Gu Yanqiu went to the appointment on time, and Yin Lingxi still arrived earlier than her.
This time I made an appointment with a French restaurant. After Gu Yanqiu sat down, he said straight to the point: "Do you have something to ask me for?"
She was rushing home to coax Lin Yuewei.
Yin Lingxi made an appointment with her for two consecutive days, which was a bit abnormal.
Yin Lingxi did not answer her question directly, and pushed the menu to her, saying slowly: "Order the dishes first."
Gu Yanqiu didn't answer, Yin Lingxi turned her head and looked at her: "Or... are you in a hurry?"
"No." Gu Yanqiu had nothing else to say, so he had to take the menu, order a beef stewed with red wine and a thick soup, and return the menu.
While waiting for the dishes, Yin Lingxi finally said something valuable to Gu Yanqiu.
"Did you investigate your mother's social relationship privately?"
"yes."
"Can I know why?" Yin Lingxi crossed her fingers, pressed her back against her chin, looking into her eyes.
"No." Gu Yanqiu answered firmly.
"Okay." Yin Lingxi said, "Since you can't be honest, why do you want me to explain the truth about the matter? This seems a bit unfair."
"I can't say anything about family matters."
"Are you talking about the He family's mother and son in your family?"
"Are you investigating me?" Gu Yanqiu narrowed his eyes.
"You have to understand it roughly." Yin Lingxi raised a smile, which flew away in a flash, as if she wasn't really happy, but just smiled for a moment.
"What else have you found?"
"It's nothing. Your family's affairs were in a hot topic last year in Yanning City. Just ask someone in the circle and find out."
"So, does Miss Yin want to express any opinions?" Gu Yanqiu's words were already filled with coldness.
"There is no such thing as high opinion." Yin Lingxi lowered her head carelessly, stirring the porcelain white spoon in the coffee cup for a few times, "It's just that I don't like to make decisions without knowing anything, which goes against my principles."
"Then we are destined to be different and not to make plans?" Gu Yanqiu thought.
"It's not necessarily true." Yin Lingxi tilted her head and slightly raised the corners of her lips.
Gu Yanqiu looked at her and smiled slightly.
Only they know the two's private thoughts.
The waiter came up with the dishes. Yin Lingxi slowly scooped the soup and drank it in small sips, as if she had forgotten the topic, and re-recorded the acquisition case mentioned last night.
Gu Yanqiu chatted with her.
She now has a relationship with her, and she is also a good chat partner. She has a decent conversation and unique insights. To be fair, she is a friend who can try to make in-depth.
Yin Lingxi noticed that she would accidentally turn her eyes to the phone on the table, and stopped the topic in time at the end of the meal. She pressed the corner of her mouth lightly and joked: "What? The beauty has an appointment?"
Gu Yanqiu nodded: "My lover is waiting for me at home."
Yin Lingxi said, "Then I did something unkind." After a pause, she said, "I will leave Yanning tomorrow. The tolerance here has been completed. It will probably take some time to come next time."
Gu Yanqiu said calmly: "A good journey."
Yin Lingxi raised the corners of her lips slightly, uncovered the jacket on the back of the chair, revealing the gift bag hidden inside. She placed the gift bag on the table: "I accidentally learned about Miss Gu's birthday, congratulations in advance. I'm very careful, I hope you like it."
Gu Yanqiu smiled politely with the gift, "Ms. Yin is kind."
Yin Lingxi called the waiter to settle the bill and stood up and said, "I won't disturb you and Mrs. Zun's good night. See you next time."
Gu Yanqiu also stood up with a gift: "I'll give it to you."
The two were separated at the entrance of the restaurant.
***
When Lin Yuewei entered the door, the first thing he saw was the gift bag in the other party's hand, and his eyes immediately became sharp: "What is this?"
"The gift from Yin Lingxi." Gu Yanqiu didn't say the word "birthday", for fear of arousing Lin Yuewei's suspicion. Moreover, people have this kind of mentality. The sooner the birthday comes, the less they don't say these two words, and they feel more surprised.
"What are you giving you a gift?" Lin Yuewei took the bag in her hand and shook it, "What is inside?"
"I don't know, I haven't removed it yet." Gu Yanqiu sat down on the sofa, walked around his neck and pressed it gently. After working for a day, she drove out for dinner. She was a little tired.
This sentence pleased Lin Yuewei a little, and she pointed to the bag: "Can I take it apart?"
