"Are you going to celebrate Sun Yingying's birthday this Sunday?" Ji Yue asked Su Qingyun with a frown.
"Yes." Su Qingyun wrote down the answer to a question and said casually.
"Are you two so familiar with each other now?" Ji Yue looked puzzled. He really couldn't understand the friendship between girls. They didn't seem very friendly last time, but how come they could celebrate birthdays together in the blink of an eye? Did he miss something in the meantime?
"We happened to meet last time. They invited me, and I couldn't refuse, so I agreed." Su Qingyun looked at him, "Do you want to go?" She knew that Ji Yue asked this because Sun Yingying must have invited him.
Ji Yue paused, "...go."
He originally wasn't going, but Sun Yingying said Qingyun was going, so...
"Okay." Su Qingyun rubbed his brows. "I still have to think about what gift to give her. What about you? What are you planning to give her?"
"I..." Ji Yue was speechless for a moment. He had never given a girl a gift before. "How about you help me choose one? I'll give you money, and we can buy a gift together."
"That's fine." Su Qingyun nodded indifferently. It didn't matter whether he chose one or two.
On Sunday, Su Qingyun went to town with a birthday present for Sun Yingying, as well as one for Ji Yue.
Ji Yue was waiting for her at the gate of their family compound. He took the thing from Su Qingyun's hand, and Su Qingyun naturally handed it to him. Their movements were smooth and coordinated as if they had done it thousands of times.
Perhaps even Su Qingyun herself did not realize that she and Ji Yue were becoming closer and closer, and she trusted him more and more. The feeling between the two of them that no one else was allowed to interfere was becoming stronger and stronger.
The two walked in. Sun Yingying's home was the innermost building in the family compound.
It is now lunchtime and the family compound is seeing more people coming in. Those who have just finished get off work and are carrying lunch boxes to get food all have strange expressions on their faces when they see the two people walking side by side.
"Hey, is this the girl who came last time?" someone whispered.
"It's the girl from last time. I asked Ji Yue's mother before, and she said that she was a girl from their relative's family. If I'm not saying it, his mother really can't make excuses. Their family is not from this place, so where did the relative come from?"
"If you ask me, she might be the girl that Ji Yue is dating. He's just too embarrassed to tell others. But this girl is really beautiful. Although Ji Yue looks stubborn and cold, he has a good appearance. Standing next to this girl, they are quite a match."
"By the way, doesn't the girl from Deputy Town Mayor Sun's family like this guy? I used to see her following him around all day, but why doesn't she seem to be doing that lately?"
"Who knows? However, Deputy Mayor Sun may not be interested in the Ji family. The Ji family is like a skinny camel. Although it is bigger than a horse, it is still just a camel. When it comes to us, even if you are from the capital, there is nothing you can do."
"If Ji Yue was still in the capital, I wonder how many girls would like him. How could we be so picky?"
"That's right. Let me tell you something. My third sister's daughter came to visit me before and met Ji Yue. Guess what? As soon as she came back, she called my third sister and asked me to arrange a blind date for Ji Yue and her. My third sister is from the city, so she doesn't like the Ji family. Of course, she didn't agree. The child cried and made a fuss at home all day long. What do you think of this?"
"Oh my God, how could such a thing happen? And then..."
The sounds of people's discussions occasionally entered Su Qingyun's ears. She frowned and felt uncomfortable. She glanced at Ji Yue, but found that there was no other expression on his face, as if he didn't hear these sounds at all.
"What's wrong?" Ji Yue asked her.
"It's nothing, let's go." Su Qingyun didn't say anything. She knew that as long as the Ji family was here, these discussions were inevitable.
Ji Yue has been in such an environment and has heard countless such words. Perhaps he has already become numb, or perhaps he simply doesn't care.
But Su Qingyun believed that Ji Yue was a strong person. He would not be bothered by the words of the outside world. He knew what he should do and what he could do, and he would take action to do it. Other people's comments were irrelevant to him.
Therefore, she was not worried that Ji Yue would be hurt, but... these voices were really annoying!
Su Qingyun frowned in disgust and quickened his pace. Soon, the two arrived at Sun Yingying's house and were about to knock on the door.
"Wait a minute." Ji Yue returned the bag to Su Qingyun, "You should give it to her." It would be better for her to give the gift she chose to Sun Yingying personally.
"Okay." Su Qingyun knocked on the door.
"I'm here!" Sun Yingying responded, ran to open the door, and saw the two people with joyful faces, "You two came together?"
"Yes." Su Qingyun gave her a birthday present, "Happy birthday!"
"Thank you!" Sun Yingying took the bag. She lowered her head and saw a beautiful skirt in the bag. Her eyes lit up instantly and she exclaimed in surprise, "It's a skirt!"
"Yes." Su Qingyun smiled and said, "Didn't you say last time that you liked the material of my clothes? I chose one for you. We have similar body shapes, so it should be suitable for you. If there's anything that doesn't fit, I can just make some minor alterations."
"That's great!" Sun Yingying was carefree and had no scruples. She took out the skirt directly. It was a white skirt with blue flowers, which looked fresh and pleasant.
She held it up and gestured with it, then turned around and asked her mother, "Mom, does it look good?"
