The winter in F City is very cold. Starting from the end of November, it snowed for two consecutive months. The weather was freezing and the average temperature was minus seven or eight degrees Celsius.

Two days before the winter vacation, I caught up with Chu Xijin on a business trip to the UK. The driver brought the New Year greetings back to the villa. A blizzard was roaring outside the house, and he was breathing white air. He rubbed his hands and waved to the car.

"Uncle Li, thank you for your hard work!"

Uncle Li smiled and shook his head: "Sir, please come in quickly. It's cold outside, but don't catch a cold."

After watching the car leave, he was the only one in Nuo Da's villa, which seemed particularly empty. He Nian reluctantly moved his luggage upstairs, fell directly on the big bed, and stared at the ceiling in a daze for a while.

After more than ten days of classes at school, I finally made it through the holidays. My husband was on a business trip for a week, and the two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time.

The phone vibrated and He Minglan called. It was approaching the New Year's Eve. She wanted her son to return to the inner city early. She sent a red envelope to buy tickets in advance for the New Year. She chatted about some homely things and was already buying New Year's goods. She bought a lot of delicious food. Yes, the couple looked forward to his return.

After hanging up the phone, He Nian opened the ticket purchasing software. The tickets were indeed very crowded. When he scrolled down, almost all seats were full. Only the last two high-speed rail tickets were refunded by others. He quickly chose the one with the later time. .

Next Wednesday, 15:25.

There are still five days left.

His mood was even lower during the New Year greetings. If he thought about it, he might have to go back to the inner city before his husband came back.

The sky outside the window gradually darkened, and his stomach growled in protest. He Nian ran to the kitchen and cooked a bowl of egg noodles. After drinking the hot soup, his whole body warmed up.

The study was extremely quiet. During the twenty-day holiday, on average, there were almost five or six test papers to write every day. Apart from the free time, it was actually no different from school.

The street lights outside were on, and looking out of the floor-to-ceiling windows, snowflakes were swirling and falling lightly, covering the branches with a vast whiteness.

He Nian stood up and put his hands on the glass. They were a little cold, but his eyes were bright. It rarely snowed in the city. He took a photo and sent it to his husband. After waiting for a while and no reply, he put away his phone and went into the bathroom.

When getting a change of clothes, He Nian stood in the closet and hesitated for a long time. Finally, like a thief, he took a large-size shirt that didn't belong to him.

After taking a shower, the fatigue all over my body seemed to dissipate, leaving only a faint feeling of sleepiness.

He Nian dried his hair and fell limply on the soft big bed. After struggling for a while, he put on his slippers and moved the Totoro doll to the master bedroom, so that he wouldn't be too lonely.

He lay on the white belly of Totoro, grabbed the phone and pulled it a few times. He fell asleep and couldn't help but underestimate it in a low voice.

"No reply yet..."

There was a faint smell of white sandalwood and cedar lingering in his nose. He couldn't help but lower his head and smell it. He closed his eyes and carefully twisted the fabric on his body with his fingers.