"Yes, please dismantle."
Lin Yuewei opened the packaging bag in a few seconds, and there was a square royal blue velvet box inside. Lin Yuewei stuffed the box into Gu Yanqiu's hand and deliberately said, "You open it, it seems more important."
Gu Yanqiu: "No, no, no, I don't pay attention to it."
Lin Yue snorted slightly and opened the box.
——Inside is a bracelet.
Gu Yanqiu's heart first lifted up, and it made a sharp slap. After seeing the bracelet clearly, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Not the same style or even the same color, this one is pink and gold.
Lin Yuewei bought her a bracelet and was waiting for her birthday to give it to her. If the gift was given in advance, it would be bad. Fortunately.
Lin Yuewei looked at the bracelet in the box and tickled heavily, her eyes full of disgust.
Gu Yanqiu thought she had bumped into a gift with Yin Lingxi and was dissatisfied. Just as she was about to say something, Lin Yuewei said, "Is there any courage to give it to me just an ordinary bracelet?"
Gu Yanqiu frowned slightly, Lin Yuewei said this...it should be anger.
Lin Yuewei turned her head and asked Gu Yanqiu: "Do you like bracelets?" If she really likes it, she basically never saw Gu Yanqiu wearing it. She obviously likes to wear Buddhist beads, but Yin Lingxi really can't even flatter her.
Unexpectedly, Gu Yanqiu nodded and said, "I like it very much."
She lies, but it is not entirely considered a lie.
Gu Yanqiu used to not like bracelets, she had to wear watches on her left hand and Buddhist beads on her right hand, and there was no place to wear them. But if Lin Yuewei gave her, she would like them now.
This time, it was Lin Yuewei's turn to be surprised: "!!!"
Why haven't you heard her say it before?
Lin Yuewei's expression changed. Gu Yanqiu felt that he was not clear enough, which might cause misunderstandings, so he pointed to the bracelet in the box and said, "But I don't like pink and gold, I prefer silver."
Lin Yuewei said "Oh" in a daze.
This is different from what she imagined.
Lin Yuewei thought for a while and asked Gu Yanqiu again in disbelief: "Do you really like bracelets?"
Gu Yanqiu replied: "I like it, I like the silver one the most."
Lin Yuewei looked at her and looked a little dazed.
Lin Yuewei's performance was different from Gu Yanqiu's imagination, as if the bracelet in the drawer at home was not prepared for her. But she didn't doubt it, just thought: Lin Yuewei is worthy of being an actor and acted more naturally than her.
Gu Yanqiu put the bracelet and gift bag given by Yin Lingxi in the storage room. When passing by the room, he took a casual look inside. The drawers were intact. Tomorrow she would have to get up earlier than Lin Yuewei, so as not to find that Schrödinger had pulled open the drawers at home and accidentally leaked the filling.
I got tired of it once at night. Gu Yanqiu went to bed early, and Lin Yuewei had insomnia with her eyes open.
She sat up from the bed, observed Gu Yanqiu carefully for a few minutes, confirmed that she was asleep, and then sneaked out of the bedroom door. She came back for a long time, sighed silently in the darkness, and fell asleep again.
Bracelets are bracelets.
***
Qu Xuesong finally settled the time to have dinner with Lin Yuewei, a few days later than what she said before, and the time was very good. On March 11, just one day before Gu Yanqiu's birthday.
It was Monday that day. Gu Yanqiu went to work, and Lin Yuewei didn't even have to ask for excuses. He drove out of his house at noon that day. Qu Xuesong's big star, anyone recognized him wherever he went, and decided to be in a private club with a remote environment and high price.
Lin Yuewei arrived first, Qu Xuesong stepped on some and came in under the guidance of the waiter. When he saw Lin Yuewei, his eyebrows raised, but he was not so polite: "Lin Dapai, I've been waiting for a long time."
Lin Yuewei almost knelt down for her: "Teacher Qu, Sister Qu, please spare me, I really know that I was wrong."
She bowed her hand, bent down to ninety degrees, and bowed to the end.
Qu Xuesong snorted and took his seat.
The waiter was coming to pour tea and water. Lin Yue stopped him with a slight hand and said, "I'll do it."
She filled Qu Xuesong with tea and said, "Good West Lake Longjing, Sister Qu, please try it?"
Qu Xuesong took a sip, returned to sweetness, and nodded lightly: "It's okay."
