"Sweet."
Ji Yuzhi's face appeared on the screen.
"Your dark circles are amazing!" Zhen Tian exclaimed, jumping out of bed in surprise. "It's only been a few days since I last saw you, how come you look so tired?"
"No, the light seems to be..."
"You're kidding me. Do you think I'm stupid? Emphasizing lighting when you're talking to a girl? Don't you know how much we know about photography?"
Zhen Tian glared at Ji Yuzhi reproachfully.
"Alright, alright." Ji Yuzhi chuckled, no longer pretending; he had indeed been very tired these past few days. His fingers unconsciously touched his forehead, giving it a gentle squeeze. "Tomorrow is your birthday, but I won't be able to be with you this year."
"Then you have to make it up to me when you come back."
"Okay, I'll make it up for you."
"Mmm, I want to go to the movies with you. That suspense movie lately has been getting rave reviews. It's just that it'll be taken off the screens by the time you come back."
"Oh, and you have to come with me to eat that boiled fish restaurant. We haven't had boiled fish in H City for ages."
"Also, I want a big bear to keep at home, will you buy it for me..."
"Okay, I promise you everything."
Ji Yuzhi watched as Zhen Tian's little mouth kept opening and closing, and she made so many requests in such a short time. He couldn't help but want to laugh.
"You owe me a birthday gift, and you have to make up for it with this much?"
“Of course.” Zhen Tian glared at him again: “Birthdays are different from other holidays. It’s meaningless if you don’t celebrate it on the day itself. So the compensation should be substantial.”
"And you have to give me lots more kisses. We haven't seen each other for half a year, and if we kiss once a day, that's 182 kisses."
"I'll make it up to you all at once?" Ji Yuzhi teased her deliberately.
"Hmm...that might be a bit troublesome, let's take our time to finish it." Zhen Tian even thought about it for a moment.
“Okay…” Ji Yuzhi agreed without hesitation: “I’ll give you all of them, as many as you want.”
"Mmm..." Zhen Tian lay back down again: "I still want to see you. You're not going to surprise me or anything, are you? You're going to my second brother's studio tomorrow."
She specifically gave Ji Yuzhi her address.
"I'm sorry, I wanted to surprise you too, but it's really not possible." This was the first time Ji Yuzhi hadn't celebrated Zhen Tian's birthday. He felt incredibly guilty for breaking up something he had been doing for over a decade.
"It's okay, I was just saying it to cheer myself up." Zhen Tian pouted, "I know you can't. If you could, you would definitely come back to me immediately, right?"
"Yes. Immediately, without hesitation."
"That's enough."
Zhen Tian stuck out her tongue and laughed: "I still miss you a lot, not just looking at the screen."
“You’re going to be gone for six months, and there are still 45 days left. I’ve already made it through 135 days. I’m not afraid of another 40 days.”
"When we get back this time, how about I take you on a trip?" Ji Yuzhi's mind raced. "I get one chance a year to travel abroad for personal reasons. This time I'll take you to Thailand. Don't you like the food there?"
"Really?" Zhen Tian's eyes lit up: "I want to eat curry crab, coconut ice, and pineapple rice."
"I'll let you eat your fill then."
"Okay, okay, I'll wait for you to come back and then we'll go."
"Okay, I promise you this time, I'll definitely have a good time with you." Ji Yuzhi's eyes were full of heartache. In the end, he was selfish for once, making Zhen Tian suffer for so long for the sake of his little pursuit.
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
Zhen Tian bit her lower lip, her heart filled with anticipation.
When I checked the time again, it was already late at night.
"Go to sleep and get some rest. Don't miss me too much." Zhen Tian couldn't help but chuckle at the end.
"Yeah, I don't miss you."
"You can't completely stop thinking about it; you still have to think about it a little bit."
"I don't know how to handle that little bit..." Ji Yuzhi pretended to be troubled: "How about I just miss you a lot?"
"That's okay..."
Zhen Tian smiled foolishly.
Sleep well, goodnight.
Goodnight, Zhizhi.
...
"Sisters, sisters, wake up!!!"
Zhen Tian was woken up early in the morning by a crazy woman.
"Hmm...who is it..." She pulled the blanket over her head: "I'm so sleepy."
"It's me! Your ultimate super beauty has arrived!" Ye Qingyan pulled back Zhen Tian's blanket. "Aren't you excited to see me, sister?"
Zhen Tian half-opened one eye, still half-asleep: "Qingyan."
"It's me! I've been released. Aren't you happy?"
"Hey...you're done with your closed training?"
“Yeah, I’m incredibly talented, I got liberated early.” Ye Qingyan pulled over a stool from Zhen Tian’s dressing table and sat down next to Zhen Tian’s bed. “I only just realized how talented I am in music. Hahahaha…”
"My teacher said I'm the next genius."
"Hahahahaha..."
Zhen Tian was completely jolted awake by her laughter.
"I rushed back from the middle of my tour to celebrate your birthday. Aren't you touched?"
"Get up and get ready, I'll take you shopping!"
"I dare not move, I dare not move." Zhen Tian happily hugged Ye Qingyan, then looked at her with a troubled expression: "But what should I do? I have to go to work with my uncle."
"What's with all this work? Working on your birthday? Don't you have any humanity?!"
"Who said I'm inhuman? How am I inhuman?" Lu Yinuo's voice came from outside the door: "Tian Tian, may I come in?"
"Can."
Only after hearing the reply did Lu Yinuo open Zhen Tian's door.
"I came here on orders, okay?" Lu Yinuo said, clutching her bank card. "How could we possibly forget our little princess's birthday?"
"Uncle..."
"So, your second brother said you don't need to go today. You can have fun, and everyone will come to celebrate your birthday tonight." Lu Yinuo waved the card in her hand. "And, oh, I also thoughtfully went to visit all your brothers and uncles and got this card that smells like money."
"Here, take this and use it." Lu Yinuo handed the bank card to Zhen Tian.
"I have money..." Zhen Tian said, and readily took the card.
"Is this what they mean by saying one thing but doing another?" Lu Yinuo teased her.
"I told you I didn't want it, but you wouldn't listen." Zhen Tian smiled and put the card away. "Besides, I need to save money to support my family."
"Then what's the point of keeping Ji Yuzhi around?"
"Warm the bed." Ye Qingyan continued, laughing heartily, "The main thing is, do you know that in the 21st century there's a high-tech thing called WeChat and WeChat transfer? Going out to collect it is such a hassle."
Lu Yinuo felt like an idiot when she thought about waiting in Zhen Yan's office, Lu Kai's office, and Zhen Yan and Lu Xian's offices for everyone to transfer money to this card.
Not only are they idiots, but all these men are idiots.
Why didn't anyone remind him?
"Speaking of which, you guys went straight to processing bank card transactions without saying a word. How many bank cards have you applied for?"
