It has snowed all afternoon, and the ground is a little slippery. The snow in the city is not easy to accumulate. It feels good to drive a car on it. On the sidewalk next to it, there are rarely pedestrians walking. They walk carefully, and they are wrapped in clothes. The thick down jacket looks like a little penguin.

Zhou Lin drove slowly, and he was not in a hurry. The street lights were the same as before, still illuminating the road ahead.

As he approached the community, Zhou Lin suddenly saw his neighbor walking by the side of the road.

The tall man wrapped in a black down jacket, carrying two large bags in his hands, was walking hard in the wind and snow.

The snow was still falling, and Ding Yi was carrying two big bags in one hand and an umbrella in the other. With the northwest wind blowing in his face, his face and stomach were covered with wind and snow.

It's not like the snow in the north, it's dry, their city S is located on the southern coast, the snow basically melts when it falls on the ground, and it turns into small water droplets when it falls on the body.

Ding Yi's body was half wet, his back was sweating, and he was in a mess. In his heart, he sent something kindly to himself, but he sent it to Lin Zhizhou who was halfway there and greeted him several times.

Drip, drop.

A car's horn blared nearby.

Ding Yi glanced at it. At this point in time, there were not many cars on the road, so Zhou Lin's car that slowed down was particularly conspicuous.

The car window was lowered, and Zhou Lin shouted to the people outside: "Go home? I'll take you."

Ding Yi didn't show any pretense, and got into the car directly.

He put his things in the trunk of the car and got into the co-pilot by himself.

"Thank you, it's terrible to walk back in this weather."

Seeing that his body was covered with water, Zhou Lin motioned him to wipe it off with a tissue from the car.

"Thank you."

Ding Yi thanked him again.

The music in the car's stereo was playing "The Sound of Snow Falling", the singer's voice was soft and gentle.

The heat from the air conditioner enveloped Ding Yi, dispelling the chill all over his body.

The people around him were leading him home.

Ding Yi paused for a moment with his hands wiping the water on his body, and his eyes fell on Zhou Lin's body involuntarily.

Zhou Lin was driving the car, his eyes fell on the front, he didn't smile, his expression looked a little cold, no, in my impression, he has always been such a cold person, the first time we met, knocking on the door of his house in the middle of the night, borrowing His family, praise him for the delicious instant noodles, he is like a snowflake, icy cold.

He seemed to be completely different from that WeChat friend named "Lin".

"what happened?"

Zhou Lin noticed it the moment Ding Yi's eyes fell on his face.

Ding Yi didn't look away immediately, but stared at him frankly, and said, "I saw you go out this afternoon, and thought you were going home for New Year's Eve dinner, but I didn't expect you to come back now, I was wondering if your family is Not local."

Zhou Lindao: "It's from the local area. Just after dinner, everyone went out to do some activities, so I came back."

It sounds like the taste of the New Year has faded, and people in modern times don't pay so much attention to the New Year and the formality, just get together and have a meal.

Ding Yi and Zhou Lin were not that familiar either. This topic started, and he didn't know how to end it, so he just said: "Your family eats the New Year's Eve dinner quite early, and I haven't started yet."

This speech is also quite straight.

Zhou Lin smiled, but didn't answer.

Soon the car drove into the community, and when getting out of the car, Zhou Lin helped Ding Yi carry a bag and went upstairs.

After pressing the elevator floor button, Ding Yi suddenly said, "Do you want to go upstairs?"

Zhou Lin turned his head to look at him, and saw that the other party was also looking at him.

It's hard to see that the other party just blurted out impulsive words, or seriously invited him on this happy family day, and the two lonely families hugged each other to keep warm.

Ding Yi waited for a while, but didn't wait for Zhou Lin's answer, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Zhou Lin is not Lin Zhizhou after all, not his roommate who has been with him for many years, he just thought of a few words on the scene, and ignored this matter.

After this awkward pause, Zhou Lin suddenly nodded, "Okay, sorry to bother you."

Ding Yi: "Don't bother, I caused you trouble before, and I didn't apologize to you properly."

The elevator reached the floor of Zhou Lin's house, and the door opened and closed.

The next level up is Ding Yi's house.

The two carried their bags and entered the house. Ding Yi's house seemed to be completely cleaned up. When Zhou Lin came here before, he could still see one or two unpacked boxes and bags, and now they are gone.

It seems that the young lady really broke up with someone and took all her things away.

The completely masculine room and furnishings look clean and tidy.

Zhou Lin changed his mind and thought again, it might be the Chinese New Year, so he specially cleaned it up.

Anyway, he has never seen a few single men whose house can be cleaned up. Even he, sometimes he piled up in a mess when he was busy. His younger brother Zhou Shi came over and said that his house was a pigsty and there was nowhere to lay his feet.

"Sit as you like."

Ding Yi greeted him, and went to the kitchen with two bags.

Zhou Lin had seen this person's cooking skills before, so he didn't know what he was going to cook in the kitchen, but he didn't intend to go into the kitchen to help the leader.

However, Ding Yi didn't plan to do anything, so he entered the kitchen and came out soon.

He held two plates in his hands, and the smell of food came from them.

Zhou Lindao: "Have you packed your bags?"

Ding Yi simply moved the dishes to the coffee table in the living room, "You know my cooking skills. For Chinese New Year, let me go and pack some food outside."

He was going to make it himself, and even bought the vegetables, but when he took it home, he not only had to cook it in a pot, but also had to deal with it in various ways, looking for a how-to video, and suddenly lost that interest.