Lin Yuewei pinched her shoulders, and her strength was moderate. Qu Xuesong squinted her eyes and enjoyed for a while. He felt embarrassed to hold it anymore. He was worried about something with a child, and he went back to life.
She patted Lin Yuewei's hand that was put on her shoulder: "Okay, don't behave like me here, I'll talk about it if I have something to do."
Lin Yuewei: "It's okay, I just treat you to a meal and have a spa if you have time in the afternoon."
Qu Xuesong: "No time."
Lin Yuewei: "See you are here again?"
Qu Xuesong flicked the corner of his armband and took a sip with a teacup: "I really don't have much time. I have an interview tonight, so I have to go in advance."
Lin Yuewei immediately collapsed: "So busy?"
Qu Xuesong smiled, pointed at her forehead, and immediately let it go: "Other way? Do you think I am the same as you? I really took some time to come and have a meal with you."
Lin Yuewei: "My honor."
Qu Xuesong: "Greasy."
Lin Yuewei: “…”
OK, then it's not greasy.
Lin Yuewei took out the gifts prepared in advance, circled them twice in front of her, and dubbed them herself: "Dangdangdangdang."
Qu Xuesong: "What's this?"
Lin Yuewei: "I'll open it for you?" She put the gift bag at Qu Xuesong's hand.
Qu Xuesong raised his eyebrows, opened it curiously, then took out the bracelet and put it on his hand, shone it in the light twice, and said, "It's not bad, it looks pretty good, you have a little conscience."
The stone in Lin Yuewei's heart fell completely and said with a smile: "It's good that you like it."
Qu Xuesong followed her words and brought up an intriguing smile: "I like everything?"
Lin Yuewei dared not answer and shivered.
Qu Xuesong said to himself: "What if I like you? Would it be fine?"
Lin Yuewei carefully dredged a little: "The one in my family probably disagrees." She could not expose Gu Yanqiu to Qu Xuesong, but she could expose her partner, and she was 100% sure Qu Xuesong would not go out to say it.
Qu Xuesong looked at her expression for a while and suddenly said with interest: "Are you afraid of me?"
Lin Yue stammered for a moment: "A little."
Qu Xuesong laughed: "Okay, I don't like kids like you. I've told you so many times, don't be too sentimental."
Lin Yuewei: “…”
Is this her own self-indulgent? It is obvious that Qu Xuesong always likes to tease her. It would be fine if it were someone else, but Qu Xuesong, the person Gu Yanqiu cares the most. She still feels uneasy when she comes out without Gu Yanqiu today.
Qu Xuesong was shocked again, and she was about to be scared to death.
Lin Yuewei asked boldly: "Then what kind of thing do you like?"
"I like..." The figure of Ji Han appeared in Qu Xuesong's mind. He was mature, intellectual, serious, and decisive. He was gentle and unknown to outsiders. Many years have passed, and Qu Xuesong still couldn't forget the other party. Even after the other party slandered her in front of her current employee, she was the person she subconsciously remembered.
It's like a nightmare that cannot be escaped, day and night.
Qu Xuesong's eyes dimmed a moment, the air pressure around him decreased, and he raised his eyes and looked at her coldly: "Anyway, it's not like you."
Lin Yuewei understood when she looked at her expression. She must have thought of her old friend.
Lin Yuewei wanted to ask if it was Ji Han. Her intuition told her that Qu Xuesong and Ji Han might have a story, but she was inconvenient to speak up for her private matters. She asked the right question, she exposed the scars, and the wrong question, which caused embarrassment.
Unexpectedly, Qu Xuesong took the initiative to mention this topic, although it was indirect.
"Is Shao Yasi your friend?" Qu Xuesong asked casually. She reached out to take a small bowl of soup served by the waiter, took a sip, and it was a little hot, so she put it aside for a while.
"yes."
"What a good friend?" Qu Xuesong picked up a small bit of winter bamboo shoots with chopsticks. The winter bamboo shoots here were fried very refreshingly, with less oil and less salt. The taste of the ingredients itself was at its peak. Qu Xuesong picked up a chopstick for Lin Yue with public chopsticks, "You can try it too, it's quite delicious."
"Thank you." Lin Yue paused and answered her question just now, "Good friends, we both debuted on the same show, so we should be considered best friends."
"That's how." Qu Xuesong lowered his eyes and thought.
