She frowned subconsciously and stared out the window.
so much snow...
He should be leaving.
"It's time to eat." Li Sitong brought the food to the table and waved to them.
Cheng Shuo walked over, Xuejiao was still standing there, he turned his head and said, "Zijiao? What about you, come over for dinner."
"Okay..." Xue Jiao came back to her senses, frowned, walked to the dining table and sat down, holding her bowl listlessly.
Cheng Shuo glanced at the absent-minded Xuejiao and said calmly, "The snow outside is getting heavier and heavier."
Li Sitong only thought he was sighing and said, "No, when we were in City C, we had never seen such a big snow. It would be piled up without sweeping in a while. Really, I didn't dare to go out the door."
"It's the north after all." Cheng Mingze answered while looking at his phone.
"Mingze, don't work if you eat." Li Sitong looked at Cheng Mingze worriedly.
They seem to have developed some software and installed it on their mobile phones, and then Cheng Mingze runs it on his mobile phone when he doesn't use his computer.
All day long, I either hold my computer or my mobile phone.
It's not like a vacation at all.
He swallowed the food in his mouth, smiled and said, "It's okay, it's running on its own, I just took a look."
Li Sitong nodded, and said nothing, and served Cheng Mingze and Xuejiao with vegetables.
"Zijiao, eat quickly, what are you thinking?" Li Sitong tapped the bowl lightly with his chopsticks.
Xuejiao, who was wandering in the sky, immediately returned to her senses, shook her head, and her movements were casual, obviously absent-minded.
Is he... still out there
"By the way, say something serious." Cheng Shuo suddenly became serious.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Mingze looked at him.
Cheng Shuo and Li Sitong looked at each other, and then Li Sitong said, "That's right, we have a new house, it's a small villa, the house is bigger, and then we'll have an auntie and mother to cook... The craftsmanship is really not very good. "
Cheng Shuo nodded: "Our most difficult period has passed, now Pengcheng has gained a firm foothold in Beijing, you two children don't spend much money, we can consider a good living environment, not far from your school, But you must take a car to and from school. What's your opinion? If possible, we will officially move in in the 30th year."
Cheng Mingze smiled: "I'm fine, as long as Dad has money."
"Where's Jiaozi?" Li Sitong looked at Xuejiao.
In fact, she always felt that adults can make decisions about such important matters, but Cheng Shuo said that the children must agree.
Li Sitong also thought about it. She didn't know how to teach her children Cheng Shuo. In order not to make mistakes, it would be no problem to follow Cheng Shuo.
Xuejiao was stunned for a moment, then returned to her senses: "Huh?"
Li Sitong frowned: "What are you thinking, girl, you are still fascinated by the meal, do you agree with our family's change of house?"
"Agree..." Xuejiao opened her mouth and answered casually.
Then bowed his head to eat, seemingly serious.
He's definitely going back, don't worry...
"That's fine, that's the decision. Let's move in in the 30s. The alarm is still being installed. The house over there is relatively short, so special attention should be paid to safety issues." Cheng Shuo said.
"Yeah." Cheng Mingze and Li Sitong nodded, and Xuejiao also nodded casually.
"Zijiao, Mingze, you can go out and have a snowball fight if you have nothing to do during the holidays. The snow is very thick outside. When you wake up tomorrow morning, it's just time to have a snowball fight and build a snowman. The snow is so heavy that you can build tall people." Cheng Shuo laughed say.
"Pa..." Xuejiao's chopsticks fell.
Li Sitong wondered: "Zijiao, what happened to you today?"
Xuejiao put down the bowl and stood up abruptly: "That... I have something to go out for a while!"
"Hey… "
Cheng Shuo pulled Li Sitong, who wanted to stop Xuejiao, and shouted, "Put on the down jacket and go out!"
"good!"
While responding, he casually put on his clothes and held an umbrella.
It's too cold outside and the snow is too heavy, Xuejiao can't bet on whether that person will go back.
He's so smart and sensible...
But sometimes, like her, she is extremely stubborn.
