You are my wife, don't doubt it!

When enemies meet, their eyes turn red. Xiao Yao stepped forward and shouted with a stern face, "Father Li!"

"Oh, Xiao Xiao!" Father Li actually remembered Xiao Yao's last name and walked up to him and shook hands with him enthusiastically: "You are here too, very good, very good."

"Hello, Father Li." Yu Luying called politely and pulled Xiao Yao from behind.

"Father Li, may I have a moment with you? I have something to ask you." Xiao Yao said.

"Okay, okay, okay," Father Li smiled and nodded repeatedly, "But I'm a little busy now, so in the afternoon--"

"What are you asking?" Yu Luying stamped her feet anxiously: "Father Li, please ignore him. Let's go put the luggage away first."

Having said that, he forcibly dragged Xiao Yao away.

"What are you doing? Can you please not be so impulsive?" Yu Luying complained to Xiao Yao as she walked.

Hairtail chased after them, confused: "What's going on, you two? Brother Bo is looking for your IDs and arranging rooms for you two - Brother Yao, how about we stay in the same room?"

Yu Luying didn't answer him, but looked strangely, staring straight behind Conger Fish.

When Hairtail saw her looking at him, he felt a chill down his spine and turned away quickly.

There were two old men standing behind him. One looked to be in his eighties or nineties, wearing a Zhongshan suit, with wrinkles all over his face, hunched back, leaning on a cane, and a white goatee, but he looked in good spirits. The other one was probably in his fifties, wearing a suit and tie, with a rather sturdy build, and short gray hair. He was supporting the old man mentioned earlier.

"Big Sheep, don't you bark when you see people?" The man in his fifties looked very stern, his eyes fixed on Yu Luying.

"Grandpa, uncle...hello." Yu Luying bit her lip and lowered her head.

Xiao Yao could sense... fear in her? Fear? Uncertainty? He couldn't tell.

Subconsciously, he protected Yu Luying behind him.

"Who is he?" The man called uncle turned his gaze to Xiao Yao again.

"Who is he?" The man called uncle turned his gaze to Xiao Yao again.

Xiao Yao opened his mouth but no sound came out. He opened his mouth again but still no sound came out.

He couldn't decide for a moment which answer, "I'm her boyfriend" or "We are her classmates," was more suitable for the current situation, so he simply let Yu Luying answer it herself.

Having said that, calling a person "Grandpa" and then calling that person's son "Uncle", this feeling of incongruity is unavoidable!

Yu Luying's response to this question was: "Where's Xiaoyang? Why didn't he come with you?"

"Xiaoyang is not feeling well," said the man called uncle, "You, don't care about your sister at all."

"Ah? What's wrong with her? Is it serious?" Yu Luying pretended to be concerned and asked, "Shall I go see her?"

The uncle slowed down his tone and said, "That's not necessary. Let's go after the summer camp is over. You should be well by then."

The few of them stood there and exchanged a few words about family matters, and then the two old men left.

The "grandfather" didn't say a word to Yu Luying from beginning to end, and only said "Paul, let's go."

As they left, Xiao Yao could clearly feel that Yu Luying relaxed a little.

"Lamb?" Xiao Yao asked in a low voice, somewhat puzzled.

"Yu Yage, you have seen her." Yu Luying said.

"?" Xiao Yao thought for a long time before he had a vague impression: "Fortunately she didn't come."

"What's the matter?" asked Hairtail.

"Yu Ya Ge seems to know Shen... Qing Wei," Xiao Yao lowered his voice and looked around: "If she comes too, I'm afraid the news will leak out."

“Oh.” said Hairtail.

Although it was hard to describe his relationship with his family as "good", Xiao Yao still sensed Yu Luying's embarrassment in front of her "grandfather" and "uncle". He couldn't ask in front of Daiyu, so he could only squeeze Yu Luying's hand.

Next, they went to the assigned rooms to put their luggage. Xiao Yao was assigned to room 1503, and was not able to share a room with Daiyu. His roommate was a young man whom he had never seen before. He looked like a college student and was quite handsome, but he didn't seem to be much taller than Shen Jie.

"My name is Gao Sijun, I'm from the maritime department. Please take care of me." The short roommate took the initiative to extend his right hand to Xiao Yao.

"Xiao Yao, St. Francis Xavier Middle School." Xiao Yao held the other's hand tightly.

"Ah, St. Francis," Gao Sijun said, "Isn't that right across from the Sacred Heart Church of Father Yu...Yu?"

