Chapter 18: Christmas Eve's Surprise
After eleven years, Chen Tianyu resigned from his part-time job at the fund company, and bought a small second house with the salary and bonuses saved for three years plus the money earned from stock speculation. Recently renovated, you still need to put formaldehyde to move in. He hasn't told Li Yiyan about these yet, and he wants to surprise her at the right time.
Time flies so fast, in a blink of an eye, Wushi has changed from the beautiful scenery of late autumn to covered in silver, the snow is floating in the sky, and the snow white of Nanshan Mountain in the distance is beautiful.
Chen Tianyu's graduation thesis has been officially submitted, waiting for the defense in March, many students in the class are looking for jobs, and some have already left school. Chen Tianyu's master's supervisor was very satisfied with his academic ability and graduation thesis, and wanted to recommend him to continue his doctoral studies at Wuhan University, but he had his own career plan and politely declined.
Christmas is not a traditional festival in China, and students are not encouraged to celebrate it in any form on campus, which has also become one of the main tasks of the security captain's Christmas Eve patrol. Li Yiyan didn't take this matter to heart, anyway, she didn't ask for a sense of ritual like some girls.
At noon, when eating lunch in the cafeteria, Chen Tianyu waited for Li Yiyan in the restaurant as always, Li Yiyan walked over generously with a plate, looked at each other and smiled, and began to eat. Chen Tianyu gave Li Yiyan a handful of sweet and sour pork ribs reserved in a grid on the dinner plate, and Nunu said, "Eat quickly, it's still hot, I saw that there wasn't much left when I was eating just now, and it is estimated that you will be gone." β
Li Yiyan's heart was warm, and he asked knowingly, "Did you buy it for me?"
Chen Tianyu thought that he still needed to ask, he must have bought it for you, but he was naughty and wanted to tease her, so he said angrily, "There are too many dishes today, I can't finish eating, it's a pity to pour it out, I'll give you the rest." β
Xiu Yan's eyes turned, her red lips puffed out, and she whispered, "Okay, you can give me leftovers." After saying that, he put down his chopsticks.
Chen Tianyu hurriedly put on a smiling face, handed over the chopsticks, and said flatteringly, "Teasing you, eat quickly, it will be cold in a while." β
Seeing Li Yiyan take the chopsticks or pout, he said helplessly, "Yes, if you can't finish eating, I'll eat it, and I'll cover all your leftovers in the future." Li Yiyan was amused for a moment, glanced at the plate, gave Chen Tianyu the dishes that he thought he couldn't finish, and then ate by himself.
Seeing that the meal was finished, Chen Tianyu* asked, "It's okay at night, listen to my arrangement." β
Li Yiyan wiped his mouth and muttered, "Something." Wheat's face was shocked, "What's the matter?" raised his eyebrows, "Study!"
Chen Tianyu burst out laughing, daring to love this little girl to hold a grudge, she will not dare to offend easily in the future.
"Seriously, I'll take you somewhere in the evening, I'm sure you'll like it. Chen Tianyu said with a serious face.
Li Yiyan saw that he was so sincere, so he didn't scold him, his eyes narrowed, and he nodded.
Ok, see you at the school gate at 7pm.
Chen Tianyu specially explained that he would wear more clothes when he went out at night, Li Yiyan was thin and weak, and he was already afraid of the cold, so he simply wrapped himself in a big white. A red hat, a red scarf, cotton gloves, a white puffer jacket, navy jeans and a crossbody canvas bag are all set.
Chen Tianyu looked at the lovely person in front of him, unabashedly loved and liking, took Li Yiyan's crossbody bag with a smile on his face, carried it to himself, pulled her into the reserved taxi.
"Where are you going?" asked Xiuyan confusedly. "You'll find out when you go. "Chen Tianyu sold it.
The taxi stopped at the entrance of the shopping street, which is the pedestrian street, and the car can't get in unless you go down to the underground garage.
Chen Tianyu pulled Li Yiyan out of the car. Today's pedestrian street is so beautiful, the colored lights on both sides are extraordinarily enchanting in the night, go all the way forward, and hear the gongs and drums in front of you from a distance, so lively.
Li Yiyan couldn't hold back his curiosity, and pulled Chen Tianyu to urge him to leave quickly, wanting to see the excitement. Chen Tianyu muttered, "The front is the Shenpai Shopping Center, which should be an entertainment event on Christmas Eve, go for a while, don't worry." Immediately, I looked at my watch, and there were still 10 minutes before 8 o'clock, so I was in time.
There were many girls with fireworks on both sides of the pedestrian street, and the white light reflected their beautiful faces, Li Yiyan asked with envy, "Where do you sell this kind of hand-held fireworks, I want it too." β
Chen Tianyu smiled and muttered, "Wait, I'll put a big one for you later." β
The voice was too small, Li Yiyan didn't hear clearly, and asked again where to buy fireworks, Chen Tianyu saw that she was so eager, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll look for it, you just stand next to this stone pier and come back immediately." β
Li Yiyan nodded dotingly, leaned towards the stone pier, and watched Shen Junnan run to the supermarket opposite.
