Ji Qingzhou couldn't help but take a few photos before putting down his phone. He looked at the freshly baked fruit cake in front of him and couldn't help but think of last year. At this time last year, although he was with Chu Cheng, his heart was already longing to leave. He and Chu Cheng had a very suppressed kiss in the swimming pool, and Chu Cheng gave him a house while having dinner with him.
At that time, he thought that they would end it.
"I hope we can celebrate my birthday together next year." Ji Qingzhou said softly, looking at the candlelight.
"That's it?" Chu Cheng thought it was too simple. "Change it."
"Then, I hope we can celebrate my birthday together every year in the future." Ji Qingzhou said with a smile.
“This is too easy.”
"Then you alone."
Chu Cheng thought for a moment and said, "I hope we can spend every day together."
Ji Qingzhou couldn't help but laugh, "Then let's do this, I hope we can spend every day together."
When he finished, he blew out the candle and applauded himself.
Chu Cheng helped him cut a piece of cake and handed it to him. Ji Qingzhou took a piece with a fork and commented, "Not bad."
Chu Cheng half-believed and half-doubted, he also cut a piece for himself and tasted it. He was instantly impressed by his own cooking skills: "It's actually quite good."
"You still don't believe me."
"It's mainly because you have a filter for me. This is my first time cooking, and it's obviously not very delicious, but you're pretty good."
Ji Qingzhou looked at him. "For me, it's already very good that you can do this for me."
Chu Cheng sighed, "Baby, I think you can be more demanding of me. You are so considerate that I always feel that I should do better."
"This is just right. It motivates you to do better."
Chu Cheng smiled and said, "Then I will definitely work hard."
The two of them were about to eat. Chu Cheng looked at the five dishes and one soup in front of him, and suddenly thought of something. He asked Ji Qingzhou, "Do you want to invite Lian Jingxing and Anyi to come over to celebrate your birthday? Lian Jingxing knows that it's your birthday today."
Ji Qingzhou put down his chopsticks after hearing this, "You and his?"
"He seemed to remember it himself, so we discussed whether to change the schedule before recording."
"Do you mind if they come over?" Ji Qingzhou asked him. He knew that Chu Cheng was somewhat possessive of him and sometimes he just wanted to do something with him alone. He was naturally willing to invite Lian Jingxing and Yu Anyi, but he didn't know if Chu Cheng would mind.
"If I minded, I wouldn't have brought it up." Chu Cheng looked at him. "I have lived a happy life since I was a child. Although I didn't feel love before I met you, I have family and friendship. Friends are also an indispensable part of everyone. What makes me happiest is that when you encountered problems last year, you were still willing to treat Anyi as your friend, instead of not contacting Anyi because of separation from me. For me, I hope you will be happy all your life. Family, friendship, and love are the three most important feelings in everyone's life. I hope you have them all, and they will last forever. This is my birthday wish for you."
Ji Qingzhou lowered his eyes when he heard this. He had been in this world for two years. Two years was neither long nor short. When he came, he had nothing but the original owner's debts and a sick mother. But now, two years later, he seemed to have everything, career, love, friendship, and family affection with Wang Fang. Although he came here inexplicably and reluctantly, now he seemed to be able to live well here.
"Then go and call your brothers." Ji Qingzhou said with a smile, "It's a birthday, it's more lively with more people, but don't call others, I don't know them."
"Okay, you wait." Chu Cheng said, then stood up and walked out.
Ji Qingzhou watched him leave, looked at the candle in front of him, clasped his hands together, and silently made a wish, "I hope my mother can live a healthy, smooth, peaceful and happy life in my original world. If there is still a me in that world, that would be the best; if there is no me in that world, then I hope my mother can have a child with uncle, slowly forget me, and be happy forever."
He looked at the candlelight in front of him, and vaguely seemed to see his mother. She was smiling gently, as elegant and beautiful as ever. Ji Qingzhou looked at the illusory light and shadow in front of him, and his eyes felt slightly sore.
It didn't take Chu Cheng long to call Lian Jingxing and Yu Anyi over. When Yu Anyi entered the room and saw the two white carved candles burning on the table, she couldn't help but exclaimed, "You guys are quite romantic, candlelight dinner, where did you get the candles?"
"I brought it." Chu Cheng said.
Yu Anyi was shocked, "You are such a considerate person?"
Chu Cheng smiled, "What else do you think?"
Yu Anyi felt like she was blind. After all these years, how come she didn't know that Chu Cheng was still someone who would carry candles with him for candlelight dinners.
Lian Jingxing was much calmer than her. He walked to the table and handed the paper bag in his hand to Ji Qingzhou, "Birthday present."
"You also prepared a birthday present for me?" Ji Qingzhou asked in surprise.
