Chapter 347 Go to the B&B with the Counselor Again
The old-fashioned decorated cake on Chen Jieyu's table is hard to buy in Hangzhou in 2015.
Only old cake shops that have been in business for many years will continue to do this.
But in a few years, when the retro trend becomes popular, many cake shops will take the initiative to launch this style, and the number of people buying it will be countless.
Of course, by that time, the ingredients will definitely be better and the cream will have a more delicate taste. In fact, the taste will be different from when we were children.
For a few years, not to mention businesses, even some variety shows have been relying on the word "sentiment" to attract attention and make money.
Perhaps, this is also because these people who had no money when they were young have grown up and now have money in their pockets.
Chen Jieyu was looking at the small decorated cake, a little distracted.
When she was a child, before her younger brother was born, she always thought that families like hers did not buy cakes for children’s birthdays.
She often envies her classmates and friends, especially those who invite her to their birthday parties.
The cream cake is very beautiful, it looks very tempting and tastes very sweet.
Sometimes, she heard other children say to the child who was celebrating his birthday: "When it's my birthday, I'll invite you to my house to eat cake, too!"
Every time this happened, there would be slight ripples in Chen Jieyu's little inner world.
After my younger brother was born, my family started celebrating his birthday.
My dad bought all the cakes, and they were small decorated cakes like this.
My younger brother would sometimes cry and complain that the cake was too small.
But according to the man, he hates sweets the most, and his grandparents are too old to eat them.
You are just a kid of a few years old, it’s enough for you to eat the cake by yourself!
At that time, the little boy was very young, very greedy, and didn't know how to share.
Every time he blew out the candles, he would quickly eat up all the cake and still feel it was not enough.
A few years later, the little boy grew up a little and started to be a little more sensible. He would think about sharing some of the food with his sister and share the joy of his birthday.
But at that time, Concubine Chen was already quite old and she was no longer so craving for cake.
Besides, this isn't her birthday cake.
When she first came to Hangzhou, Chen Jieyu still didn't have the habit of celebrating her birthday.
To her, this was just an ordinary day, a day that one might even want to avoid.
Until one day, she passed by a ten-year-old shop on the street and saw this old-fashioned decorated cake. She inexplicably felt a strong desire to buy it.
She still wasn't used to celebrating her birthday and had never thought about celebrating one.
Perhaps, she just bought it for the little girl who once longed for it so much.
——Happy birthday to me.
In the early morning of January 2, on the sofa in the staff dormitory, Chen Jieyu opened the transparent cover of the decorated cake.
As is customary, she lit candles on the cake but did not make a wish.
Because many years ago, little Chen Jieyu did not have a cake on her birthday, let alone a wish-making session after lighting candles.
But since it is her birthday, and children always yearn for a better life and have many little wishes in their hearts, she will still make a wish silently on her birthday.
That's why she always lights her birthday candles and then blows them out after ten seconds.
The reason why she did all this in the early morning of her birthday was that after completing these processes, she would spend January 2 as an ordinary day.
However, today, she looked at the cake but was hesitant to put the candles on.
After a long while, the young urban woman wearing gold-rimmed glasses sighed slightly.
"People will indeed become more and more greedy, and have more and more expectations in their hearts," she thought.
Concubine Chen felt that Cheng Zhu probably didn't know that today was her birthday because she didn't mention it.
She really had no plans in mind and had never thought about celebrating her birthday with him.
But human nature is very contradictory and complex.
She still had some small expectations in her heart.
This expectation is called - what if?
There is a very good saying:
“【Once people have expectations, they will also have troubles.】”
In fact, Cheng Zhu naturally knew that this day was her birthday.
It’s so easy to find out someone’s birthday.
Take Chen Jieyu as an example, the last digit of her WeChat ID is 0102.
This is normal, and many people have this writing habit.
In addition, Computer Science Class 2 has its own WeChat group and class QQ group.
Because in those days, there were still many people who frequently used QQ on a daily basis, unlike later when more people used WeChat on a daily basis.
There is information on QQ, and Chen Jieyu’s QQ information also shows January 2nd.
So, he picked up his phone in the early morning and started sending WeChat messages.
"Are you asleep?" he asked.
After Chen Jieyu received the WeChat message, a glimmer of light appeared in her eyes behind her gold-rimmed glasses.
"Not yet." She replied immediately.
"It's so late today, why haven't you rested yet?" Cheng Zhu asked deliberately.
"Yeah." She just replied.
The dog man held his phone and muttered to himself: "Hey! How come they are all the same as Lin Lu, deliberately not telling me their birthdays!"
Good, good, good! You women are great!
You want to make things difficult for us men, right?
It’s a pity that it can’t defeat me!
He began typing: "Are you free tomorrow?"
"There is a meeting at school in the morning." Chen Jieyu replied.
The meaning is very clear, I am free except in the morning.
"Okay, then I'll pick you up tomorrow afternoon." Cheng Zhu typed.
"What are you going to do?"
