a/n: does qing qiu experience the four seasons? i forget 🙊 let's just pretend that there is four seasons HAHHA
i was watching a show and the aesthetic looked so good with snow so i thought of making a oneshot for this !

donghua x fengjiu (WOOHOO)
_________________

the seasons come and go.

but as feng jiu stands outside the fox den, looking in awe at the blanket of white that has fallen upon her home, feng jiu feels like it's the first snow she's experiencing.

she's never felt more at home.

maybe because this may not be the place she wakes up to in the near future.

instead, she'll wake up to a huge, luxurious palace in the Nine Heavens, to the bookshelf that is the most precious possession of her husband-to-be.

she won't wake up to Mi Gu calling her for lunch, and she won't be there to experience her father's rage when she sneaks off to the Nine Heavens.

and she thinks that maybe she'll miss all of that.

but all the nostalgia is forgotten when she hears footsteps in the snow.

she sees donghua dijun crossing the snowy path, towards her, his hair the colour of the falling snow.

her husband-to-be smiles softly as he crosses the snowy ground, coming towards her.

feng jiu smiles at her husband's slightly awkward manner, because she knows it's only the second time he's ever visited qing qiu, and it was for a sole purpose: to ask for her hand in marriage. and she thinks that she loves him even more for coming to qing qiu for her.

he reaches her, and feng jiu puts out her hands to hold his.

"how did it go?" she asks.

"it went well." murmurs dijun. he's always been like this, speaking softly even when it's the two of them, but he never fails to exert his dominance, be it in ruling or talking to someone.

feng jiu laughs silently because that's why she doesn't get bullied too much in the Nine Heavens.

dijun folds her into his embrace, chin resting on her head because he's so tall.

"your father may approve of me." dijun says after a while.

feng jiu knows it's his way of saying that her father does approve of them.

and it's the best thing she's ever heard.