Xuejiao held an umbrella and ran out in a hurry, her face anxious.
It was brightly lit outside, and although it was already night, the white snow looked bright under the light.
It was very windy outside, whistling and cold.
Xuejiao pulled the zipper up, covering half of her face, then stretched out her neck and looked around.
no one... he should go...
Xuejiao breathed a sigh of relief, and a strange loneliness rose again in her heart.
But it's good to go, at least not to freeze.
She stomped her feet and was about to go back, but when she turned around, she bumped into the person behind her.
Xue Jiao was stunned, the man had already taken the umbrella and covered the two of them.
"Zijiao..." The voice was soft, with a smile.
Xuejiao looked up.
Lin Zhihua was wearing black clothes, holding an umbrella, and smiled down at her.
The two are very close now, his head is lowered, and his eyes are focused on her.
Xuejiao never noticed before...
His eyes were so revealing.
Probably because she already knew his heart so much that he didn't bother to hide it anymore, revealing his true emotions.
Xue Jiao's heart skipped a beat, and she looked away, avoiding this look.
"I... you... you..."
Lin Zhihua chuckled and said, "Zijiao, what do you want to say?"
"You don't want to come, go back quickly..." Xue Jiao suddenly said this sentence as she rubbed her feet on the ground.
If this is an ordinary young man, it may be sad and sad.
But Lin Zhihua has been with her for two years, and she is extremely attentive, and she may know her character better than herself.
"Are you worried that I will be cold?" Lin Zhihua chuckled.
Xue Jiao raised her head and said angrily: "Why are you standing here stupidly? What if I don't come out? What if I don't know? Are you waiting like this?"
Lin Zhihua's smile was even more obvious. He held an umbrella in his left hand, stretched out his right hand, bent it, and gently scratched the tip of her nose.
"Silly girl, don't you know? I'm waiting for you."
Xuejiao was stunned for a moment, then her eyes widened.
"My dad is helping you?"
How can this be? Didn't Cheng Shuo like him and Lin Zhihua... making friends
Lin Zhihua put his right hand to his lips and coughed falsely.
Cheng Shuo wasn't actually helping him, he was helping them...
Well, Lin Zhihua is actually not sure if Xuejiao will come out after knowing it.
He's just betting that she doesn't care about him.
Fortunately, he was right.
She cares about him.
Seeing that he only laughed, Xuejiao gave him a stern look: "How old are you, but... Forget it, don't do this kind of thing in the future, I'll give you an umbrella, you can go back quickly."
After she finished speaking, she put on her hat and walked directly to the gate of the community.
Behind her, Lin Zhihua stretched out her hand and gently wrapped her around her, folding her hands on her abdomen.
He lowered his head and rested his chin on her shoulder.
The umbrella fell to the ground and stopped after turning a circle, with the handle facing up.
Xuejiao froze, as if the pause button was pressed, and it was fixed in place.
Lin Zhihua rubbed with nostalgia, and his voice was soft: "Zijiao, I like you and want to be with you forever."
"Boom..."
Something exploded in Xue Jiao's head.
His movements were very light, and the force on his head was also very light, but Xuejiao felt like it was heavy.
Her attention was taken away by the warmth of her embrace, her heart was beating wildly, her head stopped thinking, and the snow fell from the sky, and she didn't feel anything.
Under the dim yellow street lamp, snowflakes were flying, and the man in black gently hugged the girl in blue from behind.
There was snow in the air, but at this moment it looked like pink bubbles.
The man behind the chest vibrated, and he said softly in his throat: "Because I met you, I know that I am just an ordinary man, blood is hot, heart is warm, I will feel sorry for you, jealous, angry, miss you, and also I will want to walk with you for a long time, from newlyweds to my wife."
Xuejiao stiffened even more.
"Zhijia..." Lin Zhihua tilted her head, her lips lightly pressed against her side face, and spit out her name vaguely.
The breath hit her face, and his voice was right next to her ear, affectionate, hazy and clear, extremely ambiguous.
