Wang Heng didn't care about Shen Yexi's abnormality. After all, in his opinion, this assistant's performance is already very good, at most, he occasionally thinks a little more, although he doesn't know what this guy's brain is making up, but as long as he abides by the requirements of the post and completes the work seriously, it doesn't matter what else matters.

It's just that on the issue of girls' adult gifts, Shen Yexi doesn't seem to have any particularly good ideas.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Wang, I haven't given many gifts to girls......"

Hearing the assistant say this, Wang Heng was slightly surprised: "Haven't you ever given a gift to a girl?" Haven't you been in a relationship? ”

Shen Yexi: "Yes, I haven't been in love. ”

Wang Heng: "You're thirty, haven't you talked about it yet?" ”

Shen Yexi was a little helpless: "Mr. Wang, don't be heartbroken...... And I really think that career is more important than love. ”

"I see."

So Wang Heng understood that he couldn't hear any useful advice from Assistant Shen. But fortunately, he also had a little bit of thinking, and he thought completely on his own, so it wasn't a big problem.

Even if the gift itself is not very brilliant, at least the process of giving the gift is very sincere, which should be enough.

The two sat down separately and ate a take-out box lunch.

After eating, Wang Heng threw the lunch box in the trash and continued to write code. And Shen Yexi threw his lunch box into the same trash can, then lifted the garbage bag and took it outside to throw it away.

Because the only resident employee in the office is himself, Shen Yexi did not hire a cleaning staff.

When he came back from throwing out the garbage, he saw that Wang Heng was still writing code.

After an hour, Shen Yexi took a glass of water and saw that Boss Wang was still writing.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Wang Heng finally stretched his waist: "It's done, call it a day and go home." ”

The corners of Shen Yexi's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but complain - this is your company, boss, you've been busy for so long and then said 'call it a day', why don't you have the consciousness to be a capitalist at all?

Early in the morning of this day, after Ye Xun opened his eyes, he lay on the bed for a long time.

Staring at the ceiling, the girl suddenly remembered that today seemed to be her birthday...... But her family is not around, and the people she likes are not around, which makes her feel bored.

Ye Xun covered his face with the quilt and said to himself: "What is the meaning of those rituals? ”

That's right, the so-called birthday celebration is nothing more than a ritual in the final analysis. Time flows smoothly, what is the essential difference between the day before and the day after the age of 18? Why is it worth commemorating and celebrating?

Suddenly, the text message prompt on the mobile phone sounded.

Ye Xun grabbed his mobile phone and glanced at it, it was a text message from his father:

The girl put down her mobile phone and lay stunned for a while, then she heard the door control bell.

She put on her tracksuit, walked over, and opened the door to the house. After waiting for less than a minute, someone sent the exquisite gift box to the girl.

"Hello, I'm the delivery man from Angros, this is your ...... Just sign it here, thank you. ”

The delivery man who finished his job turned and left.

Ye Xun closed the door, then put the gift box on the coffee table and opened it.

Inside is a round birthday cake, with a light blue color and rainbow chocolate decoration, which is very beautiful and quite girly.

"But I don't eat cream...... Ye Xun sighed, "And I can't finish such a big cake." ”

After a long period of melancholy, the girl suddenly thought of an idea. Under the pretext of 'helping to eat cake', can you call Wang Heng over and leave his footprints on his adult birthday by the way?

But soon she remembered that she had heard Han Yixuan say not long ago that Wang Heng would be very busy during this winter vacation. First of all, it is something in the company, and then I have to go back to my hometown for the New Year, so it is probably difficult to find free time, right?

However, if you don't ask, how do you know if he's free today?

Just when Ye Xun hesitated, the Q prompt of the mobile phone sounded in the pocket of his sweatpants.

Ye Xun took out his mobile phone and saw the prompt of Q mailbox, this is a new email, from ...... Wang Heng.

The girl suddenly became energetic.

Why did Wang Heng send an email today? Is it because he knows his birthday today, so he also prepared a birthday present? No, considering it's an email, it should only be birthday congratulations or something...... But it doesn't matter, even if he doesn't have a gift, it's great just that he remembers his birthday.

She ran back to her bedroom, turned on her computer, and clicked on the new email in her mailbox.

Then, she saw a bunch of math problems.

"What is this? Birthday gift should not be an electronic test paper? ”

The girl pressed her temples and felt a faint headache.

Could it be that Wang Heng doesn't actually know his birthday, and this email is just something like winter vacation tutoring?

"But no, there are so few questions that it won't take you two hours to complete......"

Such a question, and it doesn't seem to be very difficult, for the top five girls in the class in the final math scores, it is too pediatric.

Could it be that there is any deeper meaning in this?

Ye Xun stared at those topics, looked at them twice, and suddenly realized a problem.

None of these math problems are geometric proofs, and all of them should have answers to letters or numbers. So is there anything special hidden in the answer to the question?

It just so happens that the first question is a set, a fairly simple fill-in-the-blank question.

Ye Xun glanced at it, thought about it for a while, and found that the answer was two numbers - 1 and 8.

Does this have anything to do with his eighteenth birthday?

Thinking so, the girl filled in the numbers 1 and 8. Immediately after, a square pattern pops up in the mailbox attachment. Without thinking, just a glance is enough to understand that the pattern is part of a map.

"Oh my God, what kind of ...... is this" Ye Xun was shocked, "Is this a puzzle game!" ”

The girl's eyes lit up, she found a paper and pen for calculations, and started the rest of the problems on the computer. Next, the questions became more and more difficult, but she became more and more serious. After all, as more and more problems are solved, the map becomes more complete, and the mystery gets closer and closer.

What kind of information do you get when you unravel them all? What surprises will the map reveal?

Ye Xun's curiosity has been completely aroused.

As for the birthday cake given by his father, he was still lying lonely on the coffee table. After all, even without these puzzles, the girl didn't really want to eat it.
