After attending class diligently in the afternoon, he did practice questions on the topics he knew.

During this time,

Su Yehao took time to consider selling his song.

Initially, he only wanted to do a Cantonese song.

Later, he realized that since it was a tribute song, the wider its reach, the better the effect would be.

This made the choice easy.

He decisively wrote down the song title: "Me and My Motherland."

It was very suitable for a choir, with an effect no less than a brainwashing song.

He still remembered the lyrics.

As for composing the music, it involved multiple instruments, which Su Yehao didn't know how to do, and he would need professional help.

After school in the afternoon.

He was still clueless about finding someone to help.

Sitting in the classroom, drinking tea,

Su Yehao muttered to himself:

"Su Yehao, ah, Su Yehao, you have to put in two hundred percent of your effort. This isn't just a song, it's a great opportunity to show your face in front of the folks back home, filled with my deep love and respect. You can do it, you definitely can..."

In the blink of an eye,

When in doubt,

Call Mom first.

Mother Tang, after hearing the whole story, understood that this matter deserved attention and quickly helped find a professional record company.

It was said that the record company's boss had had surgery in the hospital and had some connection with Mother Tang.

Asking a few professional composers to help was a piece of cake.

Very good.

Although the process was tortuous, Su Yehao successfully overcame the difficulty.

His family had many connections and a wide network.

To make money, he didn't necessarily have to work himself to death; the situation was now completely different.

After school,

He first accompanied Rabbit Teeth Jun home to get the money; his parents were warm and polite.

If it hadn't been for Yin Liuli calling, Su Yehao would have stayed at Rabbit Teeth Jun's house for dinner.

...

Apartment bathroom.

There was water in the sink, rippling in layers.

Moving without wind.

After a long while,

Yin Liuli looked at the time and said with a resentful tone, "It's already past eight o'clock. I finally managed to make a reservation, but we're definitely late for the restaurant now."

"Huh? Are you really planning on going to dinner?" Su Yehao asked her.

"??"

Yin Liuli asked, puzzled, "What else?"

"I thought when you said dinner, it was some kind of code, like last night."

"..."

Speechless.

After a simple cleanup, the two slumped on the sofa in the living room.

Yin Liuli began to explain:

"The restaurant is basically finished with renovations. If we hurry and prepare for a little over a month, it should be able to open in early May. I've been scouting around and learning management experience from those excellent restaurants these past few days, like how waiters serve, the style of plates and glasses, the cashier, tipping standards, etc. There are many things to prepare. I originally planned to take you to see it tonight."

That small building,

At first, it was specially prepared to keep her around.

Regarding the specific management and operation, Su Yehao mostly didn't have time to get involved personally. Pointing to the bag he had brought, he told her,

"Keep this nine hundred thousand first. Buy whatever you want. The third floor doesn't have any furniture yet, and the café on the second floor is also missing things... Don't overthink it."

"Okay, I don't need anything. I'll keep an account of what I buy, and I'll give you the rest."

Yin Liuli had a clear conscience and a candid attitude.

Regarding the phrase "overthink it," she understood that it was Su Yehao's small act of consideration, to avoid mixing too many interests into their relationship.

Otherwise,

The relationship, which had been gradually normalizing, would become tainted again.

Yin Liuli would feel uncomfortable.

There were still many things missing before the three-story building could be officially put into operation. Since she had decided to help manage it, there would be many places to spend money, so she could accept the money.

Su Yehao smiled and tentatively asked, "Skincare products, clothes, things like that, you should still buy them. Just consider it an advance on your salary."

"...I'll tell you when I need money; I don't need it for now," she said, shaking her head.

"Alright."

Changing the subject, Su Yehao got up, put on his clothes, and said, "Let's go out for a walk and get some snacks?"

"I can't walk anymore; I'm so tired."

Yin Liuli hugged a pillow, her eyes gentle, and added, "I'll have grapes and apples for dinner. The alcohol, coffee beans, barista, ingredients, etc., haven't been settled yet. Do you have any ideas?"

