Chapter 36 Jiang Xueli's Birthday
Two people stood at the entrance of the community and looked at each other.
The girl with twin ponytails slowly pressed her lips together, the sound of her heartbeat even louder than all the other voices around her. At this age when love is just beginning to blossom, some things have a profound impact.
She looked up at the boy with rippling eyes.
Unable to understand: "How did you know today is my birthday..I don't remember telling you."
Lin Zhengran explained casually: "You are really stupid. Don't you know who usually accompanies you to practice singing? And who helps you check whether there are any changes in the registration conditions of the child star studio from time to time? Of course I know your identity information very well, otherwise how would I know when you were twelve years old?"
Lin Zhengran continued to talk to himself: "Also, I planned to call you at noon. I went to the mall yesterday to pick out a birthday present for you. If you are not in a hurry, I will go upstairs and get it for you now."
"Gift? You even prepared a birthday present for me..." She hummed softly, her face visibly filled with happiness, her whole person was in a dazed state.
His mind stopped working for more than ten seconds before he covered his mouth, hunched his shoulders, and stared at the other person shyly.
She saw Lin Zhengran turning around to go upstairs to get something, so she grabbed the corner of his clothes, closed her eyes and waved her arms in a panic, "Wait, wait, wait! Explain the birthday matter first, I don't quite understand!"
Lin Zhengran turned around: "You still don't understand?"
Jiang Xueli's face was full of happiness now. She put her hands behind her back, her cheeks flushed, and looked away and asked, "I think that's not right either. Since you already know when my birthday is, but we have known each other for so many years, we have never celebrated our birthdays together. Doesn't this conflict with what you said?"
“This one.”
Lin Zhengran actually didn’t know what to say. After all, for boys, there are no birthdays after the age of eighteen.
At least that was the case in his previous life, especially since Lin Zhengran had no relatives or friends in his previous life, not even a father or a mother. After graduation, no one reminded him at all, so even after traveling through time, he felt that celebrating his birthday was not even a small matter among small matters.
"I don't know if you can understand, but birthdays aren't that important to me, so I don't really care."
"Don't care?" Jiang Xueli knew that this guy was very evil, so she believed him, but she still felt something was wrong after hearing it. What was wrong: "Since you forgot all the previous ones, why didn't you forget this year's? And you even bought me a gift..."
Her fingers behind her were entangled nervously, and she bit her lips as if she was fantasizing about something: "Do you think we have grown up after entering junior high school, so this year has some special meaning... I tell you, I'm not that easy to fool. After all, I am also a girl, at least... hehe"
Lin Zhengran was speechless when he saw her being so pretentious, and mercilessly gave her a slap on the face to break her fantasy.
"What are you hehe?!"
Jiang Xueli was awakened in an instant and frowned: "Why did you hit me?!"
Lin Zhengran explained: "I gave you a gift this year because you also gave me something when my parents celebrated my birthday last year."
Jiang Xueli suddenly remembered that one day last year she went to play with Lin Zhengran, and she ran into his uncle and aunt celebrating his birthday. She hurriedly bought a gift and asked her aunt to give it to Lin Zhengran.
Lin Zhengran continued, "Of course if you insist on saying it has a special meaning, it does. After all, this is your first year in the singing industry, so giving you a gift is just a way of cheering you on."
Jiang Xueli clenched her fists again and suddenly cursed, "Big idiot!"
Lin Zhengran knocked her on the head again, not understanding why. "Why are you yelling? Are you sick? Why are you yelling when I give you a gift? You don't want it, right?"
Jiang Xueli gnashed her teeth in shame and anger: "Who said I don't want it! You've already bought it, is there any reason not to give it to me?! I scolded you because..."
She stood there angrily: "Don't try to guess what a girl is thinking."
I knew this idiot wouldn't come to my senses that easily. I thought he was going to confess his feelings to me, which made me so nervous. I didn't know how to agree. Ugh! I didn't know how to refuse.
That’s the result?
Lin Zhengran ignored him and turned around to continue walking upstairs.
"Wait here, I'll go upstairs and get it for you, and by the way, I'll satisfy your wish and go to the movies with you."
Seeing this, Jiang Xueli hurried over and followed him with a smile on her face: "I'll go with you to get it."
"No, wouldn't it be troublesome for you to go upstairs and then downstairs?"
"What do you care if it's troublesome to me? I enjoy it." She snorted and skipped away.
After a while, Lin Zhengran gave Jiang Xueli the gift he bought yesterday.
The gift is quite big in the hand.
"What a big gift! What is it? Can you tell me?" Jiang Xueli asked while holding the gift as if it were a treasure.
Lin Zhengran: "You'll know if you open it and take a look. It's a headset."
"Really? It just so happens that my old headphones are about to break, so I'll just use the one you gave me." She didn't care what Lin Zhengran gave her. If he gave her a stone, she would probably say:
"My balcony is just missing a stone, you are quite good at choosing."
Jiang Xueli held the gift carefully and said that she had to put it at home first, otherwise she would not be able to go to the movies with it.
Lin Zhengran reminded her that she could take it apart and have a look, and if she didn't like it, the boss said she could exchange it for another style.
As a result, Jiang Xueli hugged him tightly: "No, I want this."
After putting the gifts back home, Jiang Xueli and Lin Zhengran went straight to the cinema. Jiang Xueli was very nervous on the way there.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
I've known Big Idiot for so many years, but this is the first time we've gone out to watch a movie together.
I was so nervous that I couldn't even walk straight.
Lin Zhengran noticed that his expression was weirder than usual: "Did you not sleep well last night? Why do I feel like you are in a state of excitement and sleepwalking now?"
Jiang Xueli responded guiltily: "No, I slept very well last night, very soundly."
So the two of them bought two buckets of popcorn and entered the cinema. Within three minutes, Jiang Xueli fell asleep in her chair, holding the popcorn.
She fell into a deep sleep, completely unaware of why. The extreme excitement just now had consumed all of her limited energy.
Lin Zhengran really didn't know what this guy did last night.
Jiang Xueli leaned her head on Lin Zhengran's shoulder while she was sleeping. Lin Zhengran did not wake her up. He would not disturb someone's rare birthday.
The sleep was not long, but it was very sweet.
It was only after the movie ended that Jiang Xueli held her head and regretted it when Lin Zhengran knocked on her door:
"I-I fell asleep?! I just fell asleep while watching a movie with you?! I didn't pay any attention to it at all! Then why was I so anxious last night?"
Fortunately, Lin Zhengran suggested that they go out for dinner together, and Jiang Xueli became happy and agreed reluctantly.
After playing for a whole day, Jiang Xueli went home and cut a large piece of cake for Lin Zhengran when she said goodbye to him in the afternoon.
"Big idiot, as a reward for playing with me today, this cake is for you."
Lin Zhengran heard the system's voice and took it: "Thanks, happy birthday."
Jiang Xueli smiled shyly and waved goodbye to him at the gate of her community.
Watching Lin Zhengran disappear completely in the distance, Jiang Xueli shook her ponytails, turned around, and walked with her arms outstretched, balancing her body on the curbstones beside the community grass.
"Big idiot, big idiot..big idiot..."
She walked a few steps and jumped down, her hands lagging behind her and her twin ponytails following her steps as she bounced back home.
"Twinkle, twinkle little star, the sky is full of..." The tone slowed down and the voice became cheerful: "Little star~"
