I don't care about dating reality shows or the entertainment industry!

Charlene sat on the sofa in the second-floor living room, teasing Lucky with a small ball in her hand.

Lucky jumped around excitedly, chasing after the ball.

"Wang Wang!"

The ball rolled into the corridor, and Lucky immediately chased after it.

Charlene smiled and shook her head: "You have too much energy, Grandma has no energy left."

Lucky sniffed around in the hallway and then stopped at the door of Su Youzi's bedroom.

It stretched out its paws and scratched at the door, barking.

Charlene stepped forward and gently patted Lucky's bottom.

"Your mother is sleeping, don't disturb her."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the door clicked open.

Su Youzi stood at the door, her eyes still sleepy, her hair a little messy.

In her dazed state, she instinctively picked up Lucky and said softly to Charlene, "Good morning, Mom."

Charlene smiled as she looked at her dazed expression.

"It's getting late, it's already eleven o'clock. Hoshino and Song Yi are swimming."

Su Youzi nodded, her eyes still somewhat blank, and yawned.

"Would you like something to eat now, or wait until lunch?" Charlene asked.

"I'm not hungry, we'll have lunch soon," Su Youzi said, putting Lucky on the ground.

Lucky wagged his tail and rubbed against her calf.

"You sleep a little longer, I'll take Lucky downstairs," Charlene said.

"Okay, I'll go wash up first." Su Youzi said, then turned and walked into the bathroom.

Charlene responded and prepared to take Lucky downstairs.

Lucky suddenly dashed into the study and sniffed around under the desk.

Charlene sighed helplessly and went into the study to catch it.

"come out faster."

I accidentally kicked a stack of books under the desk.

With a "bang," the books scattered all over the floor.

Charlene was stunned, staring at the books scattered on the ground, the four characters "Southern Snow" on the cover standing out prominently.

Her breath hitched, and her mind went blank.

He then slowly squatted down, picked up the book with trembling hands, and turned the pages.

It's a great honor that you like Southern Snow.

I am deeply grateful for this.

On this thin sheet of paper, I use words as keys and sentences as locks to weave a dream, painting life with color. Little fish swim swiftly here, leaving their traces, wishing to share this story with you.

Charlene felt dizzy.

Grapefruit...

Little fish...

The two names spun and collided wildly in her mind.

She suddenly looked up at the desk, which was piled high with books.

Same cover, same name.

Charlene's heart suddenly raced, pounding like a deafening drumbeat.

She then looked at the several large boxes piled up next to her.

It's full of "Southern Snow".

Are pomelos small fish?

How can this be?

She blinked hard, trying to dispel the absurd idea.

However, the scene before her was something she couldn't ignore.

Charlene felt a tightness in her chest; she felt as if she had fallen into a huge whirlpool, her thoughts in disarray, unable to extricate herself.

impossible.

Is there something wrong with this?

But what other possibilities are there besides this explanation?

She swayed as she stood up, staggered back a few steps, and managed to steady herself by holding onto the desk.

She tried to stay awake.

We need to stay calm.

She told herself this over and over again.

However, the overwhelming emotions prevented her from calming down.

She needs to confirm immediately.

At this moment, Su Youzi came out of the bathroom and saw Xia Lin standing stiffly at the door of the study.

Lucky was frolicking around at her feet, chewing on a plush toy, while a pile of books lay scattered on the floor.

Su Youzi rubbed her eyes, her sleepiness dissipating somewhat.

"Mom, I'm sorry, the study is a bit messy."

She walked over to Lucky and gently kicked its little bottom.

"You've been naughty again, haven't you?"

As if understanding her words, Lucky wagged its tail and brought the toy to her.

Su Youzi squatted down and began tidying up the books.

Charlene felt like she was suffocating.

Her lips moved, but her throat was too dry to make a sound.

Su Youzi stacked the books neatly, straightened up, and gave Xia Lin a gentle smile.

Charlene tentatively asked, "Are you a writer?"

Su Youzi chuckled softly.

"Yes, I heard from Hoshino that you like reading novels."

Charlene's breathing became rapid, her chest heaving violently, and she struggled to speak.

“Is this your work?”

Su Youzi smiled and nodded.

Charlene stumbled, "Is this a dream?"

Her favorite author is actually her daughter-in-law?!

Charlene trembled with excitement.

She looked at Su Youzi with disbelief and a gleam in her eyes.

Su Youzi blinked, puzzled.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Charlene took a deep breath, trying to suppress her excitement.

Her voice trembled as she asked, "You...you are...Little Fish?"

Su Youzi nodded slightly.

"Yes."

A simple word, like a dazzling firework, exploded in Charlene's heart.

She covered her mouth, her eyes instantly reddening, and she became so excited that she couldn't speak coherently.

"It really is you...it really is you...I...I'm so excited...I'm a fan of yours...I've always loved your work..."

She looked at Su Youzi like a little fangirl, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

Su Youzi never expected that her mother-in-law would be a fan of her books.

What a coincidence!

Xia Lin grabbed Su Youzi's hand, her voice trembling with excitement.

"I've been following you since you wrote your first book..."

She took a deep breath, trying to calm her wildly beating heart.

"You may have...seen my ID...Little Fish, be happy."

These five words struck Su Youzi instantly.

She stared wide-eyed at Charlene in disbelief.

"Are you a little fish who wants to be happy?"

Su Youzi felt her voice was trembling.

Charlene nodded excitedly, tears welling up in her eyes, and held her hand tightly.

"Yes, yes, I am Little Fish Wants to Be Happy. You remember me."

Su Youzi's eyes reddened, and her voice choked with emotion, "Of course I remember."

She burst into laughter through her tears, "You even gave me a huge tip!"

Charlene burst into tears and nodded repeatedly.

Su Youzi hugged her, tears streaming down her face.

"Thank you, Mom, for your continued support."

"Because of you, I didn't give up."

Xia Lin hugged Su Youzi tightly, sobbing uncontrollably.

They hugged each other tightly and cried together.

Lucky, with a plush toy in his mouth, tilted his head and looked at the two people hugging and crying.

The crying gradually subsided, and Su Youzi gently patted Xia Lin's back.

Charlene struggled to control her emotions, speaking haltingly:

"I, I, I'm a little too excited."

Su Youzi released Xia Lin, pouted slightly, and said aggrievedly, "Do you... not like me anymore?"
