Chapter 118 Birthday Gift



Lu Shan has been very tired recently. Ever since the authorities started targeting Wolf Spider, she has not had a good night's sleep. She has been busy every day, arranging various matters for Wolf Spider, being on guard against Snake Fang, Meridian Gate and Qianye, dealing with the authorities, and cleaning up the mess in Province G. Now that the big crisis has finally passed, she has to cheer up and engage in psychological warfare with the leaders of the other three families. She has no chance to rest.

"You are the one who is helping me. If I were alone, I would have been exhausted." Lu Shan said tiredly on the other end of the phone. Suddenly, she changed her tone and said, "But your subordinates are really useful. Gua San and Gua Wu are not to be mentioned. They are practical and capable, and they don't talk much, which saves you a lot of trouble. Although Gua Yi and Gua Er have some personality flaws, one is too dull and the other is too noisy, their abilities are really excellent. And Gua Jiu is really amazing in collecting information. Xiaojun, you see how tired I am. Why don't you lend them to me again..."

Lian Jun refused cruelly: "No, Wumen and Qianye are definitely sending people to secretly watch you. In order to prevent them from finding out, you must keep a distance from my people from now on."

Lu Shan's plan was wasted before she finished. She cursed and said angrily: "Damn Meng Qing and Qi Yun, they are so cunning, just like dog shit that you can't get rid of once you touch them. Why didn't I realize they were so difficult to deal with before!"

"The leaders of organizations that have survived safely to the present are not easy to deal with." Lian Jun comforted her, and then said, "Now that the alliance has been formed, you can take a break from now on. You have been too prominent before, so it's better to be more negative from now on. The alliance is just to buy time and environment for Wolf Spider to get over this period of time, so that Meng Qing and Qi Yun will not be so suspicious of you."

Lu Shan calmed down and listened to him carefully.

"You can retreat, but Meng Qing and Qi Yun won't dare to force you any further. When you are 'negative', Yuan Peng will definitely be active and take the initiative to contact Meng Qing and Qi Yun. Then Meng Qing and Qi Yun will naturally shift their attention away from you. Between Wolf Spider and Snake Fang, there is no doubt that Meng Qing and Qi Yun prefer Wolf Spider. Once they have Yuan Peng in check, they will definitely turn around and show their goodwill to you. You can then go with the flow, and the initiative and right of choice will be back in your hands."

After his analysis, Lu Shan's thoughts immediately became clear, and she became much more energetic. She said, "Okay, I'll do this. Too many things have happened recently, and I really need time to deal with internal affairs."

Lian Jun responded and prepared to hang up the phone.

"By the way, is your little boyfriend's birthday coming soon?" Lu Shan suddenly changed the subject.

Lian Jun paused after hanging up the phone, glanced at Shi Jin who was curled up on the sofa and reading documents attentively, and responded in a low voice.

Lu Shan breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, I remembered it correctly. It's a thank-you gift for you. I sent him a birthday present. Remember to receive it." After speaking, she hung up the phone.

Lian Jun repeated the word "birthday present" in his mind, put down the phone, glanced at Shi Jin again, and moved the wheelchair over. Shi Jin

was unaware of it and was concentrating on reviewing documents. Since he got Lian Jun's recognition, he would try his best to help Lian Jun deal with some of the more trivial and basic work every weekend when he came back from vacation. In the first two weeks, he occasionally made mistakes, which made Lian Jun spend more time to help him check and correct them. In the past two weeks, he has gradually become proficient in the work and rarely makes mistakes.

The more he handles these documents, the more he realizes one thing - Lian Jun needs an assistant to help him "reduce the burden", but... Shi Jin finished reviewing the documents in his hand, picked up the next document with the Ruixing mark, and sighed.

But whether it is Mie's transformation or the business integration between Mie and Ruixing, this part of the affairs is not suitable for too many people to know. Lian Jun is not without an assistant, his assistant is Gua Yi, but Gua Yi has a lot of other things to do.

It's too hard, no wonder it's so difficult for Lian Jun to gain weight.

"What are you thinking about?"

The back of his head was suddenly touched.

Shi Jin was startled, turned his head to look at Lian Jun, glanced at his hand, saw that he didn't have a mobile phone, and asked: "Have you finished talking with Aunt Lu?"

