In the dark night, fireworks exploded in bursts.

At this moment, Huo Feng was squatting at the door of Yu Sangzhi's house like a homeless child. In the biting cold wind, he hugged himself tightly, holding the hot water bottle in his hand, stamping his feet and breathing out the cold air...

Although it is Chinese New Year today, the alley near Yu Sangzhi's house is not busy at all.

Not only was Lin Qianqian's house empty, but every other house in the alley had also closed its doors early...

On New Year’s Eve, even the convenience store was closed.

Huo Feng, who had nowhere to hide from the cold, could only sit at her doorstep and wait...

"It's so cold...why haven't you come back yet..."

Huo Feng glanced at his phone and it was almost ten o'clock.

If he hasn't come back by ten o'clock, does that mean he won't come back?

"We agreed to celebrate the New Year together... Is this woman going to stand me up..."

Huo Feng hugged his legs sadly, looking around, this way and that, but he didn't see any human figure.

He opened his mouth wide and exhaled deeply, watching his breath form white smoke in the air and then slowly dissipate.

"ha…"

Huo Feng let out a sigh.

"ha…"

Huo Feng let out another breath.

"ha…"

Then, Huo Feng found that he was so bored that he could only play this.

Because his hands had been frozen into stiff chicken claws, he had no strength to play games on his phone and just wanted to hold a hot water bottle.

"When will you come back? When will you come back..."

Huo Feng hugged his legs and trembled, staring at his phone from time to time, and then looking at the dark alley from time to time.

"Sang Zhi, cruel Sang Zhi... Could it be that you knew I was going to come looking for you, so you ran away on purpose?"

"Sang Zhi...when will you be back?"

Huo Feng was trapped in a long wait.

He was such a tall man, but at this moment, he was sitting on the steps in front of Yu Sangzhi's house, but his back looked as depressed as a child.

"yawn!"

Suddenly, Huo Feng sneezed.

He quickly rubbed his nose, took a deep breath, hugged himself, and stamped his feet.

The fireworks in the sky were still setting off and shining brightly.

Seeing the endless bursts of fireworks, Huo Feng remembered that there were still fireworks on his electric scooter.

I originally planned to take the mother and daughter to Jinhe Park to set off fireworks to cheer them up.

well…

God doesn't always follow man's wishes, and doesn't even give him this opportunity.

"yawn…"

Huo Feng sneezed again and shook his head to wake himself up.

I looked at the time again, it was already half past ten...

At 10:30, the mother and daughter still had not returned.

He hasn't come back yet at this point, so there's a high possibility that he won't come back today.

Huo Feng vaguely guessed this, and his physiological reaction told him: Let's go, if he waits any longer, he will catch a cold.

But the thoughts in his head were telling him: Wait a little longer! He'd already waited this long, why not wait until after midnight? If he didn't come after midnight and left, it would be a way of explaining to himself.

In the end, in the battle between body and mind, Huo Feng believed in the mind!

So he continued to wait.

In the biting cold wind, in the bustling yet lonely winter night, he waited silently, waited silently...

I waited and it turned out to be past 11 o'clock.

There were less than ten minutes left until midnight, and Huo Feng was already waiting at the door of Yu Sangzhi's house, completely unconscious.

Although he was used to waiting for her and waiting at her doorstep for a long time, it was really cold that day.

It was so cold that he felt like he was going crazy!

Huo Feng took out his phone with stiff fingers and tapped the screen. The time on the phone screen was 11:50...

"What a cruel woman..."

The corners of his mouth twitched, forming a very sad arc.

By this time, Huo Feng really wanted to cry.

Then, in the last ten minutes of New Year's Eve, Huo Feng stared at his phone, watching the countdown...

A person silently counted the time as it passed.

At 23:59, Huo Feng could no longer wait.

He put his cell phone in his pocket, stood up, walked towards his electric scooter, and prepared to drive home.

At this time, Huo Feng was already a little angry.

At this last minute, he chose not to wait for the sake of his dignity.

On the last day of the year, at the last minute, Huo Feng came out of the alley where her home was.

He drove his electric scooter and turned a corner at the entrance of the alley. Even the cold wind could not blow away the anger in his head.

However, just as his electric scooter turned a corner, Huo Feng suddenly saw a man in a military coat about to walk into the alley.

The man was holding a cigarette in his hand, busy puffing away...

Somehow, Huo Feng suddenly remembered the man squatting at the entrance of the alley described by the fat lady in the grocery store a long time ago!

At that moment, Huo Feng was distracted and didn't pay attention to the road ahead.

Suddenly, his electric scooter hit a pillar on the side of the road!

There was a loud "bang"!

Huo Feng flew out directly from the electric donkey...

The strong sound attracted the man's attention...

When the man turned around, he saw a small electric scooter fallen beside a pillar, with its tires still turning.

Then, the man noticed the young man lying on the ground five meters away.

"Hello…"

The man immediately threw away his cigarette butt and ran away...

It was exactly midnight on New Year's Eve.

The phone in Huo Feng's pocket rang...

There was an unfamiliar number on the phone screen, but Huo Feng, lying on the ground, no longer had the strength to answer the call.
