The cat, who had been curled up in the corner, quickly rushed over to Kevin, who was squatting in front of the fireplace: "Ah, no, no, no!"
She stuffed the fireplace with it...
Kevin held the cat's head with one hand with an indifferent look on his face, while Kosmo stepped forward and carried away Paddo who was hiding in the doll costume. Paddo shouted in panic while being carried away: "Don't open it, don't open it!"
As soon as Kevin opened the fireplace, a bunch of things fell out and pushed him to the ground, raising a lot of smoke and dust. Among them, a pink skirt fluttered and fell on the top.
"What...are these things..." Kosmo let go of Paduo, walked to the fireplace, looked at the pile of fallen things and said with some confusion.
"Hey, how come the little skirt I gave you is here?" Alicia picked up the pink skirt and shook it, then looked at Mebius and said, "Professor Mebius?"
Mebius, who had wrapped himself in a sleeping bag, turned his back: "How should I know?"
Ying, who was using her phone to illuminate herself, was attracted by a magazine. She walked over, squatted down and picked it up. "Photo album? A collection of fashionable jeans. The featured model is... Qianjie?!"
The others who were attracted by Ying's movements all looked at the contents of the book. Aponya took a look and then looked at Qianjie and said, "Are you...working part-time?"
Qianjie immediately sat up from the sofa, his eyes glowing red: "Don't look at it! Are you looking for death?"
Ai Lishiya, who was watching the fun, called out to the others and said, "Everyone, come and take a look. It's Qianjie's photo album~"
"Hey!"
Hua was attracted by a beautifully packaged notebook in the corner. There were many silver patterns with unknown meanings on the notebook. She walked forward, picked up the notebook, and looked at Kosmo: "Kosmo, is this your notebook?"
Seeing a notebook of this style, Hua's first reaction was that it was a Kosmo notebook.
Kosmo looked over and was stunned: "This is... the limited edition commemorative notebook that I didn't get before? This is not mine..."
(Strange, I’ve never seen anyone else in the Golden Courtyard interested in these things, but this limited edition commemorative notebook is definitely not mine. Kevin, Qianjie, Su, and Feng don’t seem to be the ones interested in these things. Whose is it? I must ask him/her about it later!)
Others also looked over and said that it was not their notebook.
So Hua opened the notebook and read a few pages, then said: "This seems to be Feng's diary..."
Did Feng like this style of notebook? She had always thought that Feng was an ordinary office worker like Kevin and Ying. No, Kevin would occasionally play basketball with Su when he had time, so it was normal for Feng to have some personal hobbies... But she didn't expect that he was the same type as Kosmo.
"Feng's diary?!" Alicia was the first to react and moved closer to Hua, "I want to see it, I want to see it! Let me see it~"
Hua held up the diary in his hand to prevent Alicia from taking it and said, "After all, a diary is someone else's privacy. It's not okay to read it without permission, right?"
Alicia tried to reach out and take the diary while saying, "Just take a look at what Feng is thinking about. Usually he comes and goes without a trace. When I want to find him, he is basically on a business trip... Hua, I'll just read a few pages, okay~"
"That's got to wait until Feng comes back."
While the others were either playing around or distracted by other things, Kevin walked to the fireplace, squatted down, stuck his head into the fireplace and looked up, and found that there were a lot of things on it. He stepped out of the fireplace and looked around to try to find if there was anything useful. Suddenly, a model sword of the Heavenly Fire Judgement next to the instant noodles caught his attention. Kevin reached out and took the Heavenly Fire Judgement, then poked the fireplace a few times.
Then a pile of books fell down along with the smoke and dust.
Su picked up a book that fell at his feet. After looking at the title and illustrations on the cover of "The New Transfer Student is Dangerous", he suddenly opened his squinted eyes: "These characters... look a little familiar..."
Grayxiu, who had been sitting on the sofa and shivering, froze. Before she could react, others were attracted by the noise.
