Since that day, Xu Zhe has never seen Qin Yuyang at school again.
It was quite some time later when I received a message from Qin Yuyang that I learned he had been selected by his professor to work on a research project at a campus in another state.
No one knew that this was Xu Zhengxi's doing; only Si Xingzhu had a slight suspicion.
Spring has passed and summer has arrived in the blink of an eye. Li Yuan led a group on a trip through visa-free destinations in Europe, and then it was time for Xu Zhe to celebrate his second birthday in Germany.
This time, she didn't allow herself any expectations, lest she be disappointed and unhappy.
Aunt Lin started making preparations in advance, just like last year. Xu Zhe felt that making such a fuss was completely unnecessary, but seeing everyone's enthusiasm, he refrained from stopping them.
Si Xingzhu mysteriously ran into Xu Zhe's room.
"Zhe~ There's something I've been keeping to myself for two days, and it's really bothering me!"
"oh."
Why don't you ask what's wrong?
Xu Zhe lazily flipped through the book: "Do you want to say something?"
"We desperately want to tell you! But the young master has strictly forbidden us from doing so!"
Xu Zhe finally looked up, his eyes shifting from the book to Si Xingzhu's face: "Young Master won't let you talk?"
What's going on? Why are you being so mysterious?
"Mmm, I can't say it, I'm dying to say it!"
"Then you'll have to bear with it. Since Zhengxi wants to keep it a secret..."
"I've been holding back for two days! I don't care, I'm going to tell you! You just have to keep it a secret and pretend you don't know anything about it!"
Xu Zhe nodded reluctantly. She was really curious, but worried that if she showed her curiosity, it would make Si Xingzhu hesitate and back down.
"Aha!" Si Xingzhu jumped onto the bed, crossed her legs, and started vomiting. "Young Master is coming! On your birthday!"
"Hahaha! You finally said it!"
"He plans to propose to you on your birthday! Aunt Lin and Li Yuan have been busy preparing these past few days!"
Xu Zhe was stunned, and the book that was on his lap slid down onto the sofa with a whoosh.
"Hehehe! Your silly, goofy reaction is exactly what I want! I've been looking forward to seeing you like this for so long!"
Si Xingzhu is carefree and exhilarated by the secret she's been keeping inside. She's finally able to reveal it and shock everyone!
Cool!
She hasn't been able to go to the toilet properly for the past two days! It's all because of this secret!
"At that time, the young master will suddenly appear at the birthday banquet, take out a ring and propose to you. As for whether you will kneel down, I don't know."
"The division of labor is as follows: Aunt Lin is in charge of logistics, Li Yuan is in charge of filming, and my defeated opponent Si Kangzhu and I are in charge of creating a lively atmosphere."
"What kind of arrangement is this? Si Kangzhu, that silly, poker-faced guy, is supposed to be in my atmosphere-building team?! He's just a filler! I'll have to carry the whole team by myself!"
Si Xingzhu talked on and on, revealing all of Xu Zhengxi's plans.
Xu Zhe: "..." She was speechless; there was nothing more to say!
The older man's ideas were already lacking in creativity, relying entirely on surprises to support his marriage proposal plan. Now that everything has been exposed in advance, Xu Zhe doesn't know how to act.
She's not like Si Xingzhu, who has such a strong dramatic flair.
Surprise, emotion, how did they all come together? Should I cry tears of joy, or not?
Just thinking about it is annoying...
On her birthday, Xu Zhe received a message from Xu Zhengxi early in the morning, wishing her a happy birthday and apologizing for not being able to come due to official business.
Xu Zhe chuckled and replied with a thank you and a no-brainer emoji, playing along with his act.
Breakfast was longevity noodles specially prepared by Aunt Lin. Xu Zhe ate while calculating the time when Xu Zhengxi would appear.
Sure enough, after finishing the bowl of noodles, before she could even burp, she appeared at the restaurant entrance.
Xu Zhe stood up and lunged forward; this wasn't acting, it was her most genuine reaction.
