A thin young girl was curled up on a sofa sized bed. A blanket that wasn't very thick was tightly wrapped around the girl. Beside the girl was a very exquisite scarf that had a familiar smell.
"Xiao Xiao, are you sure you don't want to go back with me?”Xiang Mu Chun's words echoed in Li Xiaoxiao's ears. Li Xiaoxiao wanted to go home. She wanted to go home to eat the tofu dumplings made by the nanny. She wanted to go home to talk to the old butler and listen to his stories about her childhood. Li Xiaoxiao wanted to go home, she wanted to go home…She wanted to go home to see her father and see the photo that was hidden in the attic. The picture had the gentlest face in the world.
"Li Qing…No, it should be Xiao Xiao. Have you decided?”Zhang Ya pushed open the narrow door. Li Xiaoxiao sat up on the bed and lowered her eyes, remaining silent.
"Do you want to go back?" Zhang Ya looked at Li Xiaoxiao's expression and could not help but feel sorry for her. Li Xiaoxiao nodded.
"I want to go home. My dad hasn't come back yet. I can't go home. He doesn't know that I'm not home yet.”Li Xiaoxiao raised her head and looked straight into Zhang Ya's eyes. Zhang Ya turned her head away from Li Xiaoxiao." Do you know that I don't want you to leave…"
Li Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment before she smiled." I know…I always knew…"
"Xiaoxiao, you know?" Zhang Ya paused and probed. " I know…I always knew that you like me…" Li Xiaoxiao looked at Zhang Ya calmly. Zhang Ya smiled bitterly and said," Xiaoxiao, do you feel that I'm very disgusting now? I'm a pervert…"
" No... It's just that the gender I like is different... Why would I find you disgusting..." Li Xiaoxiao said with a smile, her big eyes staring at Zhang Ya with sincerity.
You don't mind being gay?"
"Why should I mind? I don't think it's a big deal…"
"Then let's be together…"
"This…can't…"
" You still mind…" Zhang Ya smiled bitterly as she looked at Li Xiaoxiao's pitiful eyes.
" It's not that I hate gays. I'm just waiting for an ending that belongs to me…" Li Xiaoxiao looked out the window at the pure white scenery, her eyes revealing a trace of warmth.
"Which boy came to look for you…You like him, and he likes you too. Then why didn't you leave with him?”Zhang Ya had a rough idea of what was going on, and she looked at Li Xiaoxiao with even more certainty. That boy was very good-looking and was very compatible with Li Xiaoxiao. Thinking of this, Zhang Ya smiled bitterly. That's right... She was a person with psychological problems. How could she let a healthy person sacrifice himself for her?
"Li Xiaoxiao, you should leave. Go find someone who can give you happiness. This is the ending you deserve.”Zhang Ya looked at the snow and Li Xiaoxiao, who had fallen to such a sorry state. Li Xiao Xiao was the most beautiful girl she had ever seen, just like how Xiang Mu Chun was the most beautiful boy she had ever seen. Zhang Ya had fallen in love with Li Xiaoxiao ever since she saw her braving the blizzard to come here. She had a pair of beautiful big eyes that looked very clear. She was very fair, and her skin had the color of cherry blossoms. Her voice was as smooth as milk and as sweet as those delicious pastries.
Zhang Ya liked her at first sight. Li Xiaoxiao also knew how this girl felt about her. She could only treat her as a friend. Homosexuality was not uncommon in this society. It was just that Li Xiaoxiao did not expect that there would be a day where a girl would like her deeply.
" Zhang Ya... I..." Li Xiaoxiao slowly opened her mouth, and an awkward expression appeared on her face.
" Xiaoxiao, I know you like the boy who came here that day…I don't have any expectations…" Zhang Ya smiled bitterly as she walked out of this pitiful place. He did not turn back.
Li Xiaoxiao looked at Zhang Ya's back and felt even more helpless.
In the end, Li Xiaoxiao still left, leaving this small city. It was a small, pitiful, and extremely poor city.
She returned to the familiar city. She carried her luggage that barely had anything and looked at the bustling place. The place was brightly lit and bustling with noise and excitement. Li Xiaoxiao was familiar with everything here. Li Xiaoxiao didn't say goodbye to Zhang Ya when she left the small city. She just left quietly without even leaving a letter behind. She did not know if she would meet Zhang Ya again in the future, but she knew that she would face something unexpected again.
"Hello?"
" Hello... I'm back..." Li Xiaoxiao walked out of the crowded train station and looked at all kinds of people passing by. There was an indescribable feeling in his eyes. It was as if he was facing death unflinchingly, but also like the pride of a king returning to welcome the endless sea of people.
"Xiao Xiao, you still came back…I knew that you wouldn't really leave this place.”A familiar voice sounded in Li Xiaoxiao's ears.
" Yeah…I only realized after I left that I still have so much attachment to this city…It really doesn't feel good to leave home. Every day, I have to do things that I've never done before, but I have no choice…" Li Xiaoxiao looked at the frostbite on her hand and smiled.
