"Senior Liu Ziazi's family is so rich?" Zhang Xiaoli exclaimed.

"Not bad." An Ran confirmed.

The fashion show ended quickly amid the cheers of the students.

The overall hardware of the models in this school model team is naturally not comparable to that of professional models, but except Hua Zhan, everyone walked in a very good manner, especially Liu Zizi. Although she is not thin enough or tall enough, her confident and flamboyant body language on the stage has infected the students around her.

Most students may not be able to see this difference, but An Ran can. After all, she was once a guest at the world's four major fashion weeks.

As far as the entire school model team is concerned, although Hua Zhan is the most outstanding in appearance and has the most styles, when he walked on the stage, there was no sign of serious training on his body. He looked casual, as if he was walking out of the classroom after school. If it weren't for his really good hardware, everyone would have complained that he was so perfunctory and why was he going on stage?

There was a hint of scorn in An Ran's eyes. This person's nature remained the same. He would never shed even a drop of sweat where he could be perfunctory.

Therefore, as I got older and became closer to him, his nature of being all show and no substance became more and more apparent.

This person is essentially selfish, lazy and afraid of giving.

It was too easy to get anything I wanted when I was young. When I grew up, I also felt that no matter what I wanted, I could get it easily and there was always a shortcut.

……

"Shi Jian, did you hear the cat's meow?" An Ran walked in the snow-covered campus, slightly tilting her head and looking around. The cold wind blew past her ears, bringing a bit of chill, but also adding a bit of playfulness.

She was wrapped in a long black down jacket with the zipper pulled to the top and the collar turned up, covering An Ran's chin. The sharp contrast between white and black made Jian's eyes flash when she saw it.

"No." Shi Jian raised her hand to tidy up her hair that was messed up by the wind, and turned her head to the side. Although she answered no, she still pretended to listen carefully. However, her eyes were attracted by the paper bag in An Ran's hand again, "Let me help you get your shoes."

He reached out for the paper bag in An Ran's hand, which contained the high heels she had just worn on the stage. With every step she took, there was a slight collision sound, which made him recall the way An Ran had just sat on the stage and talked about love.

"I think I heard it right. It was the sound of a cat, but it was very soft. I'm afraid it's hiding somewhere and we can't see it." An Ran refused Shi Jian's help. As she spoke, she walked forward and started looking for the cat.

Walking in the snow, and not paying enough attention, An Ran suddenly stepped on a patch of slippery snow, her feet softened, and she almost fell. She suddenly threw herself to the side, and ended up falling heavily on the snow. The paper bag flew out in an instant, and her shoes rolled on the snow. It was a scene that neither of them had expected.

"An Ran!" Shi Jian exclaimed and hurried forward. However, just as he was about to reach out to pull her, the snow under his feet could not bear the weight and slipped under his feet, and he fell directly on An Ran.

Shi Jian hurriedly tried to get up, but the snow was too slippery. An Ran was only wearing a white satin dress under her black down jacket, which was also slippery.

So, as he struggled, he got closer to An Ran.

"Don't move yet."

The air suddenly became quiet.

After hearing An Ran's words, Shi Jian didn't dare to move anymore. A burst of fragrance rushed into her nose. It was the light and cold fragrance of An Ran's body, which was more pleasant than the pine and cypress in the snow next to her.

There was a chattering sound behind him. Shi Jian was nervous and embarrassed, so he could only explain in a low voice, "I'm afraid of pressing you."

"I'm not made of glass. I'm not that fragile." An Ran couldn't help laughing. "This is too funny. The road isn't difficult to walk on, so why did we both fall? We could have gone for a skiing competition!"

An Ran's humor and relaxation made Shi Jian less nervous.

Although he was heavy, he was quite tall and had long arms. After finding a foothold, he stood up and reached out to An Ran who was lying on the ground.

An Ran's eyes were attracted by the bright sky behind him, "The sky is so bright tonight."

She lay in the snow, staring at the sky behind the boy in fascination, forgetting the pain of falling.

"It's because the snowflakes reflect and scatter the light."

