After dinner, the roommates went home first. Yun Xiang and Cheng Che went to the nearby small shops to hang out.
Yun Xiang picked up a doll and waved it towards Cheng Che, "Cheng Che, look at this doll, does it look like you?"
Cheng Che folded his arms across his chest, leaning casually against the wall next to the mirror. He answered Yun Xiang's question with a doting look, "How are they similar?"
Yun Xiang looked at Cheng Che, a trace of heartache flashing in her eyes. She felt that Cheng Che was very tired, and no longer had the high spirits and youthful spirit he had in high school.
"It's like you're jealous." Yun Xiang chuckled, put the peach back and continued walking forward.
Cheng Che stood up straight. When he passed by Pi Tao, he couldn't help but pick up the peach and put it on his face. He tried to imitate Pi Tao's expression in the mirror. Then he shook his head and said, "No."
When Yun Xiang turned around to look at him, he was imitating himself in front of the mirror with a peach in his hand.
Yun wanted to laugh out loud. She turned back, put the peach back, and pulled his sleeve, laughing at him: "Comrade Xiao Cheng, why are you so stupid?"
Cheng Che didn't say anything, but shrugged and continued to follow Yun Xiang forward.
"I want to buy a small mirror. I accidentally broke it before." Yun Xiang was looking for a small mirror.
But he didn't notice that the person behind him was secretly recording the scene with his mobile phone.
Cheng Che zoomed in on the image and whispered to himself, "The 103rd day of holding a grudge. Yun Xiang just said I looked like a peach."
"Cheng Che, walk faster." Yun Xiang waved at him.
"Coming." Cheng Che turned off his phone and followed.
Yunxiang bought a cup of hot cocoa and stood in front of the store's floor-to-ceiling window looking out.
In just a few hours, the city was blanketed in a blanket of silver. Passing cars slowed to a crawl, their lights dancing in the snowflakes. Outside a store, a still-standing Christmas tree was engulfed in snow, its tiny lights flickering like tiny eyes.
Yun wanted to put down the cup in his hand, but he couldn't help but hold his face with his hands, tilted his head and said, "Kyoto is so beautiful when it snows."
Cheng Che hummed calmly.
Yun Xiang turned around and found that he was looking at her.
Yun Xiang frowned, "Why are you looking at me when you can't look at the beautiful night?"
Cheng Che sighed and patted Yun Xiang's head. "The night is not as beautiful as you."
Actually, he was quite tired recently. It was a rare day off, and he wanted to lie down on the bed and sleep all day and all night. But when Xiang Xiang said he wanted to see him, he came immediately.
In the silence, Yun Xiang looked at him and asked gently, "Is the training very hard?"
"Not bad." He took a sip of water and spoke calmly.
Yun Xiang glanced at him and found that Cheng Che's eyes were evasive.
Yun Xiang didn't ask any more questions, but followed his gaze and looked out the window.
She had also secretly checked the intensity of the firefighting program, and it was relatively intense. There was physical training in the mornings, formation drills during the day, and theoretical instruction in the evenings. It was intense, involved, and held strict standards.
Yun Xiang finished the last sip of the hot drink and threw the cup into the trash can.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the subway station."
It's snowing today, so it's not suitable to take a taxi. The subway is safer.
"I'll take you back to school, and then I'll go to the subway station by myself." He stood up, picked up the coat beside him, and helped Yun Xiang put on the clothes.
Yun Xiang put on his clothes and hugged Cheng Che's arm, "Cheng Che, let me take you there once."
She wanted to walk a little further with him.
She didn't want Cheng Che to watch her leave every time, and then she had to take the bus alone.
"Do you have to send me off?" He looked into Yun Xiang's eyes and asked caringly.
Yun Xiang nodded, "Definitely."
She is very stubborn. If she makes a request, she will insist on fulfilling it.
Cheng Che sighed, "There's nothing I can do to you."
Hearing this, Yun wondered if he was letting go.
She was determined to take advantage of the situation and said with a smile, "How could that be? You wanted me to give it to you, right?"
Cheng Che clicked his tongue.
What the hell are you thinking about?
He was so worried about her going back to school alone.
When she pushed open the shop door, snowflakes fell on Yunxiang's hair.
This was the first snow of the year, and everyone was very excited. Many people came out to play in the snow and take photos.
Yun Xiang and Cheng Che walked hand in hand in the snow, letting the heavy snow fall on their shoulders and their hair.
Under the streetlights, the snow turned yellow, and the snow underfoot made a crunching sound.
On the steps of the subway station, Cheng Che asked her not to see him off.
"I'll watch you go." Yun wanted to pull him downstairs.
Cheng Che grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
He took a piece of chocolate from his pocket, peeled it and handed it to her, "Here."
Yun wanted to open his mouth and eat the chocolate. "Okay~ Since Xiao Cheng doesn't let me send it, then I won't."
Cheng Che hummed.
Yun Xiang stood on tiptoe and suddenly reached out to hug him.
She called out gently, "Cheng Che."
Cheng Che lowered his eyes, hugged her with both hands, buried his face in her neck, and said in a muffled voice, "What's wrong, baby?"
Yun wanted to hug him tightly, and smoothed his head with one hand, "I know you are very tired. But I also know that you will overcome the difficulties and persevere."
"Cheng Che, you are just a little bit away from your dream. You need to keep working hard."
Cheng Che looked up at the snowflakes slowly drifting down in the distance. He couldn't help but smile, "Idiot."
"I'll do my best, don't worry about me."
He let go of Yun Xiang, pinched her nose, and kissed the corner of her mouth, "Let's go back."
Yun Xiang looked into his eyes, and she saw weariness in them. He stood in the snow, watching her leave, his figure erect, like a pine or cypress standing tall on a mountain covered in layers of snow and frost.
