The corners of Aiyin's mouth curled up slightly. As expected, time flies quickly when you are with everyone.

"Well, Xiao Ai, let's go back first. Let's go out and play in the snow tomorrow."

"Well, Sakki, be careful when you go back." Aine nodded in response.

"Don't worry." Xiangzi nodded. "We will pay attention."

After Xiangzi and the others left, Aiyin sat on the sofa, staring quietly at the gingerbread house they had made together, with the corners of her mouth raised all the time.

At this time, Aine's mother came over and sat next to her: "Aine, you are very happy today, right?"

“Yeah, I’m very happy.” Aine nodded.

"Just be happy." Aine's father sat down next to her and gently stroked her hair. "Today is Christmas Eve. Do you have any Christmas gifts you want?"

“Christmas presents…” Aine leaned into Aine’s father’s arms, “Let me think…I don’t think there’s anything I want.”

If I really want something, it would be a healthy body...

Thinking of this, Aine shook her head gently: "I just want everyone, including my parents, to stay with me, that's all."

"Is that so?" Aine's father held Aine in his arms, "Mom and Dad will stay with you, dear. It's getting late, go to bed early."

"Ah."

After saying goodbye to her parents, Aiyin returned to her room and lay on the bed. Outside, sparse snowflakes began to fall again.

“Well, one should have some ambition.” Aine closed her eyes. “I hope my Christmas present can come true.”

After covering herself with the quilt, Aine closed her eyes, and the scenes of today came to mind vividly.

Tomorrow is Christmas, I'm so looking forward to it.

Chapter 271 Christmas

When Aine opened her eyes again, she saw a pair of curious eyes staring at her. Aine was stunned for a moment and finally saw the person in front of her clearly.

"Mumu?"

"It's not just Mu." Xiangzi came closer to Aiyin and said, "Xiao Ai, what time is it? Why aren't you getting up yet?"

“Eh? What time is it?” Aine blinked hard a few times, adjusting to the light before her. She took the phone. “It’s already nine o’clock!?”

"As expected, Aine-chan's sleeping posture is still so unique." Su Shi walked to Aine's side, reached out and wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth with a tissue, and raised the corner of her mouth, "You are drooling, did you dream about something good?"

Aine smacked her lips and grinned, "I dreamed about Soyorin."

Su Shi blushed slightly: "Is that so? Then I'm very happy."

"Eh? What about me? What about me?" Xiangzi pouted and sat on the edge of Aine's bed. He reached out and grabbed Aine's hand and shook it gently.

Xiangzi's coquettish look was reflected in Aiyin's eyes, and she couldn't help but chuckle.

"Okay, I dreamed about Sakki too."

After Aiyin finished speaking, Xiangzi did not show any satisfaction. She pouted and said, "Xiaoai, you are just trying to please me. I don't care. I want to express my gratitude in other ways."

"Anything else?" Aine tilted her head. "What does Sakki want?"

"Kiss."

Xiangzi said this without hesitation, and for some reason, Aiyin smelled a hint of conspiracy in his words.

"Kiss? No." Aine shook her head, "I haven't brushed my teeth yet."

After saying that, Aine covered her mouth with a look of rejection.

"Eh? It's okay, Xiao Ai, I..."

Before Xiangzi could finish his words, there was a knock on the door, and Miao Meng's voice came from outside: "Xiangzi, haven't you woken up Aizi yet?"

"I've woken you up and will be out right away." Xiangzi replied with a dark face.

Seeing Xiangzi's expression, Aine couldn't help laughing out loud: "Pfft, Sakki, did you see that? Even Meow Mengqin couldn't let you succeed."

"Tsk." Xiangzi stood up, his face cold. "That song I've been conceiving needs to be put on the agenda."

"Mumu, stick with me." Aiyin hugged Mu and rubbed her face against Mu's.

"Eh?" Xiangzi looked at Aiyin in surprise, "I don't care, Xiaoai, even without a kiss, this is fine."

"OK then……"

The door opened and four people walked out of the attic.

