Chapter 101 Gift
That day happened to be New Year's Eve. After dinner, the rest of the people tactfully left one after another.
Everyone is very experienced in life and has great vision, so they specially make time and space for lovers who have been apart for a short time.
Adults have an unspoken understanding about this sort of thing.
Zhongli smiled meaningfully, and said to Ye Zhenzhen with a smirk, "Happy birthday!"
She deliberately emphasized the second word, with an inflection in her tone.
Ye Zhenzhen has been influenced by this these days and has learned a lot of jokes between adults. She immediately understood Zhongli's implied meaning.
The blush on her face instantly extended from her ears to the back of her neck. She was not pretending to be innocent. Zhongli teased her like this in front of Wen Baijing.
I haven't developed the thick skin yet, so I'm a little shy.
Ye Zhenzhen smiled shyly and reached out to tickle Zhongli's itch, "You..."
Zhongli giggled and dodged while teasing: "Take it easy, there is still a long way to go..."
When you don't understand the truth, you don't care what others say. But once you know the hidden meaning of certain words, you will unconsciously think of even the most normal words in a distorted way.
Ye Zhenzhen looked extremely uncomfortable, and embarrassedly drove her away, "You should leave quickly..."
Before Zhongli left, he lowered his voice and joked, "Can't you wait so soon?"
Ye Zhenzhen pushed her out the door, and Zhongli stood on tiptoe and said to Wen Baijing: "Mr. Wen, our Zhenzhen has to go to work tomorrow..."
Amidst the laughter and playfulness, Ye Zhenzhen saw her relatives and friends off.
Wen Baijing closed his eyes and leaned lazily on the sofa. He looked a little drunk, but in fact he didn't drink too much. According to his usual alcohol tolerance, it was just a piece of cake and not worth mentioning.
He frowned, raised his hand to press his temple, and groaned uncomfortably.
Ye Zhenzhen brought a cup of hot water and tiptoed to his side. She sat down on the sofa and said softly, "Are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you want some water?"
Wen Baijing shook his head and curled up on the sofa in silence.
I remembered that Lu Yu said that they drove back overnight, and they probably didn't get enough rest and were not in good condition, so they got drunk so easily.
Just as she was in a daze, Wen Baijing put his arm around her waist and said in a low voice with a hint of fatigue, "Let me hug you tightly."
Ye Zhenzhen was already sitting unsteadily, and when Wen Baijing hugged her lightly, her body lost balance and she fell backwards suddenly, with the cup of water in her hand swaying from side to side.
The water in the cup almost spilled out.
She was held in her arms and didn't dare to make any big movements. She stretched out her arms and carefully placed the cup on the coffee table.
Ye Zhenzhen turned around and raised her hand to press Wen Baijing's temple.
Her movements were very unfamiliar, and her expression was focused and serious. "Is this strength okay?"
Girls in love are inadvertently induced to bring out the potential genes of a good wife and mother in their bodies, becoming virtuous and overflowing with maternal love.
Wen Baijing lowered his eyes, his gaze wandering over her face, and asked softly, "What birthday gift do you want?"
Ye Zhenzhen's eyebrows curved into a beautiful arc, and she smiled sweetly: "The gift I want is right next to me."
Seeing her silly look, Wen Baijing suddenly laughed softly, "Why are you so silly?"
Ye Zhenzhen held his face and said seriously, "This is called great wisdom appearing foolish!"
Before she finished speaking, she couldn't help laughing. It was really unbelievable for her to flatter herself and brag like this!
It is rare to see someone so naive and almost stupid after coming out of a nightclub.
That brilliant smile had appeared in Wen Baijing's dreams countless times. The warm white light in the house was not as bright as her eyes.
She blinked, and the stars in her eyes began to fall.
The two looked at each other and smiled for a long time.
Tired of laughing, she began to rub Wen Baijing's temples earnestly, and Wen Baijing's hands were not idle either.
Trying to monitor the rate of her heartbeat, searching around in her heart.
Before she could react, Wen Baijing had already marched straight into the pass fortress.
Their fingers were clasped together, their breaths entwined with each other's inhalations and exhalations. The metallic coolness that they had felt when their fingers were clasped together suddenly disappeared without a trace.
The two came out of the bathroom and lay on the sofa to watch TV, or to be more precise, listen to TV with the volume turned very low.
Ye Zhenzhen rested her head on Wen Baijing's legs, and the two were talking about Lu Yu and Zhongli, the happy enemies today.
What a beautiful scene! It is right before my eyes, filling my nose with sweetness, and reaching out to touch it is all dazzling.
...
Another person who was equally excited that day was Yu Hui. He accompanied his wife in Wu Province to wait for the birth of his child. At 11 o'clock in the morning, he took his son from the nurse's hands with great joy at the door of the obstetrics department.
Ye Zhenzhen was lying on Wen Baijing's lap and browsing Weibo when she saw the good news. She did not like the post nor did she express her wishes.
There was no emotion or touch, just a slid of my fingertips, and I was calm as I posted jokes on Weibo.
Before December 12, the rumored doomsday, netizens joked and made fun of the situation on social platforms, talking nonsense into their keyboards.
Many people plan to spend all the money in their bank cards before doomsday. Anyway, when doomsday comes, everything will return to dust, so they want to have a final carnival before the disaster strikes.
The year 2012 has passed, and the prophecies of the end of the world have been proven false.
I wonder how those netizens who said they would spend all their money on a doomsday party are doing?
Life is an undulating curve drawn by countless small dots. Her 23rd birthday can be regarded as a highlight in her life.
On January 2013, 1, Yuncheng was covered in white, and all you could see were white clouds falling from the sky to the earth.
Everything worldly is covered with crystal clear snowflakes, free of dirt and dust.
Ye Zhenzhen woke up in his arms and reached out to stroke his Adam's apple.
In those years, Wen Baijing gave her the best gift, which could not be measured by material things. The ring that disappeared on his hand left a deep shackle, but that mark would fade away sooner or later until it disappeared completely.
Even if he never says sweet words like "I like you" or "I love you", there are always traces of love hidden in the subtle places.
He always liked to pinch Ye Zhenzhen's cheeks and press his thumb and middle finger on her dimples, saying that when she smiled, her dimples would overflow with fine wine, which was intoxicating at the smell.
Every time she touched his Adam's apple, Ye Zhenzhen felt that possessing his breath was an indescribable thing.
Wen Baijing had kept his eyes closed, and he didn't know when he woke up. He subconsciously grabbed her hand and said in a hoarse voice: "Have you decided what gift you want?"
Ye Zhenzhen shook her head, as if she didn't want any particular gift at the moment, and asked mischievously, "Will you give me whatever I want?"
Wen Baijing pinched her cheek, looking accommodating and indulgent, "I'll try my best."
Ye Zhenzhen stood up from his arms, looked down at him, and smiled slyly, "Then you should owe me the money first! It's better to owe it for a lifetime."
