…
three days later
Today is An Ran's birthday, or Jian Xingsui's birthday.
When he got up from the dormitory in the morning, he went to wake Shen Xingchen to wake up. He didn't know when it became his task, because Shen Xingchen couldn't wake up the alarm clock at all, he could only rely on manpower.
However, to his surprise, Shen Xingchen woke up by himself today.
Jian Xingsui was shocked: "Why did you wake up so early?"
"Who do you look down on?" Shen Xingchen snorted lightly, "Can't I get up early?"
"..."
I don't know who is dying every day and doesn't want to get up.
I don't know if it's my illusion, I always feel that Shen Xingchen is very unusual these two days, as if I don't know which muscle is wrong, sometimes I can't see him for a long time, even if I see him, come back He is not as lazy as before, and always looks preoccupied.
Jian Xingsui was afraid that he would forget, so he specially reminded him: "It seems that the program crew has an arrangement this afternoon, let's go to the great hall."
Shen Xingchen said while putting on his clothes: "It seems to be something like that."
Ning Ze is always a hardworking person in the dormitory. Not only did he wash up long ago, he even finished exercising at this moment. He came over and said, "Well, because I want to participate in the recording of An Ran's birthday party."
In order to fear that everyone would not be able to truly feel their feelings, the program team almost failed to write a script for everyone to perform.
Jian Xingsui went to the pool inside to brush his teeth with a cup, and said, "I've been watching the layout of the Great Hall for the past two days. It should be quite grand. You should try to find a good place when the time comes. By then, the cameras can Grab some shots."
Although Ning Ze didn't talk much, he was well-informed: "Jane's family ordered a very large five-layer cake, which was just delivered in the morning, because more than 50 of our students should eat it, I'm afraid it won't be enough, I heard it was specially made."
Jian Xingsui paused while brushing her teeth.
He wanted to smile along with him, but he couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth.
Shen Xingchen put on his clothes and walked over, sniffing: "Who wants to eat that broken cake, it's so boring, maybe there will be leftovers by then, a waste of food and air."
Jian Xingsui laughed after hearing this.
After washing up, several people came out of the dormitory, but they didn't expect to run into An Ran's group head-on.
Many students in the corridor knew that An Ran was definitely going to make his debut, and his family was very strong, so many people would go over to say hello in a very sensible way, even if it was just to gain familiarity, they also verbally sent blessings:
"Happy birthday to you, Ran Ran."
"happy Birthday!"
"Shou Xing is very handsome today!"
There was an unstoppable smile on An Ran's face, and he thanked one by one very shyly: "Thank you everyone, I will invite you to eat cake later, you all have to come."
Of course, the other students agreed, after all, they have done enough superficial skills.
Soon, An Ran also walked in front of Jian Xingsui. Just as the group was about to pass by, Jian Xingsui wanted to pretend to be invisible, but An Ran's voice came out: "Sui."
Jian Xingsui paused.
An Ran also followed the others to say hello: "Hello, brother Xingchen, hello, brother Ningze."
Shen Xingchen didn't have anything good to say when he opened his mouth: "Where is it, I am not as good as you, birthday star."
Hearing his eccentricity, An Ran didn't know whether it was a blessing or something, but no matter what it was, he could only accept it, so he could only smile awkwardly.
But soon, he remembered his main purpose, so he set his sights on Jian Xingsui again, but said to everyone: "We have cooperated on several stages before, and we are all friends now. This time, I want to thank everyone for their care, so don’t be too polite, I also prepared gifts for you tonight, and I want to give them to you personally when the time comes.”
Seeing An Ran's smiling face, Jian Xingsui felt a little tired for some reason. Sometimes he was really tired from acting in this scene, especially on his birthday, and wanted to take a day off.
A few days ago, he had a low fever and was hospitalized. Although he was recuperating during this time, he still occasionally coughed and felt weak, so he took the opportunity to say: "Go, I'm not feeling well. I'll ask the director for leave this afternoon, so I won't go. gone."
An Ran looked at him sideways in surprise: "What's wrong?"
