In the bitterly cold winter, the snow is falling heavily.
Cars slowed down on the streets, shop entrances were decorated in a warm and romantic atmosphere, and tree branches were hung with white snow and colorful lights of various shapes.
Occasionally, fireworks shot up into the sky, exploding to the amazement of the crowd. The sounds of children playing added a new dimension to the night.
The area around Xinghai Square was crowded with people and the parking lot was already empty.
The distinctive large clock in the square rotated leisurely, and the time was frozen at half past eleven.
Yun Xiang was strolling around with a roasted sweet potato in hand, jostling with the crowd. Behind him, he could hear the banter of Song Jin and Luo Mi.
The closer you get to the center of the square, the more people there are.
Fireworks were to be set off at twelve o'clock, and everyone crowded into the front row.
"Is it sweet?" Cheng Che's voice suddenly came to my ears.
Yun Xiang looked up and subconsciously handed over the roasted sweet potato, "Would you like to try it?"
Cheng Che lowered his eyes and looked at Yun Xiang, who had just taken a small bite of the roasted sweet potato, and his throat moved.
Can he eat?
"I feel fine, but it might be a little bit for you-" The sweet word was not even out of his mouth.
Cheng Che bent down slightly and took a bite of the roasted sweet potato in her hand.
Yun Xiang paused, Cheng Che raised his head and licked his lips.
"Sweet," he said.
Yun Xiangren is stupid.
Cheng Che doesn't like sweet food, so she handed it to him with the mentality that Cheng Che wouldn't eat it.
But...something seems to be going a little wrong.
"You, I..." Yun Xiang was at a loss as to what to do.
I stuttered for a moment, not knowing what to say.
"What do you mean by me? I'm eating your roasted sweet potato. You won't feel bad, will you?" He tapped Yun Xiang's head.
Yun Xiang quickly shook his head.
That's not the case. She's not that stingy.
"What does it feel like?" Yun Xiang asked him curiously.
Cheng Che raised his eyebrows. What was she referring to?
"Sweet." He used the same word again.
Yun wanted to curl her lips. Of course she knew that roasted sweet potatoes were sweet.
She wanted to ask what it felt like for someone who didn’t like sweets to eat something sweet.
Never mind, I’m too lazy to ask.
Cheng Che couldn't help but curl his lips as he saw her walk forward. He gently wiped his lips with his fingertips, and the look in his eyes gradually softened. It was as if he couldn't hide his love.
No matter how many times she asked, there was only one answer: sweet.
So sweet.
Not baked sweet potatoes.
It’s Yunxiang who is so sweet.
Yun Xiang was eating the roasted sweet potatoes by himself, not minding at all that Cheng Che had just eaten them.
There were many people setting off small fireworks in the square. She would stop from time to time to watch the fireworks, and then say to Cheng Che, "Cheng Che, this is so beautiful."
Cheng Che just smiled and nodded, "Yes, it looks good."
"Cheng Che, this year's New Year's Eve is so lively."
Balloons were floating all over the sky, and the atmosphere was very lively because of the large number of people.
Cheng Che quietly followed Yun Xiang. The boy was tall and thin, wearing a gray hoodie and a black padded jacket. He put his hands in his pockets and occasionally helped her carry things.
Yun Xiang and Cheng Che have completely different personalities.
She is slow and takes a long time to look at things before buying them, but she is very lively.
Cheng Che is decisive in doing things, but he is also very casual and unconventional.
Yunxiang found a place to stop, thinking that this would be a good place to watch the fireworks.
She lowered her head to look at her phone, and her friends in the circle of friends were all preparing to welcome the New Year.
Some people post on their Moments to lament the year, while others look forward to the new year.
But whether it is celebrating this year or welcoming the new year, everyone has only one wish, which is to hope that the coming year will be better.
“It’s the countdown!”
The circular clock has begun the final thirty-second countdown.
The surroundings were quiet and everyone took out their phones to record this exciting scene.
Yun Xiang rubbed his palms and was ready to welcome the New Year.
She wanted to look up and secretly glance at Cheng Che, but found that Cheng Che was looking at her.
Cheng Che tilted his head, catching Yun Xiang's peek. He put his hands in his pockets, his eyebrows slightly raised.
In just that moment, their eyes met and the New Year's bell rang.
Brilliant fireworks were reflected in the sky, illuminating the faces of the two people.
Cheng Che opened his thin lips and said softly, "Happy New Year, idiot."
Amidst the bustling crowd, the sounds of different "Happy New Year" echoed through my ears, and the deafening blast of fireworks, only his "Happy New Year" was the most moving.
Yun wanted to know if she was caught peeking, so she simply looked up at him.
There was a lot of noise all around, but she only looked at him.
Cheng Che approached her and asked with a smile, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
I didn't even say Happy New Year to him.
It's really not cute.
Yun Xiang raised the corners of his mouth, his tone gentle and bright, "I asked my heart, and it said, I can't help myself."
——I asked my heart, and it said, I can’t help it.
Cheng Che's breathing stopped.
The wind blew past his ears, and the tips of his ears slowly turned red. He didn't know if it was because of the cold winter, or because of Yun Xiang's words.
"This sentence was stolen from Douyin, but it feels true. Cheng Che, Happy New Year." Yun Xiang smiled, and her smile became even sweeter.
Cheng Che looked at her straight, and he could clearly feel that his heart was hit hard.
"What? Are you stupid?" Yun Xiang pushed his arm.
Cheng Che lowered his eyes, his throat throbbing.
He withdrew his thoughts and looked up again. His voice was even gentler. "Barely awake."
Yun Xiang laughed, "No future."
Cheng Che didn't deny it, "I'm a loser."
If possible, he also wanted to ask: How can one be more successful in front of the person he likes?
The climax of the fireworks came again.
The two looked up together, the fireworks were colorful and the city was bustling.
