The people in the room laughed; the two youngest ones in the family were the most mischievous. Su Aihong asked with a smile, "What did Xiao Hai do to annoy you again? Tell your aunt, let me hear it."
Sun Zhenhai quickly gave his sister a pleading look, hoping for mercy, but Sun Zhenling clearly wasnât going to let him off: "He said I should treat him better in the future, or I wouldnât be the apple of his eye anymore. He wants to pamper the cousin that Second Uncle is bringing back instead."
Hearing this, Han Chunxue jokingly scolded her younger son, "Youâre always causing trouble. But when your second uncle brings your cousin back, you all must treat her well. Do you understand?"
Sun Zhenhai brightened up, his eyes immediately lighting up: "Second Uncle, have you really found our cousin?"
Not only him, but Sun Zhenling also shouted excitedly: "Second Uncle, is it true?"
Han Jingchen smiled at them, "Yes, this time we really found your cousin. She will be returning to the Capital next month."
Sun Zhenhai ran up, "Second Uncle, tell us about cousin. Donât worry, when she comes back, Iâll definitely show her around the entire city and help her get familiar with the place as quickly as possible."
Han Jingchen raised his hand and patted his nephewâs head before saying, "Your cousinâs name is Han Xinyan. She just finished the college entrance exam this year and is the top science student in East Province."
Sun Zhenhai was filled with admiration after hearing this: "Cousin is amazing."
Next to him, Sun Zhenling also asked, "Second Uncle, which university did cousin apply to?"
Everyone in the room looked at him. Han Jingchen wore a proud expression, "She applied to universities in the Capital, but I canât say which one yet. Youâll find out when the admission letter arrives."
He actually knew, but since the admission letter probably hadnât reached East Province yet, he was being cautious not to reveal it in advance.
At this moment, Han Chaoyang spoke up, "Second Uncle, do you have any photos of our cousin?"
Han Jingchen took out a few photos from the drawer and handed them to everyone with a smile: "Most of these are candid shots, quite natural."
Suddenly, the room became lively, "Donât grab them."
"Let me see one first."
"Wow, cousin is really beautiful."
"She definitely looks like a member of the Han Family. Look at her nose, itâs exactly like Jingchenâs."
"She looks so much like them. This child has truly grown beautifully. Her face shape, mouth, and eyes resemble my second sister-in-law, while her nose looks like my second brotherâs. She definitely picked the best features from both parents."
Seeing the photos, Han Chunxue couldnât help but tear up with joy, "This is wonderful."
Han Jingheng, looking at the photos of his niece, also had tears in his eyes, "When Xinyan comes back, sheâll be the jewel of our Han Family. You all, as her brothers and sisters, must pamper and protect her well, not let anyone bully her. Do you hear me?"
Listening to their fatherâs words, they all responded in unison, "Okay."
This wasnât just empty talk; each of them made a firm commitment in their hearts to make up for eighteen years of missed affection for their sister.
Holding the photos, Han Chaohui looked up and asked puzzledly, "Second Uncle, why didnât you bring our cousin back with you this time?"
Han Jingchen sighed lightly, "I wanted to, but your cousin also has her own affairs to handle. Besides, I wanted her to receive her admission notice with her name Han Xinyan, so I came back first."
Han Chaohui eagerly volunteered, "Second Uncle, why donât I go and pick up cousin?"
Han Jingchen smiled at his younger nephew, "You can go if you want, but youâll have to wait for your cousinâs news."
Han Chaohui smiled and said, "Iâm not busy these days. How about I head out early and give cousin a surprise?"
Su Aihong patted her younger son, "Alright, your second uncle already said that we need to wait for Yanyanâs news so that we donât rush over and cause any trouble for cousin."
Han Chaohui wasnât done yet, "Second Uncle, when are we going to pick her up, count me in."
Han Jingchen didnât refuse, "Okay, wait for my call."
While that side was full of warmth and joy, Xinyan, on her end, faced an encounter with some difficult people.
During the trip, a mother and daughter approached her, "Little girl, could you swap tickets with us?"
Xinyan looked at them somewhat displeased, "If you can climb to the middle bunk, why canât you climb to the top bunk? Iâll swap with you if you pay me the difference."