She is not a person who likes to meddle in other people's business. Last time she reminded her that she couldn't stand Ji Han's lying to the little girl again. Perhaps she had another idea at work. Since she was sure that she was Lin Yuewei's friend, she couldn't bear to watch her jump into the fire pit.
Qu Xuesong looked up at Lin Yuewei and said, "Ji Han is not someone worth entrusting his life."
Lin Yuewei was shocked and said to herself: Sure enough.
She pretended to be confused and said, "Does Teacher Qu know her very well?"
Qu Xuesong had no expression on his face: "It's very familiar." He added, "Once upon a time."
Lin Yuewei took this matter to heart: "I will tell you."
Qu Xuesong said again: "Don't say it was me, and just let it go. If she is stubborn, you don't have to worry about her."
Lin Yuewei nodded: "I know."
Qu Xuesong let out a light "um" and accidentally revealed this topic.
Later, I talked about gossip.
Qu Xuesong knew more than Lin Yuewei, so Lin Yuewei pulled out the question that was innocently pulled onto the hot search a few days ago and asked her, and Qu Xuesong really knew.
"The heroine offended someone, but the person I offended had no great ability. I could only use some tricks that were not painful and itchy to blackmail her. In less than a day, I sank down and was fired from the official blog. As for you, you are just a little shrimp that was thrown away after using it. In fact, you took advantage of the heroine's popularity."
"Then I am the biggest winner?"
"So that's it." The topic became relaxed, and Qu Xuesong's eyebrows and eyes also had a gentle smile. "But you can only be considered a small profit. When you really become popular one day, you will know what the winner is."
"Are you a winner?" Lin Yuewei suddenly asked her. She was a first-line actress, a queen of ratings, a top-notch endorsement, and won a TV series award. With the requirement of a TV series actor, this should be true.
"no."
For some reason, Qu Xuesong's answer did not surprise Lin Yuewei.
She always feels that Qu Xuesong has a pessimistic atmosphere and cannot be particularly interested in anything. She is a real work machine. She is usually hidden very well, bright and beautiful, and has a charming style. She will only reveal it when she comes to a place where there is no one or talks about more private topics like this.
"perhaps……"
"Maybe something?"
Lin Yuewei found that she actually spoke out loud. She shook her head and smiled: "It's nothing. Maybe when I get to your point, I will think the same as you. People have more, and they will always want to have more. Let's enter the movie industry?"
Qu Xuesong smiled and refused to comment on her remarks.
She knew that she was not missing.
Lin Yuewei knew it was not, but she didn't say it.
The two looked at each other tacitly, and no one exposed it. Some roads have to be made by themselves, while others need fate when they encounter them. Qu Xuesong's career has stabilized. It is not that she had thought of falling in love with someone again, but it is too difficult. If it weren't for Ji Han's constant romance around him over the years, she might have been unable to help but go back to find the other person.
Finally, Qu Xuesong sent an invitation to Lin Yuewei: "I plan to invest in a drama and play the leading role by myself. Are you interested?"
"Me?" Lin Yuewei was flattered and then said sincerely: "I have thanks to Teacher Qu's kindness, but I still have a movie to film in the middle of this year. I guess I won't have time until the end of the year, so I shouldn't be able to catch up with the schedule."
"Don't worry, I have a chance at hand, I'll just give you a reservation in advance."
“How long before?”
"It's two years." Qu Xuesong touched his chin.
Lin Yuewei: “…”
Qu Xuesong patted her on the shoulder: "You will definitely be popular in two years. At that time, many people will grab it. I will give it a mouthful first so that I won't be able to grab it in the future."
Lin Yuewei: "Do you want to record another sound?"
Qu Xuesong made a gesture to touch his phone: "It makes some sense."
Lin Yuewei sat upright, and Qu Xuesong laughed.
The meal was so happy that the guests and guests were having fun. At 3:30 in the afternoon, Qu Xuesong's nanny car drove out of the club. She went directly to the TV station from here. Lin Yuewei also left shortly after she left.
She went back to the Lin family first. When the weather was warmer, Ms. Ran Qingqing couldn't stay in the house, so she ran out to play with her flowers and plants. The Corgi dog was having fun in the yard and ran around.
Lin Yuewei parked the car in the yard, hurriedly shouted "Mom" to Ran Qingqing who was watering the flowers, and rushed into the room.
Ran Qingqing looked at her back and shouted, "What are you doing? Are you rushing to reincarnate?"
Lin Yuewei had already arrived upstairs. She took two seconds to open the bedroom window, shouted downstairs, "Yes, hurry up and reincarnate."
