Ye Wanbai had a beautiful expression that you thought, and stretched out his hand to compare five in front of her eyes.

"The friendship price will give you the errand fee, 50 Hong Kong dollars, Alipay will transfer to me."

“……”

The two of them finished sourcing the peeing cow pills upstairs, and met the other three downstairs to officially start today's Christmas Eve journey.

Although night has not yet arrived, the streets are already full of festive spirit, with mistletoe bell garlands hanging everywhere outside the shop windows, and the most ordinary apples are transformed into the most dazzling places, like a crystal.

In the evening, the atmosphere was even more enthusiastic, and they had been wandering around Central, and had decided to go to West Kowloon. There's a huge Christmas tree there, and you can go and light it. But after discussing it, I felt that the place must be crowded.

In the end, Ye Wanbai thought of an idea and decided to take the Ferris wheel on the edge of Central. You can also see the Christmas tree on the other side of Victoria Harbour from a high place, although the distance is a little far, you can only see the general atmosphere, but it is more comfortable than crowding.

However, when I really got there, I realized that it was worth it.

The view from the Ferris wheel is more spectacular than expected, with an unobstructed view of Victoria Harbour in the afterglow of the setting sun, and a giant Christmas tree in the distance against the backdrop, vaguely looking like it is burning.

Five people crowded into a box, taking turns to sit in a different position facing Victoria Harbour and posing for a photo with the Christmas tree from afar. You Xuezhen took a purely Christmas tree landscape photo alone and sent it to Meng Shilong.

He was on the plane early this morning, and before departure, he took a picture of the side window of the plane for her, and there was no extra nonsense other than that, just a continuation of yesterday's "I suddenly thought of you so I sent it to you".

She was angry at the time because she overslept, but she forgot to reply after reading this message, and hurriedly made up for this Christmas tree.

The Ferris wheel swayed upward, and after a while, Meng Shilong also sent a picture of the same Christmas tree, but the angle was on the opposite side, and the distance was also very far, thanks to the large enough tree, he photographed a small section of the tree.

Dragon: "You can see it from the balcony of Grandma's house."

Zhen Zhibang: "I'm home!"

Dragon: "Well, I'm with Grandma."

Zhen Zhibang: "When I bought the exchange gift yesterday, I also picked a gift for Grandma! I'll give it to you when I'll see you in the evening."

Zhen Zhibang: "I wish her a happy birthday in advance!"

The other end of WeChat repeatedly showed that the other party was typing, and in the end she received only two words, thank you.

Zhen Zhibang: "Hahaha, don't you ask me what I sent?"

Dragon: "What did you give?"

Zhen Zhi Stick: "Photo Frame~"

Zhen Zhibang: "Speaking of which, did you take a picture of Grandma [snickering]?"

Dragon: "[Image]"

He sent a picture of the back of an old man watching TV, leaning on an emerald green sofa, with black and shiny hair on the back of his head and a wood-carved hairpin.

Zhen Zhibang: "Your skills are getting better and better, this shot is not bad"

Zhen Zhibang: "Look at the back is a big beauty"

Dragon: "What about this?"

You Xuezhen looked at the screen and was stunned, and the dialog box at the other end sent another back, with broad shoulder and back muscles, rolling up her sleeves to loosen the soil of plants on the balcony. When she zoomed in on the photo, she could see that her hair was shaggy from the warm winter sun.

Zhen Zhibang: "Oh! Who took it for you?"

Dragon: "Grandma"

Zhen Zhibang: "Grandma shoots better than you"

Meng Shilong directly sent a five-second voice, the first two seconds were silent, and the second three seconds said, then I will continue to work hard.

You Xuezhen typed and deleted in the input box, and finally sent the next line of words: "By the way, did you forget to delete the two ugly photos of mine before?"

Meng Shilong quickly replied with two words: "I haven't forgotten"

"When I wanted to delete it, I thought it was cute, and I couldn't bear to delete it."

This sentence was sent immediately, and You Xuezhen's heart stopped urgently in the sky for a second.

But he praised too calmly, which made people think that maybe the answer was so simple, and there was no more thoughts that should not be there.

She fell into a daze, and Yuan Jing pushed her beside her, signaling that it was her turn to take a photo with the Christmas tree.

