"Okay, let's cut the cake!"
Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating and the gifts had been received, Song Zhi took the tools handed to him by Nie Jinmei and began to distribute the cake to everyone.
The cake Nie Jinmei made was not big, but it was just right, and everyone got a palm-sized piece.
Song Zhi deliberately cut the food into slightly larger pieces for the three little ones.
The three little guys happily took the cake but didn't eat it. They just stared at it with full anticipation.
It was not until Song Zhi tasted it that they couldn't wait to scoop a small spoonful into their mouths.
As soon as the three little guys put the sweet cake into their mouths, their eyes widened and they exclaimed in praise with exaggerated expressions.
“So sweet!”
"It's really sweet and delicious! Jinmei's cooking skills are really good."
Song Zhi took another bite and looked at Nie Jinmei with admiration.
Her skills are really good. Even if she doesn't go to college, she will definitely do very well if she opens a restaurant with this skill in the future.
"I just like to tinker with these useless things. I'm glad you like them." Nie Jinmei smiled a little embarrassedly.
The cake tasted as sweet as she remembered, and the cream was rich, but Song Zhi couldn't eat anything too sweet, not to mention she was pregnant.
But this was Nie Jinmei's kind gesture after all, so she endured it for a moment and finished her small piece of cake.
The three little ones also ate everything clean.
Only Ran Qiu had a little left.
He drank some wine, and his fair face was slightly pink, not as cold as usual, but more approachable.
At this moment, he was eating the cake in small bites with his head down, his movements were slow and his lips were slightly pursed. Song Zhi even thought he was a little cute and couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
Who would have thought that Teacher Ran, who is usually aloof and aloof, could have such a side to him.
Nie Jinmei and Rong Zhengqing were happy today, so they also drank a little wine. They both had a good alcohol tolerance, and their skin was now white with a hint of red.
Song Zhi used the excuse that he couldn't drink alcohol and just drank juice like the three little ones.
Now looking at the three people who were all a little drunk, Song Zhi was a little worried. Would they get drunk and let him take them back?
Fortunately, they all knew their limits and only drank a little and didn't get drunk.
But after drinking, people inevitably started talking more.
"If we both get into National Tsing Hua University in the future, we won't have to separate. We can stay like this and be lifelong friends!"
Nie Jinmei held her face with her hands and sighed, full of longing for the future.
"Yes, let's be good friends for life like we are now." Rong Zhengqing also echoed, her eyes shining, and her gaze fell on each of them one by one.
After so many years in the countryside, the happiest days were the time when I became friends with them.
"So everyone should work hard and get admitted to Tsinghua University together!" Song Zhi gave them another shot of adrenaline, hoping that everyone could work harder.
Normally, everyone is very busy, as they have to study intensively every week. Tonight, it is rare that they have so much free time, and everyone is talking about the future without paying attention to the time.
When Song Zhi came to his senses, he looked at his watch and it was already eleven o'clock.
She turned to look at the little ones who were leaning on the chairs and were drowsy. She quickly reached out and pushed them to wake them up, then led them out to pay the bill and prepare to leave.
When I got to the front desk, I was reminded that they had written that one table had already paid.
"Have you paid the bill?"
Song Zhi was full of surprise. She hadn't come out from the beginning to the end, so when did she pay the bill?
"It should be your friend who got it." The owner of the state-owned restaurant looked at her confused look and reminded her.
Song Zhi still frowned in confusion, unable to figure out who paid for her.
"Who cares who bought it? It's too cold. Let's go back quickly." Rong Zhengqing put his hands in his pockets, shrugged his shoulders, shivered and stamped his feet back and forth, and couldn't help urging.
They would also stand in the wind, with the cold wind blowing, blowing away all the heat in their bodies, and the biting cold was unbearable.
Seeing that everyone was shivering from the cold, Song Zhi didn't pursue the matter any further. After all, there were only a few people who could pay for her.
As soon as they walked out of the state-owned hotel, they saw Tang Junhe standing at the door waiting.
He was not wearing a military uniform, but only ordinary casual clothes. However, because of his outstanding temperament, he could easily attract people's attention.
At this moment, on the street outside, several young girls frequently turned their heads to look at him.
"Have you finished eating?"
Seeing Song Zhi, Tang Junhe took a step forward and greeted her familiarly. Looking at her clothes which were not very thick, he frowned slightly, and stood in front of her with his tall body to block the cold wind for her.
As soon as he saw him, Song Zhi knew who paid for him.
She was a little surprised, but nodded and thanked him.
"Thanks."
After saying that, she changed the subject: "But since I'm treating you, of course I should pay the bill. How much did you spend today? I'll pay you back later."
Hearing this, Tang Junhe's face turned a little ugly and he looked at her with some displeasure.
After he finished his mission, he remembered that today was her birthday, so he hurried over, but she treated him so distantly.
Tang Junhe glanced at Ran Qiu beside her, and thought of the scene where she saw them talking and laughing as they walked out, and she felt a little unhappy again.
But he didn't show it on his face. He just pursed his lips and said, "Why should we be so polite? Today is your birthday. Just consider it a gift from me."