"Yeah. Take a break. Do you want to go somewhere? I'll take you out to play tomorrow." Lian Jun took the document from his hand, and then remembered that Shi Jin often did this to him in the past. He suddenly felt distressed, so he simply stood up and sat down next to Shi Jin, and hugged him in his arms. Shi Jin

leaned against him, stretched his waist comfortably, and said: "No, the cold air has been getting more and more severe recently, I don't want to go out and freeze."

"We can go to a place with heating indoors, such as the movie we went to in the summer—"

Shi Jin raised his hand and covered his mouth, saying seriously: "You can't go to crowded places. It's so cold outside now, and there must be a lot of people with colds and fevers. What if you get infected when you go out? Uncle Long said that you are now at an important stage of physical conditioning. As long as you get through it safely and without any accidents, you can officially take medicine. We must be careful."

The formal use of medicine was the conclusion given by Uncle Long after studying Lian Jun's examination results for a week after he had a physical examination last time. When Shi Jin first learned the news, he was so happy that he rushed to the school playground and ran several laps. Not only him, but everyone in the club was also very excited. Gua Er and his friends were so excited that they almost tore down the club.

After that, everyone paid extra attention to Lian Jun's daily life, trying not to let him get tired or sick. In addition to picking up Shi Jin from school every week, everyone tried to prevent Lian Jun from going out as much as possible, and was very careful.

Lian Jun was worried and helpless, so he pulled down his hand and held it, saying, "Don't be so nervous, I'm not that fragile." Shi Jin

looked at him disapprovingly, and was about to say something else when his cell phone suddenly rang. He took out his cell phone and saw that it was Liu Yong calling, so he picked it up.

"Shi Jin, do you want to go out and play tomorrow? You ran away as soon as school was over again today, and I didn't have time to tell you that Luo Donghao found a great real-life gunfighting club. Let's go out and relax!"

Liu Yong's tone was very excited, and his voice was a little high. Lian Jun was very close to Shi Jin, so he could hear his words a little clearly. Hearing the invitation, Lian Jun frowned at first, then thought about it.

Real-life gunfighting is an activity that Shi Jin would like. If Shi Jin wants to go, he might ask Gua Yi and the others to go and play with Shi Jin for a day...

Shi Jin refused without hesitation: "No, I have to accompany my boyfriend. You guys go and play, wait for next time..."

"Next time again, you are a guy who values ​​women over friends. You always say next time, next time. Forget it, see you at school on Sunday." Liu Yong was jealous and envious. He deliberately pretended to be angry and hung up the phone. Shi Jin

rejected him so many times that he was actually a little embarrassed. He raised his hand to touch his nose and put the phone back into his trouser pocket.

Lian Jun was silent for a few seconds, then hugged his arm tightly and said, "You can go out and play. Guajiu and the others are watching me here. It's okay. If you keep rejecting friends like this, they will distance themselves from you."

Young people under the age of 20, how can they stay at home every day during the holidays without going out to play? Although he was a little reluctant and concerned, he didn't want Shi Jin to sacrifice his social life and life for him.

"No, Donghao and Liu Yong are not such stingy people." Shi Jin turned over and hugged his waist, relaxed his body and pressed on him, closed his eyes with satisfaction, "My eyes are sore from reading documents, I'll take a nap, then we'll take a shower and go to bed, and you are not allowed to be busy with work anymore."

Lian Jun looked down at him, although he knew he was trying to change the subject, he still couldn't bear to continue to tease him, changed to a comfortable position to hug him, and accompanied him to close his eyes and take a nap.

...

The next day, the club was bustling early in the morning. After getting up, Shi Jin stood in the small living room in confusion, looking at Gua Er and others holding various decorations, and asked, "What are you doing?" "

Preparing a birthday party for you." Gua Er replied, frowning and twisting the long balloon in his hand, explaining, "Your birthday this year happens to be on Wednesday, and we can't rush to your school to celebrate for you, so we just moved up the birthday party."

"Young Master Jun said that everyone has been too busy recently, so it's nice to take this opportunity to liven up the party." Gua Jiu, who was dismantling the colored lights, added that when he saw that Gua Er couldn't even handle a balloon, he simply reached out to help him puncture the balloon.

Gua Er was hit in the face by the balloon, and was stunned for a moment. He got so angry that he stood up and pinched Gua Jiu's neck. Gua Jiu dodged flexibly and stabbed Gua Er's eyes with his backhand. The two of them started to quarrel childishly.

Gua San and Gua Wu looked at the two with indescribable expressions. Gua Yi stepped forward and hit each of them mercilessly, then looked at Shi Jin and said, "They are a little too excited. Don't worry about them. Uncle Long has changed Jun Shao's training program today. You should go to have breakfast quickly. Everyone will gather at the gun gym later."