"Let me see..." Kosmo came over and took a few glances at the contents of the comic, his face full of black lines.
Alicia, who seemed to have temporarily given up on getting someone's diary from Hua, also came over. After taking a few glances at the contents, her expression became somewhat teasing: "Oh~"
Seeing that more and more people seemed to be coming over to read the comics, Gray Xiu's face turned red, and it seemed that smoke was coming out of her head. She waved her hands in a somewhat chaotic manner and said, "Um...everyone, no, don't read it anymore!"
But everyone seemed to have no intention of stopping reading. Grace quickly ran over and tried to snatch the comic from Su's hand, but Su reacted faster. He subconsciously dodged to the side, and Grace missed and fell into a pile of comics. The vibration caused the other books in the fireplace to fall down, burying Grace inside. Along with the books, the snow also fell down.
Gresh poked her head out from the pile of books and looked at the others as if she was sulking.
"I always feel like it's colder than before." Hua said, without noticing Alicia quietly moving behind her.
"Yeah." Sakura nodded.
Grayxiu puffed up her cheeks, and suddenly, as if she had thought of something, a light bulb seemed to pop up in her head.
A few minutes later.
There was a warm flame on the burning book. It seemed that Grayshut thought the fire was not big enough, so she threw another book into it and showed a relieved expression.
Paddo reached out from her cat doll costume and moved closer to the fireplace: "Phew...it's so warm..."
"I didn't expect that after so long, this fireplace can still be used." Aponya seemed a little emotional.
Hua felt the gradually rising temperature in the room, and then suddenly found that Feng's diary in her hand was gone! She immediately looked at Alicia, only to see Alicia sitting on the sofa with a well-behaved look, with nothing in her hands, so the honest child turned her puzzled eyes to other people.
"Did I not pay attention and accidentally lost it? That won't do. After all, it's Feng's diary... But the living room is too dark now. It seems I can only wait until tomorrow morning to look for it." Hua thought to himself.
After Gretchen had been roasting the fire for a while, she looked at Pado beside her without having dinner. The air seemed to be filled with a fragrance. Unconsciously, Pado, who was curled up in a doll costume, became a can in her eyes. Pado was still saying, "I'm so hungry. It would be great if the fireplace could roast steak or sweet potatoes or something."
At this time, Grace, who was so hungry that she had hallucinations, started to bite Pado's leg without hesitation!
"Wow!" Padu cried out in pain, "You can't eat this! Everyone, think of a solution!"
Alicia looked towards the fireplace, sniffed gently, and said, "I seem to smell food."
Mebius, wrapped in a sleeping bag, was holding a test tube like a penguin, drinking the reagent in it as usual. Seeing this, he did not forget to ridicule Alicia: "Oh, are you hallucinating because of hunger?"
Although she seemed to smell it, she would never miss any opportunity to mock Alicia!
Padu, who finally let Grayxiu loosen up, also smelled it and said, "Wait...it really smells like braised beef!"
Everyone followed the smell and looked towards the fireplace. Kevin, who had been fiddling with something in front of the fireplace, turned around and said, "I cooked some instant noodles. Do you want some?"
A group of people immediately gathered around Kevin, and under Abonya's command, they held empty instant noodle bowls and waited for Kevin to scoop out instant noodles from the big pot.
Although a certain Master Qian who seemed to want to stick his face into the magazine would rather starve than come to eat, he probably didn't want to give anyone the chance to take the magazine from his hand.
At this time, outside the Golden Courtyard.
The two men rode their snowmobiles across the snow and soon arrived outside the Golden Courtyard.
When they reached the door, they took off their helmets. It was Eden, whose flight was delayed, and Feng, whose business trip was extended.
Eden looked at the dark villa, and helplessly looked at Feng who had just parked the snowmobile and was still taking things down from it, and said, "The lights in the Golden Courtyard are all off. Everyone should have gone to bed. It seems that we are still late."
