Chapter 121: Suppressed Emotions
The boy never expected that he would see such a scene when he entered the room, and he suddenly felt very regretful in his heart, maybe he shouldn't have followed the Grim Reaper in at all, but went directly to the place called the Soul Realm. In this way, he can still have a beautiful thought in his heart, and he still feels that Xiaoxue likes herself as much as she likes her.
The candles on the cake burned quickly, but what puzzled Lin Yu was that Xiaoxue didn't make any moves next. She neither hugged her palms together to make a wish, nor blew out the candles that were about to burn, but just quietly watched them burn, the light of the candles reflected on Xiaoxue's face, Xiaoxue's eyes were close to a state of godlessness.
It wasn't until the first candle burned out that the flame met the cream and made a brief snort, and then quickly dimmed, Xiaoxue's expressionless face suddenly twitched, and then two tears flowed from the corners of her eyes without warning...
The candles on the birthday cake were extinguished one by one, and Xiaoxue seemed to have completely forgotten that she should blow them out now, her body was shaking, her nose and mouth were not making any sound, but tears were flowing down her cheeks like streams.
This is a moving scene, a birthday cake, candles that are burning shorter and shorter, and a girl crying silently, Lin Yu realized that Xiaoxue was not indifferent to the boy's death, she just kept suppressing her emotions, until the lights went out in the dead of night and she began to celebrate her birthday alone, all her emotions exploded at this moment.
The boy standing next to Lin Yu couldn't stand it anymore, he found that he doubted how naïve Xiaoxue liked him, although the feelings between them would not be put on their lips every day, but the feeling of being dependent on each other knew better than anyone else in their hearts. The boy has never seen Xiaoxue cry so sadly, because Xiaoxue he knows has always been a very shy and introverted girl, she never shows too much of her emotions, and prefers to draw her feelings in her comics.
The boy still remembers that when he asked Xiaoxue if he wanted to be his girlfriend, Xiaoxue just lowered her head and replied "um". At that time, the boy was a little disappointed in his heart, because he felt that Xiaoxue might not like him so much, otherwise he would not have behaved so calmly when he agreed to dating.
But the next day, the boy received a cartoon drawn by Xiaoxue himself, and the background of the painting was borrowed from one of the cartoonist Jimmy's famous works "Go Left to Right", and the content of the cartoon is the scene where the hero and heroine meet in the circular viewing pool.
Xiaoxue drew the male and female protagonists in it as herself and the boy, she was holding a stack of comic paper in her hand, and the boy was hanging a single-lens reflex camera around his neck, and the two people went in opposite directions, but because of the circular edge of the pool, they still met.
Xiaoxue handwrote a sentence in the upper right corner of the manga, "I heard that there will be a day when parallel lines meet..."
When the boy received this cartoon, he immediately understood, Jimmy is a cartoonist that Xiaoxue likes very much, and he has also watched the movie of the same name of "Go Left to Right", in which there is a movie song that is popular all over the streets, "Meet".
Although Xiaoxue only said one word when she promised herself, she spent one night drawing this cartoon that represented her heart, which is how Xiaoxue expressed her inner emotions. Boys sometimes feel that Xiaoxue's feelings are like a suspended iceberg, floating on the surface of the sea can only be seen by people, but the part hidden in the sea may be too large to be imagined.
The same is true for the boy now, he watched Xiaoxue desperately suppress his feelings, but the tears couldn't be stopped like spring water. The boy didn't dare to think about how much of the iceberg in Xiaoxue's heart was not expressed.
The boy turned his body to face Xiaoxue, he couldn't keep looking at Xiaoxue's heartbroken appearance, and he couldn't do anything about it anymore, he couldn't give Xiaoxue another hug, and even a word of comfort could not be said again.
It wasn't until the last candle on the birthday cake was about to go out that Xiaoxue's eyes regained some of their look, and she realized that she should make a birthday wish.
"Tianhao, in fact, I know that you forgot my birthday. A week ago, I asked you if you wanted to go on a business trip today, and you told me that you couldn't be sure because there were so many variables in your work. I was a little annoyed to hear this answer, of course I knew that you might have to go on a business trip at any time when you received a shooting assignment, I just wanted to test if you had my birthday in mind, and you did forget it.
I thought that we hadn't been together for more than four years, and you didn't even remember my birthday, but I remember all the anniversaries and your birthday. Whenever that day is approaching, I think about what you want most right now, and then get a beautiful holiday gift ready early.
In the next few days, I deliberately behaved a little cold to you, and once you called a day early and asked me if I wanted to go to dinner together, because you found that a new western restaurant had just opened nearby, and it was said that the price was affordable and the taste was very good. But I told you that I had to work overtime that day, so I didn't go to the western restaurant, in fact, I didn't have a temporary job at all that day, I deliberately stayed in the company and went back late. ”
Speaking of this, Xiaoxue sighed softly, and she found that the candle on the cake had burned to the bottom, so she lit the extra candle and stuck it on it.
"Now that I think about it, if only I had gone to that western restaurant with you, and then I went to eat a steak by myself, I always imagined what it would be like if you sat across from me.
At that time, I was alone for a few days and sulked, but then I gradually figured out that maybe this is the real ordinary life. Since you forgot my birthday, then I will prepare a birthday cake and birthday gift by myself, and then say to you on the day of my birthday, Tianhao, today is my birthday, can you celebrate with me?
Later, I went to the cake shop to order a birthday cake, and bought a set of Jimmy's latest picture book, I packaged it as a birthday gift, and then hid it under your closet, thinking that when I was eating the birthday cake, you could take it out of the closet and give it to me. ”
