October 27 is a very important day for Xu Shiyao, because it is her birthday.

It's just that on this year's birthday night, no one seems to be by Xu Shiyao's side. Because Chen Shu was called back by his mother, and Chu Li went to participate in the so-called Silin Conference.

Xu Shiyao in the business world is a popular figure after all, and there are many people who know her birthday. So whether it's for the sake of getting close or patting on the back, Xu Shiyao will receive a lot of gifts.

But Xu Shiyao knew that most of these people were business partners, and they only gave gifts out of politeness, and not many people congratulated them sincerely.

This is also the reason why Xu Shiyao refused the company to hold a birthday party for her.

In the more than ten years that Chu Li has been abroad, Xu Shiyao has gradually forgotten the feeling of birthday......

In the final analysis, the Xu family actually snatched it from her husband, so Xu Shiyao's vein is often treated coldly in the family, and she usually doesn't call the mother and daughter of the Xu family during the New Year's holidays, let alone birthdays.

Xu Shiyao hadn't seen any relatives since she could remember, because most of them had left Yannan City to manage branches in other provinces, or to start a new business.

In Xu Shiyao's memory, she only had a few birthdays with two people. One is Chu Li when he was young, and the other is Chen Shu, who has lived together in college for three years.

Mother Xu Xin was too busy with work, so she has not celebrated her birthday with her mother since Xu Shiyao was born.

It was already nine o'clock in the evening, and Xu Shiyao, who couldn't sleep in the room, walked down the stairs alone.

She didn't turn on the lights, but walked to the kitchen by the moonlight and street lights that came from the windows of the hall. She poured herself a cup of coffee and sat down at the table, her eyes staring at the door, not knowing what she was thinking.

With less than three hours left before her birthday ended, Xu Shiyao felt that she was going to have another birthday today that no one celebrated.

Xu Shiyao looked up at the whole thing hanging on the wall, and listened to the sound of "ticking and ticking", she slowly closed her eyes.

Xu Shiyao's consciousness gradually entered her own spiritual world, and there was a door in that world, as long as anyone was outside that door, then which personality would occupy Xu Shiyao's body.

Pushing the door in, Xu Shiyao walked into her subconscious room

Space. There is a room full of innocence, with all kinds of cute dolls, as well as all kinds of dolls, and the layout of the room is also very princess-style, which is the place that Xu Shiyao's master desires the most in his heart.

At this time, Xu Shiyao's master personality was sitting on the carpet in the center of the room, playing with a circle of dolls. She still looks exactly the same as when she was about ten years old, and she hasn't grown up at all.

Xu Shiyao's main personality looked at her sub-personality, her eyes widened, full of doubts, but very cute.

"Do you want to continue to wait?" Xu Shiyao's deputy said, "He must have forgotten his agreement with you a long time ago, and he won't come back to celebrate your birthday." ”

"No, it won't. The host blushed and said, "Brother Xiao Ce must have not remembered to celebrate my birthday because he was abroad before, and now that he is back, he will definitely remember my birthday." ”

"Alas, I will only keep watch for you until twelve o'clock, and there is work to be done to-morrow. ”

When Xu Shiyao's sub-personality just came out of his subconscious, there happened to be a knock outside the villa gate.

Who is it?

Xu Shiyao frowned suspiciously, and used her financial resources to gently open the door.

"Happy Birthday to You ~~ Happy Birthday to You ~~"

Who would have thought that as soon as this door opened, Chen Shu, who was supposed not to come over tonight, actually held a cake with a candle lit and cautiously walked in from outside the door.

Chen Shu walked in front of her in Xu Shiyao's slightly surprised eyes, and after gently putting down the cake, he took out a chic small crown from his waist and put it on Xu Shiyao's head.

"Happy birthday, Shi Yao, congratulations on being a year older, hehe. ”

Xu Shiyao said angrily: "Why did you come over, didn't you say that you won't come back today?"

"Of course, it's to surprise you, and lie to you. Eh, Shiyao, you hurry up and make a wish to blow out the candles, they are about to go out. Hurry up. ”

At Chen Shu's strong request, Xu Shiyao reluctantly made a wish and blew out the flickering candlelight.

Chen Shu applauded and turned on the light: "Shi Yao, I also prepared a gift for you." ”

As he spoke, Chen Shu took his small bag from outside the door, took out a book from inside, and handed it to Xu Shiyao

。 Xu Shiyao raised her eyebrows and looked at it, the title of the book was "How the Thesis Was Made".

"Hehe, Shi Yao, look at how about I help me write my essay for your birthday today. ”

Xu Shiyao pushed the book back: "It's been half a semester since the start of your senior year, you don't want to tell me that your paper hasn't moved a word?"

"Haha, it's really my best friend, who really knows me. ”

"If you are really my best friend, then you should know that I can't help you, and find a way to go yourself. ”

"Okay. Chen Shu didn't force it, but retreated and said, "Then how about showing me your paper, I know you've finished it." ”

Xu Shiyao sighed: "I'll send it to your mailbox tomorrow." ”

"Yes, I knew Shi Yao, you would definitely agree. ”

After Chen Shu nodded with satisfaction, he took out a box from his backpack: "Shi Yao, I still have a gift, this is a jade pendant that I finally got from my brother, so I will give it to you." After all, after this time, I don't know if there will be a chance to celebrate your birthday next time. ”

Chen Shu opened the box, and inside was a rather delicate jade pendant, the priceless kind.

"I can't take it. Xu Shiyao took a sip of coffee.

"You'll just take it first. Although Chen Shu's eyes were a little reluctant, she still said, "At most... At most, next year for my birthday, you will give her to me as a birthday present. ”

"Okay. ”

"You're going to have to put it away. Chen Shu took out a knife from the kitchen as he spoke, "Then let's divide the cake, come, the birthday star will cut the first knife." ”

When Xu Shiyao took the knife and was about to cut it, Chen Shu suddenly shouted "Wait a minute", and then opened his hands to hug Xu Shiyao from behind.

"What's wrong?"

"Shi Yao, I have a third gift hidden in the cake, you have to be careful when cutting it. ”

"Inside the cake?"

"yes, it makes sounds, can you hear it?"

When Xu Shiyao listened carefully, she could indeed hear "Di... Backbite... tick" sound.

Chen Shu said faintly: "That's a ...... Bomb!"
