Small Snowflakes and Big Ice Cubes
Chapter 7
Seeing that the other party was about to turn around and leave, the senior uncle couldn't help calling out to him: "Master Bing Lingshi..."
Stared at by those indifferent silver eyes, he took a deep breath and stammered, "That, that child...has never experienced any hardships since he was a child. —”
Tried again and again, the word "cheat" stuck in my throat, and I couldn't squeeze it out.
Hearing such intermittent words, the other party didn't know if he understood what he meant, but he seemed to think of something suddenly, "Ah, I almost forgot..." He reached out and took out an object from his pocket and handed it over, "This is For you."
"This, this is?" The senior uncle had a serious look on his face, and quickly stepped forward, ready to take it with both hands.
I don't know what I thought of, but at this moment, there was a slight smirk on that indifferent face, the corners of the colorful mouth seemed to be hooked, and the words were very clear:
"My dowry."
"..."
The senior uncle shook his hand halfway out, and then retracted it.
The other party didn't seem to care about his reaction, but just threw the box into his arms casually, and was about to go out as soon as he turned around: "This trip is in a hurry, and I didn't bring enough money with me. It will take him a few days to pay for this." I bought it with my salary...I will make up for it later."
Catching the things in a hurry, the senior uncle watched him go away with straight eyes. It took a long time to finally come back to his senses, and shouted: "...do you know where he is?"
—Do I need to tell you?
After all, that kid has been hiding in the same place since he was a child and lost his temper, without exception.
The figure didn't stop turning its head at its feet, and the tail of its long silver hair quickly disappeared to the other end of the corridor. Only the ending of the words came calmly and coolly:
"I'll find him."
******
Mr. Big Ice Cube finally found a child who was making trouble in a remote corner of the backyard of this house.
"It's not nice to meet someone...not my lover...emotional liar...big pig's trotters...the love of the past few days has been paid by mistake..."
Xiao Xuehua sat alone on a low wall half a person's height, kicking her legs once and for all, deeply grieving.
Big Ice Cube held back his amused smile and walked over: "...what are you talking about while hiding here all by yourself?"
The boy turned his head sullenly, and said angrily: "...I don't want to talk to you."
Big Ice Cube took his hand and shook it: "Please, just take care of me."
"……childish."
Xiaoxuehua snorted, accusing seriously: "You lied to me."
"How did I lie to you?"
Hearing his still downplaying and unrepentant tone, the young man immediately glared at him fiercely: "Don't you know how to reflect on yourself? You have lied to me a lot!"
The other party pondered for a while when he heard the words, and finally sighed: "Okay... I did lie to you about one thing."
With an expression on her face, Xiao Xuehua raised her chin towards him as a signal.
At this point, Big Ice Cube began to sincerely repent: "I told you before that only my destined partner can take off that mask for me. I actually made it up...it's just an ordinary mask."
"I guessed it... a scheming ghost..." The young man pouted and muttered, motioning for him to continue.
As a result, after waiting for a long time, I didn't wait for the second sentence.
"..."
Xiaoxuehua's face turned red with anger: "It's gone!?"
The other party still looked at him innocently: "I really can't think of anything else..." Seeing that he was going to be furious, he softened his tone again, "Smart little Snow Flower, give me some Is it a good reminder?"
"..." After being coaxed for a while, Xiaoxuehua was filled with anger, like a balloon with a small hole pierced by a needle, and it deflated silently.
He tried his best to maintain his momentum, and complained: "You said before that you were also a snow boy..."
Big Ice Cube took his hand and smiled slightly: "There is nothing wrong with this statement. I am indeed born as a snow boy. Including the contemporary winter gods, I am also a snow boy in essence."
Swap the concept!
Although Xiaoxuehua was not convinced, she somehow felt that she couldn't refute it, so she had to start another topic: "You clearly said that your spiritual test score is only D—..."
Big Ice Cube tilted his head slightly and thought for a while: "Actually, the Archives Bureau of the Spiritual Examination did not record my results back then, but if you want, I will ask them to get me a copy some other day, record it as a D—that's it. "
Bandit logic!
Little Snow Flower tried her best to hold back the fury in her heart, and took a deep breath: "You also said that you can't even make snowflakes..."
Hearing this, the other party just raised his brows solemnly: "Then you must have misremembered, what I said was—'No one taught me how to make snowflakes'."
—Because he doesn't need to be taught at all.
"..."
Word games!
Slick tongue!
Big fart. Eyes!
The more he listened, the more he felt that he was being tricked. The young man was a little annoyed, and finally said anxiously: "You, you said that you want to be with me forever, but in fact, in a few days, you will go back to the North Pole by yourself! And said you didn't lie to me!"
After listening to his call, he finished yelling, and the other party finally stopped responding and just looked at him quietly.
…From the first time they met, Xiao Xuehua felt from the bottom of her heart that these were really a pair of very beautiful silver eyes.
In the past few days, every time he was stared at by these eyes, he felt as if he was being illuminated by the gentle silvery white moonlight.
But after all the truth was revealed, in the end, maybe only the initial impression was accurate—the color that he mistook for moonlight was actually thick ice, right?
After waiting for a while, the person in front of him still did not deny it, even if it was as forceful as before.
Xiao Xuehua silently flattened her lips, her eyes and nose were slightly red, she lowered her eyes and stopped looking at him.
The big ice cube stared deeply at him for a long time, finally sighed slightly, stretched out his hand and gently scraped the bridge of the boy's straight nose:
"……fool."
Instead of holding the palm of his finger together, he held his lowered cheek. He forced the boy to look at him, as if he wanted him to look into his heart:
"What makes you think that after waiting for so many years and crossing half the world to finally make you mine——at this moment, I would still be willing to leave alone?"
Several words in these words were quite puzzling, and Xiao Xuehua couldn't turn her head around: "...what, what?"
The other party didn't give him too much time to think carefully, and the conversation suddenly changed, and he unhurriedly launched an offensive: "Still, you want to stay here, don't you want to come with me?"
"..."
The boy's eye circles were still a little red, and he looked at him blankly, unable to react.
Gently stroking the smooth cheek skin with his fingers, those silver eyes narrowed slightly with a bit of inscrutability and meaning:
"How did you say those words before?"
He sighed in his mouth, and began to recite the template template he heard a few minutes ago: "It's not nice to meet someone, not my lover, a liar in love, a big pig's hoof, the love of the past few days is finally paid by mistake——"
He just looked at the young man in front of him with a half-smile, and complained in a soft voice: "...I didn't expect you to be such a little snowflake, huh?"
Before Xiao Xuehua could recover, a bunch of crimes were thrown on her head one after another, and she subconsciously stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, preventing him from continuing:
"I didn't... don't slander me."
Kissing the soft palm lightly, the big ice cube hugged him off the wall like a child:
"Evened out."
The young man put his arms around his neck obediently, but he was still not convinced: "Why is it even? You obviously said something more."
"Then what should I do? I have no choice but to use actions to compensate you." As he spoke, he was about to bow his head to him.
Little Xuehua continued to cover his mouth without thinking.
"You...you want me to go back to the North Pole with you?"