You Xuezhen cleared her mind and switched positions with Ye Wanbai, who had been photographed last time. But he didn't sit back, but sat next to her, held up his mobile phone and said I'll shoot it for you.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, an electric current suddenly passed through the speakers inside the box.

Then came the announcement from the staff - there was a small glitch in the Ferris wheel and it would be repaired as soon as possible, but it would take about a minute to stay in the air.

Everyone didn't think that the Ferris wheel had stopped, so a reminder, looked left and right, only to find that it really stopped, especially they were still parked in an awkward position, not to the apex, but just a cut away from the apex, there is a reference to know that this is a very high altitude.

You Xuezhen glanced out the window, and her fear of heights was suddenly lifted high, and her feet instantly softened.

However, everyone else in the box behaved well, taking pictures and swiping their mobile phones, and they didn't think it was a thing. You Xuezhen swallowed her saliva and continued to squeeze out a smile at the camera.

Ye Wanbai put down the phone, suddenly raised her hand, and covered her eyes with her palm.

Her vision was covered in darkness, and she heard him write lightly, "Don't look down if you're afraid." ”

The Ferris wheel stopped for a minute, and he just raised his hand for a minute.

However, a minute later, the Ferris wheel started again, and Ye Wanbai had not yet let go of his hand.

He slowed down for about ten seconds, the sun was setting just over the horizon, and the sky was blue—and at that moment, he let go of his hand, and the Christmas tree on the other side of Victoria Harbour was lit up, and the sky and earth lit up behind You Xuezhen's side.

You Xuezhen blinked her eyes, switching from darkness to golden light, and her expression couldn't help but be stunned.

I don't know if Ye Wanbai was calculated, or if it was a coincidence to put down his hand, in short, the electric light and stone fire that put down his hand, and the Victoria Harbour, which had been darkened, was ignited by the lights of the trees, and burned again, and the shadow extended here. It seems that the whole Hong Kong Island is creating this surprise.

The unintentional romance is simply astounding.

You Xuezhen turned around, Ye Wanbai clicked to take a photo and threw it to her: "Happy Christmas Eve." ”

After watching the lighting of the Christmas tree on the Ferris wheel and after eating, they made a special detour to the Peninsula Hotel in Kowloon to catch a sightseeing bus in order to meet up with Meng Shilong.

Tonight is a special Christmas bus, with lights and garlands hanging at the front and back, like a float in an amusement park.

They were the first to get on the bus and occupied six positions in the last row of the upper deck. One of the places was reserved for Meng Shilong, but he was not seen when it was time to leave.

At the last minute, he said apologetically in the group that Grandma hadn't slept yet, he couldn't get out, and he probably couldn't come.

Ye Wanbai replied in the group: "It's okay [thumbs up] The most important thing is to accompany your family."

You Xuezhen replied with an ellipsis, of course, aimed at Ye Wanbai's reply.

Does this thing want to change his face so quickly, knowing that Meng Shilong is no longer a potential rival, he suddenly turned good, and actually sent such an intimate reply.

When she was seated, she and Yuan Jing sat side by side to the left two positions of the last row, and Zuoqiu and Mao Suhe also sat together, and Ye Wanbai, who was lonely, sat in the last row very indifferently, and was a distance from You Xuezhen in an aisle.

She couldn't help but look sideways at him, still thinking about the scene on the Ferris wheel just now.

Stunned, she met his eyes, and his eyes narrowed slightly: "What are you doing?" ”

You Xuezhen immediately put on a hippie smile, and looked at the back of the two people sitting together in the front row, indicating that you really lost completely.

Before Ye Wanbai was about to start playing her head, she quickly retracted her body from the aisle, the bus just started, she fell into Yuan Jing's arms, her eyes rotated, and she saw a bright night sky, there were no stars, but the lights of the city were enough to illuminate every flowing thin cloud.

Yuan Jing thought she was heavy, and put her leg on her back, and she lay down playfully, staring straight at the clouds, as if she would not miss Santa Claus driving the elk from this cloud to that cloud.

She is in the heart of Hong Kong Island, with moving stations full of people, colorful lights hanging on the streets, flowers, turkey, mulled wine, and what a huge festival.

The last thing that ended in her mind was still the cluster of fire trees and silver flowers on the Ferris wheel, and the palm of the palm that covered her eyelids with the whitening leaves.

Yau Ma Tei is still bustling at night, with fruit stalls, old theaters, and old bookstores...... The dim air under the street lamps seemed to be able to feel particles that were only present on film.

