Chapter 354: Creating a Surprise Openly
Zeng Wenjie rummaged through Mu Qingyang's suitcase and matched her with a set of clothes that he thought was the most pleasing to the eye.
Mu Qingyang pouted and said, "It's not convenient to go out wearing this. Jeans are more convenient!"
Zeng Wenjie said, "If you don't listen to me, I'll knock your head off."
Then, Mu Qingyang changed his clothes obediently.
Moreover, she really achieved the effect that Zeng Wenjie wanted. She looked like a little princess, with a Korean style that was sweet and royal.
Xiao Mu's long legs are really suitable for pleated skirts.
"That's right, this is what we should wear today!" Zeng Wenjie snapped his fingers and said.
"Why do you have to wear this today?" Mu Qingyang couldn't help but ask.
"Grandma's birthday!" Zeng Wenjie said, "Shouldn't you dress up a little nicer?"
"Ah... then grandma should be dressed more beautifully!" Mu Qingyang was stunned, then replied.
Zeng Wenjie looked at her helplessly. Apparently, this silly girl had actually forgotten her own birthday and even believed this nonsense!
But Zeng Wenjie didn't say anything. He took her to the noodle shop and asked her grandmother to boil two bowls of rice noodles for her, and then drove to the county town to buy a cake.
Cake, this thing...
Zeng Wenjie doesn’t like to eat it, and no one in his family likes to eat it either, as they all think it’s too greasy.
But if there is no cake on my birthday, I always feel like something is missing.
Mu Qingyang didn't wear any makeup today. If she put on makeup with this outfit, Zeng Wenjie felt that she would be leaving no room for other women.
So, just go for a natural look, and you don’t have to worry about smearing makeup and being difficult to wash off when you smear cake on her face.
"What gift should I buy for my grandma?" Mu Qingyang couldn't help thinking while sitting in the car.
"We just need to buy a cake and a bouquet of flowers," said Zeng Wenjie.
"Isn't it too simple?" Mu Qingyang asked.
"Well, just listen to me." Zeng Wenjie said.
Mu Qingyang had no choice but to nod. She was not very familiar with the county town, and she only knew the area around the park where they played chess.
"Here comes the place where you throw the gold!"
Mu Qingyang suddenly pointed happily at a road sign not far away and said.
"I remember it very clearly."
Zeng Wenjie nodded, praised, and touched the long white legs as a reward.
After arriving at the county town, passing by the park, Mu Qingyang stretched out his hand and pointed in that direction, saying, "Grandpa often took me to play chess there. Sometimes, if the weather was bad, we would play in the small teahouse next to it."
Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but shook his head and smiled. It was hard to imagine that Mu Qingyang, who just turned 19 today, could actually play with a group of old guys!
I went to the cake shop to pick up the cake, and then went to the flower shop to get a big bunch of roses.
"Are you Zeng Wenjie?" the flower shop owner couldn't help but ask.
"Hello, hello, it's me." Zeng Wenjie nodded and said.
The proprietress smiled and said, "I know you. My husband tells me about you every day. He says you are the proudest student he has ever taught."
Zeng Wenjie was stunned and asked, "Who is your husband?"
The proprietress smiled and said, "The principal of No. 1 Middle School, Qian Liang."
Mu Qingyang was looking at the flowers in the flower shop. After hearing the conversation between the two, the corners of his mouth curled up and he was very happy.
"So you are Principal Qian's wife. Hello, hello!" Zeng Wenjie said with a smile.
By the way, he was a tough guy who went to the principal's office for tea every now and then.
The head teacher often complained that he couldn't control him, and the principal had some friendship with my uncle Wu Hongwu, so he could only take him to the office for ideological education.
The lady boss said, "These flowers are for you. You don't have to pay for them. You have brought honor to our family."
Zeng Wenjie said politely, "Let's put it this way. The money still has to be paid."
The proprietress glanced at Mu Qingyang and asked with a smile, "Your girlfriend? Are these flowers for her?"
After hearing this, Mu Qingyang immediately turned around and smiled: "Auntie, you have a good eye. You can tell at a glance that I am his girlfriend!"
The proprietress gave Zeng Wenjie a thumbs up and said, "Amazing! Even your girlfriend is so pretty and lively."
lively?
This word had never happened to Mu Qingyang before.
"Yes, yes, Zeng Wenjie, do you want to buy me flowers?" Mu Qingyang asked excitedly.
"Send, send, send..." Zeng Wenjie said perfunctorily.
Mu Qingyang curled his lips in obvious unhappiness, turned around silently, and continued to admire the flowers in the flower shop.
Yes, today's flowers are for grandma, I can't be greedy...
However, if he could buy me one, even just one, I would be very happy!
The proprietress said to Zeng Wenjie, "When are you free? Come to our house for a meal."
Zeng Wenjie said, "Okay, I'll try to come visit you and Principal Qian as soon as possible."
After loading the flowers into the car, Zeng Wenjie prepared to return to Baishui Town.
"You're quite famous now!" Mu Qingyang fastened his seat belt and said with a smile.
"It's actually a problem for me that someone as handsome as me is so famous! I'm really afraid that when I'm in my sophomore and junior years, a bunch of schoolgirls will come to our dormitory every now and then to play guitar and confess their love to me." Zeng Wenjie pretended to be depressed.
Mu Qingyang thought about the scene and found it quite funny. He couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh.
However, Zeng Wenjie was destined not to enjoy such treatment. Given the existence of Xiao Mu, which girl would be bold enough to confess her love to Zeng Wenjie in Fengyuan?
"Then I'll go and cheer them on." Mu Qingyang clenched his fist and said.
"Xiao Mu, you have become much more cheerful. You are no longer as withdrawn as you were at the beginning of the school year," said Zeng Wenjie.
When Mu Qingyang heard this, he was stunned.
After a moment, she smiled and said, "Perhaps, this is how I should have been these years."
Zeng Wenjie nodded slightly and said, "Then continue to be cheerful. You are the cutest like this."
“Okay!”
Mu Qingyang agreed straightforwardly, thinking that it didn't matter if he didn't receive the flowers from Zeng Wenjie today.
A thought suddenly flashed through her mind: Did she forget something important?
But, I can’t seem to remember it no matter how hard I try.
Over the years, she has lived a lonely and isolated life, and her life has been very depressed.
And she deliberately forgot about her birthday.
If Zeng Wenjie hadn't mentioned it, she wouldn't have remembered it at all, perhaps until a month or two later, when she would suddenly think - oh, it turns out my birthday had already passed!
I took the cake and flowers back home and put them in Mu Qingyang's room first.
"Don't say it out loud. Keep it mysterious so that you can create a surprise." Zeng Wenjie said to Mu Qingyang with a smile.
"Hmm, hmm, hmm!" Mu Qingyang nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice, looking very obedient.
Zeng Wenjie looked at her silly look and couldn't help but find it funny, so he couldn't help but reach out and ruffle her hair.
It turns out that being open and aboveboard can also create surprises!
