I don't know when it started snowing outside.Chilling and silence, silently.

Ling Anxiu and Xiao An came out of the restaurant, only to see a vast expanse of whiteness everywhere, and there were hardly anyone around.

Ling Anxiu looked at his watch and couldn't help being surprised: "It took so long to eat."

"I'm surprised you weren't strangled."

Although apparently the two of them ate together, since Xiao An didn't need "meaningless human food" to replenish energy, Ling Anxiu was eating the whole process, and Xiao An watched silently.But even so, Ling Anxiu still ate for two full hours.

"It's cold." Ling Anxiu muttered in a low voice, putting his hands into the pockets of his windbreaker.

Xiao An glanced at Ling Anxiu indifferently, and stretched out her hand to him, "Give me your hand."

Ling Anxiu smiled, and held Xiao An's hand.

Xiaoan's hand is very warm, completely exceeding the normal human body temperature. In this kind of weather, it is simply a god-sent stove. Holding it in the palm makes people warm up together.

There was still a short distance from the restaurant to the parking lot, and no one was watching anyway, Ling Anxiu held Xiao An's hand generously, and stepped on the snow with one foot.

Ling Anxiu suddenly thought of something, and smiled wickedly: "If others see it, they will definitely think that we are in that kind of relationship."

"Which?"

"Nursing and being taken care of. Outside you are a beautiful boy under 20 years old, and I am an uncle who is nearly [-] years old. On this cold snowy night, I will take you home and enjoy it."

Xiao An gave Ling Anxiu a look of "you are bored enough", "Are you still planning to spend the night at my house today?"

"Maybe."

"That's your home, and if you want to leave, you must leave with Shen Zhou."

Ling Anxiu looked at Xiao An with some surprise, "Are you trying to defend me? Actually, I really don't want to live in that big villa. I'm lonely, but I don't want to stay with Shen Zhou."

"What did you tell him yesterday?"

"say what?"

"The thing about you staying out all night."

Ling Anxiu chuckled, "There's nothing to say about it. What I think is my own business, and it has nothing to do with him."

Xiaoan was walking, and suddenly stopped.Ling Anxiu asked, "What's wrong?"

"listen."

Ling Anxiu pricked up his ears and listened carefully for a while, "Is it the sound of a violin? Maybe some artist is playing street art."

"It's Shen Zhou."

"How do you know?" Ling Anxiu could barely hear the sound of the piano, but couldn't see the person playing the piano.

"I know." Xiao An said firmly, "Let's go, I'll take you to have a look."

The two walked towards the source of the sound of the piano, only to see a young man standing in front of a luxury hotel, with Gothic street lamps emitting dim light.Under the light, the snowflakes swirled and turned, and finally fell on the young man's shoulders.From time to time, cars passed by with their lights on, illuminating the young man's slender and straight body.

Even on such a cold night, Shen Zhou didn't wear very thick clothes. Maybe he was not afraid of the cold, maybe he had to show the elegance of a violinist. He only wore a woolen suit with a button in the middle. Buttons, but the waistline is still very nice.

Ling Anxiu was able to come out and play Shenzhou a serenade. On a quiet snowy night, the sound of the piano was particularly melodious.I don't know if it was because of the sound of the piano, or because of Shen Zhou's outstanding appearance, many hotel guests stopped to watch his performance.People who can stay in this hotel will definitely not be short of money, and the money is very generous, and the exquisite box at the foot of Shen Zhou is already full of money.

Ling Anxiu looked at it for a while, then his eyes fell on Shen Zhou's hands that were red from the cold—the harvest was so rich, he must have stood for a long time in the snowy night, and still wore so little, it must be very cold.

"Let's go." Ling Anxiu turned around, and the melodious sound of the piano gradually disappeared in Ling Anxiu's ears.He couldn't understand that Shen Zhou had moved back to the villa now. Although he hadn't unfrozen Shen Zhou's account yet, he had everything at home. As soon as he finished eating the food in the refrigerator, he would call someone and someone would deliver it. He still puts a closet full of clothes there.With food and clothing, why does Shen Zhou still stand on the street performing arts in the winter night?

Xiao An rented an apartment near the school, and Ling Anxiu lived here for the past two days.As soon as the two returned to the apartment, Ling Anxiu received a call from Shen Zhou.Ling Anxiu hesitated for a while, but still pressed the answer button.