Ran Qingqing raised her head and said, "Would you like to have dinner at home tonight?"
Lin Yue shouted, "I won't eat it."
Ran Qingqing lowered her head and coughed, and Lin Yuewei closed the window.
Lin Yuewei looked at the time on the watch, took the things and left, and left when she went out: "Mom, I'll be back this weekend, and I'll take your daughter-in-law with me."
"It's a son-in-law."
"Daughter-in-law!"
"Wait a minute, what are you on your hands?" Ran Qingqing called her. Lin Yuewei, who had empty hands, went in and came out again. She had a black backpack in her hand.
Lin Yue raised the bag in her hand slightly: "Is this?"
Ran Qingqing: "Yes."
Lin Yue smiled and said, "I won't tell you, see you on the weekend."
She got into the car, blew a kiss to Ran Qingqing, and left with a laugh.
***
At 6:10 p.m. on March 11, Gu Yanqiu's birthday countdown, five hours and forty-five minutes.
Gu Yanqiu arrived home on time, and Lin Yuewei sat on the sofa at home, lying Schrödinger on his hand, the same as every day before.
"I'm back." Gu Yanqiu spoke in a low voice.
Lin Yuewei replied to her with normal volume: "Schrödinger didn't sleep."
Gu Yanqiu felt relieved and shouted Schrödinger's name. Schrödinger jumped off the sofa and raised his head at her feet to beg for a hug. Gu Yanqiu bent over and hugged it, and asked Lin Yuewei: "What do you want to eat?"
Lin Yue rubbed her eyes slightly, then blinked hard, and breathed casually: "Anything is OK, make something simple, you can eat it soon, I'm a little hungry."
"good."
Gu Yanqiu put down the cat and went to the refrigerator to get the ingredients. He originally wanted to stir-fry two dishes. With Lin Yuewei's helper, he quickly served it on the table.
After dinner, the record was broken, and it was only seven o'clock.
The countdown to Gu Yanqiu’s birthday is five hours.
After resting for about ten minutes, she went out to walk her cat. At 8 o'clock, Lin Yuewei went to take a shower first, while Gu Yanqiu hid snacks for Schrödinger downstairs as usual. She listened to the movements upstairs and was silent. She pulled the drawer open and the gift inside disappeared.
I was here last night and was taken away today.
Gu Yanqiu's eyes turned, and he looked at the empty drawer bent the corners of his mouth and closed it again.
At 11:30 pm, Gu Yanqiu's birthday countdown, thirty minutes.
After taking a shower, Lin Yuewei stung Gu Yanqiu for three hours, and finally fell asleep exhausted.
Gu Yanqiu mutes his phone and waits until early in the morning with his eyes open. Several messages came in from his phone one after another. She first clicked Cheng Guiyuan:
【Big Kite: Happy Birthday! Big Qiuqiu!】
[Xigu: Don't give me nicknames randomly]
[Big Kite: Hahaha, it's time to celebrate your birthday, there must be some preferential treatment. I'll send you a birthday gift to the company tomorrow. I won't bother you know that you want to be a partner in the world.
[Big Kite: Oh, you two have fought until now, right? The first shot at the age of 26 is very meaningful. Oh, you won’t be in progress now, right? [Shy]]
Gu Yanqiu glanced at Lin Yuewei, who was sleeping and typed calmly: [She is asleep, your thoughts are purer]
【Big Kite: I'm going to sleep too, I'll say it tomorrow】
【Xigu: See you back】
Then it's Gu Feiquan-
[Gabe: At this special moment, please allow me to say to you: Happy birthday! brotherloveyou!]
【Xigu: Thank you】
[Gabe: I will wait for me in the parking lot after get off work tomorrow, I have a gift to you]
【Xigu: OK】
【Gabe: Go to bed early, good night】
【Xigu: Good night】
Next is Gu Huai-
【Baby daughter, happy birthday, the gift I give you is handed over by Feiquan】
Gu Yanqiu replied: [Thank you dad]
And Ran Qingqing-
【It's Ran Qingqing, not Wen Qingqing: Happy birthday, mom loves you】
Gu Yanqiu's eyes were caught off guard and felt a little sore.