Gun gym? Shi Jin was puzzled. Does the gun gym have any programs suitable for physical training?

...

An hour later, in the gun gym's simulated battle map, Shi Jin stood in front of Lian Jun with a gun, nervously and excitedly alert to the outside - he never thought that he would actually fight side by side with Lian Jun one day, and his opponent was Gua Yi and the others!

That's right, Uncle Long was merciful enough to change Lian Jun's training content this time, and let him play in the gun gym. Although the time was only three short hours, he almost fainted with happiness just by seeing Lian Jun standing and walking beside him with a gun.

"Master Jun, I will protect you!" Shi Jin said firmly, and the stronger his fighting spirit, the calmer his expression.

Lian Jun raised the corner of his mouth slightly, adjusted the gun in his hand, and asked: "Do you want to win?"

"Yes!" Shi Jin nodded without hesitation. The loser this time would be responsible for washing the dishes. How could he let Lian Jun wash the dishes!

"Then don't treat me as someone who needs protection." Lian Jun observed the surrounding environment, walked to a blind spot and sat down, motioning Shi Jin to come over, "I am your comrade-in-arms, will you listen to my command today?"

Shi Jin looked at Lian Jun in a black combat uniform, calm and confident of victory, his heart beating fast. He bent down flexibly, passed through obstacles, squatted beside him, and nodded vigorously: "Okay, today you are my captain, and I am your soldier."

Lian Jun's eyes moved, raised his hand to press the back of his head, leaned over and kissed him.

In the viewing room, Gua Er covered his face in pain: "Mr. Jun, did you forget that there are cameras everywhere in the scenario simulation area?"

Gua San said expressionlessly: "No, Mr. Jun just forgot our existence."

Gua Er: "..."

The preparation time was over and the battle began. Gua Yi and Gua Jiu, as the enemy team, immediately stepped into the simulation map after receiving the starting signal, and cooperated tacitly. Gua Jiu was responsible for map analysis, and Gua Yi was responsible for surveying the surrounding situation.

Gua Er couldn't help but say with jealousy: "Why two-on-two? It would be better if we play four-on-four."

Gua San poured cold water on him: "There are only seven of us including Young Master Jun. How can we play four-on-four?"

"Then three-on-three is fine." Gua Er didn't ask for much and sold his teammates without hesitation, "Gua Jiu is just a computer programmer and his skills are too weak. Let him watch the game outside."

Gua San looked at him dimly and said, "Well, if we leave someone outside to watch the game, we can try three-on-three."

In the battlefield, Gua Jiu quickly analyzed the map and rushed to the best places to hide people with Gua Yi. On the other side, Shi Jin suddenly left Lian Jun and ran to a safe place.

"What is Shi Jin doing? Do you want to lure the enemy away and protect Young Master Jun?" Gua Wu asked.

Gua San looked carefully and said, "It's not impossible. After all, Young Master Jun is not very mobile and his skills are not good enough. If Shi Jin brings Young Master Jun with him, he won't be able to move freely when he fights Gua Yi and the others."

Gua Er put a cigarette in his mouth, leaned on the table and said, "Are you underestimating Young Master Jun? When we went to practice shooting, we lost to Young Master Jun many times."

Gua San and Gua Wu were stunned when they heard this. They remembered the distant past when Lian Jun was still healthy, and their expressions darkened. Then they remembered the results of Lian Jun's physical examination some time ago, and their eyes slowly relaxed again - it's okay, Young Master Jun will recover soon, and the future is more promising than the past.

Five minutes after the battle began, Shi Jin and Gua Yi met in a narrow road at the corner of a residential building. Shi Jin immediately dodged into a civilian house to avoid him. Gua Yi and Gua Jiu followed suit and chased him, one blocking the front door and the other blocking the back door.

"It's over, Shi Jin is trapped." Gua Er frowned.

"Jun Shao has moved." Gua San suddenly spoke. Gua Er looked at the green dot representing Lian Jun and the surveillance camera in the corner where Lian Jun was. As expected, Lian Jun had moved, and his speed was... quite fast.

Gua Wu was a little worried: "Is it okay for Jun Shao to jog so fast?"

Gua Er suppressed his worries and said, "It's okay, right? If there is a problem, Uncle Long will interrupt them in time." He pointed to the direction of another viewing room.

