"...I said," Lu Jingxu lowered his head and went to the dining room to turn on the lights, "Happy birthday to you."
Her heart seemed to be hit by something suddenly. Su Yinyin stood there in a daze, looking at the light from the light yellow restaurant chandelier - a cake decorated with rose lace and exquisitely carved was placed on the table.
Su Yinyin walked to the dining table in a daze, opened the transparent packaging of the cake, and said absentmindedly: "Is this - for me?"
Lu Jingxu's indifferent eyes stayed on her for a few seconds, and he said "hmm".
"Isn't today your birthday? I have work during the day and can't be home."
This is her birthday cake, bought for her by Lu Jingxu.
Seeing that Su Yinyin didn't say anything, Lu Jingxu thought that she didn't like what he bought.
"Don't you want to eat?"
Su Yinyin shook her head violently, sat down at the dining table, untied the fork and stuffed the cake into her mouth.
"No, I love it, thank you."
Although she had just eaten a cake, for some reason, she didn't want to waste a single bite of the cake in front of her.
Even though her stomach was about to explode, she still stuffed mouthful after mouthful of food into her mouth.
Lu Jingxu sat down next to her, looked at her and shook his head helplessly, then handed her a piece of paper.
"Eat slowly, no one is going to snatch it from you."
She took the paper and continued to eat.
After finishing her meal, she gave Lu Jingxu a satisfied look: "It's delicious."
Lu Jingxu's eyebrows curved. "Really? You even forgot to make a wish."
She had never celebrated her birthday and had forgotten to make a wish. After Lu Jingxu reminded her of this, she suddenly felt a little lost for no reason.
Yes, you have to make a wish on the birthday cake, but I forgot and wasted the cake.
"I forgot..."
"It's okay. You can tell me the same thing. Maybe I can help you make your wish come true."
Su Yinyin shifted her gaze to him. His eyes were dark, as if there were a pool of stars living in them. His thick eyelashes grew on his lazily drooping eyelids, making him look too handsome.
She wiped her mouth clean but didn't look at him: "I won't tell you."
————
The filming of "Underground Factory" was going on abroad and Su Yinyin had to be away for two months, so she didn't see Lu Jingxu for a few days before joining the crew.
Probably because he was filming abroad, he had to attend all his business activities before that.
It was not until the day before yesterday that the missing person finally showed up at home.
While packing his luggage, he threw mosquito repellent spray into Su Yinyin's suitcase.
She didn't expect this. Even in autumn and winter there, there are still a lot of mosquitoes.
The next day, she took Lu Jingxu's car directly to the airport. When she arrived, she was a little surprised to see two people getting out of the same car.
He pointed at the two of them and stuttered, "You...are on your way."
Su Yinyin quickly nodded before Lu Jingxu could say anything, "Yes, I'm not very familiar with the road. Coincidentally, Mr. Lu and I live in the same neighborhood, so I asked him to take me here."
Gu Jiu nodded as if he believed it.
It was not far from City S, and the flight took only four hours. Su Yinyin took a nap on the way, and when she got off the plane, she saw people who warmly welcomed them at the airport.
Although they are all locals, they speak fluent Mandarin.
"Hello, welcome, welcome."
It was Su Yinyin's first time going abroad, so she also learned their greeting gestures and spoke to them.
Lu Jingxu was always very aloof. He just smiled politely and walked forward with his luggage.
When we arrived at the local hotel, the environment was relatively clean. It was not as cold here as in China, but we still had to wear thicker clothes at night. Su Yinyin was a little uncomfortable with the food here, so she asked the hotel's kitchenette to cook for her.
Liu Yue applied to the company to come here in a few days. Before that, she has to take care of everything by herself.
Of course, she didn't forget to call and ask Lu Jingxu what he wanted to eat.
"I don't care."
A cold voice sounded from the other side. He was different from Su Yinyin. He had a scene on the first day and had already arrived at the set to prepare for filming.
Another voice came from the other end of the phone, it seemed to be Gu Jiu's: "Jing Xu, what are you having for lunch tonight?"
Lu Jingxu's voice became a little softer, and he replied to the person on the other end: "No need to order mine."
"Oh, all right."
"Then I'll bring it over when I'm done. What time do you guys finish?"
"Today's big night shoot..."
There was a rustling sound over there, but it was not clear:
"Let's not talk about that now, let's start filming."
"Oh, okay."
Su Yinyin hung up the phone and thought about buying some more ingredients. If they were shooting a night scene, she could make some midnight snacks for the crew, and by the way, she could also watch the performance of the best actor.
The transportation here is not as convenient as in China, and she was afraid of being ripped off if she took a taxi, so she asked a staff member to drive her there.
The staff member was wearing glasses, looked quite young, and was quite familiar. When he saw Su Yinyin, he enthusiastically called her "Sister Su".
"My name is Zhang Li, you can just call me Xiao Zhang."
It was the first time that Su Yinyin was addressed like this, and she responded with some surprise.
"Oh, hello, Xiao Zhang."
Zhang Li sat in the driver's seat and started talking to Su Yinyin.
"Sister, what are you carrying? Big bags and small bags, and they smell so good. I'm so greedy."
"These are some meals and midnight snacks I just made. If you want to eat them, you can come and get them later. They are made for you anyway."
The person in the front exclaimed: "After following so many groups, this is the first time I've eaten food cooked by the heroine herself. Sister Su, you are so kind."