The other party's words were held in the palm of his hand, and he said in a muffled voice, "Don't you want to go?"
"Uh...not at all." Xiaoxuehua's expression was a bit tangled.
Doesn't it seem too positive to say yes right away?It's as if he couldn't wait... But it would be even more strange if he didn't agree. He had mistakenly thought that the other party wanted to leave alone, and he was still sad for a long time...
After thinking about it again and again, Xiao Xuehua finally decided that she must agree to agree, but she must try her best to make herself appear more reserved, eh.
He thought for a while and said, "But, I heard that it will be very cold over there..."
——This is actually very nonsensical, because Xuetongzi is not afraid of severe cold by nature, and the low temperature environment is comfortable for them.
However, the big ice cube didn't break him through. Instead, he thought cooperatively for a while, and finally pouted his mouth on his palm.
Realizing that it was inconvenient for him to speak by covering his mouth, Xiao Xuehua also cooperatively withdrew her hand and covered her own mouth instead.
"It won't make you cold..."
Mr. Big Ice Cube held his arm tightly, as if pointing: "I promise to keep you very warm from morning till night."
Between the words, the eyes carried some unspeakable hints, like a hot dark flame, licking silently from the exposed skin.
……rogue!
Xiaoxuehua blushed and glared at him.
The first attempt ended in being molested, and he made the second reserved attempt in a low voice: "...But my master said that it is far away from here, and I have to come back to see him later, isn't it very inconvenient?"
"No." Big Ice Cube calmly and patiently reassured, "Christmas is over in the human world, and the reindeer herd has returned to the North Pole with their sleigh carts, and no matter where you want to go, you can take the sleigh cart go."
Little Xuehua was persuaded, and even felt very moved.
The big ice cube thought for a while, and then added another weight: "Over there, no one will force you to work."
"..."
Little Xuehua couldn't help but look at him longingly: "Since you've already talked about this... I, I will reluctantly agree."
The other party smiled and lowered his head again: "Can I realize my compensation now?"
"..."
The boy let go of his hand obediently.
"So nice."
After wasting so much energy for a long time, I finally got my wish and kissed him.
A soft kiss is fleeting on the corner of the mouth.
Xiao Xuehua pursed her lips, blinked her eyes, cut her mouth, and turned her head in disgust:
"……Perfunctory."
Mr. Big Ice Cube suddenly let out a muffled laugh, and pressed the body of the young boy in his arms against the wall with his backhand, taking a step closer with his feet.
"This is what you said yourself. Don't be awkward with me when you are kissed and passed out later."
The young man's face was red, and he was still trying to be brave: "Who is having a fight with you? I don't know who the one who fainted is—uh..."
The end of the words disappeared at the junction of lips and tongue, and turned into the sound of spitting water.
Xiao Xuehua vowed to fight the opponent for [-] rounds, but unfortunately her ambition was not fulfilled, she was out of breath after half a minute, and couldn't help but grabbed her long silver hair and began to struggle and flutter.
Comrade Big Ice Cube loosened him a bit, pecking and kissing him again and again, with a smirk in his silver eyes:
"Who's going to faint now? Huh?"
"..."
It took more than ten seconds to calm down, and Xiaoxuehua regained his staunch hero again. He sincerely hopes that readers will just pretend that nothing happened just now.
"you are you!"
"……so smart."
The other party sighed and pressed his forehead, his voice was slightly hoarse: "I'm about to be fainted by the little snowflake."
Extra
This year, the footsteps of the end of autumn are still lingering in the world, and the god of winter was forcibly awakened early.
According to the general situation, guests who choose such an inappropriate time to visit will be stopped by the snow boy who is in charge of guarding the door, so as not to disturb the winter god's rest.
However, the identity of this visitor today is quite special, and the Snow Boys would not dare to stop them even if they wanted to.
The honorable Lord Winter God was awakened alive in his sleep.
The air around him was so thin that he couldn't get in. He opened his eyelids inexplicably, and then realized that his whole body... was actually frozen tightly in a large piece of ice!
——That's right, it's like the kind of insect specimens sealed in rosin.
He frantically broke away from it, avoiding a certain cause of death that could become a black spot in his life. Before the God of Winter Ling had time to get angry, he raised his eyes, and the figure of the instigator bumped into his eyes in front of him, blocking his violent impulse back in an instant .
Probably because his eyes were too sad, the other party frowned and looked disgusted: "Sleep non-stop all year round, are you the reincarnation of pig essence?"
"..."
Not to mention the violence of being broken into, and even having to suffer personal attacks with vulgar language, what is the reason for it?
The God of Winter Ling tried his best to keep his expression from collapsing, and said tactfully, "Master Bing Ling... I don't know if you've ever heard such a saying that those who disturb people's dreams will be rewarded seven times."
Not only did the other party not feel ashamed or guilty when he heard the words, but he reminded him indifferently: "You are not human."
"..."
He couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "This sentence is a terrible swear word in the human world..."
The person in front of him obviously didn't have the patience to continue talking with him, so he pointed out the purpose of coming: "Stop talking nonsense. I'm here to find someone you want."
"...Ah? Who?"
The other party reached out to hand over a stack of books, his face was still calm, and only a pair of eyes were fixed on him, and there was an unusually rare blaze in the eyes that were usually cold as ice:
"The time that was promised back then has come."
Seeing his appearance, Dong Lingshen couldn't help being stunned, took the things he handed over, and before he looked down, he suddenly realized who he was referring to.
It's just because many years ago, this person in front of me also dragged a copy of Xuetongzi's resume like this, and broke into his house without warning, and his words were generally straight to the point:
"I want this child."
——Even the tone of voice and eyes are exactly the same.
So now...
If Dong Lingshen felt it, he looked down and saw a familiar name on the cover of the case book in his hand.
He stared at the photo next to him and observed carefully for a long time: "...have you grown up so soon?"
Different from human beings, the so-called adulthood of Xuetongzi only refers to the age when the use of one's spiritual power tends to be stable. As for the appearance, it has already grown up and will not change significantly.
Therefore, the face of the young man now seems to be no different from the vague impression left by the glimpse of him back then.
"Ah."
The other side responded in a calm voice, with a hint of joy and pride in his tone, like watching a young sprout that was held and protected by his own hands, and it was finally about to bear flowers after years.
"..."
This kind of nasty tone made Dong Lingshen shake his ears, and couldn't help blurting out: "Are you serious?"
The other party's gaze passed over his head coolly, as if he just listened to some nonsense and didn't even bother to respond.
The God of Winter Ling couldn't help being a little embarrassed, so he didn't have the nerve to slip out the second half of the sentence—since he really recognized him early, why did he wait for so many years?
The reason why I am embarrassed to say it is that I advised the other party with earnestness and earnestness back then, "Don't act too hastily... Be careful to scare people away... At least wait until he is an adult..."
——The person who uttered these righteous words with his own mouth was himself.
Dong Lingshen held back his guilty conscience and looked away silently.
God knew that he was just holding the idea of protecting the underage flowers under his hands from puppy love, so he just mentioned it casually, who knew that this guy actually agreed, and returned to the northern polar region without saying a word, and then in that boundless ice and snow field, It has been guarded for so many years.
