Brother Zhan's birthday is two days before the die.
The first round of review has ended. What is the result? The same model exam is very important, and everyone is very nervous.
Before Gu Qinan came, the trio's birthday was to go out to have a meal to celebrate. Because I don't study at all, I go out to eat and play as usual even on non-weekends.
But this year's situation is special. Except for Lin Xiaobin, the other three are really hanging on their heads. As a result, Lin Xiaobin didn't dare to take out his phone to play games after class, so he could only pretend to read, and he actually improved a bit.
Before anyone else mentioned it, Brother Zhan took the initiative to say that he would postpone the meal until the end of the model test, so don't waste time because of his birthday.
Everyone has no opinion.
But Gu Qinan still secretly discussed with Wu Yuan and Lin Xiaobin that the meal can be skipped, but the birthday cake must be eaten, and it must be eaten on the same day.
Lin Xiaobin wondered: "Why do you have to eat birthday cake?"
Gu Qinan insisted: "Of course you have to eat cakes on your birthday, and you have a sense of ceremony when you eat cakes! Also, birthday gifts must be given on the same day, so it's interesting."
Lin Xiaobin: "We straight men don't eat cake on their birthdays."
Wu Yuan: "Everyone drinks."
Lin Xiaobin: "Yes."
Gu Qinan: "Didn't you buy me a cake last time?"
Lin Xiaobin: "That was bought by your good friend Zhan, not our straight men."
Gu Qinan: "... I don't care, I have already ordered the cake. It will be delivered to you after the self-study get out of class that evening. You have to participate if you don't."
Of course Wu Yuan and Lin Xiaobin didn't dare not to participate, but they were worried about the gifts.
The three temporarily pulled a small group to discuss birthday gifts.
Brother Bin rushed forward: Why don't the three of us pool money to buy a pair of sneakers
3: I have already bought the gift.
Brother Bin rushed forward: I'll go! No! The three of us have never given each other gifts before, so we just invite you to dinner and you're done. Why do you have so many rules, Brother Nan
3: I want you to take care of it.
Brother Bin rushed forward: OK, I made the mistake.
Brother Yuan must go: send a game skin? The new hero skins are so pretty!
Brother Bin rushed forward: I see it!
3: ... Brother Zhan hasn't played games for a few months.
Brother Bin rushed forward: ... I choose death.
Brother Yuan must do it: me too.
The day before Brother Zhan's birthday, Gu Qinan started dozing off at eleven o'clock. He lay in bed first, and the alarm clock for 11:59 was set on his mobile phone. I got up on time and counted down to zero, and sent Brother Zhan a happy birthday message.
Little Nanzai: Happy Birthday!
Shake Shake: Good
Shake Shake: Haven't slept yet
Xiao Nanzai: I set the alarm clock! Am I the first person to say happy birthday to you
Shake Shake: Yes
Shake and shake: Wu Yuan and Lin Xiaobin won't wait for zero, and you will be the first tomorrow morning.
Xiao Nanzai: No, I will say it at 00:00!
Shake Shake: Well, go to sleep
Xiao Nanzai: Okay, good night.
Shake Shake: Good Night
As soon as we met the next day, Gu Qinan put a piece of chocolate in Zhanming's mouth and said with a smile, "Happy birthday."
Chocolate is sweet.
Zhan Ming didn't know what to say or where to put his hands. When the chocolate melted in my mouth and it was sweet enough to my heart, I remembered that I had to go to class.
On this day, every time after class, Gu Qinan stuffed Zhan Ming with a piece of chocolate.
Chocolate comes in many flavors, matcha, truffle, wine, hazelnut…
Lin Xiaobin saw it and wanted to eat it too.
Gu Qinan didn't give it to him, and said, "This is for Brother Zhan, who is celebrating his birthday."
Lin Xiaobin shivered: "I can't stand you guys like this every day."
After school in the afternoon, Gu Qinan said that he wanted to stay overnight. Zhan Ming was afraid of affecting his review and did not let him stay. Gu Qinan was about to hang on to him and act like a spoiled child, and finally said "I just want to spend the whole day with you today" before Brother Zhan agreed to his stay.
During the evening self-study, Gu Qinan was still very serious, and the group of four concentrated on studying. Except that Lin Xiaobin sometimes couldn't sit still and twisted and twisted all over, like an ant getting into his clothes. But he didn't dare to take out his mobile phone to play games, Brother Zhan stared, and Brother Yuan also stared. He sighed and could only continue to study.
Self-study ends at 9:30 in the evening, and Zhan Ming usually stays there until 10:30 before returning. But today, Gu Qinan pulled him away after class, and Wu Yuan and Lin Xiaobin followed.
After leaving the school gate, the takeaway brother from the cake shop was already waiting with the cake.
Gu Qinan happily took the cake and shouted, "Happy birthday! Just blow out the candles and eat the cake, you won't waste a lot of time!"
Zhan Ming hadn't eaten his birthday cake for several years. At this time, seeing Gu Qinan so happy, he couldn't say anything else.
