She laughed sweetly, her eyes squinting into beautiful crescents as she waved at me, saying, "This!"

As he spoke, he scooped up a snowball from the ground and threw it at me. I laughed out loud in delight and couldn't help but ask, "How did you get here?"

With a mysterious smile, she said, "Someone else has arrived." As she moved aside, a tall figure was seen standing not far behind her.

Walter.

Snowflakes were drifting down, and Walter, dressed in black, had a handsome and cool appearance. Looking at him through the scattering snowflakes, he seemed like a celestial being in a painting, very pleasing to the eye.

Walter walked towards me, a hint of helpless amusement in his eyes, "Your hair and clothes are covered in snow, you'll catch a cold."

When he spoke, he had already taken off his grey scarf from around his neck and wrapped it around me. The sudden warmth left me momentarily dazed.

I liked snow, I was in a good mood at that time, seeing him seemed to make it even better.

Looking up at the man who was taller than me, I laughed and said, "How come you all are here?"

Before Walter could speak, Olivia had already started, "Of course, I came to see the children. Auntie Eileen told me that you would be

Visiting the orphanage today. I ran into Walter this morning when I was leaving, so I invited him to come along. By the way, where is Alexander? I haven't seen him in a long time."

As she spoke, Olivia's beautiful eyes were already darting around, and I, suppressing a smile, pointed in the direction of the office.

Without saying much, Olivia simply said, "You guys play, I'll come replace you later."

Clearly, she was eager to see Alexander.

I had stood in the snow for a short while, and my hat was already covered with snowflakes. However, I didn't feel cold at all. Looking at Walter's hair turning white, I couldn't help but smirk, saying, "Your hair is full of snowflakes, you look like a little old man."

To be precise, he was like a handsome little old man.

He curled his lips, "You look like a tightly wrapped dumpling."

I was taken aback, I hummed at him as I looked up, a bit of mischief brewing in my heart. I watched him with a smirk and said, "Kneel down, I'll help you brush off the snow."

He rarely obeyed, his body, half a head taller than mine, slightly bent at the knees. He was tall, but luckily he was almost squatting on the ground, so I could just see his head.

She raised her hand to help him brush off the snowflakes that had fallen all over his head, and caught a glimpse of his loosely fastened collar. Suddenly, she stuffed the snowball she was holding into the back of his neck, and then, without waiting for his reaction, she ran off into the distance.

Sure enough, I hadn't taken more than a few steps when I heard Walter's voice, gritting his teeth, "Tabatha."

I turned back and gave him a provocative smile, then quickly picked up a snowball from the ground and threw it at him. He didn't dodge and took the hit, the handsome expression on his face was quite amusing.

Teased to the point of frustration, Walter stood up, shook off the snowballs on his body, picked up a snowball from the ground and threw it at me. Knowing he wouldn't let me off so easily, I dodged and attacked at the same time.

We were attacking each other back and forth. I saw him roll a big snowball and throw it at me. I dodged nimbly, didn't feel the pain of being hit, but I did hear a woman's delicate scream, "Ah!" out of the blue. Clearly, this voice was not mine.

I looked back and saw Marjorie. She had been not far behind me. When Walter threw a snowball at me, I dodged it, but she didn't, so it hit her right in the cheek. Hearing her voice, Walter also reined in his laughter, looking over at

1.

Seeing Marjorie frozen in place, I quickly approached and asked, "Are you okay? You weren't hit, were you?"

She shook her head, her gaze warm and kind, "It's okay, it's okay."

After speaking, she lifted her gaze towards me, then it fell on Walter who was approaching. With a gentle expression, she asked, "I didn't disturb you two, did I?"

I shook my head, feeling somewhat tired from all the fun. Looking at her, I said, "No, I'm just tired from playing. It's good that you're okay. Where did you go just now?"

She lifted the camera in her hand and laughed, "I was wandering

around the welfare home, wanting to shoot some footage to write a report and send it out, to help improve the environment for the children here, to give them a better learning and living environment." I nodded, unable to help but admire her kindness, "You are so thoughtful, I was just too busy having fun."

She gave a slight smile, her gaze shifting to Walter, and hesitated, "This is..."

Walter's demeanor towards strangers had returned to its usual cold indifference.

I began to introduce, saying, "I... friend, Walter."

Walter squinted his dark eyes at me, clearly his expression was asking, just friends?