It was already dark in Wushi, and the wind was blowing slightly, Li Yiyan was still cold wearing gloves, and he directly stuffed the gloves into the pocket of his down jacket, and it was finally a little warmer.
Wait left and right, but I don't see Chen Tianyu come out, where has this guy gone, is he still in the supermarket? Wait a little longer.
Seeing that 10 minutes have passed, Chen Tianyu still hasn't come back, whether to go to the supermarket to look for him, hesitating, the clock inlaid in the Shenpai Shopping Center in the center of the commercial street began to tell the time on the hour, oops, it's 8 o'clock, why hasn't he come back yet.
At this time, a loud noise stunned Li Yiyan, and following the prestige, it was a ceremonial flower, one after another, hitting the endless sky. This will also forget about Chen Tianyu, staring at the sky intently, silently counting in his heart, a total of five rounds, after the fireworks exploded, they slowly dispersed in the sky.
At this time, Xiuyan was completely shocked, and the ceremonial flowers that exploded in the sky formed five big words "Yiyan I love you", and after 3 seconds, they faintly dispersed, leaving endless darkness.
"Do you like it?" Leng Buding said in a baritone voice, and Chen Tianyu held a bouquet of lilies in his hand and handed it to his eyes.
Li Yiyan looked at him dumbfounded, his eyes didn't blink, and Xiuyan still had a stunned expression.
Chen Tianyu shook his hand in front of her eyes, and joked seriously, "What's the matter?"
Li Yiyan didn't raise his head, and his eyes didn't leave Chen Tianyu's eyes, he pointed to the sky with his finger and asked inquiringly, "You put this?"
Chen Tianyu pursed his lips, leaned over, approached Xiuyan, and quipped, "Otherwise, what do you think?"
Li Yiyan stared at his face, which was only 20 centimeters away from him, and couldn't help but reach out and rub his face excitedly, and nodded with a smile, "I like it, thank you, Senior Brother Tianyu." β
Chen Tianyu grabbed Li Yiyan's shoulder with one hand, half-circled her, and didn't let her retreat, his head was closer, he raised his thick eyebrows, and said angrily, "If you like it, just give some benefits." With that, the thick lips leaned in.
Li Yiyan turned his head, dodged, and took advantage of Chen Tianyu's stunned time to escape from the side where he took the flower. Laughing and snatching the lily from his hand, he jumped to the side, "The flower loves it, thank you, but how do you know I like lilies?"
Chen Tianyu's thick lips trembled, yes, how could he know that when he bought it just now, he blurted out lilies to the flower shop owner. By the way, it was Shen Junnan who was drunk and yelled all night, she likes lilies, she doesn't like roses, she likes sweet and sour pork ribs, she doesn't like tofu, she likes warm summer, she doesn't like cold winter, she likes γγγγγγ
To love someone is to know her joys, sorrows, and sorrows, how can the bits and pieces of Li Yiyan and Shen Junnan be so easy to erase.
Thinking of this, Chen Tianyu's color lightened a little, and he smiled slightly, "I guess, girls like you should like lilies, the taste is fresh, not as strong as roses." β
"What kind of girl am I?" Li Yiyan stared, his eyes flickered, and his red lips were slightly raised.
Chen Tianyu lowered his thick eyebrows, strode over with bad intentions, supported his head with one hand, wrapped his thin waist with the other, kissed deeply on his forehead, raised his head to meet his eyes, and his eyes flashed like sparks, "It's the kind I like, only you." β
The blush of the beautiful face, especially the ears, although it was the forehead, it was also their first kiss, a little sudden.
Chen Tianyu knew that he was scared of her, folded his hands, and hurriedly apologized.
Looking at his tall man of more than 180 centimeters, hunched over, and vigorously pushing her, I don't know what he thought he had done to her, Li Yiyan snorted and laughed, and then pretended to be aggrieved, "Chen Tianyu, I'm hungry." β
"Okay, let's go, I booked a place, but Chen Tianyu listens better than Senior Brother Chen, so I will call me Chen Tianyu in the future." β
"Then what kind of business, you can't call the name directly, the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation, you must respect the elderlyγγγγγγ β
"Besides, I'll kiss you!" Mai Xi's face came over again, and Li Yiyan stuck out his tongue and trotted. I only heard Chen Tianyu behind him say in a threatening tone, "Call me Tianyu in the future, I'm not that old." β
Chen Tianyu took Li Yiyan upstairs to the Shen Pai Shopping Center, there are many tasteful and delicious restaurants on it, Shen Qiuhan invited him to eat several times, and today he also took this little girl to taste the tall French Western food.