【Xigu: Thank you】
【It's Ran Qingqing, not Wen Qingqing: Go to bed quickly, otherwise you will have dark circles]
[Xigu: I know, I'll go to bed immediately, good night]
[It's Ran Qingqing, not Wen Qingqing: I've slept too, it's not easy to stay until now, good night, good boy]
There are also friends from abroad who actually calculated the time difference and sent her messages, which Gu Yanqiu didn't expect. She was not good at getting close to others and did not take her friendship too seriously. As time and distance pass, everyone will eventually become unfamiliar, but at least this year, everyone still cares about her.
They all replied, Gu Yanqiu smiled with a satisfied smile and fell asleep in Lin Yuewei's arms.
On March 12th, at 7 o'clock in the morning, Gu Yanqiu woke up under the urging of the alarm clock, and Lin Yuewei also moaned and woke up slowly.
Gu Yanqiu looked at Lin Yuewei's eyes. Lin Yuewei touched the corners of her eyes with her fingertips and wiped off the dirty things: "Is there any more?"
Gu Yanqiu: "...nothing."
Did Lin Yuewei say nothing to her?
Lin Yue stretched out, jumped out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash, and Gu Yanqiu followed.
"What should I eat in the morning?" Lin Yue asked in a microphone.
"What do you want to eat?"
"I can do it. I haven't eaten noodles for a long time. Let's eat noodles."
Gu Yanqiu's eyes moved slightly, and he looked at her and said, "Noodles?" Could it be that he wanted to make her longevity noodles?
"Hand-rolled noodles or noodles are fine." Lin Yuewei was unaware of it.
"Don't you have a noodles, are you going to come or me?"
"What do you think?" Lin Yue stared at her with a slight look.
Finally, there were noodles made by Lin Yuewei, two bowls, and an egg lay in one bowl. Does it taste like a good or bad, and it can be eaten. Gu Yanqiu ate it like a delicious food in the world. After eating, she looked at Lin Yuewei without saying a word.
Lin Yuewei said: "Look at what I do, change my clothes and go to work, otherwise I will be late."
Gu Yanqiu held it in for a few seconds, but he stopped talking, so he went upstairs to change his clothes.
Lin Yuewei blinked again, a smile flashed across the corner of her mouth, and she turned around to clean up the dishes.
At eight o'clock in the morning, Gu Yanqiu went out and Lin Yuewei gave her. Gu Yanqiu stared at her for a long time again, and couldn't help but spread her palms and handed them to her. Lin Yuewei held her palm and kissed her.
"Be good, go to work."
Gu Yanqiu got into the car and bulged his cheeks where Lin Yuewei saw.
Her bracelet!
***
As soon as Gu Yanqiu entered the company, he was blinded by the handsome guy at the door of the office. Lin Zhi held a large bouquet of roses in his hand and led all the employees in the office and said in unison: "Happy birthday to Mr. Gu!"
Gu Yanqiu: “…”
Lin Zhi brought the flowers up, and Gu Yanqiu felt a little embarrassed, but he had to accept it: "Thank you."
She pushed the door and entered the office. After a while, Lin Zhi came in with coffee.
"Happy birthday." He said again.
"Thanks."
Lin Zhi took out a small packaging box from his wide pocket, held it in front of him with his hands, and his head bit by bit, as if embarrassed: "A birthday gift for you."
"No need to spend so much money." Gu Yanqiu said as he refused to come back.
"No cost or expense, just one perfume, it doesn't cost much, I can't afford anything else." Lin Zhi waved his hand quickly, carrying both hands behind his back, fearing that she would pay it back to him again.
"Aren't your girlfriend jealous?" Gu Yanqiu put the perfume next to the computer, which means he accepted it.
Lin Zhi smiled honestly and grabbed the back of his head: "I reported it to her, otherwise I wouldn't have the courage to do that? She recommended the perfume to me."
Given Gu Yanqiu's consumption level, jewelry is no longer a problem. Lin Zhi can only buy small items such as lipstick, perfume, etc. Fortunately, these small items are both promising and relatively affordable, and Lin Zhi's salary is completely affordable.
"That's good."
"Then I'll leave first?" Lin Zhi pointed outside the door.
"Yeah, work hard."
"Okay." Lin Zhixiaobu jumped back.
Gu Yanqiu opened the perfume and sprayed it a little on his wrist. After smelling it, it smelled OK and put it in his shoulder bag.
Cheng Guiyuan's gift came later, which was a watch. Gu Yanqiu looked at the new watch for a while, replaced the old one, put it in a box, took a photo of his wrist, and sent it to Cheng Guiyuan.