"Where can you feel uncomfortable, it can't be because your eyes are uncomfortable." Shen Xingchen didn't feel uncomfortable: "Anyway, it's uncomfortable."
An Ran glared at him angrily.
Jian Xingsui felt funny in her heart, but she didn't show it. She just said to An Ran, "That's about it, sorry."
An Ran was a little disappointed. He knew that today was also Jian Xingsui's birthday, but Jian Xingsui didn't say it himself, and he couldn't say it. In case other students asked them to celebrate their birthday together, don't mention Jian Xingsui Now that she is more popular than herself, maybe the money invested by her family and the birthday party she holds will be used to make wedding dresses for others. It is said that if Jian Xingsui steals her limelight again, the loss will not be worth the loss.
Therefore
An Ran thought about it in his heart, and actually felt that it would be better if Zhenjian Xingsui really didn't come, so he said: "Well then, you can have a good rest at the age of Sui."
Jian Xingsui nodded, and both of them let each other go.
…
When it was close to the evening in the afternoon, most of the colleges had gone to the birthday party, and Jane Xingsui was reading in the library.
The library is one floor higher than the auditorium. He is sitting by the window, and he can see the movement of the auditorium from here. The lights there are bright, the ribbons and balloons are so bright that they seem to dazzle someone's eyes, and the lively and noisy sounds are very loud. Da, Jian Zhi is here, I heard that Jian Kuo is also here, the family reunion is very touching, the photographer is seriously recording this beautiful moment.
Jian Xingsui looked at it with his chin propped up. He was a little sad when he first heard about this incident, but now his heart has calmed down. He looked at his former relatives surrounded by another person, but he was a little numb.
Xiaomi came over and said, "Sui Sui."
Jian Xingsui was a little surprised to see him coming.
"I sent you a mobile phone." Xiaomi looked at it and sighed: "I only found out about your birthday today from the director. I didn't arrange it for you this time, so I asked me to send you a mobile phone. Said that today you can use it freely."
It's compensation.
Xiaomi couldn't say this sentence.
Jian Xingsui took the phone and said with a smile, "Thank you."
Looking at him, Xiaomi suddenly felt a little sad. It’s also birthdays. Some people are full of beauty, while others can only sit alone in a quiet corner and live in silence. They are obviously the same age, but they live completely different lives. Mercy is also impotent.
Xiaomi said, "Then I'll go first."
Jian Xingsui was very polite: "I'm sorry."
After he left, Jian Xingsui turned on his mobile phone. This was the first time he got his mobile phone again after a long time. After opening WeChat, the person who sent him the most messages was actually his manager, Brother Wang. Divided into several categories:
"Anyway, you will definitely not be able to make your debut, so don't hold back and retire from the competition."
"We have already collected one million for you, and we can't break the contract."
"Think about the consequences yourself, or I won't be able to help you."
Jian Xingsui flipped through these in silence without replying a word.
In fact, he had already thought about it before he participated in "Starlight". As the protagonist, An Ran has a halo. If he doesn't want to die like he did in his previous life, the most important thing he should do is to avoid him, so he has always wanted to If he gets a sum of money, he quits the entertainment industry, and then goes to other cities, or develops abroad, and leaves here completely. It doesn't matter what the agency will do to him. The worst thing is that he will be terminated by cold storage. He doesn't care much about these things. .
Turning back, there was no news.
Jian Xingsui clicked on the text message on his mobile phone, and found sadly that it was 10086 and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China who sent him a text message to wish him a birthday, and even the Zhangs and his wife had no news.
…
When seeing this, Jian Xingsui's heart sank a little bit, but she wasn't that sad. Maybe she had already prepared herself mentally before, and naturally she wouldn't face that kind of difficulty, but it would be a little bit It's just lonely, but he will learn to get used to this feeling slowly.
While looking at the phone, someone came from behind and patted him on the shoulder: "What are you doing here?"
Jian Xingsui shuddered, and looked back in disbelief: "Xing Chen?"
