Ten days ago-

“Ladies_and_Gentlemen，welcome_to……”

In the early morning, in the bustling lobby of New York's JFK International Airport, you can see all kinds of passengers dragging suitcases to and fro, they have different skin colors, different nationalities, and speak a variety of languages. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the lobby, in front of the arrivals exit.

At this time, a large group of people were waiting outside the protective fence, ready for the flight that was about to arrive at the airport.

In the crowd, a pair of inconspicuous Asian-looking father and daughter were also waiting aside, looking expectantly at the exit of the plane in front of them that had begun to have security deployments.

Zheng Xiuyan is wearing a set of her usual outfits today, a gray woolen coat, plus a pair of skinny jeans and a pair of black strappy high heels, without sunglasses or masks on her face, and the whole person is standing next to her father, just like other people who pick up people, holding a small sign in her hand, which reads in fancy English font:

【My_Queen，Welcome_Home!! (Welcome home, my queen)

"Actually, there is no need to hold a sign......"

Father Zheng, who was standing on the side, suddenly spoke in pure American English, his voice was a little low, with a bit of a black voice: "We're not here to pick up any guests, we can see your mother as soon as she comes out." ”

Zheng Xiuyan turned her head to look at her father, and immediately shook her head helplessly, and said in the same English: "I really don't know how Dad, you caught up with your mother when you were young......"

"What's wrong?"

Father Zheng is a middle-aged man who is not very tall, wearing a shirt and pants, a pair of dark eyes that look unfazed, some fine lines at the corners of his eyes, and a faint sense of perseverance in his thin and dark face.

"Hey, an ancient ......"

Seeing her father's still unenlightened appearance, Zheng Xiuyan couldn't help but sigh helplessly, and said in Korean: "Abba...... It's been a few days since my mother said that she has been abroad for so many days, and now that she is back, she must be very tired, so we have to greet her well! at least coax her to be happy~"

As she spoke, Zheng Xiuyan raised her hand and helped Zheng's father tidy up the neckline of his clothes, and instructed in a serious tone: "So, Abba, remember, don't say something that makes your doll unhappy later, otherwise I won't help you." ”

“…… What do you think will upset her?"

"Well......" In the face of her father's curious inquiry, Zheng Xiuyan blinked and thought seriously for a while, and replied, "For example...... Abba, wait a minute, don't mention the thing you want to train today!Just accompany your doll mom for a while~ Otherwise, don't talk about doll mom, I won't let you go~!"

After speaking, Zheng Xiuyan also glared at her father as if she was warning.

“……”

The whole person smacked his lips speechlessly, and then saw his daughter's very distrustful expression, Zheng's father couldn't help but stiffen his face, and muttered in a small voice: "So why did you pull me to pick me up before?" She is so big and alone, where do you need someone to pick up the airport......

"Abba!"

Zheng Xiuyan glared at her beautiful eyes quite majestically, and looked at her father with a dissatisfied expression.

"Alright, I didn't say anything wrong. Father Zheng rolled his eyes slightly, and said helplessly: "Your puppet mother is not even traveling this time, she is looking for your OPPA, with your OPPA, can she still have anything to work on? Maybe there are people around us who are arranged by your OPPA to pick up the airport." ”

“OPPA……”

Zheng Xiuyan was stunned for a moment when she heard this, her mood suddenly became strange, and a blurred face flashed in her mind.

And at this moment-

"Huh? ”

After hearing Zheng's father's sudden words, Zheng Xiuyan blinked in a daze, quickly turned her head to look, and soon, she found a familiar figure dragging a suitcase from the crowd that came out of the exit one after another.

"Doll Mom~~"

Zheng Xiuyan's face immediately showed a happy smile, and she raised the sign in her hand and shook it vigorously, attracting the attention of some people around her.

Hearing the familiar call that reached his ears from afar, the figure standing in the crowd turned his head to look at the father and daughter who were waiting for him outside the protective fence, raised his hand and took off the sunglasses on his face, and immediately, a gentle chuckle appeared on his mature and beautiful face.

……

"What's going on today? You're not in the gym for this nerd?"

A family of three was caught in the flow of people and walked towards the outside of the airport, after laughing and talking with her daughter for a few words, Zheng's mother turned her head and looked at Zheng's father who was pushing the luggage and silently following them in surprise.

It's just that in response to his wife's question, Zheng's father's answer made Zheng Xiuyan on the side couldn't help but sigh secretly in her heart, and looked at her father with some hatred.