"Let's eat. Do you remember the barbecue restaurant we went to for the first time? I haven't eaten there for a long time and I feel like eating there." Cheng Zhu even specially booked a small private room there.
Chen Jieyu looked at the screen of her mobile phone, recalling the scenes in the barbecue restaurant. She walked into her bedroom with her mobile phone and looked at the exquisite small wine pot and wine glasses given by the barbecue restaurant as a gift on the shelf.
"Okay." She agreed.
Although she had no plans to celebrate her birthday with Cheng Zhu, she was still very happy to go to the "old place" for dinner together today.
Or rather, she is quite content.
There's really nothing great about birthdays, but it's still nice to be able to spend life with him.
"Then go to bed early. I'm ready to go to bed too. See you tomorrow." Cheng Zhu sent a WeChat message.
"Okay, see you tomorrow, good night."
"Good night."
After putting down her phone, Chen Jieyu returned to the living room, looked at the decorated cake on the table, and finally put it in the refrigerator.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Concubine Chen did not ask Cheng Zhu to come to the staff dormitory to pick her up.
A date between two people is just like a secret relationship in school days. Most of the time, they have to avoid everyone's sight and be sneaky.
To be honest, Cheng Zhu found it quite interesting.
“Healthy love is important, but forbidden love is truly wonderful!” - Cheng Zhu.
Having an affair with your class counselor in college can bring you more than just physical pleasure.
Finally, he went to a barber shop to pick up the counselor. She had specially gone out to wash her hair today and had her hair curled, looking exquisite and beautiful.
Teacher Chen was still wearing a coat today, but it was not the one Cheng Zhu bought.
The barbecue restaurant was smoky and she didn't want her clothes to be stained by the smell.
This was the second time the two of them came to this barbecue restaurant to eat. Since then, Cheng Zhu never chose this restaurant again.
But you know what, a lot of memories were left in this small box.
At that time, Cheng Zhu happened to meet Chen Jieyu who was at her most vulnerable and collapsed. This bastard kept stabbing her heart while he was having dinner with her.
It was originally agreed that she would treat them, and they took her to such an expensive barbecue restaurant. Teacher Chen, who was already in an extremely tight financial situation, felt a lot of psychological pressure at first.
Halfway through the meal, he said to her: Many people say that they can't see the future, but in fact they can see the future.
For the counselor at that time, this sentence really broke her defense completely.
Not only does it ignore armor, it also deals fucking critical damage.
But now sitting in this box, Concubine Chen recalled these words, but she no longer felt the pain she felt at that moment.
She has no idea what her future will be like.
Because of Cheng Zhu's appearance and their current relationship, her life seemed to be taking a path she had never imagined before.
She was not sure what the scenery would be like if she continued down this road.
It's like a layer of fog has been cast over my future.
When she returned home that night, she also watched Stephen Chow's "The King of Comedy" on TV.
I just happened to see that line of dialogue.
"Hey, look how dark it is ahead. I can't see anything." Liu Piaopiao looked forward.
"Not really. It will be very beautiful after daybreak," said Yin Tianchou.
At this moment, while eating, the two of them were chatting as usual.
Cheng Zhu still had the same expression and didn't regard her as a teacher at all. Only when he wanted to tease her would he call her "Teacher Chen" and insist on calling her teacher.
Now, he calls her by her name more often.
This time, Cheng Zhu did not drink the special rice wine here. Concubine Chen was actually willing to have a sip, but when she saw that he had no intention of drinking it, she stopped drinking too.
After the meal, she insisted on paying the bill.
"What's the matter? When you came here for the first time, I agreed that you would pay, but I paid it in the end. Do you want to compensate me today?" Cheng Zhu said with a smile.
Chen Jieyu did not give a direct reply, but just said: "Anyway, let me buy it today."
Cheng Zhu looked at her and guessed, "Is it because it's your birthday today, so you're treating me to a meal?"
After the two got in the car, Cheng Zhu looked in the direction of the University of Science and Technology.
Chen Jieyu originally thought that she was only going to have a meal today, but when they were almost at the school, Cheng Zhu said, "Go upstairs and pack up, bring your overnight supplies, and stay with me today."
"Huh?" A look of surprise immediately appeared on the counselor's face.
In addition, there is still some discomfort.
Although the two had had sex several times, Cheng Zhu would later come to the staff dormitory on his own, and then the two of them would "let it happen naturally."
This was the first time we sat together like this and directly decided to go out for the night.
She still felt a little embarrassed.
This is indeed the process that occurs between men and women.
When some boys take the initiative to talk to girls about living outside for the first time, they may feel nervous and their hearts may beat wildly.
Of course, Cheng Zhuduo is shameless.
Chen Jieyu lowered her eyes slightly, and even had some suspicion in her heart: "You said you wanted me to come out for dinner, but could it be that this is what you really want to do?"
However, Cheng Zhu's next words made her turn her head and look at him.
He drove and said calmly, "I booked the room at the B&B we went to on our autumn outing."
