"A gift?" Deng the Third opened his mouth and raised his voice a lot.
Before Lou Cheng could answer, his face reddened like the cloth worn by the bullfighters on TV. It was as if blood was about to drip out of his face.
He murmured as if he wanted to ask for clarification, but couldn't. Finally, he laughed and said, "It's good that you have it."
As he spoke, he put down the bag and quickly rushed to the door. He didn't pay attention and tripped over the threshold. He stumbled a few steps and almost fell into the opposite door. Then, without looking back, he hurriedly went downstairs.
The living room of Qi Yan's house was quiet. After a few seconds, Lou Cheng's mother asked in confusion, "Cheng, who gave it to you?"
What kind of social connections could a kid who had just entered college have? How could he find a way to get the original-proof spirit and Maojian green tea from Ningshui Daqu for free?
As a mother, she felt that she had to figure it out, in case her son was cheated by others.
Lou Cheng explained with a smile, "Mom, do you remember Tao Xiaofei? I sat in front of him for a long time in high school. You should have seen his mom or dad at the parent-teacher conference, right? "
Xiushan No.1 Middle School's tradition was to arrange the parents according to the student's original position during the parent-teacher conference.
"Yes, his mom always praised you for being good at studying and steady. She wanted to use you as a role model for Tao Xiaofei." Qi Fang immediately recalled. "His mom was really, really dressed like a jewel …"
Lou Zhisheng couldn't help but laugh. "Oh, you learned to use idioms? Jewel is really good, really good! "
Qi Fang stared at him. "I don't dare to compare myself with a great intellectual. But since an 'illiterate' like me can learn to use idioms, shouldn't you, a great intellectual, learn to cook? I'll leave it to you in the future! "
Lou Zhisheng laughed and didn't answer. He looked at Lou Cheng and asked, "Tao Xiaofei gave it to you?"
"Yes, I asked him with the intention of giving it a try. He said he had a lot of them at home, so he gave me some." Lou Cheng turned back and closed the door.
"You guys are quite close. He even gave it to you from afar." Qi Yan interrupted.
Chen Wenguo said thoughtfully, "The Tao Family's background isn't bad."
"Not bad, not bad." Lou Cheng didn't know whether he was answering his aunt or his uncle.
Suddenly, Qi Yan clapped her hands together and clapped. She said excitedly, "Cheng, it's only been a while since we last met. You've grown so much! Haha, this is the first time I've seen Third Brother Deng so embarrassed and embarrassed! Aiyo, what do you mean by our family's connections? If you don't rely on luck, you won't be able to get it in this lifetime? Then I gave him two bottles and two boxes, and they were all free gifts! "
She seemed to have vented the resentment in her chest.
Qi Fang chimed in, "I wanted to beat that Deng the Third just now!"
Her eyebrows and eyes were full of joy. She was immersed in the gratification of her son's ability. The problem that the adults couldn't solve was solved with just a phone call!
"Since your classmate said he would give it to you, we can't just take it for free," Lou Zhisheng said after pondering for a while.
Lou Cheng said with a smile, "Dad, don't worry. I know what I'm doing."
Qi Jiayu was about to praise him when he suddenly heard the sound of the key turning. He saw the door open and two little girls bouncing in. He laughed and said, "Feifei, Xiaoxiao, if you come back a little later, your mom will break your legs."
"My mom? She's just joking. "Qi Yunfei wrinkled her nose and said disdainfully.
Qi Yan's face darkened. "I'm just joking? You haven't been beaten for a long time. Are you itching for a beating? "
"Mom, I won't do it again!" Qi Yunfei suddenly became a lackey. Her attitude changed so fast that Lou Cheng was amazed.
His two cousins had been lively and mischievous since they were young. The effect of the Devil Incarnate plus the Devil Incarnate was definitely more than one plus one. Moreover, they could be considered as the most beautiful among his siblings. Although they were not very beautiful, in the words of the Ningshui dialect, they were "little good, little good". They looked cute and comfortable.
