Chapter 120: Because, I am gay.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Han Wei’s coughing was almost completely healed, and there was no need for her to avoid anything, so Wen Yu Lan especially cooked a table of good dishes and gave her a red envelope.

Han Wei also prepared a red envelope for her, but because she _(HW) was two years younger than her, a younger generation, so she refused to accept Han Wei’s red envelope.

Han Wei wouldn’t listen, she stuffed the red envelope directly into her hand, then calmly said: “It’s the New Year, you should invite auspiciousness, so don’t refuse.”

Seeing her so determined, Wen Yu Lan felt helpless, she accepted, and then asked her to eat dinner then drink her medicine after they finished eating.

Han Wei answered with a gentle okay then followed her to the table and sat down.

Han Wei looked at the table full of delicious dishes, hearing the sound of firecrackers that blared in her ears from time to time, she then turned her head to look around.

A piece of red fortune paper was pasted on the door, the furnishings in the house remained unchanged, which made it incomparably familiar, however in some places, Wen Yu Lan hung two short strings of decorations that looked like red firecrackers, adding a touch of bright red color to the New Year.

This was her house, where she’d lived for several years.

And on this day as she sat there looking around the house, she realized that this was like celebrating the Chinese New Year in her own home.

Different from going to Huo Lian Hao’s house to celebrate the Chinese New Year, the familiarity she felt here was embedded deep into her bones, and it also had a nostalgic sense.

No one wouldn’t like to spend the Chinese New Year in their own home.

But some people couldn’t.

Because it would feel lonelier, like they would be forgotten by the world.

Wen Yu Lan’s arrival connected her with the world and let her know that she could spend the Lunar New Year in her own home— that someone would accompany her.

Wen Yu Lan saw Han Wei staring at the small firecrackers in the house and asked with a smile: “What’s the matter? Did I hang it up badly?”

Han Wei came back to her senses and shook her head: “No, Yu Lan hung it up very nicely.” Then she added, “Since my parents died, this is the first time that I’ve spent the Chinese New Year in my own home.”

Because there was no one to accompany her before, so Huo Lian Hao would always invite her to stay at his home and treated her as family.

Wen Yu Lan of course knew the reason for this, so she slowly sat down opposite her and said with a smile: “I’ll accompany you.”

“If Xiao Han doesn’t mind, I can accompany you for the New Year every year.”

I can stay with you for the rest of my life, and be by your side day and night, as long as you want.

Han Wei looked at her and said, “Yu Lan is lying to me again.”

Wen Yu Lan smiled: “I’m not kidding with you.”

Han Wei was taken aback, she couldn’t stop the twinge of joy that burst from her heart, but her expression didn’t show anything, then she very calmly said, “You also have your family.”

She moved out this year because she had quarreled with her parents, that’s why she was spending the Lunar New Year with her here.

This was an unexpected matter, and it was impossible for her to have this kind of unexpected event every year.

Wen Yu Lan just smiled and did not continue the topic.

Family?

She might have lost her family a long time ago.

She pushed a dish towards Han Wei: “Eat.”

……

At two o’clock in the afternoon, they would be going to Huo Lian Hao’s house to pay their New Year’s greetings then after dinner they would come back in the evening.

The both of them put the gifts they had prepared for their greeting in the car, then they set off when they were ready.

After arriving at Huo Lian Hao’s house, Han Wei rang the doorbell and heard a woman answer the door, waiting a few seconds after, a little girl opened the door for them.

The little girl was Huo Lian Hao’s only daughter, her name was Huo Bao Er, she would be a freshman in high school this year, she looked cute and was full of life, her relationship with Han Wei was good, and she liked to call her sister.

Seeing Han Wei had arrived, Huo Bao Er first sweetly called: “Sister Han Wei, Happy Chinese New Year!” Then turned around and shouted inside the house, “Mom, Dad, Sister Han Wei is here!”

Han Wei reached out and touched her little head: “Happy Chinese New Year.”

Huo Bao Er stepped aside and opened the door to let them inside the house, then her eyes moved, and turned to Wen Yu Lan: “Who is this sister?”

Han Wei said: “She’s my friend, just call her Sister Yu Lan.” She turned around and introduced her to Wen Yu Lan, “This is my senior brother’s darling daughter, Huo Bao Er.”

Wen Yu Lan smiled at Huo Bao Er: “Hello.”

