"I just said that I won't tie myself into a knot as a Christmas gift for you, and I didn't say that our itinerary will be changed to pick gifts for you." Jiang Xihua frowned slightly: "I don't think this compensation is enough.
You, you change it."
"If you don't want to change it, this one is pretty good." Master Ning didn't believe Jiang Manyue's words at all, and said firmly: "It's actually pretty good for us to go shopping and buy gifts, so we won't do anything fancy."
"That's okay...what kind of gift do you want."
Ning Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I don't know yet, but we'll see about it later... By the way, you can't knit a towel or something? If you have this skill, giving one away would be more sincere than buying one at the mall."
"Then I go back to study now?"
"It's not necessary." Master Ning coaxed, "Let's get in the car first. It won't be easy to get out when there are more people."
Jiang Manyue responded, and Ning Yuan stretched out his hand to open the passenger door and made a gesture of greeting. After the girl was done safely, he walked around to the driver's seat and started the car.
The car is a new car provided by the company. The procedures were all completed a few days ago. It is nominally borrowed, but in fact it was given to Lu Tianjiao as a gift. Of course, Ning Yuan did not want to take advantage of Lu Tianjiao and share the movie box office.
After receiving the money, he immediately transferred the money, thinking that Lu Tianjiao had run an errand for him and helped him buy a car.
Although I don’t know how Lu Tianjiao’s expression will change after hearing the news, I have to admit that Master Ning was very pleased.
Ever since I've been with Jiang Manyue for a long time, I seem to be becoming more and more vindictive...
"What are you laughing at?" Jiang Xihua tilted her head: "You seem to be in a good mood?"
"There's no such thing. I just have a normal expression. There's no way I'm snickering." Master Ning suppressed his smile and replied softly: "Speaking of which, why are you late at all? Were you delayed on the way?"
"No, I was delayed by something."
"What is it? Is it important?"
Jiang Manyue thought about what she had just done and nodded lightly:
"It's very important, but it should have been solved."
"Are you solving things or people... Why do I feel that something is wrong with you Man Yue..."
"Of course it is, but in human terms it can be described as such." Miss Man Yue slowly replied: "Do you want me to tell you the story in detail?"
Master Ning: "..."
"This is exempted. The rules of the world are that if you know too much, you will be killed. I still understand this."
"You can also choose to join the group directly, so that you won't be killed."
The two of them just chatted together, and for a moment Ning Yuan felt that the scene at this moment was very subtle:
The street outside is full of red and white Christmas-style decorations. The heating inside the car is warm. The singer’s voice in the car stereo also sounds lazy and casual in the warm air. The girl you like is sitting in the passenger seat. You can do whatever you want.
Chatting about various topics, no one cares about where the next destination will be, because to be honest, you don’t know where you want to go with the girl in the co-pilot.
No matter where you go, you will be happy as long as you are with her.
"Let's get out of the car and take a walk." Jiang Manyue looked out the window and suddenly said, "It seems to be snowing."
Ning Yuan accepted the proposal. He parked the car at a parking spot. When he got out of the car, he looked up in the air and realized that the tiny particles falling on his face seemed to be snowflake crystals. It was just that the city was full of people and traffic.
As time passes, the snowflakes accumulate and melt into water before they fall to the ground.
White Christmas, but it doesn’t seem to be pure white… at most it’s off-white?
But even so, in this southern city where it rarely snows, a little bit of snowflakes and ice crystals still caused many passers-by to shout and scream. The lovers cuddled closer to each other because of the arrival of the snowflakes.
They share each other's body temperature and express their joy with childish or mature conversations.
"Wow...it's snowflakes. I want to take a photo and post it on WeChat Moments..."
"Dear, you said we saw snow on Christmas in the first year of our relationship. Is this a good sign?"
"Of course, we will have to see snow in many places in the future, including Alaska, Hokkaido, and even the Arctic Circle! We will go see snow all over the world."
Listening to the lovers boasting about Haikou like this, Ning Yuan couldn't help but smile a little. He turned his head and looked at Jiang Manyue, and found that the corner of the girl's mouth also had a slight smile.
"Man Yue, you are from the north. Snowing shouldn't be considered a Chinese New Year for you, right?"
"Of course it doesn't count, but when I was a kid, I usually played in the snow during the Chinese New Year, so it's not that different from the Chinese New Year." Jiang Manyue said softly: "The snow in Yanjing is much heavier than here."
