Chapter 15: I'm Twenty-One Years Old
Zhao Yu seemed a little naïve, his eyes were blinking 'rattling'. However, Shen Mengting on the other side didn't know how to answer this question.
Outside the Qing City, the reason why their group has been able to survive so far is because of Zhao Yu's sudden madness. If it weren't for the crazy people who made the power of the heavens and the earth to collapse, it is estimated that Shen Mengting would not have been able to defeat the powerful Saurons.
Shen Mengting glanced at Zhao Yu leisurely, she really couldn't answer this question.
"What's wrong? You guys...... Huh?"
Shen Mengting deliberately avoided Zhao Yu's gaze and chose to look away, "Zhao Yu, do you want to know the answer?"
Zhao Yu didn't think that Shen Mengting would ask back, so he froze his face, "Ahh......hh
"What do you think of it...... Do you have to know, or do you think we're hiding something from you?" Shen Mengting muttered a lot of words again, but she didn't stop at important issues.
Zhao Yu seemed to understand something, and he also chose to look away, "Oh! it doesn't matter if you don't want to say it, I don't necessarily want to know anyway!"
Zhao Yu's current appearance is like a gas bag, and his mouth is pursed.
"Zhao Yu!" Shen Mengting sighed for this, "You are our most important partner! No matter what happens, I can't hide it from you! In the same way, I can't harm you anything! So you must not have any thoughts of resistance to me." You know, many things can't be explained in a few words! Things tend to have more ambiguity, and it is the most meaningful for people's physical and mental health!"
Zhao Yu was a little dizzy by the unclear truth. He quickly glanced at Shen Mengting, but in the end, only a weak 'oh' word burst out of his mouth.
Seeing this, Shen Mengting nodded her head with reassurance, although she knew that Zhao Yu's heart at the moment was not completely moved. But as far as the current situation is concerned, she is not allowed to bother with some unnecessary thoughts.
Now, she must devote all her energy to the enemies of Sauron who are about to attack.
Of course, Zhao Yu was also very clear about this, so he chose to continue to be silent. In fact, he didn't want Shen Mengting to work too himself, Zhao Yu was very clear about the current situation, so naturally he wouldn't ask anything more.
It's just that the question of 'how they defeated the powerful Saurons in the end' will definitely be engraved in Zhao Yu's heart forever and forever, and it will almost be difficult to volatilize.
"Well, Zhao Yu! It seems that you have woken up and will no longer drill the tip of the horns!" Looking directly at Zhao Yu, Shen Mengting slowly took a deep breath as if she was relieved.
Zhao Yu naturally reluctantly relaxed his emotions and became more obvious. He tried to scratch his head, and his neck shrank in a daze, "Ahhh But ......"
"Huh?" Shen Mengting's brows furrowed, "What's the matter?" Zhao Yu, do you still have something to hold in your heart?"
Zhao Yu blinked quickly and walked directly to the side. His pace was not too fast, but because of the small size of the house, he soon came to the window.
He subconsciously wanted to open the window, but because of the previous lesson, he still prevented his instinctive reaction. He flicked his arm and turned.
"I'm not thinking about anything! I'm just ...... Some things are still relatively obvious, so I might get caught up in them!"
"Ahh
"Oh, actually, it's not a thing! You can say I'm thinking too much, but ......" Zhao Yu walked to another corner of the room, his steps were really full of timidity, there was a kind of lightness and quietness like a kitten's walking, "but I just think there is such a thing! If one person, two people are enough." But now it seems that all my partners will be ...... ...... me"
Zhao Yu didn't want to release his words again, he just threw a begging glance at Shen Mengting.
"Zhao Yu, what's going on?"
"Miss Shen Mengting! I'm just thinking about a question! Did I do anything wrong when I was in a coma?"
Suddenly, Shen Mengting's whole body tightened, and with an excessive sense of panic, she quickly gasped, "Zhao Yu......! Did you find anything?"
"I ......" Zhao Yu lowered his head, his face was a little ashamed, "I'm not overthinking or cranky! But these days, I really feel it." Trying to exchange breaths, he released the words again, "The attitude of my partners towards me seems to have changed, they all seem to be ...... They were all a little scared of me! and they were all deliberately trying to stay away from me! And in this case, it all happened after I was unconscious! It seemed like I was ...... Did I do something wrong! Really! Miss Shen Mengting, can you answer me? Did I do something wrong that annoyed my companions?"
Zhao Yu's back leaned against the wall, and he also trembled, with the intention of curling up his body.
"Zhao Yu ......" Shen Mengting just wanted to get close to him, but was forced to stop by the other party's sense of resistance.
Shen Mengting has already made a clear truth, and the word 'companion' in Zhao Yu's mouth should actually include Shen Mengting.
