Braving the cold wind, carrying a small backpack on his back, his hands stuffed in his pockets, not revealing a single inch of his body, his entire body wrapped up tightly. But it didn't seem strange, because everyone on the street was like that.
Wearing a coat, a skirt, and showing your ankles in the middle of winter is absolutely impossible here.
What trends, what fashions, bullshit, people will just think you are a big fool.
Dressed like that in this kind of weather is simply seeking death, or a painful death, worse than death.
If you want to change the mind of a person who pursues fashion and beauty, it is very simple. Just let him/her experience the midwinter with temperatures of minus ten or twenty degrees Celsius.
She promised that from now on, she would wrap herself up like a dumpling and never dare to do it again.
Don’t ask me why I have such feelings. If you ask, it’s just because I was too young and full of youthful vigor back then.
The cold air exhaled seemed to condense into ice in the air, and the long eyelashes were covered with snowflakes. After each snowfall, it seemed as if I could feel the melted snowflakes slowly flowing down my cheeks.
Jianshu finally reached the department store and saw the figure waiting in front of the bus stop from a distance.
She quickened her pace and walked over quickly.
"Lily, didn't we agree on nine o'clock? It's so cold when you come so early!" Wrapped in the scarf, Jianshu's voice was a little muffled.
Fortunately, the two of them were close enough and there was no one else around, so they could hear clearly.
Li Li, who was also wrapped up so tightly that only her eyes were visible, smiled. Even though her smile was invisible, it was easy to hear it in her muffled voice. "Don't worry, I just got here too. It's not even two minutes already and you're here."
"Really?" Jian Shu was a little suspicious, thinking that she was just trying to comfort her.
Li Li nodded. "Really? If you don't believe me, look at the footprints over there. I left them when I first got here. They're still very clear."
She pointed to the footprints not far away as evidence that she was not lying.
Jianshu had basically believed it by now, but he still went over to take a look. After confirming that the footprints were clearly visible and that they were indeed recently stepped on, he felt relieved.
"That's pretty good." She nodded with satisfaction.
"I didn't lie to you, did I? Humph! You still don't believe me." Li Li walked over and snorted, speaking proudly.
Is she the type to lie?
Looking at the slowly approaching bus, Jian Shu rolled his eyes at her. "How dare you say that I don't trust you? Isn't it because you have too many dark pasts? How can anyone trust you?"
It's not like Li Li hasn't done this kind of thing before.
They agreed to arrive at 9 o'clock, and they arrived at 8:30. If it were a normal day, it would be fine, at most they would have to wait a little longer, but it was winter, and by the time she and Pan Ning arrived, they were frozen silly.
After being scolded twice by her and Pan Ning, he gradually got better.
However, Jianshu also knows that this is a hobby that has been developed since childhood. He has to plan ahead for where to go and what to do. He would rather wait a little longer than make others wait.
It has gradually gotten better in the past few years, but some things seem to be engraved in my bones and will reappear from time to time.
So yesterday Jianshu repeatedly emphasized that she must be "on time" and not arrive early.
So far, it seems that the execution is pretty good.
"Hehe——" Li Li just scratched her head and smiled foolishly without answering.
There are some things that we have really become accustomed to, and it is really not easy to change them.
Jianshu didn't say anything more to her. Some harmless things were fine, but some habits were difficult to change. If she couldn't do it herself, then they would have to do it too.
Past life has formed a habit, a muscle memory, so they can also let her form another habit, another muscle memory, covering the previous one.
"The car is here, get in first, it's warmer up there."
The bus slowly slowed down and finally stopped two meters in front of the two people.
In the middle of winter, many people choose to travel by bus. It’s only the second stop, and most of the seats are already occupied.
Jianshu found two empty seats side by side at the back of the carriage and walked over.
He took off the backpack from his back and sat down by the window, placing the backpack between his feet.
Li Li also sat next to Jianshu in the same posture.
"Huh - I feel much warmer." Li Li loosened the scarf around her face slightly and took a breath of fresh air.
Although Jianshu feels that this is not fresh air.
But this did not prevent her from pulling off the scarf on her face, taking out the handkerchief from her pocket, and slowly wiping the small water droplets on her face.
This is not sweat caused by the heat, but the sweat left after the melted snowflakes. It is icy and cold, and it is very uncomfortable to have on the face.
"You should also wipe it with a handkerchief, otherwise it will flow into your neck and clothes and you will catch a cold easily." Looking at the water stains on Li Li's face, Jianshu reminded her.
Li Li turned her head to look at Jian Shu's actions, then reached out to touch her face, and sure enough, she felt a hand full of snow water. "Oh, so much water."
Then, instead of wiping it with a handkerchief as Jianshu reminded, she simply grabbed the scarf around her neck and wiped her face violently.
Jianshu saw her action: "..."
Putting aside the issue of rudeness and image, if you wipe your face with a scarf, doesn't that mean the scarf is wet? And you're not going to wrap your face with the scarf anymore, are you?
Won’t it be cold by then?
Was she using the handkerchief out of unnecessary effort, or out of affectation?
Jianshu sighed speechlessly and gave up speaking.
It's already been wiped, what else can I say? Just for hindsight?
Anyway, she will know what stupid thing she has done later, so she'd better not expose it, otherwise she is afraid of losing face.
So, Jianshu turned his head naturally to look at the scenery outside the window, pretending not to notice Li Li's actions.
After Li Li wiped all the water off her face and neck, she turned around and saw Jian Shu staring out the window.
She also looked over.
Isn't it just trees, grass, and a few houses? What's so good about it?
Li Li has seen the same scenery countless times and is already tired of it. She really doesn't understand why Jianshu is so fascinated by it.
But even if she didn't understand, she didn't intend to disturb her. She lowered her head quietly and went to have fun on her own, leaving a quiet environment for Jianshu.
The bus passed one stop after another, and people got on and off, back and forth. The number of people never decreased, but increased.
The carriage became increasingly crowded and noisy.
The sounds of people talking and the calls of poultry such as chickens, ducks, and geese are strung together to play a noisy piece of music.
Jianshu frowned slightly and no longer had the heart to appreciate the scenery. He was just hoping to arrive at the station soon.