Consciously, he quickly signed the original (deed) of the shoe (sale) in his hand, and then handed the things back, Dong Lingshen said dryly and vaguely: "Okay, okay...Let's take it away, take it away Well...the person is yours..."
——Get rid of this troublesome spirit as soon as possible, if he has been waiting all these years, it will be bad if he vents his anger on himself later.
It's a pity that the other party didn't leave immediately as he wished. After collecting the things, he still stayed where he was: "There is one more thing that needs to be arranged by you."
"what?"
Those silver eyes turned to the region release map hanging on the wall beside him, and his words were as calm as ice: "In the nearby cities, where does Snow Boy work the hardest?"
Although he was puzzled by this inexplicable question, Winter God still looked at the map cooperatively: "Where is the busiest...it should be City C. Well, their reports have always been the thickest. What's wrong?" ?”
"The work assignment for the new season will arrange him to go to City C."
"..."
It took him a few seconds to realize who this "he" was referring to. The Winter God looked at him strangely: "What's the reason? Aren't you going to chase him? Why do you want to drive people to suffer again in a blink of an eye?"
The other party seemed too lazy to explain, and turned around to leave: "Just do it."
The tail of long silver hair drew an arc in the air, and Dong Lingshen suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "This...isn't it? It's so old, don't you still want to make a hero to save the beauty?" ?”
The other party kept on stepping, without answering or denying.
Shocked by this guy's unexpected level of innocence, Dong Lingshen couldn't help but find it a little funny, and his confidence recovered, and he began to stand up and talk without back pain:
"Is there such a thing as chasing someone like this? The so-called freezing three feet is not a day's cold, water dripping through a stone is not a day's work, long-term love, time is the best catalyst for love, the most important thing in love is to have patience, patience ..."
He quickened his pace and successfully left those annoying nagging behind his ears.
Freezing three feet is not a day's cold... Is it?
These words rolled over silently on the tip of the tongue, and in the end there was only a slight mocking sneer on the corners of the thinned lips.
It's a pity that since he can remember, he has never been able to resonate with such words.
Even if he wants to form an ice barrier that is several feet thick and stretches for ten miles, it is a piece of cake for him.
... Not to mention long nights and many dreams.
He had waited long enough, and he had already lost Xu Xu Tuzhi's patience.
What's more, he never thought that something like love had to be catalyzed by time.From his point of view, it is clearly something that comes silently and in an instant.
Just like back then, it happened to him without warning.
-
The day he met Little Snowflake for the first time, the weather was fine, and the child was crying.
It wasn't the kind of soft whimpering and sobbing, but loud and almost arrogant wailing.
It was making his ears hurt.
That year, he received more than a dozen urgent letters one after another, asking him to rush back from the northern polar region, saying that there was an urgent matter to discuss.As a result, when he really came, the Winter God guy told him shamelessly with his old face: he was asked to come back because he wanted to ask him to invigilate the spirit test of this year's Snow Boy.
#MDZZ#
"I'm not joking with you! The recent freshman Xuetong is really lazy every time. Relying on the foundation laid by the predecessors, the number of people who come to participate in the spiritual test is getting less and less every year... You are a The spiritual pillar in their minds, help drive their self-motivation, hey!"
It sounds troublesome and uninteresting.
Seeing that he turned back ruthlessly and was about to leave, Winter God's whispered BB persevered:
"Anyway, my news has already been released. The Master Ice Commander they have been thinking about will come to invigilate them... If you don't see you in the examination room, those children line up one by one to apply to go to the northern polar region to stay and practice. I I'm not responsible—you probably don't know how many cross-domain love letters I have blocked for you over the years."
... Tsk.
On the day he met Xiaoxuehua, he finished the two rounds of invigilation for Xuetongzi, and his patience was exhausted. He immediately put the burden on the substitute invigilator, and went out to relax by himself.
The back mountain of the spiritual test examination room is separated by a long high wall, and a corridor stretches across it, with lush forests on the side, and the scenery is excellent.
It's just that I didn't expect that this remote corner had already been occupied by the first comers.
He heard his voice before seeing him, and the cries that could not be ignored came clearly.
He immediately turned around and walked back in the direction he came from.
However, that crying sound seemed to be holding a thread and carrying a small claw hook, and it persevered and lingered into his ears. Every time he took a step, he felt that he was crying more aggrieved.
Without hesitation, he walked all the way to the end of the corridor. Seeing that there was another corner and he could completely leave the cry behind him, he suddenly stopped.
... Then, with a turn in his footsteps, he walked back again.
As it got closer, the sound became clearer and clearer, and finally he stopped right below the sound source and looked up.
The wall was several feet high, and due to the angle, the face could not be seen, so only two legs could be seen hanging by the wall.
"What are you crying for?"
"Wow--!"
The other party didn't seem to notice that there was another person under the wall at all. He suddenly heard a voice, and was so frightened that he cried for a while. In the blink of an eye, it fell straight down——
He easily caught it.
The soft boy's body fell lightly in his arms.
Like catching a gust of grassy wind...
Or a piece of snow...
or a flower?
For a moment, he was slightly taken aback.
The young man managed to recover his breath from the coughing, and at this moment, a touch of white floated leisurely down from the air—at the same time, it floated into the sight of both of them.
The four eyes looked at the past at the same time, and the next moment, the boy in his arms was like a cat whose tail was pulled, the fur all over his body exploded, and he quickly grabbed the piece of paper and held it in his arms:
"Don't look!"
After he finished speaking, he seemed to think of something again, and then he lifted up the piece of paper, covering his face tightly:
"Don't even look at me!"
He silently watched the boy's series of actions: "..."
Sorry, already saw it.
——Whether it’s the dazzling red D—.
- still wet with tears.
Looking at the behavior of the other party who wanted to hide it, he couldn't help but feel a little funny-now he knows it's embarrassing, why didn't he feel shy when he howled so loudly just now?
Too lazy to expose the child's self-deception, he glanced at the spiritual examination report card held by the other party: "Little Xuehua, right?"
The side of the specific grades is facing the boy himself, but he can still see the basic information of the candidates.
The finger pinching the edge of the paper trembled, as if he wanted to reach out to cover the name, but he probably felt that it was too late, so he just gave up, only a muffled response came through the thin layer of paper:
"……what?"
He put the boy on a short branch next to him: "You are young, don't climb so high if you have nothing to do."
The other party didn't seem to appreciate it, but instead he snorted unhappily: "Who do you look down on, uncle? What's wrong with being young, it's just climbing a wall, who can fall off?"
...Then how did you get down just now?
He folded his arms and leaned against the tree trunk: "Who taught you to call 'uncle' without even seeing someone's face?"
"You talk old-fashioned, blame me?" The young man shrugged his shoulders very righteously, "It's a matter of courtesy, you can't look at me, and I won't look at you either."
... unreasonable.
"Are you the snow boy who participated in this year's spiritual test?"
"Nonsense, otherwise, would I still be here to travel?"
"..."
Every time I ask a question, the tone of the answer is extremely aggressive. It seems that the child's emotions are quite sensitive right now.