Cheng Guiyuan praised her endlessly.
Gu Yanqiu called home at noon, and Lin Yuewei sneezed and sneezed on the other end of the phone.
"Have you caught a cold?"
"No, I choked by the pepper."
"Be careful, what dish did you cook at noon?"
"Steamed pumpkin...cough cough cough...green pepper shredded potatoes, and...cough cough cough... vegetarian fried beef soft soup."
"Are the green peppers at home that spicy?" Gu Yanqiu asked suspiciously.
"I don't know, I just choked. Are you still in trouble? If you have nothing to do, just die first. I have to go to the teacher's place to attend class in the afternoon, it's too late." Lin Yuewei said anxiously.
"...Okay." Gu Yanqiu hung up the phone in disappointment. At that moment, he seemed to hear the dinging sounds opposite him. He wanted to listen carefully, but he could no longer hear them.
Could it be that Lin Yuewei really doesn’t remember it? The noodles in the morning were just a coincidence? She didn’t think it was a longevity noodles at all, just made a bowl of noodles in an ordinary way.
No, I must be preparing some surprise for myself, and the bracelet has not been given yet.
She comforted herself, so she looked forward to getting off work even more.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, half an hour before getting off work, Gu Yanqiu's work had been completed under her high concentration of attention, but she could not leave early, so she had no intention of letting her do anything else. So she opened the bridge client of the computer bored and clicked on the friend list. Weicao was indeed not online.
She matched herself with someone, and the game ended and just took the time to get off work.
The wind blew out of the office, and Lin Zhi at the door was still standing there. What was that?
Just as he got rid of the torture of sitting on duty, another "block" came. Gu Yanqiu stood at the door of the downward elevator, looked at Gu Feiquan's caller ID in his mobile phone, and picked up: "Hey."
Gu Feiquan: "There are many people in the garage now, and Wu and the two of them are off work now. You can go down later, otherwise it will be bad if you are discovered."
Gu Yanqiu: “…”
Lin Zhi packed the table and felt a cold all over his body. He looked up and said, "Okay, Gu Yanqiu is back."
Lin Zhi: "Mr. Gu..."
Gu Yanqiu brought the office door.
Tianrui did not have the habit of working overtime, and basically got off work as soon as possible. Half an hour later, there were not many people left in the entire building. Gu Yanqiu finally went down to the underground garage with Gu Feiquan's permission.
As the two of them secretly joined each other, Gu Yanqiu looked around and sat in the back seat of Gu Feiquan's Birthday.
Gu Feiquan took out two bags: "The one on the left is mine, and the one on the right is Dad's."
Gu Yanqiu: "Yeah, I know, I'm leaving." She took it and was about to get off the car, so she rushed home to see Lin Yuewei.
Gu Feiquan immediately said sadly: "Don't you open it and take a look?"
Gu Yanqiu: “…”
She couldn't stand Gu Feiquan's pitiful eyes and went to remove the gift. When her hand just touched the bag, Gu Feiquan couldn't wait to remind him: "Disasse mine first, the one on the left."
Gu Yanqiu: “…”
Gu Feiquan looked at her expectantly: "To the left."
The one on the left was removed. Gu Yanqiu took out another box from the box, like a Russian doll, and finally took out one... Gu Yanqiu didn't know what to call it. The base was crystal, and there was an independent golden rooster embedded in the middle, which was made of real pure gold.
Gu Yanqiu: “…”
Gu Feiquan: "How is it?"
Gu Yanqiu said unfaithfully: "...good-looking."
Gu Feiquan: "Well? I think giving necklaces and bracelets is too ordinary. My golden rooster represents your zodiac sign, and can be placed at home. The golden rooster is dawning, and the lucky stars are shining. The meaning is also very good. And when you look at this chicken, it looks like an ordinary golden rooster at first glance."
Gu Yanqiu: "Look carefully?"
Gu Feiquan pointed inside through the glass and said proudly: "A closer look is not an ordinary chicken, but his eyes are gems. Have you seen it? I found someone to customize it."
Gu Yanqiu forced a smile: "It's pretty good."
Gu Feiquan looked at her with bright eyes, his face saying "Praise me quickly and praise me quickly."
Gu Yanqiu: "I like the gift you gave very much. This chicken is the most... special gift I have ever received."
Gu Yanqiu couldn't praise him anymore, so he went to tear off Gu Huai's. Gu Feiquan pressed her wrist through her clothes: "You'll take it home and tear it off again." Gu Feiquan's confident face was mysterious, "Anyway, it must be not as good as mine."
