Jiang Mu was suddenly stunned.
"how is it going?"
Ella was as happy as Santa Claus and said, "I heard from Li Hua that you have been looking for this novel for a long time and couldn't find it in any bookstore. It just so happened that I knew some bookstore owners and I spent three or four days looking for it..."
Jiang Mu silently showed the gift box to Ella.
Ella was also stunned.
"Empty?" she murmured.
"empty."
"Why is it empty?"
“…I don’t think I can answer this question.”
Jiang Mu said sincerely.
Three seconds of silence.
"It's over!"
The Santa girl cried, "I remember now. I was so busy practicing tying bows that I forgot to put the book in! I, I, I... I'll run back and get it now!"
Ella was just wearing a Christmas costume, not the real Santa Claus. She had no reindeer or sleigh, so she could only run back on her legs.
Judging from her look, she won't let it go unless you deliver the book to her today.
Fortunately, Jiang Mu is always good at persuading people.
"If you go down now, you'll just run into the couple downstairs who are making out." He said with a smile, "Are you sure?"
Ella stopped silently.
With his back to Jiang Mu.
Standing in silence.
Jiang Mu didn't say anything to spoil the fun like "Actually, it's okay if there's no gift."
He thought for a moment and then spoke.
“Gifts don’t have to be books.”
She smiled and said, “Actually, I have already received it, whether it is such a beautiful Christmas dress, or the scenes on the street that I can’t see yet, or the bow that is tied really neatly and beautifully.
...But I guess you won’t agree with this.
So, could you please come closer?"
Ella turned silently.
She blinked suddenly, and her eyelashes fluttered.
In the field of vision, the young man got a very realistic Christmas hat from somewhere and put it on his head.
Combined with the hospital gown, it looks particularly funny.
It feels like a cat and mouse in a horror movie.
Ella burst out laughing.
"…Are you Santa Claus?"
"Yes." Jiang Mu spread his hands, "You can be a Christmas girl, why can't I be Santa Claus?"
"Where did you get that hat?"
"It's a gift for watching a movie." Jiang Mu said, "But it's not important. Come on, come closer."
Ella did as she was told, puzzled.
"Come closer."
He became more and more confused and leaned closer to the young man.
"so?"
"almost."
Jiang Mu suddenly raised his smartphone, which had already opened the camera interface.
"A book is nothing more than a record of certain things."
The young man smiled somewhat evilly.
"——So, the same goes for photos."
Click.
Time seems to freeze at this moment.
Time really stood still at this moment.
People always miss the past and look into the distance on the ship of time. At that time, the sky was still blue, the years passed slowly, and smartphones had just been released. There were no strange special effects, nor beauty filters that could distinguish between humans and ghosts.
The camera will faithfully record everything, including a beautiful but confused girl in Christmas clothes and a boy in ugly hospital gown with a mischievous smile.
The two Christmas hats put together look like thousands of boys and girls taking selfies with their backs to the Christmas tree on the street.
But there are things that the camera cannot record.
For example, the snow covering the ground outside the window, the newlyweds downstairs who have just successfully confessed their love, the gifts that are highly anticipated to be opened but turned out to be empty, and the crystal road under the snow that extends to the night sky.
In the snow, some people hug, some kiss, and some fall in love.
The camera can't record these things.
So what remembers these is the hand that pressed the camera button. I don’t know how long in the future, but whenever I see the photos, I will definitely think of the people in these photos.
Time cannot be reversed, this is an eternal truth.
But people always remember some things, and use their deep memories to give themselves the illusion of wandering in the past.
People call it "looking for the sword on the boat".
"Delete it! It makes me look so ugly! Delete it now!"
"No."
"Reshoot, can't we just reshoot? Why didn't you tell me earlier!"
“That’s more realistic.”
"Quick! Delete! It!"
“Haha, I won’t delete it!”

NO.10 Little Lover Ella & Hundred Mothers Orphans [6k monthly ticket request]
Ella has gone back.
There was a girl's scent in the air.
Winter plum blossoms, fireworks, faint oil smoke, and the heat of lips and tongues during laughter and playfulness.
Jiang Mu opened his phone again and looked at the photo for a long time.
It lasted so long that the snow outside the window became heavier, like thick goose down.
The knocks made monotonous sounds on the rusty railings.
Jiang Mu suddenly felt a little cold.
He tightened his clothes and realized that the air conditioner had been turned off at some point. It was probably because he accidentally touched the remote control while playing around.
It was really strange. It was snowing so heavily outside and the room would be as cold as a kiln if the air conditioner was turned off for a while. Yet he only felt the cold now.
It seems that Ella is the kind of girl with a high body temperature, Jiang Mu thought.
He glanced at his phone and saw that Her Royal Highness the Princess had not yet replied to his "Merry Christmas".
Probably asleep.
That’s right, in weather like this, there is nothing happier than snuggling in a warm quilt.
Of course, it is not ruled out that the Princess of Xuanyuan clan set an example, but foreign festivals...
Mr. Jiang from Shennong clan confessed his surname for a few seconds.
He lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling for a few seconds, then stretched out his index finger and drew a line.
The white fog is everywhere.
"You look like a middle-aged man who just met his mistress."
The announcer said.
"You look like a middle-aged man who is enjoying a second spring."
Jiang Mu also said.
The announcer smiled and did not refute.
"Want a drink?"
He raised a glass, "On a cold day like this, you need to drink strong liquor that can be ignited directly and warm up the body."
"That's right." Jiang Mu nodded approvingly, "Give me a bottle of beer."
Announcer: “…”
He thought this man was a real killjoy.
"It's on the shelf, get it yourself."
"Can't you take care of the patient?"
Jiang Mu complained, stood up, picked up a bottle from the shelf at random, and walked back.
"Let's have a movie."
"what type?"
"It's related to Ella."
"……Um?"
The announcer was stunned for about two seconds.
"Um--"
Then, he smiled with understanding.
"I see... You feel empty, lonely, right? If I'm not here, you should just watch some daily videos, right?"
Jiang Mu squinted at the announcer: "You deserve a kick, don't you?"
"OK, OK, you are the audience, you have the final say."
The announcer said this in a rather annoying tone and flipped through the tape for a while.
"I found it... This movie does have the girl you wanted to see, but the theme might be a little different from what you expected. Want to give it a try?"
"what type?"
"A large-scale search for relatives."
Jiang Mu: “?”
"Haha, you'll know after you watch it." The announcer smiled, "The name... 'One Hundred Orphans'."
The screen lights up.