As soon as she arrived in the living room, Aiyin was stunned. There were more than ten gift boxes piled on the sofa. "Are these gifts... for everyone?"

"Yes." Su Shi nodded, "Everyone prepared it carefully."

“How come you prepared it so well…” Aine turned her head away, pouting in dissatisfaction, “What I prepared for you… compared to this, it’s so different.”

Meow Meng leaned in front of Aine and said, "As long as it's prepared by Aiko, we will like it."

"Yeah, it's okay, Aine-chan." Deng agreed with Meowmeng's words.

“Is that so? I’m glad you don’t mind then.” Aine smiled again.

After dinner, everyone went outside.

At some point, the snowflakes that had been falling yesterday stopped again, and the streets, houses, and everywhere were covered with snowflakes.

Looking around, Aine thought of an amusement that wouldn't take much energy: "Everyone, do you want to build a snowman together?"

"Okay." Su Shi nodded in agreement. In fact, no matter what Aine said, she would not refuse.

Mu walked up to Aine and pulled out a pair of light green gloves from his pocket, "Aine-chan, gloves."

"Well, thank you Mumu." Before Ain opened her hand to take it, Mu put a glove in his pocket, then grabbed one of Ain's hands and put on the glove for her himself, and after putting on one glove, he put on the other.

After putting all the gloves on, Mu smiled slightly, "Alright, Aine-chan."

Aine nodded: "Yeah, Mumu, love."

"Yeah." Mu lowered his head, the curve of his lips lingering for a long time, Aine-chan...love.

Because of the lack of strength in her left hand, after making a snowball, Aiyin could only use her right hand to roll the snowball on the ground to accumulate snow. Her efficiency was very slow. By the time Li Xi had rolled a big snowball, her snowball was less than half the size of Li Xi's.

Seeing this, some evil thoughts popped up in Aine's mind, Sorry, Rikki.

Aiyin put the snowball that had rolled a few times aside, grabbed a handful of snow from the ground, made a snowball in her hand, and threw it at Riki.

Bang!

It hit Li Xi right on the back.

Feeling the blow on his back, Riki turned his head and saw only Aine behind him.

"What do you want to do, you guy?" Li Xi stood up and brushed off the remaining snow on his back with his backhand.

"Eh? What's wrong with me, Rikki?" Aine pretended to know nothing, "I'm rolling my snowball, look."

As she spoke, Aine pointed at the snowball at her feet, but Riki obviously wouldn't believe this explanation.

"Since you want to fight, I'll play with you." After saying that, Li Xi bent down, grabbed a handful of snow, made a snowball in his hand, and threw it towards Aine.

However, although it was thrown towards Aine, Li Xi naturally had an idea in his mind. The snowball fell to the ground, and the place where it landed was at least one meter away from Aine.

"Ah! Rikki, I was wrong." Seeing that Rikki really started to attack her, Aine turned and ran.

Li Xi stood quietly behind Aine. Although Aine said she was running, her speed was about the same as Li Xi's walking.

She sighed, and in order to prevent Aiyin from turning her head and feeling disappointed when she found that she was just standing there looking at her, Li Xi decided to symbolically chase after her.

Really, what sin did I commit to deserve to meet this guy?

The others who were still making snowmen stopped what they were doing after seeing the two of them playing around. Su Shi shouted to them, "Aine-chan, run slower. Be careful of the slippery ground."

"it is good."

After running for a minute or two, Aine stopped and waved to Rikki: "Sorry, Rikki, I was wrong. Don't chase me, I can't run anymore."

"Hmph, who told you to attack me?" Li Xi slowed down his pace and walked slowly to Aine's side. "Are you tired?"

"Fortunately."

"Sit over there and take a rest." Li Xi pointed to the bench next to him, which had been cleaned thoroughly.

"Ah."

Aine sat on the bench and rested for a few minutes, finally feeling much better.

Li Xi crossed his arms over his chest, speechless: "Really, you dare to cause trouble like this."

