Shen Shi had to coax and deceive Jiang Qing with great difficulty to calm her down.
After they had almost finished eating, the cake Jiang Qing had ordered arrived. It was a delicate and exquisite strawberry cake, which perfectly suited her temperament.
When Shen Shi put on a birthday hat and held up a pink cream strawberry cake, Jiang Qing, who was being photographed by a camera, kept asking him to be cute. The scene was so beautiful that it was hard to look at.
After dinner, the two went to see a movie. When they returned to school in the evening, Shen Shi took Jiang Qing's hand and escorted her to her dormitory.
"Go upstairs." Shen Shi rubbed her head and tidied her messy hair.
Brighter than the stars were the boy's eyes. Anyone would be captivated by such beautiful eyes, and the ordinary Jiang Qing was no exception.
A pair of beautiful, jade-like hands slipped through Shen Shi's waist, and Jiang Qing's soft face pressed against his chest.
"I forgot to tell you earlier."
Shen Shi hugged her slender waist, his chin gently brushing against her smooth forehead, and asked in a low, husky voice, "What?"
Happy birthday, and I love you very much.
Jiang Qing's voice was very soft, as soft as a feather, which would fly away if you weren't careful. But this feather, which was so light that it couldn't be lighter, stirred up a ripple in Shen Shi's heart.
"Having you by my side is my greatest happiness." He said this with boundless love and gratitude.
Thank you for coming back to me; this will be the greatest fortune of my life.
It was getting late, time to rest, but the couple in love wanted to be with each other every minute.
The two stood there hand in hand, not saying a word, just looking into each other's eyes, and they could feel immense joy.
Jiang Qing looked into Chen Shi's eyes and saw the dazzling fireworks.
The pain of leaving the Jiang family, coupled with her parents' sudden change of heart, devastated Jiang Qing, who at one point felt that this was the end of her life.
But reality is ever-changing; when God closes a door, He opens a window.
Having lost her parents' love, Jiang Qing had no choice but to learn to be independent and to learn to fly on her own.
You could say she did a good job. During this time, she acted as if nothing was wrong, living a simple life of eating, studying, and sleeping in her dorm room.
No one could tell that the once glamorous Miss Jiang had become a penniless pauper.
But this kind of life made Jiang Qing feel depressed.
Her mind was completely out of control; she thought of her parents and Shen Shi.
The side effects of her emotions caused her health to deteriorate.
Jiang Qing was like a slow-reacting little animal; when she first encountered setbacks, she thought she could get through them on her own.
And indeed, just as she thought, in the early stages of the injury, Jiang Qing was in pain, but the pain was not enough to break her.
Because at that time, her greatest wish was to escape, to escape from the cage of her family, to escape from the shackles of her parents.
Pain also comes in different levels. When Jiang Qing regained her freedom, she felt lost instead. Standing in front of a new world where fish could leap freely and birds could fly high, her helplessness overwhelmed her ambition.
The pain of separation from her parents gradually became apparent. After twenty years of living with her relatives, they suddenly turned their backs on her. This huge, magical situation made Jiang Qing desperately want to grasp onto something.
"Shen Shi, do you know why I agreed to make up?" Jiang Qing gently scratched Shen Shi's palm with her slender, white fingers.
Chen Shi felt a little itchy from her tickling, so he grabbed Jiang Qing's jade-like white hand and held it in his palm.
Then, turning the tables, he played with her slender fingers and casually replied to Jiang Qing's question, "What else could it be? It's simply because I'm too charming and you love me too much~"
"You're so narcissistic!" Jiang Qing was both amused and exasperated by Shen Shi's unexpected reply.
"Who told us to have the right to be narcissistic~" Shen Shi raised an eyebrow at her, his expression one of undisguised smugness.
Jiang Qing originally wanted to refute him and deflate Chen Shi's arrogance, but when she saw his face, she couldn't bring herself to say anything in denial.
Who can say that Shen Shi has no charm? Anyone who denies his looks is a blatant liar.
Jiang Qing, who was always honest, naturally couldn't bring herself to lie, so she had no choice but to agree with Shen Shi's statement and watch him laugh triumphantly.
Seeing him smile, Jiang Qing couldn't help but gradually raise the corners of her lips as well.
Happy birthday, Shen Shi, who just turned twenty! May you smile like you do today every day from now on.
"As long as you keep smiling, my world won't be too bad."
The usually shy and reserved Jiang Qing changed her usual behavior and said many sweet words to Shen Shi.
"What's wrong with you today? Your lips are as sweet as honey. Is it because your boyfriend is having a big birthday party and you're trying to make me happy?" Shen Shi tapped her forehead and teased her with a smile.
"What?! You really know how to ruin the mood!"
Distracted by the sinking, Jiang Qing's romantic thoughts vanished completely.
At that moment, she had only one thought in her mind: "You're only twenty years old, how can you say it's a big birthday celebration?"
"That's not a good way to say it, it's not proactive, hurry up and say it!"
Jiang Qing's serious expression successfully amused Shen Shi.
"I didn't expect you to be so superstitious, you little girl. I'm saying this to show how much I value this special day."
"It's all because of my good intentions, don't you understand?"
Shen deliberately dragged out the last syllable, not only unaware that he was wrong, but also starting to criticize Jiang Qing.
Although she also felt that Shen Shi's move was a bit against the natural order, it was a trivial matter, and Jiang Qing was too lazy to bother with it. She simply replied with her classic line: "Yes, yes, yes! You're right."
As the saying goes, "A prime minister's belly can hold a boat," but when things go wrong, a commoner not only lacks the magnanimity to hold a boat, but is also naturally good at being petty and calculating.
"You never stop making me angry." Chen Shi once again switched to the mode of blaming others.
"Your Honor, I have been wronged!" Jiang Qing cried out dramatically.
Seeing her state, Shen Shi immediately got into character: "Who is below the court? Why are you crying out for justice!"
She turned the tables and played Bao Zheng, showing she has a wide range of acting skills.
The young couple spent another half hour playing role-playing games downstairs in their dormitory.
It was almost lights out, and even though Jiang Qing wanted to linger a little longer, she had no choice but to go inside.
"Good night, sweet dreams," Shen Shi said, embracing Jiang Qing as they parted.
"You too, remember to see me in your dreams and say hello." Jiang Qing's breath as she spoke sent a shiver down his neck.
"I will." Shen Shi replied in a hoarse voice to the innocent girl in front of him.
After receiving his affirmative response, Jiang Qing happily went back, while Chen Shi watched her joyful figure leave with a reluctant gaze.