Xue Jiao's breathing became heavier, but her head was still stuck, and she couldn't say a word.
It was cold and she was hot all over.
After a moment, she broke free and ran away.
The back can be described in four words... run away.
Lin Zhihua didn't feel uncomfortable at all. He looked at Xue Jiao's back and showed a clear smile.
Her ears turned red.
He had just heard her rapid heartbeat.
Lin Zhihua suddenly felt in no hurry, with a smile on his face...
Little turtle, see how long you can hide.
…
Xue Jiao ran home in one breath, closed the door and leaned on it, her face full of shock.
Li Sitong had just cleaned up, looked at her, and asked suspiciously, "Zijiao, what's wrong with you? Why is your face so red?"
Xuejiao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly, the red clouds on her face flew again, completely red.
"Are you sick?" Li Sitong was worried and was about to step forward.
Xuejiao hurriedly said: "No, no! I'm back home, good night mom!"
He ran while talking, and when he finished speaking, the door of the room was closed.
Li Sitong was confused.
Cheng Shuo and Cheng Mingze came out of the study, Cheng Shuo's face was not very good-looking.
"Husband, what's the matter with you?" Li Sitong began to worry about Cheng Shuo again.
Cheng Shuo just glanced faintly at the closed door and said sourly...
"It's really being arched by a pig..."
"Ah?" Li Sitong looked blank.
"My daughter is going to be taken away by Lin Zhihua's wolf!"
After Cheng Shuo finished speaking, Cheng Mingze frowned fiercely, but didn't say anything.
But Li Sitong said, "Ah? That's also relevant. Lin Zhihua and Jiaozi are very compatible."
Cheng Shuo: "..."
…
After Xuejiao ran back, she didn't dare to go out again.
Lin Zhihua didn't bother her this time, but there was a text message every morning and night, and a video at night.
Fortunately, he didn't say anything that made her heart beat faster. He was just saying good night as before, or taking care of her thesis.
But unlike before, he occasionally spit out a sentence...
I miss you.
Every time she heard these four words, Xuejiao always tossed and turned at night, and then she had to admit...
She seems to be thinking too.
But Xuejiao still couldn't muster the courage to meet him.
Because she knew... if she went to see him, it would mean... she promised him.
Accepting the huge change from "mentor" to "boyfriend", Xuejiao was still a little scared and hesitated.
Fortunately, the writing of the paper took most of Xuejiao's energy away, so she didn't think about it all day.
…
Time passed so slowly for seven days.
Only the first draft of Xuejiao's paper is left, and the New Year is approaching, she has promised to give the first draft to Teacher Tan a few years ago.
The workload is still large, and she has been beating on the computer recently.
On the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, Xuejiao received a call.
"Hey, Jiajia, what's wrong?"
On the other end of the phone, Mai Jiajia's voice was anxious: "Zijiao, hurry up and contact Ding Qi, it seems that something has happened to Shulan!"
"What?" Xue Jiao threw away the computer and stood up abruptly.
While changing her clothes, she called Ding Qi: "Hello, Qiqi, where is Shulan? What's going on?"
"Jiaojiao, don't worry, it's alright, but you should come over, we are on Hengshan Road now..."
Xue Jiao nodded and went out to take a taxi.
Uncle Xing went out with Cheng Shuo today, and now she can only take a taxi by herself.
Hengshan Road is a well-known villa area. Cheng Shuo mentioned this place when he mentioned changing houses, but later he changed to another place, which is not far from Hengshan Road.
It is also finely decorated, and they are still making final adjustments. They will officially move in two days to the 30th of the year.
When Xuejiao arrived, Ding Qi and Shu Lan were both there. They stayed outside a community. Ding Qi was standing, and Shu Lan was squatting on the ground.
Seeing that the two were at peace with each other, Xue Jiao was completely relieved.
"What's going on? Jiajia didn't understand what she said, but it scared me to death."
"Ask Shulan what she did! She's a fool!" Ding Qi stared fiercely, looking very angry.
