The winter in Haishi was particularly cold this year, although it hadn't snowed, there was a chill in the air.

As December drew to a close, the new year was just around the corner.

Jennie lay on the sofa, looking at her computer, while Lisa sat in a chair next to her, reading a document. The atmosphere was warm and peaceful.

The computer made a "ding ding" sound, and Lisa looked up.

"Sorry, did I disturb you?" Jennie quickly turned the sound off.

"No," he shook his head, his hand holding the pen stiffened for a moment.

Jennie smiled at him and opened the chat software.

It was a message from Jisoo.

"I'm coming back for New Year's Eve, come pick me up?"

In this world, Jisoo had gone abroad with his parents after graduating from high school and hadn't returned for several years.

"Okay, send me the flight number and time," Jennie replied decisively.

Soon, a string of information came through. The room fell silent for a moment, interrupted only by the sound of typing.

Lisa couldn't help but stop writing and looked up at her. The moonlight outside the window was particularly bright at night.

The girl was nestled on the sofa, tapping away at the keyboard with a soft smile on her lips.

Lisa's heart skipped a beat, suddenly feeling uneasy.

Who was she chatting with that made her so happy?

Lisa pursed his lips, realizing that days of intimacy had made him let his guard down. The once timid man finally emerged from his shell and was no longer as cautious as before.

He put down the document in his hand and leaned over.

Suddenly, the sofa next to her sank, startling Jennie and causing her to pause her typing.

She looked up and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing," Lisa felt a bit uneasy in his heart, but he didn't want to admit it, so he said awkwardly, "I just finished work."

'So, can you accompany me?', he quietly said in his heart.

The girl seemed like a small detector that had drilled into his heart, and she immediately understood his meaning. She lowered her head and typed on her computer for a few seconds before putting it down.

"Then let's go watch a movie," her bright eyes curved into a crescent moon, "There was a new one released a few days ago, and I really want to see it."

"Okay," Lisa immediately agreed.

"Then I'll go do my makeup and change clothes, and you can buy the tickets," the girl happily jumped off the sofa, her back light and nimble like a night elf.

Lisa looked at her beautiful dress and felt that it was already perfect, so why did she need to change? But he never questioned anything the girl said.

"What time do you want to see?" he asked towards the closed changing room.

The girl's voice came softly, "Whenever, any time after an hour."

A small smile appeared on Lisa's cold and stern face as he lowered his head to book tickets on his phone. Suddenly, a small box popped up in the upper right corner of her laptop.

"Remember to come pick me up."

When Lisa saw the three characters "Jisoo," his hand holding the phone froze, and a chill slowly rose in his heart.
