Looking forward to returning home

It was Christmas yesterday, and the street trees on both sides of the street were still decorated with decorations needed for the festival. The lights and festoons were so lively that it was enough to imagine the fiery atmosphere on the road in the past two days.

The festive gimmick was gone, the traffic on this commercial street dropped sharply today, and it was Wednesday, so there were no office workers and student parties.

At the end of the year, at the end of the term, and at the end of the year, two days ago, I was able to take advantage of the festival to be chic, but today I must be beaten back to my original form and honestly doing what I should do.

This situation made An Lin even more satisfied.

But it's better for her to be alone, the whole street belongs to her and Gu Yanxiao, but she still has self-knowledge, she doesn't have this ability for the time being.

This is not the city center of Yangcheng, it is near the commercial plaza in the next area, which An Lin specially chose.

Because the location of the old house is really remote, this is already the closest commercial area to that place.

In addition, because of Gu Shiyong's habit of resting earlier, the opening time was arranged at 06:30. Before the opening time, he urged Gu Yanxiao to leave quickly, so it was less than eight hours before An Lin drove over. point.

On the way here, An Lin had already explained to Gu Yanxiao the reason for her return.

For those who are kind to An Lin, An Lin will naturally remember their kindness.

Gu Shiyong gave her a place to stay in Yangcheng, and it was Gu Shiyong who gave Gu Yanxiao the courage to keep her own.

So it is understandable that she rushed back to attend Gu Shiyong's birthday banquet.

It's just that she didn't show up, so many people must not know about it, and they might say that she is not filial enough.

It doesn't matter to An Lin, right or wrong as long as she has a clear conscience.

She grew up with gossip since she was a child, and she has long been used to it.

It rarely snows in Yangcheng in winter, probably only two or three times a whole winter.

Gu Yanxiao and An Lin walked on the cement paved sidewalk. The road was dry now. She was wearing snow boots, and the soles of her feet would occasionally make a creaking sound.

An Lin covered the lower half of her face tightly with a scarf, only revealing a pair of moist eyes and half of a tall nose bridge, especially the tear mole at the corner of her eye, which tickles people's hearts.

"Is it cold?" An Lin asked her as she walked sideways.

The temperature in Yangcheng has dropped in the past few days, and today's temperature is only five or six degrees. In addition, the air in the south is damp and cold. If you accidentally sneak into your body through the gaps in your clothes, you can't stop it.

An Lin didn't wear gloves on her body, seeing Gu Yanxiao's tender white hands exposed to the air, she couldn't help but be concerned.

Gu Yanxiao is not used to An Lin talking to herself in this tone, probably because she has been in the position of an elder for a long time, most of these words are said to An Lin, and now she just feels that the role has been reversed. It made her feel a little overwhelmed.

She still shook her head and replied, "It's not cold."

In fact, the fingertips have been blown red by the wind.

An Lin let out a long snort in her nasal cavity, because she doubted the authenticity of her words.

She pursed her lips, first glanced at Gu Yanxiao's stiff expression, then reached down and grabbed Gu Yanxiao's hand.

"Why don't you tell me the truth?" An Lin held her hand in her palm, holding it, it was so cold that she felt bitingly cold, she hurriedly warmed it up with the temperature in her palm, then raised her head again, her tone filled with resentment, "It's not cold even though it's frozen like this."

Gu Yanxiao shrank her fingers, but did not dodge, so she could only follow An Lin's wishes.

She looked at An Lin's distressed face, and even stopped her footsteps without knowing it. She saw her lowering her eyes and kept switching her left and right hands back and forth, snuggling up for warmth, just to keep her hands from being so cold.

In fact, An Lin's hands are not too hot, but because one hand is always inserted in the pocket of his windbreaker, it is much better than Gu Yanxiao's rigidly placed on the side of the body.

Few people pass by their side, seeing them so intimate is just a few extra glances before walking casually.

