Chapter 8: The Season of Falling Snow

It's been snowing outside for two days, and everything in the sky is like a painting. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoXiao Ran hadn't seen such a big snow for many years, and he always felt that even the people in the snow had become less real.

The morning exam had just ended, and there was a lot of people on the stairs. Xiao Ran packed up his things, stood in the corridor and looked at the snow outside, and was stunned for a while. Someone tapped him on the shoulder, and when he looked back, it was Guan Xue.

"Squad leader, why did you come up?"

"I came to find Xia Chenxuan, and when I saw you standing here in a daze, I came over to stand with you for a while. ā€

Xiao Ran smiled: "The sky and the earth are so white, so I'll stand here and take a look." ā€

"I don't like snow, even though that's my name. I always feel that when the snow falls, the world is white as if it has never been warm, just like some people, even though they are injured, they always pretend to be 'impregnable'. ā€

Xiao Ran didn't expect Guan Xue to suddenly let out such an emotion, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, tilted his head and looked at Guan Xue for a while before saying, "Squad leader, what injuries did you suffer?"

Guan Xue sneered: "I'm not so easy to get hurt, I just feel a little bastard, obviously I'm very unhappy, but I have to pretend to laugh every day, very bastard!"

"Well, it's a bastard. However, if disguise makes him more comfortable, why care if he is disguised or not. ā€

Guan Xue looked at the snow outside, sighed and said, "Xiao Ran, I'm quite sad today." ā€

"What's wrong? Did you fail the exam?"

"No, it's my uncle who came back today, and he ...... I don't know what to say. ā€

Xiao Ran was a little stunned, why was his uncle unhappy when he came back? Isn't the relationship bad? Wait, isn't Guan Xue's uncle Xia Chenxuan's father? Looking at Guan Xue like this, I guess there is something inside. Xiao Ran couldn't help but sigh and patted Guan Xue on the shoulder: "Squad leader, don't be sad, it's difficult for a Qing official to take care of family affairs, why don't I lend you my shoulder for a while?"

When Guan Xue heard this, she couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Get away, just your little shoulders, can you stop me from leaning on?" Okay, you continue to be in a daze, I'll go first." ā€

"Gone, aren't you waiting for Xia Chenxuan?"

Guan Xue glanced at the first class, shook her head and said, "Don't wait, he won't come out, I'll wait in vain, I'll go." ā€

"Oh, good. "Xiao Ran felt that today's Guan Xue was a little strange, and it was really 'a scripture that is difficult to read'. Xiao Ran stood for a while, and waited until there was no one before walking towards the staircase. When he arrived at the staircase, he stopped, thought about it, and turned back and walked towards the first class.

Xia Chenxuan was sitting alone in the class, with headphones in his ears, he was lowering his head and didn't know what he was thinking, Xu Wei's voice came faintly from the headphones: "...... Whoever paints this heaven and earth will draw me and you, and make our world gorgeous and colorful. Who made us cry and surprise us, so that we would love and meet each other like this. Always say goodbye, get together and separate......"

Xiao Ran knocked through the glass, and seeing that he didn't move, he had to go to the classroom and knock on his desk. Xia Chenxuan raised his head and saw that it was Xiao Ran, so he pulled off a headset and smiled: "What's wrong?"

Xiao Ran pointed to the time on the wall: "Why don't you go to eat?"

"Oh, forgot. ā€

Xiao Ran: "Then when you think about it, remember to eat, listen, I'm leaving." ā€

"Xiao Ran. ā€

"Huh?"

"How about you invite me to lunch, so you don't have to buy me breakfast the day after tomorrow?"

Xiao Ran: "...... I always go to the school cafeteria to eat. ā€

"Well, it's okay, I'll be with you. ā€

Xiao Ran: "怂怂怂怂怂怂 "Who's with whom?!

The two of them walked all the way to the cafeteria and did not speak again, only the 'creaking' sound of shoes stepping on the snow. Xia Chenxuan put on his mask again when he came out of the classroom, and although he put away his headphones, he still kept his head down. Xiao Ran guessed that the person Guan Xue was talking about today was him, and knew that he was unhappy, so he didn't speak. When he arrived at the cafeteria, Xiao Ran took the plate, looked at Xia Chenxuan and said, "Look at what you eat?"

Xia Chenxuan looked at the dishes in the cafeteria and frowned: "Is there anything else to eat?"