Shi Jian squatted down and gently held An Ran's arms and shoulders, "Get up, the ground is too wet."

No matter how thick the down jacket is, it cannot withstand long-term penetration.

"Thank you." An Ran stood up with the help of Shi Jian, who then raised his hand and gently helped her brush off the snow on her body.

"Just take some photos. I'll change my clothes when we get back to the dormitory."

"How can I be so casual in such a cold day." Shi Jian smiled helplessly, looking up at An Ran's face that looked even rosier against the white snow, and secretly felt a warmth in his heart.

"I really heard a cat's meow. Listen carefully again." An Ran looked up and her eyes met with Shi Jian's. Their faces were blurry, but the light in their eyes was similarly bright. "I think the cat's meow might be because it is dissatisfied with our fall. It wants to remind us to find it quickly!"

"Yes, that cat hiding somewhere is very powerful. It can actually do this." Shi Jian pretended to be serious, trying to suppress the urge to laugh in his heart, but his tone changed and he couldn't help laughing.

"Oh, what a coincidence! Let's go find it quickly. Where is it?" An Ran turned around and went to look for the cat in the direction she guessed.

Shi Jian patted her wet hands randomly, took a few steps forward, bent down and picked up the high-heeled shoes that had just flown out of An Ran's hands, as proud as if she had picked up some treasure.

Afterwards, he trotted to catch up with An Ran.

"I heard a cat meowing, too. It should be in the bushes ahead."

"Yeah, I think the sound came from there too."

However, as they approached the grove of trees, the atmosphere changed quietly.

The cat's cry from deep in the bushes was sometimes high and sometimes low, with a hint of urgency, as if it was calling for something. An Ran's face also became serious, and she frowned slightly, as if she felt something unusual.

"Do you think...will something happen?" An Ran asked in a low voice, with a hint of uneasiness in her eyes.

"It should be fine. After all, this is a campus." Shi Jian comforted him, although he himself felt vaguely uneasy.

They walked cautiously towards the bushes, and through the dense branches and leaves, they could vaguely see a small figure wandering under the tree. It was a small gray pear flower, covered with white snow, with a panicked look, as if looking for something.

"Meow!" The cat turned its head, saw them, let out a quick cry, then turned and ran back.

Shi Jian and An Ran looked at each other, and with a hint of curiosity in their hearts, they decided to follow.

The cat led the way, crossed a snowy field, and brought them to an empty playground. In the middle of the playground, sat a thin boy with a sad face, a big schoolbag on his back, and a big thermos hanging on his chest.

The two were startled. An Ran walked lightly to the little boy and asked softly, "Baby, what's wrong with you? Why are you here alone?"

There was concern in her eyes.

The boy looked up, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, then he lowered his head, "I... I lost my kitten, it ran away, and I looked for it for a long time." His voice was weak, as if swallowed by the cold wind.

"Are you talking about the cat?" Shi Jian pointed at the small pear blossom in the bushes, her heart tightening.

That little life did not appear for no reason.

"Yes! That's my kitten, named Coke." The boy's voice suddenly became excited, and he looked up at Shi Jian and An Ran, "Have you seen it?"

"We just saw a cat, it should be your Coke." An Ran's voice was filled with a hint of comfort, trying to make herself appear relaxed.

"Really?" The boy's eyes flashed with hope, "Is it over there?"

"We can take you to find it!" Shi Jian also softened her voice, "But can you tell me where your parents are? Why are you here alone so late at night?"

Compared to a lost cat, this lost child needs more attention.

"My parents are working overtime." The little boy stood up and ran to the woods. "I was doing my homework at home alone. Suddenly the door was blown open by the wind and Kele ran out. I had to go out to find Kele."

Coke ran so fast that he could chase it at first. But when they left home and went outside, it was so dark that Coke ran away and he couldn't find it.

"Are you the only one at home?" An Ran quickly caught up with the child and asked patiently, "Where are you from? Is it there?"

She pointed in the direction of the school cafeteria.

The school has a place where children live, and apart from the teachers' children living in the staff dormitories, there are also families of the staff working in the school cafeteria.