Shen Xingchen leaned against the table, took Jian Xingsui's book and said, "What is this? Grimm's Fairy Tales? What a broken book, don't read it, just come with me."
"no… "
Jian Xingsui was caught off guard by him and pulled him outside, hesitantly said: "Where are you going, you are not filming the show yet, why did you come out?"
Shen Xingchen said confidently, "I sneaked out."
Jian Xingsui was silent, he might be surprised if someone else did such a thing, but Shen Xingchen did such a thing, he actually had a feeling that it should be like this, maybe the young master is usually capricious, so he actually accepted it.
…
Jian Xingsui followed Shen Xingchen down, and when she went downstairs, she heard the sound of thunder exploding in the sky outside.
"Where are we going, Xingchen?" Jian Xingsui said as he followed him, "It seems to be raining outside."
Shen Xingchen responded, and finally brought him to the door of the classroom, and said, "Go in, I'll discuss something with you."
When I got here, Jian Xingsui hadn't noticed anything wrong. After all, it's not unusual for Shen Xingchen to do anything because of his unreliability. Although he felt a little puzzled in his heart, he still took a step forward and pushed him away. Door.
"Squeak"
The door opened.
The moment Jian Xingsui opened the door, before he could see clearly inside, he suddenly heard the "bang bang" sound of bouncing fireworks, and then small colorful streamers floated in the air, spun around and landed on Jian Xingsui's body.
"happy Birthday!"
There were cheerful and orderly voices in the house.
Jian Xingsui opened her eyes, and found that Wen Shengge and Ning Ze were standing at the two books, and Shen Xingchen was standing behind them. The three of them were laughing and talking about Yan Yan, with small fireworks in their hands.
"You, you..." Jian Xingsui didn't react for a while, and even stuttered when she spoke: "Who are you?"
Shen Xingchen rubbed his nose to play handsome: "I can't tell, it's your birthday, isn't today your birthday?"
Jian Xingsui wanted to talk, wanted to ask them how they knew about it, wanted to ask them how they sneaked out, and also wanted to ask where the little fireworks came from. Thousands of words came to his mind, but in the end he didn't know what to say first. He hesitated for a while, but lowered his head in a useless manner, and his eyes were red quietly.
Shen Xingchen hurriedly said, "Hey, oh, don't be grateful brother, brother is just a legend, you must never promise yourself, I only treat you as a younger brother."
"..."
Jian Xingsui laughed through tears.
Why does this fool always have the ability to break the atmosphere for a second
Ning Ze took Jian Xingsui inside and said, "Come here."
Jian Xingsui followed them and saw the table behind a row of small ribbons. On the table was a table of steaming dishes, which looked a little strange, such as fried shredded potatoes and tofu With green vegetable leaves and even a bowl of mixed soup, all kinds of rice are piled up together, which looks a bit nondescript.
Ning Ze said: "It's all Xingchen's suggestion. He said that it's your birthday, so you have to cook yourself."
Wen Shengge complained: "But it's really hard to eat."
Shen Xingchen was full of threats, bluffing: "What did you say?"
Wen Shengge shut up.
In fact, he didn't need to say it, Jian Xingsui knew that the food on this table probably didn't taste very good, but with the steaming smoke coming out, his heart was also warm, and he only felt satisfied in this bustling environment.
Shen Xingchen said: "Don't dislike me, I'll let you eat something delicious soon."
Jian Xingsui was puzzled: "What?"
Shen Xingchen was complacent. When Jian Xingsui turned her head, she found that a woman had come to the door not far away. It was late autumn now. The woman was lined with a white woolen sweater, and she was wearing a light orange knitted coat. Wearing a delicate and beautiful gemstone brooch, her jet-black hair hangs down to her shoulders and is a little curly. She looks to be nearly forty years old, but there is a gentle aura all over her body.
The ribbons fluttered in the air, and they looked at each other from a distance, separated by some distance.
Jian Xingsui froze in place, with a strange feeling that made him not know how to react, and he was speechless at all.
