Chapter 89 Snowflakes can melt, but glaciers cannot

Huo Wenyi held Jiang Qia's fingers with his big hand.

Her fingers were so soft, as if they had no bones. If she rubbed them hard between her palms, they would probably dissolve.

The school was deserted. It was winter, and there was no other decoration except some evergreen trees. Snow fell on the treetops, and everything near and far was dyed a vast expanse of cold white.

Many late nights, Huo Wenyi walked out of the library alone. The school's largest library faced a lake, and layers of stairs led directly to the second floor.

In the long years of the past, he always came alone in the dim morning light and walked alone in the cold night wind.

The cold, thin and silent boy grew up slowly, his stature became taller and his shoulders became broader, and he gradually turned into the calm, mature, handsome and gentle man in front of us.

Jiang Qia sat on the steps with him, looking at the nearby lake which had already formed a thin layer of ice.

Everything was quiet, and I could almost hear the sound of snow falling.

Jiang Qia raised her hand to catch the snow, but the snowflakes melted instantly as they landed on her palm.

Snowflakes can melt, but glaciers are hard to melt.

She was a little curious, what kind of person could enter Huo Wenyi's cold heart?

Jiang Qia's physical condition cannot withstand cold air. She feels like coughing when the cold wind blows. She just recovered from a cold some time ago, and today she was dancing on the stage in a thin dress, and now she started coughing again.

Huo Wenyi pulled her up and said, "Go home."

Jiang Qia fell asleep as soon as he got in the car.

She had exerted a lot of energy today. It was already early morning and dawn would come in a few hours.

When she woke up, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.

Jiang Qia was scrolling through his phone, replying to wave after wave of New Year's greetings.

There was a vast expanse of silver white outside the window. It had indeed snowed heavily last night.

We have to go to the Huo family tonight. Jiang Qia will live in the Huo family for the next few days, acting as a little mascot to welcome wave after wave of relatives.

...As for why I hate the Chinese New Year, it’s not that I hate the Chinese New Year, but that I hate talking to my relatives.

Yu Lili sent more than a dozen messages last night, but Jiang Qia didn't read any of them. He only clicked on them now.

"Chai Yuanliang sent me a New Year's red envelope with the numbers 103104 and told me not to overthink it. What do you think he meant by that? Is 103104 some internet meme? I think I lived in dormitory number 104 in college."

Jiang Qia is really impressed by the second male lead.

Why the gentle second male lead can never catch up with the female lead? It’s because he is too thin-skinned.

Normally, the male lead would have already pushed the female lead against the wall and forcefully kissed her, while the second male lead would still be considering whether sending her a New Year's red envelope was overstepping the boundaries.

Jiang Qia: "He just wants you to think too much! Remove the two zeros and read it again!"

After a while, Yulili came to find Jiang Qia again.

Yu Lili: "I asked him if the red envelope he sent meant lifelong friendship, and he said yes, saying we would be best friends forever."

Jiang Qia: "...Don't worry about him. He's seen the end of his life and will be a single dog until his death."

Yu Lili fell strangely silent.

Jiang Qia started browsing Weibo with his second account again, and actively liked the content praising him.

After tossing and turning in bed for half an hour, Jiang Qia finally felt hungry. After taking a shower, he went to the refrigerator to look for something to eat.

Huo Wenyi brought her back to his place yesterday. Only some of the servants went home for the New Year, while the others stayed behind for the high holiday bonuses.

When the aunt saw Jiang Cha coming out, she went to cook a bowl of hot dumplings for Jiang Cha.

Jiang Qia ate slowly and asked about Huo Wenyi: "Where did Mr. Huo go? Did he go to the Huo family first?"

"No, Mr. Huo is still in the study. He might be doing some work in there at noon, so he didn't let us disturb him."

Jiang Qia said "Oh".

She suddenly remembered the orchids in Huo Wenyi's study.

Jiang Qia asked, "Is the orchid in Mr. Huo's study dead?"

Auntie was stunned for a moment, then continued, "I'm not sure. Mr. Huo doesn't allow us to enter his study."

Places like the study may contain some important documents or information of Huo Wenyi. Ordinary people are indeed not allowed to enter. Only the butler can go in to take things.

When Huo Wenyi was in the study, Jiang Qia went there many times, and after a long time he forgot that this was a forbidden place.

Not long after, Jiang Qia saw the housekeeper going to bring coffee to Huo Wenyi. She took it from the housekeeper and knocked on Huo Wenyi's door.

After entering, Jiang Qia placed the coffee on Huo Wenyi's desk and took a special look at the orchid on the bookshelf.

Maybe because the soil was changed and the orchid was pruned again, it sprouted branches again and looked very energetic.

Huo Wenyi said: "Let's go back to the Huo family later."

Jiang Qia nodded: "Okay."

Not long after, the two went back together.

The two were not at the Huo family on New Year's Eve, and both Mrs. Huo and Lu Huilan were quite dissatisfied with this.

Especially Lu Huilan.

Huo Wenyi can now be independent of the Huo family. Even if he leaves the Huo Group, Huo Wenyi's status will remain the same.

Jiang Qia, however, is a little cabbage that anyone can bully.

Lu Huilan's stern and harsh eyes fell on Jiang Qia.

Fortunately, Jiang Qia was thick-skinned enough. He greeted everyone with a smile, grabbed a handful of pistachios and cracked the kernels on the sofa.

A moment later, Huo Xiulin also came over.

In just a few months, Huo Xiulin's temperament and expression were completely different from before.

Maybe some people really grow up in an instant. After experiencing some setbacks, they regain success. The ups and downs can make a person look much more mature.

The male protagonist, who originally had a bit of a dandy playboy temperament, actually became more serious about worldly affairs.

When he stood with Huo Wenyi, they looked more like brothers in the same family.

It was unknown what the two of them talked about, but Huo Xiulin suddenly looked at Jiang Qia with a smile.

Not long after, Huo Wenyi said something coldly, and Huo Xiulin's face suddenly turned dark.

While Huo Wenyi was out, Lu Huilan quickly criticized Jiang Qia: "You're the wife of the Huo family! How can you sing and dance on the stage? In the old days, only actors would sing and dance on the stage to entertain people!"

Jiang Qia ignored her words and didn't take them seriously at all.

Compared to the personal attacks from some vicious black fans online, Lu Huilan's words are like a child's tickle.

"This isn't the old times anymore. Everything is different now." Huo Xiulin said, "Mom, don't use past ideas to judge the present."

Lu Huilan values ​​her son more than anything else.

She didn't expect Huo Xiulin to say that.

Lu Huilan snorted coldly: "You are not allowed to find someone in the entertainment industry in the future. You have to find a rich lady, don't embarrass our Huo family."

Huo Xiulin shook his head: "I make my own decisions about my own affairs."

Jiang Qia ate a few more pistachios. She didn't want to see the mother and son quarreling in front of her, so she took a bottle of mineral water and went out.
