"It's really you, Uncle Lin!"
"Hmph, you should call me Brother Lin—I'm not that old!"
"Your beard is prickly, and you still want me to call you brother? How embarrassing!"
"Haha, okay then, can I come in? It's packed outside..."
Yaya quickly opened the door and almost pulled Lin Han by the sleeve, "Yes, yes, come in quickly, don't let that old woman see you! She'll start badmouthing my mom everywhere again!"
Lin Han was pulled into the lounge by Yaya.
He sat down across from the desk.
He asked, "Hiss... who's the old woman you're talking about?"
"That old woman behind the bar, didn't you see her when you came in?"
"I did see her..."
"That's her. I really hate her!"
"Haha, you didn't used to be this talkative; you usually just stayed quiet in your chair."
Lin Han smiled warmly.
Because he knew he personally set Yaya and Yaya's character profiles!
Yaya usually didn't speak much, like a shy little girl.
But in reality, once someone passed her inner barrier, she would become very close to that person!
So clearly!
Lin Han's invisible interaction had already passed Yaya's inner barrier!
Being called out by Lin Han, Yaya's cheeks flushed slightly.
Then she acted tsundere, "I'm still young, I'm not a waitress, why would I want to talk to you more? Hmph!"
"Oh? Impressive, impressive, that's role switching—diligent at work, relaxed in private, very admirable!"
Lin Han said in a doting tone.
Such praise seemed to suit Yaya well.
Immediately, her nostrils flared toward the sky!
But soon, she seemed to recall something and her expression suddenly became gloomy...
"Uncle Lin, I have something I want to ask you, can you answer me seriously?"
"Go ahead, I'll tell you everything I know."
"If... Uncle Lin, I mean if, if I never agree for mom to remarry, will mom always be very tired?"
Hearing this, Lin Han asked back, "Why do you think that?"
"Because... because mom is still so pretty, she must be lonely, right? I read a lot of books and watch TV, grown-up girls all have husbands to accompany them!"
"Husband?"
The kid probably didn't fully understand what that meant.
So he explained, "Girls grow up and want to be with someone they like. Does your mom have someone she likes?"
"Mom likes Uncle Lin!"
Yaya said earnestly.
Hearing this, Lin Han nearly spat out his drink... No, he had to keep some mystery in front of the little girl!
"How do you know your mom likes me?"
"Because... because mom never lets anyone enter here. Uncle Lin, you ate here the day before yesterday!"
"That's because there were too many customers..."
"No, no! Other customers stand because there's no seat, only you can come in!" Yaya got excited, opened a nearby cabinet, "Uncle Lin, look! Mom's cabinet hides her personal stuff. She definitely wouldn't let others in here!"
Lin Han stared for a moment.
Then quickly looked away, acting like a gentleman.
"Alright, alright, close the cabinet!" he said. "Was the photo album I won in the lottery secretly put in there by you?"
Yaya closed the cabinet and sat back down.
"Don't blame Yaya, I didn't know either. I thought it was my favorite essay collection and put it in there by mistake. I just wanted to help mom attract more customers by adding more rewards! You adults always say, ignorance is no crime!"
"True... what a pitiful little girl." Lin Han took out the photo album from his pocket and said, "I don't have money to buy essay collections anyway. How about I return this photo album to you?"
Yaya quickly refused with both hands, "No, no, no! That's your lottery prize, I absolutely can't take it!"
"Then what to do... how about I take you to play as a Creator?"
"But I'm under 16, I can't play..."
"You can play under the supervision of a guardian, but only up to three hours a day!"
"Guardian... mom is very busy every day!"
"I told you, I can be your guardian! As long as your mom signs an agreement, it takes effect, and I'm your temporary guardian."
Hearing "agreement," Yaya's eyes lit up!
"Uncle Lin, do you mean a marriage certificate?!!"
"Uh, cough cough! Uh, no, it's not a marriage certificate, it's a guardian agreement for the Creator game."
"Don't you want to marry my mom?"
"I..."
"My mom is so pretty, has lots of money, is gentle, cooks, does laundry—much better than those young ladies! I heard those young ladies are demons who drain men dry and then abandon them for the next one!"
"Ah, what do you usually watch? Such a little kid and you know so much..."
This is definitely not in the character design!
How come the character's image is even more vivid than the original setting?
There are so many strange and quirky details added!
"Uncle Lin! Just tell me, is my mom pretty or not?"
"She really is the most beautiful woman for miles around!"
"Then tell me, is my mom gentle or not?"
"Of course, she's gentle."
"Then tell me again, does my mom have money or not?!"
"The boss lady is definitely rich!"
"With such a great mom, Uncle Lin, don't you like her?"
"I... I like her... liking is enough, okay!"
Yaya pouted and said, "Since you like her, why don't you marry my mom? Is it because of me? If you treat my mom well, I can leave you guys alone to live by myself! I definitely won't bother you!"
Hiss...
I'm broken...
Lin Han was completely broken.
This little girl is just too heartbreaking!
"Walk away!" (a play on words in Chinese)
"Okay? Uncle Lin!! Are you saying you can marry my mom?!!"
Yaya shouted excitedly.
After that, the lounge fell into dead silence.
Because...
A woman in a white dress and beige apron was standing at the door holding a food tray.
Stunned!
"Uh..."
"Mo... mom... I..."
The atmosphere gradually became awkward.
Lin Han wished he could just crawl into a hole.
He was only teasing the little girl, never expected the meal to be ready so soon!
And the boss lady Yaya personally brought it over!
Right on the spot!
Now how to wrap this up?!
Even if attracted to the boss lady, with no emotional foundation, this sudden situation would only make things awkward!
Fortunately!
Yaya, clever as ever, spun her eyes and quickly thought of a counter!
"Mom! Uncle Lin said, if you sign a guardian agreement, he can take me to play Creator! I really want to play, I really want to play, I really want to play\~\~"
