I also don’t think that I have anything to be ashamed of. Really.

Gu Mingxi really took off his shoes and helped Pang Qian build a snowman.

Pang Qian was in charge of gathering the snow and Gu Mingxi was in charge of building it. He sat on the snow-covered ground, leaning back, forming a “V” with his upper body and legs. Lifting his two legs, he kept pressing the snow that Pang Quan tossed over. Gradually, the snowman’s form was shaped out by him. It just wasn’t very tall, kind of cone-shaped.

When they were making the head, he stood up. He stood on his left leg, and used his right leg to help Pang Qian round out the head. Sometimes his foot would touch her hand. And while Pang Qian could call out, “Move your stinking feet!” Gu Mingxi knew that she didn’t really mind.

After some hard work, they finally had a snowman that was only as tall as their waist. Pang Qian brushed off her hands as curled her lips in disdain. “It’s so ugly.”

The snowman was indeed ugly. Two leaves as eyes, a tree branch as a nose. Even the head was drooping. Gu Mingxi stood beside Pang Qian, moved his shoulders, and didn’t have any ideas either. Interest lost, Pang Qian rubbed her hands dry on her clothes. Then she picked up both of their bags and said, “Let’s go home. I’m tired /bored.”

Gu Mingxi blinked and opened his mouth, but didn’t say anything. Then he sat down and started putting on his socks and shoes.

Pang Qian didn’t know that because he’d sat on the ground for a long time, his pants were soaked with ice water. And right now, it was bitter cold. And also, because he had stepped on the snow with his bare feet, his feet were now numb from the cold. They were all red and he couldn’t feel the tips of his toes.

Pang Qian was swaying on the side when she heard Gu Mingxi call, “Pang Pang!”

She turned around and glared at him, “Don’t call me Fattie!”

“Not Fattie, Pang Pang.” Gu Mingxi said softly, “Come over and help me. My toes are frozen, so I can’t get my shoes on.”

Pang Qian heard bad cry in her heart. She dropped the backpacks and ran over to him. Seeing his wet pants and red feet, she nearly cried. “Oh no! Your mom will definitely tell my mom, and then my mom’s going to beat me to death!”

Gu Mingxi, “…”

With a bitter face, Pang Qian crouched down to help him with his socks and shoes. After realizing his socks were wet, she wanted to cry even more. After staying silent for a moment, Gu Mingxi said, “I just won’t tell my mom. Don’t worry.”

“Then if your mom asks you why your pants are wet, what are you going to say?”

Gu Mingxi seriously thought for a moment, then said, “Why don’t I say I fell on the way home?”

“If you fell, your mom will still tell my mom! And then she’ll beat me just the same!”

Seeing Pang Qian crying out from worry, Gu Mingxi, who had put on his shoes, got up slowly. He said, “Alright, I promise I won’t tell my mom. Okay?”

“Really?” Pang Qian tilted her head to look at him.

“Really,” Gu Mingxi walked to her side, and pushed her slightly with his shoulder. “Let’s go home. It will be dark soon.”