It happened that Lin Zhizhou called him and said that he had packed food and wanted to come over to celebrate the New Year with him, and asked him to go out to pick up things, so he went.

Who knows, after receiving someone, Lin Zhizhou said that he was going to run a delivery order for a former colleague of his, so he had to come back alone, and met Zhou Lin on the way.

Seeing that Ding Yi went to the kitchen again, Zhou Lin followed him and asked him, "Is there anything else? Let me help you."

He just came to the door to eat, empty-handed, and he felt sorry for his conscience and just sat and watched the master busy.

Ding Yi was not polite in this matter, and said along the way: "There are two more dishes, and the fruit in the bag should be put on a plate."

The two of them worked together, and quickly put all the dishes on the table, as well as fruits and peanuts, and Ding Yi brought out two more bottles of wine.

"Drink some? Red wine, or white wine?"

Zhou Lin didn't like to drink red wine, so he pointed to another bottle and said, "White wine."

Ding Yi went to fetch two more cups.

It can be seen that this wine should not be Ding Yi's favorite drink. The wine glasses that this man took out were two red wine glasses, and there were a few words printed on the wine glasses. It seemed that he bought red wine as a gift.

"this?"

Zhou Lin raised his eyebrows.

Ding Yi poured a little into each of the two cups, not much, just three or two.

"I still have glass teacups and beer mugs at home."

In this comparison, the two red wine glasses look a lot more delicate.

Zhou Lin lost his temper. This person looks delicate, but his life is rough.Just like before, when the water leaked into his house, he thought it was an unreliable scumbag, but he didn't expect that he had a good temper and attitude when he came into contact with him.

Now I just feel that people's house is quite clean, and the stuffing is leaked on the wine glass again.

"That's it, it's good."

He picked up the wine glass and shook it, and Ding Yi took a seat with him and sat on the carpet in front of the coffee table, reaching out to touch the glass with him.

Ding.

The glass made a crisp sound.

"Happy New Year's Eve." Ding Yi said.

On the TV, the Spring Festival Gala program is full of singing and dancing, which is very lively.

Amidst the joyous singing and laughter, Zhou Lin didn't feel that it was too embarrassing to sit drinking and eating with Ding Yi, who he was not familiar with at all.

After Ding Yi said "Happy New Year's Eve", he naturally said "Happy New Year's Eve".

Liquor is strong, even if it is a small drink, the alcohol will gradually start to rise.

Zhou Lin is not too introverted, sometimes he just doesn't want to talk too much, Ding Yi doesn't talk too much, but what he says doesn't seem superficial.

Gradually, the two of them talked more and more.

Zhou Lin: "You spend the New Year here alone, don't you go home? Your parents don't rush you?"

Ding Yi: "They run a small business, and I heard they are very busy."

Zhou Lin differentiated the word "hearing and hearing". It seems that hearing and hearing cannot be used between parents and children, right?

Zhou Lin used the strength of alcohol to speak less forcefully.

"How busy you are, you are such a big person, they are busy, don't you just go and help them?"

Ding Yi took a sip of his wine, with a trace of helplessness on the corner of his mouth, "I probably don't need my help, I haven't seen them for a long time, since my grandparents passed away, no, I didn't meet them a few times before they passed away. "

Zhou Lin put it bluntly: "You are a left-behind child."

Ding Yi nodded: "Yes, it is said that they go out to work for me, for this family."

It's just that he has never seen where this family is since he was a child.

Sitting and eating together, being able to sleep in the same room, this is the feeling of a family.

This kind of family members who I don’t see a few times a year, and who don’t meet each other during Chinese New Year, don’t know what kind of family they are.

Zhou Lin might have drunk too much, he squeezed to the side, and stayed next to Ding Yi all the time.

"If you think about it, sometimes it's good if you can't see it. At least there is no conflict. If you see it, you might be arguing every day, or you have nothing to say to each other. Have you ever seen a single-parent family? There is something worse than a single-parent family. Remarriage Family, having a family and a father, it is better to have no family and no father, which saves that extravagant hope. Anyway, I am prepared for no one to love and no one to love. Parents have a shallow relationship, which is better than watching him love others. Easy to take."

The air conditioner was on in the room, and the sweater on his body was warm and soft.

Ding Yi's finger touched Zhou Lin's arm, and he couldn't help but move his finger, letting the soft touch slide over his fingertips.

This person looks cold, but his body is extraordinarily warm.

Just like in his car just now, it was warm and had a clean aroma.

Ding Yi said: "Then I'm not the worst?"

Zhou Lin nodded: "Of course, at least you have someone to drink with you and watch the Spring Festival Gala on New Year's Eve."

The two wine glasses collided lightly again, making a crisp sound.

Hearing this voice, Ding Yi suddenly felt happy for no reason, "Thank you."

Zhou Lin waved his hand, shook his head, and said, "This is the third time you've thanked me tonight, have you always been this polite to people?"

Ding Yi didn't know if he was a polite person, he just thanked him habitually.

Before he could say anything, Zhou Lin had already grabbed the wine bottle and poured wine for the two of them. There was not much left in a bottle of white wine, but when he poured it, it was almost bottomed out, so he simply split it in half , poured it all into the cup.

"I respect you, thank you for entertaining me for the New Year's Eve dinner tonight."

Zhou Lin clinked glasses with him, raised his head and took a big gulp.

Just as Ding Yi was about to stop him, the man had already drunk, and he was still yelling at him: "Drink quickly, I've finished drinking!"

It seems that the alcohol is on the top.

Ding Yi had no choice but to raise his head and take a big sip.

The author has something to say:

New Year's Eve dinner continued, hhhhh...
