Chi Yan drove her to her uncle’s house. The residential building where her uncle lived was very lively, and almost every household had lanterns and couplets hung up, which gave out a festive atmosphere.
Jiang Sui thought, if Chi Yan couldn’t bear to leave her now, he could coax her and she would stay with him.
She looked at him several times with her beautiful peach blossom eyes, then lowered her eyes in disgust and said, “I’m getting out of the car.”
The girl was so angry with him that she opened the car door and jumped out, this time without looking back.
Chi Yan then raised his eyes and looked at her.
She left small, shallow footprints in the snow, and finally got farther and farther away from him.
This winter was actually very cold. With such heavy snow, how could it not be cold? Only Jiang Sui happily felt that this winter was warm.
She wore the hat he had put on her, the scarf he had bought for her, and the shoes he had put on her. Whatever his dark eyes could see was already a whole world in his simple life.
What a lovely and vivid world! He wanted her to live like this forever.
She should know nothing.
She didn’t know that he might not be able to stay till New Year’s Eve and would leave soon, and she didn’t know that in her eyes, his cold send-off was a farewell. She got angry and kicked him lightly, and his heart was so painful that it shrank.
However, Chi Yan knew that there was no better or more peaceful way to say goodbye than this.
The ice in his eyes slowly disappeared, and an almost gentle light appeared in them.
The world around her was full of laughter and joy. Some people were even walking on the street carrying New Year’s goods. Everyone was smiling.
She went upstairs and gradually disappeared from his sight.
Chi Yan was almost horrified at that moment and shouted loudly: “Sui Sui!”
The girl couldn’t hear anything because of the car window. He lowered the window with trembling hands, and the cold winter wind blew in instantly.
The cold wind hurt his cheeks and eye sockets, and also woke him up.
His voice also dropped and became hoarse: “Sui Sui.”
The girl walked further and further away.
He said softly, “I love you.”
It was 2006, snow was falling heavily on the streets, he fell in love with someone for the first time, but his heart was broken at the same time.
Chi Yan really wanted to have a cigarette, but when he felt through his pockets, he found nothing. Then Chi Yan remembered that he hadn’t smoked for a long time.
….
Jiang Sui took a long time to look down from the upstairs balcony. Chi Yan’s car had already left, leaving neat wheel marks on the snow. She was suddenly discouraged.
Jiang Xue asked her curiously, “What are you looking at, little cousin? You look so eager.”
Jiang Sui shook her head.
After staying at her uncle’s house for a few days, Jiang Xue suddenly said one day: “If you want to go back, then go back. I will keep it a secret from my dad.” She winked at Jiang Sui.
Jiang Sui couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
Jiang Xue’s exaggerated voice sounded like a gorgeous aria: “Which man is so bad that he made our little fairy unhappy? He really has no vision.”
Jiang Sui: “Sister, please stop talking nonsense.”
“Tsk, your elbows really turned outward as you grew older.”
Jiang Sui said: “There are many people in our family who can celebrate the New Year together, but he is alone.”
He was so alone that she couldn’t even get angry.
In any case, being with Chi Yan was the most peaceful time she had ever spent since she grew up. She would not be awakened by nightmares about Jiang Shuisheng’s illness at night, nor would she face the pressure from Chi Yiming every day when she went out.
Chi Yan never seemed to show how much he liked her, but when she thought about it carefully, he had actually done everything.
It was a good thing to be able to sleep peacefully under his protection.
Jiang Sui packed her small bag and said, “So should I really leave, sister?”
“Hey, go, go, go quickly.” Jiang Xue waved her hands. She had loved someone deeply before, and she knew that a girl’s heart would become soft and compassionate when facing her loved one.
Before Jiang Sui walked out the door, she put on her deer hat and scarf and put on her snow boots.
It was already New Year’s Eve, but outside the small garden house it was quiet.
There was a warm light in the room.
She carefully brushed off the snowflakes on her body, revealing her slender and soft cheeks.
Everything was quiet, and the area around the small villa was not as lively as that around her uncle’s house. After all, it was also a wealthy area, and there were only a few families there with a strong New Year atmosphere.
Jiang Sui’s heart was pounding as she was thinking about what to say when she saw Chi Yan later.
Was their behavior the other day a cold war? Or was it a quarrel?
Logically, she should wait for him to take her home, but his ash-like pupils made her feel extremely lonely for some reason.
After all, no one in this world was born with the inability to love, so she had to give Chi Yan some time.
Jiang Sui’s heart softened. She didn’t use the key to open the door but walked up and knocked.
Chi Yan heard a knock on the door.
He and Shui Yang and the others had a deadline of tomorrow.
He would be leaving as soon as the day broke.
He shouldn’t drink, he should be rational and sober, put away all the messy fragile emotions, put up his armor and fight. But his heart was too uncomfortable, so he drank some wine in the end. The house was empty, and she wouldn’t come back, he knew this.
He would no longer see her.
When there was a knock on the door, he thought calmly, was it daybreak already?
Chi Yan got up and opened the door. Tonight was the last snowstorm in February.
Spring would be here soon.
Unexpectedly, a soft girl rushed into his arms. She was very passionate as she rushed into his arms recklessly.
He held her to cushion the force, and there was a fragrance in his arms.
The girl hooked her arms around his neck, wrapped her slender legs around his waist, and the whole delicate girl was almost hanging on him.
She knew that her surprise attack was successful, and she looked up at him, with a galaxy of light in her eyes, so bright.
“Chi Yan! Happy New Year! I’m home.”
He came back to life, yet it seemed as if he had died that night.
The armor he had put up with all his heart and soul was shattered by her in an instant. How could she be so ignorant?
She had left, why did she come back after him treating her like that? Under Jiang Sui’s bright and gentle eyes, his hands gradually tightened.
Chi Yan knew he was not drunk, he was sober.
“Sui Sui.” But why should he be sober? “Just go home.”