Shen Xingchen yelled: "Mom, why did you come here?"
"It's raining, and there's a traffic jam on the road." Xu Enzhen said softly, her voice was also so peaceful and gentle, and she was carrying a lot of things in her hand: "I don't want to be late, but fortunately, I came in time."
Shen Xingchen didn't expect her mother to come here alone.
She was dressed very formally today, as if she got up early to put on delicate makeup, put on decent clothes, brought the things she had prepared earlier, and concentrated on coming to the meeting.
Shen Xingchen quickly walked over to pick up things: "Why do you buy so many things? Are they all for me? Which one of these is a gift?"
"No." Xu Enzhen said, "It's all gifts for Xing Sui."
Shen Xingchen stared in disbelief:
Xu Enzhen walked slowly in front of Jian Xingsui. She raised her head and looked at the child in front of her. Jian Xingsui was standing under the light with his back to the light. He was a head shorter than Shen Xingchen and looked thinner. There are many, and the face is more immature. At this moment, the face with facial features and Shen Xingchen's five or six points resembles Shen Xingchen, looking at him in confusion and helplessness.
No matter when Xu Enzhen stands in front of him, he will feel that there will be overflowing emotions in his heart: "You..."
Jian Xingsui also stretched out his hand to hold her extended hand without hesitation, and said softly and crisply, "Hello, Auntie."
Warm hands wrapped Xu Enzhen's somewhat cold hands.
Xu Enzhen unconsciously held Jian Xingsui after feeling the temperature: "Hello."
Shen Xingchen leaned over and said, "Mom, where is the cake you brought?"
Which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted.
Xu Enzhen recovered, and she was a little embarrassed when she mentioned this: "Well, my mother originally planned to make cakes by herself, but she didn't know what happened. She failed many times when it was ready, and in the end she had no choice but to drag someone to buy it. gone."
Shen Xingchen said: "I don't know what's going on, how dare the nanny in your cooking family let you cook."
None of their family has this culinary skill.
Xu Enzhen glared at him.
Shen Xingchen asked, "Then who do you ask to buy it?"
When Xu En was about to speak, the outer door was pushed open again, and someone walked in with slender legs. The man who was born at the door was in a suit and leather shoes. He must have rushed over from some event site, with black stripes on his body. It's been a long time since the suit is straight. Fu Jinxiao once again appeared in front of everyone in such a formal attire. His handsome face and elegant temperament instantly made him the center of everyone's eyes. The people in the room hooked their lips and smiled: "Am I late?"
Xu Enzhen said: "I just arrived too, thank you for your hard work tonight."
"Where is the matter, Madam, you are welcome." Fu Jinxiao walked in and said, "It was originally booked, but in fact it should have arrived long ago. The weather at the event site delayed it for a while, and it was almost late."
Jian Xingsui listened in a cloud, but caught a sentence—it was originally scheduled.
What's the meaning
Did you pre-order a cake for yourself
How do these people know? Jian Xingsui was like being hit by a pie falling from the sky, and she was at a loss for what to do now. On the one hand, she felt that the joy was about to rise to the top of her head, and on the other hand, she wondered whether this might not be true at all.
Fu Jinxiao stood in front of him, the tall and handsome man looked down at him, and opened his lips: "Long time no see."
Jian Xingsui unconsciously curled up her hands beside her, and nodded slightly: "It's been a while since I saw you, are you busy with work?"
"Well, there are a few announcements to be made." Fu Jinxiao glanced at him: "Is your body recovering well?"
Jian Xingsui said, "It's okay."
"I don't think you're very good." Fu Jinxiao's voice was a little teasing: "It's a good thing that you came in time. You don't want to celebrate your birthday after this. You missed this opportunity to make a wish today. Where can you go to pray for good health?"
Jian Xingsui's eyes were unconsciously stained with a smile: "Thank you."
The two of them communicated here, but they looked a little silly to others.
Shen Xingchen's rough nerves are fine. Ning Ze and Wen Shengge did not expect that Jian Xingsui and Teacher Fu could chat so naturally. Not the same.