"I still want to open a cat café, so we can sell the coffee at a higher price. Should we go to the pet store on the weekend and look for some cute cats in advance?"

After Su Yehao finished asking,

Yin Liuli's eyes curved into a smile, and she readily nodded and agreed, decisively recommending ragdolls and persians to Su Yehao.

Who wouldn't be mesmerized by her smile?

Su Yehao secretly rejoiced that he had chosen to rescue her that night.

It was really a stroke of luck to have found a treasure.

Yin Liuli had been diligently doing her homework these past few days, recording the notes neatly in her notebook, all about the precautions for running a restaurant and café.

She didn't have much experience.

There were still many problems to solve in order to get the store up and running, such as the chef, which alcohol was economical and practical, which vegetables and meats were fresher, etc., which was far more complicated than imagined.

Su Yehao was equally clueless.

He was efficient, suggesting first poaching one or two old employees from other restaurants and cafés.

Letting experienced old employees help provide advice to avoid detours.

After the two discussed it,

They felt that this was indeed more reliable, and they quickly settled on it, planning to take some time to go to a headhunting company to find suitable management talent.

She was hungry, and couldn't get full on just fruit.

Around 8:40 in the evening, after a short rest, Yin Liuli agreed to accompany Su Yehao downstairs again and eat some street snacks.

After driving her back to her apartment, Su Yehao went home.

Only to find out when he got home,

His dad wasn't there, Jiang Yu had gone home, and the two aunts had gone out to play mahjong and hadn't returned either.

Then what was there to hesitate about?

Of course, he would kill his way back to Yin Liuli.

If there was no one to warm the bed at home, how could it be as comfortable as her place...

——————————————————

There was a time,

When today was similar to yesterday, and there was no expectation for tomorrow, every day was passing quickly, just making do with life.

But recently,

Su Yehao was living a fulfilling life.

He had family, he had friends, and there were even small fish and big fish in his pond, living in harmony and growing vigorously.

He had hope for his career, anticipation for life, and money to spare in his card.

The taste was excellent.

In the following days,

Mother Tang invited a composer to the casino, one who was well-known in the industry. Although Su Yehao didn't know him, he admitted after communicating with him that he was very capable. The song "Me and My Motherland" was being successfully composed.

After understanding Yin Liuli's thoughts,

Su Yehao diligently accompanied her for three consecutive nights, each time at a different restaurant.

And Zhao Yimeng's mother heard from somewhere that Su Yehao was trying to write songs.

She even took the initiative to meet him when she came to school to try and listen to the song.

This woman, named Jin Yu, had known Mother Tang for many years.

During Su Yehao's meeting with Zhao Yimeng's mother, after humming the tune softly, according to Aunt Jin, it seemed that she could directly have "Me and My Motherland" selected.

The song did sound good.

And with Mother Tang's reputation, it was inevitable that he would be specially taken care of.

...

In the blink of an eye,

March had passed.

On Yin Liuli's side,

She personally bought furniture, scouted employees from headhunting companies, and started contacting suppliers.

For several days in a row, she discussed and negotiated with Su Yehao face-to-face every day, focusing on her new job.

As for buying cats,

Since a cat show would be held in the casino in April, Su Yehao temporarily shelved the plan to buy cats after seeing the advertisement.

She was really exhausted this week, busy day and night.

As a result, on the first day of April, when she discovered that her period had suddenly arrived, although her lower abdomen was faintly painful, she was surprisingly relieved.

In her life,

It was the first time Yin Liuli was thankful for this, finally able to relax for a few days.

She really couldn't compete, she was afraid.

What Yin Liuli didn't know was that Su Yehao also had a headache.

The balance was gradually tilting.

This girl was beautiful and didn't talk much, her personality was gentle and quiet, and she liked to keep everything to herself.

Every time Su Yehao saw her,

He always easily mistook Yin Liuli's hesitation as some kind of signal.

In order not to embarrass himself in front of her, he had to keep up appearances.

As a result, during tennis class, Su Yehao's legs were sore, so he had to pretend to have a cramp and sit down to rest...