He pressed the corner of his mouth and asked knowingly, "I didn't pass the exam, so why are you hiding here and crying?"
"how is this possible!"
After conditioned reflexively refusing, Xiao Xuehua began to open her eyes and talk nonsense: "...I just lost my love."
"It's really a coincidence to specifically choose this day to lose love."
Xiao Xuehua didn't get the cold sarcasm, and he replied honestly: "I didn't pick the date... Who told that guy not to come early or late, so he just chose today?"
He listened slightly: "What do you mean? Are you still talking about a long-distance relationship?"
Across a piece of paper, I can imagine the boy rolling his eyes: "Uncle, don't you listen to gossip? This year, there is a new handsome invigilator. This is not a long-distance relationship, it is a teacher-student relationship." Love is right."
This year's new handsome invigilator: "..."
Xiao Xuehua didn't notice his strangeness at all, and Gu Zi sighed heavily.
He was really out of luck, he must have been severely teased by the ruthless giant claws of fate.
Previously, the senior uncle in the family tried to persuade him that the number of Xuetongzi who participated in the spiritual test in recent years was relatively small, and the pressure of competition was small, which was a great opportunity for him to get out of the pit!
Little Xuehua has always had soft ears, and she was convinced after a while, and she eagerly signed up for this year's spiritual test.
It turned out that I didn't expect... a disaster came from heaven.
Just one month before the official exam, news spread out of nowhere that someone would be the invigilator this year—
Then guess what, all the contemporaries around him went crazy!
Obviously, he had just personally promised him the day before that he would postpone taking the exam for a year, and try to minimize the pressure of competition for him by being loyal, but he started to read at night the next day.
The so-called plastic brotherhood is really not just talk.
As a result, the number of snow boys who took part in this spirit test in real time this year hit the highest record in history.
When he first signed up, the senior uncle gave him an estimate, saying that he should be able to get a C.
Now the results are out.
D—:)
——He has no face to go home!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and no matter what he thought it was the fault of the unknown invigilator, the boy Xiaoxuehua couldn't help but babbled and scolded this imaginary enemy who killed a thousand swords to the bottom.
"The unknown invigilator who killed a thousand swords" silently listened to the collection of cursing for a while: "... If I remember correctly, you said you liked him just now, why are you scolding him again?"
"Uh--"
The young man obviously choked for a moment: "I couldn't get what I asked for, and I hate it because of love, can't I?"
"Oh?" He asked back with great interest, "Why can't you ask for it? Have you pursued him?"
"I chased him! Just now I handed him a love letter, but he walked over without even looking at it! I spent three days writing a love letter without sleeping and eating, citing scriptures and allusions! In the end, another invigilator took it away like garbage It's gone! My heart is broken to pieces!"
——There is no doubt, the above is the cries of broken love he heard from a Xuetongzi at the same time before, and now he just recited it by learning it.
He was silent for a while, and finally replied in a low voice with some inscrutable meaning: "...Is that so."
Just chatted with a stranger for a long time inexplicably, and was finally interrupted by a grunting sound. Xiao Xuehua used one hand to carry the report card, and the other hand to cover her stomach.
Due to the pressure of the exam, he didn't eat a few bites of breakfast, and spent a lot of energy crying before, and now he feels hungry.
——Mian didn't want to go home, but unfortunately his stomach was holding him back.
"I won't talk to you anymore, I'm going home!"
Wiping away the tears that were still hanging on his face, the little Xuehua boy suddenly became mischievous, mobilized his spiritual energy and sprayed it in front of him, and jumped off the branch with a smile:
"Give it to you, uncle."
The movement caused a weak wind, accompanied by flocculent snowflakes falling down.
The boy ran away like a nimble cat, only his crisp voice remained in place——
"Just because you didn't let me wrestle just now!"
The corner of the clothes seemed to pass by his fingertips, and he subconsciously stretched out his hand, but he didn't even know what he wanted to grab. In the end, he only caught a lightly falling snowflake.
Quietly watching the young man's back gradually drifting away until he reached the end of the corridor, at that moment a thought popped into his mind, as if he felt that the other party would turn around and run back in the next second——
However, it does not.
The figure didn't stop from the beginning to the end, turned the corner without hesitation, and disappeared from sight.
His cold and calm silver eyes stared at the empty corner for a long time, then narrowed their eyes imperceptibly and silently.
There were no twittering words from the young man, and the surrounding quickly became quiet.
After a long while, he finally retracted his gaze and looked down at his fingertips, where the previous snowflake was standing upright.
As soon as he saw the specific shape of the snowflake, a few traces of smiles immediately penetrated into the cold silver eyes.
... No wonder there is only D—.
I don't know how long I watched this, but was finally interrupted by another voice: "Master Bing Lingshi—"
Probably seeing him away for too long, those guys in the examination room were worried and came out to look for him.
He raised his eyes and glanced at the faces in front of him, and finally stopped on a certain figure beside him: "I remember you received those letters from the snow boys earlier?"
The person named stepped forward cautiously, and nodded respectfully: "Yes."
"Go and find it for me. Is there a copy signed by 'Xiao Xuehua'? Bring it to me."
"……Yes."
……
The result is of course not.
When he heard the result report, he didn't feel too surprised. He just curled the corner of his mouth slightly and said softly, "Little liar..."
Ignoring the fidgeting figures in front of him, he half closed his eyelashes again.
Snowflakes made of tears...
The child probably didn't know that, for Xuetongzi, this was actually an overly intimate gesture.
The surface of the snowflake was sealed by a thin layer of ice, so even after such a long time, there was still no sign of melting.
Like a young ice butterfly, it rests silently on the fingertips, and it will shatter and disappear when it is slightly crushed.It is so weak that it can almost be ignored, but it actually exists.
Just like the thoughts that are eager to move in my heart, whether to let it spread wantonly, or to extinguish it in time, everything is still within the controllable range.
It just depends on one thought.
After a long time, he moved his fingers slightly.
In the blink of an eye, the ice butterfly shattered silently.
Only the young and incomplete snowflake remained, without the protection of the ice layer, the only fate was to melt, and in the last few seconds of survival time, it trembled pitifully in the wind.
Destined to melt, the only difference is where it melts.Want it to disappear into thin air?
--Do not.
He raised his finger and gently licked the snowflake into his mouth.
Before that, he never seemed to have thought of a problem.
What does snow taste like?
—Probably shouldn’t have a smell.
But that day, he knew for the first time that there are snowflakes in this world that are whiter and softer than wool, lighter and sweeter than sugar silk, and seem to have the sweet and soft milky smell of a young man in a trance.
Compared with the sky full of ice and snow that I watched day after day in the past, it is obviously the same crystal clear pure white, but it does not have that alienated coldness, but is soft and fragile.
...so cute it almost overwhelmed him.
As the snowflake melted on the tip of the tongue, an unknown corner of the chest seemed to collapse and melt silently, as if blown by the first ray of wind in spring.
melt……
This word is actually not that pleasant to them, but at this moment, savoring this feeling carefully, they only feel light and clear in their hearts.
After spending countless summers and autumns alone in the eternal cold winter, on that day, he finally heard his own spring heart.
