Chapter 12: Moving
The next day, Lin Yi took his sister to the downtown area of San Francisco.
San Franciscans are very fond of coffee and wine, and there are about 250 coffee recipes and many coffee shops.
The San Francisco area is also a major wine producer in the United States, accounting for almost 90% of the country's wine production.
One of the main purposes of Lin Yi bringing Zhang Yuanying to the city this time is to collect some recipes for coffee making to bring back to South Korea, after all, there are more cafes, and the competition will be greater, so there is a need for some characteristics.
"Oba, there are a lot of coffee shops here." Zhang Yuanying took Lin Yi's hand and looked at the buildings on both sides curiously.
"yes, it's on par with Seoul."
Seoul is the city with the highest concentration of cafes that Lin has ever seen, and he can pass by a café almost every few minutes, and Koreans drink coffee as water. He can often see Koreans walking down the road with a glass of iced American.
This is also one of the reasons why Lin Yi opened a café in Seoul, the consumer group is too large.
After paying some money, Lin Yi also collected several recipes for making specialty coffee.
"Yuan Ying, Oba will take you to Chinatown."
"Okay."
San Francisco's Chinatown is the largest Chinatown in the United States, and it is also the place where Lin Yi has been in the United States the most over the years.
When the brother and sister came to this lively Chinatown, what kind of activities were being held here, and they were performing a show with Chinese characteristics. Lion dance, stilt walking, etc. opened the eyes of Zhang Yuanying, who had never seen these before.
"Oba, is Huaxia the same as here?" Zhang Yuanying asked, looking at the antique buildings on both sides of the street.
"It's different, it's more like a building from the south of China."
Lin Yi has never been to the south of China, he grew up in the capital since he was a child, and the farthest place in China is Jinmen.
"South?" Zhang Yuanying was a little incomprehensible.
"Yes, China is very large, so we divide it into north and south according to the climate, and the people's lives, customs, and diets in these two regions are different."
Zhang Yuanying looked at Lin Yi suspiciously, not understanding at all.
"Haha, when you grow up, I'll take you back to see it." Lin Yi touched his sister's face, after all, Zhang Yuanying also has half Chinese blood, and she should also understand what Huaxia is like.
"Yes." Zhang Yuanying nodded seriously.
In Chinatown, Lin Yi bought his sister some gadgets with Chinese elements, such as a small clay figure pinched in the shape of Zhang Yuanying, embroidered round fans, etc., and the brother and sister also ate a lot of Chinese snacks, although they are not very authentic, but they are not bad.
The brother and sister stayed in the United States for two weeks, during which Lin Yi also took Zhang Yuanying to Los Angeles Disneyland, as well as some other places to visit. It also made her happy for a long time.
Under the introduction of the venture capital company, Lin Yi also selected a CEO, a 40-year-old white man named Alan Alan. Pus, formerly the CEO of another Internet company, has extensive management experience. He will be responsible for the day-to-day operations of ONE.
Lin Yi will be mainly responsible for product development and the company's future strategic direction.
Everything was explained, and the brother and sister returned to South Korea.
When I returned to Seoul, the first big thing was moving.
When Lin Yi paid a lot of money for the house on the top of the building, the decoration company basically worked three shifts 24 hours a day, and it only took more than a month to install the big house of more than 500 square meters according to Lin Yi's ideas, and also built a garden for Lin Yi on the rooftop, and there were some places to rest.
The renovated new home has a total of 4 bedrooms, and in addition to the two bedrooms of Lin Yi and his sister, there are also two guest rooms. Each bedroom is equipped with a cloakroom and toilet. The area is basically the same, about 50 square meters.
In addition, the new home also has a large living room of about 100 square meters, and a dining room of more than 20 square meters, and the kitchen is also built in a combination of Chinese and Western ways.
The rest is a gym, study, entertainment room, etc., plus a large bathroom with a small steam room.
Because during the renovation, the decoration company completed all the household appliances according to Lin Yi's requirements, so now you can basically move in with your bags.
Lin Yi spent another week buying some decorations, necessities for daily life, and the brother and sister were about to say goodbye to the hotel where they had lived for more than two months.
Three days later, the brother and sister arrived at their new home with simple luggage.
"Wonyoung, do you like your room?"
Lin Yi took his sister to see her room first, and the room was painted in pink, blue and other colors she liked. There are also some cartoons on the walls.
In the middle of the room is a 2 m x 2 m pink princess bed, all the furniture is very girly, and there is also a toy area in the room, where a lot of stuffed animal toys have been placed.
"Oba, I like it very much, but I still want to sleep with you." Zhang Yuanying was very happy when he first saw this room, but he was a little unhappy when he thought that he would have to sleep by himself in the future.
"My room is right next to you, you don't have to be afraid."
"It's not good~" Zhang Yuanying used her coquettish method again.
"Okay, I'll come over every day and wait for you to fall asleep before I leave, okay?"
"Then you have to tell me stories every day."
"Okay, tell the story."
Finally made sense, Lin Yi took her to check out the rest of the house.
"Oba, this house is too big."
"In this way, when Yuan Ying has friends in the future, he can invite them to come to the house to play."
"Oh, but I don't have any friends right now." Zhang Yuanying lowered his head.
"When I go to school, I have friends."
Lin Yi touched his sister's head, this girl also suffered a lot. Although he himself has suffered hardships, at least he lived a very happy life before the age of 14, and he has many classmates and friends.
"Well, I'm looking forward to school now."
"At school, you have to unite your classmates, but if someone bullies you, you have to tell the teacher, or tell me, you know?" Lin Yi instructed.
"Well, I know, I'm very good, no one can bully me."
After speaking, Zhang Yuanying also took a taekwondo pose.
"Then you can't take the initiative to bully your classmates."
"Well, I listen to Oba."
Lin Yi and Zhang Yuanying moved this time, and they didn't have anything to bring, except for some things Ye Zichen had in the hotel, they just went back to the small bungalow where Zhang Yuanying used to live to get some of her things.
The brother and sister have no friends or relatives in Seoul, so they also saved a lot of steps in moving, and simply ate a delicious meal, which is considered a warm house.
After eating, Lin Yi stood in front of the wide floor-to-ceiling window with a cup of coffee, looking at the stars in the sky, and this comfortable atmosphere also made his heart very calm.
He felt the feeling of home that he hadn't felt in a long time, a feeling he hadn't felt in years, and the last time he had it, he had forgotten it a little.
"Oba, what are you thinking?"
Zhang Yuanying saw Lin Yi standing motionless in front of the window, and thought that something had happened to him.
"Wonyoung, thank you." Lin Yi hugged Zhang Yuanying and kissed her forehead.
"Why should Oba thank me?"
"Thank you for being born into this world."
Lin Yi still remembers the first time he learned that there was a younger sister in this world, and he was so repulsed and disgusted at that time. And now he can only rejoice, he is now a little afraid to imagine that he is alone in this world.
"Won-young, thank you too." Zhang Yuanying hugged Lin Yi's neck and whispered.
Although she is young, she understands a lot of things, and she still remembers the way Lin Yi looked at her when he first saw her.
Apathy, disgust, and a little bit of pity.
But now, she can feel that Lin Yi's love for her is sincere, and she no longer treats her as a burden.
