Chapter 66 Where is my gift?
Meng Tang was stunned for a moment. Shouldn't Wei Chuan help Xie Lingyin? Why would he help her?
This photo looks awkward to the four of them.
Meng Tang turned slightly, looked up at Wei Chuan and said, "Do you want to take another picture?"
Wei Chuan stared at the photo and glanced at it: "That's it, it's quite interesting."
I have to go to school tomorrow and I don’t have enough time to begin with, so I don’t want to waste it on taking pictures.
The birthday boy didn’t want to take photos, so Meng Tang couldn’t force him.
After entering the restaurant, Qin Yuan helped Wei Chuan arrange the seats: "We are all friends, there is no need to be particular, just sit wherever you like."
Qin Yuan saw that the four girls wanted to sit together, so he left four empty chairs and motioned them to come over.
Meng Tang was on the outermost side. Wei Chuan was about to walk over when he was stopped by Qin Yuan.
Wei Chuan frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"
Qin Yuan tutted, pulled him aside, and asked him to lean over and whisper, "Didn't you say Meng Tang likes Xu Heqing? I'll arrange for them to be together."
Wei Chuan choked.
Xie Lingyin was sandwiched between Yang Ke and Shi Lan. Xu Heqing didn't want to change seats with the girls, so with Qin Yuan's intentional or unintentional arrangement, he sat next to Meng Tang.
Wei Chuan was trapped by Qin Yuan and the basketball team, and happened to be facing Meng Tang.
The round table is so thick and huge that even people wearing glasses may not be able to see the person opposite them clearly.
Wei Chuan had very good eyesight and could see that Meng Tang's expression as he stared at the chopstick holder showed a bit of fondness.
The chopstick rests are in the shape of a small fish, somewhat resembling a sea bream.
Meng Tang touched the ceramic chopstick holder with his fingertips, pursed his lips and smiled.
Compared to the noisy boys on Wei Chuan's side, Meng Tang's side was much quieter.
But Xu Heqing was sitting next to her, so she couldn't feel relaxed and was inexplicably a little nervous.
Wei Chuan invited everyone to eat. Xu Heqing glanced sideways and saw that his girlfriend had already picked up her chopsticks to eat.
Meng Tang had the illusion that Xu Heqing was looking at him out of the corner of his eye, and subconsciously held his breath.
After retreating, she had been avoiding Xu Heqing intentionally or unintentionally. Occasionally, when Wei Chuan mentioned it, she would always interrupt.
As it turned out, with no connection at all, she could ignore her own excitement for Xu Heqing.
But he couldn't be completely indifferent to Xu Heqing. Meng Tang knew that what he needed was the comfort of time.
But tonight, they were within reach.
Originally, Meng Tang could have remained motionless as a mountain as long as she didn't say a word, but Xu Heqing leaned over slightly and whispered to her amid the noisy crowd:
"Actually, I've always wanted to thank you."
Thank her? Meng Tang paused, "Thank you for what?"
Xu Heqing's eyes were not very deep, always giving people a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze. Meng Tang was distracted accidentally.
"I organized my classmates to donate money to my senior, and Lingyin said you donated 5,000."
"It's my duty." Meng Tang thought it was something else. "That's all I can do. I hope I can help her."
"Money is important to her, but more important is the wooden bird you gave her. She loves it so much and said she hopes to thank you in person one day."
Meng Tang had never expected this to happen. The wooden bird was just a small toy he carved casually during his freshman year. He gave it to the other person at the time just to make him happy.
Coming back to his senses, Meng Tang asked Xu Heqing: "Why didn't Lingyin tell me?"
Xu Heqing sighed: "Senior sister's illness is not easy to treat. She must be afraid that if she mentions it to you, you will keep it in your heart. What if in the future... you ask about it then, I'm afraid you will feel bad."
Meng Tang let out a sigh, feeling a little moved.
Lingyin didn't know if it was because of her family environment that favored boys over girls, but she was very considerate of others.