Among the girls, some small movements are normal, which can not attract much attention, and the two of them surrounded their faces so tightly that no one could recognize them.

"An'an." Gu Yanxiao's muffled voice came from the scarf.

"Huh?" An Lin continued to move her hands, and took the time to look up at Gu Yanxiao, but there was only one pair of eyes, and she couldn't see the expression clearly, and didn't know what she wanted to express.

"I'm not used to you talking to me like that."

"How do I talk?" An Lin stopped and looked at her.

Gu Yanxiao shrank her neck uncomfortably, lowered her eyes: "It's nothing."

She was also the initiator of the topic, and she was the one who ended the topic after saying a few words.

An Lin chuckled, then looked down at Gu Yanxiao's hands.

She had always thought that Gu Yanxiao's hands were as she wished, with slender fingers, well-defined joints, delicate and white.

"Who made you unwilling to tell me the truth?" An Lin said, stretched out her right hand to clasp her left hand, and stuffed it into her right pocket, "Go buy a pair of gloves first."

Gu Yanxiao felt the warmth of her palms, felt An Lin's palms clasped with hers, she was stunned, and before she could recover, she was led by An Lin to the small gift shop by the roadside.

She bit her thin lips lightly twice, and said nothing, just glanced across An Lin's coat pocket, and quickly retracted it, a warm current flowed through her chest, and walked forward with her calmly.

Gu Yanxiao is used to standing in front of everyone to resist the wind and rain. Now An Lin's existence seems to have built a safe haven for her alone. When staying with An Lin, she will feel the pain on her shoulder She relieved a lot of the pressure, and felt a lot more relaxed.

In fact, An Lin obviously didn't do anything, but she felt that as long as An Lin was by her side, she had already done many things for her.

This is even more so during the six months since An Lin left.

Why didn't she realize that this girl had such magical power before.

Is it really because I once treated her like a child too much?

But, to be honest, it feels really good.

Gu Yanxiao muttered to himself, a gust of warm wind blew on his face, it was An Lin who opened the glass door of the gift shop.

"What's the matter, come in." An Lin hooked her palm with her hand in her pocket, and she didn't know what she wanted to do when she was suddenly stuck at the door.

"Ah, um." Gu Yanxiao responded, and then walked behind An Lin.

An Lin seemed to be quite familiar with this place. Just as the salesperson in the store wanted to come up to help introduce, she waved her hand and said, "Don't bother, let's go shopping by ourselves."

She also doesn't like the feeling of someone chattering next to her.

Originally, it wasn't long since I came back, and I wanted to spend more time alone with Gu Yanxiao.

The gift shop is quite large, named Yue Xin, and it is a national chain. Gu Yanxiao knows the owner of this shop. It started in Yuecheng, and gradually expanded to the whole country. It took more than ten years.

The heating in the room was turned on a bit, but I didn't feel it at first, but after staying for a while, I felt that my neck was still sweating, and there was also thin and thin sweat overflowing from my forehead.

She wanted to undo a few buttons on the front of the jacket and open the clothes a little, but she couldn't do it with one hand. She lowered her head to look at the one she had put into An Lin's pocket, rolled her throat, and still didn't say anything. Say something to make An Lin relax.

On the contrary, An Lin noticed her abnormality in advance, and took the initiative to let go of her hand, took her hand out of her pocket, and said, "It's hot in the room, don't turn around and get stuffy again."

An Lin was walking in front at first, and felt her palms getting a little wet. Turning around, she saw the sweat dripping from the corner of Gu Yanxiao's forehead, stopped, turned around and pulled her scarf: "This is too hot, isn't it? Why don't you pick it up first."

After speaking, she took out a black mask from her bag and said, "Use this to cover it."

Gu Yanxiao usually doesn't go shopping, especially in this kind of crowded places, which are basically apartments, YA buildings, and old houses. What time is the front line, and he rarely shows up in public, so there is little need to cover up his face.

