    The winter in Yonkers was cold and piercing, with the dry and stiff leaves of the ne trees disying shades of orange and brown. Under the influence of the cool wind, they made audible and feeble noises as they rubbed against the bricks in the streets.


    The unexpected snowfall added a touch of color to the winter. The snowkes gently floated down onto the stone steps and vegetation like fine white fluff, forming a thinyer of snow.


    Upon hearing his words, there was a slight tremor in Lu Yang’s flickering ck eyes.


    Jiang Yanzhou gazed into her bright eyes for a moment before he spoke solemnly, “I think your name has another meaning.”


    Snow fell on his shoulders, which melted into water upon contact with his clothes, leaving small damp spots.


    Lu Yang’s gaze shifted, and she stared at his well-defined nose bridge for a few seconds. She then slightly turned her eyes to meet his gaze.


    Jiang Yanzhou’s tall figure stood in front of her, shielding her from the piercing cold wind. His face lowered slightly as he uttered, “Love you.”


    “We have always loved you, in in sight or not.”


    His tone was neither light nor heavy, but it carried an undeniable weight, like a warm current brushing against Lu Yang’s ears, causing her heart to uncontrobly skip a beat.


    In the hazy yet magnificent snowfall, Jiang Yanzhou held an umbre with distinct knuckles, not wearing a mask,pletely unconcerned about being recognized.


    He exudes a mature man’s calm demeanor, amiable yet authoritative.


    The umbre in his hand tilts towards her, his gaze fixed on her misty eyshes, as he gently says, “Don’t cry. I never intended to make you cry.”


    Upon hearing this, Lu Yang blinks her eyes, the mist in her eyshes dissipating. She raises her eyebrows and smiles, “Don’t worry, even if you cry, I won’t cry.”


    Jiang Yanzhou pinches her hand and says, “Okay.”


    The two of them start walking, arriving at the parking lot. He lets go of her hand, opens the car door, but before Lu Yang can get in, aughter is heard not far away:


    “Jiang Yanzhou! ”


    “Jiang Yanzhou, is that really you? How did you end up in Yonkers!?”


    Lu Yang looks towards the source of the voice, and sees a woman wearing a knitted skirt and walking in high heels approaching.


    She looks at Jiang Yanzhou with a puzzled expression, “Do you know this person?”


    Jiang Yanzhou’s gaze remains calm, like the vastness of the sea, without much fluctuation. He nods and says, ‘We only know each other, there is no other rtionship. You go inside first, it’s cold outside.”


    Lu Yang nced at the approaching woman and then at him. Without saying a word, she got into the car.


    The air conditioning inside the car was on, and it was warm, but Lu Yang felt stifled in her chest, as if there was a gas that wanted to escape.


    She finally understood where Jiang Yanzhou’s overwhelming jealousy came from.


    Her feelings towards him were so rational, yet she still felt displeased.


    Perhaps it was because he had just given her warmth and then poured cold water on her, causing her to feel angry at the sudden change in treatment.


    Lost in her thoughts, Lu Yang closed her eyes, leaned back in the seat, put on her headphones, and listened to the songs of Lu Mingyu.


    Jiang Yanzhou closed the passenger door, walked around the front of the car, and without opening the driver’s side door, Su Yiran stopped behind him and eximed, “I didn’t expect to run into you here.”


    Jiang Yanzhou turned around, nced at her lightly, his inherent manners bringing tranquility and calmness as he said, “Hmm, goodbye.”


    “Just met, why say goodbye?” Su Yiran said, “Long time no see, are you free?


    Let’s get together and have a drink.”


    “I quit drinking.”


    “Quit drinking? What are you quitting? Didn’t you only quit smoking?” Su Yiran was confused. “Lu Yang doesn’t mind you drinking. Oh, right, where’s Lu Yang? Did you win her back?”


    Jiang Yanzhou’s brows furrowed, his aura turning slightly colder, as he warned, “Go back to your Huai City and don’t ask about anything else.”


    “Huai City is clearly yours.”


    Su Yiran pouted, feeling timid in her heart, but still mustered up the courage to ask, “Is it because Lu Yang is in Yonkers, that’s why you’re here?”


    Jiang Yanzhou neither confirmed nor denied it.


    “A man who has been rejected by Lu Yang rejecting me, we still have a lot of fate. Maybe one day, I’ll run into Lu Yang.” Su Yiran raised her chin, threateningly saying, “I advise you to treat me better, otherwise, I’ll hide her and you won’t be able to find her!”


    Jiang Yanzhou didn’t waste any more time talking to her. While she was talking to herself, he opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat. Finally, he left her with two words, “Up to you.”


    Su Yiran watched the car drive away and stomped her foot in anger.


    “How annoying! ”


    After a while, she suddenly brightened up.


    The privileged son of a high-ranking official ran away for love and ended up in


    Yonkers.


    Lu Yang must be here!


    As Jiang Yanzhou got into the car, he noticed that Lu Yang had closed her eyes, quietly leaning against the back of the seat, breathing steadily, as if she were asleep..
