The winds were strong in the capital city for the past two days, and the haze as well .
From experience, hailing a ride at the South entrance was difficult . So Su Yue headed straight towards the main entrance .
She tucked her hands into her pink woolen jacket . She retracted her neck and pulled her clothes tighter around herself, bowing her head as she strode forward .
As she walked, she was thinking about what to give Ming Ansheng as a surprise .
Just for this, she never contacted him since she got back .
Ming Ansheng should be at work . So she would have the entire day to prepare .
That was sufficient .

But what should she prepare?
The only thing she could come up with was a candlelit dinner . Although it seemed old-fashioned, it would pleasantly surprise Uncle Ming if she prepared everything herself . He would love it .
So, it was settled then .
Su Yue imagined his face of shock when he came home from work to see the candlelit dinner she had prepared . She smiled sweetly .
A cold gust of wind blew and she lifted her head .
Her smile stiffened when she saw a couple walking towards her . The handsome and cheery boy was smiling warmly .
Like the warm sun shining through the haze .
The girl beside him was wearing a deep blue woolen sweater, with a champagne red scarf around her neck . Her hair reached her waist and she was carrying a few books, exuding an air of elegance that of a gentlewoman .

Graceful and demure .
A mixture of emotions filled Su Yue as she watched them .
She halted in her steps before continuing her walk .
"Let's go together the day after tomorrow . "
The girl lifted her head to look at the boy beside her but he stared forward, giving no reaction . She frowned in confusion . "Jiao Chen…?"
She then followed his gaze .
Shock filled her face when she saw Su Yue . Her bright eyes lost some initial sparkle .
They were walking towards each other and they finally came face to face .
Jiao Chen loved the color white . He was wearing a white down coat and had his hands tucked into the pockets of his black jersey shorts .
He plainly stared at Su Yue, his lips pressed together and not saying a word .
Su Yue looked at him . "Jiaojiao . "
Her gaze fell on the girl standing beside him . She remembered addressing him as Jiaojiao earlier, and she hurriedly opened her mouth to explain herself .
Jiao Chen suddenly spoke . "Why are you wearing so little?"
He frowned and stared at her clothes, unable to hide the concern in his voice .
"Is it little?" Su Yue asked . The tip of her nose and her face had already turned red from the cold . She sniffed and rubbed her nose, mucus flowing . She flashed an embarrassed smile . "I'm fine . It's not cold . "
She didn't expect it to be so cold when she left the house earlier that day .
All she could think about was dressing up for Uncle Ming .
When she alighted from the car earlier, she still felt fine . But now, it seemed exceptionally cold .
Jiao Chen laughed, revealing his perfect white teeth . His voice was affectionate as he teased, "Do you have enough fats to withstand this weather that's below zero degrees?"
The warmest temperature that day was below zero degrees .
"I'm less susceptible to cold," Su Yue smiled and said . She then added, "You're heading back to the dormitory?"
Jiao Chen nodded . "I came from the counselor's . "