"Hello?" Shen Zhou seemed very pleasantly surprised that the call could be connected, "Anxiu?"

"Ah."

"When are you coming back? I've prepared supper for you." Even across the phone, Ling Anxiu could still feel the smile in his voice.

"I'm not going back."

"Aren't you coming back again?" Shen Zhou was very disappointed, "You didn't come home yesterday, is it because the company is too busy?"

Ling Anxiu remembered what he said to Xiao An, "What I think is my own business, it has nothing to do with him", but for some reason, when he actually faced Shen Zhou, he was a little bit speechless.Maybe it was because he thought that he would use his frostbitten hands to prepare supper for himself as soon as he returned from the outside, so it was a bit difficult to say unfeeling words.

In the end Ling Anxiu just gave a vague "hmm" and hung up the phone.

The snow fell all day and night, and finally stopped, and the whole city has entered the coldest snowmelt period this winter.Of course, for Ling Anxiu who is in an environment with air conditioning and heating almost all the time, the weather has never been his concern.Sitting in the warm car, he called Xiao An and told him what he wanted to eat that night. Ling Anxiu sat lazily, looking at the snowy scenery outside the window with boredom. At the same time, the driver sitting in front said something This word.

"stop."

Ling Anxiu spoke suddenly, but the professional driver stopped the car smoothly.Ling Anxiu frowned and looked at the young man who stood up at the hotel entrance, feeling more and more puzzled in his heart.

——Shen Zhou, what else do you want to do?Do you still want to prove your outlook on life to me?Tell me you can live with your art even without me?

Even though his hands were almost swollen into steamed buns, he was still playing seriously.

"madness."

"Ah?" The driver said in fear, "Mr. Ling..."

"I'm not talking about you." Ling Anxiu looked at it for a while, took out some money from his wallet, and said, "Give it to him."

The driver got out of the car and threw the money into the box as promised.Shen Zhou immediately stopped playing, and asked in surprise, "Will this be too much?"

The driver smiled: "You pulled well, you deserve it."

A grateful smile appeared on Shen Zhou's face flushed from the cold, "Thank you!"

Ling Anxiu watched coldly.Isn't it about self-esteem?Now I am so happy to accept other people's charity, I really don't understand the thinking of young people nowadays.

Ling Anxiu lived in Xiao An's house for a week, and the more he lived, the more comfortable he became. There was no way, Xiao An was a professional household robot.Shen Zhou would call every day, and Ling Anxiu would say a few words at first, but then he simply refused to answer.But Shen Zhou didn't give up and changed to texting.In Ling Anxiu's opinion, the content of the text message was extremely boring, either telling him to eat on time or telling him to wear more clothes.But for some reason, Ling Anxiu still felt uncomfortable looking at such meaningless text messages.Ling Anxiu was no stranger to this inexplicable, unclear feeling.It seems that every time the mission comes to an end, he will be like this. Even if the mission is completely successful, he will feel heavy in his heart, and he doesn't seem to have the pleasure of being a winner.

Maybe this world is not perfect, no one can be an exception.

"Don't tell me your vacation plan hasn't been cancelled!" May shouted angrily, pointing at her boss.

"Huh?" Ling Anxiu looked innocent, "Why should I cancel?"

"Now is the busiest time for the company! Several projects are about to start running, so why are you leaving now?"

Ling Anxiu patted Ah May's shoulder reassuringly, "It's not that the earth won't turn around without me, maybe it will turn better. Besides, you have to learn to live without me."

Ah May was taken aback, "What do you mean?"

"Nothing interesting." Ling Anxiu shrugged, "Alright, I'm going back to pack my things now. Excuse me."

Open the door of the house, there is no movement inside.It was also at this time that Shen Zhou was still in class, and Ling Anxiu planned to go back to his room to pack his things.He always feels aggrieved these days, so it's good to go out and relax.

"Anxiu?"

Ling Anxiu was taken aback, turned around, and saw Shen Zhou standing behind him with a happy face, like a little beast that wanted to get close to its master but was afraid of being scolded by him.

"Why are you at home? Didn't go to class?"

