Since no one remembered, Lin Qingping didn't say anything. He just treated it as an ordinary day and went to the store as usual.
The store is always the busiest on weekends. Lin Qingping spends the whole day in the kitchen kneading dough and baking. When she is busy, she forgets about it and no longer thinks about the specialness of this day.
Even into the evening, there were still many people in the store.
Looking at the increasing number of customers in the store, Lin Qingping discussed with Gu Youlian that they should bake one last batch. There was nothing they could do if the supply still could not meet the demand. She and Sister Zhao’s arms were sore from kneading the dough today.
It’s better to wait a few decades, when the dough mixer can save your hands.
When she went back to the kitchen and started kneading the dough, her sixth sense told her that someone was watching her at the door.
She looked up suddenly and met Gu Juncheng's eyes.
The hands that were kneading the dough stopped.
After not seeing each other for two months, she felt as if she was in a different world. The grievance, discomfort, and jealousy, along with her accelerated heartbeat, all hit her chaotically. Finally, all her emotions turned into tears, falling down in big drops.
Seeing her crying, his expression changed, he walked over and called her, "Lin Qingping..."
Lin Qingping had a lot to say, but she couldn't say anything when she looked at him. She seemed to have lost control of her tears, and only tears flowed. Finally, she stood aside and shouted at him, "Knead the dough! What are you watching?"
He opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything as he wanted to say something. He went to wash his hands and came back to knead the dough vigorously. Lin Qingping was crying beside him.
While he was kneading the dough, he glanced at her from time to time, but he didn't dare to speak.
When the dough was almost beaten in his hands, a batch of cakes came out of the oven. She took them out, put them aside to prepare the decoration, and then put the dough in to rise.
After all the cakes were mounted and cut, and the dough had almost risen, she took it out and kneaded it again.
As soon as he got started, he came over, pushed her aside, took her place, and continued to rub.
Until she said "OK".
Then she pinched the dough, shaped it into the shape she wanted, and put it back in the oven.
There were two of us throughout the whole process. I watched you while you worked, and you watched me while I worked. We didn't say anything.
At first Lin Qingping was still crying, but slowly she calmed down and stopped crying.
Gu Youlian came in to get the mounted cakes. Seeing this, she said to the two of them, "You guys go back first. There will be no more after this batch is baked. Sister Zhao and I can handle the rest."
Lin Qingping didn't say anything, washed her hands, and left the store carrying the cloth bag.
Gu Youlian asked her brother, "What's going on?" They haven't seen each other for almost two months, and they're quarreling as soon as they meet?
Gu Juncheng was speechless and followed him out.
Outside, he also looked at the steak restaurant opposite. It was full of customers and Liang Jiaqi was also busy.
Lin Qingping had already got on his bicycle and was ready to go home.
"Lin Qingping!" he shouted and chased after her.
Lin Qingping ignored him and continued riding forward.
"Lin Qingping!" Gu Juncheng chased all the way.
She just didn't look back, but he was running very fast and she didn't ride very far. Suddenly, she felt a weight on the back seat. She turned around and saw him jumping onto the back seat and hugging her waist.
She stopped immediately, just threw the car to him, and strode forward.
"Lin Qingping, today is your birthday." He suddenly said behind him.
Her body stiffened and the feeling of grievance came back.
It turns out that you remembered her birthday!
"Lin Qingping..." He pushed his bicycle and walked to her side, hesitantly saying, "It's your birthday, though?"
Lin Qingping was so angry that he was almost out of breath: Who gave it to her?
"I thought..." Gu Juncheng hesitated, "I thought... you and your classmates would spend the holiday together."
Lin Qingping suddenly had an idea and understood the hidden meaning of his words.
She turned back suddenly and glared at him, "Gu Juncheng, do you mean that I will live with Liang Jiaqi?"
Gu Juncheng's eyes darkened, but he immediately denied it, "No... yes."
The denial is so hesitant!
Is there anything else that Lin Qingping doesn’t understand?
She turned around and walked towards the school, "Okay, Gu Juncheng, this is what you said, I will go tell Liang Jiaqi that it's my birthday today! Let him hold a birthday party for me!"
Of course she didn't leave.
Gu Juncheng grabbed her wrist and pulled it hard.
With his strength, how could she resist? Not only was she pulled back by him, but she also fell into his arms.
His muscles were stiff and her shoulder hit his chest, which hurt her. She had already finished crying in the store, but now tears came out again.
"He doesn't know your birthday?" he asked, holding her wrist.
"Why does he want to know my birthday?" Lin Qingping raised her head and glared at him, her eyes red and full of tears.
He was unable to answer her question.
Lin Qingping was furious. "Gu Juncheng, so when you say trust me, you really mean trust me! Gu Juncheng, I was not insulted by Yu Chengzhi and Xie Wei, but I was insulted by you..."
She couldn't finish her words because Gu Juncheng's rough fingers gently blocked her lips, "No, I really believe you. Nothing happened between you and him..."
However, his eyes told her what he thought would happen to her and Liang Jiaqi in the future.
Lin Qingping was so angry that she lowered her head and bit his finger very hard.
He should have been in pain, but he just frowned, endured it silently, and let her bite.
"Gu Juncheng, you've given me your permission, right? Then I'll go find him."
He didn't allow it, so he kept holding her hand tightly.
With tears in her eyes, she looked at him angrily, "Why don't you let go?"
He pulled her into his arms with force, "I gave you a chance."
"When did you ever give me a chance? When?" She struggled in his arms, but he held her even tighter.
She had no place to vent her grievances and anger, so she bit his shoulder again, which made him laugh instead.
"What are you laughing at! What are you laughing at!" She pounded his chest hard, "Gu Juncheng, you're almost pissing me off to death, do you know that?"
"I'm sorry." He apologized in a low voice and let her hit and kick him.
"You misunderstood me! You ignored me for two months! Do you think you can just let it go by saying sorry?"
"I didn't misunderstand you, nor did I ignore you. I really can't come out for the past two months." Gu Juncheng's explanation was very brief, without any sweet talk. He then took out a box and handed it to her, "Happy birthday, Lin Qingping."
I don’t know what it is…
Lin Qingping was too proud to accept it or watch it.
He didn't know what to do.
This man is really dull.
"How about we go to Capital Department Store now? See if there's anything you like?" He silently took the box back.
Lin Qingping was also speechless. No matter in the previous life or this life, would he only buy things for her?