Everything seems to be predestined, doomed.
Since then, ice and snow have been the only hot thing.
Stared at by those indifferent silver eyes, he took a deep breath and stammered, "That, that child...has never experienced any hardships since he was a child. —”
Tried again and again, the word "cheat" stuck in my throat, and I couldn't squeeze it out.
Hearing such intermittent words, the other party didn't know if he understood what he meant, but he seemed to think of something suddenly, "Ah, I almost forgot..." He reached out and took out an object from his pocket and handed it over, "This is For you."
"This, this is?" The senior uncle had a serious look on his face, and quickly stepped forward, ready to take it with both hands.
I don't know what I thought of, but at this moment, there was a slight smirk on that indifferent face, the corners of the colorful mouth seemed to be hooked, and the words were very clear:
"My dowry."
"..."
The senior uncle shook his hand halfway out, and then retracted it.
The other party didn't seem to care about his reaction, but just threw the box into his arms casually, and was about to go out as soon as he turned around: "This trip is in a hurry, and I didn't bring enough money with me. It will take him a few days to pay for this." I bought it with my salary...I will make up for it later."
Catching the things in a hurry, the senior uncle watched him go away with straight eyes. It took a long time to finally come back to his senses, and shouted: "...do you know where he is?"
—Do I need to tell you?
After all, that kid has been hiding in the same place since he was a child and lost his temper, without exception.
The figure didn't stop turning its head at its feet, and the tail of its long silver hair quickly disappeared to the other end of the corridor. Only the ending of the words came calmly and coolly:
"I'll find him."
******
Mr. Big Ice Cube finally found a child who was making trouble in a remote corner of the backyard of this house.
"It's not nice to meet someone...not my lover...emotional liar...big pig's trotters...the love of the past few days has been paid by mistake..."
Xiao Xuehua sat alone on a low wall half a person's height, kicking her legs once and for all, deeply grieving.
Big Ice Cube held back his amused smile and walked over: "...what are you talking about while hiding here all by yourself?"
The boy turned his head sullenly, and said angrily: "...I don't want to talk to you."
Big Ice Cube took his hand and shook it: "Please, just take care of me."
"……childish."
Xiaoxuehua snorted, accusing seriously: "You lied to me."
"How did I lie to you?"
Hearing his still downplaying and unrepentant tone, the young man immediately glared at him fiercely: "Don't you know how to reflect on yourself? You have lied to me a lot!"
The other party pondered for a while when he heard the words, and finally sighed: "Okay... I did lie to you about one thing."
With an expression on her face, Xiao Xuehua raised her chin towards him as a signal.
At this point, Big Ice Cube began to sincerely repent: "I told you before that only my destined partner can take off that mask for me. I actually made it up...it's just an ordinary mask."
"I guessed it... a scheming ghost..." The young man pouted and muttered, motioning for him to continue.
As a result, after waiting for a long time, I didn't wait for the second sentence.
"..."
Xiaoxuehua's face turned red with anger: "It's gone!?"
The other party still looked at him innocently: "I really can't think of anything else..." Seeing that he was going to be furious, he softened his tone again, "Smart little Snow Flower, give me some Is it a good reminder?"
"..." After being coaxed for a while, Xiaoxuehua was filled with anger, like a balloon with a small hole pierced by a needle, and it deflated silently.
He tried his best to maintain his momentum, and complained: "You said before that you were also a snow boy..."
Big Ice Cube took his hand and smiled slightly: "There is nothing wrong with this statement. I am indeed born as a snow boy. Including the contemporary winter gods, I am also a snow boy in essence."
Swap the concept!
Although Xiaoxuehua was not convinced, she somehow felt that she couldn't refute it, so she had to start another topic: "You clearly said that your spiritual test score is only D—..."
Big Ice Cube tilted his head slightly and thought for a while: "Actually, the Archives Bureau of the Spiritual Examination did not record my results back then, but if you want, I will ask them to get me a copy some other day, record it as a D—that's it. "
Bandit logic!
Little Snow Flower tried her best to hold back the fury in her heart, and took a deep breath: "You also said that you can't even make snowflakes..."
Hearing this, the other party just raised his brows solemnly: "Then you must have misremembered, what I said was—'No one taught me how to make snowflakes'."
—Because he doesn't need to be taught at all.
"..."
Word games!
Slick tongue!
Big fart. Eyes!
The more he listened, the more he felt that he was being tricked. The young man was a little annoyed, and finally said anxiously: "You, you said that you want to be with me forever, but in fact, in a few days, you will go back to the North Pole by yourself! And said you didn't lie to me!"
After listening to his call, he finished yelling, and the other party finally stopped responding and just looked at him quietly.
…From the first time they met, Xiao Xuehua felt from the bottom of her heart that these were really a pair of very beautiful silver eyes.
In the past few days, every time he was stared at by these eyes, he felt as if he was being illuminated by the gentle silvery white moonlight.
But after all the truth was revealed, in the end, maybe only the initial impression was accurate—the color that he mistook for moonlight was actually thick ice, right?
After waiting for a while, the person in front of him still did not deny it, even if it was as forceful as before.
Xiao Xuehua silently flattened her lips, her eyes and nose were slightly red, she lowered her eyes and stopped looking at him.
The big ice cube stared deeply at him for a long time, finally sighed slightly, stretched out his hand and gently scraped the bridge of the boy's straight nose:
"……fool."
Instead of holding the palm of his finger together, he held his lowered cheek. He forced the boy to look at him, as if he wanted him to look into his heart:
"What makes you think that after waiting for so many years and crossing half the world to finally make you mine——at this moment, I would still be willing to leave alone?"
Several words in these words were quite puzzling, and Xiao Xuehua couldn't turn her head around: "...what, what?"
The other party didn't give him too much time to think carefully, and the conversation suddenly changed, and he unhurriedly launched an offensive: "Still, you want to stay here, don't you want to come with me?"
"..."
The boy's eye circles were still a little red, and he looked at him blankly, unable to react.
Gently stroking the smooth cheek skin with his fingers, those silver eyes narrowed slightly with a bit of inscrutability and meaning:
"How did you say those words before?"
He sighed in his mouth, and began to recite the template template he heard a few minutes ago: "It's not nice to meet someone, not my lover, a liar in love, a big pig's hoof, the love of the past few days is finally paid by mistake——"
He just looked at the young man in front of him with a half-smile, and complained in a soft voice: "...I didn't expect you to be such a little snowflake, huh?"
Before Xiao Xuehua could recover, a bunch of crimes were thrown on her head one after another, and she subconsciously stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, preventing him from continuing:
"I didn't... don't slander me."
Kissing the soft palm lightly, the big ice cube hugged him off the wall like a child:
"Evened out."
The young man put his arms around his neck obediently, but he was still not convinced: "Why is it even? You obviously said something more."
"Then what should I do? I have no choice but to use actions to compensate you." As he spoke, he was about to bow his head to him.
Little Xuehua continued to cover his mouth without thinking.
"You...you want me to go back to the North Pole with you?"
The other party's words were held in the palm of his hand, and he said in a muffled voice, "Don't you want to go?"
