Lilly put on her clothes and shoes, showered and ran out of the room.

Polly followed closely behind, fluttering its wings. Bellflower was itching, it wished it could bite it off.

“Ga~ Good morning!” Polly landed on Lilly’s shoulder.

It had been too cold recently, and it could not go out at all. It could only look at the snowflakes through the window at home, and it was almost suffocating.

Lilly looked at it from the side, reached out to touch its head, and said, “Good morning, Polly!”

Polly rubbed her hand affectionately, and said, “Baby! I went to buy oysters! However, on the way home, the oysters jumped out of the bag and got into the mud! Do you know why?”

Lilly’s voice was soft and waxy, “Why?”

Polly, “Because the oysters like mud!”

“……”

Bellflower rolled its eyes.

Lilly shook her head and ran downstairs.

Today was the winter solstice, and grandma said to make sesame and peanut filling waffles.

She wanted to take her aunt to recharge early, let her fill her stomach with food first, and then she could make waffles with her grandma when she got back early.

“Are you going today?” Blake was not out for a run, and just came down from upstairs.

Last night, his little girl warmed up the meal and waited for him to come back, but unfortunately she was already asleep when he came back.

“Father!” Lilly’s eyes lit up, before she could pounce on him, Blake scooped her up.

“Let us go, Dad drives. Your uncle could not do it on such a snowy day.”

Anthony raised his head and glanced at him.

The three adults and two children went out after breakfast, Hannah clamored to follow, but Old Mrs. Crawford did not allow it, saying that it was snowing too much outside and she would make trouble.

Zachary stood at the door, holding a thick notebook in his hand, and said, “Come back early, I made an upgraded guide for you.”

Josh led Lisa to go out, Josh put his hands in his pockets and stood coolly at the door.

Josh raised his eyebrows, “Brother, are you sure you do not want to go? If you want to go, just say it. Is it not normal for a child to follow his mother? Or do you want to follow sister?”

Josh scoffed coldly, “Do not bother!”

Blake picked up Lilly and ran towards the car, “Let us go!”

Lilly giggled.

“Come back early!” Old Mrs. Crawford told Anthony, “Be careful to put gloves on Lilly, do not freeze.”

Anthony nodded.

Old Mrs. Crawford smiled and watched off. Today, Lilly changed into a black down jacket and matched it with a pink hat decorated with a fluffy white rabbit.

It looked sweet, sweet and soft.

She stuck her head out of the window, raised her hand and waved to old Mrs. Crawford with a big smiling face, and Old Mrs. Crawford also waved.

However, seeing the car disappear at the end of the road, Old Mrs. Crawford’s eyelids twitched for some reason.

“What is going on…” Old Mrs. Crawford muttered, stretched out her hand and rubbed it, “The eyelids keep twitching, is it okay…”

Old Mr. Crawford was watching the news, and said casually, “What could happen, Anthony is watching, and Blake is also here, there should be nothing to worry about it.”

Old Mrs. Crawford’s eyelids were still twitching, which made her inexplicably uneasy, and she was not in the mood to even hit the old man with her bare hands.

She worriedly called Anthony, “It is snowing and the road is slippery, tell Blake to drive carefully!”

Anthony’s voice came, “Do not worry, Blake knows it well.”

Lilly was in the car, she was more careful than anyone else.

Old Mrs. Crawford nodded, thought for a while, and said, “Come back early, take care of Lilly, do not let their two children get out of the car when it is too cold.”

Anthony hummed and hung up the phone.

Lilly asked, “What is wrong with grandma?”

Anthony looked at her sideways and said, “She is okay.”

The car stopped by the side of the road at the foot of the barren hill.

This place was relatively remote, and there were few people walking. There was no special person to shovel the snow. After getting out of the car, they had to walk the road to the foot of the barren mountain by themselves.

Lisa got out of the car first, and Lilly laid on the window of the off-road vehicle, waving at her.

“Auntie, go and come back quickly, be careful!”

Lisa turned her head and nodded while walking forward.

As a result, she slipped and fell, and rolled into the snowdrift.

Josh, “…”

Anthony, “…”

Josh hurriedly wanted to get out of the car, but Anthony had already opened the car door and said, “Do not go down, the snow is too deep.”

Anthony had long legs, and it was okay to step on the snow, but his black clothes were covered with bits and pieces of white snow.

“Can you get up?” Anthony stretched out his hand.

Lisa was lying on the snow, staring at him.

“Raw… Oysters,” she said.

Anthony, “?”

She wanted to eat oysters?

He grabbed her hand and pulled her up, “I will go back and ask someone to do it.”

Lisa frowned, tried hard to recall, and repeated again, “Wash…”

She looked at the tall and straight man in front of her, snowflakes were floating on his hair, but he frowned slightly, still did not understand her.

Lisa worked hard again, stumbled and finally said the two words she wanted to say, “I… Like.”

Anthony was slightly taken aback.

The girl in front of her had a pale but beautiful face, her black curly eyelashes were slightly blinking, she was struggling to speak, but she was working hard.

She held out her hand, as if she wanted to give him something.

Anthony stretched out his hand subconsciously, and saw that she put a handful of snow mixed with mud in his palm, which was a bit dirty.

Lisa repeated vigorously, “I… Like!”

She looked at him, spoke clearly, and said with certainty, “I… Like… You!”

Anthony understood it this time. For a split second, she only heard the wind and snow blowing by, and her crisp voice echoed in her ears: I like you.

It turned out to be…

She was not just saying wash.

She wanted to say that she liked him?

When Anthony came back to his senses, Lisa had already set foot on the barren mountain path, only her shadow was left.

The mountain was covered by heavy snow, and she was the only one walking alone, moving forward step by step with incomparable determination.

Anthony pursed his lips, looking at the snow in his palm.

He clenched his hands tightly, the snow that had not melted in Lisa’s hands quickly turned into a puddle of water in his palm.

Lilly was sitting in the car, while Pablo was saying, “After this winter solstice, let us send your aunt away!”

He looked at the brochure with a cold voice, “The longer you stay, the worse it will be for you.”

Lilly pouted, and asked, “Is it that foolish the Ruler of Hell again? I will not let my aunt go. Is he going to catch me? If he has the ability, he will come!”

Pablo was full of black lines, and was speechless for a while.

Lilly kicked her two little feet, and when her feet moved, the socks in the shape of bright yellow ducklings also became flexible.

She did not know what she was thinking, but suddenly said in a low voice, “Master, I understand, I will tell grandma and the others tonight.”

Josh had a bad feeling, “What do you say?”

Lilly did not answer, but lowered the window and leaned on the window to see the dazed uncle in the distance.

“Uncle~” Lilly waved at him.

Anthony turned his head and was about to raise his hand to respond, but at this moment he did not know what he saw, his pupils shrank suddenly.
