In the capital city, on a stormy night.
Shi Wangyue stood by the window, staring blankly at the gray rain and mist outside, along with the blurred neon lights.
Suddenly, he heard the somewhat impatient ringing of the doorbell.
He turned expressionlessly, walked to the door, and peeked through the peephole.
Then, he quickly opened the door.
Outside, Ning Youguang stood, wrapped entirely in a thick beige down jacket, with steam rising from her body.
"Happy New Year."
She looked at him with smiling eyes.
At this moment, only her eyes were visible beneath her attire.
Shi Wangyue looked at her rain-soaked down jacket and the silver-gray suitcase at her feet, also wet from the rain, and his throat tightened instantly, "You came back without telling me."
He reached out to hug her, but Ning Youguang stepped back to avoid him.
"No, I'm all wet."
