Chapter 380: Birthday

Sana took her hand and jumped down the steps, she was wearing a sky-blue princess dress, the fluffy skirt swayed with the movements, like a little butterfly dancing among the flowers.

She looked at Gu Mian for a few seconds, and pursed her red mouth: "I said I want to help you put on makeup, but you still don't agree, your face looks so bad, didn't you rest last night, okay?" ”

Gu Mian paused, raised her hand and touched her face, was her face really bad?

In order to apply to study abroad in the best schools, she needs to take many exams and interviews, and she must score top in each exam. Therefore, recently she has returned to the state of her senior year of high school, and she is even busier than her senior year.

If it weren't for the fact that it was her birthday, her uncle and mother would have asked her to come out and relax, and she would have planned to spend time in the library with the test questions.

Gu Mian touched her pigtails and said lightly, "Maybe, I didn't pay attention to the time when I did the question last night, and I accidentally passed midnight." ”

Sana sighed: "It's a pity, my mother's new lipstick is very beautiful, she doesn't let me move, but if you put on makeup, she will definitely be willing, she loves you the most." ”

People are small and big!

Gu Mian tapped the tip of her nose: "To be honest, do you want to play with your mother's lipstick and deliberately use me as an excuse." ”

My sister is so smart that she can guess it. Sana stuck out her tongue: "You can see it." ”

The two stood on the side and waited for a while, Sana was puzzled: "Aren't we going to order a cake, then go to the playground to play, and then go to the supermarket to buy ingredients for dinner?" Why don't you take a taxi? ”

Although it was a weekend, Tan Qian still had to go to the hospital as usual, and his wife happened to be idle at home, so she discussed with Tan Man to let the two children go out to play for a day, and then cook a table of delicious food for Gu Mian to celebrate her birthday in the evening.

Gu Mian: "We have to wait for someone." ”

Sana was even more puzzled, she shouldn't have anyone she knew here, and asked curiously, "Who?" ”

"It's my friend, he goes to school in England." Gu Mian said.

As soon as the words fell, a black sedan slowly drove over and stopped in front of the two of them.

Sana blinked her round eyes, how did she not know that her sister had such a handsome friend!

The boy pushed the door and got out of the car, standing in front of them, slender and straight like a tree, with an apologetic smile on his handsome face: "I'm sorry to be late, I was temporarily notified by the tutor to modify the design drawing." ”

The hair was blown to his face by the wind, and Gu Mian brushed it away with his hand: "I'm sorry to say to you, in fact, you don't have to come over to celebrate my birthday, your architecture department is so busy." ”

Cambridge University 1 is so easy to learn, just drawing design drawings takes a lot of time.

Lu Chen's expression was natural: "I missed your birthday last year, and this year you just happened to come to the UK, so close to me, my friend will help you celebrate whatever he says, unless you don't welcome me." Gu Mian, don't be so stingy, I'm just here to eat a birthday cake. ”

After a pause, he raised his eyebrows and said, "I didn't come empty-handed, I bought you a birthday present." ”

If he had been joking like this before, Gu Mian would have laughed out loud, but now he couldn't laugh. After being silent for a long time, she just said politely: "Thank you." ”

Lu Chen is such a smart person, how could he not see the changes in Gu Mian.

Her expression didn't look unusual, but her eyebrows lost their former brilliance, giving him the feeling that she had hidden a lot of things on her mind.

He learned about the changes in the Gu family from his uncle Xiang Yifeng, felt sorry for Gu Mian's experience, and wanted to comfort her, but he understood that not mentioning sad things at this time was the best comfort for her.

He believed that she would slowly come out of the shadows and return to the confident Gu Mian she had before.

The two chatted, and Sana, who was like a little radish, raised a hand: "Did you forget me?" ”

Lu Chen lowered his gaze to look at this mixed-race little girl, and hugged her up with a smile: "How could I forget you, sana, right?" ”

The little girl was surprised, "Do you know my name?" But we haven't seen each other. ”

Lu Chen said: "Your sister mentioned it once, and I remembered it." Hello, let me introduce myself officially, my name is Lu Chen, I am your sister's friend, and we will be friends in the future. ”

What could be happier than having a handsome new friend, Sana immediately threw her sister out of the clouds, and instead chatted with Lu Chen.

If he hadn't been driving in the driver's seat, she would have wanted to stick to him.

Lu Chen held the steering wheel in her hand, looking at Gu Mian's face through the rearview mirror, she didn't pay attention to him, turned her head to look out the window in a daze, and her sullen emotions could no longer be hidden.

He tried to liven up the atmosphere: "Little birthday boy, where are we going at the first stop?" ”

Gu Mian was stunned for a moment, and was about to answer, when another immature voice preemptively said, "Go to the cake shop!" I know of a nice cake shop where my mom took me last time and we ordered a birthday cake for my sister. ”

Lu Chen pursed his lips and retracted his gaze to concentrate on driving.

Following Sana's instructions, he found the cake shop.

As soon as the little girl got out of the car, she took Lu Chen's hand and pulled him to the cake shop, with Gu Mian following behind them.

The three of them stood in front of a row of cake models to choose, each of them was very exquisite, Lu Chen turned his head to look at her: "Which one do you like?" ”

Gu Mian glanced at it and had no idea, lowered his head and asked about the snack goods: "Sana, you can help my sister pick one." ”

Sana stood on tiptoe, leaned close to the glass cabinet with her little face, and couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, what to do, each one was delicious.