Huo Bao Er also smiled at her: “Hello to you too Sister Yu Lan!”

Huo Lian Hao walked out in casual clothes, wearing a floral apron, then seeing them carrying a pile of gifts in their hands, he couldn’t help but frown, “Why did you still bring something.” Then he looked at Wen Yu Lan, “Miss Wen? Please sit down.”

Mrs. Huo also walked out of the kitchen, holding a dumpling in her hand she also came out to see Wen Yu Lan.

Mrs. Huo was still very beautiful, especially her eyes, they were vivid and lively, whenever you look at them, they shimmered like the limpid autumn waters.

She noticed how Han Wei carefully attended to Wen Yu Lan, so she looked at Wen Yu Lan, and glanced up and down her body, then said with a smile: “Xiao Han made a girlfriend?”

Han Wei and Wen Yu Lan didn’t expect that she would say these words, and the both of them were taken aback, Han Wei was the first to come back to her senses: “No! Elder Sister, you misunderstood!”

Mrs. Huo very rarely permitted her to call her sister-in-law, and asked her to call her Elder Sister instead, which was more cordial.

Mrs. Huo had an expression of “I’m a person who has seen the world”: “Is that right, do you think your elder sister is someone who isn’t enlightened!”

She finished pinching the dumplings, and playfully cheered them on: “Come on, your elder sister supports you!” Then said, “Sit down first, I’m making dumplings with your Elder Brother.”

Wen Yu Lan quickly got up: “Let me help too.”

Mrs. Huo hurriedly stopped her: “No need, no need, you and Xiao Han just sit together, my husband is good at making dumpling, let’s give him a chance to show off.”

“Speaking of which, Xiao Han, how is your cough? Have you been taking your medicine?”

Han Wei smiled and responded: “It’s almost gone, and I’m properly taking my medicine, don’t worry Elder Sister.”

Relieved Mrs. Huo then went back into the kitchen, but before leaving, she especially called Huo Bao Er, “Huo Bao Er don’t just watch TV! Keep your sisters’ company!”

Huo Bao Er made an oh, and Mrs. Huo walked into the kitchen.

Wen Yu Lan discovered that she had been watching Yu Ru Bing’s variety show <Three Days and Three Nights>, and the episode being shown was when Yu Ru Bing and the gaming black hole¹ Tang Han Qiu were doing their first task.

When this episode was first aired, the entertainment effect was extraordinarily good, and Yu Ru Bing had contributed to a lot of “perplexed and bewildered” expression pack.

When Huo Bao Er was reluctantly going to turn off the TV, Han Wei said: “Don’t turn it off, Sister Yu Lan also likes Yu Ru Bing, Bao Er and sister can just watch it together.”

After her voice fell, the two Bing fans looked at each other in surprise as if they had met a close relative.

Huo Bao Er was pleasantly surprised and said: “Does Sister Yu Lan really like my Bing Bing too!”

Wen Yu Lan’s voice was soft: “I like.”

Huo Bao Er immediately rushed back to her room, then ran out holding a box, she handed it to Wen Yu Lan as if it were a treasure, then she carefully opened it— it was a piece of paper with Yu Ru Bing’s signature on it.

Under the signature there was also the words “TO: Bao Er” written, it was the special signature that Huo Lian Hao asked from her.

Huo Bao Er’s eyes were bright: “Sister, look, I have a specially signed autograph by Bing Bing, my dad helped get it for me!”

Wen Yu Lan revealed a face that appeared very envious: “Wow, you have a special autograph from her.” Then proudly said, “I have it too.”

A bunch of them.

Her Xiao Han helped get it for her.

Huo Bao Er asked: “Really?”

Wen Yu Lan said earnestly: “En, really, Sister has a lot of them, it’s your Sister Han Wei who helped get it.”

At this time a vague sense of pride faintly emerged from her heart!

She was the happiest of all Bing fans!

Huo Bao Er blinked her eyes in a daze, “Why do you have so many, Sister? Isn’t Sister Han Wei working in the same place as my dad?”

Huo Lian Hao was from the main office, and Yu Ru Bing was an artist from Hua Yao, so they ordinarily don’t see each other a lot.

Huo Bao Er had remembered what her mother said, that Sister Han Wei and her father worked in the same place, they were also both senior brother and junior sister, but why can Sister Han Wei get so many special autographs?

