Chapter 291 Birthday Gift



Pei Sui took out a black round-neck sweatshirt from the cloakroom and gave it to Meng Sheng. "Wear this for now."

Meng Sheng nodded, took the clothes and put them on.

The dress was just thigh-length, but very loose, and looked as if it could fit another person like her.

Although she is so tall, she is very thin.

Pei Sui helped her roll up her sleeves and asked, "Do you want me to carry you in?"

"No, no."

Pei Sui raised his eyelids slightly to look at her, his lips curled slightly, and nodded, "Okay. What happened last night... do you need me to explain?"

Meng Sheng was slightly stunned.

explain?

Is it because she was drunk last night?

Although she was drunk last night, she was conscious at certain points in the process, which is why she remembers it so clearly now.

In that case, then it is a matter of mutual consent.

They had already confirmed their relationship as a couple, so there was nothing to explain, and no explanation was needed.

She shook her head, "No, I remember everything."

Pei Sui's beating heart completely calmed down because of her words.

He squeezed her palm and said in a hoarse voice, "There are brand new toiletries in the cabinet on the upper right side of the sink. You can use my mouthwash cup first. I've already prepared breakfast. Come out and eat after you finish washing up."

"good."

Meng Sheng responded softly and got out of bed.

When she first took a few steps, her legs felt uncomfortable and a little bit awkward. She paused for a few steps before she felt some relief.

After washing up, Sisi rushed over with his "feather duster" upright, rubbed his feet a few times, and fell in front of her like a scammer, revealing a fat little belly.

Meng Sheng's waist was aching, but he didn't bend down to touch it. He walked straight to the dining table, pulled out a chair and sat down.

A delicious breakfast has been placed on the dining table.

Pei Sui brought a bowl of soup from the kitchen and placed it in front of her. "It's good for sobering up. Drink this first, then have breakfast."

Meng Sheng only drank about two-thirds of the porridge before putting the bowl down and starting to drink it.

Halfway through the meal, Pei Sui told her about Qiao Na calling to talk about the meeting.

Meng Sheng didn't react much after hearing this. He just nodded to indicate that he understood.

The room was silent for more than ten seconds. Sisi had jumped onto the chair next to her without her noticing, and sat there obediently, staring at her with her round eyes.

She reached out and touched its jaw, then recalled, "Your grandmother and Madam Cui also attended the art museum opening ceremony yesterday."

She knew that Pei Sui and Cui Xueheng had a bad relationship, and Pei Sui was unwilling to call her mother.

Since he didn't want to call her that, there was no need for her to call her his mother.

Pei Sui frowned upon hearing this and asked seriously, "Did they give you any trouble?"

"No." Meng Sheng smiled. "Your grandma is quite kind and speaks in a gentle manner. Oh, and she also asked me to go to the west city on the 6th. Is that a special day?"

Pei Sui's brows relaxed, and a hint of smile flashed across his deep and cold eyes.

The clear voice was like a cold mountain spring hitting the bluestone, but it also carried a bit of warmth from the first rays of the sun.

"The 6th is Grandma's 80th birthday. She prefers quietness and doesn't like noise, so we didn't plan a big celebration. On that day, we just planned to have a meal together at the old house with our family and several families who have a good relationship with the Pei family."

Meng Sheng suddenly realized, that's how it is.

She asked why the old lady specifically mentioned the 6th.

but……

If she went there that day, she would definitely go as Pei Sui's girlfriend and the future granddaughter-in-law of the Pei family.

The gifts for visiting relatives and birthday celebrations must be prepared now.

No matter how much Pei Sui disliked Cui Xueheng, he had to give her the gift.

This is courtesy.

She also took the opportunity to ask Pei Sui about the old lady's preferences.

Pei Sui was raised by the old lady since he was a child, and he knew her preferences and personality very well. He also gave Meng Sheng several clear directions for choosing gifts.

As for what she chooses in the end, he will not interfere.

After all, that was her intention.

After breakfast, he didn't let her do anything and went to clean up the restaurant and kitchen himself.

Meng Sheng carried Sisi to the sofa in the living room, replied to messages from Qiao Na and the others on his phone, and then played with the cat toy for a while, inadvertently glancing at the black box on the cabinet not far away.

The box was open, and next to it was a familiar-looking game controller.

She was stunned for a moment, and her memory went back to the two DIY black game controllers she saw in Gu Ci's ward a few days ago.

Although she only took a quick look at it, she recognized the dark blue starry sky pattern on the main rocker.

She put down the cat toy, stood up and walked to the cabinet. When she got closer, she found that the game controller was not completely black, but dark blue.

The black color at the bottom of the handle is wrapped with a specific grip.

There are also cartoon oil paintings on the back of the two game controllers.

As soon as you see how exquisite and brilliant it is, you can tell that the person who gave you this game controller was extremely thoughtful.

so……

Is this what Gu Ci gave to Pei Sui?

When Meng Sheng was looking at the two game controllers in confusion, Pei Sui had already finished cleaning the kitchen and walked over.

Seeing what she was holding, he frowned and said, "That was given by Gu Ci."

Meng Sheng turned around and looked at him, "I actually saw these two game controllers in Gu Ci's ward a few days ago."

As expected, those who confess will be treated leniently, while those who resist will be treated severely.

Pei Sui thought, it’s a good thing I didn’t plan to hide it, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to explain myself even if I had a mouth full of words.

However, he was forced to accept this gift.

It was Gu Ci's elder brother Gu Zhe who delivered the things to Old Lady Pei in the old house.

The old lady gave him the gifts from herself and her two cousins.

It was not easy for him to just exclude Gu Ci's gift.

He remembered that when he was about eleven or twelve years old, his father gave him a pair of game controllers as a birthday gift, and he liked them very much.

At that time, Cui Xueheng's condition was more unstable than it is now, and she could not withstand any stimulation.

It happened that he was teaching Gu Ci how to play with a game controller in the living room that day. Cui Xueheng suddenly rushed in and saw him going crazy for a while, not only smashing the game controller into pieces.

He also spoke ill of him.

It was also at that time that he fully understood how much his mother hated and despised him.

Even now, he can still remember how hideous and terrifying Cui Xueheng was that day.

The broken game controller was like the beliefs he held on to in his youth, his hopes and expectations.

Unfortunately, everything was destroyed on that day.

The game controller later became his pain, taboo, and regret.

However, today, these things no longer hurt his heart.

He concentrated his thoughts, pulled Meng Sheng two steps to the side, and pointed at five or six boxes piled on the ground.

"It wasn't just her who sent them. Those were sent by Gu Qinglian and her eldest brother, my two cousins from my aunt's family, my grandmother, and my eldest brother."

"Um?"

Meng Sheng was a little confused.

Everyone gets together to give gifts?

"A birthday present." Pei Sui replied, "Today is my birthday."

Meng Sheng was surprised, "Why didn't you tell me?"

She really didn't know and didn't even have time to prepare gifts.

Although I have looked up Pei Sui's information on the Internet, it was only basic information and there was no information about his date of birth.

"I haven't celebrated my birthday for many years. I don't care about gifts. Just having you here is enough."

Besides, he has actually received a gift that is better than anything else in the world and the most important gift.

When he was a child, he would look forward to his birthday, but as he grew older and knew Cui Xueheng's disgust and hatred for him, he stopped celebrating his birthday.

But this year, perhaps because of her, he felt the urge to blow out the candles with her.

"I've booked a restaurant tonight. When I get off work, I'll pick you up at the art museum?"