Despite this, she didn't forget who today's protagonist was, and said seriously: "Today is my sister's birthday, and it should be my sister who chooses the birthday cake." ”

Gu Mian bent down to take a closer look, Lu Chen saw her showing a tangled look, and his fingertips nodded through the glass: "I think that fruit cake is better." ”

Sana's eyes lit up, this friend's eyes were simply amazing!

The cake was three-tiered, with the top layer made of strawberries in the shape of a bunny, and the bottom two layers covered with a variety of fruits, decorated with black chocolate balls.

Gu Mian couldn't make up her mind, since he chose this and liked the appearance of Sana, she didn't have any opinion, turned around and went to the clerk to make a reservation, and said that she would come and pick it up in the evening.

When she was paying, she suddenly said, "Please don't put mangoes." ”

As soon as the words came out, she was stunned, and then realized what she said, and that sentence didn't pass her mind, and she blurted out completely subconsciously.

Ji Lingchuan is allergic to mangoes, and since the day she knew about it, she stopped eating mangoes, regardless of whether he was around or not.

"Sleep? What happened to you? ”

Lu Chen touched her arm, she was in a trance, her wallet fell to the ground, and a photo of Ji Lingchuan fell out along with her.

Gu Mian paused and looked at the photo in a daze.

Ji Lingchuan was wearing a white sweater, sitting on the sofa at home, tilting his head and smiling at the camera, looking lazy like an animal about to hibernate.

This was the time she went to his house and took a casual photo.

Later, she and Su Xiaomi went shopping and visited a drink shop, and there was a machine for printing photos for free at the door. Su Xiaomi pulled her to experience, she originally wanted to print a photo of her and Ji Lingchuan, there were a lot of people around, she was afraid of attracting attention, so she only printed a personal photo of Ji Lingchuan. Before her, there were also girls printing pictures of celebrities, so her behavior is not surprising.

Su Xiaomi, as an insider, said meaningfully while drinking milk tea: "If you didn't know your relationship with Ji Lingchuan, I suspect that you would be a fan of Ji Lingchuan like those girls." ”

Lu Chen also saw the photo.

He carefully identified it for a while, and remembered that the person above was a big star, who had come to the attached middle school to film, as if his name was Ji Lingchuan.

He had also seen him talking with Gu Mian, right in front of the bulletin board in the senior high school teaching building.

Sana craned her neck and said, "Sister, don't you like to eat mangoes?" ”

Gu Mian came back to his senses, hurriedly picked up the wallet and photos on the ground, turned his face away, and his voice was a little choked: "I'm a little uncomfortable, you can help me pay, I'll pay you back in a while." ”

She hurried out after saying that.

Lu Chen wanted to catch up, but was stared at by the clerk to pay a deposit, so he had to take out the card from his wallet and hand it over.

When he finished the account, he led Sana, who also looked confused, out, only to see Gu Mian standing beside Gu with his back to them, the wind blowing her long hair, and the whole person looked so sad.

Lu Chen let go of Sana's hand and walked over, Gu Mian noticed that someone was approaching, his lips were pursed, his eyes were closed, and he tried to adjust his emotions.

He whispered, "Are you alright?" ”

Gu Mian slowly calmed down, shook his head and said, "It's okay." She clenched her wallet tightly in her fingers and took a deep breath, "How much is the cake, I'll give it to you." ”

Lu Chen: "No need, it's a deposit, not much money, and I'll pay all the money when I come to pick it up in the afternoon." ”

Gu Mian insisted on returning it to him, but he couldn't resist her, so he said it honestly.

The three of them got in the car and set off for the playground.

Lu Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Mianmian, we have known each other for so many years, if you have anything to tell me, I will do my best to help you." Even if you can't help, you will feel a lot more comfortable when you say it, don't hold everything in your heart, then you will be very tired. ”

Gu Mian's eyes flickered, he could see it, right?

She tried so hard to cover it up, but it was still seen.

Although Sana is a little more mature than the average child, it doesn't mean that she can participate in their adult affairs. She looked at Lu Chen, who was driving in front of her, and then looked at Gu Mian beside her, she didn't understand what he was talking about, the only thing she could understand was that Gu Mian was in a bad mood now.

She thinks that her birthday is the happiest day of the year except for Christmas, why is she in a bad mood?

Could it be......

Gu Mian didn't know how to answer, her hand was grabbed by a soft little hand, she lowered her eyes to Sana's beautiful eyes, and heard her comfort: "Are you still sad for your aunt's leg?" Dad said she's going to get better, don't worry, my dad is the best doctor in the world, he can cure everything. ”

Her words were full of childishness, because she didn't know enough about the world, and thought that what she saw was the most powerful thing in the world.

Gu Mian didn't want his emotions to affect others, so he showed a light smile: "I'm not sad, I am very happy that you can come out with me to play." ”

Sana sat on the chair and shook her head: "It's not that I accompany you, but you accompany me, I have the opportunity to run out to play because of your birthday, and I don't have to be urged by my mother to practice the piano." ”

Gu Mian was healed by this pistachio: "You have to have fun for a while." ”