"No, I live in Room 3, 301rd Floor, Mingde Hall." The little boy looked thin and small, but he remembered his home address clearly.

Mingde Hall is the dormitory for teachers and staff of No. 1 Middle School. Anran breathed a sigh of relief. Since the child is a school teacher's child, it would be easier to find the child's parents.

"Coke, Coke." Compared to going home, the little boy was more focused on finding his cat.

He quickly came to the bushes, poked his little head inside and shouted loudly.

"Little boy, is your schoolbag heavy? Do you want me to carry it for you?" Shi Jian walked to the other side of the little boy.

The little boy was very independent, "I can carry it myself. Where did you see my cat just now?"

An Ran pointed to the place where Xiao Lihua had just appeared, "Little friend, wait here. I'll go in and help you find it. Don't go. It's not easy to walk in there."

"You don't go either. I'll go." Shi Jian quickly grabbed An Ran who was rushing forward and quickly stuffed the high heels in his hand into hers.

"Then you better be careful." An Ran quickly took out her cell phone from her pocket, turned on the light and handed it to him.

"Okay, you wait for me here." After taking An Ran's phone, Shi Jian walked towards the grove alone.

Looking at his receding back, the little boy gently leaned towards An Ran, "It's so dark, will brother be scared to go find Coke alone?"

"My brother has grown up and won't be afraid." The main reason is that this is a small woods on the campus. There are people coming and going usually, so it is very safe.

If it was some unfamiliar grove outside the school, she wouldn't feel comfortable letting Shi Jian go alone.

An Ran squatted down in front of the little boy and looked at him with a smile. "My name is An Ran, and I'm a student in Class 1, Grade 1. What's your name, please?"

"My name is Wu Haoxuan, and I'm in Class 15, Grade 1." The little boy's voice was much louder than before.

"Wow, you're a first-grader." An Ran looked at Wu Haoxuan with admiration, "You were really brave today. You actually dared to come out alone to look for Coke. However, if Coke runs out again next time, it would be better if you could ask your parents or other elders to help you look for him together."

After hearing An Ran's words, Haoxuan immediately asked, "Sister, can you take me to find Coke? I don't want to wait here anymore."

"I can take you to the woods to look for the cat, but if we get wet when we go to the woods to look for the cat, you have to go home with me and change your clothes, okay?"

"Okay." Little Haoxuan nodded seriously.

Anran took his hand and walked towards the bushes again.

Fortunately, the cat seemed to sense the breath of its owner and called rapidly, as if guiding them.

As they got closer, the cat's meows became louder and louder, as if it was expressing its inner anxiety.

Finally, Shi Jian in front turned around in surprise, "It's there."

An Ran and Hao Xuan looked in the direction his finger pointed and found that the little pear flower they had seen earlier was resting at the root of a big tree, curled up in a ball with a nervous look on its face.

Little Haoxuan let go of Anran's hand, rushed over, gently picked up the cat, his eyes filled with tears, "Kole, why are you running so fast? I can't see you."

An Ran and Shi Jian watched quietly from the side. When Hao Xuan calmed down and was already hugging the cat and being intimate, they quietly walked to his side and said, "Hao Xuan, do you remember your parents' phone numbers? I'll see where they are and take you to find them, okay?"

Haoxuan quickly gave a phone number: "My father's phone number is 134..."

An Ran quickly took out her cell phone and dialed the number given by Hao Xuan.

As soon as the phone rang, the other end answered it, "Hello? Hello..."

An anxious and deep male voice came from the other end.

"Hello, are you Teacher Wu?"

"I am, are you?"

"I'm An Ran. Are you looking for little Wu Haoxuan?"

"Yes, yes, Wu Haoxuan is my son. Where is he?"

"We are in the grove next to the school playground." An Ran accurately stated her purpose and once again informed the male teacher on the phone, who breathed a sigh of relief, of the surrounding environment and address in detail.

"Okay, thank you, thank you, I'll be there now. Can you please help look after my son?"

"Don't worry, I will stay here with him and wait for you to come." An Ran smiled at the little boy who was holding Xiao Lihua and looking up at her.
