    On Christmas Day, the temperature in Baihai dropped sharply, and the meteorological observatory issued a snowfall warning.

    At three o¡¯clock in the morning, Xia Wancheng was woken up by a phone call in her sleep.

    The call came from a completely unfamiliar number, and Xia Wancheng pressed the answer button in a daze.

    ¡°It¡¯s 23:58 on December 25th, Modisha time. I wish you a Merry Christmas.¡±

    When Xia Wancheng heard this voice, she suddenly woke up.

    "Howhow did you get to Modisha? How long has it been?"

    Xia Wancheng bit her tongue as she spoke, but Micheal said slowly and calmly: "The medical supplies and equipment we were traveling with were delayed for some time on the road."

    Xia Wancheng asked nervously: "Where are you now? Are you safe? Is Modisha still fighting?"

    "We are now very safe at the military base of country C. We are surrounded by United Nations peacekeeping troops. Today is Christmas, and Modisha is very quiet and peaceful."

    Xia Wancheng breathed a sigh of relief, "I also wish you a Merry Christmas."

    Micheal asked at the other end: "Modisha has great sunshine and blue sky today. Where is Baihai, is it snowing?"

    "No¡­¡­"

    Xia Wancheng reached out to pull the curtains, only to see a thin layer of snow accumulated on the windowsill.  She raised her eyes and saw that in the funnel-shaped light reflected by the warm street lights, the white snow in the sky was falling.

    Xia Wancheng opened the window and stretched out her hand, feeling the ice crystals falling on her palm melting little by little.

    She was shocked and said: "It's snowing. It's snowing in Baihai. It's the first snow this year."

    Micheal smiled on the other end of the phone and said, "That's great."

    ¡°I¡¯ll take a video and send it to you.¡±

    "The network here is very unstable. I am using a satellite phone to contact you now."

    Xia Wancheng was disappointed, "Bohai is the most beautiful all year round only when it snows."

    It doesn¡¯t matter, I will definitely be able to see the first snow next year.

    Xia Wancheng heard the sound of helicopter propellers on the phone and felt very uneasy.  She asked: "It's so late, and there are still military missions?"

    "It's just a routine patrol."

    "If the Internet can be used, please give me your address as soon as possible, and I will see if there is anything I can send to you"

    "Don't worry, I don't need anything."

    Micheal smiled again and said: "Okay, Christmas in Modisha has passed. There are other colleagues here who want to call their families to report that they are safe, and I am ready to say goodbye to you."

    "etc¡­¡­"

    Xia Wancheng was anxious to speak out, but then she didn't know what she was going to say.  She was silent, and the other end of the phone was waiting quietly. After a long time, Xia Wancheng asked: "When will you come back?"

    "Soon."

    After these two words fell, Xia Wancheng could only hear a series of beeps.

    She hung up the phone and sat in front of the window, looking at the falling snow and feeling empty in her heart.

    Xia Wancheng didn¡¯t sleep well that night. As soon as she closed her eyes, she saw the sky covered by smoke in Modisha and the blood splashing on the ruined walls.

    As soon as it got light in the morning, Xia Wancheng was woken up by the sound of the door opening and closing next to her.  She knew it was Xia Zaogan who got up to make Christmas desserts, so she also got up to help.

    Around lunchtime, all the cute cookies were packed and Xia Wancheng put them into exquisite gift boxes along with greeting cards.

    Mother Lin came over at this time and said, "Mr. Lei is here to visit."

    Lei Kong walked in carrying large and small bags of things. He looked up and when he didn't see Xia Zaogan's figure, he smiled and walked to Xia Wancheng's side, reaching out to grab the biscuits in the jar.

    Xia Wancheng reminded, "This is what my sister wants to give away."

    "I can eat two secretly and no one will find out."

    As soon as Lei Kong said this, he heard Xia Zaogan¡¯s voice from upstairs, ¡°I have prepared a separate gift for Xiao Cheng¡¯s friend.¡±

    Lei Kong raised his head in panic, but there were still biscuit crumbs on his hands and mouth. For a moment, he couldn't quibble, and his face turned red with irritation.

    Xia Zaogan slowly came down from upstairs, picked up a wrapped gift box and handed it to Lei Kong's hand, "This is for you."

    Lei Kong suddenly became cheeky again, and said sweetly with a smile: "Thank you, sister."

    Xia Zaogan's eyelids twitched, and he immediately looked away and said to Xia Wancheng, "Take these on the table and give them to your friends."

    Lei Kong suddenly reacted at this moment and asked: "Are these cookies given every Christmas?""Our family has this habit."

    Lei Kong looked straight at Xia Wancheng, "Why didn't I last year? Who did you give it to?"

    In Xia Wancheng¡¯s impression, it seemed that she had eaten all the food herself, and left all the rest to Micheal.

    "Can not remember."

    Lei Kong asked with a cold expression: "Did it all go to Xu Xingzhi?"

    Xia Zaogan chimed in, "Xingzhi, that kid doesn't like sweets."

    Lei Kong was a little relaxed just now, but because of Xia Zaogan's words, he became excited. He asked directly: "Sister, do you know what I like to eat?"

    Xia Zaogan was inexplicably stunned on the spot, while Xia Wancheng couldn't bear to watch and turned her head completely.

    Xia Zaogan laughed dryly, "We don't seem to have a relationship that requires understanding like this."

    "Xia Wancheng has"

    Lei Kong glanced at Xia Wancheng, and suddenly said with a cold face and a serious voice: "Xia Wancheng, where is your ring?"

    Xia Wancheng looked at her empty hands and couldn't remember when she picked them and where she put them.  She said casually: "I took it off when I was helping my sister knead the dough."

    Xia Zaogan suddenly looked over sharply.  Xia Wancheng knew from the way Xia Zaogan looked at her that Xia Zaogan had misunderstood the meaning of the ring.  "Just a Christmas present," she explained.

    Lei Kong turned around and asked, "What Christmas gift?"

    Xia Wancheng shook his head and did not continue the topic.

    Xia Wancheng found the ring in the soap box next to the sink.  She put the ring back on her middle finger and listened to Lei Kong talking to Xia Zaogan outside:

    ¡°Sister, I¡¯m hungry, what should we have for lunch?¡±

    There was no hint of concern in his tone.

    Xia Zaogan answered him politely and distantly: "If Mr. Lei intends to stay at our house for lunch, I will ask Mother Lin to cook more dishes. I just don't know what you like to eat."

    "It doesn't have to be so troublesome. Xia Wancheng can cook whatever you want."

    As soon as Xia Wancheng arrived at the door, she heard Xia Zaogan say: "Our little Cheng is very precious and never cooks."

    As soon as Xia Zaogan said this, Lei Kong was shocked and asked bluntly: "She didn't cook for you?"

    Xia Zaogan was vaguely aware of something and said stubbornly: "Our Xiao Cheng's soup-making is first-rate. It's just that our family has always been reluctant to use her."

    From Xia Wancheng's perspective, one could see Lei Kong's eager smile. He straightened his chest and held his head high, proudly showing off to Xia Zaogan: "I got off work late before, and Xia Wancheng even made me a midnight snack."  ¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