Feng picked up her things, and looked at the Golden Courtyard: "George, I must be very disappointed..."
Eden looked at Feng, who seemed to have no expression, and then looked at his watch. This time... considering Ellie's personality, she shouldn't go to bed so early? But why were all the lights in the Golden Courtyard turned off?
The two men walked to the door, opened it, and saw the guests eating noodles around the fireplace.
maple:"……"
Kevin has already led all the residents of the Golden Courtyard to eat noodles, even Alicia is not spared... Hmm? What is Alicia holding in her hand?
At this time, the guests also noticed the two people standing at the door, and they couldn't help but pay attention. When Eden opened the door and the cold wind blew in, who couldn't help but notice?
Alicia, who was about to take a look at someone's diary while no one was paying attention, said: "..."
This... How did Feng come back with Yidian? And he seemed to have noticed the thing in his hand... How should I explain this to him?
Feng didn't seem to see clearly what Alicia was holding in her hand. He just closed the door silently, and Eden walked to Alicia to find out what was going on.
While explaining the current situation to Eden, Alicia quietly stuffed someone's diary back under the sofa.
"I see. Fortunately, Padu stocked up so many instant noodles." Eden said as she looked at the bowl of instant noodles that Alicia brought to her.
"But why would Feng come back? Wasn't his business trip extended?" Alicia asked puzzledly.
Feng, who was holding a bowl of instant noodles in front of the fireplace and waiting for Kevin to serve the noodles, turned around and said, "It was Eden who came directly to the hotel where I was staying and dragged me back."
To put it simply, the place where he was on a business trip happened to be the same place as Eden, and then Eden went to find Feng as soon as he finished the video call with Alicia. Although there was a lot of snow on the road in between, there was nothing that Eden couldn't do with money. If there was, it was definitely not enough money.
In short, with the "help" of Eden's money power, Feng was dragged away by Eden and successfully returned to the Golden Courtyard before he could finish his meal. He didn't even have time to take his luggage, so he only had time to pack some food. When he was on the plane, Lilith said that she would bring it back for him later...
"Wow, you are worthy of being my good Eden~" Alicia hugged Eden happily, "Now everyone in the Golden Courtyard is here!"
Eden and Feng's expressions both looked a little unnatural at this moment.
"Eh? Eden, what's wrong?" Alicia asked puzzledly.
"Nothing, I just remembered something else." Eden found an excuse to cover it up.
In fact, it was on the return flight that Feng told Eden about his desire to cancel the lease, and Eden told him to think about it again.
"Although you don't spend much time with everyone, everyone actually likes you, especially Ellie." Eden said at the time, "If you choose to leave, Ellie will be very disappointed, right?"
"She is very enthusiastic towards everyone. It is true that parting will make her feel a little uncomfortable." Feng replied, "I did this because of some work considerations... But since you said so, let's see when the time comes."
Eden sighed inwardly. She was sorry, Ellie. She had really tried her best. How low was Feng's EQ? She was about to tell Ellie about her feelings for Feng, but this block of wood didn't react at all. She didn't react at all!
No wonder Lilith hasn't been able to take him down for so many years. I really don't know whether to say it's lucky or unfortunate...
Feng put his instant noodles aside, took out the food he had packed from the bag he brought back and said, "However, it's a bit monotonous to only eat instant noodles for the New Year's Eve dinner. I brought some food back. Let's eat together. I left in a hurry and didn't have time to pack too much."
"Wow! Brother Yufeng, I admire you so much!" Paduo looked at Feng with shining eyes as he put some food into the pot to heat it up.
"What's there to admire?" Feng smiled and said, "Thanks to you, at least everyone didn't go hungry before Eden and I came back."
"Oh, I'm not that great." Padu said as he looked at the food in the pot, "I also got it from Boss Kevin."
maple:"……"
Forget it, he was not surprised. He didn't know how many things had been taken away by Paduo. He didn't even know if the diary was taken by Paduo. But since there were not many important things written on it, he didn't care.
