Chapter 293: Chapter 208: Xu Sanye’s Concerns_3

Han Yu was stunned for a moment and pretended to be surprised, asking, "Is Lin Xiaohui having a birthday?"

"You didn’t know?"

"She’s the same age as me, and it’s not a milestone birthday. Is there really a need to make such a big fuss and even go to Linghai Hotel?"

"Don’t change the subject, tell me whether you knew about this or not."

Rather than saying Captain Wang and Xiao Yu went to Yingchuan Port to help themselves, it’s better to say that they were helping her, staying almost daily by the Kuzi Port River at the Water Rescue Center guarding 001.

Xiao Yu can’t keep secrets, and these past few days Xiao Yu’s girlfriend has also been at the Rescue Center, making it impossible to keep this secret.

Han Yu didn’t dare to just blurt out anything, and could only anxiously say, "I know, Xiao Yu told me."

"If you’ve known it for so long, why didn’t you tell me?"

"She didn’t invite me, it has nothing to do with me, I didn’t really think much of it."

The junior brother’s performance proved to be quite good.

He said he would cut contact and did not contact her for many years, otherwise Lin Xiaohui wouldn’t have been unaware of his return.

Han Xiangning never thought of blaming him and after a moment of silence, she pouted and murmured, "I know you didn’t tell me because you were worried I’d be upset, but I’m not that petty."

Nothing you say would be right; Han Yu hurriedly replied, "Why talk about her, let’s talk about something else."

"What are you afraid of? I’m not a jealous pot," Han Xiangning looked up at him and smiled, "If we don’t mention her and never let you see her, others will really think I’m being jealous."

"What’s there to see."

"You are neighbors, you grew up playing together, now that she is back, we should invite her for a meal when we have time."

A woman’s mind is as deep as the sea.

Han Yu didn’t know exactly what his senior sister was thinking, so he didn’t dare to make any premature statements.

Han Xiangning smiled and continued, "I actually admire her quite a bit. I’ve heard that among the models who entered the finals with her some have become celebrities, some married wealthy bosses, some were employed by airlines, and some became professional models who frequently travel abroad. Yet she returned to the factory to continue working, not going after vanity or luxuries like others, which is really commendable."

Han Yu hesitated and then said softly, "I couldn’t understand before, but later I realized it might have to do with both of us being from boating families."

"What does growing up on a boat have to do with it."

"Even though people from the boat drift everywhere and consider the world their home, appearing fearless, we actually lack the most security."

"Does she think being a star or model is unstable?"

"Probably."

"And you, do you feel secure, are you settled now?"

"With you, I have a home on land, how could I feel insecure or unsettled."

Han Xiangning could hear the sincerity in his words, and cuddled closer in his arms, laughing, "Yu Zhen said Lin Xiaohui has found a boyfriend."

Han Yu replied nonchalantly, "Is that so."

Han Xiangning sighed, "I thought it was a Hong Kong boss but it turns out it wasn’t."

Han Yu curiously asked, "So, who is it, and where’s he from?"

Gazing at the twinkling navigation lights, Han Xiangning said softly, "A colleague from her company, seems his last name is Zhou, he’s from Zhehai, also from a rural background. He has an associate degree and studied international trade. Their company’s clothes are all for export, and her boyfriend is in charge of handling the export procedures."

"That’s good."

"It really is. Yu Zhen mentioned her boyfriend often comes to Linghai, so one day when both she and her boyfriend are around, we’ll invite them for a meal."

"She’s richer than us, we are nearly broke, do we need to invite them for dinner? Moreover, now she is a white-collar worker at a Hong Kong-funded enterprise, even celebrating her birthday at Linghai Hotel. Taking her to a small restaurant wouldn’t look good, and we can’t afford Linghai Hotel."

In the past, I was always worried about the junior brother getting too close to her, but now she has a boyfriend and has bought a house in East Sea, there’s really no need to worry.

Moreover, if I keep guarding strictly against them like before, they might think I’m being petty.

Han Xiangning made up her mind, thinking she should be generous, and said with a smile, "Back then in Qibao Town, she invited us for a meal, we should reciprocate. Where we invite doesn’t really matter, it’s the thought that counts."

What’s past is past.

Compared to Lin Xiaohui, whom he hadn’t contacted for many years, Han Yu was more worried about his master’s health, distractedly saying, "Okay, I’ll listen to you."
