Upon seeing Shen Jingnian's reply, Yun Haotian felt his vision go black.
He no longer even wants to comment on his uncle.
[Your father is your savior! Are you sure you won't even do anything for her birthday?]
This time, Shen Jingnian did not reply immediately.
because.
He had already driven to Dongge Garden.
11:30.
Shen Jingnian's car was parked downstairs at Building 5.
This was the first time he had given a gift to a girl.
It would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous.
Baidu says it's best to time it at midnight.
so.
He wasn't in a hurry.
I sat in the driver's seat and waited patiently.
I check the time on my phone almost every two minutes.
Strangely enough.
Time, which usually flies by so quickly, seems to be passing so slowly today.
This was the first time Shen Jingnian had ever experienced the feeling of time dragging on endlessly.
bite!
It was 11:45.
Shen Jingnian immediately took out his phone and sent a WeChat message to Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning should be sleeping at this time.
We need to give her some time to change her clothes.
In addition, we have to wait for the elevator.
By the time she finished her work and went downstairs, it was almost midnight.
On the other side, Jiang Ning had just finished her work and was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window admiring the night view when her phone suddenly vibrated.
Jiang Ning took out her phone.
It was a WeChat message sent by Shen Jingnian.
Ningning, come downstairs.
Go downstairs?
Jiang Ning found it a bit strange and replied, "Why are you going downstairs?"
I'm downstairs at your place.
What?
Upon seeing this message, Jiang Ning was somewhat surprised, and she immediately looked downstairs.
The area downstairs was completely empty.
Are you sure you're downstairs at my place?
[Confirmed.] Shen Jingnian replied quickly.
Jiang Ning was even more puzzled, but quickly, she realized something and replied: "Um, I moved. I'm now living in Building 8 of Wancheng Villa."
You moved?!
Upon seeing Jiang Ning's reply, Shen Jingnian was dumbfounded.
So, all that waiting was for nothing?
Wait for me a moment, I'll be right there.
【OK. 】
Shen Jingnian put down his phone, restarted the engine, turned the car around, and immediately headed towards Wancheng Villa.
Shen Jingnian is no stranger to Wancheng Villa.
He also owns property there.
Wancheng Villa is more than 20 kilometers away from Dongge Garden. Even if there is no traffic at night, it is still impossible to reach Wancheng Villa before midnight.
so.
When Shen Jingnian arrived at Wancheng Villa, it was already 0:08.
Shen Jingnian looked at the time on his wristwatch with some disappointment.
After preparing for so long, I still couldn't get it right at midnight.
But he still sent Jiang Ning a WeChat message.
Ningning, I'm here. Come downstairs.
Although Jiang Ning didn't know why Shen Jingnian was looking for her so late at night, she still went downstairs.
Given Shen Jingnian's personality, he wouldn't come looking for him so late at night unless it was something important.
Chen Jingnian's car was parked outside the villa's large iron gate.
He leaned against the car door.
The moonlight bathed his face, making him appear extremely aloof, as if he had descended from the moon, unlike any mortal.
“Sinking for years.”
Jiang Ning pushed open the door and saw this scene. People are powerless against beauty, and Jiang Ning was no exception.
She was momentarily dazed.
Upon hearing Jiang Ning's voice, Shen Jingnian immediately looked up.
The girl had already washed up. Unlike her usual style, she didn't tie her hair up in a bun. Instead, she let her hair down casually, giving her a messy yet languid beauty. Her peach blossom eyes were clear and captivating. Although she was wearing a simple sweatshirt, it couldn't hide her extraordinary temperament.
Their eyes met, and Shen Jingnian was slightly taken aback.
A few seconds later, he realized what was happening and parted his thin lips slightly: "Ningning."
Jiang Ning walked over and asked, "Did you need something?"
“Turn around,” Shen Jingnian said, following the tutorial on Baidu.
Turn around?
Although Jiang Ning looked completely confused, she still turned around.
About a minute later, Shen Jingnian's voice came again, "Ningning, you can turn around now."
When Jiang Ning turned around, she saw Shen Jingnian standing there holding a bouquet of sunflowers.
"Ningning, happy birthday! May you be filled with joy and peace. I hope you are as vibrant as a sunflower, always facing the sun."
This moment.
Jiang Ning couldn't quite describe her feelings. This was the first time in her life that someone had celebrated her birthday, and it was right at midnight.
She walked over and accepted the flowers with both hands. "How did you know it was my birthday today?"
In her previous life, Jiang Ning's birthday was July 8th on the lunar calendar.
Whether by coincidence or not, her birthday is also the 8th day of the 7th lunar month.
“Haotian told me,” Shen Jingnian then opened the passenger door. “By the way, these are also your birthday presents.”
At this point, Shen Jingnian coughed slightly, feeling a little awkward. "Ningning, don't misunderstand. I didn't mean anything by it. You are my only female friend, and I cherish our friendship very much."
"Thank you, Shen Jingnian." Jiang Ning took a step forward and reached out to hug him.
She was 20 centimeters shorter than him.
It's a perfect height difference; he only needs to lower his head slightly, and his chin can touch her hair.
Suddenly embraced by Jiang Ning, Shen Jingnian's body stiffened noticeably, his hand hovering in mid-air, unsure whether to put it down or not.
My heart was pounding, and my Adam's apple bobbed up and down twice.
Her unique scent permeated his nostrils, penetrating every nostril.
It still has that familiar and comforting taste.
However, before Shen Jingnian could even process what was happening, Jiang Ning released him, revealing two shallow dimples at the corners of her mouth, and explained with a smile, "Don't misunderstand, this is a friendly hug."
Friendship?
A friendly hug?
I don't know why.
