Lin Yuan's cousin is Luo Shuyan, who is seven years younger than Lin Yuan and is the only daughter of his third uncle.
Before she was ten years old, she grew up with Lin Yuan. Later, his third uncle moved to another city due to work transfer, and he and Luo Shuyan separated. However, they were often in contact, and they called each other during the holidays.
Phone calls are also common.
He originally liked this cousin very much, but after she moved, her personality changed drastically. She became coquettish and willful, and felt very good about herself. Every time he saw her, Lin Yuan wished to stay away from her, and always teased Lin Yuan.
Although he was reluctant to come to him this time, his mother had spoken and he had to listen. The key was that there was still one month before she started school, and he couldn't imagine how he would survive this month.
Thinking of picking up the car from the airport tomorrow, I suddenly remembered that the car was still broken, so I quickly called the repair shop to have the car repaired first.
At night, Lin Yuan set the alarm clock for 7 a.m. before going to bed.
A night of silence.
Lin Yuan was woken up by the alarm clock early on Sunday morning. He got up, packed up, then went out and drove to the airport.
After driving for an hour and a half, he arrived at the airport. It was exactly 9 o'clock. He parked the car in the terminal parking lot and ran to the exit to pick up people.
Lin Yuan had not seen this girl since she entered high school. He didn't know if this girl had changed in the past three years, so he thought that no matter how she changed, it would be enough if she could recognize her.
After waiting for ten minutes, she looked at the time. Her flight should have arrived long ago and should have come out, but she looked at the people coming and going at the exit, but she didn't see her cousin.
"Oh, I don't know if she turned it on or not." Lin Yuan took out his mobile phone and called Luo Shuyan.
"Sorry, the phone you dialed has been turned off."
"This damn girl didn't turn on the phone after getting off the plane." Lin Yuan said angrily in his heart.
After waiting for a while, I saw that there was no one in the pick-up lane, and I thought: "Will this girl change her flight? Ask my mother!"
Just when Lin Yuan was about to call her mother to confirm, someone suddenly patted Lin Yuan on the back.
Lin Yuan was startled and almost dropped his phone to the ground. Just as he was about to turn around and get angry, he saw a girl wearing heavy makeup and hip-hop clothes standing behind him.
"Who is it?" Lin Yuan asked with wide eyes.
"Brother, you can't even recognize me? What are you looking at? I've been standing behind you looking at you for a long time."
"Shu Yan? No way. My third uncle took you to the United States again?"
"No, it's time to graduate from high school. I can finally let myself go. I really don't dare to dress up like this at home. This time I'm finally far away from my parents."
"You've gone too far. Where did the pure and lovely little fairy I knew before go? Give me back my little fairy cousin."
"Don't be poor. Let's go. I haven't even eaten breakfast. I'm hungry."
"You have no luggage?" Lin Yuan looked at her for a long time and didn't see anything she was carrying. She was traveling lightly, not even a backpack.
Luo Shuyan said: "No, what luggage do I need while you are here?"
"Then what do you do when you go to school?"
"I'm buying it. I'm too lazy to carry those big and small bags. I've been carrying the schoolbag for nine years. It's so heavy that my back is bent."
"Let me go, why are you here to go to school?"
"Okay, stop rambling, brother, take me to eat something delicious, I'm starving."
Lin Yuan took Luo Shuyan to the terminal and drove out of the airport.
In the car, Lin Yuan asked: "How much did your third uncle give you this time?"
Luo Shuyan looked in the rearview mirror, fiddled with her pigtails, and said, "Not much, more than 20,000."
"Hey, this third uncle can be assured, having so much money at such a young age."
"It's all in WeChat. I still have some savings. It's nearly 40,000 yuan in total. I think this month won't be enough."
"What? One month? What will you do when you go to school?"
"You can call me for tuition and living expenses when the time comes."
"Third uncle has been promoted again?"
"The branch general manager who was promoted half a year ago."
"No wonder."
Luo Shuyan stared at Lin Yuan and said, "Brother, I haven't seen you in a few years. Why have you aged so much and you are no longer handsome at all."
Lin Yuan said in a bad voice: "Do you think you are old if you can speak? Are you mature? Do you understand? Only when a man is mature can he be attractive."
"Okay, okay, you are mature. Do I have a sister-in-law?"
"Your brother and I now focus on my career."
"I asked you to tell me everything. If I can't find it, just say I can't find it. Putting career first are all excuses."
"There are children, no matter how big or small. Look at the way you are dressed now, it's really eye-catching."
"What do you know, old antique, I'm too lazy to tell you." After saying that, Luo Shuyan pulled her hat down and simply went to sleep.
Lin Yuan looked at Luo Shuyan, shook his head helplessly, and thought to himself: "How come this girl has become like this? She is not cute at all."
