Ever since Xinyao had returned, the atmosphere at home had become even warmer. Every day, I could see her happy face, and I could also see her and Duanmu Que fooling around. That night, I overheard Yu Xin's plan, but she didn't carry it out. Later, Duanmu Que told me that because of Xinyao's appearance, Yu Xin had temporarily postponed her plan with Director Li.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for Kurosawa's tenth anniversary celebration. During this time, everyone was busy preparing for it. Ever since I had returned to Duanmu's home, Duanmu Tachio had assigned me to take care of some matters in Kurosawa. Before the celebration of the tenth anniversary of the Black Nightmare Society, we left early and returned late. Most of our time was spent in meetings, discussing every day how to make the celebration a success. Our life of leaving early and returning late had exhausted us both mentally and physically.
The tenth anniversary celebration of Kurosawa was held in the Black Nightmare Guild Hall. That day, all the Kurosawa people were present. My parents also attended the celebration as guests. On that day, Yu Xin, Xinyao, Duanmu Que, and I arrived early to receive the guests. Since the celebration started at 5 in the afternoon, there weren't many people present. Xinyao and I strolled around the venue. In the crowd, I saw Han Hao's figure. I hadn't seen him for a long time, but he still looked the same as before. He hadn't changed at all.
Xinyao also saw Han Hao. She ran to Han Hao's side and greeted him. The two of them chatted and laughed. I stood in place and watched them. I didn't know what Xinyao said to him, but Han Hao looked in the direction of Xinyao's finger and saw me. I had no choice but to walk in front of them.
"Han Hao, long time no see." I waved at Han Hao.
"So you know each other. That's great. Then I don't need to introduce you." Xinyao wrapped her arm around Han Hao's and leaned on his shoulder.
Han Hao looked at me and smiled. "Xiao Li, long time no see." We looked at each other without saying a word. His gaze was still as gentle as ever.
"Han Hao -gege, do you need help with anything? Sister-in-law and I don't have anything to do, so we can go with you. "Xinyao looked at Han Hao and said sweetly.
Han Hao glanced at his watch, then turned to Xinyao. "Little Xinyao, I have a meeting right now, so I can't accompany you. I'll find you after the meeting, okay?" It had been a long time since I'd heard Han Hao's gentle voice. I didn't know why, but my heart suddenly trembled.
"Okay, then we'll wait for you to come back." Xinyao reluctantly let go of Han Hao's arm.
Han Hao walked to the door. As he walked past me, he glanced at me. My eyes met his, and an indescribable feeling welled up in my heart. Looking at Han Hao's back as he left, I could feel that he was very lonely.
At this moment, Xinyao wrapped her arm around mine and whispered into my ear, "Sister-in-law, what do you think of Han Hao?"
Hearing Xinyao's question, my face heated up. I didn't know how to answer, so I could only ask, "Why would you ask that?"
Xinyao looked at me and said shyly, "Sister-in-law, I'll tell you a secret. You can't tell anyone else."
"Okay, okay, I promise you." I smiled and looked at her.
"I like him." I looked at Xinyao, her face was brimming with happiness, "When I was young, I already liked him very much. He's different from my brother. Sometimes my brother's temper isn't good. Although he never throws a tantrum at me, but every time I see him scold his subordinates, I feel especially scared. But Han Hao is different, he's always very gentle, very gentle to everyone. Even if his subordinates do something wrong, he won't get angry. I like to look at him, even if I just silently accompany him, I still feel very happy."
So Xinyao liked Han Hao. Xinyao was right. Han Hao was a very gentle boy, and he was very compatible with a lively and cute girl like Xinyao. But I didn't know why, but when I heard Xinyao say that, I felt very uncomfortable.
"Sister-in-law? Sister-in-law, what are you thinking about? "Xinyao shook my arm and asked.
"I'm not thinking about anything. If you like him, just confess to him. If you don't say it, how will he know that you like him? Am I right? "I stroked Xinyao's hair and said to her.
Xinyao covered her face in embarrassment and said, "Actually, I've hinted to him before, but he's never answered me. I don't know what to do. Every time I leave home, I run away. I'm afraid that he won't answer me, and I'm also afraid that he'll reject me. Sister-in-law, what should I do? "
I looked at Xinyao and comforted her. "Be good, don't think too much. If you really like him, then you have to face the problem. Even if you're rejected, you've tried. You won't feel that it's a pity. Don't worry, your brother and I will support you."
"Okay, I know. When the celebration is over, I'll confess to him. Then I'll know that Sister-in-law is the best." Xinyao threw herself into my arms. Looking at her innocent face, the uncomfortable feeling in my heart slowly dissipated.
Xinyao and I felt that the hall was too boring, so we went to the door. Xinyao told me that there was a good Western restaurant near the hall. We slacked off and went out to eat. As expected, the restaurant's environment was good. We ordered some food and sat there to chat. Xinyao kept telling me about her and Han Hao's childhood. While we were happily chatting, we saw two people come in through the door. It was Yu Xin and another man. However, they didn't see us and went in the opposite direction.
I signaled Xinyao to be quiet. She also saw Yu Xin and the man. She curled her lips and said, "She's really a slut. Even her taste in men is so bad."
I furrowed my brows when I saw where they were sitting. The distance between us and them was a bit big. Although the Western restaurant was quiet, I couldn't hear what they were talking about.
Xinyao seemed to know what I wanted to do. She waved her hand and called the waiter over. "Hello, could you please change my seat? I want to sit over there. Thank you." Xinyao pointed at the seat behind Yu Xin and the man.
I gave Xinyao a thumbs up and pulled her to sit in the booth. It just so happened that the booth had a gauze curtain. After the meal was served, we put down the gauze curtain so that the people outside couldn't see us. While we were eating, we carefully listened to the conversation of the two people behind us.
"How's the preparation? Director Li. " When we heard Yu Xin's voice, we realized that the man was Director Li. Xinyao and I looked at each other and nodded. It seemed that Yu Xin and that man were going to talk about something very important.
