You Two, Take Notes

“Wow, it’s gorgeous! Brother Su Yang, where are you right now?” Su Qingci asked from the middle of the crowd.

“I’m in Switzerland.” Su Yang waved back.

“You went to Switzerland? But we applied to enter France,” Lu Yun said.

“It’s fine. You applied for a Schengen visa. Even though it was issued by France, you can still enter Switzerland directly.”

“Really? That’s great.”

Su Yang deliberately asked, “Weren’t you all saying you weren’t going to make a special trip to find me?”

“Well, about that… where in Switzerland are you?” Zhuang Mengli changed the subject.

Su Yang stood up, turned the camera around, and filmed the surrounding dreamlike hills before smiling and saying, “Grindelwald.”

“Wow, this place is incredible!”

“Beautiful, right?”

“Old Su, are you alone?” Meng Wenzhou asked.

Su Yang turned the camera back toward himself and shook his head. “No, I’m with a few friends.”

“Friends? From Europe?”

“Not exactly. Two are from island countries, and one is from Korea.”

“Don’t ask where they’re from. That’s not important. What matters is whether they’re men or women.” Zhuang Mengli winked mischievously.

Hearing that, Su Yang thought, You really do talk too much.

“Women.” He couldn’t be bothered to lie. No one would believe him if he said they were men anyway, and sooner or later they were bound to meet them when they came looking for him.

“I knew it! Humph. Stay right where you are and don’t go anywhere!”

“Why?”

“We’re coming to find you, of course! Otherwise, if you run off somewhere else after we arrive, who knows when we’ll get to see you?”

“Fine, fine. This place is so beautiful that I don’t feel like going anywhere either.”

“Alright, that’s settled. Is there anything else you want to say?” Zhuang Mengli asked.

Su Yang glanced at Han So-yeon on the video and asked, “So-yeon is there too? Weren’t you in Shanghai?”

Han So-yeon smiled and pointed at Liu Bo and Jin Xiangmei. “Look at those two.”

The camera shifted toward Liu Bo and Jin Xiangmei. The two were acting all lovey-dovey, and Su Yang immediately grinned.

“Well, well, are you two officially together now?”

“Ah, Brother Yang, keep it down, keep it down.” Liu Bo lowered his head shyly and waved his hands.

“Hahaha, you’re actually getting shy now? Not bad, not bad. Jiang Xiaotang is there too.”

Zhuang Mengli turned the camera toward Jiang Xiaotang. Meng Wenzhou suddenly stuck his head into the frame and waved.

“Hello! Get it now?”

Su Yang grinned. “Hahaha, I get it, I get it. Nice work, you guys. I’ve only been gone for a few days, and you’ve already moved pretty fast.”

“Enough nonsense. Do you want to say a few words to your girlfriend, Pan Pan?” Zhuang Mengli turned the camera back toward herself and asked.

“No need. If I have anything to say to her, I’ll say it to her privately. It’s not convenient with such a large crowd watching.” Su Yang smiled.

“Whatever. Then do you want to say something to your other girlfriends?” As she spoke, Zhuang Mengli aimed the camera toward Lu Yun, Su Qingci, and the others.

“Hey, I told you not to say things like that.”

“Fine, then what about me? Your fiancée.”

“Damn… you…”

Su Yang was stunned. He never expected Zhuang Mengli to say something like that in front of everyone.

“Come on, they already know.”

“What?”

“That’s enough. Stop teasing him. Hang up.” Pan Ning, who had remained silent until then, called out.

“Alright, alright. We’ll talk more when we get there. Bye-bye.”

Before Su Yang could respond, the video call ended.

“Huh? She just hung up like that? So they all know now? Ah, whatever. They know, so they know.” Su Yang couldn’t be bothered to dwell on it and lay back down on the grass.

More than half an hour later, three people approached from not far below the hillside.

Su Yang looked up, stood, and waved as he shouted, “You’re back!”

“We’re here! Come give us a hand.”

Each of the three was carrying two large bags. Su Yang quickly jogged over to them.

“What did you buy? Why are there so many bags?”

“Fruit, snacks, drinks, milk, coffee beans, a few pieces of clothing, and some miscellaneous vegetables.”

“Vegetables? Why did you buy vegetables?” Su Yang asked as he took the bags from Li Yuanying.

“To eat!”

“Don’t we already have food?”

“We were already out shopping, so we figured we might as well buy a little of everything. I’ve completely fallen in love with this place. From now on, I’m not going anywhere. I’m staying here.”

“Me too!” Qingxia chimed in. The way she looked at Su Yang now was that of a shy young girl.

“If you two aren’t leaving, then I’m not leaving either,” Yoshie said with a smile.

“Fine, fine, fine. Then we’ll stay here for a few more days. Come on, let’s go back inside first.”

“Okay.”

The four of them carried the bags back into the house. Su Yang put the vegetables in the kitchen, while Yoshie took out the snacks, drinks, and other items and arranged them on the coffee table.

“Let’s leave these here so they’re easy to get to. But remember to clean up after you finish eating.” Yoshie smiled at Li Yuanying and Qingxia.

“Got it.”

“Are you hungry?” Su Yang asked after he finished putting everything away and came out of the kitchen.

“Not yet. We ate in town. Oh, no!” Li Yuanying suddenly stopped and looked at Su Yang.

“What’s wrong?”

“We were so focused on eating that we forgot to bring anything back for you.”

Su Yang smiled. “It’s fine. I’m not hungry.”

“I bought something for Su-san.” Yoshie turned and walked toward the dining room. She took out some Swiss rösti and a slice of carrot cake from a bag on the dining table.

Li Yuanying and Qingxia stared at her in surprise.

“Sis Mie, when did you buy those? How come we didn’t see you?”

“When you two went to buy the snacks.” Yoshie carried the food over to Su Yang.

“Hahaha, you really know how to take care of someone, Yoshie. You two should learn from her.” Su Yang took the food, sat down on the sofa, and began eating.

“Weren’t you just saying you weren’t hungry?” Li Yuanying ran over and sat beside him.

“I’m not hungry, but the food’s already been bought. We can’t let it go to waste, can we? No matter how much money you have, you shouldn’t waste food. Got it?” Su Yang winked at Li Yuanying, then lowered his head and opened the box of rösti.

“Huh?” Li Yuanying sat beside him, baring her teeth in frustration.

After taking a couple of bites, Su Yang tilted his head and said, “Are you busy right now?”

“No. Why? What do you want?”

“If you’re free, could you make me a cup of coffee? My mouth feels a little dry.”

“You’re ordering me around now?”

“How could that be ordering you around? I’m asking nicely.” Su Yang smiled.

“I’ll make it,” Yoshie said with a smile. “What kind of coffee would you like, Su-san?”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. See? Yoshie is the gentle and capable one. I’ll have the simplest kind—a black coffee.”

“Okay~ But it looks like we don’t have any ice.”

“Then leave it out.”

“Okay. What would you two like?” Yoshie asked Li Yuanying and Qingxia.

“I’d like a latte,” Li Yuanying said with a smile.

“Me too. Thanks, Sis Mie.” Qingxia hugged Yoshie, then ran over with a beaming smile and sat down on Su Yang’s other side.
