not my cat

The winter in Nanming is extremely cold this year, and the end of this semester is approaching, and the New Year's Eve will soon be ushered in.

Ji Jin plans to spend New Year's Eve with Zhao Maixun this year, but he doesn't know that Xie He won't allow it.

Ji Jin: 【Student Zhao Xiaoxun, can I come to your house to celebrate the new year with you today? 】

Zhao Maixun put down the towel for wiping her hair, picked up her phone and looked at it, she thought for a while.

Zhao Maixun: [You should stay at home with your parents. 】

Ji Jin: [Don't you want me to accompany you? ! ! 】

Zhao Maixun stared at the screen and smiled: [No, of course such an important day must be spent with my family, don't worry, I can do it alone. 】

Ji Jin pouted: [Okay. 】

When Ji Jin walked to the window, the snow outside had already covered the window sill. She opened the window and the cold wind rushed in. She caught a piece of snow with her hands. This was definitely the biggest snow that Nanming had ever seen.

"Thinking of a cold?" Xie He came in and closed the open window without knowing why: "Call your sister and ask when she will be back."

Ji Jin: "My sister?"

Xie He: "Yes, she just said that she has arrived at the station."

In the past, Ji Zhinan didn't go home during the New Year's Eve, but he came back this year for some reason.

Ji Jin nodded and dialed Ji Zhinan's phone: "Hey, sister, where have you been?"

Ji Zhinan: "Downstairs, come down and help me get things."

Just as Ji Jin was about to refuse, there was a beep of hanging up on the phone, so she had no choice but to put on her down jacket and go downstairs.

Ji Zhinan stood at the stairs and kept rubbing her hands and exhaling. She forgot to check the weather forecast before she came. She didn't expect the temperature in Nanming to be so low.

"It's so light and you want me to come down and get it?" Ji Jin lifted the thing on the ground, thinking it was something heavy, but it turned out to be incredibly light.

Ji Zhinan: "Isn't there a lot of stuff, what's wrong with asking you to do something?"

"Tch, I think it's because Miss Lin Chu is too spoiled with you." Ji Jin muttered in a low voice.

But Ji Zhinan heard it clearly: "What did you say?" She pinched Ji Jin's face: "I think you are not too old or young now."

Ji Jin tactically leaned back: "It hurts, it hurts, I was wrong, I was wrong.

Ji Jin suddenly thought of something: "Hey, by the way, why didn't Sister Lin Chu come back with you?"

Ji Zhinan: "Her company has something to do and can't come."

"Okay." Ji Jin felt a little disappointed. She hadn't seen Lin Chu for a long time. If Lin Chu hadn't interceded for her last time, she didn't know what would have happened.

After opening the door, Xie He had prepared food on the table, and the strong aroma had already permeated the whole room.

"Why are you wearing so little clothes?" Xie He put down the spoon in his hand and ran to the door, looking at Ji Zhinan distressedly.

Ji Zhinan sniffed: "I didn't read the weather forecast, I didn't know Nanming was so cold."

Ji Jin outside the door was carrying big and small bags, and looked at them helplessly: "You two go in and chat, I still have things in my hand."

Ji Zhinan looked around: "Where's my dad?"

Xie He put away the bowls and chopsticks: "Your dad led the team to the game. Today is just the three of us. Come and eat."

The food was delicious, but Ji Jin just took a few mouthfuls and put down her chopsticks. She ran into the kitchen and took out the thermos: "Mom, I'm full. Eat slowly. I'll go out for a while."

"It's so cold outside, where are you going?" Xie He looked at the thermos bucket in Ji Jin's hand: "What is this for?"

Ji Jin: "Zhou Yichi is at home alone, I'll bring him some dumplings."

Xie He hesitated for a while and agreed: "Okay, go and come back quickly."

Ji Zhinan knew with her sixth sense that Ji Jin definitely wasn't looking for Zhou Yichi, but she didn't say anything and didn't stop her.

Zhao Maixun opened the refrigerator, and there was nothing in it except a few bottles of mineral water. She sighed, as if Ji Jin wasn't here, she was sleeping, but she had slept enough today.

Zhao Maixun wanted to send a text message to Ji Jin to ask what she was doing, but after thinking that Ji Jin must not be free right now, she closed the dialog again.

The snow was falling more and more on the road, and a thick layer of snow had already accumulated on the ground. Ji Jin ran in the snow with the thermos bucket in his arms.

Just as Zhao Maixun was about to turn off the light and go back to bed, there was a knock on the door. She looked into the cat's eyes and opened the door: "Ji Jin? Why are you here?"

Ji Jin's nose was already red from the cold, and there were still a few pieces of unmelted snow on her head. She looked at Zhao Maixun with a smile on her face.

Zhao Maixun frowned, and helped her pat the snow off her clothes: "Why are you so stupid, why don't you stay at home obediently in such a cold day, what are you doing here?"

"Who said, I'm so hot, can I be called stupid if I come to see you?" Ji Jin said as he raised the thermos bucket in his hand: "I brought you dumplings, eat them while they're hot."

Zhao Maixun found a towel for Ji Jin to wipe her hair. For some reason, the happier Ji Jin smiled, the more distressed she was.

Ji Jin was worried that the dumplings had become cold along the way: "Are the dumplings cold? I'll go to reheat them."

Just as Ji Jin was about to get up, Zhao Maixun grabbed her sleeve: "No need for Ji Jin, it's still hot."

Zhao Maixun took a bite of the dumpling and it was warm, but now she only wants Ji Jin by her side.

Ji Jin held his face in his hands and looked at Zhao Maixun with a smirk: "It's delicious, I made it with my mother and I."