"Brother Lou Cheng, when did you arrive?" While her sister was flattering her mother, Chen Xiaoxiao looked at Lou Cheng with a smile.
She looked very similar to her sister, Qi Yunfei, especially when both of them had air bangs. However, the baby fat on her face was still there, and her eyes were a little bigger. She was less beautiful, but more cute.
"We arrived a long time ago." Lou Cheng said in an exaggerated and heavy tone.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two girls went back to their rooms to tidy up and prepare for lunch. Lou Cheng followed them into Qi Yunfei's boudoir and closed the door with his heel. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and said with a smirk,
"Tell me the truth. You ran out early in the morning on the second day of the New Year. There must be something wrong!"
Chen Xiaoxiao pretended to shiver. "Brother Lou Cheng, it has nothing to do with me. I'm just a cover. Sister Feifei went on a date!"
"Wow, you're in love at such a young age!" Lou Cheng looked at Qi Yunfei in surprise and laughed.
Qi Yunfei first glanced at Chen Xiaoxiao.
"Traitor!"
Then she looked at Lou Cheng and made a face. "I'm 15 years old and in my third year of middle school. What kind of love is this?"
"It's useless to tell me. You have to tell your mother." Lou Cheng raised his eyebrows.
Qi Yunfei's face turned pale. "Brother Lou Cheng, you're not going to betray me, are you?"
"It depends on your performance. If you don't get into Xiushan No. 1 Middle School or Ningshui No. 2 Middle School, you know." Lou Cheng put on a look of indifference.
Seeing his exaggerated performance, Qi Yunfei was relieved. "Don't just talk about me. Brother Lou Cheng, did you have a girlfriend in college?"
"Almost." Lou Cheng stretched out his right hand and pinched the top joint of his little finger with his thumb.
"Oh!" The two girls were full of gossip. "That is to say, you're going to fall in love? What kind of girl is she? "
"I'll tell you when I get her." Lou Cheng didn't want to give himself bad news.
Because of his two lively and likable cousins, this day was full of laughter. After dinner, Qi Jiayu and Qi Yan tried to persuade Lou Cheng and his family to stay for one night and go back the next day.
Chen Xiaoxiao gave up her room and slept with her sister. Lou Cheng's parents lived with her, and Lou Cheng became the head of the department, guarding the living room.
Because Qi Fang mentioned that Lou Cheng had to get up early to exercise, he went to bed at 10: 30 every day. After 10: 00, the others didn't watch TV and went back to their rooms.
Late at night, Lou Cheng logged out of QQ and went to sleep. When he was sleeping soundly, he suddenly felt the vibration of his phone and woke up from the dreamless world.
It was Yan Zheke. The time was exactly midnight.
Why did she suddenly call me? Lou Cheng was surprised, confused, worried and nervous. He quickly picked up the phone and chose to answer.
"Hello, Cheng?" Yan Zheke's familiar voice came with a smile.
"Yes, it's me." Lou Cheng was still a little confused.
Yan Zheke chuckled. "Cheng, happy birthday!"
Happy birthday? Lou Cheng just woke up and remembered that it was his birthday after midnight. It was February 2nd on the Gregorian calendar.
"Haha, if you didn't give me this number, I would have forgotten it myself!" Lou Cheng was overjoyed and beamed. His voice unconsciously became louder and reverberated in the quiet living room.
Yan Zheke waited until midnight just to say happy birthday to me!
I'm so happy!
She was adjusting her biological clock to get used to waking up early to exercise.
"Without me, no one will celebrate your birthday for you?" Yan Zheke asked with a smile.
Lou Cheng was afraid that he would wake others up, so he put on his clothes with difficulty while holding his phone. He groped for the balcony. "I haven't officially celebrated my birthday since elementary school, but my parents will remember to cook me a bowl of longevity noodles."
