It snowed for two or three days, and by Sunday the sky finally started to clear up. However, the temperature was even lower than when it was snowing, and with the world covered in ice and snow, everyone was staying home as much as possible.

Xia Wenxi is used to staying at home and doesn't feel cooped up at home. On the other hand, Xia Wensheng stands at the window every day, worried about how he will go to work on Monday if the snow doesn't stop.

He is undoubtedly the model worker of the Xia family this year.

"Sister Minghuan, I really don't want you to leave."

When Minghuan was about to leave, Xia Wenxi held her hand and said goodbye reluctantly. These past few days, the two of them had been chatting about gossip, watching variety shows, skincare, and fashion, and they had so much to talk about.

Xia Wenxi sighed countless times, wishing Xia Wensheng were her older sister.

Of course, she accidentally blurted out her thoughts yesterday, which made Xia Wensheng glare at her all day. Now he's still giving her the cold shoulder.

"I have to go to work tomorrow, otherwise I would really like to spend a couple more days with you, Wenxi, and come to your house to play whenever I have time."

No sooner had Minghuan finished speaking than Xia Wensheng stepped in to "break up the couple."

"Can't you two meet anytime you want? If you keep chatting, I'm really going to be late for my meeting."

Xia raised her left hand and spun her watch in front of the two women, indicating that it was getting late.

Xia Wenxi pouted, "You can just go to work, or the family driver can take Minghuan home. I can go with you, but you just don't want to."

"I'd be happy to give it to you!"

"snort!"

On the way home, Xia Wensheng was still saying, "I thought that since you came to my house this time, we could take advantage of the time to relax and do nothing for a few days, but you were busy talking to Xia Wenxi."

Xia Wensheng angrily accused Ming Huan of neglecting him these past two days.

"How often do I see Wenxi, and how often do I see you? What's there to be angry about?"

Xia was speechless upon hearing this. Oh well, he could still have some alone time with Huanhuan tonight, so he wasn't angry.

That afternoon, light snowflakes began to fall again. Although they weren't heavy, due to the heavy snowfall of the previous two days, many areas in the city still had snow that hadn't been cleared. Moreover, the temperature was very low that day, and with the snow, the roads were likely to be very slippery.

So for safety reasons, Xia Wensheng let everyone leave work early, and he did the same, preparing to go off to enjoy some alone time with his partner.

As he left his office, Xia Wensheng passed by the next office and saw Feng Yue still there. As a caring boss, he went up and knocked on the door.

"You're off work, what are you still doing here?"

“Chairman!” Feng Yue, who had been staring blankly at his phone, immediately stood up when he saw Xia Wensheng. Remembering the question from earlier, he replied, “My wife has something to do. I’ll pick her up later. It’s on my way from the company, so I’ll wait a bit longer.”

When Xia heard him say that, he remembered that he had given a large sum of money as a wedding gift when the two got married on May Day.

So I casually asked, "I remember your wife is in the same industry as you? She must be very busy with work."

Upon hearing this, Feng Yue gave a wry smile, "Yes, she's much busier than me."

"You two have had it tough, but it's good that you're in the same industry, share a common language, and can make progress together."

Xia Wensheng asked casually and didn't say much.

After Xia Wensheng left, Feng Yue sat down again. They did have something in common. Any one of the annoying things his wife encountered at work could be enough for someone to reminisce about for two months.

Of course, if his wife hadn't ended up cleaning up the mess, he could have lingered on the memory for even longer.

When Xia Wensheng drove out of the company today, it wasn't dark yet, which was such a happy thing!

He hummed a song as he headed towards Minghuan's house. There was still one intersection away from Minghuan's house, and while waiting for the red light, Xia Wensheng received a call from Minghuan.

"Huanhuan, I'll be there soon. Do you want some roasted chestnuts downstairs? Should I buy some and bring them up?"

Minghuan didn't expect him to get off work so early today, and he was almost there...

"I'm sorry, Wensheng, but you shouldn't come today."

"What's wrong?"

Although it was a question, Xia Wensheng still chose to turn around when the green light came on.

“I just sent you a WeChat message but you didn’t reply. Yinyin is at my house. She’s been staying with me for the past few days, so please don’t come over for the next few days.”

splat—

Xia Wensheng felt as if she had shattered a little, but she still said, "Okay, it's okay. You two have a good chat. Call me if you need any help."

After hanging up the phone, Xia Wensheng wondered whether to go back to his apartment or go home. After thinking about it, he decided to go home. There was no food at his apartment, and he was becoming increasingly reluctant to go back.

"Hey! How did your romantic getaway extend to your home?"

Xia Wensheng didn't want to pay attention to her pure schadenfreude. Seeing his younger sister wearing a fluffy pajama, her cheeks flushed, and cakes and fruits on the table, he was simply filled with jealousy!

"If you pass the exam and start studying in September, there are still several months left. What are you planning to do? Just stay at home and do nothing?"

Xia Wenxi scratched her head. "What else can we do?"

"Have some ambition! Life is about striving!"

Xia Wenxi chuckled twice and transferred the cake she hadn't eaten yet to Xia Wensheng, saying, "You've worked hard, have a piece of cake."

Xia Wensheng's work is indeed hard, but she gets bonuses for doing nothing, which sometimes makes her feel a little embarrassed, but...

She doesn't have the ability to share Xia Wensheng's burden. The company is fine as long as she's free. If she goes to work... the company's market value will probably start to shrink in no time.

Xia Wenxi also said these words to Xia Wensheng, "Think about it, I need Assistant Feng's help to write my undergraduate thesis. My biggest contribution to the company is not going to work."

"you……"

"never mind."

Xia Wensheng didn't even use a fork; he picked up the cake and took a bite of half of it, making Xia Wenxi grimace in disbelief.

Why didn't you go to Minghuan's house today?

"Huanhuan has guests at home, so it's not convenient for me to go." After saying that, she took another bite, finishing the cake in two bites.

Xia Wenxi was so frightened that she quickly poured him some water, afraid that he would choke on it.

"Yinyin, drink some water first, what happened?"

Seeing her crying and hiccuping, Minghuan poured her a glass of water and sat down next to Su Yinyin, patting her back and gently comforting her.

This afternoon, while Minghuan was cleaning at home, she received a phone call from Su Yinyin. At first, Su Yinyin didn't say anything on the phone, she just kept crying.

Minghuan coaxed and persuaded her for a long time before she found out where the person was. She then sent her her home address so that she could take a taxi over.

After he came over, he hugged her and cried as soon as he entered the door.

Although Su Yinyin didn't say anything, Minghuan still suspected it was related to her boyfriend. She had never seen Yinyin so heartbroken before.
