Fang Yu arrived early, and there were plenty of empty seats, so she found a corner seat and sat down.

After turning on the computer, I habitually logged into oIcq first, but no friends were online. However, there were still quite a few messages from Thor asking how she was doing and why she hadn't seen her online in a while.

Fang Yu read it once, but did not reply. She opened the website and typed "kindergarten Children's Day program" into the search box.

After the page redirected, there weren't many results; most were simple nursery rhyme lyrics and stories. She then changed a few keywords: "children's dance" and "Children's Day performance".

Fang Yu took out paper and pen, reading and taking notes as she went. It was better to refer to more information than to just guess. She flipped through a few more pages and found a program suitable for middle-grade children, which she also wrote down.

A knock sounded on the door, and Fang Dongqiang came online. This time, he actually took the initiative to send a message to Fang Yu: "Fang Yu, I haven't seen you online in a while. Are you busy with work?"

Fang Yu immediately replied, "Yeah, I haven't been to the internet cafe lately. I'm busy with the June 1st kindergarten performance, so I came here today to find out what the program is for June 1st."

Okay, you go ahead and get busy. Bye!

Fang Yu stared at the screen, bit her lip, and typed "886" as well.

After a while, Thor also came online. "Fish Baby, it's been a long time since I've seen you online. Where are you online today?"

"A relatively quiet internet cafe." Fang Yu didn't reply directly, but continued searching for web pages while occasionally replying with a few words about Thor.

Thor said he was offline. Fang Yu said goodbye to him and continued browsing the web. During this time, Tang Zebin paged him several times, but Fang Yu didn't return the calls.

Later that night, more and more people came to the internet cafe, and the sound of keyboards clicking filled the air. Fang Yu, however, was completely oblivious, engrossed in copying.

Thor is online again. He didn't send a message to Fang Yu, and Fang Yu didn't send one to him either. They were still busy looking for content on their own.

By the time she finished organizing the information she found, it was almost closing time at Yu Jihong's shop, and she had to go home.

Fang Yu turned off the computer and walked out of the internet cafe. The evening breeze was a bit cool on her face, and her worries dissipated a lot. Although the program she found wasn't particularly exciting, at least she had a direction.

Fang Yu slung the bag containing her laptop over her shoulder, her fingers unconsciously gesturing in the air. Her mind was filled with the dance moves she had just seen on the computer. She could teach this hand gesture to the little girl in the front row, and that spinning motion would be adorable with a children's song.

She was so engrossed in brainstorming ideas for the Children's Day program that she didn't even notice the figure behind her.

"Baby fish!"

"Ah!" The sudden shout startled Fang Yu.

She whirled around, her wrist motion frozen in mid-air, her face instantly turning bright red. How could she have forgotten she was still on the street, mimicking dance moves while walking? How embarrassing!

Fang Yu quickly withdrew her hand.

Thor's smile deepened as he looked at her embarrassed expression. "Did I scare you? You were so engrossed in what you were doing."

"No, no." Fang Yu quickly lowered her head, clutching the strap of her bag tightly. "I was just thinking about the Children's Day program. What are you doing here?"

"I was at another internet cafe, but when I saw you online, I came here to check. I saw you were looking for something and taking notes, so I didn't disturb you."

"oh!"

You looked so cute just now!

"Just now," Fang Yu thought about how she had walked and danced like that, with people following and watching, "wasn't that silly?"

"No, no, no, not silly, very cute, I like it very much."

Fang Yu opened her eyes and unconsciously tugged at the strap of her bag.

“I’ll take you home,” Thor suggested.

"No need, my house is just ahead, very close," Fang Yu quickly waved her hand.

The two walked side by side for a few steps, then the atmosphere became heavy again. "Go back, it's all main street with streetlights, it'll be fine," Fang Yu said to Thor.

Thor looked at her flushed profile and said, "Baby Fish, I've liked you for a long time."

Fang Yu suddenly stopped and looked up at him in surprise. What's going on today? Just yesterday, her mother asked her if any boys were pursuing her, and now two boys have confessed their feelings to her.

"I know this is too abrupt," Thor scratched his head and explained nervously, "but you don't go online often, and I'm always afraid I won't be able to find you. Seeing you today, I just couldn't resist."

Fang Yu's mind was in turmoil. She looked at the somewhat awkward boy in front of her, opened her mouth as if to say something, but didn't know what to say.

A gentle evening breeze ruffled the stray hairs on Fang Yu's forehead. Seeing her hesitation, Thor said, "It's alright, you don't need to answer me now. I just want you to know how I feel."

"Okay, I understand," Fang Yu said softly. "Go do what you need to do. Don't let it affect your work. My mom is coming back, and she'll be taking this route too."

"Okay." Thor stepped in front of Fang Yu again. "Actually, sometimes I go online just to see if you're here."

Fang Yu stepped back a little, avoiding his gaze, and said, "I'm going home."

"Okay, you can go home now. Can I have your contact information?"

Looking at Thor's tense yet serious eyes, Fang Yu asked, "Should I call you Thor or Lei Feng?"

Thor paused for a moment, then chuckled. Fang Yu was also amused by her own words, and the awkwardness from before dissipated considerably.

"You have a beautiful smile." Thor looked at her smiling face with gentle eyes. "Call me whatever you like."

"Hmm..." It felt a little awkward to call someone you got along with online "Lei Feng" or "Thor" in real life. Fang Yu asked, but Fang Yu still didn't call them anything. "I'm a little surprised you said that all of a sudden. I've been quite busy lately. Let's leave it at that for now!" Fang Yu turned and ran away.

"I won't chase you, just be careful and don't run. Oh, I'll chase that one, but I won't chase this one," Thor shouted from behind.

His words were so funny that Fang Yu covered her mouth and laughed.

Back home, Fang Yu leaned against the door and touched her burning cheeks.

Footsteps came from the stairs; it must be her mother returning. Fang Yu quickly changed into slippers and pretended to have been home for a while.

Yu Jihong opened the door and came in, saying as she changed into slippers, "Fang Yu, this young man who came to buy clothes yesterday has come back to buy some again today."

"Huh?" Fang Yu remembered that she hadn't replied to Tang Zebin's pager yet. "Why is he buying again?"

"He didn't say."

"You just came to buy a piece of clothing and didn't say anything?"

Yu Jihong recalled, "He didn't say anything, but he walked into the store. I recognized him and asked him if his mother liked the clothes from yesterday. He said she liked them. He looked around the store and bought another one."

"Oh, maybe his mom likes it and thinks it's good, so she bought it again." Fang Yu quickly came up with an excuse, but she felt a little guilty inside.

"Probably," Yu Jihong said without giving it much thought. "Did you find the content at an internet cafe?"

"Yes, Mom, I'll wash it first."

"good."

While taking a shower, Fang Yu wondered whether she should tell her mother. If she did, her mother would definitely feel uncomfortable if Tang Zebin came to the store again, and it would be awkward for everyone. So she decided not to tell her for now.