Fu Jinxiao put the cake on the table and said, "Take it apart and see if it's deformed."
Ning Ze hurriedly stepped forward to unwrap the cake.
It was not deformed, and it was a two-layered blue cake, with a golden star inserted on the top of the cake, which was dazzling and eye-catching.
Ning Ze and Wen Shengge helped put in the candles, and the cake was lit with warm yellow candlelight after a while. It looked very moving indoors. The two of them stood by the table and smiled: "Happy birthday, Sui Sui."
Jian Xingsui felt a little real after feeling the temperature of the candlelight.
Fu Jinxiao stood beside him and called out his name: "Jane Xingsui."
Jane Xingsui turned around.
Fu Jinxiao hooked his lips, he took out a small golden crown from nowhere, this is only worn by birthday stars, and the crown was folded by Fu Yingdi himself, and he waved to him: "Come here .”
Jian Xingsui walked over in a few steps, and walked in front of the man. With every step, her heart felt a little hot.
The ribbon fluttered, and the young man standing below looked at his idol with some hesitation. This person who was once unattainable to him stood in front of him, and everything seemed like a dream.
Fu Jinxiao looked at him and said, "Birthday gift."
When we got closer, Jian Xingsui realized that this little crown was not made of paper, and there seemed to be an inscription on the inner wall, which was an abbreviation of F, which was very clear. Others might be confused, but Jian Xingsui recognized it at a glance. It came out. This was in 2007. As a repeat student, Fu Jinxiao once again challenged that draft variety show and won the championship.
This is the crown of glory that only the C position can have!
Jian Xingsui didn't care about any pretense anymore, he stammered and said, "This, this is..."
Fu Jinxiao's eyes darkened, and he whispered, "You know this."
Jian Xingsui stuttered even more, she didn't know if she should admit it or not.
"This is a souvenir I got when I participated in "The King of Songs" in 2007." Fu Jinxiao played with it in his hands, and slowly narrated in a low and magnetic voice: "At that time, I was not famous and had few fans. 05 When I participated in the first season of "The King of Singers" in 2009, I failed in the competition, and many fans lost their fans, and even I myself began to doubt whether I could do it."
Fu Jinxiao hooked his lips while talking: "Later, there was a little fan who sent me private messages of encouragement every day. He often said that he was eliminated not because he couldn't do it. He made me believe in my ability. There will be a better tomorrow in the future.”
At that time, Jian Xing was still young, and what he said was naive, but he never thought about it, it was because of his enthusiasm when he was young, and it was because of his extraordinarily sincere words, how could he give an artist who was in a low period? It is precisely because of his firm companionship that there is a person who stands at the top of the pyramid and shines with gold.
Fu Jinxiao came closer and said in a low voice, "Now I will also give you this crown."
Jian Xingsui's heart was overwhelmed, and she looked at the person in front of her in disbelief.
Fu Jinxiao's fickle eyes are always tinged with a smile, even with a gentleness that he didn't realize himself, and his voice is low and magnetic: "Happy birthday."
The blessings that were close to his ears fell, and Jian Xingsui's eye sockets were stained red.
Shen Xingchen from behind came over and said, "Oh, hurry up and blow out the candles, can't you? We're all waiting for dinner!"
"..."
There was a moment of silence in the air.
Jian Xingsui quickly recovered, trotted back and said, "Okay, okay..."
He stood next to the cake, saw Xu Enzhen standing there, smiled at the woman, then folded his hands together, and began to make a wish earnestly. He did not wish for good health as he said before, so he lit the gentle candlelight, The wish I made is to hope that the happiness at this moment can be continued, and that everyone present here today is in good health and wishes come true.
It was so quiet inside the house, but it was pouring rain outside, and the rumbling thunder pierced the sky. Xu Enzhen next to him was looking at the boy in front of him without blinking. His profile features were 50% or 60% similar to Shen Xingchen, especially the lowered eyebrows and eyes. When the eyes are down, the eyes are exactly the same.
in a trance
Jian Xingsui's figure overlapped with the child Xu Enzhen dreamed of in his dream.
