What's Wrong with Getting a New Wife? [Rebirth] [MTL]

Chapter 78

The few days before the exam passed quickly, and after the exam, the winter vacation officially began.

　　It snowed heavily last night, and the sky cleared up this morning. The warm orange-yellow sun shone on the thick snow, reflecting a beautiful golden color.

　　Gu Ji finished the exam early and waited for Yan Congyu downstairs of the teaching building. When the other person appeared from the door, he quietly walked behind him and raised his hand to touch the back of the boy's neck.

　　Yan Congyu was shivering from the cold. He knew who it was without having to guess. He turned around but did not take the other person's hand away. Instead, he pressed his hand under his collar, trying to warm his hand. "...Your hands are so cold."

　　Gu Ji's fingers touched the raised collarbone, and he seemed to be able to feel the rhythm of the other person's heartbeat. He slowly withdrew his hand and smiled, "I just touched the snow."

　　Just now when I was waiting for Yan Congyu downstairs, I had nothing to do, so I made two snowmen with the snow on the windowsill.

　　"No wonder it's so cold—" Yan Congyu lowered his head and rubbed Gu Ji's hand, "Wear gloves next time."

　　"Are they cute?" Gu Ji pointed at the two little snowmen on the windowsill. They were only the size of a palm and so simple, just two balls, one big and one small, stacked together.

　　The little snowman had no expression and looked blank.

　　But after all, it was a ball made by Gu Ji himself, so it had some emotion in it.

　　"So cute." Yan Congyu's gaze was instantly diverted. He gently picked up the two snowmen on the windowsill, one in each hand, and asked, "Did you make them all?"

　　Gu Ji nodded.

　　Yan Congyu couldn't let it go, "Can you give it to me?"

　　"Take it if you like it." Gu Ji had made it casually when he was bored, and it was useless, so he reminded him, "But it will get your clothes wet if it melts later."

　　Yan Congyu held the two little snowmen in his hands, put their heads together, and said, "I'll take them home."

　　"It will also melt if you take it home." Gu Ji said indifferently, "and it will leave two puddles of water on the floor."

　　Yan Congyu: "..."

　　He couldn't free his hands, so he leaned over and gently bit Gu Ji's lips, whispering, "Put it in the refrigerator."

　　Gu Ji still couldn't understand Yan Congyu's decision to bring the snowman from school home. Although the distance was not far, it would be very troublesome if it melted in the car.

　　"I'll make two more for you when we get back." Gu Ji wanted to coax him into not taking the snowman home. There was a thick layer of snow everywhere these two days anyway, so he could make a few balls at any time.

　　"Okay." Yan Congyu leaned against Gu Ji's face and said in a cheerful voice, "Then I will have four."

　　Gu Ji: "?"

　　After realizing that the other party had misunderstood him, he said with a smile: "I mean that you put these two here, and I will make new ones when I go back."

　　"Put them here?" Yan Congyu frowned. Not to mention that they would be melted by the sun, they would probably be damaged by passing students before they could melt naturally.

　　Besides, it's vacation now, and it's not ethical to leave the snowman downstairs of the teaching building as they don't have to go to class.

　　"Take them back." Seeing that Yan Congyu really wanted them, Gu Ji half-compromised and said, "Put them in the refrigerator, pour chocolate sauce on them, and freeze them into ice cream."