Xiao Ran was a little helpless: "No, this is a canteen, not a restaurant." ā€

Xia Chenxuan thought for a while: "Then you order, I'll eat with you." ā€

Xiao Ran nodded, took another plate and handed it to him: "Take it." ā€

Xia Chenxuan took the dinner plate and followed behind Xiao Ran step by step. Xiao Ran made four slightly lighter dishes, took two bowls of porridge, and put them on Xia Chenxuan's plate: "If you have a cold, just eat porridge, okay?"

Xia Chenxuan nodded: "Hmm." ā€

Xiao Ran swiped the card, took him to find a place, deliberately ignored the whispers and scrutiny around him, and sat down calmly. As soon as I sat down, I saw Xia Chenxuan still silently holding the dinner plate, standing next to the dining table, and said strangely: "What's wrong?"

Xia Chenxuan glanced at her stool with his eyes: "You don't sit down if you don't wipe it?"

"It's okay, Auntie wipes it every day, besides, there must have been someone else sitting just now. ā€

"No, wipe it again. ā€

Xiao Ran was helpless, took out a pack of tissues from his bag and smoked two, under Xia Chenxuan's gaze, he first wiped his stool, then wiped the table, and finally walked to the opposite side, helped him wipe the stool, and then made a 'please' gesture, and said, "Come on, master, please take a seat." ā€

Xia Chenxuan put the dinner plate on the table and sat down slowly, Xiao Ran just wanted to eat with chopsticks, and heard him say again: "Wait." ā€

Xiao Ran was about to pick up the dishes: "What's the matter?"

I saw Xia Chenxuan take out a tissue, take out a bottle of water from his bag, soak the tissue and hand it to her: "Wipe your hands." ā€

Xiao Ran took it and wiped his hands, and said in his heart: Didn't you wash it before taking the dinner plate? However, I was afraid that I would be choked by his words, so I didn't dare to say what was in my heart.

Xia Chenxuan took out another piece of paper, picked up the chopsticks in front of him, wiped them carefully, and then handed it to her: "Use this pair." Then he took Xiao Ran's pair of chopsticks and continued to wipe them.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran silently put down his chopsticks. After watching him finish wiping his chopsticks, then wiping the spoon, and finally wiping the edges of the two bowls of porridge, he sighed and said, "Can you eat it now?"

"Well, let's eat. Xia Chenxuan nodded.

Xiao Ran picked up the chopsticks again, ate, ate and ate, and couldn't help laughing.

Xia Chenxuan took a slow sip of porridge with a spoon, and waited for her to finish laughing before asking, "What are you laughing at?"

Xiao Ran took a piece of vegetables, put it in his mouth, and said, "It's nothing, I just feel like I'm back in kindergarten, every time I have to wait for the teacher to say that it's okay to eat, and then I dare to eat with a spoon." ā€

Xia Chenxuan drank the porridge and asked casually: "Xiao Ran, do you think I'm very troublesome?" Guan Xue always thinks I'm troublesome and refuses to eat with me. ā€

"No, everyone's personality is different, I don't think it's anything, it's just a bit of a waste of paper. Xiao Ran looked at the empty package of paper, and felt a pity. Then he took another pack out of his bag and put it on the table: "Fortunately, I still have one." ā€

Xia Chenxuan pulled the corners of his mouth when he heard this, and was silent for a moment before saying: "When I was young, I once quarreled with Guan Xue and made her anxious, she said that with my character, no one can stand me in this life. Later, when my parents divorced and asked me who I was willing to talk to, I thought, I guess Guan Xue was right, if they remarry in the future, I am afraid that my character will affect their family. So, I think I'd better go back to my hometown and live here, and wait until my personality can change a little better. But now I find it a little difficult, 'the country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change', if I don't pay attention, I will still leak out my nature. ā€

Xiao Ran had never seen Xia Chenxuan say so many words at one time, and he never interjected. Thinking about his previous temperament, and thinking about the present, I can't help but sigh secretly. People always have their own troubles, and no one can really empathize, so many times, language always seems so pale and weak. Xiao Ran could only say: "They will be happy, and you will be happy." ā€

Xia Chenxuan's eyes lowered, looking at the porridge in the bowl, and responded, "Well, it will be." ā€

All the good and bad will eventually become a thing of the past, and I know how to make my family happy, but I don't want to do it. Still holding those little prejudices and unwillingness, torturing all those who really care about themselves, is just a childish revenge, which can't be solved and can't change anything. Xia Chenxuan took out his mobile phone and sent a text message: Dad, after school, let's talk, shall we?

Within a few seconds, the text message came back: Okay, son, dad is waiting for you.

Xia Chenxuan couldn't help but smile: I can see the season of falling snow, which is really beautiful.
