It snowed heavily all night. When he got up in the morning, Zhang Mingyang said that this was a snowfall specially made by the city to welcome him.

"Stop being so pretty, it's obviously to welcome me home." Xia Xingruo retorted.

Snow is just snow, it will fall no matter who comes, but in the eyes of different people, it has different artistic conceptions.

While her junior classmate went out to buy breakfast, Xia Xingruo began to choose the clothes to wear when going out today. When she was the only one left in the room, her eyes focused on the other bed.

Although they chose a standard room, the single bed is large and can sleep two people.

Last night, the reserved senior sister had been waiting for her junior classmate to turn off the lights and sleep on her bed with a pillow. She struggled pretendingly for a while, but in the end her refusal was ineffective. She said again: "I really can't do anything to you," and then hugged him.

Falling asleep with a human-shaped pillow is satisfying just thinking about it.

But she waited all night until the sound of even breathing came from the bed next door.

The junior didn't snore, and his sleeping posture was very well-behaved, lying flat on the bed motionless.

Xia Xingruo wanted to take the initiative to pick up the pillow and sleep on it several times, but in the end he couldn't muster the courage and stayed in a stalemate all night.

She woke up this morning out of breath, and it took her a while to fall asleep last night.

Why do you feel now that your junior fellow student is a gentleman and she is the female gangster?

She put down the clothes in her hands and stood beside her junior's bed. She only hesitated for a moment, then fell on the bed, buried her head in the quilt covered by her junior and took a deep breath. The quilt was filled with his good smell.

After doing this action, Xia Xingruo suddenly felt embarrassed again, hugging the quilt and started rolling on the bed.

In the end, she was not satisfied, so she simply lay down on her junior student's pillow and covered her head with the quilt.

Xia Xingruo didn't sleep well last night. There was still the residual warmth of his junior's body in the bed. Surrounded by the warmth, sleepiness flooded into his brain.

But just for a moment, Xia Xingruo quickly pulled off the quilt, opened his eyes and looked at the door of the room, as if he was frightened.

She realized that the shop where she asked her junior to buy steamed buns was right across the street. Calculating the time, he should be back soon.

Lifting the quilt, Xia Xingruo stood up quickly. She was afraid that her junior would find that the shape of the quilt was different from when he left, so she folded the quilts on both beds with a guilty conscience, and also made the bed. She did all the cleaning work.

.

After doing all this, there was a knock on the door.

"Can't we just let the cleaners come and clean up later?" Zhang Mingyang walked into the room and found that the two beds had been laid out very neatly by Sister Ruoruo.

"The kindergarten teacher taught us that the first thing to do when we get up in the morning is to fold the quilt!" Xia Xingruo said righteously.

"Shouldn't you open your eyes first?" Zhang Mingyang joked. He put the breakfast he bought on the table and opened it: "Let's eat steamed buns."

The hotel provides breakfast, but on the plane, Sister Ruoruo was saying that the first breakfast must be meat buns stuffed with vermicelli.

Zhang Mingyang never expected that vermicelli would one day become stuffing for steamed buns.

Xia Xingruo sat down at the table and stopped worrying about whether to fold the quilt first or open her eyes when getting up. Anyway, it was just an excuse she made up casually.

She picked up the bun and took a bite, feeling very satisfied.

What she misses most when she is outside is definitely the food in her hometown. There are a lot of food in Linjiang, but they are all too bland for her, and it took her a long time to get used to them.

Zhang Mingyang also picked up the bun and took a bite.

This was the first time he ate steamed buns stuffed with vermicelli. Although the texture was strange, it was not unpalatable. Compared with Linjiang's small and exquisite buns, the buns in his hand were very big and he felt he would be full after eating just one.

Before departure, Sister Ruoruo specially reminded him that he could buy two instead of one cage.

After finishing breakfast in the room, the two of them got dressed and prepared to go.

"I just came back from outside, it's not cold at all." Zhang Mingyang reminded.

Xia Xingruo was wearing a thick white down jacket, a mask on her face, and a scarf around her neck, covering her face tightly.

After listening to what her junior said, not only did she not take off these things, she even took out sunglasses from her bag and put them on her face.

"I told my parents that we only have three days to go on vacation, and we will tell them after we buy the tickets." Xia Xingruo explained: "So it is necessary to disguise."

She stood in front of the full-length mirror and covered herself so tightly that even her biological mother would not be able to recognize her unless she got closer.

"It can't be such a coincidence, right?"

