Chapter 42 Happy Birthday
There was no expression on Mu Ci's face, but he was thinking in his heart, it would be great if Jiaojiao could stick to him.
Tang Wei also poked his head out of the door and said, "Come on, I don't quite understand the tutorial you gave me, and I'm afraid it will be wasted."
The three of them entered the room and began to whisper.
Shi Jiaojiao knew nothing about all this.
She is pulling Xiao Hei to watch Animal World together.
Since Xiao Hei came here, he has been eating well and sleeping well, and he is getting better every day. Now he looks more and more like a tiger.
Shi Jiaojiao took the chicken leg and took another bite, then gave the bone to Xiao Hei.
After eating, he took out the salt and pepper spareribs.
She took one bite after another, bones...
After eating, he took a sip of milk tea and asked while burping, "Xiao Hei, are you full?"
Xiao Hei hung his head, drooling all over the floor. He rolled his eyes and looked at Shi Jiaojiao.
I'm not a real person, but you are a real dog.
The man and the tiger played for a while, and then Mu Ci came back.
"It takes so long? Is it difficult to repair?" Shi Jiaojiao asked.
Mu Ci's body stiffened, and he turned his head to avoid Jiaojiao's sight, and replied softly, "Fortunately, there was a problem with the line, but it has been repaired now."
Shi Jiaojiao nodded but didn't take it too seriously. She knew nothing about this and didn't ask any more questions.
She picked up her phone and glanced at the time. It was almost 12 o'clock and time to eat.
Just as she was thinking about what to eat, the lights in the house suddenly went out.
It was pitch dark all around.
Shi Jiaojiao frowned. Her solar panel was also broken?
"Brother?" Shi Jiaojiao called out.
However, no one in the room responded.
Shi Jiaojiao felt something was wrong, and she quickly took out the knife from the space.
What is going on?
Is someone plotting against them?
"Brother?" Shi Jiaojiao called again.
At this time, the door slowly opened.
A faint candlelight shone into the room, and Shi Jiaojiao's eyes instantly shot over there, but after seeing the scene in front of her clearly, she was stunned for a moment, and her gaze softened again.
Mu Ci was holding a birthday cake in his hand, which was covered with colorful candles.
Following behind him were Wang Jia and Tang Wei. These two people were usually completely different from each other, but now they were surprisingly consistent.
Consistently off-tune.
A happy birthday song brought out the visual effect of a winding mountain road.
"Jiaojiao, happy birthday." Mu Ci stood in front of her, his eyes full of doting.
"Make a wish and blow out the candles!" Wang Jia also shouted.
Shi Jiaojiao looked at the cake, then looked at the people, lowered her head, and made a wish in her heart.
I hope that those I love and those who love me can live safely and healthily until the end of the world.
Then, Shi Jiaojiao took a deep breath and blew out all the candles.
"Jiaojiao, happy birthday."
Wang Jia's house didn't have many good things, and she knew that Shi Jiaojiao had everything she needed.
She took out a bouquet of flowers from behind her back somewhat embarrassedly. She said it was a bouquet, but in fact there was only one flower in it, and it was wrapped in brown paper.
Of course the flowers are not real flowers.
Wang Jia was obsessed with handicrafts for a while. She made this flower by dismantling two of her own sweaters.
I made three in total, but only this one is presentable.
When Shi Jiaojiao saw the flowers, she realized that this was the purpose of Wang Jia buying the kraft paper yesterday.
She took the flowers, a touch of emotion flashed in her eyes, and she smiled and said, "Thank you, I like it very much."
After saying that, he put the flowers in a vase.
Tang Wei couldn't think of what to give, so he just picked up a big bag of snacks.
Anyway, nothing you give as a gift nowadays is as practical as this one.
Shi Jiaojiao accepted the gift with a smile, and then cut the cake.
The cake is not big, only about 8 inches, but it is more than enough for four people.
In the past, none of them liked eating cake, and even on their birthdays they would only eat one or two bites.
But today, the four of them ate up the cake cleanly.
"The cake is so delicious. Why did I feel sick of it before?" Tang Wei scraped the cream off the plate.
Shi Jiaojiao smiled. Now everyone was not getting enough to eat and their bodies were lacking in nutrition. It was not easy for them to eat something sweet, so of course it tasted delicious.
While eating the cake, she came closer to Mu Ci and said, "Brother, thank you for the cake you made."
Mu Ci was not surprised that Jiaojiao could taste it. He rubbed Jiaojiao's head with his hand and said, "Happy 20th birthday. In the new year, I hope Jiaojiao can be safe and sound, and all her wishes will come true."
His eyes were gentle and a little distressed.
It can be said that Jiaojiao and I grew up together as childhood sweethearts, and he would be by her side on every one of her birthdays.
But who could have imagined that he would suddenly fall into a coma due to a car accident and be forced to be absent for two years.
He didn't know how Jiaojiao managed to survive that period, but he could see that she was not happy.
Regrets cannot be made up for, but fortunately I have woken up.
From now on, he will never miss any important moment of Jiaojiao, even in the end times.
He will stay by her side until his death.
After eating the cake, Shi Jiaojiao decided to treat everyone to a meal.
I can't accept Wang Jia and the other man's gifts for nothing.
She thought about it and decided that hotpot would be best.
Not only is it convenient and delicious, it is also much easier than cooking and won't tire her brother out at all.
Mu Ci had no objection. Jiaojiao could do whatever she wanted as long as she was happy.
Tang Wei and Wang Jia had even less objections.
They are just here to eat for free. If they are picky, they will be struck by lightning.
At the same position, Mu Ci was still cooking the ingredients.
I didn’t get to eat Malatang last time, but I didn’t expect that after so much time, Malatang has been successfully upgraded to hotpot.
And the number of people in their party also increased from three to four.
In order to give everyone a good meal, Shi Jiaojiao smuggled a lot of things out of the space.
He also took out a few packs of various meat rolls, quick-frozen vegetables, and hot pot meatballs, as well as ice-cold beer and drinks.
The whole table was filled to the brim.
How can Xiao Hei be missing in such a lively place?
As soon as the aroma of the hot pot wafted, it came over with its own rice bowl and waited.
Everyone took their seats.
Under the warm yellow light, the bubbling sound of the hot pot, accompanied by the tempting aroma, increases one's appetite.
Everyone raised their glasses together, "Happy 20th birthday, Jiaojiao!"
"Be safe and sound, be well fed and drink well, and live forever!" Wang Jia added.
Hearing this, Tang Wei muttered, "Doesn't that make him an old monster?"
Wang Jia was so angry that she picked up a drink bottle and was about to hit him on the head.
Shi Jiaojiao watched the two of them quarreling with a smile on her face.
Mu Ci was concentrating on hotting Jiaojiao's meat.
After a while, he felt a small claw tugging at his leg.
He smiled and blanched a few slices of meat for Xiao Hei as well.
The meat was fragrant and the vegetables were fresh. At the end, a handful of noodles were added to the pot, which filled the four of us up.
Everyone ate and talked, taking a sip of wine from time to time, enjoying this rare comfort.
The atmosphere was extremely relaxed, as if we had returned to the time before the end of the world and nothing had happened.
Just a few close friends getting together to celebrate a birthday.
No one mentioned the future, nor the high temperature that ruined the mood.
Everyone held their breath.
One day, the natural disaster will end and the good life before will return.
