Chapter 180 The Beauty of Greed
Chapter 180 The Beauty of Greed
Chi Feiwan didn’t know that Chi Shiyun had returned to China, and she was eager to spend the New Year alone at home.
When you gradually get used to spending the Dragon Year Chinese New Year alone, you will be surprised to realize that this deserted and lonely way of celebrating the holiday is actually not as bad as you imagined.
Chi Feiwan has long been accustomed to this way.
In an environment without noise and disturbance, Chi Feiwan can do whatever she wants. She is the host and she has the final say on whether there are guests or not.
No need to get up early to entertain guests or to please others.
Chi Feiwan stayed alone at home for the New Year, but she did not feel lonely or deserted. On the contrary, she created a strong festive atmosphere in a unique way.
The windows of her home are carefully decorated with various exquisite window grilles. These window grilles seem like works of art drawn by her personally. Each piece carries her beautiful expectations and blessings for the New Year. The red paper-cuts are engraved with auspicious patterns. Looking through these window grilles, the world outside the window seems to become more colorful.
Chi Feiwan didn't want to cook, so he ordered takeout.
Garlic-flavored crayfish, Kung Pao chicken, braised fish, sweet and sour spare ribs, fish-flavored shredded pork, mapo tofu... the table was filled with dishes, exuding an enticing aroma.
Chi Feiwan looked at the delicious food in front of her and counted carefully. The table of dishes cost about 200 yuan, which was definitely the most expensive takeout she had ever ordered.
Thinking that he usually just filled his stomach with something casually in order to save money, Chi Feiwan decided to enjoy this sumptuous dinner today.
She took a deep breath and picked up the chopsticks. She first picked up a crayfish, peeled the shell, revealing the tender and juicy shrimp meat. She dipped it in the rich garlic sauce, put it in her mouth and chewed it lightly, and her mouth was immediately filled with fragrance.
This delicious meal not only satisfied Chi Feiwan's taste buds, but also allowed her to temporarily forget the troubles and pressures in her life.
She didn't care even if she couldn't finish all the food on the table by herself.
Chi Feiwan was eating and watching videos when a message popped up on the top of his phone.
She clicked on it with one hand and found that it was sent by Song Jinan.
[Come to the balcony. 】
Chi Feiwan didn't understand, but still listened to him, put down the chopsticks in his hand, and walked towards the balcony.
There were only a few clothes on the balcony, making it look a little empty.
Chi Feiwan walked slowly to the edge of the balcony, his steps light and cautious.
She stood there quietly, her eyes inadvertently sweeping downwards. At this moment, a familiar figure came into her sight. Song Jinan was waving at her, his smile bright and warm.
Chi Feiwan smiled slightly and waved to Song Jinan in response.
The sunlight shines between them, as if connecting the two of them together, forming a beautiful and harmonious picture.
At this moment, time seemed to stand still, with only the breeze gently blowing across my cheeks, bringing a cool feeling.
There was snow in the air, but there seemed to be a barrier between the two of them. No matter how big the snowflakes were, they couldn't cover their gazes.
Chi Feiwan was on a low floor, and she was not nearsighted, so her vision was very clear. She guessed from Song Jinan's lip shape that he said the words "go downstairs".
Chi Feiwan's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. She hesitated for a moment, but finally turned back to the house. After changing her clothes, she hurried downstairs and came to Song Jinan.
It was that familiar black down jacket again, and the pants were a pair of pajamas, made of fleece.
It's manageable indoors, but the cold outside is real.
"What do you want to talk to me about?" There was a hint of expectation in Chi Feiwan's voice.
Song Jinan smiled and handed her a delicate little box, "Happy New Year, this is a gift for you."
Chi Feiwan took the box, opened it and saw a beautiful necklace inside. The diamonds were sparkling brightly in the sunlight.
She has collected a lot of jewelry, of all prices. The necklace Chi Jinshu gave her also exudes such a glow, but it is more expensive. However, she has never worn it and just treated it as a collection.
