55 Making Plans

Gosh ... Haoran was imagining Emma naked and how he made love to her pa.s.sionately! He had such vivid imagination of every curve of her body! It really made her blush every time she remembered that moment.

"All right ... then I'll think of a birthday present for you," Emma finally said. She then looked out the window and realized that it was already dark. She was always happy to stay with Haoran that she often forgot the time. "I have to go home now. Grandma will look for me."

Haoran nodded. He closed his laptop and took the car key from the cabinet. He always drove Emma home after they spent all day together on Sat.u.r.day.

"Next time we must go somewhere for our date," Haoran said, winking at Emma when he opened the pa.s.senger door for her. The girl just smiled and nodded.

Lately, Emma's face looked bright and happy. That didn't escape Grandma Lin's attention. The old woman suspected that Emma now had friends, and she spent a lot of time with them.

Grandma Lin never interfered in Emma's personal life. Even if she texted Emma to ask about her whereabouts when dinner time came, it was only because she cared about her, not wanting to be nosy.

Normally, on Sunday, Emma would study alone at home, tinkering with various computer programs she had learned from the course. Now, she had understood almost all the basics of information technology, and slowly she had even begun to hack several simple websites to test her abilities.

After working with her laptop for hours, she would pause and help Grandma Lin cook lunch together. Emma started to enjoy cooking and trying new recipes after she lived with the old woman.

In the past, Oma Lin was a chef with her own food stall. She managed this business with her husband and all their customers loved her cooking. Unfortunately, after Grandma Lin's husband died, she was buried in debt and was forced to close her business. Now she survived with government benefits.

She still loved cooking, and she longed to cook for others. That's why, when Emma started living with her, Grandma Lin was so happy. She could cook for another person besides herself. The girl really liked Grandma Lin's cooking. The old woman's face always beamed when Emma praised the delicious cuisines she made. Now, they had set every Sunday as a day for them to cook together.

Like today, they worked together in the kitchen to cook stir-fried mushrooms with oyster sauce and black pepper beef for lunch. As they sat facing their homemade dishes today, Emma suddenly thought of cooking a special meal for Haoran as his birthday present.

'Ahh .. but he will have lunch with his father on his birthday,' Emma muttered to herself. She pondered for a moment and then put the thought away. Hmm ... she must think of another gift.

This was really a really difficult thing. Haoran came from a very wealthy family and could get whatever he wanted easily. Emma didn't know what kind of gift is suitable for a man who had everything.

Allan still tried to sit next to Emma in the Database and Operating System cla.s.ses. He became even more interested in Emma because he saw how quickly she understood all the material taught by the trainers in cla.s.s. He realized that he had never found a girl as beautiful and smart as this one.

Well... when he was still in high school, he was close to Bianca, his junior who was also the vice-president of the Student Council. He knew that Bianca liked him very much, and Allan was very happy to get the attention of a popular girl who was both beautiful and smart.

The only reason he and Bianca did not officially date was that he had promised his father not to date while he was in high school. Bianca knew that, and she faithfully waited for him and supported Allan to enter the medical school.

Actually, now Allan had gotten the free-pa.s.s from his parents to have a relations.h.i.+p with any girl he wanted. But now, after he met Emma, ​​Allan's views changed. His heart was no longer filled by Bianca, but Emma.

Ahh ... he had to think of a way so he could continue to meet Emma after their summer course was over. By the end of August, he would start going to college, and Emma would go back to high school. They would not meet again.

"Hi, Emma ... you seem to like computer science so much..." Allan commented one day. "Are you interested in coming to the Cyber ​​Security International Conference in two weeks? I know one of the speakers and I can get two tickets for us. The event is very exclusive, you know."

Emma, ​​who was packing up her books, looked up and frowned. She had heard about the conference and learned that it was quite a prestigious event. It would be attended by many prominent people in the cybersecurity industry and also some notable hackers.

Goose seemed to be very busy lately and had apologized to Haoran because she could not be a mentor to Emma.

Well, maybe it would be good for Emma to come to the conference and look around. Who knows, she might be able to learn something.

Finally, the girl nodded. "Of course."

"Ahh ... very good!" Allan was very happy to hear her positive reply.

"When is the event?" Emma asked, opening her cellphone. She wanted to added the event in her calendar.

"Sat.u.r.day, August 19," answered Allan.

Emma nodded and made a note. "Thank you."
