling. It's terrifying, and it keeps jerking around. It's so annoying."

"That's right, that's right, Ah Qiu's car needs to be replaced. My dad's old van never stalled so easily."

"Haha... It stalled, it's probably because a part is not working properly, just go and replace it."

"Wanyan~!" Everyone complained as they got out of the car, while on the other side of the mountain, Mo Xueyao and Le Tingfeng walked down one after the other.

Li Wanyan glanced at her little leather shoes covered in mud and sighed softly, "Did you go to the mountain to play?"

"Yeah, we came down after the rain stopped. Hey, did you guys have fun at the beach?"

"It's a good thing you didn't go, Xiao Yaoyao! A Qiu said that if you had come, you would have had to sit in the trunk!" Hua Yinyin teased loudly. "You're very lucky today!"

"Cough cough cough cough—!!!" Qiu Yi suddenly started coughing violently.

Chapter 278 The Return Journey

(One)

Fine raindrops veiled the car windows, making the landscape of mountains and rivers resemble a traditional Chinese ink painting.

May 31st is the day to return.

The students finally left the mountain and were about to return to the city they came from.

They brought the excitement with them, and then took it away, leaving only a dormitory building in the mountains, standing alone in the rain.

The bus rounded a bend, and then it was completely out of sight.

Mo Xueyao took out the game console to play for a while, but as soon as she turned it on, it automatically turned off like a TV with a broken plug.

Clearly, the battery has run out of power.

Forget about using the tape drive, because those last two batteries were taken from it.

Forget about reading on the bus; the bumpy ride will definitely strain your eyes.

Mo Xueyao could only lean back in her chair, resting her forehead against the window, lazily watching the rain outside.

Li Wanyan rested her head on her shoulder and fell asleep as soon as she got in the car.

"Wan... Ah, it's nothing. I just wanted you to lean on my lap. Leaning on my shoulder is a bit tiring..."

"Ah."

Li Wanyan nodded gently, seemingly so sleepy that she couldn't even keep her eyes open. She lay her upper body on Mo Xueyao's lap and drifted off to sleep again.

I probably didn't sleep well last night.

After all, the school held a party last night, and everyone stayed up very late. Even those who went back to their dorms early to sleep probably couldn't sleep because of the noise.

So the car was unusually quiet today, without any noisy or disruptive sounds, except for a few students whispering in hushed tones.

Mo Xueyao glanced back, wanting to see how many people were still conscious.

The two sisters, Mo Zhuyou and Mo Xiaoxiao, who were sitting in the back, were fast asleep, their heads touching, and they looked exceptionally sweet.

Le Tingfeng was talking to Zhou Yong about games, but Zhou Yong looked very sleepy and kept yawning.

The others were also half asleep and half awake from the jolts.

She sat up straight again and patted Hua Yinyin's head in front of her.

"Yinyin?"

"Hmm? What's wrong, Yaoyao?" She turned her head slightly, peeking out one eye from the gap in the back seat armrest.