Gu Yanqiu: “…”
Whatever you say is what you want.
Gu Yanqiu pushed open a crack in the car door, looked out, and there was no one on the left and right, so he was ready to go down. Gu Feiquan said behind her, "Next time, we will have a meal together, and bring your wife with me."
Gu Yanqiu: "...good."
As soon as the garage was delayed, it was already dark when Gu Yanqiu drove the car out of the parking lot. When she waited for the red light, she looked at her cell phone. Since the phone was hung up at noon, she did not receive any messages from Lin Yuewei.
I usually send her messages after class, but hasn't the get out of class finished yet?
The sound of urging car horns came from behind, and Gu Yanqiu frowned slightly and put down his cell phone with great worries.
Her mood inexplicably slowly declined along the way.
After entering the community, I saw a villa without a trace of light from afar, and I completely fell into a trough.
She parked her car into the garage, turned off the engine, and just walked out of the garage door, her phone, which had been quiet for an afternoon, finally rang out the incoming call ringtone, and three big words were jumping on the screen: Dear.
Gu Yanqiu looked at the dark villa in front of him and had an ominous premonition, and he didn't even want to answer the call.
She took a light breath and picked it up.
"Baby, I was left to eat at her house by the teacher. I'm back later."
"...Okay." Gu Yanqiu clenched his palms and pressed the slight tremor in his voice.
"Why do you sound wrong?"
"No, the wind is a bit strong. I just got home and haven't entered the door yet."
"Okay, then you're waiting for me at home. The teacher calls me and I'll go to have a meal."
"Bay." Gu Yanqiu hung up the phone so quickly for the first time.
She looked at the road surface illuminated by the street lights under her feet, and a little ghost was slowly brought into her sight.
It is normal to not remember. It was the first time I celebrated my birthday together. Lin Yuewei looked at me like a very careful person. She blamed herself for hiding it and didn’t tell her in advance. Maybe she remembered that she just thought that her birthday was not important, so she just thought it was just that. Even if it wasn’t possible, would it be difficult to say “Happy Birthday” without a gift?
She only needs one sentence or four words, and she can do without gifts.
Gu Yanqiu blinked hard, but his vision became blurry and tears surged out.
She had to raise her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
It doesn't matter.
She took a deep breath.
Tell her in advance next year, it really doesn't matter.
She stood in the cold wind for ten minutes, walked forward with her head down, and opened the door of her house quietly.
creak—click—
She turned around and locked the door, and took a deep breath.
Well, that's OK.
But music came from the empty room, very light and somewhat inferior, like the very old lotus candle that spins and blooms when I saw it when I was a child. The tone was: Happy birthday to you, and Happy birthday to you...
Gu Yanqiu was stunned.
When she reached the third climax, light suddenly surged on the dark ground in front of her. From under her feet to the front, the colorful dominoes that suddenly lit up spread out into a glowing passage.
At the end of the passage, Lin Yuewei was standing holding a cake. Lin Yuewei was wearing a big red dress, with a ribbon tied with a bow tied at the collar, like an oversized surprise.
"Happy birthday to you..." Lin Yue looked at her with a smile and closed her last sentence gently.

This chapter thanks: Deep water x2 of a lazy person
Lin Gong is just a little straight man, not a fool hahaha, you can forget your birthday, but you can't forget your wife's birthday, so Cliff began to calculate half a year in advance
This has nothing to do with the sense of ritual. It is about you, it is all the instinct of love.
It's so hard to hold back and not give you spoilers
ps: To put it bluntly, my partner and I don’t pay attention to the sense of ritual. Once the ring was taken in the mall and had to wait for half an hour. I pulled my partner on a whim and said, “Let’s go downstairs to buy a pair of rings (there are many luxury counters on the first floor of the mall), and then I bought a pair of rings and put them on after a while. But birthdays and anniversaries will definitely be celebrated. I will remember them for her and she will remember them for me. One of the gifts given to my partner this year was 1,314 paper-stacked stars (the kind of small flowers, but I didn’t write them). Of course, I wouldn’t talk about sitting on the bed crying because I was too poor in mathematics that night.
Usually, after this one, I immediately think about the next one for her
pps: Foreshadows foreshadowing the journey of the forest and all the preparations made for birthdays, but I guess you haven't noticed it, let's listen to the next breakdown
