The time of the city

Chapter 124 Christmas Chapter (Part )

Snowflakes fluttered down like goose feathers, growing heavier and heavier. The trees were covered with silver flowers, and the houses were covered in silver. It was as if someone had torn off large pieces of cotton wool and covered every corner with a white velvet blanket.

Today is Christmas. Mo Yu woke up and found a big sock beside the bed. She opened it with surprise, and an exquisite crystal hairpin appeared in front of her.

When she got out of bed, she found a series of footprints that extended all the way downstairs. Mo Yu followed the footprints and found a gift box every few steps. Mo Yu picked up the gift boxes as she walked, using the floor as a dining table. She could hardly put down all the gift boxes in her hands.

At this time, Ni Jiamu came out with a tray of food, pretending to be surprised. "Hey, it seems that Santa Claus has come to my house and left so many gifts for my Xiaoyu. He must love Xiaoyu very much."

Mo Yu knew that it was a surprise prepared by Ni Jiamu for her. There is no Santa Claus in the world. All gifts and surprises come from people who love you.

She hugged Ni Jiamu and said, "Merry Christmas, brother! Please tell Santa Claus that I like all the gifts he gave me."

Ni Jiamu smoothed Mo Yu's hair and said, "I'm happy with you. I'll call Santa Claus later."

After sitting down at the dining table, Song Fei came out from the kitchen, "Merry Christmas, Fei Fei."

Song Fei walked to the door and changed her shoes. "Happy Christmas, Xiaoyu. I'm leaving now." Then she went out with the insulated lunch box.

Ni Jiamu handed a piece of toast with sauce on it to Mo Yu. "Xiao Yu, I have to work overtime today, so I may not be able to spend Christmas with you."

"It's okay, it's okay. Xiaoxiao is with me. Brother should also pay attention to rest and don't work overtime. You see, you have dark circles under your eyes." As she said that, she began to trace the shape of Ni Jiamu's dark circles.

"I'm a little busy these days. When I'm free, I can spend some time with you."

After dinner, Ni Jiamu sent Mo Yu to the school gate and hurried to the company.

Mo Yu got off the car and saw Lin Xiao walking on the snow not far away. While waiting for Mo Yu, she had already stepped on several rabbits with her feet.

"There's a little traffic jam on Xiaoxiao Road."

"It's okay, I'll put it on you." Lin Xiao took out the same elk headband as the one on her head from her bag and put it on Mo Yu's head.

"Xiao Yuyu, I can't accompany you after school today. Our family is going to my grandfather's house for dinner."

"Hey, you all have things to do, so I have to be alone."

When I walked into the classroom, Mo Yu's desk was filled with greeting cards of various shapes, one of which was pressed by a bottle of Wangzai milk.

Mo Yu picked up the milk, which had been warmed. She knew it was Nan Feng who put it there because she would receive a bottle of Wangzai milk every morning.

She inserted the straw and opened the greeting card. What caught her eye was a funny selfie of Nan Feng. She chuckled and put the photo in the book.

Then there was a row of beautiful regular script: "Xiaoyu Xiaoyu, Merry Christmas!"

At the door of the gallery, Xiao Hecheng had no idea how long he had been standing there. His windbreaker fluttered in the wind, and he let the wind and snow pour in through every gap. A lot of snowflakes were also stuck to his collar.

He took out his cell phone and typed a few lines, deleted them, and wrote again, repeating this process several times. He found that he didn't even have the courage to send Mo Yu a Happy Christmas message.

Xiao Hecheng didn't know why Mo Yu's attitude towards him had changed drastically during this period of time. Looking at the unanswered message in the dialog box, he narrowed his eyes.

"Looks like I'll have to spend this winter alone. It's just as cold as last year."

"Hecheng, why are you standing outside the door?" Song Fei ran to him with an umbrella and raised it above his head with a distressed look on her face.

"He Cheng, I made breakfast for you. Let's go in and eat."

"I've eaten, thank you." Xiao Hecheng brushed off the snowflakes on his clothes and turned to walk into the gallery.

After school at noon, Lin Xiao said goodbye to Mo Yu at the school gate and got directly into the driver's car. Thinking of her empty home, Mo Yu immediately gave up the idea of going home and decided to take a walk around instead.

Walking down the street, you can feel the joyful atmosphere of Christmas in every corner. Almost every shopping mall has a Christmas tree at the entrance, hung with colorful things like bells, ribbons, and small gifts. When the wind blows, the trees make a crisp sound, which is very pleasant to the ears.

As usual, Song Fei sat on the sofa and watched Xiao Hecheng paint. Even though he could not say a few words to her a day, she was satisfied.

Xiao Hecheng was halfway through his painting when he stood up, picked up his coat, opened the door and was about to go out.

Song Fei also stood up. "Hecheng, where are you going?"

"Don't follow me when buying things." After saying that, Xiao Hecheng closed the door and walked out of the gallery.

In fact, he didn't want to buy anything. He just wanted to get some fresh air. Being stared at by a pair of eyes all day long would make anyone feel suffocated.

"There are still three stops left. I'm freezing to death." Mo Yu stomped her feet in the cold while holding her milk tea.

Xiao Hecheng was crossing the road when he saw that pretty figure. She was wearing a knee-length horn-buttoned coat and a moose headband on her head. She was dancing non-stop on the bus stop, which almost melted his heart.

"Xiao Yu" he shouted out the name in his heart uncontrollably.

Mo Yu turned around and waved at him, "Hi Hecheng." She hadn't seen him for a while, and she felt embarrassed when she thought about the trouble she had caused him and Song Fei.

He nodded slightly, a smile in his eyes that he himself hadn't noticed. "Happy Christmas, Xiaoyu. Do you want to go to the gallery? I have some new paintings."

Mo Yu lowered her head and picked at the label on her milk tea. "I...I want to go home."

He frowned and stepped forward to grab Mo Yu's arm. "Xiao Yu, what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly ignore me? Is there something I did wrong?"

"I...I've been very busy lately."

"Hecheng Xiaoyu and the others."

Mo Yu turned around and met Song Fei's gaze, which was filled with suspicion and unspeakable emotions. She pulled her hand away from Xiao Hecheng's.

"I, I'll go first." After saying that, she tried to run forward. She didn't know whether Song Fei would misunderstand her and blame her for breaking her promise.

At that moment, her heart was in a mess and her mind was filled with all kinds of chaotic thoughts.

"Did you say anything to Xiaoyu?"

Xiao Hecheng looked at Song Fei, his eyes as clear as a deep pool, revealing a thoughtful look.

Song Fei's heart tightened, and her heart was beating wildly. "I...how could I possibly say anything to her? Xiaoyu wants to keep her distance from you because she has someone she likes."

He glanced at the place where Mo Yu had just stood and said softly, "I know."

Mo Yu kept running and running until she was exhausted and stopped. She still couldn't forget the look in Song Fei's eyes, which made her so panicked, as if she was a complete traitor.
