A Young Woman's Heart

Kasai Rinkai Park.

Compared to typical amusement parks, this place has fewer rides but more scenic views, and you can see many couples taking photos here.

Besides the giant Ferris wheel that you can see at a glance, there is also an aquarium here.

Of course, since we're already here, we can't miss riding the Ferris wheel.

Even when the Ferris wheel reaches its highest point, it can't truly overlook the entire city, but at least you can see the distant sea.

The weather was great today, with exceptionally high visibility, so much so that the photos Yu Shu took looked like scenes from a movie.

"How about we each say one sentence?"

"Good idea..."

What are people talking about?

"Nothing, nothing—" Hua Yinyin quickly changed the subject, looking down at the model-like city through the glass, "It's so tall—!"

"I...I can't bear to look..."

"Is Shu'er afraid of heights?"

"No, it's just... it's just too high..."

"It sounds so cool to have a concert on a Ferris wheel!" Hua Yinyin made a gesture of holding a microphone.

"How about Yinyin tries it next time?"

"If something goes wrong halfway through, then we can do the dolphin sound," Mo Zhuyou teased.

"From a high vantage point, it doesn't seem like there are that many tall buildings."

Yes, that's right.

Is this the highest point?

“Yes.” Mr. Xue patted the glass. “It seems we can’t open the window.”

"Of course not! What if you fall down..."

"There's only a ventilation fan."

"Wouldn't it shake a lot if we danced inside?"

"Eek! Sister Yinyin, no!"

"Just kidding...cough!"

Parks are never short of small shops, and in such a hot summer, ice cream is of course indispensable.

The different colored ice cream cones whetted everyone's appetite, and everyone couldn't resist buying one.

"Why did Yinyin buy a double ball? What if it falls down?"

"No, it's very sturdy."

"How about I take a bite for you?"

"Hey, if you want to try my taste, go ahead and try it. Here, have some."

"Hey, don't say things that are ambiguous, okay? Yu Shu is looking at us strangely!"

"I...I didn't...!" Yu Shu denied it outright.

"It was Xiaoyao who misunderstood, pfft."

"Damn it, I must have been corrupted by Yin Yin..." Mo Xueyao muttered, tilting her head and taking a big bite of ice cream in revenge, but she screamed "Waaah!" from the cold.

"Xiao Yao got her comeuppance," Wang Jiale chuckled, covering her mouth.

Mo Zhuyou tilted her head to look at the black ice cream she was eating: "Is Lele chocolate flavored?"

"Yes."

"Mine is matcha, would you like to switch?"

"Okay!"

"Smack!" Mr. Xue, who was licking his ice cream, was suddenly bumped into by a running child. The ice cream cone hit him directly in the face, and it was clear that he couldn't eat it anymore.

A young mother chased after him, hugged her child, and apologized sincerely. Mr. Xue wiped the ice cream off his face and waved his hand gently to indicate that he didn't mind.

The mother gratefully led her child away, continuing to grumble all the way.

Even if you don't understand the words, you can still tell from the tone of the voice that's scolding the child.

All mothers in the world are pretty much the same.

Mo Xueyao had never been to an aquarium; she had only ever seen them on television.

Behind the transparent glass is the seawater, where marine life is lazily swimming.

She loved the schools of clownfish, which were incredibly beautiful and colorful.

"Sister Yinyin, smile."

"Hey!" Hua Yinyin made a peace sign and took a picture in front of the dolphin.

I had just turned my head slightly when I saw the dolphin suddenly rush over and gently bump into the glass.

"Wow!" Marine creatures are all quite large, especially in the water, and such an aggressive posture can instill a sense of inexplicable fear.

Hua Yinyin was startled. Mo Xueyao went to Yu Shu's side and saw that she had also taken a picture of this.

"Oh, this is not bad—" she said with a sly smile, not forgetting to pull the others next to her over to see Hua Yinyin's terrified expression just now.

"Hey, hey, hey—you're targeting me!"

No, not at all.

When you have a camera, the focus of traveling seems to become taking all sorts of photos.

As a result, Yu Shu's camera memory was almost full, which forced her to reluctantly delete some files.

But the thought that the next few days would definitely not be enough made her look worried.

Fortunately, Mr. Xue told her that some newsstands nearby sold these digital camera memory cards, which put her at ease.

In fact, the camera Yu Shu was holding was exported from Japan, so it's normal that she could buy suitable accessories here.

The language barrier was the biggest obstacle preventing everyone from going their separate ways, but there was also fun in being together, especially when Hua Yinyin was around, she always made everyone laugh so hard they were doubled over.

"Wow... I'm so tired... I didn't expect to play all day." Hua Yinyin shook the dolphin plush keychain she bought from the aquarium. It felt nice to the touch, but she couldn't squeeze it because it was too hot. After walking a few steps outside the air-conditioned room, her body and hands were covered in sweat.

“Look over there…” Yu Shu took a picture first, then pointed to a small stage that was being set up by the roadside. It looked like a street stall, but much more elaborate.

"What's that? Is it a street performance?"

"It looks like it has a license?"

"Yeah, there were people maintaining order who went by just now, but they didn't say anything."

"Does Japan not have urban management officers?"

Everyone chattered amongst themselves, drawn by their curiosity.

People who play in bands are always more sensitive to music.

However, the woman singing at her stall appeared to be alone.

Her eyebrows and eyes drooped down, and she always looked a little unhappy. She was slender, about 1.68 meters tall, and wore relatively mature-style clothes. The most eye-catching thing was her pair of long boots.

However, Mo Xueyao was more concerned about whether her feet would smell bad if she wore this in the summer.

She's been wearing breathable, thin sneakers when she goes out these past few days.

When they saw Mo Xueyao and the others approaching, the woman who was squatting on the stage adjusting the sound system noticed them and waved as if they were old friends. A smile also appeared on Bitter Gourd's face.

When this person with a sour face smiles, they seem to appear gentler than most.

Wang Jiale curiously approached and asked a few questions in Japanese. The latter answered very humbly. Although she looked to be in her late twenties, her voice was still very sweet.

She even brought out small stools for everyone to sit down.

This is truly a novel experience.

Mr. Xue jokingly asked, "Is it okay if I don't pay?" The latter replied that he just wanted to show his support.

Of course, everyone still put some spare change in the straw hat next to the speaker.

When she took out her pipa, Hua Yinyin jumped up, her face full of excitement: "Wow, she can play the pipa?"

Wang Jiale quickly translated her words, and then translated the other person's words back: "She asked you, 'Can you play too?' She has been teaching herself the pipa for three years and really likes this instrument."

"Of course! I've been learning the pipa since I was little!"

"Uh... she asked you if you would like to go on stage and play the pipa if you don't mind?"

"Huh? Didn't she want to play it herself?"

"She said she would sing even better if she focused on singing."

"What?! Then leave it to me!" Hua Yinyin excitedly jumped onto the small stage, carefully took the pipa handed to her, and since she didn't know Japanese, she blinked and said, "!"

"Thanks!" She seemed very happy, and then asked a lot more questions, which of course left Hua Yinyin completely bewildered.

Fortunately, there were Wang Jiale and Mr. Xue. The two of them took turns translating, one of them translating what she said and the other translating what Hua Yinyin said.

A sheet of music was placed on the music stand in front of Hua Yinyin. She quickly glanced at the universally used staff notation, tried plucking it, and the latter exclaimed the same words several times with a look of surprise.

"She was saying how amazing you are, and she said it four or five times."