"Uh...not at all." Xiaoxuehua's expression was a bit tangled.
Doesn't it seem too positive to say yes right away?It's as if he couldn't wait... But it would be even more strange if he didn't agree. He had mistakenly thought that the other party wanted to leave alone, and he was still sad for a long time...
After thinking about it again and again, Xiao Xuehua finally decided that she must agree to agree, but she must try her best to make herself appear more reserved, eh.
He thought for a while and said, "But, I heard that it will be very cold over there..."
——This is actually very nonsensical, because Xuetongzi is not afraid of severe cold by nature, and the low temperature environment is comfortable for them.
However, the big ice cube didn't break him through. Instead, he thought cooperatively for a while, and finally pouted his mouth on his palm.
Realizing that it was inconvenient for him to speak by covering his mouth, Xiao Xuehua also cooperatively withdrew her hand and covered her own mouth instead.
"It won't make you cold..."
Mr. Big Ice Cube held his arm tightly, as if pointing: "I promise to keep you very warm from morning till night."
Between the words, the eyes carried some unspeakable hints, like a hot dark flame, licking silently from the exposed skin.
……rogue!
Xiaoxuehua blushed and glared at him.
The first attempt ended in being molested, and he made the second reserved attempt in a low voice: "...But my master said that it is far away from here, and I have to come back to see him later, isn't it very inconvenient?"
"No." Big Ice Cube calmly and patiently reassured, "Christmas is over in the human world, and the reindeer herd has returned to the North Pole with their sleigh carts, and no matter where you want to go, you can take the sleigh cart go."
Little Xuehua was persuaded, and even felt very moved.
The big ice cube thought for a while, and then added another weight: "Over there, no one will force you to work."
"..."
Little Xuehua couldn't help but look at him longingly: "Since you've already talked about this... I, I will reluctantly agree."
The other party smiled and lowered his head again: "Can I realize my compensation now?"
"..."
The boy let go of his hand obediently.
"So nice."
After wasting so much energy for a long time, I finally got my wish and kissed him.
A soft kiss is fleeting on the corner of the mouth.
Xiao Xuehua pursed her lips, blinked her eyes, cut her mouth, and turned her head in disgust:
"……Perfunctory."
Mr. Big Ice Cube suddenly let out a muffled laugh, and pressed the body of the young boy in his arms against the wall with his backhand, taking a step closer with his feet.
"This is what you said yourself. Don't be awkward with me when you are kissed and passed out later."
The young man's face was red, and he was still trying to be brave: "Who is having a fight with you? I don't know who the one who fainted is—uh..."
The end of the words disappeared at the junction of lips and tongue, and turned into the sound of spitting water.
Xiao Xuehua vowed to fight the opponent for [-] rounds, but unfortunately her ambition was not fulfilled, she was out of breath after half a minute, and couldn't help but grabbed her long silver hair and began to struggle and flutter.
Comrade Big Ice Cube loosened him a bit, pecking and kissing him again and again, with a smirk in his silver eyes:
"Who's going to faint now? Huh?"
"..."
It took more than ten seconds to calm down, and Xiaoxuehua regained his staunch hero again. He sincerely hopes that readers will just pretend that nothing happened just now.
"you are you!"
"……so smart."
The other party sighed and pressed his forehead, his voice was slightly hoarse: "I'm about to be fainted by the little snowflake."
Extra
This year, the footsteps of the end of autumn are still lingering in the world, and the god of winter was forcibly awakened early.
According to the general situation, guests who choose such an inappropriate time to visit will be stopped by the snow boy who is in charge of guarding the door, so as not to disturb the winter god's rest.
However, the identity of this visitor today is quite special, and the Snow Boys would not dare to stop them even if they wanted to.
The honorable Lord Winter God was awakened alive in his sleep.
The air around him was so thin that he couldn't get in. He opened his eyelids inexplicably, and then realized that his whole body... was actually frozen tightly in a large piece of ice!
——That's right, it's like the kind of insect specimens sealed in rosin.
He frantically broke away from it, avoiding a certain cause of death that could become a black spot in his life. Before the God of Winter Ling had time to get angry, he raised his eyes, and the figure of the instigator bumped into his eyes in front of him, blocking his violent impulse back in an instant .
Probably because his eyes were too sad, the other party frowned and looked disgusted: "Sleep non-stop all year round, are you the reincarnation of pig essence?"
"..."
Not to mention the violence of being broken into, and even having to suffer personal attacks with vulgar language, what is the reason for it?
The God of Winter Ling tried his best to keep his expression from collapsing, and said tactfully, "Master Bing Ling... I don't know if you've ever heard such a saying that those who disturb people's dreams will be rewarded seven times."
Not only did the other party not feel ashamed or guilty when he heard the words, but he reminded him indifferently: "You are not human."
"..."
He couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "This sentence is a terrible swear word in the human world..."
The person in front of him obviously didn't have the patience to continue talking with him, so he pointed out the purpose of coming: "Stop talking nonsense. I'm here to find someone you want."
"...Ah? Who?"
The other party reached out to hand over a stack of books, his face was still calm, and only a pair of eyes were fixed on him, and there was an unusually rare blaze in the eyes that were usually cold as ice:
"The time that was promised back then has come."
Seeing his appearance, Dong Lingshen couldn't help being stunned, took the things he handed over, and before he looked down, he suddenly realized who he was referring to.
It's just because many years ago, this person in front of me also dragged a copy of Xuetongzi's resume like this, and broke into his house without warning, and his words were generally straight to the point:
"I want this child."
——Even the tone of voice and eyes are exactly the same.
So now...
If Dong Lingshen felt it, he looked down and saw a familiar name on the cover of the case book in his hand.
He stared at the photo next to him and observed carefully for a long time: "...have you grown up so soon?"
Different from human beings, the so-called adulthood of Xuetongzi only refers to the age when the use of one's spiritual power tends to be stable. As for the appearance, it has already grown up and will not change significantly.
Therefore, the face of the young man now seems to be no different from the vague impression left by the glimpse of him back then.
"Ah."
The other side responded in a calm voice, with a hint of joy and pride in his tone, like watching a young sprout that was held and protected by his own hands, and it was finally about to bear flowers after years.
"..."
This kind of nasty tone made Dong Lingshen shake his ears, and couldn't help blurting out: "Are you serious?"
The other party's gaze passed over his head coolly, as if he just listened to some nonsense and didn't even bother to respond.
The God of Winter Ling couldn't help being a little embarrassed, so he didn't have the nerve to slip out the second half of the sentence—since he really recognized him early, why did he wait for so many years?
The reason why I am embarrassed to say it is that I advised the other party with earnestness and earnestness back then, "Don't act too hastily... Be careful to scare people away... At least wait until he is an adult..."
——The person who uttered these righteous words with his own mouth was himself.
Dong Lingshen held back his guilty conscience and looked away silently.
God knew that he was just holding the idea of protecting the underage flowers under his hands from puppy love, so he just mentioned it casually, who knew that this guy actually agreed, and returned to the northern polar region without saying a word, and then in that boundless ice and snow field, It has been guarded for so many years.
