The first day of the first lunar month.

The howling cold wind stopped, and the white snow flying all over the sky stopped. The clear blue sky even glowed with a little warm glow like the sun, and it seemed that the snow was about to overtake the sky...

Today is the first day of the New Year, the day Liu Yanbo left a message saying he would come back.

Yin Hanruo walked out of the house again. Although she had not closed her eyes for more than a day and night, her face did not look very bad, and even looked a little rosy, because she had carefully cleaned herself up when it was almost dawn.

makeup.

she thinks--

When Liu Yanbo comes back, give him a warm enough smile instead of a worried and haggard face.

The snow on the ground is very thick, and there are lights and colorful decorations everywhere in the community, but few residents go out. There are only a few children playing in the snow, which adds the joy that it deserves to this peaceful and peaceful New Year.

Yin Hanruo walked all the way to the gate of the community before he stopped, and then looked towards the end of the road as far as he could see, just——

Still haven’t seen my beloved return.

It was already afternoon, and Yin Hanruo couldn't even remember how many times he had stood here waiting impatiently. He only remembered that every time before, he came with full expectations, and then went back with disappointment and hope.

Will the result be the same this time?

After standing outside the gate for about half an hour, Yin Hanruo let out a sigh of relief, feeling unspeakable resentment and helplessness. But just when she was about to withdraw her gaze and walk back again, a figure appeared in front of her.

Within sight——

This figure was walking out of a corner in the distance. Although the appearance could not be clearly seen, it was eye-catching enough. The outfit, which was wrapped in black from head to toe, was in stark contrast to the world now covered with snow...

…

After Yin Hanruo was stunned for a moment, her eyes stayed on this figure and never left it. She hadn't seen it clearly enough, and her brain hadn't reacted yet, but her footsteps were already walking towards her involuntarily, and she walked further and further.

The faster I go, the more walking turns into running.

That's Liu Yanbo!

Her vision was blurred by the tears that overflowed her eyes. The closer she got, the less clearly she could see. But Yin Hanruo was very sure that the figure walking towards her was Liu Yanbo, her husband, because this figure had never been seen before.

From yesterday to today, it has been firmly occupied in her mind and stayed in her heart, never forgotten for a moment.

Liu Yanbo is finally back!

His steps were not fast, but he was also very determined. It seemed that he was using all his strength with every step he took. But the more he did this, the more embarrassed he looked now.

In this New Year, when snow heralds a good year, Liu Yanbo, who has returned, is more like a scarred lone wolf, so decadent that it makes people feel dazzling, and so lonely that he seems to be out of tune with the whole world.

The two finally met on the road. Liu Yanbo stopped, raised his head and tried his best to squeeze out a gentle smile. In order to make his voice not sound so exhausted, he began to say something out of thin air: "I said eldest sister.

, it’s so cold outside, why don’t you wear more clothes when you go out.”

Yin Hanruo was unmoved, because the outermost fur of the clothes she wore was much warmer than all the clothes on Liu Yanbo. She just looked at him blankly, letting the tears that had already filled her eyes burst freely.

Go out, no longer blur your vision.

Liu Yanbo had obviously deliberately cleaned up his appearance before coming back, and his body could be said to be spotless. However, no matter how clean he was, his bitten lips and bruises on his forehead could not be covered up.

Yes.

He is really scarred now, and he never dares to take out his hands from his pockets.

No one knows what he did during the past New Year's Eve, but Yin Hanruo knows one thing -

Liu Yanbo suffered huge physical and mental injuries last night.

Facing the already blossoming Yin Hanruo, Liu Yanbo was panicking. He didn't even dare to look at her eyes anymore. He wanted to gently wipe away the tears on her face, but he didn't dare to take his hands away from her.

He took it out of his pocket and tried his best to keep his voice steady and said: "Stop crying. If you cry any more, you won't look pretty."

"Let's go. If you have anything to say, let's talk about it when we get back."

At this time, Liu Yanbo no longer had the courage to face Yin Hanruo now, because he had realized that she should know something that he didn't want her to know.

That was his past, a nightmare that would linger throughout his life. He didn't want to mention it and was afraid that she would ask.

"Liu Yanbo..." Yin Hanruo reached out and held Liu Yanbo who wanted to go home. Her eyes washed by tears were filled with endless grievance and distress. "I am your wife, can you stop being here all the time?"

Pretending to be strong in front of me? Can you take off all your pretense in front of me?"

"Even if it's only for a moment, at least you can allow me to fulfill my responsibilities as your wife in this moment, okay?"

Yin Hanruo was begging. This was the first time in her life that she had begged so humbly to someone. But she didn't feel ashamed because the person she was begging for was Liu Yanbo, her husband. She just wanted to

Do your best to fulfill your responsibilities as a wife——

Can give him comfort when he is sad;

When he is lonely and helpless, you can give him a hug.

The so-called husband and wife——

Isn’t it necessary to support each other and rely on each other?

Liu Yanbo felt like he was struck by lightning. Yin Hanruo's words made him tremble physically and mentally. All the disguises he had created for himself were about to fall apart at this moment. He suddenly felt so tired that he wanted to fall to the ground. Then

Cry loudly.

Is Liu Yanbo a strong person?

He should be considered.

Even from some perspectives, Liu Yanbo is already a very strong and hard-hearted person, because he has gone through vicissitudes of life alone, and has endured the ups and downs of life alone while talking and laughing...

But such strength was never what he wanted.

In fact, no one in this world is born strong. Everyone will cry loudly the moment they are born, venting the difficulty of being born.

The so-called strong——

It's just a necessity that people get as they continue to grow, because no one really likes the helplessness of "the sun sets in the west, and the heartbroken people are at the end of the world", and those who say "I can live well alone"

The people are just in——

Pretending to be strong!

This is the nature that everyone is born with, and even Liu Yanbo, who regards human life as morning dew, is no exception. At best, he can only hide this vulnerability better.

But now, Yin Hanruo has severely broken it, causing all his psychological defenses to collapse.

certainly--

Liu Yanbo didn't really cry because of this. He just froze on the spot and dared to look at Yin Hanruo again.

He finally took off his disguise, and all the exhaustion spurted out from the depths of his heart at this moment, making his originally clear eyes seem to be covered with darkness and become hollow and lifeless.
