Chapter 75
The temperature on the summer night was still high, and the ice cream cake began to melt. Qi Ying licked her lips and asked softly, "Can I eat it now?"
Ji Rang was not even moved yet, but she asked him a question that made him laugh and cry, "Eat. Go home and eat."
Qi Ying shook her head, looked around, and pulled him to the steps next to her and sat down: "Let's eat together."
She placed the cake on her knees, took out two spoons from the bag, handed him one, then scooped a small spoonful into her mouth, squinting her eyes in satisfaction: "So sweet."
He looked at her puffed up little face and whispered, "Well, it's very sweet."
The two of them sat on the steps on the street and finished eating the birthday cake.
The summer night wind was very hot, and his heart was also hot. From the moment he met her, the heart that had been frozen under the ice began to thaw and melt gradually.
The summer tutoring classes were much more comfortable because the classrooms were equipped with air conditioners.
Haiyi won the first place in this college basketball league. Ji Rang was listed on the school bulletin board during his lifetime, and his photo holding the trophy was posted in the column of outstanding stars.
Next to them are the three top students in the grade.
See, he said it, who can't get first place?
He didn't care about it after the competition, and put his mind back on studying, but Liu Yao was very excited. In this kind of city-level competition, the championship is still very valuable. He went to the Academic Affairs Office every day, trying to delete all his disciplinary files at once.
Finally, after considering both the final transcript and the prizes won in the competition, the teacher of the Academic Affairs Office promised Liu Yao that if Ji Rang did not cause any trouble between now and graduation, all his punishments would be cancelled before the college entrance examination.
Liu Yao made a solemn guarantee and went back to give Ji Rang a lecture. He also picked out Qu Dazhuang's group and taught them a lesson, warning them not to cause trouble and implicate Ji Rang.
The number one problem student who once gave the teacher a headache has suddenly become a key protected object. The younger students said that they found it a bit hard to accept psychologically.
However, seeing that Ji Rang's academic performance was improving and his ranking was getting higher and higher, as a brother, how could we not wish him well? We all happily assured Liu Yao that not only would we not implicate him, but we would also supervise him to get into Tsinghua University!
The remedial classes lasted for a month and a half and finally ended in mid-August. This group of high school seniors also welcomed the last summer vacation of their high school career.
Although there are only fifteen days! Although there are still a lot of papers and homework to be done in fifteen days! But this still cannot stop their enthusiasm and anticipation for summer vacation.
Qu Dazhuang and his group were still physically in the classroom, but their minds had long since flown away. It was only under Ji Rang's violent threat that they put their homework into their schoolbags and were forced to promise to finish their summer homework before school started.
Qu Dazhuang asked him excitedly while holding his schoolbag: "Brother Rang, your birthday is coming soon, right? How are you going to celebrate it? You're turning 18! You can't celebrate it like last year!"
On his birthday last year, Xue Manqing threw him a birthday party at a beach villa. Almost everyone in the grade who knew Ji Rang went, but Ji Rang didn't go. He played games all night in an Internet cafe, then went home and slept until the next day.
Ji Rang hasn't celebrated his birthday in many years. His birthday in previous years was no different from any other day for him. He would eat, drink, and sleep. There was nothing worth celebrating.
But this year is different. He has already started looking forward to what gift his little baby will prepare for him.
Her birthdays are one after the other, in July and August respectively, and he is exactly one year older than her.
He is eighteen years old now, and it is his coming-of-age ceremony. I can’t just give him ordinary gifts.
It would be more appropriate to give him eighteen certificates to satisfy his wish.
The boss was secretly looking forward to it.
He waited and waited, until the day before the birthday, and there was no movement from his little baby.
Wait? Doesn’t she know that tomorrow is his birthday??? Didn’t he tell her???
Damn it, did he need to tell her? She didn't tell him when her birthday was, but he figured it out on his own?
Ji Rang waited until the evening. In a few hours it would be his eighteenth birthday! But Qi Ying didn't even send him a message!!!
The boss silently comforted himself and gave her a few more hours. She must be waiting to send her blessings at 12 o'clock! That's right!
Ji Rang turned on the TV, hugged a pillow, sat on the sofa, stared at the clock on the wall, and waited until twelve o'clock.
As expected, the cell phone rang.
He felt relieved and a smile finally appeared on his cold face. He picked up the phone and saw: it was a call from Qu Dazhuang.
Hang up! The line is busy!