Consciously, he quickly signed the original (deed) of the shoe (sale) in his hand, and then handed the things back, Dong Lingshen said dryly and vaguely: "Okay, okay...Let's take it away, take it away Well...the person is yours..."
——Get rid of this troublesome spirit as soon as possible, if he has been waiting all these years, it will be bad if he vents his anger on himself later.
It's a pity that the other party didn't leave immediately as he wished. After collecting the things, he still stayed where he was: "There is one more thing that needs to be arranged by you."
"what?"
Those silver eyes turned to the region release map hanging on the wall beside him, and his words were as calm as ice: "In the nearby cities, where does Snow Boy work the hardest?"
Although he was puzzled by this inexplicable question, Winter God still looked at the map cooperatively: "Where is the busiest...it should be City C. Well, their reports have always been the thickest. What's wrong?" ?”
"The work assignment for the new season will arrange him to go to City C."
"..."
It took him a few seconds to realize who this "he" was referring to. The Winter God looked at him strangely: "What's the reason? Aren't you going to chase him? Why do you want to drive people to suffer again in a blink of an eye?"
The other party seemed too lazy to explain, and turned around to leave: "Just do it."
The tail of long silver hair drew an arc in the air, and Dong Lingshen suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "This...isn't it? It's so old, don't you still want to make a hero to save the beauty?" ?”
The other party kept on stepping, without answering or denying.
Shocked by this guy's unexpected level of innocence, Dong Lingshen couldn't help but find it a little funny, and his confidence recovered, and he began to stand up and talk without back pain:
"Is there such a thing as chasing someone like this? The so-called freezing three feet is not a day's cold, water dripping through a stone is not a day's work, long-term love, time is the best catalyst for love, the most important thing in love is to have patience, patience ..."
He quickened his pace and successfully left those annoying nagging behind his ears.
Freezing three feet is not a day's cold... Is it?
These words rolled over silently on the tip of the tongue, and in the end there was only a slight mocking sneer on the corners of the thinned lips.
It's a pity that since he can remember, he has never been able to resonate with such words.
Even if he wants to form an ice barrier that is several feet thick and stretches for ten miles, it is a piece of cake for him.
... Not to mention long nights and many dreams.
He had waited long enough, and he had already lost Xu Xu Tuzhi's patience.
What's more, he never thought that something like love had to be catalyzed by time.From his point of view, it is clearly something that comes silently and in an instant.
Just like back then, it happened to him without warning.
-
The day he met Little Snowflake for the first time, the weather was fine, and the child was crying.
It wasn't the kind of soft whimpering and sobbing, but loud and almost arrogant wailing.
It was making his ears hurt.
That year, he received more than a dozen urgent letters one after another, asking him to rush back from the northern polar region, saying that there was an urgent matter to discuss.As a result, when he really came, the Winter God guy told him shamelessly with his old face: he was asked to come back because he wanted to ask him to invigilate the spirit test of this year's Snow Boy.
#MDZZ#
"I'm not joking with you! The recent freshman Xuetong is really lazy every time. Relying on the foundation laid by the predecessors, the number of people who come to participate in the spiritual test is getting less and less every year... You are a The spiritual pillar in their minds, help drive their self-motivation, hey!"
It sounds troublesome and uninteresting.
Seeing that he turned back ruthlessly and was about to leave, Winter God's whispered BB persevered:
"Anyway, my news has already been released. The Master Ice Commander they have been thinking about will come to invigilate them... If you don't see you in the examination room, those children line up one by one to apply to go to the northern polar region to stay and practice. I I'm not responsible—you probably don't know how many cross-domain love letters I have blocked for you over the years."
... Tsk.
On the day he met Xiaoxuehua, he finished the two rounds of invigilation for Xuetongzi, and his patience was exhausted. He immediately put the burden on the substitute invigilator, and went out to relax by himself.
The back mountain of the spiritual test examination room is separated by a long high wall, and a corridor stretches across it, with lush forests on the side, and the scenery is excellent.
It's just that I didn't expect that this remote corner had already been occupied by the first comers.
He heard his voice before seeing him, and the cries that could not be ignored came clearly.
He immediately turned around and walked back in the direction he came from.
However, that crying sound seemed to be holding a thread and carrying a small claw hook, and it persevered and lingered into his ears. Every time he took a step, he felt that he was crying more aggrieved.
Without hesitation, he walked all the way to the end of the corridor. Seeing that there was another corner and he could completely leave the cry behind him, he suddenly stopped.
... Then, with a turn in his footsteps, he walked back again.
As it got closer, the sound became clearer and clearer, and finally he stopped right below the sound source and looked up.
The wall was several feet high, and due to the angle, the face could not be seen, so only two legs could be seen hanging by the wall.
"What are you crying for?"
"Wow--!"
The other party didn't seem to notice that there was another person under the wall at all. He suddenly heard a voice, and was so frightened that he cried for a while. In the blink of an eye, it fell straight down——
He easily caught it.
The soft boy's body fell lightly in his arms.
Like catching a gust of grassy wind...
Or a piece of snow...
or a flower?
For a moment, he was slightly taken aback.
The young man managed to recover his breath from the coughing, and at this moment, a touch of white floated leisurely down from the air—at the same time, it floated into the sight of both of them.
The four eyes looked at the past at the same time, and the next moment, the boy in his arms was like a cat whose tail was pulled, the fur all over his body exploded, and he quickly grabbed the piece of paper and held it in his arms:
"Don't look!"
After he finished speaking, he seemed to think of something again, and then he lifted up the piece of paper, covering his face tightly:
"Don't even look at me!"
He silently watched the boy's series of actions: "..."
Sorry, already saw it.
——Whether it’s the dazzling red D—.
- still wet with tears.
Looking at the behavior of the other party who wanted to hide it, he couldn't help but feel a little funny-now he knows it's embarrassing, why didn't he feel shy when he howled so loudly just now?
Too lazy to expose the child's self-deception, he glanced at the spiritual examination report card held by the other party: "Little Xuehua, right?"
The side of the specific grades is facing the boy himself, but he can still see the basic information of the candidates.
The finger pinching the edge of the paper trembled, as if he wanted to reach out to cover the name, but he probably felt that it was too late, so he just gave up, only a muffled response came through the thin layer of paper:
"……what?"
He put the boy on a short branch next to him: "You are young, don't climb so high if you have nothing to do."
The other party didn't seem to appreciate it, but instead he snorted unhappily: "Who do you look down on, uncle? What's wrong with being young, it's just climbing a wall, who can fall off?"
...Then how did you get down just now?
He folded his arms and leaned against the tree trunk: "Who taught you to call 'uncle' without even seeing someone's face?"
"You talk old-fashioned, blame me?" The young man shrugged his shoulders very righteously, "It's a matter of courtesy, you can't look at me, and I won't look at you either."
... unreasonable.
"Are you the snow boy who participated in this year's spiritual test?"
"Nonsense, otherwise, would I still be here to travel?"
"..."
Every time I ask a question, the tone of the answer is extremely aggressive. It seems that the child's emotions are quite sensitive right now.
He pressed the corner of his mouth and asked knowingly, "I didn't pass the exam, so why are you hiding here and crying?"