When they got to the small rental house, the four of them moved out the small table and put the cake on it.
When the lid was opened, all three people except Gu Qinan were stunned.
The cake is a cream cake. The shape is very simple. The pure white cream layer has no wrinkles at all. It is as flat as a mirror. A small red heart is melted on it. The dark chocolate next to it reads: Brother, happy birthday.
After a while, Lin Xiaobin clicked his tongue and sighed: "Xiao Nanzai, I'm convinced, a good friend for a lifetime."
Zhan Ming was helpless, but he was happy.
Gu Qinan inserted an "18"-shaped candle, stood up, turned off the light, and was the first to sing Happy Birthday.
Soon, Wu Yuan and Lin Xiaobin joined in, and they sang the whole song sparsely and happily.
Gu Qinan strictly followed the birthday process, insisting that Zhan Ming make a wish, blow out the candles and cut the cake.
Before eating the cake, Wu Yuan and Lin Xiaobin gave a gift, a pair of sneakers. Zhan Ming saw that the national brand was not particularly expensive. He knew that they wanted to help him, but he was afraid that he would not accept it. Zhan Ming only said "thank you", and accepted it without saying anything.
Gu Qinan didn't even bother to eat the cake, and excitedly took out a gift from his schoolbag. It was even specially wrapped in wrapping paper, a standard birthday present.
The three surrounded Zhan Ming, watching Zhan Ming unpack the gifts expectantly.
Lin Xiaobin said, "This little Nanzai said a long time ago that he has a gift ready. Let me see what kind of fairy gift it is."
Zhan Ming took out a small pure white square from the carton.
Wu Yuan: "What is this? Power bank?"
Gu Qinan shook his head happily: "No! It's a mini printer, just take a picture with your mobile phone, and you can type out the questions after connecting! This way, you can save a lot of time by sorting out the set of wrong questions!"
Zhanming three people: "..."
Lin Xiaobin admired: "So this is because you have used it and thought it was easy to use?"
Gu Qinan denied: "No, I haven't used it. I have few wrong questions, so I can't use it."
Lin Xiaobin and Wu Yuan burst into a burst of shocking laughter, which made Gu Qinan laugh.
Until the two left, Gu Qinan was still a little gloomy, and repeatedly asked Zhan Ming: "Is my gift stupid? Don't you like it?"
Zhan Ming took him into his arms, let him sit on his lap, kissed him and told him, "I like it very much."
Gu Qinan didn't believe it.
Zhan Ming vowed: "I will use it tomorrow, really. I like everything you gave me, I like everything."
Gu Qinan reluctantly believed that he thought the gift he gave was very practical and very good, why did he laugh at him
He pulled his schoolbag over again and said, "I have a second gift. They were here just now, so I'm sorry to take it out."
Gu Qinan took out a small bulging bag from his schoolbag and pulled the drawstring open. After taking it out, Zhan Ming realized that it was a short black down jacket, light and thin, almost weightless.
Gu Qinan smiled and said, "This is a couple's clothes, I have one that is exactly the same."
Zhan Ming tried it on and it fits perfectly.
Down jackets are very light and perfect for southern winters. In weather like this, a jacket and a long-sleeved T-shirt will suffice.
Gu Qinan wanted to buy clothes for Brother Zhan too.
He has seen Brother Zhan's wardrobe, except for four school uniforms for two seasons, there are only a few pieces of clothing. Although he is in class every week and doesn't wear his regular clothes often, he really wants to see Brother Zhan who is not wearing school uniforms, and wants to buy him a lot of clothes.
When shopping with his mother, he always thought that this Zhan brother would look good, and that one must look good too.
Finally, I ran back to the mall and bought an identical down jacket.
He didn't dare to buy too much, for fear that Brother Zhan would not accept it.
He still had a lot of gifts he wanted to give to Brother Zhan, but he was afraid of scaring him, so he had to give it slowly.
Brother Zhan took off his down jacket and cherished it and hung it in the closet.
The box containing the paper roses was kept in the closet, and there were so many paper roses in it that it was almost full.
Gu Qinan took out today's third gift from his schoolbag, a paper rose, and put it in Brother Jin's hand.
Zhan Ming pinched the little paper rose and whispered, "Bao, you gave me too much."
Gu Qinan leaned over and kissed the corner of his mouth: "I want to give you a lot more."
Zhanming took out another large cardboard box in the closet and opened the lid.
Only then did Gu Qinan realize that it was Lego.
It has been a long time since Zhanming received a gift.
He seldom had gifts.
When grandma was there, she would buy him some small toys. On a birthday, a birthday cake is the greatest gift. The little toy has long been broken, and I don't know where it went. Except for the box of very expensive Lego, Zhan Ming didn't leave any gifts.
When he lived at his uncle's house, he kept LEGOs in boxes and didn't put them together.
Because there is no place to put it.
But tonight, for some unknown reason, he suddenly wanted to put Lego back together again.
Put Lego together with his mini printer, paper roses, down jacket.