Qu Dazhuang, who was hung up on the other end, said: "???"
Then the phone never rang again.
The expression on Ji Rang's face became colder and colder. When it got close to one o'clock, he could not bear it any longer and called Qi Ying.
It took a long time before someone answered. Her voice was groggy, and it was obvious that she had just been woken up from a dream. She was soft and confused: "Hello?"
Ji Rang: “…”
Hang up in anger!
Qi Ying, who was half asleep and half awake, tilted her head and fell asleep again.
The boss, who was so angry that he looked like a puffer fish, stared angrily at a horror variety show on TV until the early morning, and fell asleep on the sofa when it was dawn.
In the dream, I was still thinking fiercely: No forgiveness! Absolutely no forgiveness!
I hadn't slept for long when I heard the sound of a car horn downstairs and the doorbell rang.
He covered his head with a pillow and ignored the doorbell, but it kept ringing. The ding-dong ding-dong sound made him want to hit someone.
Ji Rang suddenly turned over and jumped to the ground, shouting fiercely, "No matter who is outside the door, I'm going to open the door and beat him up now!"
When I opened the door, I saw Qi Ying standing outside. She was wearing a white dress, with her long hair loose and a water-green ribbon on her head. She looked well-behaved and charming.
The boss who had been angry all night and almost turned into a shrew was calmed down with just one look.
Damn, she used the beauty trap, foul!
Qi Ying smiled sweetly and handed him the glass bottle tied with a red ribbon in her arms: "Happy birthday!"
He took the glass bottle and saw that it was filled with colorful little stars. He wanted to laugh and was also a little touched. What era is it now? People still fold little stars to give to others.
He deliberately asked in a muffled voice: "Did you fold it?"
Qi Ying nodded happily, her voice soft and full of pride: "There are nine hundred and ninety-nine in total."
Ninety-nine is even more vulgar.
But why was he so happy in his heart? Ji Rang grabbed his chicken coop hair, pulled her in, and asked, suppressing the excitement in his voice, "Have you had breakfast?"
She shook her head, and the ribbon in her long hair swayed with it, looking strangely charming. "Not yet. I came here on the first bus."
Ji Rang took a box of milk from the refrigerator, went to the kitchen to heat it up for her to drink.
She sipped the milk and urged him, "Go wash your face and change your clothes, we are going out."
Ji Rang was still immersed in the joy of the nine hundred and ninety-nine little stars, "Where are we going?"
Her eyes curved: "Let's go celebrate your birthday."
The boss is no longer angry at all now.
He decided to forgive his little baby for not calling him immediately. After all, not everyone had his inexplicable sense of ritual.
After washing up, he went back to the bedroom to change clothes. In the past, he would just pick up anything from the closet, but today he actually chose carefully. Thinking of the white skirt the little fairy was wearing, he secretly chose a white shirt to make a couple's outfit.
He has a good figure, a standard hanger, and a white shirt makes his shoulders and waist look narrower, like a delicate boy from a comic book. But his temperament is still cold, and he seems a little unkind when he doesn't smile.
She looked in the mirror for quite a while inside, but when she came out, she acted nonchalant and asked, "Where are you going?"
Qi Ying pulled him out: "You'll know when you get there!"
The boss thought, maybe it's somewhere like an amusement park or a movie theater? The girl actually made a date plan secretly. It seems that they haven't had a serious date yet.
He couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
After getting in the car, it turned left and then turned into a residential building.
Why does this place look familiar???
It seems to be Yue Li’s family?
Then Ji Rang watched helplessly as Qi Ying dragged him up six floors and onto the rooftop terrace.
As soon as I opened the door, I heard a noisy sound.
Qu Dazhuang, Liu Haiyang, Luo Bing and a group of people were shooting at each other with water guns like idiots, Yu Zhuo was standing on a stool tying balloons and ribbons, Yue Li was tidying up the barbecue grill, and Wu Rui was figuring out how to light the charcoal for barbecue.
A colorful banner was hung on the railing of the terrace: Ji Rang’s 18th birthday ceremony.
Qu Dazhuang rushed to him like a retarded child, holding a colorful water gun: "Brother Rang! Happy birthday! By the way, why did you hang up on me last night?"
Ji Rang: “…”
Qu Dazhuang: "Forget it, forget it, it's not important! Come on, come on, take a look at this coming-of-age ceremony, are you happy or not!"
Ji Rang: “…”
What a joke!
Give him the double date of his dreams!