Xuejiao was confused: "What's the matter, how did you come here?"
Shu Lan covered her face, silently weeping, and did not speak.
Ding Qi stepped forward and told Xue Jiao exactly.
It turned out that the company of Lin Yinyin's parents went bankrupt, and then Lin Yinyin moved out of Beijing, and the Yu family also made Yu Cheng cut off contact with Lin Yinyin.
As soon as Yu Cheng was happy, he officially got together with Shu Lan, and said he wanted to get engaged to her.
Today is when Yu Cheng brings Shu Lan home to meet her parents.
Who knew that when he came in, he happened to meet Yu's parents and then showed Yu Chengxiang another girl, and the other's parents were sitting at their house with their daughter.
Yu Cheng was furious and bluntly said that he only loves Shulan, and will not be with others. He only needs Shulan in this life.
The girl who can be favored by the Yu family has a very good family background.
Hearing Yu Cheng's words, the other party was also angry, and the lady took the girl with her harsh words and left.
Yu Cheng's father, Yu Zhengguo, was furious and beat Yu Cheng with a stick. Shu Lan went up and gave Yu Cheng two blows.
Immediately, Yu's mother, Su Qing, brought out "Shu Lan" and locked up Yu Cheng.
The whole thing is like that.
Xuejiao frowned and looked at Shulan: "Are you all right? Are those two sticks injured?"
Shu Lan's voice was hoarse: "It's okay..."
Ding Qi was still angry, and her voice was also annoyed: "Zijiao, you care about what she does, and you are humiliated by others in a hurry!"
Hearing this, Shu Lan shuddered.
But they all know that Ding Qi's speech has always been straightforward, and there is nothing bad about it.
Xue Jiao sighed, patted Ding Qi soothingly, then stretched out her hand to help Shu Lan stand up.
"Lanlan, you know what his family is like. Why did you come back with him when he couldn't protect you?"
Shu Lan's legs were numb, leaning on Xuejiao, her voice hoarse: "We don't know that his parents are..."
Yu Cheng still has a plan. They are going home for a showdown, which is also a test.
I just didn't expect that the other party was already giving him a blind date, so that it became like this later...
"Lanlan... Then what are you going to do next?" Xue Jiao looked at her.
Shu Lan's eyes were blank, and her eyes moved to the building where Yu Cheng lived, gradually becoming dull.
"Yu Cheng is so good, you can't stay with him for a long time in a family like his! Break up!" Ding Qi said decisively.
But obviously, Shulan is not such a character.
"I… "
"Look at Jiaojiao, she is still hesitating?" Ding Qi said in disbelief, pulling Xuejiao.
Xuejiao shook her head, supported Shulan and said, "Let's go to the hospital to see if you are injured."
She paused and continued: "Besides... I know that in the matter of Yu Cheng, what we say is useless. I just hope that you... don't come again in the future."
Shu Lan paused, and then said, "I won't come again."
Being insulted once is enough.
"You haven't faced the strength of his family. When he can't convince the family, you shouldn't have contact with his family. As for the two of you..." Xue Jiao paused again, "You decide for yourself, and I will too. I don’t understand feelings…”
She herself was still a mess, and she couldn't give Shulan any ideas at all.
Shu Lan bit her lower lip and nodded.
After a moment, she opened her mouth: "Thank you..."
She was really touched. No matter what happened, it felt really good to have friends with her.
If it weren't for them... She might still be squatting on the ground in a daze, not knowing what to do.
Whether it's Ding Qi who scolds her or Xuejiao who supports her, these are her warmest memories this winter.
Xuejiao and Ding Qi helped Shulan to go to the hospital for an examination. Fortunately, they went for an examination. Shulan didn't think much of it, but in fact, her back was blue.
Xuejiao and Ding Qi were so angry that they wanted to go to the Yu family, but they were stopped by Shulan.
"I hit it myself, he hit... Yu Cheng, don't worry, it won't happen in the future..." Shu Lan's voice was still hoarse.
Xuejiao sighed and looked at Ding Qi, "Let's take you back."