More than an hour later, Lin Yuan drove to the neighborhood of his home, stopped in front of a breakfast shop, and woke Luo Shuyan up.
"Are we here?" Luo Shuyan looked out the car window sleepily.
"Aren't you hungry? Go have breakfast."
"Brother, look at what time it is. It's almost noon. We still have breakfast. I won't eat it and will just have lunch. After that, I have to go back to catch up on my sleep. I'm so sleepy."
"How can you, girl, be so capable? Okay, what do you want to eat?"
"Let's go home and cook some noodles."
"Okay, if you're tired of eating, come here to experience life, right?"
"Let's go, I'll make do with it. I'm really sleepy now."
Lin Yuan drove to the underground garage of the community and then returned home with Luo Shuyan.
Luo Shuyan looked around and said with a look of disgust: "Brother, no way, why is your home so small?"
"It's incomparable to your villa. If I don't talk nonsense, I'll send you a hotel to stay."
"Bought with a loan?"
"You think it's easy for me, your brother? Wait, I'll cook noodles for you."
At this time, the doorbell rang.
Luo Shuyan was lying on the sofa and shouted: "Brother, someone is coming."
Lin Yuangang tied his apron and shouted: "Go and drive it, I guess it's for express delivery."
Luo Shuyan reluctantly walked to the door and opened the door. She saw a beautiful woman standing outside the door. She couldn't help but stare at Luo Shuyan.
"Hello, is Lin Yuan here?"
Luo Shuyan stuttered: "Yes, yes, yes, who are you?"
"I live upstairs."
"Oh, that's it. Sister, come in."
"Who are you?"
"I am Lin Yuan's cousin. My name is Luo Shuyan. Hello, sister."
Luo Shuyan let Zhang Xin in, then trotted all the way to the kitchen and whispered: "Brother, your beautiful neighbor upstairs is here."
"Who?" Lin Yuan asked without hearing clearly.
"Beautiful neighbor."
After hearing clearly, Lin Yuan quickly took off his apron and ran to the living room. Seeing Zhang Xin still standing at the door, he said, "Hey, why are you standing at the door? Come in."
Lin Yuan asked Zhang Xin to sit down in the living room, and Luo Shuyan sat next to Zhang Xin with a sneer on her face.
Lin Yuan glared at Luo Shuyan and said, "What are you doing? It's rude to sit next to you."
Zhang Xin smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay, I didn't know you had guests at home."
"She doesn't count as a guest, just pretend she doesn't exist." Lin Yuan said with a smile.
Luo Shuyan moved her buttocks and sat on the sofa next to her, saying, "Yes, beautiful sister, just pretend that I don't exist and you can talk about yourselves."
"Do you have a problem with me?" Lin Yuan asked.
Zhang Xin pondered for a long time and said: "That's it. I originally made an appointment with the staff of the consulate today to talk about studying in France, but I don't know what happened. I couldn't make an appointment for a long time, so I thought
Please do me a favor and drive me to the consulate. I don’t know if it’s convenient for you.”
"It's convenient, this is a big deal, let's go now." Lin Yuan stood up.
Luo Shuyan said with a smile: "Go ahead, go ahead, I can do whatever I want."
Zhang Xin also stood up and followed Lin Yuan to the door.
Luo Shuyan walked to the door and said to Zhang Xin with a smile: "Beautiful sister, you must come back after finishing your business. Let's have dinner together in the evening."
Zhang Xin was a little embarrassed and said: "Okay."
Luo Shuyan waved her hand and said: "Bye bye beautiful sister, see you in the evening."
Arriving at the underground garage, Zhang Xin got into the passenger seat and smiled at Lin Yuan: "Your cousin is so cheerful."
"Child, you don't know how to be born." Lin Yuan fastened his seat belt and started the car.
"When did you come?"
"This morning, I just got off the plane."
"Coming to travel?"
"No, I'm in school. I just got admitted to college. I came here a month in advance and said I wanted to go out and have fun."
"Oh, your cousin is so unique."
"Oh, don't mention it. She's just messing around all day long. She's neither human nor ghost. I really can't stand her behavior. I also want you to help me educate her. Don't let her behave like that. How can she be like that?
Girls are everywhere.”
"Haha, you, the elder brother, must be too lenient. You are called a maverick."
"What a maverick, girls have to be like you, beautiful and generous, to be feminine..." Halfway through, he knew he had made a mistake, so he hurriedly closed his mouth and glanced at Zhang Xin from the corner of his eye.
Zhang Xin's cheeks were slightly red and she smiled without saying a word.
Lin Yuan coughed slightly and asked: "The French Consulate, right? Is it the one on Zhongshan West Road?"
"Yes, that's the one."
"Okay, what time is the appointment?"
"One p.m."
"There's still an hour left. If there's no traffic jam, we should be able to make it in time."
