(15) Birthday

Qiu Yan and Wang Jing successfully passed the assessment, and the two of them were very happy and decided to celebrate. The way girls celebrate is simple, nothing more than eating, buying, buying.

After getting off work, Wang Jing took Qiu Yan to the pedestrian street, and the two happily strolled from one store to another. Qiu Yan found that although the clothes in these stores looked ordinary, the prices were ridiculously expensive. Wang Jing tried on several skirts and finally bought a black gauze skirt. Qiu Yan was ruthless and bought a red dress. After buying clothes, the two of them each bought a pair of high heels. During the meal, Wang Jing said that she wanted to do her hair, and Qiu Yan said that she was tired from shopping and wanted to go home to sleep, so the two separated after the meal.

Back home, Qiu Yan looked at the "high-end goods" she bought back, both happy and distressed. She took out the earrings in the box and put them on, and shook them in the mirror with a smile. This pair of silver tassel drop earrings is her favorite because of the good price.

She had just passed her newly purchased dress through the water when her phone rang suddenly. She thought that it must have been Han Fei calling, so she happily ran over and picked up her mobile phone to see that it was Shen Peng. She pressed answer with some disappointment.

Shen Peng: "Qiu Yan, are you busy right now?" ”

Qiu Yan: "It's okay. Is there something wrong with you? ”

Shen Peng: "I want to celebrate your birthday, I don't know if it's convenient?" ”

Qiu Yan has never met since she met Shen Peng by chance, but Shen Peng has called to invite, Qiu Yan stays with Han Fei almost every weekend, so she bluntly told Shen Peng that she has a boyfriend, and hopes that Shen Peng will not call again, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings. Shen Peng agreed, and he hadn't contacted Qiu Yan again for a long time.

"Thank you, forget about your birthday, I'm not a birthday anymore." Qiu Yan awkwardly refused. Shen Peng's words reminded her of those birthday gifts that Shen Peng had given her.

Shen Peng's heart was sour, and his voice became hoarse, "Won't he give you a birthday?" ”

"Who?" Qiu Yan didn't understand for a while, "Oh, you said Han Fei, he doesn't know my birthday." ”

Shen Peng: "If I invite you out to meet as a fellow countryman, will he embarrass you?" ”

Qiu Yan listened to Shen Peng's somewhat sad voice and felt distressed inexplicably, "No." It's okay to meet, don't celebrate your birthday, I'm such an adult, and it's too hypocritical to celebrate my birthday. ”

Shen Peng: "Okay, then can you come out now?" I'm right at the door of your community. ”

Qiu Yan was taken aback, and didn't understand how Shen Peng found here, "You wait a while, I'll come out immediately." ”

Shen Peng watched Qiu Yan slowly walk towards him, how familiar this picture is, but unfortunately this girl no longer belongs to him. He bowed his head with mixed feelings.

Qiu Yan looked at Shen Peng and asked the doubts in his heart, "How do you know that I live here?" ”

"I just saw you at the World Trade Plaza, I wanted to call you, you got on the bus, and I followed."

Qiu Yan smiled: "Are you so idle? Also stalking me. ”

"Just go for a walk." Shen Peng smiled embarrassedly, "I bought you a birthday gift, although it's not a birthday, but the gift should be accepted." ”

Qiu Yan took the boutique gift box handed by Shen Peng and asked curiously, "What is it?" ”

"You open it and see if you like it." Shen Peng said as he helped Qiu Yan take the outer box.

Qiu Yan opened the small box and saw that it was a sparkling necklace, "Isn't this chain very valuable?" ”

"It's not expensive. Do you like it? Shen Peng looked at Qiu Yan expectantly.

Qiu Yan nodded and said, "I like it." But you still don't want to give me anything in the future, it's awkward. ”

Shen Peng nodded, "Qiu Yan, can I be your brother?" We can't go back to the way we used to be, but we won't be strangers, will we? We are fellow villagers, and we can all be said to be alone in this city, and it is better to take care of each other when there are difficulties than to carry them alone. ”

"Okay, let's be brother and sister." Qiu Yan readily agreed, "The past is written off, and you will be my brother from now on." ”

Shen Peng smiled from the bottom of his heart, "Okay! Let's go, brother will take you to eat delicious food. ”

Qiu Yan and Shen Peng walked along the tree-lined path by the lake and chatted, and the evening breeze blew gently, bringing the coolness of the lake water. Shen Peng said that he did not run away irresponsibly, but that his mother lied to him that he would help Qiu Yan through the difficult time. In the past few years, he has been to Qiu Yan's house to make up for his mistakes, but Qiu Yan's parents scolded him and threw all the gifts he brought on the street......

Qiu Yan listened to it and was completely relieved in her heart, "We have had happiness and have suffered enough, although the ending is regrettable, but being able to be brother and sister is also a kind of fate." Brother, do you want me to find you a girlfriend? ”

Shen Peng smiled: "No need for the time being, I'm very busy now, and I don't have time to have a girlfriend." ”

The two of them sat on a chair in the park and talked about the past and the present, eight or nine years seemed to be a big dream, and now the dream is still there. Should we be rejoicing? Should it be grateful?

Late at night, Qiu Yan rejected Shen Peng's suggestion to send him back: "I can go back by myself, you can go quickly, don't be locked out like me back then." ”

Shen Peng smiled and waved his hand to Qiu Yan, "Okay, let's get back together another day." Qiu Yan also smiled and waved his hand, and slowly walked back home.

This year is really good luck, work and life are all good, Qiu Yan looked up at the bright moon in the sky, smiled and prayed: I hope the entrance exam will be as smooth.