“Hmph, so what?” Aine turned her face away.

"You guy..." It's so infuriating.

Xiangzi's voice reached Aiyin: "Xiao Ai, my snowman is ready. Do you want to decorate it?"

"Okay." Aine sat up from the bench and walked over to Shoko's snowman. "Emmm... Oops, I don't have any decorations."

"Aine-chan, I have it." Mu's voice came from behind Aine.

“Really?” Aine turned her head in surprise.

"Yeah." Mu said, handing Aine a cucumber.

“?” Aine took the cucumber and switched her eyes between the cucumber and Mumu. “Why, Mumu, do you have a cucumber?”

Mu lowered his head: "I got it at home."

That’s not it, I’m asking why you carry cucumbers with you, Mumu!

Aine sighed weakly and weakly stuck the cucumber into the snowman's nose to act as a nose.

Aine's eye twitched, it was her first time seeing a cucumber snowman.

Chapter 272 New Year

“Thank you for the treat.” After finishing her meal, Su Shi put her hands together and thanked Aine’s mother with a smile, “Auntie’s cooking skills are really good.”

"Haha, as long as little Sushi likes it." Aiyin's mother looked at the New Year's Eve dinner happily as everyone finished it, feeling quite proud inside.

Isn’t it an irreplaceable recognition when everyone eats up the food you cook?

A few days have passed since Christmas, and it is now the last day of the year - New Year's Eve.

"Well, I don't know when Tomorin, Rikki and Ryuna-chan will come." Aine glanced at the others. Except for the three people she mentioned, everyone else was at her house.

"Is it really okay for Ruomai not to go home for the New Year?" Aiyin handed Miaomeng a tissue.

"Yeah, it's okay. It's okay to go back later." Miao Meng grinned, "Well, this is my first time spending the New Year with friends outside."

Hailing turned around and asked, "First time with friends? Have you ever spent New Year's Eve alone in Tokyo before?"

"Not really." Miao Meng shook her head. "Although I was working hard in Tokyo alone before, I would go back during the Chinese New Year."

At this point, Miao Meng glanced at everyone and said, "Well, after all, I have so many close friends in Tokyo now, so I want to experience a different New Year."

"I see." Hailing nodded, folding her arms across her chest and closing her eyes as she replied, "I'm almost there too."

Chu Hua saw Miao Meng's eyes fixed on her, so she began to explain, "I spent the New Year alone in Tokyo last year, but today I'm with you guys. I plan to go back to the island next year."

"Alas, my mother is still working overtime, and I'm the only one at home." Su Shi said this, and the corners of her calm mouth gradually rose. She turned her head to look at Aine, "Thank you, Aine-chan, for asking me to celebrate the New Year with you."

“Nothing.” Aine shook her head a little embarrassedly.

"Indeed, I haven't had such a happy New Year for a long time." Xiangzi felt a little emotional. The beautiful New Year in her memory was the time when her mother was still alive. Although it was not good to always indulge in the past, there was nothing she could do about it.

But now, it seems that I have even better memories.

As for Mu, celebrating the New Year at her own home was naturally not as warm as at Ain's home. After Ain invited her, Mu agreed without hesitation.

After the topic was over, Aine looked up at the clock and said, "Everyone, it's already past ten o'clock. Are we going to the first meeting later?"

Su Shi was still the first to agree: "Okay."

"First visit? Then we have to wait until after twelve o'clock?" Chuhua followed Aine's gaze and looked at the clock.

Aine shook her head. "The rules aren't that hard and fast. Let's go when Tomorin and the others arrive, right?"

"Sure." Xiangzi nodded.

“Then…” Aine glanced at everyone with her smart eyes, then glanced at her own clothes, “Do you want to change into a kimono? After all, it only happens once a year, so it’s better to have some sense of ceremony, right?”

Su Shi refused without thinking: "No."

"Eh?" Aine looked disappointed. She leaned in front of Suyo and asked in a deliberately cute way, "Soyorin, this is just once a year, is it really not okay?"
