It's not too late to meet in the book

Sunlight filtered through the slits in the curtains, dappling into Lei Xiaoyue's living room. In one corner, a pile of colorful fabrics and various paints formed a miniature art studio. Wang Jing, Lei Xiaoyue's mother, bent over, carefully rummaging through each piece of fabric, her eyes filled with tenderness and anticipation.

"Xiaoyue, these fabrics are leftover from your previous handicrafts. I think they are very suitable for your cultural festival projects." Wang Jing picked up a piece of blue fabric and said to Lei Xiaoyue who was sorting the paints nearby.

Lei Xiaoyue raised her head and smiled brightly. "Mom, you are so great! These fabrics are exactly what we need." She took the fabrics and touched them carefully, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

Meanwhile, in Lei Xiaoyue's garage, Lei Zi, Lei Xiaoyue's father, and Lin Yuxuan were examining a pile of discarded mechanical parts. Lei Zi, a mechanical engineer with a deep understanding of mechanics, patiently instructed Lin Yuxuan on how to assemble these seemingly useless parts into an interesting device.

"Yuxuan, look at this gear. It can be used with this bearing." Lei Zi pointed to a gear and a bearing on the ground and said to Lin Yuxuan.

Lin Yuxuan listened attentively, nodding occasionally. His hands were greasy, but a satisfied smile graced his face. "Uncle Lei, you're amazing! I never imagined these parts could be used this way."

Elsewhere, at Lin Yuxuan's home, Su Xiaoxiao, Lin Yuxuan's mother, was busy in the kitchen. She had prepared not only a hearty lunch for the children but also some snacks, intending to surprise them when they returned. She knew the children had put a lot of effort into their cultural festival projects, and she wanted to support them silently behind the scenes.

"Xiaoxiao, do you think we've done enough?" Lin Yu walked into the kitchen and looked at Su Xiaoxiao who was busy, and asked with some concern. He knew that although the children's projects were very creative, they also required a lot of materials and technical support.

Su Xiaoxiao stopped what she was doing and turned to look at Lin Yu, her eyes filled with determination. "Brother Yu, don't worry. The children have their own ideas and passions, and we have our own experience and resources. As long as we work together, we will definitely help them realize their dreams."

After hearing this, Lin Yu was immediately filled with confidence. He nodded and said with a smile: "You are right. Let's go see them together. Maybe we can help."

So, Lin Yu and Su Xiaoxiao brought their prepared lunch and snacks to Lei Xiaoyue's house. As soon as they entered, they saw a busy scene in the living room. Wang Jing and Lei Xiaoyue were busy selecting fabrics and paints, while Lei Zi and Lin Yuxuan were studying mechanical parts in the garage.

"Wow, you've prepared so many things!" Su Xiaoxiao exclaimed in surprise. She put down the things in her hands and immediately joined the ranks of choosing fabrics.

"Yes, thanks to the help of Mom and Xiaoyue." Lin Yuxuan walked out of the garage and saw his parents coming, a happy smile appeared on his face.

At lunchtime, everyone gathered around and enjoyed a delicious meal. Parents and children exchanged ideas and progress, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere. Wang Jing and Lei Zi not only provided materials and technical support but also encouraged the children to persevere, expressing their confidence that they would achieve good results at the festival.

"Xiaoyue, Yuxuan, do you know that your father and I went through this journey together?" Wang Jing looked at the children and said earnestly, "We encountered many difficulties and setbacks, but as long as we believed in ourselves and persisted in our dreams, we would succeed."

Lei Xiaoyue and Lin Yuxuan smiled at each other, their hearts filled with gratitude and motivation. They knew they were not fighting alone, and there were so many people who loved and supported them behind them.

In the afternoon, parents and children worked together to prepare for the project. Wang Jing and Su Xiaoxiao were in charge of the painting portion, patiently teaching the children how to mix paints and apply colors. Lei Zi and Lin Yu were in charge of assembling and debugging the mechanical parts, and their experience and skills were of great benefit to the children.

In the living room, fabrics and paints were transformed into beautiful paintings by the children's hands; in the garage, mechanical parts, under the guidance of Lei Zi and Lin Yu, were gradually assembled into an interesting device. The whole room was filled with creativity and vitality, as if every corner told a story of dreams and perseverance.

"Xiaoyue, what do you think of this color?" Su Xiaoxiao walked up to Lei Xiaoyue and asked, holding a piece of mixed paint.

Lei Xiaoyue took a closer look and nodded in approval. "Great! This color is exactly what we need." She took the paint and began to carefully apply it to the fabric.

In the garage on the other side, Lin Yuxuan and Lei Zi were busy adjusting a mechanical device. "Yuxuan, how does this gear turn?" Lei Zi asked, pointing to one of the gears in the device.

Lin Yuxuan watched carefully, then exclaimed excitedly, "Great! It's turning very smoothly!" His face was filled with the joy of success.

"Thank you, Mom and Dad." Lei Xiaoyue and Lin Yuxuan said this at the same time, tears of gratitude flashing in their eyes.

Wang Jing and Su Xiaoxiao smiled at each other, their hearts filled with joy and pride. "Kids, you are the best! We believe you will achieve great results at the cultural festival!"