"It was Jess who asked me to come along. ”

Father Zheng is very honest and says directly and honestly.

“…… Oh?"

As expected, the next moment, under Zheng Xiuyan's gaze, Zheng's mother looked at Zheng's father's eyes and narrowed imperceptibly, and her mouth seemed to ask casually: "What were you doing when Xiuyan went to call you?"

"Working out at the gym. As soon as he mentioned this, Father Zheng's dark brows couldn't help frowning, and his face couldn't hide a little annoyed expression.

Mother Zheng's eyes narrowed even more, "That'...... If so-yeon doesn't call you, are you going to pick me up at the airport?"

The meaning of Zheng's mother's words is straightforward enough, Zheng Xiuyan opened her red lips slightly, and looked at her father, who didn't seem to notice anything wrong at all, and felt a little helpless and worried in her heart.

However, the next answer from Zheng's father stunned Zheng Xiuyan, who was standing on the side full of worry, and Zheng's mother, who had quietly clenched her hands into fists in private, although she didn't see anything unusual on her face.

"Hmm......" Father Zheng seemed to be serious for a while, but then nodded affirmatively, "It should come." ”

"For ...... Why?" Mama Zheng couldn't help but ask with some surprise.

She couldn't help but be surprised.

The character of her family knows that in addition to not lying, she is basically an elm head who only knows boxing, and it is almost impossible for him to be considerate of his wife.

It's not that I can't do it, but I don't know how to do it.

Compared with Dad Zheng, a stinky boy who is now far away in Seoul is much stronger in terms of emotional intelligence.

And this time, Zheng's father's answer was a little unexpected by Zheng's mother and Zheng Xiuyan.

Without much hesitation, he explained the matter: "Leo taught me what I did. ”

“Leo？”

"Han Yu OPPA?"

Zheng's mother and Zheng Xiuyan exclaimed almost at the same time, and both mother and daughter looked at Zheng's father who was pushing the luggage with a little surprise on their faces.

"Did he teach you?

"It's not. Dad Zheng shook his head and said honestly, "This is what Leo told me when we had a drink together last year. ”

"......," Zheng's mother narrowed her eyes, "what did he tell you?"

He said that as a husband, it is not as simple as being the head of the family, and sometimes it is necessary to put yourself in the other person's shoes. Marriage is not something that can be maintained by one person. It's good to have hobbies, and it's not for us to change ourselves, but ......"

Saying that, Father Zheng shrugged his shoulders rarely, raised his head and smiled helplessly at his wife and daughter, and said: "At least after getting married, you have to learn to put those interests and hobbies in the second place, and the family will always come first." ”

“……”

"This is what my son said, and it has nothing to do with you. Mother Zheng narrowed her eyes and whispered, and then she turned her face away. It's just that having said that, her lips pursed slightly all of a sudden still reveal her not very calm heart at this time.

And Father Zheng also shrugged his shoulders when he saw the situation, and muttered nonchalantly: "Whatever." Anyway, if you make you angry, it won't do me any good, and maybe you'll be banned from going to the gym in the future......"

Suddenly.

The air seemed to freeze for a moment, and Zheng Xiuyan, who was walking on the other side of her mother's hand, couldn't help but roll her eyes, and her heart was full of a sense of powerlessness in the face of her father.

I've told you to stop talking nonsense......

Fortunately, Xu has long been accustomed to his husband's temperament for so many years, and Zheng's mother only stiffened slightly after hearing Zheng's father's muttering, and then turned around and glared at Zheng's father fiercely, without saying anything more, looking like she was too lazy to speak.

However, Father Zheng was stunned for a moment when he saw the situation, and frowned strangely when he saw his wife's suddenly cold face, but he didn't dwell too much on this issue, but as if he remembered something, he changed the topic and asked: "Speaking of which, what is Leo's situation on your trip to South Korea? Is it really okay?"

As soon as she heard her father mention this topic, Zheng Xiuyan, who was on the side, was stunned at first, and then she pricked up her ears all of a sudden, and turned her head to look at her mother with a curious expression.

Mother Zheng rolled her eyes beautifully: "Okay, he's fine." But let the children do whatever they want, don't force them to practice boxing, don't look like you're not your own son!

"Where did I let my kids practice boxing? I just cared about it, okay?" said Dad Zheng with some innocence.

"Okay, I don't know what you're thinking? I want to find an apprentice and find an outsider! Those energetic whites or blacks are fine, don't toss my son!"

