I'm back in 1990

Chapter 818: Keeping the Promise

To spend more time with his two sons, Huang Xiaochuan stayed in Singapore for a few more days, while also waiting for Zhang Yun to transfer the funds to the United States.

Yavin and Luca would pester him every day, wanting to share their achievements with him.

"Dad, this is the solar system model we made." Luca pointed to the corner of the room, where there was a solar system model built with various materials. Although it looked a bit rough, all the planets of the solar system could be clearly seen.

Yavin and Luca looked at their father expectantly, hoping to gain his approval.

"Did you guys make this? It's really amazing!" Huang Xiaochuan certainly wouldn't hold back his praise.

He squatted in front of the model and observed it carefully. Each planet was labeled, and various LED lights were used to show the internal structure of the planets.

Luca pointed to a red planet above the Earth: "This is Mars. Yavin and I have been studying it, and we believe its geological history may be more complex than astronomers previously thought."

Yavin added, "Based on some publicly available data and papers from NASA, we speculated that there might be a large amount of water ice beneath the Martian plains, so Lukat and I specifically marked it with blue symbols on the model."

Yavin pointed to a spot on the Mars model.

My goodness! Huang Xiaochuan was deeply impressed as he watched his two nine-year-old sons discuss planetary science with him in such a professional tone. Of course, he was also filled with pride.

"You guys are really great, you know more than I do!" Huang Xiaochuan exclaimed, praising his sons with one arm around each of them.

With their father's approval, the two brothers smiled happily. Luca seized the opportunity to ask, "Dad, you haven't forgotten your promise to take us to sea, have you?"

"Of course I haven't forgotten! You all have a day off tomorrow, so we'll head out to sea tomorrow!" Huang Xiaochuan stated the schedule with certainty.

The two brothers cheered, "Yay!" They even gave each other a high five. Seeing this, Huang Xiaochuan also stretched out his two hands and gave his two sons a high five to celebrate.

Zhang Yun, who came in to call the father and his two sons downstairs for dinner, witnessed this scene. At that moment, she felt a surge of happiness and longed to see such a scene more often, but she knew it was impossible.

"Luca, Alvin, come downstairs for dinner!"

"Okay, Mom!" The two brothers left the room one after the other, leaving their parents alone inside.

"You've raised them wonderfully, truly wonderfully!" At this moment, Huang Xiaochuan was genuinely grateful to Zhang Yun.

Although Zhang Yun was very proud, she still responded in a calm tone: "They are my sons, so of course I have to raise them well so that I can entrust the Xue Group to the two brothers in the future."

Huang Xiaochuan nodded; he could understand Zhang Yun's thoughts.

"Let's go! Don't keep our son waiting too long." Zhang Yun called to Huang Xiaochuan to come downstairs for dinner.

After dinner, Huang Xiaochuan went to the two brothers' room with them. He had been invited to help them complete an assignment.

"Dad, Luca and I are looking up some information about the composition of Saturn's rings. You can join us and help us too."

Huang Xiaochuan smiled and agreed, "Then I'd be very honored!"

At the arrangement of his two sons, Huang Xiaochuan sat on the ground, took a laptop, and went online to help his two sons find relevant information.

Just then, Zhang Yun knocked on the door: "Can I join you?"

Yawen ran over with a smile and took his mother's hand: "Of course you can, Mom. You can help us check if the expression in this summary is clear enough. Luca and I feel that some of the terms are not used accurately."

"Really? Then I definitely have to take a good look!" Zhang Yun readily agreed.

The next day, under a clear blue sky, a large yacht was sailing close to the coastline off the coast of Singapore.

Huang Xiaochuan, dressed in a casual shirt and loose shorts, stood on the deck of the yacht with sunglasses on. The sea breeze was blowing and filled with a salty, damp smell.

Luca and Ivan were very excited. They kept running around on the deck. Their mother didn't usually take them out to sea, and the last time they went out to sea was a long time ago.

Zhang Yun sat leisurely on the sofa, looking at the father and his two sons with a smile on her face.

Today she wore a beige casual linen maxi dress and a wide-brimmed sun hat to shield herself from the sun.

There are many ships traveling through the strait, including several cargo ships belonging to Chimelong Shipping. Because of their striking green paint, they can be seen from a great distance.

The captain specially brought three pairs of binoculars for the father and his two sons so they could enjoy the scenery.

"Dad, that's a container ship." Luca pointed to an ocean-going container ship about three nautical miles away from them.

Huang Xiaochuan raised the binoculars hanging around his neck and looked at the spot Luca was pointing to. After observing for a while, he put the binoculars down, smiled, and nodded.

He then explained some basic knowledge about international trade and shipping to the two brothers, such as the standardization of containers, the major shipping routes in the world, and the significance of Singapore as an important global port.

The two brothers listened very attentively and occasionally asked questions.

Zhang Yun silently observed the father and his two sons. She understood that the role of a father could not be replaced by her alone, and the man she had chosen was very knowledgeable. This kind of knowledge imparted from a father's perspective was indispensable for her two sons' growth.

One very important activity on today's itinerary is snorkeling.

The yacht soon reached the diving area and stopped there. The crew began to prepare, while Luca and Avan were already eager to try it out.

"Dad, will you go swimming with us?" Luca asked expectantly.

"Of course, let me tell you, I'm a great swimmer." Huang Xiaochuan boasted to his two sons. Actually, it wasn't really boasting; he was indeed a very good swimmer.

Under the protection of the crew, the father and his two sons jumped into the clear seawater. Huang Xiaochuan held one son in each hand, and the three of them followed the diving instructor to learn how to use the snorkel and mask so that they could easily observe the corals and tropical fish underwater.

Luca and Yavin are quick learners. After a few tries, they mastered the knack of snorkeling and kept diving underwater to admire the underwater world.

After surfacing, they would share what they had seen with their father.

"Dad! I saw a blue starfish, it's so beautiful!"

"I saw a group of small silver fish, and their bodies reflected light like mirrors."

"There are also many different kinds of sea anemones."

"And clownfish."

Huang Xiaochuan responded with a smile, enjoying this rare moment. He would be returning to China in two days. He had been away for about ten days, and there were still a lot of things waiting for him at home.
