During the Chinese New Year, red decorations are hung everywhere in the community, making it a joyful place.
But at this time, everyone is at home waiting for the countdown to the first day of the new year.
It's very windy and cold outside.
Zhou Jimo pulled Gu Ruojiao to his side and protected her from the wind blowing from the river.
"Is it cold?"
"fine."
Every time you say a word, a cloud of mist will be sprayed out.
She smiled innocently, her eyebrows arched.
Seeing how silly she was, Zhou Jimo wanted to make fun of her, but for some reason, he started laughing too.
The two of them walked to the pavilion.
The place is covered with small holiday light bulbs, which looks very dreamy and beautiful from a distance.
There are also various beautiful flowerpots and landscaping placed around, probably brought here specially by the community for taking photos.
Just looking at it will make you feel happy.
At this time, the phone's ringtone rang.
Gu Ruojiao turned her head and looked over, and saw the young man turned off the ringer and looked towards her.
Between the light and shadow, she saw the young man's gentle smile.
Like the mountains where the ice and snow have melted, it is no longer cold.
"Happy birthday, little toffee."
For some reason, Gu Ruojiao's eyes felt slightly warm.
"How do you know?"
"Because I'm smart."
Zhou Jimo took out a gift box from his trouser pocket.
"Open it and take a look at the birthday present."
Gu Ruojiao opened the velvet box, and inside was a hand-knitted bracelet made of strawberry crystals and pearl knots, with a strawberry crystal candy in the middle.
Obviously, Zhou Jimo made this up himself.
She couldn't put it down, rubbing the small candies with her fingertips.
Seeing this, Zhou Jimo took out the bracelet with a smile and put it on her left hand.
"When I have money later, I will buy you another birthday gift."
Gu Ruojiao shook her head.
"No, I really like this."
There is nothing more precious than a handmade gift.
Hearing this, Zhou Jimo's eyes lit up.
In a low voice: "Then I will make one for you every birthday from now on, okay?"
"Really?"
Little Toffee was obviously very happy and stretched out her little finger towards him.
"Then you have to pull the hook. You can't lie to me. If you lie to me, you're just a puppy!"
Zhou Jimo stretched out his little finger and entangled it with her.
"Well, it's the puppy that's lying."
Gu Ruojiao was satisfied, holding the wrist with the bracelet on it lovingly, as if she was afraid of bumping it.
Well-behaved and coquettish.
Zhou Jimo couldn't help but think that if such a delicate little toffee was not kept by his side and watched, he might suffer somewhere in the future.
Thinking of this, he suddenly asked: "Have you ever thought about which school to go to?"
"No." She shook her head, "But dad wants to send me to study abroad."
Hearing this, Zhou Jimo's heart suddenly sank.
His hands unconsciously clenched into fists, but he just lowered his eyes.
But Little Toffee didn't find it.
"But I don't want to go abroad." She turned around, looked at Zhou Jimo and said softly, "I want to take the college entrance examination with you and then go to the same university."
Zhou Jimo suddenly raised his head and met her beautiful eyes.
Under countless bright lights, it was like the Milky Way in the sky falling in her eyes, extremely dazzling.
Zhou Jimo's throat moved.
After a moment, he spoke in a mute voice: "Little Toffee, do you remember that you owe me a request and compensation?"
Little Toffee puffed up her cheeks when she heard this.
Just when you were about to say something, just listen to what he said.
"All I want is to give you a hug, is that okay?"
Without waiting for her answer, he took a step forward and hugged her into his arms.
Behind me, I don’t know which building secretly set off fireworks.
The sky is filled with bright fireworks, like falling stars.
The winter night wind is very cold, but it cannot blow away the warmth of this world.