It was impossible for him to write down his inner thoughts in his diary, especially when he knew there was a cat in the villa that liked to steal things!
However, speaking of that diary, why did he feel that the notebook that Alicia was holding before looked a little familiar, as if it was the diary that he had lost...
"From me? When?" Kevin was stunned.
"It was when you, Kevin, first moved to Golden Court." Paddy said as she took vegetables out of the pot.
"That time..." Kevin thought, "Well, it's been a long time."
"Yeah, so much time has passed without me noticing, and everything seems like it happened just yesterday." Alicia said with some emotion.
Just when everyone was feeling a little emotional, Feng paused with his hand holding the instant noodles. He asked a crucial question: "I remember... Kevin came here a month earlier than me. Is the instant noodles from that time... still edible now?"
Everyone stopped eating noodles.
Feng glanced at Kevin's expression, sighed, took the instant noodles bowl from Grace's hand, and scooped a lot of vegetables from the pot for her: "You should...eat less, Grace, don't eat the instant noodles for now."
After finishing "dinner", it was already late, but because the power supply in the villa was cut off and the weather was unusually cold, everyone finally decided to take the quilts from upstairs and spend the night leaning against the fireplace.
"And this way, we can all spend the New Year together!" said Alicia.
When everyone fell asleep, in the silent night, only the fire in the fireplace was burning slowly.
Suddenly, a snowflake came from nowhere and fell on Kevin's face. Kevin woke up from his sleep and found that the fire in the fireplace had gone out. Feng was beside the fireplace, adding new fuel to it and re-lit the fire.
"Did your business trip go well?" Kevin walked to Feng's side and sat down cross-legged.
"It's okay. With Lilith here, what accidents can happen?" Feng said while looking at the flames in the fireplace.
Both of them were silent for a while, and Feng spoke again: "Kevin, I'm ready to... leave the Golden Courtyard."
"Leave here?" Kevin was stunned. "Why?"
"It's due to work reasons, although there are also some personal factors involved..." Feng stared at the flames in the fireplace from beginning to end, "In fact, I always feel that I don't seem to belong here. I always feel that I am a little out of tune with you. In addition, Nahaima has been inviting me to live in his villa, so..."
"I won't interfere with your choice." Kevin added a book to the fireplace. "But I must tell you that since you entered the Golden Courtyard, you have always been a part of the Golden Courtyard. There is no such thing as belonging here or not, and there is no such thing as being out of place. Everyone... welcomes you."
Alicia, who was leaning against Eden's legs, opened her eyes at some point and listened quietly to the two people talking.
"You are all really interesting." Feng said with a smile. Suddenly, he saw Kosmo, who was sleeping on the sofa, fell to the ground with the blanket on his body falling off. He stood up, walked to Kosmo and covered him with the blanket.
He returned to the fireplace and said, "That's pretty much what Eden told me at the time... Well, I'll take a look at it later."
"Yeah." Kevin nodded and said nothing more.
When everything fell silent again, Paddo, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly opened her eyes and sat up with a "wow", which woke everyone up and they all looked over.
"It's so noisy." Qianjie sat up and said as if a magazine was stuck on his face, then lay down and continued to sleep.
"What's wrong?" Hua asked.
"The power has been restored?" Weiwei said as if she was still sleepy.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." Paddy apologized immediately.
Alicia asked: "Phyllis, are you okay?"
"I, I just had a dream..." Paduo said with some lingering fear.
Su comforted him, "Don't worry, talk slowly."
Padu pursed her lips and then said, "In the dream, everyone disappeared, there were monsters everywhere, the moon was very round, and I ran for a long, long time holding a small box, but in the blink of an eye, you all disappeared, and only I was left..."
Feng was stunned when he heard this. He seemed to have had a similar dream before...