Meng Shilong removed the sheets and covers from the balcony that had been drying for two days, which Grandma had specially washed when she knew he was coming back, and the smell of soaphorn floated on the cotton fabric, which overshadowed the smell of oil smoke wafting from the ice room downstairs.

He stared at the tip of the Christmas tree in the distance, looked down at the ellipsis that someone in the phone group replied to, and absentmindedly folded the sheet into the room.

In the living room, Grandma was washing apples, and she had a stronger sense of ritual than him on Christmas Eve, so she went out early in the morning and picked out a big ruddy apple, and then washed the apples and gave them to him with a beautiful bow with a ribbon.

In the past, he would not remove the ribbon after taking it, and just peel it aside without hindering the bite. Grandma will say that he doesn't understand the customs, why don't he pay attention to the festival at all.

But in his concept, this so-called Christmas Eve is just the night before Grandma's birthday. Christmas Eve is a holiday for everyone in the world, and he doesn't care about anyone else compared to Grandma.

Therefore, the person who never cared about this night, after taking Grandma's apple tonight, actually held it without a mouthful.

Grandma's eyes narrowed slightly, and she shook her hands with a smile: "What are you doing weird?" (Something is wrong with you)

Meng Shilong put the apple on the table, touched his nose and shook his head: "Oh." (No)

Grandma snorted lightly: "Zhong wants to wait for me, why don't you pat it tightly?" (Don't lie to me, are you in love?) ）

“…… It's really incredible. (Not really)

"Don't stay with me." She raised her hand to cover her yawn, "I'm going to train Liangjue." (Don't stay with me, I'm going to go for beauty sleep)

Meng Shilong saw that her covered mouth didn't yawn at all, shook his head, squatted next to the TV cabinet to get the DVD, and turned out one of the "Sweet Honey".

"Why don't you want to see this dish first?" (Didn't you just say you wanted to watch this disc?) ）

Grandma came over and grabbed the disc box and slapped it on his head: "Look at this one, it's better for you to really give me a 'sweet honey'!" (Look at this, why don't you really give me a sweet honey!) ）

"Don't guess...... (don't guess...... ）

"I don't know you, do I? You can accompany me every day, don't worry. Grandma changed her words again, "I don't need you to go over it." (I don't know you yet?) You can stay with me all day tomorrow, not too bad. Actually, you can not use it tomorrow. ）

"I'm going to celebrate your birthday with you, why don't I accompany you for the holidays?" (I flew here for your birthday, why don't I come to spend time with you?) ）

"I don't have to be with you for my birthday, the most important thing about my birthday is that I wish you." (I don't have to be accompanied by you for my birthday, the most important thing about my birthday is to make a wish that it is not you!) ）

Meng Shilong smiled: "Every time you make a wish, you have to make a good promise, I don't know if you make a wish?" (You have to make a long wish every time, I don't think you know what to wish, right?) ）

"Ah, I just made three wishes, too little, I don't know how to pick up a margin. When I got to my age, I first found out that I had a lot of regrets......" Grandma smiled, her eyelids drooped, and the lights and shadows in the distance were there, she walked to Grandpa's spiritual seat, wiped the clear table, and murmured, "It's a pity that the time has passed." Aaron, people can't turn their heads and live by wishing. ”

(Yes, I can only make three wishes, too few, I don't know which one to pick.) At this age, I realized that I had a lot of regrets...... Unfortunately, those days have passed. Aaron, people can't go back and live by making wishes. ）

The night breeze was very quiet, and Grandma seemed to be sighing, and it sounded like it was just the sound of the wind.

She spoke again, the loneliness in her tone had already run out, and she urged him impatiently: "Hurry up, I'm going to be trained!" ”

Meng Shilong pursed his lips and looked up at the ticking clock on the wall, his palms began to sweat.

In the pocket of his baseball jersey was a small heavy box, like the apples on the table, with a beautiful bow ribbon tied on it.

"Got it...... I'll go-" Dida, Dida, the clock kept swinging, Meng Shilong got up and quickly hugged Grandma, hooked the strap on the apple with his index finger and put it into another empty pocket, pressed the tongue cap, and did it in one go, "Listen to breakfast with you in the morning!" ”

Before he finished speaking, the voice had drifted away with the sound of the footsteps running downstairs.