Meng Tang subconsciously glanced at Wei Chuan, who was being pestered by Tian Yu to drink tea instead of wine.
"Lingyin...she's really nice."
Wei Chuan has good taste and they are a good match.
"You are very good too. Everyone in your dormitory is very nice."
Meng Tang didn't expect Xu Heqing to say this. After a moment of hesitation, he gave him a faint smile.
After Wei Chuan dealt with Tian Yu's entanglement, the first thing he saw when he looked up was this smile.
I don't know what they were talking about, but they seemed quite happy.
Except for the last time when he suddenly went crazy for some reason, Wei Chuan still dared to guarantee Xu Heqing's character.
He and Meng Tang are friends, and they both have similar secrets, so he can't help but pay attention to each other.
If she and Xu Heqing get together, they won't have to graduate and go back to get married and have children. It will be a good thing.
The more he thought about it, the deeper Wei Chuan's brows furrowed.
Drinking was prohibited during training, so he unscrewed the VOSS and took a sip, his eyelashes casting a dark shadow under his eyes.
The two were still chatting when Wei Chuan kicked Qin Yuan under the table: "When are we going to light the candles?"
Qin Yuan immediately stood up and said, "Come on, turn off the lights, light the candles, and put the hat on the birthday boy."
Qin Yuan made a dark-colored three-layer cake, which was placed on the table behind the dining table.
Wei Chuan was held down by Shao Yiming and Tian Yu and put on a birthday hat.
He thought it was ugly and was somewhat reluctant. He caught a glimpse of Meng Tang smiling as well, and retracted his hand that was about to take off the hat.
A group of people sang the birthday song so loudly that the restaurant shook so much that even an extrovert like Wei Chuan wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
The waitresses on the side were all grinning. It was worth it to see so many young men in one night.
"Make a wish, make a wish." Qin Yuan led others to cheer.
Wei Chuan closed his eyes, opened them five seconds later and blew out the candle.
Qin Yuan asked without any expression, "What wish did you make?"
Wei Chuan: "You control me."
"It must be a girlfriend."
"Brother Chuan has always had someone he likes, why haven't you confessed yet?"
"Are you afraid that girls will reject you?"
"Honestly, with your looks, just go for it."
Wei Chuan rebelled, "I don't care about you. Eat the cake."
Tian Yu started to make noises: "If you don't confess your feelings, someone else will snatch you away."
Wei Chuan subconsciously looked at Meng Tang and found that she was chatting with Xu Heqing again.
She didn't usually smile much, but tonight she smiled more than usual.
There was only enough time for eating and drinking, and they didn't touch any entertainment activities.
The basketball team had been practicing all day and were too lazy to move, so they just gathered in groups of three or five, either at the dining table or on the sofa to brag.
Meng Tang held a piece of cake and ate it in small bites.
Xie Lingyin and Shi Lan agreed to go to the bathroom. Yang Ke patted Meng Tang and asked, "Are you going?"
Before finishing the cake, Meng Tang shook his head: "You go."
Yang Ke whispered, "There are a few boys smoking over there by the window. I'm going out to get some fresh air."
Meng Tang nodded, and searched around for Wei Chuan with his peripheral vision.
The rhubarb she carved was still in her bag, and she wanted to find an opportunity to give it to him.
After finally finishing the cake, Meng Tang opened a bottle of water and took a sip, and the sweetness in his mouth subsided a little.
Qin Yuan shouted, "It's only eight o'clock. How about going to play billiards and sing some songs?"
"Singing is no fun, go play a shot."
"Walk."
After a while, Meng Tang was the only one left in the restaurant. Xie Lingyin called her and said that they had gone to the KTV area and asked Meng Tang to come over as well.
Just as Meng Tang was about to stand up, Wei Chuan came in from the door, pulled out the chair next to her and sat down.
After staring at each other for a few seconds, he asked quietly, "Where's my gift?"
