Qi Taiguo sat on the stone slabs under the eaves, holding a cigarette in his hand, staring into the vast swirling snowflakes in a daze.
Suddenly, his shoulder was pushed by someone. Looking up, it was Cheng Su.
Wrapping her arms around herself, she said, "Why are you sitting out here in the cold wind? Either go back to your family's home or come inside to sleep."
Qi Taiguo said, "I won't go back," and pulled her down beside him. "Keep me company for a while, will you?"
"It's still snowing, I don't want to freeze to death out here," Cheng Su sniffled.
Qi Taiguo pulled her into his embrace, wrapping her with his coat and body, and said, "You're not cold now, are you?"
Indeed, it was quite warm.
Cheng Su cozily settled into his arms and said, "Don't think that because of this, I'll go back home with you. I've said it, I'm staying with my parents these days."
"Alright," Qi Taiguo's chin rested on her head as he asked, "Susu, are you really mad at me, blaming me?"
