Although Sylvia's father Weiss Sloat is not in good health, Qiang cheers up and treats the guests with a very warm attitude.

There is a sumptuous dinner on the table in the dining room. In fact, it is similar to Chinese New Year’s Eve. Westerners’ Christmas dinner also advocates eating meat, just like the Chinese saying goes: Who doesn’t eat a meal during the New Year’s Eve? dumpling?

Mr. Sloat told Qin Xiong proudly: This table of dinner was cooked by Sylvia herself.

Qin Xiong tasted turkey, salmon, and a vegetable platter. It is unimaginable that she even made Christmas cakes by herself.

Just like when Chinese people eat dumplings, they will put a coin in the dumpling to indicate who will get rich in the new year. Westerners also hide mascots in Christmas cakes during Christmas. Some are almonds, some are other things. In the Netherlands, at Christmas Those who eat the lucky pastry will be blessed by the little black Peter, the god of luck.

The temperature in the room was warm enough. Georgia put on new jerseys and sneakers, happily ran upstairs and downstairs, and he ate the most pastries. When he ate the pastry with the lucky item hidden, he was very excited.

But 2 minutes later, Qin Xiong took a random biscuit and took a bite, chewing on his mouth and suddenly his expression became weird.

He seems to have eaten it too.

Seeing his expression, Sylvia knew that Qin Xiong had also eaten a fortune cookie, and whispered to him: "In order for this little guy to eat a fortune cookie, I made three pieces. I ate one just now, and you also eat one." Don’t tell him if you’re here.”

Qin Xiong smiled and blinked, and gave Sylvia a reassuring look.

"Now the clubs in the Netherlands have entered the winter break. If I remember correctly, it should be about a month. Are you not going back to China?"

Weiss Sloter asked kindly.

Qin Xiong picked up the napkin to wipe his mouth and talked to the elders. He was always very formal, on the one hand to show respect, on the other hand, he was indeed not very familiar with the uncle in front of him.

He said sternly: "To be honest, the traditional Chinese holidays just start at the end of the winter break, plus, um, I don't have many friends in China, and I don't have any real relatives. Maybe you don't know , I am an orphan. Therefore, I have no plan to return to China during the winter break, and I plan to use this time to take a walk in the Netherlands and relax.”

Slote nodded knowingly, and then suggested: "Then why not ask Sylvia to be your guide."

Sylvia's expression froze, and she said, "Dad, I don't have much vacation."

Sloat shook his head slightly, with a serious expression, and said: "You should relax, you have a holiday, but I know, you are going to work, listen to me, this year's Christmas holiday, go outside to play, Don't worry about other things."

Sylvia hesitated to speak, but Qin Xiong seemed to understand something.

A capitalist society does not mean that all family life needs can be met. Of course, there will be many ordinary families living in poverty and difficulties.

The situation at Sylvia's house was clear at a glance.

Her mother passed away early, and her father did not know what kind of disease he suffered from, but he must have lost the ability to work. Social welfare security will provide some assistance, but it cannot give the family enough support.

In particular, Sylvia is also in college, and her younger brother Georgia also has a future to consider.

So Sylvia has been working hard, studying well, can get a lot of scholarships to support her studies, and working part-time outside of her studies can help her family alleviate financial difficulties. In particular, Qin Xiong believes that Weiss-Slot's health , no matter whether long-term treatment fee is needed or not, the minimum health care cost is definitely not low.

The difficult life did not crush Sylvia, nor did it make her surrender, and instead sat in the sports car of those suitors to seek assistance.

Qin Xiong suddenly respected her, feeling as if he had said something wrong just now.

He shouldn't talk too much about his plan to travel, why should he disrupt other people's life plans?

Sloat had heard about Qin Xiong from Georgia before, but he didn't believe it. After all, Qin Xiong is the star of Ajax, but after seeing Qin Xiong and getting in touch with him, he confirmed what Georgia said. The big brother who is reliable and caring for him is real.