Zheng's mother glanced at Zheng's father impatiently, then turned her head away, glanced at Zheng Xiuyan, who was contemplative, and couldn't help but ask by the way: "Speaking of which, is it okay for your child to wear a mask or sunglasses outside?"

Originally, Zheng's mother didn't care much about this kind of thing, in the past, when the two Zheng sisters worked, she rarely lived with them, so she didn't know what the artist's life was like, but after living with Han Yu for a few days before, Zheng's mother was more concerned about the disguise of the artist when she went in and out, and she still remembered Han Yu's attitude towards those media reporters, although she still felt that such a thing was not very important in her heart, but she still felt that it was better to be careful.

However, after hearing her mother's worried words, Zheng Xiuyan smiled lightly, stretched out her hand to hug Zheng's mother's arm, and said in a relaxed tone: "Don't worry, it's okay." ”

"Are you really okay?"

"Really~"

Seeing the relaxed smile on her daughter's face, Zheng's mother blinked, then nodded and didn't ask anything more.

Seeing her mother's appearance, Zheng Xiuyan also smiled sweetly again, but the expression on her face was faintly complicated.

In the United States, celebrities don't need to disguise themselves as well as they did in South Korea, which is not to say that the American people have lost their enthusiasm for celebrities, they are equally keen to chase stars.

But unlike Korean fans, who sometimes fall into a state of frenzy when chasing stars, Americans generally maintain a rational mind in the process of chasing stars.

No matter where you are, no one wants to bring trouble and trouble to others.

So in the United States, celebrities rarely hide themselves on the streets, artists are just a profession, and they are the same as ordinary people.

Not to mention......

To be honest, the huge influence of Girls' Generation is only in Asia, and in the United States, although their popularity is not low, but in this country where white and black people are generally common, there are really not many people who will really pay attention to an Asian girl group.

However, for such a situation, sometimes Zheng Xiuyan is quite happy to see it.

She really likes the feeling of being in the spotlight and being the center of attention, and honestly that's one of the motivations for wanting to be an artist in the first place.

But.

No one can really get used to that life of being chased by everyone.

Sometimes, artists have special work schedules, schedules, and styles that are different from ordinary people in and out of their lives, which makes them feel tired in their hearts, and at the same time, they can't help but feel a sense of alienation from people, as if they are ...... They are not the same as normal people.

When she was young in South Korea, she was a well-known national group, and there were almost a handful of people who didn't know them, and Zheng Xiuyan naturally had to wrap herself tightly on the street in the past, and this kind of life sometimes made her feel a little tired.

And in New York, in this country equivalent to half of her hometown, although the strong contrast between before and after does give birth to some sense of gap, but being able to live freely like an ordinary person makes Zheng Xiuyan feel very good, I have to say, this is also one of the reasons why she was quite nostalgic for this place before.

Here, not too many people recognize her, and even if a fan recognizes her, at most they will naturally come up and have a friendly conversation with her, take a photo by the way, ask for an autograph or something.

It's not that no one mentioned the thing that almost changed her life last year, but here, there are no fanatical fans, everyone is kind and will not ask her anything, this is already the best situation expected, and she has nothing to ask for anymore.

Time is always the best peacemaker, and it will always dilute everything.

Just like herself, she also needed time to digest the impact of that incident in the first place.

So she went back to the United States and hid in the place where she was born and raised.

Because only here can she try not to touch that thing, and only then will her proud appearance not be torn off, revealing her scarred heart.

In fact, she herself knew very well that the wound in her heart was not so easy to heal, and she did not plan to return to the place that once made her laugh and sad until she was not sure that she had enough courage to face it.

Originally...... This is what Zheng Xiuyan thinks.

"Oh, by the way, are you going to go back to Korea in a few days?"

The family walked outside the airport, and the bright sunshine made Zheng's mother take a deep breath in a good mood, and then she turned her head as if she remembered something, and looked at her daughter who was standing beside her inquiringly.

Hearing her mother ask, Zheng Xiuyan was stunned again, and then, she didn't know what she thought, a faint smile involuntarily appeared on her red lips, and she just nodded, wanting to say something to her mother.

But at this moment, a voice that sounded like a surprise came in very abruptly and reached the ears of a family of three.

"Oh, Jess?"

Listening to this slightly feminine familiar voice in her ears, Zheng Xiuyan blinked in a daze, turned her head with her family to look, and suddenly showed a little surprise on her face, "Tyler?"

And beside her, after seeing the figure standing not far away and waving at them, Zheng's mother's eyes narrowed subconsciously......
