On Christmas Day, my boyfriend sent a voice message:

【I have to work overtime today, so I don't have time to go out for a fancy dinner. I ordered takeout for you, please enjoy it.】

He then attached a screenshot.

I opened it.

He actually ordered 34 cups of McFlurry.

The outdoor temperature was only three degrees, and snow was falling outside the window.

Just looking at the screenshot of the ice cream, my fingers felt a bit stiff.

At the end, the total amount in Chinese yuan was exactly 521 yuan.

Sun Ran always claimed he loved celebrating holidays and never missed preparing surprises for me on any special occasion.

I understood his intention, but I quickly sent him a message:

【This is too much, I can't finish it all, let's cancel it.】

Sun Ran quickly replied:

【It's okay, you can put the leftovers in the fridge, they won't go bad in this weather.】

Ice cream won't go bad.

But after finishing thirty-four servings of ice cream, I might go bad.

I replied to him:

【I appreciate the gesture, but it's not hygienic to keep so much ice cream in the fridge, let's cancel it.】

After sending this message, it kept showing "typing..." on the other side.

I started to feel anxious.

McDonald's always had fast service.

I was afraid that if he insisted on not canceling, it would delay the refund.

Fortunately, after a while, he replied with a somewhat regretful tone:

【Alright, I'll cancel it this time. Next time, when I'm not working overtime, I'll take you out for a nice dinner.】

Seeing the screenshot of the successful refund he sent, I breathed a sigh of relief.