Georgia seemed to have heard something, and ran from the living room to the dining room, pressed her hands on the dining table, and asked with bright eyes: "Travel? Are you going on a trip? Is Dad going too? Where are you going?"

Weiss Sloat glanced at Georgia, and then at Sylvia, his eyes seemed to be able to speak: Look, your brother also wants to travel.

Sylvia turned her head to look at Qin Xiong, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay."

In fact, she was excited in her heart, taking her younger brother and Qin Xiong on a trip?You should be able to spend a vacation without any worries.

But when she looked at her father, she concealed her worry.

After dinner, Georgia sat under the Christmas tree and watched entertainment programs on TV. Qin Xiong and Sylvia stood at the window. Sylvia lit a candle, opened the curtains, and put the candle on the window sill. Through the window, the candlelight Although faint, it can also slightly illuminate the street outside the house.

Qin Xiong asked curiously: "Why does every household have to light candles or place a small lamp on the windowsill?"

Sylvia smiled and explained: "This is a tradition in our old community, and it means that on Christmas Eve, it will light the way home for those who go out."

"Well, it's a beautiful tradition. Listening to it makes people feel warm inside."

Sylvia was silent for a while, then suddenly looked at Georgia not far away, and then said to Qin Xiong, "Thank you."

Qin Xiong also turned his head to look at Georgia and shook his head.

He doesn't think he deserves gratitude.

Sylvia was a little dazed, and said lightly: "Georgia has no memory of her mother, and her father's health began to deteriorate six years ago. As a sister, I should spend more time taking care of him and being with him, but I didn't... ..”

Human energy is always limited.

Qin Xiong could imagine that Sylvia had already sacrificed a lot, but she was still blaming herself. Maybe she had to shoulder too much.

Qin Xiong suddenly said: "I'm sorry, I didn't prepare a Christmas present for you."

Sylvia stared at his face, showing a soft smile, but winked playfully, and said, "No, I have already received your gift."

After saying that, she retracted her gaze, looked up at the hazy moon outside the window, the corners of her mouth curled up.

Qin Xiong didn't understand her words for a while, but was attracted by her soft side face, and didn't think about it any more. After a while, he realized that it was not good to stare at the other party like this, so he also looked out the window at the night sky.

When eleven o'clock in the evening came, Qin Xiong chose to say goodbye.

Sylvia personally sent him away, and when they parted at the intersection of the community, the two exchanged a Merry Christmas.

Qin Xiong didn't take a car, he wasn't tired, his heart was happy and sweet.

With a good memory, he returned on foot along the road the taxi driver had driven from.

When he walked through a commercial area at midnight, he didn't go home. Young people who spent Christmas Eve outside gathered in the square, drinking, singing, listening to the music played in the commercial square, and then, at twelve When the hour is approaching, everyone counts down in unison.

"three!!!"

"two!!!"

"one!!!"

"Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!"

Passing by, Qin Xiong couldn't help but stop and watch, and then walked past with his hands in his pockets with a smile on his face. From time to time, strangers would take the initiative to say Merry Christmas to him, or invite him to drink and celebrate, but Qin Xiong frequently waved his hands or shook his head to refuse.

Christmas is full of reunion, warmth and passion.

Qin Xiong, the first Christmas spent in a foreign country in his life, Christmas spent in the real sense, made him fall in love with this festival.

He walked briskly and couldn't help humming Christmas songs. He wanted to go back to the apartment, lie on the bed, and fall asleep happily.

Sylvia was already lying on her own bed, tossing and turning, although she turned off the light, her eyes were always open, and Qin Xiong's figure kept appearing in her mind.

She held the necklace pendant on her neck in the palm of her hand and stared at it in a daze.

It was given to her by her mother, and once belonged to her beautiful and gentle mother.

She couldn't help muttering to herself.

"Mom, I may fall in love with a man, what should I do?"

......

How many people sleepless on Christmas Eve?
