”It’s cloudy again...”

Lying against the window, Snowy looked outside.

When she got up in the morning, she noticed that clouds in the sky had been gradually accumulating. At this time, a large piece of cloud, lead in color, had covered the entire sky. Without opening the window, she could tell it was cold outside.

Perhaps it was a coincidence, but the weather was bad before Zhang Zian went abroad. It was cloudy, snowy, and windy. As soon as he went abroad, the weather turned nice immediately, and for several days, Binhai City was sunny. And then the weather worsened again since she had received the message of his return.

Snowy smiled. It seemed that even the sky despised him…

She sat back in front of the computer, typing quickly to reply to the comments left by netizens on her Weibo and WeChat public accounts, and then posted a brief new post: ”Live broadcast notice: The broadcast in the dog market that everyone has been waiting for will shoot today, please check in to my channel on time! But the weather conditions are bad today, so if it snows suddenly, the schedule might change. Please see the update in Snowy’s Weibo should there be any changes!”

Closing the computer, she put on thick clothes. For those who were brand-sensitive, they could recognize that all the clothes on her body were from international luxury brands, but the styles were relatively simple and low-profiled. These were all new collections bought by her mother when traveling abroad. As for those one-piece dresses and evening dresses, they she had locked them all in her closet.

She picked up her Persian cat, Snowball, from her bed and fondly rubbed its forehead with hers, ”Snowball, take care and wait for me to come back. Ouch, you are so heavy!”

Snowball softly purred in her arms a few times.

Putting Snowball back on the bed, she picked up her phone and selfie stick, and left her bedroom briskly. But when she reached the stairs, her heart sank. Holding the stair handrail, she was hesitant.

Damn! She forgot today was Sunday. No matter how busy her father was usually, he would try to stay at home on Sunday.

Jiang Tianda was sitting on a couch and carefully reading a newspaper. He liked reading the important national and local government newspapers and periodicals such as People's Daily, Reference News, and Binhai Daily. Although Snowy didn’t think these newspapers were interesting at all, according to her father, these newspapers often subtly revealed some clues of the reform by the delicate changes in tone or wording. Whoever could notice these nuances in advance could stand on the forefront of the next era.

Snowy was not interested in what newspaper he was reading. She just wanted to sneak out.

Unfortunately, her father seemed particularly vigilant today. She had stepped on just one stair before he put down the newspaper, glanced at her clothes and his face became gloomy.

”Are you going to host a live broadcast again?” he asked sullenly.

Bad luck! Why am I so unlucky today! I tried to be quiet, how come he heard me?! said Snowy in her heart.

Her mother, who was baking tarts, had heard the sound and stuck her head out from the kitchen and said unhappily, ”The weather is bad today. Don’t go out!”

”I’m fine. I will come back if it snows.” Snowy said sheepishly to her mother. As for her father… well, she just considered his silence to be acquiescence.
