The Mid-Autumn Festival holiday ended in one day, and I returned to school the next day.
Although most of the school rules of Linchuan Middle School are very different from those of other schools, there are also some similarities, such as having to do morning exercises.
It's said that if you sit in the classroom all day, your butt will probably be welded to the chair. So, there should be a fixed time for students to get out and exercise. That's why the morning exercises were kept.
"Wenmo, what's wrong with you today? Why do you look so distracted?"
Standing in front of Wen Mo, Qin Zhou would occasionally glance back. His fluffy hair swayed with his morning exercises, making him look particularly comical.
"Think about other things."
On the surface, Wen Mo was doing his morning exercises obediently, but his mind was already far away, preoccupied with the birth date he had seen yesterday.
This girl's birthday is almost here and she didn't even tell me.
"What could possibly make you think so hard? I don't think you're this focused when you're doing homework," Qin Zhou replied in a low voice, his lewd smile never fading.
"I'm thinking about how to celebrate a girl's birthday."
Hearing Wen Mo's words, Xiang Xiaonan, who was standing next to him, also leaned closer, pricking up her ears with curiosity, "Whose birthday is it? Let me hear too!"
"Stay away! We're doing exercises, don't get so close, you might hit me." Wen Mo waved his hand dismissively.
Soon it was time for the jumping exercise, and unsurprisingly, almost all the students chose to dawdle during this part, jumping crookedly and awkwardly, and some were too lazy to even jump.
The exercise formation gradually turned into a zombie siege.
However, Xiang Xiaonan jumped very energetically, like a wild rabbit running around, able to leap from here to the next team.
"You're still as neurotic as ever," Wen Mo remarked.
"Huh? What?"
"It's okay, I was just praising your energy."
"Is that so? Thank you!" Xiang Xiaonan happily continued jumping until she finally stopped to rest for a while, panting, and asked, "You were talking about Wen Mo celebrating a girl's birthday, and then what?"
Wen Mo frowned slightly, unsure how to describe it, and simply shook his head in distress, "I haven't decided what gift to give or what cake to buy."
Moreover, it's a separate birthday celebration for the two of them; if things don't go well, the atmosphere could be incredibly awkward.
Imagine messing things up, then being stared at by Xia Lian's already lifeless eyes, and then being finished off with a frown and the sarcastic remark: "Is this... performance art? Whatever makes Wen Mo happy..."
That kind of thing is unacceptable! I'd rather just jump off a building right there and then...
"What's so difficult about that? Let me teach you!"
Qin Zhou smiled confidently, as if he had everything under control.
"When did you become so amazing? Tell me about it." Wen Mo was a little interested. Although his best friend was usually quite irresponsible, he might be a little useful in situations like this.
"You're quite forgetful. Have you forgotten that we actually celebrated a girl's birthday before?"
Who is it?
Qin Zhou gestured to the side with his chin, "Xiao Nan."
Is she considered a girl?
Looking at Xiang Xiaonan, who was moving like a rabbit beside him, Wen Mo couldn't associate her with a girl for a moment, including when he first met her a couple of years ago.
At that time, Xiang Xiaonan's hair was cut very short, about ear-length. Because of her lively and outgoing personality, she got along well with many boys and was quite popular among the girls.
To be honest, she grew her hair long in her final year of high school and became much prettier, which shocked many of the boys in her class. They were surprised to learn that Xiang Xiaonan, who they usually treated like a brother, was actually so beautiful.
Seeing this, Wen Mo twitched his lips, suddenly realizing that what he had said earlier was quite harsh. "Okay, I apologize, she is indeed a girl."
If it were a different book, Xiang Xiaonan could probably be the female lead, the kind of story where a tomboy confesses to her best friend and they end up dating.
"Huh? What are you two talking about?" Xiang Xiaonan jumped back.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to compliment you on how pretty you are."
"Really? Thank you!" she said happily, only turning off the engine completely after the jumping exercise was over.
Once Xiang Xiaonan regained her strength, she rejoined their conversation, her big eyes sparkling, "Where were we?"
Wen Mo and Qin Zhou exchanged glances, suddenly realizing that the girl's opinion was quite valuable. After hesitating for a few seconds, Wen Mo spoke first:
"Xiao Nan, if someone gave you a gift, what would you want it to be? Something that would really touch your heart."
Xiang Xiaonan winked, and almost without thinking, she subconsciously smiled and replied, "Anything is fine! I cherish gifts from friends! It's the thought that counts!"
Covering his mouth, Wen Mo silently gave her a thumbs up in his heart. What a good girl.
Then, turning his attention to Qin Zhou, he asked casually, though he didn't really intend to offer any advice, "And you, what do you want most?"
Qin Zhou thought hard, and after a while, he nodded seriously, "If someone accidentally put 10,000 yuan in my pocket, I would be very touched."
Very well, I knew asking was pointless.
It was only then that Wenmo realized that none of his friends were even remotely normal.
"Hey, relax. To be honest, birthday gifts depend on how much you like the other person. If you like them enough, you can give them anything!" Qin Zhou patted his shoulder with a half-comforting smile and gave him an affirming smile.
To be honest, although Qin Zhou is a rather abstract person, he can occasionally come up with a few insightful remarks, such as Wen Mo's statement just now, which I found very reasonable.
Thinking about it carefully, Xia Lian is a good girl, and she probably wouldn't accept overly expensive gifts, as you could tell when I bought her a phone last time.
"Qin Zhou, it turns out you can be human sometimes," Wen Mo remarked with a touch of inexplicable emotion.
"What?"
"It's okay. What gift do you think would best express my feelings?"
At this point, Qin Zhou raised an eyebrow, his smile conveying a subtle meaning, "Since the favorability rating is high enough, then of course... I'll pack myself up and send myself as a gift."
After saying that, he gave a lewd smile and a flirtatious wink.
Xiang Xiaonan scratched his head like a fool, clearly not understanding. Wen Mo nodded thoughtfully, and after thinking for a while, he laughed along with him.
"So? You think this is a great idea too, right?"
"Yeah, that's a great idea." Wenmer smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
"Of course!"
"So I'll give you a couple more kicks during the leg-kicking exercise later."
"Why?!"