"how is this possible!"
After conditioned reflexively refusing, Xiao Xuehua began to open her eyes and talk nonsense: "...I just lost my love."
"It's really a coincidence to specifically choose this day to lose love."
Xiao Xuehua didn't get the cold sarcasm, and he replied honestly: "I didn't pick the date... Who told that guy not to come early or late, so he just chose today?"
He listened slightly: "What do you mean? Are you still talking about a long-distance relationship?"
Across a piece of paper, I can imagine the boy rolling his eyes: "Uncle, don't you listen to gossip? This year, there is a new handsome invigilator. This is not a long-distance relationship, it is a teacher-student relationship." Love is right."
This year's new handsome invigilator: "..."
Xiao Xuehua didn't notice his strangeness at all, and Gu Zi sighed heavily.
He was really out of luck, he must have been severely teased by the ruthless giant claws of fate.
Previously, the senior uncle in the family tried to persuade him that the number of Xuetongzi who participated in the spiritual test in recent years was relatively small, and the pressure of competition was small, which was a great opportunity for him to get out of the pit!
Little Xuehua has always had soft ears, and she was convinced after a while, and she eagerly signed up for this year's spiritual test.
It turned out that I didn't expect... a disaster came from heaven.
Just one month before the official exam, news spread out of nowhere that someone would be the invigilator this year—
Then guess what, all the contemporaries around him went crazy!
Obviously, he had just personally promised him the day before that he would postpone taking the exam for a year, and try to minimize the pressure of competition for him by being loyal, but he started to read at night the next day.
The so-called plastic brotherhood is really not just talk.
As a result, the number of snow boys who took part in this spirit test in real time this year hit the highest record in history.
When he first signed up, the senior uncle gave him an estimate, saying that he should be able to get a C.
Now the results are out.
D—:)
——He has no face to go home!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and no matter what he thought it was the fault of the unknown invigilator, the boy Xiaoxuehua couldn't help but babbled and scolded this imaginary enemy who killed a thousand swords to the bottom.
"The unknown invigilator who killed a thousand swords" silently listened to the collection of cursing for a while: "... If I remember correctly, you said you liked him just now, why are you scolding him again?"
"Uh--"
The young man obviously choked for a moment: "I couldn't get what I asked for, and I hate it because of love, can't I?"
"Oh?" He asked back with great interest, "Why can't you ask for it? Have you pursued him?"
"I chased him! Just now I handed him a love letter, but he walked over without even looking at it! I spent three days writing a love letter without sleeping and eating, citing scriptures and allusions! In the end, another invigilator took it away like garbage It's gone! My heart is broken to pieces!"
——There is no doubt, the above is the cries of broken love he heard from a Xuetongzi at the same time before, and now he just recited it by learning it.
He was silent for a while, and finally replied in a low voice with some inscrutable meaning: "...Is that so."
Just chatted with a stranger for a long time inexplicably, and was finally interrupted by a grunting sound. Xiao Xuehua used one hand to carry the report card, and the other hand to cover her stomach.
Due to the pressure of the exam, he didn't eat a few bites of breakfast, and spent a lot of energy crying before, and now he feels hungry.
——Mian didn't want to go home, but unfortunately his stomach was holding him back.
"I won't talk to you anymore, I'm going home!"
Wiping away the tears that were still hanging on his face, the little Xuehua boy suddenly became mischievous, mobilized his spiritual energy and sprayed it in front of him, and jumped off the branch with a smile:
"Give it to you, uncle."
The movement caused a weak wind, accompanied by flocculent snowflakes falling down.
The boy ran away like a nimble cat, only his crisp voice remained in place——
"Just because you didn't let me wrestle just now!"
The corner of the clothes seemed to pass by his fingertips, and he subconsciously stretched out his hand, but he didn't even know what he wanted to grab. In the end, he only caught a lightly falling snowflake.
Quietly watching the young man's back gradually drifting away until he reached the end of the corridor, at that moment a thought popped into his mind, as if he felt that the other party would turn around and run back in the next second——
However, it does not.
The figure didn't stop from the beginning to the end, turned the corner without hesitation, and disappeared from sight.
His cold and calm silver eyes stared at the empty corner for a long time, then narrowed their eyes imperceptibly and silently.
There were no twittering words from the young man, and the surrounding quickly became quiet.
After a long while, he finally retracted his gaze and looked down at his fingertips, where the previous snowflake was standing upright.
As soon as he saw the specific shape of the snowflake, a few traces of smiles immediately penetrated into the cold silver eyes.
... No wonder there is only D—.
I don't know how long I watched this, but was finally interrupted by another voice: "Master Bing Lingshi—"
Probably seeing him away for too long, those guys in the examination room were worried and came out to look for him.
He raised his eyes and glanced at the faces in front of him, and finally stopped on a certain figure beside him: "I remember you received those letters from the snow boys earlier?"
The person named stepped forward cautiously, and nodded respectfully: "Yes."
"Go and find it for me. Is there a copy signed by 'Xiao Xuehua'? Bring it to me."
"……Yes."
……
The result is of course not.
When he heard the result report, he didn't feel too surprised. He just curled the corner of his mouth slightly and said softly, "Little liar..."
Ignoring the fidgeting figures in front of him, he half closed his eyelashes again.
Snowflakes made of tears...
The child probably didn't know that, for Xuetongzi, this was actually an overly intimate gesture.
The surface of the snowflake was sealed by a thin layer of ice, so even after such a long time, there was still no sign of melting.
Like a young ice butterfly, it rests silently on the fingertips, and it will shatter and disappear when it is slightly crushed.It is so weak that it can almost be ignored, but it actually exists.
Just like the thoughts that are eager to move in my heart, whether to let it spread wantonly, or to extinguish it in time, everything is still within the controllable range.
It just depends on one thought.
After a long time, he moved his fingers slightly.
In the blink of an eye, the ice butterfly shattered silently.
Only the young and incomplete snowflake remained, without the protection of the ice layer, the only fate was to melt, and in the last few seconds of survival time, it trembled pitifully in the wind.
Destined to melt, the only difference is where it melts.Want it to disappear into thin air?
--Do not.
He raised his finger and gently licked the snowflake into his mouth.
Before that, he never seemed to have thought of a problem.
What does snow taste like?
—Probably shouldn’t have a smell.
But that day, he knew for the first time that there are snowflakes in this world that are whiter and softer than wool, lighter and sweeter than sugar silk, and seem to have the sweet and soft milky smell of a young man in a trance.
Compared with the sky full of ice and snow that I watched day after day in the past, it is obviously the same crystal clear pure white, but it does not have that alienated coldness, but is soft and fragile.
...so cute it almost overwhelmed him.
As the snowflake melted on the tip of the tongue, an unknown corner of the chest seemed to collapse and melt silently, as if blown by the first ray of wind in spring.
melt……
This word is actually not that pleasant to them, but at this moment, savoring this feeling carefully, they only feel light and clear in their hearts.
After spending countless summers and autumns alone in the eternal cold winter, on that day, he finally heard his own spring heart.
Everything seems to be predestined, doomed.
Since then, ice and snow have been the only hot thing.
