Cheer Up

Over the next few days, Ye Shuang noticed that Chen Qin seemed to be hiding something from him. Even when it was just the two of them, she would occasionally space out as if she were thinking about something. However, since she didn't want to talk about it, Ye Shuang had no intention of getting to the bottom of it.

Time flew by, and soon it was May. During the Labor Day holiday, Yinshan Academy gave the students a seven-day break. Although most academies only had a three-day holiday, Yinshan Academy seemed to have always had a rule of a seven-day Labor Day break.

"Brother."

"Brother."

"Brother?"

At the dining table, Ye Shuang seemed to sense someone calling him. He snapped out of his daze, only to find Tang Keke leaning over and waving her hand in front of his face, while Bai Yuyou was also looking at him with a piece of bread in her mouth.

"Brother, what are you thinking about?" Tang Keke asked curiously.

"Well... your Sister Chen Qin has been in a bad mood lately, so I was wondering if there was anything I could do to cheer her up," Ye Shuang had to admit.

"In a bad mood? Why?"

"I'm not too sure either." Ye Shuang shook his head. Even the system couldn't figure it out; after all, this thing might not necessarily be able to read a girl's mind.

"I think girls just have those days every month," Tang Keke said.

"True." Ye Shuang just smiled. Then, thinking of the holiday at Yinshan Academy, he asked, "What are your plans for this holiday?"

"Play games?"

"Eat?"

Seeing that Tang Keke and Bai Yuyou didn't seem to have any plans, Ye Shuang thought for a moment and suddenly asked, "Do you want to go out for a trip?"

"Where?" Tang Keke asked.

"Abroad or domestic, either works," Ye Shuang said. "Our country is vast and abundant, with many beautiful sceneries and historical sites. We should go out and take a look."

"Let's ask Sister Chen Qin," Bai Yuyou said at this moment. She hadn't seen Sister Chen Qin in a long time.

"Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Let's see if she's free and take a relaxing trip during this holiday," Ye Shuang agreed. After all, he didn't know exactly what Chen Qin was sad about, so it would be better to go out and relax.

After deciding to go out for a trip, Ye Shuang sent a message to Chen Qin.

...

Meanwhile, in a luxury hotel penthouse somewhere, Chen Qin was staring blankly at the medicine in front of her. However, she still obediently took the medicine and then lay down on the bed, trying to get some rest.

"Otherwise... should I go abroad and check out the medical institutions there?" Chen Qin muttered. "But foreign doctors might not necessarily be better than domestic ones."

"Is this a punishment for me? Do I not deserve to have Ye?"

"I clearly... haven't monopolized him either. Do I not even deserve this qualification?" Chen Qin looked at the ceiling, feeling as if her heart was being squeezed tightly. She stroked her lower abdomen.

"But, I was clearly the one who came first in everything."

Her body was incredibly exhausted. The things Chen Qin had once fantasized about seemed to have been mercilessly torn apart. She reached out and grabbed at the air in front of her, but caught nothing.

"Ding." Just then, her phone rang.

Chen Qin sat up and took a look, only to find a message from Ye Shuang.

Chen Qin: "..."

She was really afraid that Ye Shuang would find out about this. She was afraid of seeing the disappointment in Ye Shuang's eyes.

"Go out for a trip?" But seeing the message from Ye Shuang, Chen Qin breathed a sigh of relief. She tidied up her appearance a bit and finally made a video call to Ye Shuang.

The call connected quickly. Ye Shuang, sitting at the dining table, smiled and said, "How about it, shall we go out and relax?"

"Sure, where to?" Chen Qin smiled, though she looked a bit pale.

"Do you want to go abroad or travel domestically?" Ye Shuang asked.

"I haven't decided. Is it everyone together?" Chen Qin asked.

"Anything is fine, like last time?"

Pausing for a moment, Ye Shuang continued to ask, "Do you have time? Will the company be very busy?"

"It doesn't matter, and I haven't rested in a long time either." Chen Qin shook her head. "Then let's go out for a trip. You ask everyone."

"Okay, I got it."

After hanging up, Chen Qin silently looked at her phone. She sat on the bed hugging her calves in a daze, while the phone's wallpaper was a selfie of her and Ye Shuang.

It was a photo from junior high. The two of them were wearing school uniforms, taken on her birthday.

"We were clearly smiling so happily." Chen Qin muttered, and then her eyes became determined. "So many years have passed, what are you agonizing over? Ye isn't that kind of person."

"Slap, slap." Chen Qin patted her cheeks. "Take good care of my body, and then go squeeze Ye dry!"

"Goal: Give birth to a soccer team!"

Being able to cheer up quickly had always been Chen Qin's strong point.

...

"Your Sister Chen Qin is free." On Ye Shuang's side, he also told Bai Yuyou and Keke, "We just haven't decided where to go yet, but the holiday is quite long, so we can go anywhere."

"Just the few of us?" Keke asked curiously.

"Hmm... it wouldn't hurt to have more people. Should we ask Little Yu and the others?" Ye Shuang smiled. More people meant more fun. "We can ask Taozi and the others too."

"I'll ask."

Keke took out her phone and made a voice call to An Shiyu.

"Beep... beep..." After a while, the call connected. "Hello?"

"You're so slow to answer the phone. What are you doing?" Keke was curious.

"Busy," a voice came from the other end of the phone. "Hanging up now."

"Wait?!"

Tang Keke was dumbfounded. That was so perfunctory.

"Brother, I think An Shiyu has something against me," Tang Keke said.

Ye Shuang chuckled. "It's not your first day knowing An Shiyu. She just likes to joke around. She was probably really busy just now."

"Is that really so?" Tang Keke looked suspicious. "Brother, you call her."

"Me?"

"Mhm, mhm." Tang Keke nodded her head like a chicken pecking at rice.

Ye Shuang seeing Tang Keke urging him, had no choice but to make a voice call to An Shiyu. To convince Tang Keke, he even put it on speakerphone.

"Beep... beep..."

The call connected quickly.

"Darling~ What's up~" A voice came from the other end of the phone, instantly silencing Ye Shuang's side.

No, this isn't right, is it?

Listening to the voice on the other end, Ye Shuang suddenly spoke up, "Xiaoyi, stop playing around."

"Oh?"

Then, sounds of an apparent struggle came from the phone, accompanied by clattering noises and a girl's wail. Only then did An Shiyu speak up, panting slightly, "What's wrong?"

"Uh... well," Ye Shuang had to say, "Isn't it the Labor Day holiday? Do you want to go out for a trip?"

The other end of the phone fell silent.

"Just the two of us?"

"No, everyone."

"Oh." An Shiyu's tone grew a bit colder. "Everywhere is crowded during Labor Day. Where can we go?"

"True..."