Han Wei patted her head and intimately explained to her: “Because I had just been transferred to Hua Yao last year, so I don’t work in the same place with your father anymore.”

Hua Yao?

Hua Yao!!!

Huo Bao Er’s eyes instantly lit up: “Then can Sister Han Wei see Bing Bing every day!”

Han Wei shook her head: “No, she is now at Guangying Entertainment, while I am at Hua Yao, I naturally can’t see her every day.”

Although this was so, Huo Bao Er could only hold unto her thighs, and softly said, “Sister Han Wei, you are the best~”

Han Wei: “Huh?”

Huo Bao Er: “Huo Bao Er also wants a lot of specially signed autographs~”

Han Wei pushed the frame of her glasses: “Don’t you have a test at the beginning of the school year? If you can get first place, I’ll promise you.”

Huo Bao Er: “I’m going to study!” Then she rushed into her room and plunged inside the ocean of knowledge.

Wen Yu Lan couldn’t help but smile and said, “Should I be glad that I have already graduated?”

Otherwise, according to Han Wei’s method, she wouldn’t be able to get Yu Ru Bing’s special autograph without her taking top place in the exams.

Han Wei whispered: “You are different.”

You’re the one who can make me unconditionally give.

I’m even willing to pick off the moon in the sky for you.

So long as you say that you want it.

Wen Yu Lan tilted her head: “What did you just say?”

Han Wei shook her head: “Nothing.”

……

They had a pleasant dinner that day, and with Mrs. Huo’s bright personality, she very much sparked off the atmosphere without there being any moment of embarrassment.

Wen Yu Lan was still a bit reserved at first, but then slowly relaxed. Because of their hospitality in treating their guests like family, the ambience inside the house was really good, and anyone who visited would come to like it.

After dinner, the two of them were about to leave, but before that, Han Wei and Wen Yu Lan gave Huo Bao Er red envelopes, while Huo Lian Hao and his wife also prepared some for them.

When Mrs. Huo put the red envelope in Han Wei’s hand, she smiled and said: “Bring your girlfriend to celebrate the Lunar New Year next year!”

Han Wei and Wen Yu Lan’s face immediately flushed.

Huo Lian Hao looked at her: “What are you talking about?”

Mrs. Huo elbowed him: “Look at you, only concerned about work, and doesn’t even care if your junior sister has a girlfriend.”

Han Wei helplessly said: “We are not…”

Wen Yu Lan buried half of her face inside her red scarf and said nothing.

Huo Lian Hao glanced at the two of them, and then his line of sight fell on Han Wei: “If you really have a girlfriend, you can tell us, your senior brother and sister-in-law aren’t old-fashioned people. Besides this has been very clear when you were still in the Tang Group before.”

There were clearly several senior executives within the Tang Group that were gay.

Those senior executives in the Tang Group also had this kind of approach.

To be inclusive and treat everyone equally.

Moreover, what they wanted were talents that are beneficial to the Tang Group, so what did it matter to them whether someone liked a man or a woman? That had nothing to do with the Tang Group’s development.

Reaching your hand too long and stretching your control too wide would be too annoying.

But this was also the first time Huo Lian Hao and Mrs. Huo clearly expressed their standpoint to Han Wei.

A warm feeling came out from her heart, and Han Wei held Mrs. Huo’s hand back: “I’ll bear it in my heart.”

“Then we will go back first.”

Huo Lian Hao said: “Be careful on the road, and remember to send us a message when you get home.”

Han Wei nodded, then followed Wen Yu Lan out.

When taking the elevator downstairs, Wen Yu Lan was silent all the way, it wasn’t until when they got in the car that she spoke, her gentle tone changed, and it brimmed with intensity and seriousness: “Xiao Han, how do you look at homosexuality?”

Han Wei paused, and then replied in a polite manner: “It’s reflective of an individual’s basic choice.”

Also their freedom, a right that others cannot interfere without permission.

Wen Yu Lan slowly looked at her and hesitated: “Then you… do you dislike homosexuality?”

Han Wei calmly said: “I don’t dislike it, this is also just something normal.”

Wen Yu Lan was silent for a moment, then she softly laughed, and asked: “Do you want to know why I had a fight with my parents?”

Han Wei looked at her: “…why?”

“Because,” Wen Yu Lan said, “I am gay.”
