What is love?

"Yi Yi, why did the CEO tell you to go to his office?" as Qin Hao asks.

"Don't even remind me. He told me to join this stupid contenst and now I have to brainstorm." She drops the folder down on the table, and wonders what she could take with that theme.

"Qin Hao, I'll be taking a break from work for two weeks. You don't need to help me, so you can either take a break or go help Mr. Jin who's subbing for me."

Qin Hao nodded, and saw Yi Yi walking out the office.

The November wind blows on Yi Yi's face, and she tightens the scarf around her. "Where should I go to get ideas." She stares at the busy city in front of her, and feels like there won't be anything here that will give the theme love.

"Maybe I should go home first." Since she has two weeks, there's no rush to it.

After eating dinner, she sat at her desk and stared at her laptop. She tries to search up places where she can go, but there's nowhere that's giving her the feelings.

She got up from her chair and went to her sister's room.

"What do you want? If it's about money, I don't have any."

Wang Jing Jing is the oldest of the three, and out of the whole house, Yi Yi thinks she's the only one with the most experience with love.

"I want to ask if you know any places that give you the feeling of love."

"What did you say?" as Wang Jing Jing drops her pen and looks at her sister.

"I said love. L-O-V-E."

"Why? You're going out with someone?" as she saids and takes off her glasses to look at her seriously.

"What are you thinking. I'm just… I have to do this for a contest and the theme is love." Jing Jing looks at her with half disbelief.

"You can go out of the city and see."

Yi Yi nods. She was thinking about the same too.

"Well, okay. Thanks," as she was about to leave, her sister stopped her. "I'm telling you, open your eyes wide. Don't let me catch you dating another jerk."

Yi Yi rolls her eyes when she hears this. "Your sister isn't this stupid. She won't make the same mistakes again."

"I don't know about that. But if anything, let us check first." Jing Jing looks at her seriously with her glasses on.

"I will. Stop being like mom." Yi Yi left her room and went straight to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, her mom and step-dad are cooking desserts.

Ever since their parents' divorce five years ago, her step dad, who is a police officer, has helped their family a lot.

But in these five years, Yi Yi still couldn't get herself to call him father or even get herself to be close with him. They never force her to, but Yi Yi knows this is her mother's wish.

"Yi Yi, you came out. I was about to go call you to come out and eat," saids her step-dad, Zhao Feng, who came out of the kitchen carrying the bowls.

Yi Yi slightly smiles, and walks over to the dining table.

Shortly, her two sisters came to the dining room too.

"Shan Shan, how's school going? I know it's your last year of high school, but don't forget to do your studies," Zhao Feng said and hands a bowl of sweet red bean soup over to her.

"I'm a good student. Dad, if I pass this week's midterm, can you buy me the new game that just came out?" Shan Shan looks at him.

Zhao Feng slightly glanced over to his wife, and then quickly said yes. "If you get 100, I'll buy it for you."

"Dad, you're the best."

"Mom, dad, the next three days I won't be home. I have a business trip that I have to go to." Wang Jing Jing saids and picks up her phone.

They nodded, and she went back to her room with her phone call.

On the other hand, Yi Yi just focuses on her soup.

"Such a big kid already and still makes a big mess," her mom says and grabs a napkin for her.

"No matter how old they grow, they'll still be kids to us." Zhao Feng saids and looks at his wife.

Yi Yi finish drinking the last bit. "I'm done."

"Do you still want-" as Zhao Feng wants to ask if she still wants more, Yi Yi already went back to her room.

Yi Yi lays on her bed, and opens her phone.

"Love..." A spark then came across her head.

The next morning, she packs her small luggage.

Her mom who's making breakfast saw her second daughter pushing a luggage out.

"Where are you going?" as she asks Yi YI.

"I'm going to get ideas for this contest. I won't be back in another week or two."

"Do you need me to drive you?" as Zhao Feng came out from the kitchen and asked.

Yi Yi looks at Zhao Feng. She wants to say something, but then responds with a shake of head.

"I'm gonna take the train."

There's a long silence in between, and Shan Shan came to break the silence.

"I gotta go before I miss my train." Yi Yi then got out of the house.

Zhao Feng looks at his wife, and gives a gentle smile. "It's okay, I can wait."

-----------

Yi Yi took the train to the suburban area outside the city, and then drove all the way to her grandparents home.

She hasn't visited her grandparents for two years, and what's better than these two lovely couples.

"Grandma, grandpa I'm back," as Yi Yi screams through the door.

She opens the door, and what she saw isn't her grandma nor her grandpa.

But….

"Why are you here?" as she questions him.
