An Ziyan has gone to his grandfather's house in anther city for the New Year. Mai Ding blows on his hands and goes out from the warm room with an envelope, sends his greeting card to the address that Bai Xiaosi gave him. Mai thinks that it is more meaningful to send a card rather than sending one message. Seeing the envelope drop into the postbox, he taps the postbox: "Bro, my love counts on you, so please sends it to him soon." (I think it is more reliable to say it to the postman.)
Mai cannot help shivering just with his pajamas, and he is trebling back to the room, looks out of the window. He is not nervous until the postman took away the letter. Mai's hometown is far, so the family goes back to hometown twice or three times a year. This year the Mais are here for the New Year.
Mai knows that he may miss An when they are apart, but he has no idea he misses An so much. However, he is not going to call An, which will makes him feel proud. He decides to turn away from An to make An can realize the importance of himself. Lovers like to play theses tricks with each other.
The Chinese New Year's Eve is coming, although there are three persons at home, it is very cheerful. Everything is right. Mai is missing An while looking at the rain: When do they can be together for the New Year.
In another city, An Su is back home and tosses one letter to An Ziyan. When An Ziyan sees the irregular words, he realizes who wrote it. He opens the letter slowly, one red card with two chubby kids falls out. It is old-fashioned.
An turns the letter back, several words on it:
Happy New Year, my An Ziyan. It is sleeting now and cold, but I will wait for you to warm me. Next year, you should give your love to me unceasingly.
Your Mai Ding.
An Ziyan cursed: " Little fool."
An Su leaned closer: " Who wrote this?"
"It is none of your business." An Ziyan put the card into his bag.
Actually An Su has already guessed the answer. It is nobody but Mai Ding. She sneered:" Xiao Si is back. Why do you still be together with that man. Grandpa is not very well. What if he knows it and be sick? This year, Xiao Si made excuses to avoid to come my home. Did you do something to hurt her?"
When An Ziyan got home, An Su kept talking about this thing in his ear.
" I am talking to you, look at your indifferent attitude! Sometimes I do not really know what you are thinking about. Is there anything wrong with Xiao Si? What is the advantage of Mai Ding? Did you become a blind?" An Su with an angry voice.
"You should know it is time to shut up."
"I am your elder sister!"
"You had better not touch my thing, and no comments on them." An Ziyan stands up and goes out of the door. He is against the wall and has a look at the clock, takes out the phone and calls Mai Ding when the time is about 12.00 pm. Mai Ding answers the call immediately. He has waited the call for a long time.
"You have realized call me ?" Mai said spitefully.
No can speaks, Mai keeps talking, "is it ok there? I am so envy you that you can celebrate the festival with grandparents. I cannot enjoy the moment like this." Mai lies on the bed and talks with An Ziyan.
"If you want it, you can come."
"What are you talking about! No one wants to be with you for the New Year." An's sudden words make Mai feel a little shy:" well, when can you come back?"
"So?"
"I seem to miss you, but you could not be happy so much, just a little. My life is still colorful without you."
"Hum."
"What?" Mai Ding curls his lip, when he listens to the cold response.
Five, four, three, two, one. The bell is ringing and the blasting sound of fireworks soars to their ears. Mai Ding gets up, open the curtains, and see the gorgeous sky.
"Happy New Year, An Ziyan."
"Mai Ding."
"What?"
"You should understand."
"What?"
"I love you." An hangs up the phone. Mai Ding is distracted there. What did the guy say just now? Did I hear that right? He can even say these words. The heart of Mai is colorful as fireworks. What is the happiness? It is all that lovers' talk. Mai Ding drops on the bed. This New Year is really wonderful.
An hammers the wall with irritable mood. It is really awkward to say these fucking words.
But they are all that Mai Ding wants to listen to.
n return for the happiness that An Ziyan gave to him, Mai Ding sends one text message to An:"recently I have listened to one song online." He spends about one hour to edit the lyrics and sends the message at night.
