Jian Yuncheng looked at Huo Yu coldly, "I'm hanging it up in your office."
Huo Yu had an innocent look on his face, "Why are you hanging it up in my office? Your cousin didn't give it to me."
"My birthday is here," Jian Yuncheng said.
"Oh my Young Master Cheng, are you asking me for a birthday present?" Huo Yu was overjoyed.
However, Jian Yuncheng didn't look like he was joking.
When Huo Yu saw the change in his expression, he quickly changed his words, "No, what do you want? We've been good friends for so many years. There's nothing I can't give you."
"My sister gave me a sweater and a scarf three years ago."
"The black sweater that you always wear in the winter and the scarf that you're reluctant to wear, right?"
"Mhmm."
"Then what did Yiling give you on your birthdays last year and the year before?"
"Nothing."
Jian Yiling used to give Jian Yuncheng a birthday present every year since she was very young.
Sometimes, it was a small clay figurine that she made herself. Sometimes, it was her art homework. Sometimes, it was the candy that she saved up.
Huo Yu was a little surprised, "Huh? Nothing?! "
Jian Yuncheng repeated, "Nothing."
"Then there's a high chance that she won't get one this year." Huo Yu comforted Jian Yuncheng, "When a girl grows up, she only cares about her boyfriend. It's normal that she doesn't remember her brother's birthday."
As soon as Huo Yu finished speaking, he noticed that Jian Yuncheng's eyes were a little cold.
"Ahem." Huo Yu hurriedly changed his words, "Well, actually, Yiling is different from other sisters. She's probably too busy with her studies."
Jian Yuncheng asked, "Then will she give you a present this year?"
Huo Yu: "Uhh … About that …"
This stumped Huo Yu. How did he know if Jian Yiling would prepare a birthday present for her brother?
He wasn't a member of the Jian family. He hadn't even tricked Yiling into calling him 'Brother Yu' yet!
"Well, why don't you ask Yiling?" Huo Yu didn't dare to give an answer easily.
If he said that he was going to give Jian Yiling a present and she didn't want to give it to him, where would he get a present for his sister?
Jian Yuncheng coldly glanced at Huo Yu.
If he could ask, would he still be here talking to him?
"Then, then why don't I help you ask?" Huo Yu asked tentatively.
"Sure."
"Eh? Really? "He was just saying it casually.
"However, don't say that I was the one who wanted to ask," Jian Yuncheng added.
Huo Yu: "This … Okay then. I'll go to Yiling's school to look for her."
Jian Yuncheng replied, "Remember to go to the Old Street and buy the latest popular cake."
Huo Yu asked, "Old Street? That's not on the way. It takes an hour to drive there! "
"I'll give you half a day off this afternoon."
Huo Yu was excited when he heard that. "Alright, alright, alright. I'll go now, hehe!"
When Huo Yu heard that he didn't have to go to work in the afternoon, he was delighted. He turned around and went downstairs to get his car. He drove to the entrance of the Old Street to buy a cake for Jian Yiling.

When Jian Yiling saw Huo Yu, she was packing her things and preparing to leave school.
"Hehe, Yiling ~" Huo Yu chuckled.
Jian Yiling looked at him in confusion. It was as though she was asking him why she was looking for him.
"Yiling, this is the popular cake from the entrance of the Old Street. I heard that it's delicious. I drove for an hour just to buy it for you. You can try it."
Jian Yiling glanced at the cake box in Huo Yu's hand. She was still puzzled.
