Chapter 178
One can’t keep living in the past.
Ling Yuan’s side didn’t say anything because, she didn’t know how to say it, did she even purposely send him a message saying I’m celebrating my birthday today, wish me a happy birthday right?
How do you look at it, it feels like she’s asking him for a present.
Weird.
When it came to the issue of sense of ceremony, Jiang Xi was the most vocal, her mom and dad were typical people with a full sense of ceremony.
His dad could remember every holiday, any anniversary of their love and acquaintance, and then create surprises for her mom.
But then, his dad couldn’t actually remember her birthday and had to be reminded by her mom for years.
She was also drunk.
She seriously suspected that her dad only wanted to spend time with her mom as a couple and she was the extra.
Even if there is no cake, the candles still need to be blown out, Yan Qimai ran to the next dormitory and borrowed a candle and lighter, then inserted the small candle on top of the apple pie.
Yan Qimai lit the candles, Wei Zi turned off the lights, and Jiang Xi Genus led the singing of the birthday song.
“Fisherman, come make a wish.”
Ji Yu looked at her little sisters’ smiling faces, put her palms together and closed her eyes.
She made three wishes, one was that her father could continue to look at her from heaven, the second was to bless her grandfather with good health, and the third was to wish that she and Ling Yuan could be together for a long time.
After blowing out the candles, one person took a small bite of apple pie and shared it.
The four of them were hilariously eating snacks in the dormitory when Ji Yu’s cell phone, which she had placed on her bed, rang.
Yan Qimai touches her, “Quickly see if it’s Ninth Brother looking for you, go ask him for a gift.”
Ji Yu arched her eyebrows, took the cell phone and scratched the screen, it was really him.
It’s better to get first place in the exam than to fall in love: [Baby, still in the classroom?
Talking about love with the first place: [In the dormitory.]
The first place in the exam is not as good as falling in love: [Then come downstairs in five minutes].
Ji Yu stood up, startled everyone, Wei Zi was the first to react, “Hey, isn’t it Ninth Brother? Ninth Brother knows it’s your birthday?”
Ji Yu shakes her head, “It’s him, I don’t know if he knows, he told me to come downstairs.”
Wei Zi immediately makes room for her to come out, “Go go go, if he doesn’t know, you must tell him later ah, don’t keep everything inside.”
Ji Yu is speechless, “The question you guys should be focusing on right now, shouldn’t it be how he got in?”
Wei Zi and Jiang Xi Zhi looked at each other and laughed, Jiang Xi Zhi said, “What else can there be, it must be to climb over the wall to come in, the wall of the ruined auditorium is about to be stepped on by them smooth.”
Ji Yu: “Hee hee knows, why does Xiao Xiao also know? How long have you been here? You guys still went over it, huh?”
Wei Zi raises an eyebrow, “That’s for sure, a high school that hasn’t gone over the wall, life is incomplete, just not long ago, had the honor of going over it once.”
Ji Yu: “……”
Dare I say you guys are quite proud of it.
Ji Yu took his cell phone and ran downstairs, Ling Yuan was already standing in front of the gate.
Under the orange streetlight, the teenager’s eyes are bright, dressed in white clothes and black pants, one hand in his pocket, one hand carrying a large box, handsome as a strong bamboo.
“Senior, why are you here?”
Regardless, today was her birthday, and she was still very jubilant to see him.
“Let’s go, take you to a place.”
“Where to?”
Ji Yu arched her eyebrows and obediently walked with him.
Seeing the well-behaved look, Ling Yuan’s heart softens beyond words, “Not afraid that I’ll abduct you either?”
“Not afraid. Senior can’t afford to give up.”
She smiled sweetly, with a look of eating him up.
“Uh-huh! Can’t afford to give up.” Ling Yuan’s gaze fell on the side of her face, the corners of his mouth rising.
On the other side of the school operation, the place is remote, Ling Yuan pulls Ji Yu to sit down in front of a stone table, placing the bag in his hand on the counter and opening it to reveal a swan-shaped cake.
Ji Yu froze and asked in surprise, “Senior, how did you know that today is my birthday?”
Ling Yuan lowers his eyes and unwraps the cake box, “If you have the heart, you will naturally know.”
In fact, ever since he visited Grandpa Chi in the New Year, Ling Yuan would call him every once in a while to chat with him, or perhaps tell him about Chi Yu’s situation on the school side.
Last week, he called and Grandpa Chi told him that it would be Chi Fu’s birthday in a few days.
Grandpa Chi said, “Xiao Yu, that child, because of her father’s business, refused to celebrate her birthday, last year, I persuaded her to eat a lotus egg. This year, I’m not with her, although her mom is there, but her mom has a lot of things to do, so it’s inevitable that she won’t be able to remember. Ling Yuan ah, grandpa please, if you have time, for grandpa to celebrate her birthday. She doesn’t say it on her lips, but in her heart, she still longs for someone to spend it with her.”
Ling Yuan’s heart ached after hearing Grandpa Chi’s words, his girl, shouldn’t have been so aggrieved.
Since the day he knew about her birthday, he had started preparing a birthday gift.
He also wanted to give her a birthday party, but her birthday day she is still in class, may not be able to come out, and, she is not that love to get together character, finally thought about it, or alone to her birthday well.
Ji Yu also really like this simple birthday, low-key, but cozy.
Ling Yuan took out a lighter and candles from his pocket, inserted the number seventeen on it, and lit the candles.
Ji Yu was a bit dazed and looked around after coming back to her senses, before she whispered, “There’s no need to light the candles, it’ll be troublesome to invite the teacher over later.”
Ling Yuan stands in front of her with the cake, “It’s okay, make a wish.”
Even if the teacher came, the teacher wouldn’t dare to punish him, he is now emboldened.
Ji Yu feels a warm current welling up in her heart and her eyes heat up a little, she blinks hard to force back the astringency in her heart, then closes her eyes and makes a serious wish.
For once, what she wished for was-
Wishing for Ling Yuan’s health and peace.
She opened her eyes and blew out all the candles in one breath.
“Chi Xiaoyu, happy birthday.”
“In the years to come, I’ll spend my birthday with you.”
“The spring breeze is poetic, the summer sun is refreshing, may my girl have peace in all directions, peace in all years, no thorns on the road ahead, and beauty in everything she encounters.”
The teenager said solemnly, his dark eyes looked like stars spilling light and shadows, lighting up her eyes.
The teenager was handsome and dazzling.
Ji Yu thought that this scene, she might be able to remember it for the rest of her life.
“Senior, thank you aca.”
Ji Yu looks at him and smiles, adding, “Senior, you’re so handsome aca!”
Ling Yuan rips open the package and takes out a knife and fork, cutting the cake as he learns her tone, “When is senior not handsome?”
Placing the cake on a paper plate, he handed it to her, “Mango’s cake, your favorite flavor, taste it.”
“Yummy.” Ji Yu sits on the stone bench, digs a spoon into her mouth, and takes a new spoon and scoops up a spoonful to his mouth, “You taste it too.”
Ling Yuan slightly leaned over and opened his mouth to eat, “Not bad, not too sweet.”
The two of them took a bite and I took a bite and finished the cake, there was still a large piece left, Ling Yuan rewrapped it back, “Later, take it back to the dormitory and give it to a few of them to share and eat.”
“Good.”
