It’s Colder Today

"Where to go?" He Sui asked her while waiting for others to get in the car.

Shiyun had nowhere else to go except her dormitory. After she reported the address of her dormitory, she fell silent for a long time.

He Sui entered the school's address into the navigation system, and the car slowly drove out of the parking lot: "It's miserable for you to be alone in the dormitory on New Year's Eve."

Shi Yun turned the back of her head to him: "Yes, then you can throw me under the bridge, there are homeless people there."

"Tsk." He Sui gasped, "That's not what I meant."

But he had no other way, and he had no place for Shi Yun to stay.

The road was slippery in the snow, and considering that Shi Yun couldn't take the express train, He Sui's car drove very slowly. There was a security pendant hanging on the car, along with a photo of him and a girl.

The only sound in the car was the navigation announcement. Jiangling Campus was about to arrive. The female voice in the navigation reminded him that he was still two and a half kilometers away from his destination.

Just as the mechanical female voice disappeared, Shi Yun heard the driver calling her name.

"Shiyun."

He Sui looked ahead: "If a person carries too much past, he will not move forward. They don't want you to live like this."

The car turned into the dormitory area, surrounded by only street lights. The leaves turned black at night and swayed in the wind.

He Sui sent her downstairs to the dormitory, got out of the car and took her suitcase out of the trunk.

She didn't say goodbye, she carried her suitcase and walked to the door of the dormitory building.

Shi Yun stood in the dark campus, He Sui had already left.

The dormitory aunt didn’t even know where she was today. The surroundings are quiet, even the snow falling is silent. Winter is really bad, the world is quiet.

Taking out the access card from his pocket, Shi Yun suddenly thought of Wei Congying at the hot pot restaurant yesterday.

He even joked at that time, 'If you and your uncle quarrel, the dormitory is too deserted, why don't you come and join me'.

His words rang in her head. After Shiyun hesitated for a moment, she put the access card she had just taken out of her pocket back into her pocket. She took out her mobile phone from another jacket pocket with her frozen hands.

I found Wei Songying's phone number.

-

Wei Congying, Lin Fang and the others came out to play cards.

When he received the call, he had just picked up his golden eyebrows and was sitting in the heater wearing a thin sweatshirt with his sleeves pulled down to his elbows.

The mobile phone placed nearby vibrated first, and then the phone rang. Looking at the call note, he forgot for a moment that there were three losers in the box: "Hello."

As soon as he said "Hello", he heard Lin Fang greeting several other people. The three of them had a perfect understanding.

The feminine voice came out very tacitly.

It's so boring, but every time I see it, it's so fun.

Wei Congying took his cell phone away and scolded them: "Get out of here."

As he spoke, he stood up and walked outside the box.

When the person came out of the box, he realized that it was snowing outside. The street lights along the street were all on. He was standing on the balcony of the balcony on the eighth floor. A small lamp was on the balcony. He could see snowflakes falling in front of his eyes. It was dark downstairs, and the snowflakes were like goose feathers falling into the abyss.

The person on the other end of the phone asked him, "Where are you?"

It was just four words, but Wei Zong could tell that she was not feeling well.

He put his hand on the snow-covered armrest, pinched the snow casually, formed small balls and threw them downstairs: "What's wrong?"

"Where are you?"

The person on the other end of the phone did not answer, but repeated the previous question.

"Lin Fang and I were playing cards in Haiyue." Wei Zong answered truthfully, but the emotion in Shi Yun's voice was wrong, "Where are you?"

Shi Yun: "Downstairs in the dormitory."

From Haiyue to the downstairs of Shiyun's dormitory, Wei Zongying compressed the half-hour drive into twenty minutes. Thanks to the lack of people on the streets at this time of day.

When the car lights came from around the corner, Shi Yun sat on the suitcase, staring blankly at the night wind. A lot of snow fell on her body.

The branches of a tree next to her finally couldn't bear the weight of the snowflakes, and the leaves fell from them. She was like a snowman, motionless.

Wei Zongying got out of the car and walked over, and then she slowly got up from the suitcase.

Every joint in her body seemed to be frozen, and her movements were very slow.

Street lamps hidden in the camphor trees illuminated their surroundings.

Wei Zongying looked at her and suddenly felt like she was a lost child.

With tears in her eyes, if he didn't come, she might have to cry alone in the snow. Even more pitiful than the little match girl, so pitiful.

There was snow on her hair and clothes. Wei Zongying raised her hand to brush it gently. She ignored the suitcase and lowered her head to get into his arms.

At that moment, Wei Songying suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was good that he was here.

The chill of the winter night enveloped her, and Wei Songying raised his arms to hug her, feeling that she was so cold. His chin was pressed against her forehead, the hand holding her tightened, and his voice was very soft: "What's wrong?"

The person in his arms was silent for several seconds before speaking: "I had a fight with my dad."

A not too unexpected answer.

Wei Zong put a cup of hot tea in the car. He didn't know how he was brought out with the teacup and teapot with the logo of Haiyue Mansion.