"I'm not thinking too much! if it's one or two. But...... When I had been all the way before, I had noticed Dr. Jiang's attitude towards me, and she seemed to be really afraid of me, as if I was going to kill her. Then I went to ask her some questions, and she was prevaricating! Of course, this idea only officially exploded when I arrived at this barracks. Even Qian Hao and Shen Jun, who have always liked to make fun of me, seem to be very afraid of me.
"In the afternoon, I almost collided with them, only to be in a state of confusion as if they were about to flee. Even in the past, when they were so angry that they pushed me to get angry with me, I found it more pleasant than it is now as if I were a terrorist!"
Zhao Yu said a long list of words after a long absence, and there was a lot of helplessness in his tone.
Shen Mengting listened carefully, but she really didn't know how to respond. She's never going to be right! You're a terrorist! At that time, in the woods outside the Qing city, you could be described as a killing spree! You didn't just kill your enemies, but you were also merciless to your allies. The way you were at the time, anyone would be terrified!
Shen Mengting's eyelids were already a little sunken, and she really didn't know how to respond to Zhao Yu's question.
"That...... Miss Shen Mengting!"
Zhao Yu's words made Shen Mengting come back to her senses, and she used a slight cough to hide her panic, "Zhao Yu! I think I have made it very clear to you just now! Don't go to the tip of the bull's horns! Those partners who have been born and died with you are your most sincere friends, how can you think about them?"
Zhao Yu glanced at Shen Mengting again, "Oh, so you still think that I think too much, Qian Hao is still very kind to me!"
"Zhao Yu ......" Shen Mengting's brows furrowed, but the emotions she wanted to express were not normal anger and anger. The reason why she has this expression now is just a little helpless.
"Okay! You don't have to say it, anyway, I think too much!" Zhao Yu chose to turn around, he no longer faced Shen Mengting face-to-face, "I know! You don't need to emphasize anything, in short, I think too much!"
"Zhao Yu! Why are you always like that! As long as you don't like anything and speech, do you have to make this kind of resistance?"
"Ah! I didn't resist anything, that's why you think too much! I think very well now, I know that Qian Hao and they still use me as a partner!"
"Zhao Yu ......"
"Generalissimo, it's so late, you can go and rest, I'm going to sleep too!" Zhao Yu grumbled.
"You ......" Shen Mengting's heart began to gather anger, and she also took a sharp step forward.
But just as she was about to tell something, there was a knock at the door.
'Knock knock...... Knock knock knock ...... 'This is exactly the same as when Shen Mengting came in just now.
"Who? It's so late?" Zhao Yu's mind was first injected with this question. But in spite of the great confusion in his heart, he only muttered a slight sentence.
It was still Shen Mengting, she chose to stride directly to the door. While reaching out to open the door, she didn't forget to turn her head to confirm her gaze with Zhao Yu. She didn't get the message not to open the door, so she responded.
"Who is it?" Shen Mengting opened the door directly.
In an instant, the cold outside the house quickly rushed into the house, and the candles that were burning on the table were washed away.
It was none other than Jiang Jingwen who was standing at the door. When this girl saw Shen Mengting inside, her eyes widened instantly.
"Ahh......h Why are you in there?"
"I came to Zhao Yu to ask about something!" Shen Mengting replied directly without hesitation, she also knew that Jiang Jingwen should know the purpose of her coming here. After a long time, she straightened her chest, "What are you doing here?"
After looking at Jiang Jingwen for a long time, Shen Mengting was completely put away. Then, she looked at Jiang Jingwen's whole body again.
In the end, Shen Mengting saw a different scene, Jiang Jingwen was holding a small cake in her hand, and there were three rough candles with [river crab] inserted on it.
"Ahh......h
"Aren't we here to find Zhao Yu for something?"
Suddenly, a male voice sounded outside the door. Qian Hao's hippie smiling face rushed out from the door frame. Even though he had an unnatural look on his face, his movements were still reckless.
Qian Hao seemed to be deliberately posing for some handsome gesture, making it look like he was kneeling on one knee. His hands were also not idle, and he was dangling above his head with great fanfare.
"Hey, what are you doing like this?" Shen Mengting let out a void gaze.
"Of course we're here to find Zhao Yu!" another male voice came out, and Shen Jun burst out from the other side of the door frame.
So there were three people who came to visit Zhao Yu this time, namely Jiang Jingwen, Qian Hao and Shen Jun.
The three of them came, and one of them was still holding a cake in his hand? Shen Mengting was getting more and more unclear about what they were planning.
"Oh, Sister Mengting, we originally wanted to come with you, but we couldn't find you, but I didn't expect you to be here!" Jiang Jingwen smiled happily.
"Jingwen, what the hell are you here for?"
"Oh, Sister Mengting! You won't let us talk at the gate! You know, it's the cold winter season!"