Shen Zhou said embarrassingly: "My hand is injured, and I can't play the piano for the time being. The teacher asked me to rest for a few days."

Ling Anxiu glanced at Shen Zhou's terribly cold hands, recalling his slender and fair hands before, and thought: Who told you to do some street entertainment.

"Oh, then you should take a good rest." Ling Anxiu said lightly.

"Yeah." Shen Zhou obediently said, "Anxiu, have you eaten?"

"not yet."

"What do you want to eat? I'm going to make it now... wait, I'll go see what's left in the refrigerator..."

Ling Anxiu was impatient, "Forget it, it's better not to touch the water with your hands, just order takeaway."

After a simple dinner, Ling Anxiu went to the bedroom to pack his things.Shen Zhou followed in, a little shyly said: "Anxiu, this is for you."

Ling Anxiu raised his head, took the envelope Shen Zhou handed him, and opened it to find two tickets for a baseball game inside.

It was only then that Ling Anxiu remembered that a baseball game was going to be held in the sports center recently, both sides were well-known figures in the national team, and the ticket prices soared all the way.

"In the future, you will invite me to the concert, but this time I will invite you. Do you like baseball?" Shen Zhou asked nervously, while carefully observing Ling Anxiu's face.

"This... is expensive, right?"

When Shen Zhou heard this, he said anxiously: "I bought this with my pocket money, not yours..."

Ling Anxiu looked at Shen Zhou, "I know."

Shen Zhou showed a bright smile, "Anxiu, I have thought a lot these days when you are not here. You always think that I am with you because of material conditions. I do not deny that there was indeed this factor in the beginning. Now I say that I It's because of you that I'm with you, and you won't believe it."

"Yes, I won't believe it."

A trace of loneliness flashed in Shen Zhou's eyes, "So I don't plan to go on like this. Anxiu, I don't want you to support me. I want to be financially independent and be with you with a new attitude. In the future, I will use my own money to support you. Date with you, buy you a gift, invite you to watch your favorite movie... Uh, it’s just that I can’t pay the rent for the time being, can I use the housework to offset part of it?”

Ling Anxiu just looked at him.

"Ah, it doesn't matter if you can't, I'll still..."

Ling Anxiu interrupted Shen Zhou, "You like playing the violin, don't you?"

"Uh?"

"I know you like it. As an artist, your hands are very important. Don't do anything that hurts your hands in the future."

Shen Zhou's face flushed slightly, he nodded, then shook his head, "You are very important to me."

Ling Anxiu sneered, "Is it more important than the violin?"

Just as Shen Zhou was about to answer, Ling Anxiu said, "Forget it, let's not talk about this, it's boring to compare. There are some things that can never be compared."

"Then, have you accepted my proposal?" Shen Zhou asked expectantly.

"What proposal?"

"Even if we interact as equals."

Ling Anxiu sighed, "Sometimes, some things even you can't figure out. Just like two years ago, you thought you might love me, but in fact you just didn't want to give up the life you have. You can ask You yourself, do you believe in your feelings now?"

Shen Zhou stared at Ling Anxiu's face, and said word by word: "I believe I love you. Still. Always. Forever."

Ling Anxiu was silent for a while, then suddenly laughed, he patted Shen Zhou's face, "I think it's not bad for you to learn acting."

Ling Anxiu's words made Shen Zhou's whole body icy cold, as if even his soul had been pulled out of his broken body.His heart was beating too hard, and his chest hurt so much that he couldn't speak. He could only repeat stubbornly: "I didn't act, I didn't..."

The young man's hair hung in front of his forehead in a mess, Ling Anxiu subconsciously rubbed his hair as before, stretched his hand halfway, paused in the air for a while, and finally let it hang down.

"I'm leaving first, the company has something else to do."

"Anxiu."

"Ok?"

Shen Zhou's voice was visibly trembling, "Will you go to the game?"

Ling Anxiu paused, but he never looked back. "Shen Zhou, in this world, you are either lonely or vulgar."

"We can go." Xiao An said.

Hisaishi's "Castle in the Sky" violin solo echoed in the room, Ling Anxiu slowly opened his eyes, without any expression on his face, "Let's go."

The blue beam took the two people away without leaving a trace, as if they had never been there.

As the light faded away, the thin piece of paper fell into darkness again.