They sent Shulan home.
In fact, in Xuejiao's opinion, Shulan's family is already very good. Both parents are elementary school teachers and they have a house of their own.
Moreover, Shu Lan is obedient and sensible, knowledgeable and reasonable, are the Yu family's parents really so snobbish? Do you have to be girls from big companies
Xuejiao couldn't figure it out, and couldn't understand it either.
After that, Shulan and Yu Cheng didn't get in touch much, and life was fairly peaceful.
Xuejiao's life is also very peaceful, only papers, papers, papers...
Lin Zhihua was temporarily forgotten by her, and she only devoted her heart to the paper.
The New Year's Eve in Beijing is much more lively than in City C. Every household is brightly lit, with lantern festivals and fireworks.
With this voice, Xuejiao spent her third New Year in this world.
On the 30th day of the new year, the whole family moved into a new house. The new house has three floors, but the area is not as big as that in City C. According to Cheng Mingze, Cheng Shuo has to start repaying the account.
Beijing... It's really worth every inch of land.
On the night of New Year's Eve, their family was busy drinking wine, and even Xuejiao poured a glass of red wine.
She drank her cheeks flushed, and stared at the TV with hazy eyes.
"Zijiao, if you're sleepy, go to sleep."
Xuejiao shook her head, cheered up and continued to watch the Spring Festival Gala: "No... I want to keep the year old."
Li Sitong smiled and rubbed her head: "It's your first time drinking. If you don't go to bed early tonight, you will definitely sleep until noon tomorrow."
Xuejiao: "…"
No... She has a good biological clock...
She's not just waiting for New Year's Eve, she's also waiting for... someone's phone call.
In the first two years, they were all New Year's Eve together. In the first year, Lin Zhihua ran downstairs, and in the second year, she called Lin Zhihua.
This year…
She was waiting for Lin Zhihua's call.
It's a pity that I waited until a little later, but there was still no phone call.
There is not a single message!
"Zijiao, go to bed soon." Cheng Shuo greeted.
Xuejiao nodded, frowned, and staggered back to the room.
Obviously, she should be very sleepy after drinking, but Xue Jiao was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
Until almost two o'clock, Xuejiao finally realized...
He definitely won't be calling.
Thinking of this, she didn't know where a burst of anger came from.
With force, he threw the mobile phone that he had been holding on the cabinet, then lifted the quilt and wrapped the whole person.
Ahh!
Don't fight, don't fight!
Who is waiting
Covering his head, after a while, he felt breathless again, put his head out, closed his eyes, and finally fell asleep.
…
Li Sitong was right, when Xuejiao woke up, it was ten o'clock.
This has never been the case!
Sure enough... After you go to college, you're "loose"
As she reprimanded herself, she got up and got dressed.
Then he put his hand under the pillow and touched three red envelopes.
The first one is thick and it says...
"Zijiao, happy new year, may the new year be happy every day... Dad."
The second one says...
"Zijiao, Happy New Year, Mommy loves you."
The third…
"Sister, little slacker, happy new year."
Xuejiao glanced at the third red envelope and stared fiercely.
Cheng Mingze, the bad guy.
Afterwards, she still put away the red envelopes, folded the quilt, and opened the curtains.
Huh
Xue Jiao was stunned, and stood there firmly with a red envelope on the small balcony outside.
She looked around and saw nothing.
Xuejiao pushed the window open to both sides and walked out.
There are two words on the red envelope, which are strong and clear...
Lin Zhihua's handwriting.
She is very familiar.
Xuejiao slowly approached, then reached out and picked it up.
It's very thin, so there shouldn't be any money in it.
The corners of Xuejiao's mouth moved slightly, but quickly subsided.
When did he put it here
She hurriedly opened it, and inside was a folded piece of paper.
Xuejiao was a little puzzled and slowly opened...
look up.
Ok
What's up
Xuejiao was stunned for a moment, and she raised her head subconsciously.
Shadows enveloped her, and something stuck to her forehead.
Gentle and warm.