The man frowned and held Li Xiaoxiao's hand. Looking at the frostbite on her hand, tears wet her eyelashes and rolled out of her eyes. "What did you do to yourself?”
"I did something that I had never done before and let myself experience life.”Li Xiaoxiao pulled her hand back and wiped the tears of the sobbing girl. "Silly girl, don't cry. Aren't I back now…"
Huo Mian 'er raised his head and smiled through his tears. He nodded heavily. He held Li Xiaoxiao's hand." Let's go."”
Along the way, Hu Ao 'er gently rubbed the scars on Li Xiaoxiao's hand, feeling the process of them coming to this hand that was once as white as a green onion.
Seeing Li Xiaoxiao's heart ache and her thin and haggard appearance, he couldn't hold it in anymore. Li Xiaoxiao said,"Nao 'er, you're not dead yet. Why are you always crying…"
Huo Mian shook his head. He didn't say anything and just squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying. " It's so ugly…" Li Xiaoxiao smiled and touched her short hair.
Ye Xi was waiting for the two girls at the exit of the train station. There was a similarly thin boy in the car. The boy had a face that the girl thought was the most beautiful in the world. The boy in the car looked out of the window, his burning gaze locked onto the figures in the crowd. However, when the figure she was looking forward to slowly appeared, she quickly got out of the car and ran away in a panic. Ye Xi looked at the youth who seemed to have gone mad. A bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but he did not stop him.
"Ye Xi…"
"Xiao Xiao…"
" Long time no see…" The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
"Xiang Muchun?" Li Xiaoxiao looked around, a little disappointed.
"Xiang Muchun had something on today and didn't come. He asked me to pick you up." Ye Xi looked at the young man hiding behind the bus stop in the distance, and the timidity in the young man's eyes, and slowly spoke.
The girl got into the car with a smile, but the smile on her lips became fainter. Only then did the youth's hidden figure slowly reveal itself. The girl had already noticed everything through the rearview mirror, but she said to Ye Xi," Let's go…"
Nao Er fell asleep in Li Xiaoxiao's arms. Li Xiaoxiao looked at the snow outside the car window." Ye Xi, it's snowing so heavily outside. Xiang Muchun hastened to get out of the car without even taking his umbrella. If the snow gets heavier later, will his small body be able to withstand it?"”Ye Xi was stunned for a moment and said," It's okay. He will go back on his own…" Ye Xi really couldn't understand the current relationship between Xiang Muchun and Li Xiaoxiao. What was going on? Why did it become like this?
Xiang Muchun stood in the snow like a stone statue. He completely ignored the snow that was clinging to his clothes.
Xiang Muchun watched the car drive away and silently said in his heart,"I'm sorry…"
He felt that he had let Li Xiaoxiao down. He did not even dare to see her. Looking at her current state, Xiang Muchun felt that even if he died 10,000 times, it wouldn't be enough. She still remembered Xiang Mu Chun's birthday when she was young. Li Xiaoxiao asked Mu Chun,"Xiang Muchun, what gift do you like?”Xiang Mu Chun said,"As long as it's from Qing 'er, I like anything."”
Li Xiaoxiao blinked her big eyes and pouted. "Then how about I give you three thousand beautiful women?”Her small face was filled with jealousy.
"It's fine if you promise me alone. Do you want to promise yourself?”Xiang Muchun's good-looking face had a roguish smile.
"If I promise you, will you take good care of me?”Li Xiaoxiao tugged at the corner of her clothes and said with a red face.
"Definitely! I'd rather let the world down than you! If I don't take good care of you, I'll die ten thousand times over.”Little Xiang Mu Chun straightened his back with a serious expression.
Li Xiaoxiao smiled happily.
Every time Xiang Muchun thought about it, every time he saw Li Xiaoxiao like this, he felt extremely guilty.
" Xiang Muchun…" Just as the young man was still motionless in the wind and snow, an umbrella was held over his head, shielding him from the heavy snow and the sadness that filled the sky.
"Xiang Muchun…"
"Xiaoxiao…you…"
"Don't ask me why I'm back. The reason is because there's a fool standing in the snow and doesn't know how to open an umbrella.”
Xiang Muchun took a step forward and hugged Li Xiaoxiao tightly, his eyes filled with gentleness. "Xiaoxiao, do you blame me?"
"I blame you…How can I not blame you? I'm back, why are you hiding?" Li Xiaoxiao wrapped her arms around Xiang Muchun's waist, feeling that this youth had lost weight again.
" I'm afraid that you'll blame me for not protecting you well…" Xiang Muchun was like a child who had made a mistake. Li Xiaoxiao smiled and said," Your IQ must have hit a tree…Aren't I fine? Why are you acting like Nao 'er?"
Xiang Muchun regained his usual expression and looked at Li Xiaoxiao with a serious expression." Come home with me."”
" Okay, but I want to go back to the Li family first…" Li Xiaoxiao's tone became heavy in an instant. Xiang Mu Chun turned around." Mm."