Everyone said that he was dead, and that she had a mental problem, but every time Xu Enzhen dreamed of that child, he would follow behind her and cry "Mom, Mom" in a childish voice. , he is not a noisy child, on the contrary he is always very sensible, in his dream, he is growing up slowly.
Xu Enzhen always dreams of him. In the dream, she is a third party's perspective, and she can only look at him from a distance forever.
Watching him toddler, watching him babbling, watching him slowly grow taller, watching him cry but being helpless, watching him being bullied but not being able to help, as I let myself grow for a long time In the end, the figure of this child gradually became blurred in her dreams, but she missed him even more.
Shen Xingchen said: "After making your wish, you can open the present. Mom, what did you buy?"
Xu Enzhen came back to her senses, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and after calming down her emotions, she walked to the table, picked up the things on it and tidied it up, then turned around and smiled at Jian Xingsui and said, "Auntie doesn't know that you lack What, so I just looked at the one I bought, and I don’t know if you like it or not.”
Jian Xingsui came over, stood beside her and said, "It's costing you."
Xu Enzhen shook his head, slowly took it out of the package, and showed it to him: "This is a knee pad for dancing. When I watch your live broadcast, I always hit my knee when I dance, thinking that maybe you can use it. There is this, this is for calcium supplementation, you are growing and your body needs nutrition to keep up, you are too thin, I heard that you were sick some time ago, you must pay attention to your body to know, and there are, and this, this I don't know if you like it or not, this is... "
She kept chanting, but the young man standing in front of her listened patiently.
After Xu Enzhen finished speaking clumsily, a pair of gentle eyes greeted him. Jian Xingsui was holding something, a little stiff and shy, and finally nodded and said, "I like it."
"That's right, isn't this too expensive?" Jian Xingsui held these things and said softly, "I've never received so many gifts..."
Xu Enzhen looked at the thin and frail child in front of her holding things at a loss, and the flattered look made her feel a little distressed.
For many years, she had a hard time getting through this day, because she always thought, if that child hadn't died, today would be his birthday, what would he look like, what would he like, What kind of gift should I prepare for him? How tall is he now? Does he have a good life
However, today, for the first time, she did not have that sense of loneliness. When she saw Jian Xingsui, she felt a strange feeling in her heart, as if her heart was filled.
"Boom!"
There was another muffled thunder outside, which made Xu Enzhen's heart tremble.
She looked at Jian Xingsui in front of her, stretched out her hand unconsciously, and asked tentatively, "Can I hug you?"
Jian Xingsui was taken aback. He didn't know why Xu Enzhen had such a proposal, but he didn't resist. He put everything in his hand aside, then nodded and smiled: "Yes."
The sound of the rain outside was pattering, and the young man was looking directly at himself with a slight smile in his eyes under the light.
In a trance, Xu Enzhen seemed to see that young child again, and in the dream, he followed her step by step and shouted "Mom, Mom", and then, that child was slowly swallowed by the darkness, and left her just like that. I can't catch it, I can't keep it no matter what, I can only accept it in despair.
Xu Enzhen slowly moved away, and walked towards Jian Xingsui step by step, as if pulling the child in a dream, and opened her hands to hug him, but in the past, she could only rush to nothing, but This time, he fell into a warm embrace. This body was a little thin, but it was tactile and warm.
She didn't miss out.
She actually caught it.
Xu Enzhen's breathing was up and down, and the sadness in her heart was churning like mountains and seas. She hugged Jian Xingsui tightly, and could no longer control her tears, and said tremblingly: "My child..."
Jian Xingsui originally wanted to give an ordinary hug, but when his body really touched, especially when he met those sad eyes, he felt a very unusual touch from the bottom of his heart. The unfamiliar emotion made him not know what to do. Xu Enzhen's trembling call sounded in his ears, Jian Xingsui's eyes trembled slightly, and his arms unconsciously hugged Xu Enzhen as if he was out of control. He murmured, "Mom..."