"Yes." Xiao Yao walked to the window and looked down at the beach and the sea from the height of the 15th floor. He felt refreshed for a moment: "Great!"

"Great?" Gao Sijun was confused for a moment.

"Lao Gao, come over and take a look." Xiao Yao called him.

At the same time, in room 605, Shen Jie was taking off her suit and hanging it on the coat rack.

"Qingwei, we are so destined to be together." Lucia said happily, "We were actually assigned to the same place."

"Yes, I'm very happy too." Shen Jie replied with a smile. She stood beside the bed inside, lifted up her gray pleated skirt, and inserted her hands between the edge of her pantyhose and her flesh-colored panties, ready to take off her pantyhose.

The cell phone suddenly rang. Shen Jie took her hands out of her socks and checked the new messages.

"Sister Jie, are you here? I just got up."

"Sister Meiyu, we just arrived too and are going downstairs to eat." Shen Jie replied seriously, "You really should have come with us. The sea view here is beautiful and the accommodation is very clean."

"Oh, I can't afford this money." Meiyu said.

"for free."

"That would have delayed my earning time these days. Besides, I'm no longer a student. How can I feel comfortable attending a summer camp?"

The speaker may not have meant it, but the listener took it to heart. Shen Jie felt a slight pain in her heart.

"Qingwei, come to the bowl quickly." Lucia called.

"Ah?" Shen Jie raised her head and responded.

"Notify us to gather in the dining room," Lucia said.

"Oh, good."

"Qingwei, don't wear leather shoes. We are going to the beach this afternoon. I bought a few pairs of Crocs. Do you think they fit your feet?"

It's impossible for them to fit my feet. How can a size 34 foot fit? But since they are Crocs, it doesn't matter: "Thank you, Sister Qiu."

"Let's go." Lucia took Shen Jie's hand and interlocked their fingers.

……

Xiao Yao and Gao Sijun rushed to the large dining hall on the first floor hungry. Not only was there no food to be found, but even the original dining tables had been taken away. Only rows of chairs were left, just like in a classroom - it turned out that they were going to hold mass first.

Really, can't we eat first and then do it... Oh, by the way, I learned in catechism that there is a setting called "eucharistic fast". (Note: Eucharistic fast means not eating one hour before receiving the Eucharist)

But I’m so hungry… I didn’t have breakfast today.

Xiao Yao and Gao Sijun got along quite well, because the latter was not only a football fan but also a "Bloodline II" player. Unfortunately, he and Xiao Yao were not on the same server.

"Today's afternoon is basically free time, we can go to the beach." Gao Sijun said.

"That would be great." Xiao Yao said, "But I might have to go with the people from our school first."

"It's okay. Some of us from the maritime department might want to get together as well," Gao Sijun said. "Would you like to watch a game together tonight, or go to an Internet cafe to play?"

"Let's see..." Xiao Yao said, "Maybe... there's an appointment."

"Little girl?" Gao Sijun asked.

"...Yeah." Xiao Yao nodded.

"It's really enviable." Gao Sijun said sincerely.

"You are so handsome, aren't you?" Xiao Yao asked curiously.

"With my height, where can I find one?" Gao Sijun waved his hand and said, "I can become a priest in the future."

"Don't be so discouraged," Xiao Yao advised, "There are still many opportunities. You came out this time, just now in the car, and now here, didn't you see anyone you like?"

"Yes, there is," Gao Sijun said shyly, "The girl sitting alone in the back row of our bus, I have never seen her before. She is very cute. She always sits there alone, wearing headphones and reading a book, very quietly. She seems to be quite short..."

"Go get a ride, go get QQ." Xiao Yao urged, "Which one? Show me."

Gao Sijun searched the dining room, then secretly pointed to a girl in a shirt in front of him on the right to Xiao Yao.

The girl was wearing a little blue hat, a white short-sleeved shirt, a gray pleated skirt, flesh-colored tights, and blue Crocs.

Because the back of the Crocs were not sealed, Xiao Yao could see the round heels wrapped in the stockings, which looked quite nice.

"I don't know if she has a boyfriend?" Gao Sijun seemed to be talking to himself.

"Well, as far as I know, there is." Xiao Yao was silent for a moment and told Gao Sijun.

"Oh, I knew it, such a beautiful girl." Gao Sijun said with a bit of regret: "By the way, do you know her?"

"Well, he's from our school, I guess." Xiao Yao said vaguely.