"Are you showing off in front of me, a southerner?" Master Ning curled his lips and thought to himself, although the snow in the north is heavy and heavy, have you ever seen a flying giant?
Do you think we southerners would be proud of this?
Don't be too arrogant! Northern boy!
"A little bit." Jiang Manyue turned her head, with a smile in her eyes: "If you have a chance, I'll invite you to Yanjing to see the snow."
Master Ning was slightly startled when he heard this, and thought to himself, do you still want to ask for such a thing? I can take a plane and fly everywhere where I can’t see the snow? However, when he came back to his senses, he thought about it...
It usually snows during the Chinese New Year... So if you invite me to Yanjing to see the snow, rounding it off is equivalent to inviting me to Yanjing to celebrate the New Year?
Turtle, I was teased.
In this way, they knew each other well, and the hazy state with only a layer of window paper was actually the most fascinating state in a relationship. He suddenly had the urge to catch up and pat Jiang Manyue on the shoulder, waiting for her to look back.
The sudden urge to confess his love, on such a Christmas Eve when the snow was about to fall, he and Jiang Manyue simply confessed their love and got together.
This sounds like a very simple thing. So Ning Yuan stepped forward, caught up with Jiang Manyue and asked with a smile:
"Really want to invite me to see the snow?"
"Why do you think what I said is false?" Jiang Manyue said, "You won't know if it is true until you come here."
"It's indeed very attractive...but I can't just watch the snow for nothing, right? How about I treat you to a fireworks display?"
Jiang Xihua tilted her head and seemed to think for a while, then nodded slightly, her tone sounding extremely light:
"OK."
Master Ning immediately felt relieved when he asked. It turned out that even a girl like Jiang Tiandi could not escape the capture of the sense of ritual, but this was good. At least it showed that everything he had done before this was still meaningful.
They walked up and down, walking side by side. In this Christmas that had not been decorated with silvery white snowflakes, Ning Yuan's thoughts had already traveled through many times, spanning to New Year's Eve a few days later.
Next year is a new year.
…
On the night of December 27th, there were still 101 hours and 49 minutes left before the confession time.
Everything is ready. In order to prepare for various emergencies that day, Master Ning has made sufficient plans.
There was no news from Lu Jiujiu and Gu Guanxue, as silent as the dark night outside.
Even Xiao Ling'er hasn't been pestering him recently.
The first two people actually understood Lu Jiujiu very well. He had already said goodbye. Although Gu Guanxue had not said goodbye formally, with Xuebao's cleverness and wit, he would not be able to see the current situation clearly.
We watched the movie premiere together and went shopping together on Christmas Eve. Jiang Manyue's presence gradually pushed Gu Guanxue out of our daily activities. He had even made arrangements to give Jiang Manyue a visit on New Year's Eve.
Watching a grand fireworks... If this can't be called victory or defeat, Gu Guanxue's subsequent behavior can only be described as stubborn resistance.
But Xiao Ling'er...
To be honest, he couldn't see the little girl clearly... To say that this girl was clingy, she was still clingy when she was a child. But after reaching junior high school, Xinxu had Lu Jiujiu join her and Xiao Ling'er felt threatened.
It started to change into another form of little cotton-padded jacket...
Ning Yuan originally thought that this girl's current resistance to Jiang Manyue and Gu Guanxue was just out of habit. After all, she had gone through a process from resistance to acceptance with Lu Hanhan before. He planned to wait until he finished confessing to Jiang Manyue.
After that, they had a good negotiation with Xiao Ling'er, but now the little girl suddenly became obedient and quiet. This change made Ning Yuan a little frightened.
If you don’t explode in silence, you just lead the dog in silence... Could Xiao Ling’er be holding back some big move?
The yandere and dark girl is limited to...I definitely don’t want this card! The clingy and cute one that I used to have when I was a kid is more to my liking.
Just when Ning Yuan was trembling with fear that he would be stabbed in the back by his sister during this wave of moon-cutting actions, an unexpected message was sent to his mobile phone.
On December 29th, there are still 52 hours and 7 minutes left before the New Year’s Eve confession.
Gu Guanxue was the first to arrive at the booth reserved by the young rich woman Chen Ling. It was still early and there was no one on the seat. Xuebao looked at the surrounding environment. The bar was playing lyrical and elegant jazz music at the moment. The warm tones were in contrast to the cold outside.