After Jiang Jingwen's reminder, Shen Mengting herself also felt the biting cold wind hitting her face.
"Yes, it's very cold outside now!It's making me shiver!" Qian Hao slowly stood up, but the change in posture still couldn't resist the oily smile on his face.
"Yes, yes, let's go in and talk about it!" Shen Jundu stomped his feet.
Since this is the case, Shen Mengting also shifted her body, and she made way for her partners to enter.
When the three of them slowly entered the house, Shen Mengting chose to close the door. The moment the door was closed, the biting cold wind disappeared, replaced by the warmth of the room.
Looking at the entry of the three people, Zhao Yu was a little dumbfounded. He can say that he doesn't understand the reason why his partners are coming to him at this moment, and he can't understand the reason why Jiang Jingwen is holding a cake in her hand now.
This...... What the hell is going on? Zhao Yu suddenly showed a surprised look with his mouth half open.
"Oh! Sister Mengting! I really didn't expect you to be here! We really came to look for you, but you just weren't there! Maybe the marshal was busy enough, so we decided to take matters into our own hands!" Jiang Jingwen put the cake she was holding on the table.
This...... Zhao Yu looked at the cake, and the doubts in his heart were even greater.
The cake was not created by humans, it came from the work of the ancient elves of West Asia. Because of this, cakes can be said to be very high-end food. In the past, I have heard that rich and noble families used to use this food on their children's birthdays.
It was when Zhao Yu was still in Vortex Town, and he had heard that the mayor's daughter had bought a cake from the baker in the big town for her birthday.
Zhao Yu also wished that he would have this thing on his birthday, but he heard that cakes are really sky-high for ordinary families. Seeing his mother so tired from working in the fields, he was naturally embarrassed to make a request.
But what I didn't expect was that now I saw this product in the barracks. However, Zhao Yu was still in a completely sluggish state, and he still couldn't imagine the reason why Jiang Jingwen brought the cake here.
Unless......
Zhao Yu suddenly seemed to think of something, and he let it out with an 'ah'.
This sound attracted almost everyone's attention, and everyone turned their attention to Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu himself also knew that he seemed to be overreacting, so after shrinking his neck, he moved his body slightly to the side.
"Jingwen, what the hell are you doing here? Also, this cake is ......" Shen Mengting quickly pursed her mouth at the cake placed on the table.
Jiang Jingwen put her finger to her lips like a seller, but shortly thereafter, she clapped her hands competently, "Ah, Sister Mengting, don't you know what day it is?"
As if cooperating with Jiang Jingwen's performance, Qian Hao and Shen Jun were still dancing behind them.
"Huh? ...... today"
"Today is Zhao Yu's birthday! I remember what you said before, Zhao Yu was born in January. Isn't his birthday the last few days......? Of course, there are also Qian Hao and Shen Jun, so I think it's a good time to celebrate him today!"
Listening to Jiang Jingwen's words, Shen Mengting took a deep breath as if she had just woken up from a dream, "Ahh......h I did tell you!ah!" she then moved her face to Zhao Yu's side.
Zhao Yucai was the most surprised in the crowd, and his mouth seemed to be about to close.
"Zhao Yu, it's your birthday in the last few days, right?" asked Shen Mengting.
Zhao Yu opened his mouth and gasped for breath a little later, he only then remembered his birthday, in fact, it had been two days. His mother used to celebrate his birthday, but now he doesn't have to enjoy it anymore.
"It must have been the last few days! I remember what Sister Meng Ting said before, Zhao Yu's birthday is in early January! That's why I decided to deliver a cake today!"
"That's right, you're celebrating your birthday! That means you're going to be a year older from today!" Qian Hao kept muttering behind him.
Shen Mengting's face had completely turned into joy, without a sense of seriousness, "That's right! Zhao Yu! Look at how much everyone cares about you, they all came to celebrate your birthday!"
Zhao Yu was slowly approaching the desktop, "Ahhh......h
"Everyone's attitude towards you will never change!You Zhao Yu will always be one of our partners!" Shen Mengting said again.
"Ahh......h Although it is not so luxurious, it is full of the word 'heart'.
"Oops! get this thing, but it will waste a lot of my energy!" Jiang Jingwen kept wiping her face.
Indeed, there were a few stains on her fair skin.
"Then you have to thank Jingwen!"
Under Shen Mengting's prompting, Zhao Yu immediately gave him a bow, "Ahhh
Jiang Jingwen was a little embarrassed when she saw this, she hurriedly waved her hand, "Oh! Don't do this! This is what we all discussed, so thank you if you want to thank everyone!"
Zhao Yu slowly straightened up, "Oh! Thank you all then!"
He turned his head to look at the cake again, but what he actually thought was not as simple as the cake!
'I'll be twenty-one years old just after this birthday!'