His family was poor in middle school, so he didn't have the money to buy a birthday cake. He was used to it in high school and felt that it was childish to ask for a birthday celebration.
As soon as he opened the balcony door, Lou Cheng saw a shadow squatting in the corner. He immediately shouted in a low voice,
"Who is it?"
The shadow was scared and jumped up. She turned around and saw Lou Cheng. She patted her chest and said, "Brother Lou Cheng, you scared me to death!"
The shadow was Qi Yunfei, his cousin in the third year of middle school. She was wearing pajamas with rabbit ears and a small quilted jacket. She was trembling while holding her phone.
"You scared me too. I thought there was a thief!" Lou Cheng didn't cover the receiver and said directly.
Qi Yunfei exhaled and said, "Is there a thief as cute as me? My boyfriend called and I was afraid to wake Xiaoxiao up, so I came out to the balcony to talk. "
She looked at Lou Cheng and moved her eyebrows. She snickered. "It seems that you are also a thief."
"Yeah." Lou Cheng found it funny. What a coincidence!
After that, they tacitly turned their backs and each occupied a corner of the balcony to talk on the phone.
"What happened just now?" Yan Zheke asked curiously.
Lou Cheng said with a smile, "I was at my aunt's house. I was afraid to wake the people in the room, so I ran out to the balcony to talk on the phone. I bumped into my cousin. "
"Puff, what was she doing on the balcony in the middle of the night?" Yan Zheke laughed.
Lou Cheng said with a smile, "Puppy love. She was talking on the phone with her boyfriend."
After that, he turned around and saw Qi Yunfei turn her head and stare at him. It seemed that she was saying, "You are such a big mouth. You forget your sister when you see a girl. You are not loyal!"
Lou Cheng didn't care and pretended not to see. After chatting with Yan Zheke for a few minutes, he was afraid that he would delay her getting up early tomorrow. So he said,
"Can I ask for a birthday present?"
"You can ask. It's up to me whether I approve or not!" Yan Zheke answered with a smile. Lou Cheng seemed to be able to imagine her smile.
Quietly turning on the recording function, Lou Cheng said excitedly, "Sing a birthday song for me."
"Humph, for the sake of your birthday." Yan Zheke said proudly and gently hummed the song. "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you … Well, what do you wish for? Hurry up and make a wish! "
Lou Cheng's heart was full of joy. After thinking for a while, he hinted, "As the old saying goes, I only wish that there will be a day every year."
You will be every year, you will be every year!
"That's a good wish." Yan Zheke's voice had a trace of a smile. Then she said quickly, "I'm going to bed. You should hurry up and get up early tomorrow! Good night. "
"Good night!" Seeing that her attitude was not cold, Lou Cheng felt good about himself again. After hanging up the phone, he was so happy that he wanted to scream. But with his cousin Qi Yunfei behind him, he couldn't forget himself and lose his dignity as a brother.
Forcing himself to hold back, he went back to the living room and waved his arms quietly.
The beginning of nineteen years was so beautiful!
After doing all this, he guiltily turned his head to look at the balcony. He saw Qi Yunfei was also secretly looking at him with one hand tightly covering her cheek. She also forgot herself.
They looked at each other and smiled. With tacit understanding, they each made a gesture of encouragement to the other.
…
In the next few days, Lou Cheng fully enjoyed his holiday life. After getting up early to practice, he didn't have to be busy with classes and computer rooms. He didn't have to split his time in half.
Besides having fun with his family and relatives, he also chatted with Yan Zheke, called her, and video-called her. In his spare time, he read novels, surfed the Internet, mingled in different groups, watched his own private forum, or found Jiang Fei and Cheng Qili to play games and guide them to strengthen their bodies. His life was so comfortable that his body and mind were relaxed. The fight on the morning of the first day of the New Year seemed to have happened several years ago. It no longer bothered him in his dreams.
Time flew. Soon it was the seventh day of the New Year. It was time to visit Director Xing.
