On the roads, the accumulated snow looked a little dirty because of the car tires and pedestrians that had trampled all over it. The snow in the area around their Tianfu Bay villa appeared much cleaner.

The remaining clean-looking snow had been more or less used up by the college students who went there for hotpot.

Tuan Tuan nodded, then turned to look at Lin Nuan, who was getting out of the car. “Mama! Snowman!”

Lin Nuan walked to Tuan Tuan’s side and bent over to fix his scarf for him. “There isn’t much clean snow here. Tuan Tuan and Auntie Xiaonian can pick the snow off the top and just make a little snowman…”

“It’s Sister Xiaonian!” Bai Xiaonian seriously emphasized to Tuan Tuan.

Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.

“What kind of expression is this?” Bai Xiaonian weighed the snowball in her hands that was mixed with mudwater, vibrantly smiling as she joked with Lin Nuan. “If you’re unwilling to concede defeat, come fight with me!”

“I don’t bully disabled people…” Lin Nuan glanced at Bai Xiaonian’s leg.

As snow fell around them and upon Lin Nuan and Bai Xiaonian’s eyelashes, other than their laughter, there was also the sound of their down jackets moving.

Bai Xiaonian hooked her arm around Lin Nuan’s. “Since you’re out with a disabled person, then you should be treating. I think Mrs. Fu won’t care about another $20!”

Bai Xiaonian’s usage of the words “Mrs. Fu” pleased Fu Huai’an. He locked the car door and walked to Lin Nuan’s side, stepping over the snow. He said to Bai Xiaonian, “How can I let women pay!”

Bending over to pick up Tuan Tuan, Fu Huai’an said to Bai Xiaonian and Lin Nuan, “Let’s go in!”

Not far away, in a car, Lu Jinnan was smoking with one hand on the steering wheel…

He hesitated about whether to go over right then or wait until they sat down and then pretend they were running into each other by chance.

Lu Jinnan knew that Lin Nuan sent their address to him out of kindness, so he didn’t want to abruptly appear and let Bai Xiaonian find out that it was Lin Nuan who had told him where they were, causing trouble for Lin Nuan.

When he received Lin Nuan’s message earlier, Lu Jinnan didn’t even reply before he grabbed his clothes and went out the door, speeding all the way there. His car tires had skidded, nearly resulting in an accident. Even thinking about it caused him lingering fears.

The windshield wiper swiped over twice, wiping away the accumulated snow on the windshield.

Amidst white smoke, Lu Jinnan’s eyes were fixated upon Bai Xiaonian’s smiling side profile. She looked fair and clean, like the snow falling around him, her facial features clean and aggressively beautiful!

As she stood there bare-faced and with her arms hooked with Lin Nuan’s, she looked stunning. She was born with long and narrow eyes that came up at the corners and glistened brightly, and her sharp nose resembled that of Europeans…

She had chestnut-colored wavy long hair and fringe that revealed her smooth and full forehead. It complimented her palm-sized petite face, making her look all the more lovely.

A woman like Bai Xiaonian would attract attention no matter where she went. Her beauty was unrestrained and way too eye-catching.

When Bai Xiaonian stood with Lin Nuan, they were both stunning beauties. One was seductively beautiful, whereas the other was delicately pretty. Nobody would have expected these two women to become friends.

According to people who judged others based on their looks…

Bai Xiaonian would be stereotyped as a scheming and manipulative woman who lived her life unrestrained.

Whereas Lin Nuan looked like the kind and resilient type, exuding positive energy.

Lu Jinnan tapped away his cigarette ash, his mind all jumbled up like a pot of burnt porridge.

He recalled something that his father said a while ago.

His father was very fond of Bai Xiaonian, and he truly regarded her as his daughter-in-law.

After Lu Jinbei drank a little too much and reprimanded Lu Jinnan for snatching his wife from him, his father was silent for a long while. Late into the night, he knocked on Lu Jinnan’s door!

He said… one couldn’t force things when it came to relationship matters. He also said that although Lu Jinbei and Bai Xiaonian were destined to meet, they weren’t destined to stay together. Since Lu Jinnan had made up his mind to be together with Bai Xiaonian, and since Bai Xiaonian didn’t mind Lu Jinnan’s past, he advised Lu Jinnan to treasure this relationship and make sure to make her his wife.

Ever since he had fallen out with Bai Xiaonian, Lu Jinnan regretted forcing Bai Xiaonian to choose between him and her career in a rash moment.

He clearly wanted Bai Xiaonian to stay, but somehow, in the end, things turned out this way…

Since he left after slamming Bai Xiaonian’s door, the cold wind helped Lu Jinnan come to his senses. How could he make Bai Xiaonian choose between two incomparable things?

One had stubbornly and proudly opened the door and tossed out Lu Jinnan’s jacket!

The other had picked up his jacket furiously and left without a word of explanation.

Lu Jinnan inhaled on his cigarette. His irrationality had a large part to do with how things had ended up that way.

So what if it was America? It wasn’t as if she was heading to the moon!

What was the big deal with him flying more than ten hours to meet someone he missed dearly in America just so he could have a meal with her?

What was distance compared to losing Bai Xiaonian, to losing his most beloved in this lifetime?

After taking one last puff of his cigarette, Lu Jinnan extinguished it in his car’s ashtray. He then picked up his down jacket from the front passenger seat and got out of the car, closing the car door behind him.

In the heavy snow, Lu Jinnan put on his down jacket, white smoke emitting from the corners of his lips as he strode towards the hotpot restaurant.

…

Once in the hotpot restaurant, their senses were attacked with the strong smells of Szechuan hotpot ingredients, coupled with hot air. Tuan Tuan sneezed from the choking smell.

“The environment isn’t so great. Why don’t we go to another restaurant?” Bai Xiaonian reached out and stroked Tuan Tuan’s little head.

Because it was an economical hotpot restaurant and there were schools nearby, the tables in the suites were large ones, designated for more than ten people. It was a place of gathering for nearby college students…

Seeing the three adults and one child entering, the waiter prepared to bring them to a four-seater table.

“Do you have a suite?” Fu Huai’an asked.

Perhaps because of Fu Huai’an’s imposing aura, the waiter was subconsciously respectful in his tone and choice of words when speaking with Fu Huai’an. “There’s still one suite. But the table in suites can accommodate ten people. Isn’t it a little too big for the four of you? Or… do you still have friends who have yet to arrive?”

The waiter glanced at the child in Fu Huai’an’s arms, then looked at the two ladies beside Fu Huai’an… One was wearing a mask, but from her eyes, it was easy to tell that she was stunning. As for the other, she was fair-skinned and beautiful. They didn’t look like ordinary people, no matter how one looked at them.

“I’ll take a suite. It’s too much for a child outside.”

Fu Huai’an didn’t leave any room for negotiation. The waiter subconsciously nodded. The high-and-mighty, imposing aura given off by Fu Huai’an made him unable to rebut him.

The waiter pushed open the door to the suite, then turned on the lights, though it didn’t seem to be warm inside. The waiter hurriedly took out the menu and a remote control for the air conditioner from the cabinets, turning it on. He placed the menu on the table, then started serving them tea.

It wasn’t considered cold in the suite. Lin Nuan removed her tweed cap and scarf and, only after taking off her mask, said, “We’ll pour the tea ourselves. Thanks!”
