"I'll put the food here, you eat early and rest early." After Ye Qiu said this, he returned to his room, leaving Jiang Cheng alone and standing silently.

After that, for a few days, Ye Qiu and Jiang Cheng didn't speak as before, but every time Ye Qiu brought something back, he silently ate it.

On August 20th, the supper was different from the previous one, it was a small cream cake with a strawberry on top, and a note that had not been seen since the first day also reappeared, with only four words on it: Happy Birthday!

Jiang Cheng's heart suddenly tightened, and she looked at the direction of Ye Qiu's room with burning eyes, how did she know?

And at this time, he also realized that this was the first time in so many years that someone had given him a birthday, and even the eldest brother didn't wish him a happy birthday.

He couldn't help but think of what Ye Qiu said that day, was the eldest brother really good to him? Otherwise, why don't you even know his birthday?

He pursed his lips, sometimes when he had doubts in his heart, the crack of that doubt would open wider and wider, although he didn't want to admit it, he had already believed Ye Qiu's words.

Jiang Cheng picked up the spoon and put the big and red strawberry in his mouth, it was really fragrant and sweet, I don't know what she likes, he can also give it to her on her birthday.

As soon as this thought passed, his hand holding the spoon paused, when did Ye Qiu's birthday come?

He recalled that in the years since Ye Qiu entered the family, she never seemed to have a birthday?

Also, even her mother doesn't care, who would think about giving her a birthday?

Is it Jiang Hongcai, who doesn't care, Jiang Yi, who is hypocritical, Jiang Miaomiao, who is ignorant and naïve, or who is cold and selfish?

No, Ye Qiu is living a difficult life in this family like an outsider, in fact, she is indeed an outsider, isn't she? After all, even the account has not been transferred.

Thinking like this, Jiang Cheng couldn't eat the cake that Jiang Cheng sent to his mouth, he found a plate from the kitchen, and then carefully put the intact part into the plate, and walked to Ye Qiu's door.

The other members of the family all lived upstairs, and only Ye Qiu lived in the nanny room downstairs, and Jiang Cheng couldn't say anything in his heart.

"Knock knock ......" hesitated for a while, but he finally knocked on Ye Qiu's door.

"Who?" Hearing the voices of people and the movement of chairs made him nervous.

But when man stood in front of him, his heart calmed down again.

"You...... What are you doing here? Seeing him standing in front of him with half of the cake, Ye Qiu's heart was sweet, he had worked hard for so long, and finally covered this hard stone with heat.

"Are you asking me to sing Happy Birthday?" She said with a smile.

Jiang Cheng didn't refuse coldly, but let out a stiff "um".

Ye Qiu's eyes widened in disbelief, and then his eyes bent into a crescent moon, and he sang in a low voice: "I wish you a happy birthday, I wish you a happy birthday...... Happy living in Jiangcheng! ”

She actually sang it, and Jiang Cheng's heart flowed through a warm current, and her throat tightened for a while.

"Thank you!" He said stiffly, then handed the cake to her, "Please eat the cake." ”

Ye Qiu didn't say that she made this cake herself, but took it with a smile, and then took a big bite: "It's so sweet!" ”

Oh, yes! This cake is so sweet!

After the cake was eaten, Jiang Cheng still stayed where he was, and Ye Qiu showed a puzzled look again: "What's wrong?" Anything else? ”

"How long is your birthday?" Jiang Cheng stared at Ye Qiudao.

Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment, knowing that he was asking about his birthday, it seemed that he had really been slowly changing.

"What? Do you want to know? And then you want to celebrate my birthday too? Ye Qiu looked at him with a smile, and his tone was very relaxed, "But you don't have a chance this year, my birthday has passed." ”

"Which day?" He asked stubbornly.

"July 20th."

It turned out that their birthdays were the same day, only the month and year were different.

When Jiang Cheng heard the news, he habitually pursed his lips again and didn't say much.

But when Ye Qiu returned to the room the next day, she found that there were many more things in the room that did not belong to her.

There were many colorful princess dresses, and a plush bear that took up most of her bed, although these dresses looked very expensive, Ye Qiu really didn't have the confidence to wear them.

"You bought the stuff in my room?" She walked to the dining table and asked Jiang Cheng, he was the only one in the family who would do this.

"Hmm." He came out of his throat with this one sound.

"Let's go back tomorrow."

"Why?" He jerked his head up at her, didn't she forgive her indifference? Are you blaming yourself for not remembering her birthday?

"Don't think about it, that bear is too big, my room is already small, how can I sleep when I put that bear in? And those princess dresses. Ye Qiu took a deep breath, "I don't have the face to wear out, I'm too ashamed." ”

Jiang Cheng didn't give up, and said stubbornly: "I asked Han Fei about them, and they all said they were good-looking." ”

What he didn't finish talking about was that he actually thought it looked good, Ye Qiu must be good to wear, Jiang Miaomiao has so many princess dresses, why didn't Ye Qiu have them? Since her mother didn't buy it for her, then he, the second brother, would make up for it.

"Your friends are all straight men!" Ye Qiu asked speechlessly.

"What is a straight man?" Jiang Cheng asked her rhetorically.

Well, Ye Qiu shrugged helplessly and said that she knew, and she was sure that it was a straight man.

In order not to hurt the trace of family affection he had finally saved up, Ye Qiu said very tactfully: "Second brother, I am no longer a little girl like Miaomiao, such a gorgeous princess dress will be laughed at by others if I pass it on, and I am now working in the Dutch kitchen, and I don't have time to wear it, school is about to start, and I have to wear a school uniform every day, so it is a waste to put it there, so it is better to return it." ”

Jiang Cheng didn't speak, saying that he was a little aggrieved and self-blaming, it turned out that he couldn't do anything well, and he thought he was good for her, but in fact, it didn't have any effect.

As soon as Ye Qiu saw his sad mood, he knew that he was thinking about it, and took the opportunity to say, "Why don't you do this, don't you just want to compensate me for giving me a birthday gift?" Would you like to promise me a request as a gift? ”

"What requirements?"

"You promise me first, and I promise you that this request will not be very vexatious."

"Okay, you say." Jiang Cheng agreed very simply, and he didn't know how many brain cells he would die in the next two years because of this sentence.

"Promise me to study hard and get into a key university." Ye Qiu said with a smile.

Jiang Cheng was a little unhappy, not only because he had to study hard in the future, but also because Ye Qiu didn't think about himself at all, obviously it was a birthday gift for her, why was he still planning for himself?

"Oh, don't be unhappy, you can tutor me if you have good grades, you know, my grades are very bad and poor." The tone of her speech was very sincere, Jiang Cheng felt that since he had agreed, he couldn't go back, wasn't it just learning? Surely he could.