The battle on the map continued. Shi Jin began to play hide-and-seek in the civilian house, looking like he was struggling to his death. Guayi and Guajiu were very cautious. Even so, they did not approach Shi Jin rashly. They repeatedly tried to force him out from behind the cover.

Finally, after a few minutes, the scope of Shi Jin's activities became smaller and smaller under the pressure of Guayi and Guajiu, and he had to run out. Guayi seized the opportunity and leaned forward to shoot Shi Jin who had revealed his body. As a result, there was a sound of breaking wind behind him, and the hat on his head was hit instead. The sensor sounded and he was eliminated directly. Guayi

was stunned for a moment, put down the gun and stood up straight, looking at Lian Jun who came out from the corner behind him, took off his hat and asked: "Jun Shao, how did you break through Guajiu's defense and hide there?"

Ding.

On the other side, Guajiu was also eliminated by Shi Jin who suddenly shot him back at the same time.

"Thanks to Shi Jin," Lian Jun replied with a proud tone, "He disturbed you very well. Your attention was all on him, and he made you pay too much attention to the details, which created a blind spot and allowed me to take advantage of it."

Gua Yi thought of Jin's deliberate darting behavior in a small area just now, and immediately realized where he lost. He raised his hand and knocked his forehead in frustration.

In the viewing room, Gua Er and others were all stunned. In fact, before Gua Yi was shot, they all thought that Gua Yi and Gua Jiu would definitely win this battle. After all, even if Lian Jun rushed over to rescue Jin later, the two of them would most likely not be able to break through the blockade and encirclement of Gua Yi and Gua Jiu.

Unexpectedly, when Lian Jun got close to the houses, he did not hide and observe the situation as they thought, but rushed directly to the houses. As if he had known where Gua Jiu and Gua Yi were, he relied on his not very flexible body movements to seize the opportunity to deceive Gua Jiu and sneak behind Gua Yi. After standing still, he aimed at Gua Yi's position without hesitation. In the second when Gua Yi stuck his head out, he shot and eliminated the opponent, giving Shi Jin a chance to catch his breath and let Shi Jin have the opportunity to kill Gua Jiu who was chasing from another direction.

They had a God's perspective, so they saw clearly that the reason why Lian Jun and Shi Jin were able to win this battle was all due to Shi Jin's perfect escape and Lian Jun's unexpected sneak approach, as well as the two people's cooperation to the second. The reason why Lian Jun was able to deceive Gua Jiu and sneak behind Gua Yi was...

Gua San reached out and rewound the process of Lian Jun approaching the house, and played it again in slow motion.

In the picture, Lian Jun approached the house, and then cut into the side of the house at a not very fast speed. Gua Jiu was standing at the position where he could actually see Lian Jun, but he didn't care. Yes, he didn't care, because after Lian Jun approached the battlefield, he quickly adjusted his state and imitated Gua Yi's behavior pattern and footsteps, making Gua Jiu mistakenly think that the person running over was Gua Yi. The real Gua Yi was just a little ahead of Lian Jun at the time and surrounded Shi Jin. He was always sharp, but he didn't realize that there was an "enemy" sneaking in behind him.

When cooperating with familiar people, distinguishing between friend and foe sometimes depends on footsteps, breath and behavior habits. The scene where Lian Jun pretended to be Gua Yi and tricked Gua Jiu into sneaking into the encirclement was simply horrifying to those who often cooperated with Gua Jiu.

"Jun Shao knows us too well." Gua Er said, biting the mouthpiece hard, "I think Gua Jiu will have a nightmare tonight." Sending the "enemy" behind his comrades for no reason was not a pleasant experience at all. But I really want to fight Jun Shao, he added silently in his heart, looking at Gua San and Gua Wu with fear, and making a plan in his heart - Gua Yi and Gua Jiu have played a round, and it should be his turn in the next round.

A quarter of an hour later, Gua Er was left alone in the viewing room. He looked at the two sides that had already formed their three-on-three battle formations and slammed the table in anger. "What do you mean Gua Jiu must stay on the battlefield to balance the power? You guys who have been contaminated by wolf spiders are actually banding together to squeeze me out!"

Inside the field, Shi Jin happily helped Lian Jun organize his protective gear and asked, "How are we going to fight this time?"

Lian Jun looked at his excited look, touched his leg inconspicuously, glanced at the newly joined Gua San, and said, "Gua Yi and Gua Wu are calm, and Gua Jiu is good at information gathering. They are not the kind of people who will take risks casually. Most of them will choose positional warfare. We will do the opposite of them and fight guerrilla warfare."

