Fortunately, the phone was brought out, and the only remaining money was in the bound account.

The landlord left after scolding, and Xu He noticed that he didn't even wear a pair of shoes in a panic.

She stepped on the frozen hard mud floor, her socks were already soaked, and the nervous mood was removed at this moment, and the whole body felt that it was not good.

The place where there was chilblains was even more stinging, and the burned part of the arm was also burning and hurting, Xu He stood on the street of a foreign country in the middle of the night, feeling helpless and dazed for the first time.

With Tang Zhao here these days, in fact, her heart is very stable, some people are like this, only when he is not there, you will find out how much help and strength he has given you invisibly.

It was too late, and Xu He didn't want to trouble his classmates, so he had to go to a nearby hotel to open a room first.

After carefully avoiding the injury and taking a hot bath, he applied a layer of scalding cream to reduce inflammation by himself, thinking that the landlady would have to compensate for the loss after settling the loss tomorrow, Xu He was not sleepy at all.

The money on my body is not enough, no matter how I calculate it, the Chinese restaurant has not yet reached the day of settling the salary, and the tutor is embarrassed to advance in advance.

Xu He thought, if it really doesn't work, he can only borrow something from Tang Zhao.

Then the salary was paid and then returned to him.

The next day, after Xu He got up, he went to buy a pair of the cheapest UGG, and he couldn't even go to school without shoes, and the money had to be spent anyway.

During the day, I still go to class and work part-time.

When Tang Zhao wanted to video with her in the evening, Xu He was afraid that Tang Zhao would be worried, so he could only take his mobile phone out of the hotel and go to a nearby 24-hour convenience store to connect the video as if he was shopping.

Tang Zhao didn't seem to see anything wrong, and kept telling her to go back early after buying things in the video, it was too dark and the neighborhood was not safe.

He had noticed that drunken drunkards were often seen on the streets, harassing passers-by from time to time.

Chinese people are also the focus of robbery, especially a single girl like Xu He, which is even more uneasy.

Tang Zhao kept urging her to go back quickly, Xu He could only walk in the direction of the apartment, and in the end he really had no choice, so he hurriedly turned off the video under the pretext that the mobile phone was out of power.

Tang Zhao sent several more voices, and it wasn't until Xu He finally took a photo of him doing a question on the computer, that he seemed to be relieved, and finally said Merry Christmas to her, and didn't bother her anymore.

In the evening, the landlady sent a bill, and Xu He scraped together enough money and transferred it to her.

Then she found out that she couldn't even afford to stay in the cheapest hotel for $20 a night.

When it was time to check out at the end, Xu He could only hold his computer and carry the learning materials that she rescued and leave.

When it was almost dark, Xu He decided to call his classmates and spend the night first.

The classmate enthusiastically agreed, and told her that they were out shopping, and they would drive over to pick her up in a while.

Xu He squatted on the side of the road, waiting for his classmates to pick him up.

The lights were lit on the streets of the foreign country, and Xu He squatted on the side of the road, looking at the pedestrians of different skin colors with some dazed eyes, walking in front of her.

The mobile phone was buzzing and vibrating, and Xu He picked it up, it was a voice call from Tang Zhao.

"What are you doing? Didn't go back to the apartment. ”

"I'm back, I'll be there soon."

"How do you eat alone at night?"

"Haha, I'm going to make braised pork noodles, but unfortunately you're not here, so I don't have a mouthful."

Xu He pretended to say in a relaxed tone.

Tang Zhao held her mobile phone and stood by the window on the corner opposite her.

Christmas still has a lingering aftertaste, the Christmas tree in the window is full of colorful sweets, Tang Zhao lit a cigarette and put it between his fingers, looking at the girl he likes across the wide street and the crowd.

He had actually been watching her for a while, holding her computer and a few books, wandering back and forth on this stretch of the road like a homeless child.

Many times, she squatted, a little dazed, with her black and white eyes open, looking at passers-by, not knowing what she was thinking.

It's like she has a little world of her own, and no one can invade it.

She is strong, yet vulnerable, stubborn, yet soft.

Tang Zhao's heart is so soft that he can't help himself, he wants to give her a home, a home that will always be warm, will never disappear, and will always be able to shelter her from all harm and disasters.

"Tang Zhao, I'm at the apartment, I won't tell you......"

Her voice came crisply, Tang Zhao lowered his head and smiled, he puffed out his cigarette, and on the phone, his voice was extraordinarily gentle: "Sister, you look at the other side." ”

"Ahh

Xu He was a little surprised, but he still subconsciously looked over.

Tang Zhao was wearing a dark gray British-style coat, black trousers, and black boots, standing in front of the colorful glass window, and when she looked over, he smiled and raised his hand and waved at her.

Through the sparse flow of people, through the alternating bright traffic lights on the zebra crossing, across the time that seemed to freeze and the long years between them, smiled at her brightly.

"Tang Zhao."

Xu He stood up slowly, Tang Zhao pinched his cigarette, the phone was still in his ear, and he didn't put it down.

Without waiting for the green light to come on, he took a few steps across the pavement on his long legs and reached her.

He stood under the roadbed, and she stood on the narrow edge of the road, and he was still a head taller than her.

"Sister, I'm back."

Tang Zhao said softly, then stretched out his arm and wrapped her whole person in his coat.
