Chapter 15

"Ahem—"

Xu Tingbai suddenly put down his fork, and was shocked and choked on his throat by the not-so-spicy soup, and he coughed hard.

Lin Qingle didn't expect that he would react so much, so he quickly pushed the water over, then pulled his wrist to hold the water cup: "Drink some water! Be careful!"

Because the boy stayed in a small house all year round, his skin was very white, so he choked and his white skin turned red.

Lin Qingle looked anxiously: "I'll pour you another cup!"

"Need not!"

Xu Tingbai took two sips of water and calmed down, but his face was still unnatural, "Why didn't you say it earlier!"

Lin Qingle was stunned for a moment: “Ah?

You said noodle, I didn't react for a while... It's okay, here, you can continue to eat this one.

Give me mine.”

When Lin Qingle pushed his box over, he also wanted to take his own from him, but he stopped him as soon as he met.

Lin Qingle: "What's wrong?"

Xu Tingbai: "...I have used it, don't move."

Lin Qingle glanced at the fork he had used, and actually didn't mind what he had eaten.

But at her age, she naturally knew the small distance between men and women, for example, two people should not use a fork.

Lin Qingle withdrew his hand: "Then I'll get a pair of chopsticks, okay?"

Xu Ting's throat was still hot because of choking. He suppressed the stimulation and nodded with a calm face.

After eating the bowl of noodles, Lin Qingle rushed home.

Although she could make excuses that she was too selfless in the library, she could not be too late.

The next week, the temperature dropped sharply and everyone wrapped in a heavy down jacket outside the school uniform.

Winter has come completely, and it even started snowing on Sunday.

"It snowed outside today and the ground was sliding. Don't go to the library and study at home."

Lin Yufen was resting on the day and was cleaning at home.

Lin Qingle stood by the desk and packed his schoolbag and said, "But they are still playing mahjong, the sound is too loud."

The distance between floors is very small, and the sound of playing mahjong and communicating on the opposite floor cannot be pulled.

Lin Yufen frowned and cursed the people opposite him for a few words, and had to say, "Then you walk carefully."

"Okay, I know."

When I went out with my schoolbag on my back, the snow that had been stuck for two hours fell down and then fell down lightly.

Lin Qingle likes snowy days very much. The white feeling makes her feel that the world is clean and her mood will improve as well.

Today, the way to the library was still the way to Xu Tingbai's house. She planned to put down her schoolbag at his house first, and then go to the vegetable market near him to buy some vegetables.

She said last weekend that she would cook at his house today and supplement him with some nutrition.

After arriving at Xu Tingbai's door, she took her hand out of her pocket and touched it into the box next to her. This time she felt the key as she wished.

Fortunately, Xu Tingbai did not secretly hide it after she discovered it.

After entering the room, Lin Qingle originally planned to put down her schoolbag and go out to buy it herself, but when she looked at Xu Tingbai's unclosed room door, she suddenly had some other thoughts.

Walking outside his door, Lin Qingle knocked lightly.

"Enter."

Lin Qingle pushed open the door and stuck his head in: "Xu Tingbai."

Xu Tingbai was originally squatting on the ground and some school textbooks. After hearing that she was coming, he stopped and stood up.

"I'm going out to buy groceries soon."

Lin Qingle paused and said, "It's snowing today."

Xu Tingbai frowned slightly, as if he didn't understand what the relationship between her two sentences was.

Lin Qingle smiled and said, "I mean, do you want to go with me?"

Xu Tingbai was slightly stunned and said, "Don't go."

Lin Qingle knew that Xu Tingbai never went to other places except for the road to school.

On weekdays, he either brought back the food near the road or asked Jiang Po to help him.

He does not go anywhere else, isolates himself from society, and lives alone and silently in his own small world.

Lin Qingle: "But it snowed today."

“…so what.”

"The snow is getting heavier and heavier. When I first came here, I was on the grass, trees, and roofs.

Not to mention the ground, the layer is so thick that it feels so comfortable to step on."

Lin Qingle walked over and pulled off his sleeve, "This is the first snow this year. Can you go and experience it with me?"

The girl's voice was full of temptation, and as she spoke, the world she described actually appeared in his mind.

"You pull me, I'll take you away."

Xu Tingbai was slightly stunned, and only heard her continue, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you."

——

The snow is still falling, and the snow is getting more and more on the ground, and the shoes are creaking and creaking.

Xu Tingbai didn't know why he came out. When the cold object fell on his face, he seemed to have come back to his senses.

But it's too late.

"You go carefully, the ground is a little slippery."

Xu Tingbai did not wear a blind stick, so Lin Qingle became more cautious, pinching his sleeve with one hand and holding an umbrella with the other.

But at her height, it was too difficult to hold an umbrella for Xu Tingbai.

She tried her best to raise her hand, but the posture was too sour and obviously couldn't last too long.

So before going far, Xu Tingbai discovered her trembling state.

"Give me."

He stretched out his hand.

"What?"

"Give me an umbrella."

Lin Qingle quickly straightened his hand a little further: "It's okay, I can take it!"

Xu Tingbai said in a deep voice: "Give it."

"……oh."

The umbrella was held firmly in his palm, unlike when she held it, which was tilted.

Lin Qingle secretly glanced at him, then looked at his hand holding the umbrella. His knuckles were slender and clean, and his bones were clear.

It looks very beautiful when holding the handle of the umbrella...

“Where is the vegetable market?”

Xu Tingbai asked suddenly.

Lin Qingle suddenly withdrew his gaze, but after taking it back, he remembered that he couldn't see it, so he was inexplicably panicked...

"Front, walk straight ahead, then turn right and left, and it will be around ten minutes."

After saying that, I found that Xu Tingbai was flirting with his face, obviously disliked that it was a long way from ten minutes.

"Actually, it's good to go out for a walk..." Lin Qingle said as he stretched out his hand outside the umbrella.

The snowflakes fluttered and fell in her palm.

Her eyes were covered with smiles and her voice became more cheerful: "Xu Tingbai, the snowflakes are very cold, please touch them."

Xu Tingbai walked forward with an umbrella, feeling his sleeves being pulled by someone beside him, and he said, "Have you seen snow before? What's there to be excited about?"

"Well... because I was in a southern city a few years ago, it didn't snow much in that place in winter, and it was very small even if it fell."

Lin Qingle said, "It's been a long time since I saw such heavy snow."

"oh……"

"I'm a little excited to meet Xue after a long separation."

Lin Qingle stepped on the snow and stepped down thickly, feeling very satisfied.