Zhang Mingyang thought that it was probably the first time Sister Ruoruo lied to a boy about her family, so she was a little too nervous.

The city they are in now is very large, it is also the provincial capital, with several districts, and today is a working day. How can they just bump into each other?

"They have a lot of eyes, so they can nip things in the bud." Xia Xingruo didn't explain too much. After packing up, he took the hand of his schoolmate and walked out of the room.

It was very cold outside, so she put her hand into his pocket. This was her favorite way of holding hands in winter.

If her parents knew that she was coming back now, she would have no choice but to go home and not stay with her juniors at night.

After they finish playing, take the juniors home.

…

When it comes to traveling to Northeast China in winter, there are only four things you can do: see the snow, see the ice, play in the snow, and play with the ice.

The first stop for the two of them was the Ice and Snow World.

It was just in time for the winter vacation, and there were many people in the Ice and Snow World. Most of them were parents with their children. Xia Xingruo came every year when she was a child.

After she grew up, she rarely came back. After all, it was the same thing every year and there was nothing new. However, it was a place that outsiders specialized in. Many travel guides recommended Ice and Snow World.

As if to coincide with their trip, although it snowed all night last night, the sun was shining brightly today, shining brightly on the snow.

"Shining" is not only an adjective, but also a physical term.

The sun was shining so brightly on the snow that Zhang Mingyang couldn't open his eyes. Fortunately, Sister Ruoruo had prepared sunglasses for him in advance.

Entering the park, he was also surprised by the spectacular sight in front of him. This was the first time he saw a park built on ice and snow.

Zhang Mingyang is looking at the scenery, and Xia Xingruo is looking at Zhang Mingyang.

She looked at her junior's expression and knew she was in the right place today. The silver-white world would surely shock everyone who had never seen it before.

Xia Xingruo took his juniors to experience each project.

These were all things she had played with when she was a child, and she should have been tired of them long ago, but she was still very happy.

What matters is not the scenery, but the people around you.

After walking around the Ice and Snow World in the morning, she took her juniors to ski in the afternoon.

Ever since she got together with her junior, she always thought that her junior knew everything and could do anything. But once she arrived at the ski resort, Xia Xingruo finally found something that only she could do and his junior couldn't.

She also became a teacher and began to teach her students how to ski.

Zhang Mingyang learned quickly. By the time the ski resort was about to close, he could already keep up with Xia Xingruo's speed in the novice course.

"Let's go eat stew in an iron pot together." Xia Xingruo suggested after coming out of the ski resort.

They were out all day today, and they went to have a hot iron pot stew in the evening.

"Chicken stewed with mushrooms?"

"Of course!" Xia Xingruo took out her mobile phone, which contained the phone numbers of several iron pot stew restaurants she used to go to: "I'll book one now and eat right away when we go there."

While skiing in the afternoon, her phone had been locked in the cabinet and she hadn't looked at it. Before she unlocked her phone, she saw the breathing light flashing continuously.

Just as she was thinking about who was contacting her, she turned on her phone and instantly saw a dozen missed calls.

Xia Xingruo's heart skipped a beat because she saw the note on the missed call was "Mom."

A bad premonition arose in her heart.

Normally, she would not be afraid. She would just say she overslept during a nap and muted her phone. I just saw it. It's not like this has never happened before.

[To be honest, I have been using Yeguoyuedu to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. Yeguoyuedu is available for Android and Apple.]

But now she is playing outside with her schoolmates, and even lied to her parents that she was not back.

With a hint of luck, Xia Xingruo dialed the phone.

Mom's ringtone is a sweet classic old song, but now it's not sweet at all to Xia Xingruo's ears, but a bit harsh.

The song rang for a long time before the other party finally picked up the phone.

Xia Xingruo said cautiously: "Hello?"

There was no mother's voice on the other end of the phone, but a man's voice.

"Where are you?" This is the first sentence.

Just by saying this, Xia Xingruo felt a chill spread from his brain to his whole body.

Even if the other person only said three words, she still recognized that it was her father's voice.

Before Xia Xingruo could reply, the other party quickly said the second sentence: "We are now in the hotel where you are staying."

This sentence seemed to have sentenced her to death, shattering her last illusion.

What she wanted to say was suppressed again, and any explanation now was in vain.

"We're waiting for you here."

After hearing this sentence, only one word came out of Xia Xingruo's mouth: "Yeah."

The person on the other end seemed to know that she wouldn't say anything more and hung up the phone after hearing the response.