Greatest as you
Allest as me
You show me what is deep sea
A little love
A little kiss
A little hug
A little gift
All of little some thing these are memories
You make me cry
Make me smile
Make me feel the love is true
You always stand by my side
I don't want to say goodbye
You make me cry
Make me smile
Make me feel the joy of love
Kissing you
Thank you for all the love you always give to me
Oh I love you
" An Ziyan I learn how to sing it and sing it for you at home."
"No."
Every one knows the terrible voice of Mai Ding.
The spring festival is to the end casually. Mai Ding thinks that the spring gala of this year is more boring than that in last year. It is less human and more digital techniques. In childhood, the reason why we look forward to spring festival is that we can get lucky money. When grew up. What we expect is less. So Mai Ding is not into the festival so much.
An Ziyan should be back when the festival is over.
He cannot help calling An Ziyan: "are you back?"
"Yeah."
"Have you brought local specialty to me ?"
"No."
"why, are you at home? My mother made some dumplings and I take some for you."
An Ziyan wants to refuse Mai Ding's enthusiasm, but finally he don't do that. Mai took three hours to bring dumplings to An's. When he arrives at the door, he sees a car here. Althoug he knows nothing about cars, he knows the car is new and beautiful. Does someone come here? Why An Ziyan did not tell him. He looks into the window with furtive behaviour. There is no one here but An Ziyan who is playing with a computer. Mai knocks the window and in a low voice: "An Ziyan, it is me, Mai Ding." Like a spy.
An turns back and sees Mai Ding with furtive behaviors: "What are you doing?"
"Are any guests at your home? I am afraid that it is not convenient."
"No one but me."
Mai Ding in a formal voice: "No one here? Whose car there?"
"Mine."
"Did you buy a new car again? Are you kidding? If you have much money, why not donate it to hope primary schools? Why are you so heartless? Why not think about our country and poor children. Chinese are shame on you."
"Someone sent to me."
"Who is so foolish to send it to you, he did not know how to use it?" No matter who wastes money, he will be blamed by Mai Ding.
Mai is looking at the car and comes to it, lying on the glass, says admiringly: "Good car, pretty good." Then he goes back to window and says to An: "Does the new car have new functions?"
An is playing with a computer, because of backing to Mai, Mai cannot see smile on face of An,: "All are controlled by voice."
Mai opens his mouth in astonishment: "Really?! Has the technology reached so high level? So, can I have a try?"
"Ok."
Mai puts the dumplings aside, and walks around the car for several times, clears the throat: "Unlock." The car makes a sound, the light is on, the lock is open. Mai Ding is more excited. He says to An Ziyan who uses the car key unlock the car: " An, it is amazing."
"Open the door."
The door of the car is not open, Mai thinks that his voice is not high enough, so shouts at the car: "Open the door." There is still no reaction.
"An Ziyan, is there something wrong with the car? Why not answer?
"You should be more polite." An Ziyan tries to speak to him in a calm voice.
"Please open the door." Whatever Mai says, whether in standard Chinese or improper Chinese, English, native local language or something else. The door is not open. At this moment, he hears the laugh from An, then he realizes everything at once. He thinks of anything but one thing: his lover plays a trick on him. It is too late to know it.
He stands by the window and points to An: "Do you have a conscience? I bring dumplings for you. You are too naive to do this."
An shrug his shoulders, which means that why you are so foolish.
Mai Ding is too shy to do anything, climbs into the window: "An, I will fight with you until I die." He climbed to the room like a ghost, wants to flirt with An, then he thinks of one more serious problem, and face turns bright: " bro, how do you deal with your other car?" With a tricky face: why not send it to me.
"I am going to sell it and donate the money to hope primary schools."
"Please not, I am actually poor, rich water should be kept in own field, don't you think so? He is flirting with An with soft voice.
"Why are you so heartless? Why not think about our country and poor children. Chinese are shame on you."
An says to Mai with the words that Mai said to An just now