Even though the necklace Song Jinan gave her was worth only a few digits, Chi Feiwan was extremely happy.
"Thank you, Song Jinan." Chi Feiwan smiled happily.
Song Jinan's eyes were full of tenderness. "This necklace suits you very well. It is as beautiful as you are."
Chi Feiwan's face flushed, and she lowered her head, "Did you come to me just to give me a gift?"
"Boring?" Song Jinan whispered.
"what?"
"Are you bored at home alone?"
"Fortunately."
“Can you push a snowman?”
Chi Feiwan smiled bitterly: "I know a little, but I didn't wear gloves."
Song Jinan took off the gloves on his hands and said, "I'll lend you mine."
"What about you?"
Song Jinan smiled and said, "It's okay, I have a thick skin."
This is snow, not ice water, and if you are in contact with it for a long time, you will definitely freeze if you don't wear gloves. Chi Feiwan didn't answer: "Song Jinan, you wear it, I'll go back and get it."
After saying that, Chi Feiwan ran out of Song Jinan's sight.
Chi Feiwan quickly ran back upstairs, took a pair of gloves and hurried downstairs again.
When she came downstairs again, she found that Song Jinan was gone.
She looked everywhere for Song Jinan, feeling a little lost.
Just when she was about to give up, she suddenly heard laughter coming from not far away.
She looked in the direction of the sound and saw Song Jinan making a cute little snowman not far away.
Chi Feiwan walked closer and saw that the snowman had a sweet smile on his face, looking lifelike. She couldn't help but praise him, "Wow, what a cute snowman!"
Song Jinan turned to look at Chi Feiwan and said with a smile: "I just went to find some materials and want to decorate the snowman. Wait for me."
After saying that, Song Jinan ran to the side, picked up a few branches and some stones, and began to dress up the snowman carefully.
Chi Feiwan stood quietly aside, watching Song Jinan's focused look, feeling an indescribable emotion in his heart.
After a while, the snowman became more vivid and interesting, and Song Jinan clapped his hands in satisfaction. He looked up at Chi Feiwan, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes: "This snowman is for you, I hope it can bring you happiness."
"Didn't you say we should do it together?" Chi Feiwan didn't mean to blame her; she said it with a smile.
Song Jinan scratched his head embarrassedly: "I want to give you a surprise."
Chi Feiwan didn't say anything, and Song Jinan thought Chi Feiwan was angry.
He came up with an idea and pushed down the snowman he had built: "Okay, let's build it together."
Chi Feiwan was stunned: "You..."
"I see you are angry, so..."
"I'm not angry." Chi Feiwan shook his head helplessly.
It’s not Song Jinan’s fault that she thought too much. There was just no smile on her face, as if she was angry.
The snowman was destroyed, so Chi Feiwan and Song Jinan squatted down and rebuilt the snowman together.
After Chi Feiwan finished making the head, all that was left was to decorate it. Song Jinan found a few dead branches under a tree not far away.
Suddenly, a snowball of moderate size hit Chi Feiwan's head accurately.
The snowball was broken into pieces, and snow fell all over the place.
Chi Chi Feiwan looked in that direction and saw Song Jinan standing not far away with a sly smile on his face and a snowball in his hand.
He was evidently preparing to strike at some unfortunate target.
Song Jinan's eyes flashed with mischief. He bent down slightly, adjusted his posture, then held the snowball tightly in his hand, ready to throw it at any time.
Chi Feiwan couldn't help feeling happy when he looked at Song Jinan.
So, Chi Feiwan also joined in the fun.
Snowballs were flying in the air and laughter was echoing in the air.
Chi Feiwan and Song Jinan enjoyed this moment of joy to the fullest, as if they had forgotten all their worries.
Before I knew it, the sky gradually darkened and the snow stopped.
The two stood side by side, looking at each other's red cheeks from being hit by snowballs, and smiled at each other.

Let me clarify this here.
Jiang Huaixu is still the hero of this book, but he is not Wanwan’s hero.