"I like guerrilla warfare!" Shi Jin became more excited after hearing this, and asked, "Should we start by analyzing the enemy's personality and behavior patterns?"

Lian Jun touched his face and responded with a smile.

Gua San huddled in a corner, listening to Lian Jun talking about the weaknesses of Gua Yi and others one by one, and he deeply understood one thing in his heart - it would not end well to be an enemy of Jun Shao, who knew them very well and wanted to make his lover happy.

...

Shi Jin had a very happy birthday this year. Lian Jun leaned against the head of the bed and looked at him, who couldn't help but smile even in his sleep. He gently touched his face, bent down and kissed his forehead.

Next year, he should be able to play with Shi Jin to his heart's content with anything he wanted to play.

"Happy birthday." He whispered and turned off the bedside lamp.

...

Before returning to school on Sunday, Shi Jin received a birthday present from Lu Shan - a large box that was half a person's height.

Everyone unpacked the box together, and then after seeing the various packaging boxes piled up like garbage in the box, everyone was silent - as expected of Lu Shan, she was still so "casual" when giving gifts.

"Clear out the things." Lian Jun ordered.

Everyone came back to their senses. Gua Er was the first to reach out to the box, picked up the large colorful box on the top, shook it and said, "This is a specialty of Province G and Taiwan. When did Lu Shan become so like an ordinary middle-aged aunt? She actually gave me this."

Gua Jiu also picked up a box and said, "This is the flagship game console produced by XX Company, and there are still several of them. Shi Jin, have you told Senior Lu that you like games?"

Shi Jin, who only plays mahjong, shook his head silently.

"Does this mean that Shi Jin can share the fun of games with his good friends?" Gua Er also leaned over to look at the downstream video game machine, then withdrew his gaze without much interest and continued to count the things in the box, "Safety lock, customized tea set, ordinary cash red envelopes, ordinary check red envelopes, XX star's signed sneakers, XX singer's commemorative album, a lot of game discs... Did she prepare all the money and things that a child of Shi Jin's age might like and send them to him? Wait, what is this?"

He took out a rectangular wooden box from the bottom of the box that was beautifully and solidly packaged. He didn't see the name of the product on it, so he touched it in confusion, and after getting Shi Jin's permission, he opened the box.

A set of mahjong tiles made of white jade was revealed.

Everyone: “…”

“…It’s worthy of being a gift prepared by the wolf spider leader, it’s very sincere.” Gua Er closed the box and handed it to Shi Jin, “Here, you can keep it as a family heirloom. If I’m not mistaken, the patterns and words on the card seem to be all customized by someone.”

Shi Jin: “…” This gift is really sincere.

He turned his head to look at Lian Jun and asked silently.

Lian Jun held his hand and soothed him, “Take it, I will thank Aunt Lu for you.” Shi Jin

nodded, then took the box and put it aside alone.

Shi Jin returned to school with a lot of gifts that he had nowhere to put and a small birthday cake. He called Liu Yong and Luo Donghao, ate the cake with them, and then stuffed them with a bunch of gifts that he couldn’t use.

He thought that the birthday gift craze of this year had passed, but he didn't expect that this was the beginning of a real nightmare. Since Monday, he has been repeatedly called out by the guards at the school gate - to receive couriers. The

first gift that came was from Xiang Aoting. He returned to the Air Force and had a lot of handover procedures to go through. He didn't have time to come and celebrate with Shi Jin in person, so he sent the gifts to Shi Jin by express delivery. The gifts he sent were several out-of-print gun models, including a scaled custom model of the mini gun that Shi Jin used. Shi Jin liked it very much.

Because it was a gun model, the security guards re-opened the package and checked it before entering the school gate. Only after confirming that it was harmless did they let Shi Jin take it away, which caused a bit of a commotion at the school gate.

Although Shi Jin felt a little annoyed by being watched, he was still pleasantly surprised. Among the brothers in the Shi family, he had the best impression of Xiang Aoting, and he was very happy to receive birthday wishes from him.

Then that afternoon, when he was called out by the guard again and faced with more than ten express parcels sent from abroad by Fei Yujing, he was not happy at all.

The courier boy had a loud voice and said while sorting out the list: "I advise you to find a small cart. This pile is all express parcels for you. You can't carry them all by hand, and you can't move them. There is a box in it that seems to be full of books. It's so heavy that it's tiring to move it." Shi

Jin: "..."