Zhao Maixun nodded: "Well, it's delicious."

She suddenly felt that her eyes were a little wet, but she was afraid that Ji Jin would find out, so she dared not wipe away her tears with her hands, "Is this the feeling of being loved?"

"What's wrong?" Ji Jin saw Zhao Maixun's red eyes: "Why are you crying?"

Zhao Maixun smiled, but tears rolled down his eyes, "It's okay, the dumplings are so delicious."

Ji Jin helped her wipe away tears while coaxing: "I'll make it for you every day after it's delicious, but you're not allowed to cry now."

After eating, Zhao Maixun looked at the time and it was almost eleven o'clock. Although he was a bit reluctant to part with Ji Jin, he was still afraid that her family would worry if she went back late: "It's getting late, Ji Jin, should I go home?"

Ji Jin: "It's okay, I told my mother, I will go back later."

Zhao Maixun was still worried: "No, it's too late on the road and it's not safe."

"Oh, don't worry." Ji Jin pulled her into his arms: "I'll be fine."

On the other hand, Xie He was also worried because Ji Jin hadn't come home yet. She called Ji Jin but no one answered her phone. After thinking about it, she decided to call Zhou Yichi to inquire about the situation.

Zhou Yichi: "Hey, Aunt Xie, what's the matter?"

Xie He: "Hey, Xiaochi, Ji Jin said she went to look for you, but I didn't answer her phone call. Is she with you now?"

Zhou Yichi: "Ah... Ji Jin? Yes, yes, she is with me."

Xie He: "Then I'm relieved, why are you so noisy over there?"

Zhou Yichi raised the volume: "We are watching fireworks, don't worry, Auntie, we will go back early."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yichi began bombarding Ji Jin with messages, but there was no response from the other side.

"Change your clothes, and I'll take you somewhere." Ji Jin thought of something and suddenly got up and said.

Zhao Maixun: "Where are you going?"

Ji Jin looked at his watch: "You'll know when you go, now it's too late, change your clothes quickly."

Zhao Maixun didn't ask much, as long as she was with Ji Jin, she was willing to go anywhere.

It was very cold outside and the temperature was close to minus ten degrees, but the two of them held hands, and the temperature of their palms was as hot as their hearts. There were many people by the lake and they finally squeezed to the front position. Ji Jin knew that there would be fireworks here every New Year's Eve, but I was tired of seeing it before so I seldom come here.

The tall buildings on the other side have already displayed the countdown to the New Year, and everyone counted together: "3, 2, 1, Happy New Year."

Fireworks are everywhere in the sky, dazzling and charming, and the light and shadow are looming on their faces, no one notices them, they hug and kiss.

Ji Jin whispered in her ear: "I love you."

Zhao Maixun saw that there seemed to be light shining in her eyes, and she couldn't tell what it was for a moment. She responded, "Thank you for showing up, I love you too."

Soon the fireworks show was almost heard. This was Zhao Maixun's happiest and most memorable New Year's Eve.

"Damn, Ji Jin, you are here."

Ji Jin turned her head when she heard the sound: "Zhou Yichi? Why are you here?" She looked at Zhang Siyue next to Zhou Yichi and raised her eyebrows: "What's the situation with you two?"

Zhou Yichi was not interested in joking with her: "Stop being poor soon, check your phone, your mother has called you so many times, she has found me here."

Ji Jin immediately took out his mobile phone, which showed dozens of missed calls, all of which were from Xie He and Ji Zhinan, Ji Jin immediately went back and told Xie He that he would be back soon.

Zhou Yichi: "You and Teacher Zhao go home quickly, we should go too."

Saying goodbye to Zhou Yichi, Ji Jin and Zhao Maixun walked to the crossroads, she wanted to send Zhao Maixun home, but Zhao Maixun refused because of time constraints, she told Ji Jin to go home quickly, not because she let Ji Jin's family is worried.

Zhao Maixun patted her head: "Go home quickly, don't send me off."

Ji Jin: "Okay, you have to pay attention to safety when you go home, and send me a message when you get home."

Zhao Maixun: "You too, go quickly, I will watch you go."

Ji Jin took a few steps forward, then turned around and waved to Zhao Maixun to signal her to go home soon.

Zhao Maixun waited until Ji Jin's figure was about to disappear under the streetlight, and Zhao Maixun suddenly shouted: "Ji Jin!"

Ji Jin stopped and turned to look at Zhao Maixun.

Zhao Maixun: "Thank you for taking me to watch the fireworks today. I am very happy. I will always remember today!"

Ji Jin: "You're welcome, I will show you many, many times the fireworks in the future!"

On the way home, Ji Jin walked and danced happily. The girl's heart seemed to be hot forever, because she met someone who wanted to protect her for the rest of her life.

"Where did you go? See what time it is now, why is no one answering the phone?" Opening the door, Xie He was already standing at the door.

"I went to watch the fireworks with Zhou Yichi, and I may have accidentally pressed my phone." Ji Jin explained.

"Oh, Mom, just let her go, I don't think she's lying." Ji Zhinan also came up to help.

Ji Jin heaved a sigh of relief, thanks to Ji Zhinan helping her speak, Xie He didn't ask any more questions.

When Zhao Maixun returned home, the beautiful fireworks just now seemed to be in front of her eyes, but this beauty did not last long. The next morning, she was woken up by the notification sound of a text message on her mobile phone.

It was that number that she hated again, the message Fu Dongcheng sent her.

Fu Dongcheng: [I'll be waiting for you at the coffee shop downstairs at twelve o'clock today, and I want to show you something good. 】

Fu Dongcheng: [If you don't come, you will regret it for the rest of your life. 】