The cold wind formed a sharp contrast.
"Hello, what do you need?"
"A glass of lemonade, and I'll order the rest when my friend comes." Gu Guanxue closed the menu and smiled. The sterling silver snowflake earrings in her ears swayed slightly, reflecting the charming brilliance. The waitress
It seemed that Xue Bao's smile made his heart beat faster unconsciously. He quickly left Xue Bao's side with the menu in his arms.
Oh hoo…
The person she made an appointment with hadn't arrived yet, so Xuebao had nothing to do, and she had no interest in playing with her mobile phone at the moment, so she could only look at the surroundings in a daze. Fortunately, Chen Ling didn't ask her to wait.
Too long. Not long after, the classic Yanjing four-person team appeared in front of the girl.
Gu Guanxue was slightly startled when she saw this. After the four of them sat down, she withdrew her gaze. She stared at Chen Ling with a half-smile and asked, "Okay... On the surface, she said she had something to discuss with me, but actually she called Qi Qi.
An accomplice? Are you planning to negotiate with me?
"Look at what you said. Didn't I realize that we haven't been together for a long time? I found an excuse to trick you into having fun together." Chen Ling quickly complained: "Look at how miserable I am, even calling you
You still have to do so many little tricks when you go out to play."
Jingjing: "It's true, it's true. It's been a long time since the summer vacation is over and we haven't gotten together."
"Sister Xue, don't get me wrong, Chen Ling and I are not the same person." Xiao Zhao, the second and fifth child, said carelessly: "I just passed by to get free drinks, don't say anything, just order something to drink first...
Is there any water in which wolfberry and Codonopsis pilosula are soaked? I’ll drink it to warm my stomach first.”
"Fuck you, come here to find wolfberry water to drink, why don't you go to heaven?"
Several friends made jokes for a while, seeming to intend to bring this topic to light. Gu Guanxue saw the intentions of these people, smiled and did not expose their intentions, but continued:
"Okay, Xiao Zhao, you can add money and ask the boss to make some drinks. Do you have any drinks when you have enough money?"
"That makes sense!"
"Then I'll go...what do you guys want to drink?"
"Of course it's because of the alcohol. It's been a long time since I've been out to get together. Today, I called the driver and took me directly back to the school dormitory."
"Why don't you just sleep on the curb? You can save on the driving fee."
"Then why don't you just want me to die?" Xiao Liu said angrily: "Xiao Zhao, are you speaking in human language?"
"Hey, speaking of being impersonal, I recently discovered a particularly strange habit of Xiao Liu..."
"What habit?"
"..."
Perhaps it was because it was rare for old friends to come out to get together. Gu Guanxue just held a cup and propped up her chin while watching them chat with a smile. Occasionally when she swayed slightly, the shining silver snowflakes in her ears followed.
Shake gently.
Seeing that Xuebao behaved completely different from his usual behavior at gatherings, Chen Ling couldn't help but become anxious. She quickly winked at Xiao Zhao and signaled him to stop talking about the topic.
You are still talking nonsense there! Didn’t you realize that Xiaoxue just looked at us and didn’t talk to us?
Xiao Zhao, the legendary leader, received the gesture from Chen Ling's eyes and immediately recalled the great mission he had been given before he came. He quickly changed the subject and said: "Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for so long, Sister Xue, what have you been busy with...
"
"Me? I'm not busy with anything." Gu Guanxue took a sip of wine and said with a smile, "What do you think I should be busy with?"
As if they noticed something in Gu Guanxue's words, the momentum of Chen Ling and the other four people unconsciously weakened a bit, especially when Xiao Zhao was stared at by Xuebao like this. It didn't take long for his mentality to collapse. He just wanted to do something.
Chen Ling immediately stepped on him hard under the table with quick eyes and quick hands.
Xiao Zhao:???
Gu Guanxue saw the little confrontation between the two, and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously. She waved her hand and said to Chen Ling, who was busy clearing away the bugs in the team:
"Okay, he didn't betray you... I can guess why you are looking for me at this time. It has nothing to do with Xiao Zhao."

When Chen Ling heard this, she reluctantly let go of her feet and looked at Xuebao with uneasiness in her eyes: "Xiaoxue..."
"Don't say so much...how did you...know the news?"