"Why didn't her boyfriend come?" Gao Sijun said.

"Maybe it's because her boyfriend is not a church member yet," Xiao Yao said.

"Oh." Gao Sijun said.

"Don't lose heart, buddy." Xiao Yao held Gao Sijun's shoulder and said, "I'll keep an eye out for you later and introduce someone to you. Do you see the short dark-skinned guy on the right, the one wearing glasses? His name is Daiyu, he's my brother, and I introduced him to his girlfriend."

"Haha." Gao Sijun laughed awkwardly, "It's okay, I don't have to worry so much."

As he was speaking, Xiao Yao saw Zhao Xiaomei walking straight in from the front door.

It was indeed Zhao Xiaomei, there was no doubt about it!

She seemed not to have seen Xiao Yao - or perhaps she really didn't see him. She lowered her head and found a seat at the edge and sat down.

Well, to be honest, Xiao Yao didn't feel so good about himself that he thought Zhao Xiaomei came to harass him again.

Although the Zhao Xiaomei that Xiao Yao knew did not have any trace of a church member, Xiao Yao did remember that he had seen her in the Sacred Heart Church.

...Never mind her.

This dining room seems to be used for weddings, and there is a ready-made table.

It was the first time for Xiao Yao to attend a mass held outside a church. It was also the first time for him to see a mass presided over by seven or eight priests at the same time. It was an eye-opener.

After the mass, dinner was finally served. The waiters of the Saint-Ai Hotel brought in the dining tables and rearranged them. Dozens of people sat at the tables, and the cold dishes were served first.

"Ah~~!" Xiao Yao took a sip of 82 iced Sprite and burped happily.

"Watch your tone." Yu Luying was sitting on his left, covering her nose and burping secretly. Then she frowned and pulled Xiao Yao, reminding him in a low voice.

When Gao Sijun saw that Xiao Yao's girlfriend was actually Bo Ge's niece, he was slightly shocked and in awe, but he didn't say anything.

The food was really good and not at all mediocre. Xiao Yao - no, everyone enjoyed the meal very much.

There are actually hairy crabs in this season - Xiao Yao later learned that this is called "stir-fried crabs".

After the four dishes of fried shrimp, salt and pepper mantis shrimp, scrambled eggs with whitebait, and seafood noodle dumplings, there was a "dry-fried hairtail". When Xiao Yao saw this dish, he turned his head and smiled knowingly at the hairtail. However, the boy did not look at him and was busy with the female college students, Huo Pang, who sat at the same table with him.

"It's all seafood." Xiao Yao couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the "Signature Seafood Big Names", "Steamed Scallops with Vermicelli and Garlic", "Steamed East China Sea Yellow Croaker", and "Razor Clams with Scallion Oil" that were served later.

At the same time, for some unknown reason, the boy began to feel a dull pain at the base of his right big toe.

But, is there no meat?

Just when I thought of this, the main dishes such as "Fisherman's Braised Pork", "Braised Dongqi Lamb" and "Traditional Braised Goose" were served on the table steaming hot.

After ten days of summer camp, Yu Luying should be able to gain some weight, right? Then will he and Shen Jie become fat as balls? Xiao Yao wondered.

Unfortunately, there are no alcoholic drinks here, so I can only drink Orange Juice.

The priests and the adults from the summer camp logistics team sat at two tables. They had wine. As they drank, Yu Bo's face was flushed, perhaps he was half drunk.

After having enough drinks and meals, Xiao Yao thought he could finally go into business, but he didn't expect that there would be a speech at the opening ceremony of the summer camp.

The person who gave the speech was the man I had met before, Yu Luying's "grandfather".

Out of gratitude for the provider of the delicious meal, Xiao Yao sat up straight and listened attentively, but Yu Luying lowered her head and played with her fingers.

The content of the speech... generally speaking, the style is similar to the principal's new semester speech at the beginning of the school year.

"As everyone knows, the theme of our summer camp is 'May it be done to me according to your word!'" said Mr. Yu, holding a grid paper in his hand. "This sentence comes from Luke 1:38. When faced with God's plan and invitation, Our Lady bravely and generously responded with 'yes'. This answer demonstrates the understanding of 'calling': transcending oneself and serving others. The meaning of our lives can only be found in serving God and our neighbors.

"Bala, bala, bala...

“Guide young people to face themselves bravely and seek God’s will in their life plans; let young people experience God and have dialogues with God in activities and games, in learning and prayer, in groups and in the Church;