When I'm with An Lin, I always have to break her many firsts.

"Hmm." Gu Yanxiao took over, first pulled off some scarves to put on the mask, and then silently pulled off the scarves.

Although it hasn't been worn for a long time, it has already attached the light color of her neck.

Fragrance, when An Lin picked it up, it entered her nose along with the air.

She held it expressionlessly, hanging it in her arms.

Recite the Diamond Sutra silently in my heart.

The gloves, scarves and other knitting products in the store are all sold in a special area. An Lin walked in front, and Gu Yanxiao followed her.

"You pick?" An Lin bent her lips, stood side by side with Gu Yanxiao, looked at the various gloves in front of her, and asked aloud.

To be honest, she is a bit of a choice phobic.

Gu Yanxiao knew this.

"Okay." She nodded, and according to An Lin's favorite style, she picked a pure and white one with a bunny pattern, looked at it for a while, and was about to bend down to pick it up. An Lin pressed her hand.

Gu Yanxiao paused, and looked back at her while maintaining this posture, with a puzzled face: "What's wrong?"

"You pick what you like, not for me, but for you."

When she said that, Gu Yanxiao immediately withdrew her hand: "Why buy this for me, I don't need it."

"Who said you don't need it anymore? Tell her to come out and confront me face to face." An Lin said fearlessly, standing up straighter.

"An'an—" Gu Yanxiao patted her lightly, "I have it at home, and I don't lack it, and I don't often use it. It's useless to buy it."

"That's different." An Lin said stubbornly, "What you have is yours. Now this is what I want to buy for you. How can it be the same."

I don't know if it's because of her childish temper, but she just got into a fight with herself on a pair of gloves: "You are still in school, you should know that you should save more money, and don't always spend it randomly."

Gu Yanxiao's words of persuasion were earnest, but An Lin still had no plans to change her mind: "I'm not short of money, and I'm making money. I have a scholarship, and I'm paid in the laboratory, so I can afford everything for myself."

"You don't reject me."

An Lin's tone was solemn, his expression serious, and he didn't mean to be joking at all.

Gu Yanxiao couldn't explain it, but just sighed: "Do you have to buy it?"

"Yeah." An Lin nodded heavily.

"Then since you want to buy it for me, then you can choose it for me." Gu Yanxiao took a step back and gave up most of the seats to An Lin.

"Well—" An Lin hesitated now, and was once again confused by the pile of gloves.

After a while, she pulled off the mask on her face, and looked back at Gu Yanxiao with an aggrieved face, "You are not allowed to say you don't like it when I picked it."

"Of course, I'll like whatever you choose." Seeing her cute behavior, Gu Yanxiao narrowed her eyes and smiled.

It's just that An Lin has some difficulty in choosing, but in fact, the things she buys are very tasteful.

For example, the three sets of business suits she customized for Gu Yanxiao.

It is especially lined with the figure, and the dress also has a different style.

and also......

She thought, then looked down at her wrist, the bracelet on the thin white wrist was exposed, Gu Yanxiao lightly hooked her fingers, revealing her whole body.

She raised her hand to caress twice, then raised her eyes to look at An Lin's tangled face.

In the end, An Lin went to check out with the gloves in her arms, and when she came back, she unpacked the things and helped Gu Yanxiao put them on her hands.

Seeing An Lin's serious expression, Gu Yanxiao couldn't hold back for a while, and asked, "Why do you have to buy me a mask?"

An Lin didn't look up, but the corners of her mouth were raised high, showing her happy mood: "Because I want to spend money for you."

"Of course, not just now." An Lin only helped Gu Yanxiao put on the glove on her right hand, and then patted her palm lightly, making a muffled sound.

She smiled contentedly, with a bright smile on her face: "From now on...to the future, for a long, long time, all my money will be spent on you. In this way, you don't have to work so hard to earn money, because I I can support you."
