Chapter 7: Jin Xiao's Birthday (2)
Zhou Wanqing originally thought that Zheng Beili was a person who suffered from a muffled voice, but when she heard her refute herself, she still didn't want to admit that she was lying after being embarrassed for a moment, and it happened that everyone was here, so she took the opportunity to fool this matter: "Stop talking, everyone is here, let's order candles." ”
Zheng Beili had something hidden in his heart, and now he only had Lin Hanmiao in his mind, and because this was Jin Xiao's birthday, he didn't bother to bother with her, and fiddled with his mobile phone without saying a word, without looking at her again.
Zhou Wanqing glanced at her quietly a few times, seeing that she seemed to be really angry, and she didn't speak again.
Eighteen candles had been lit, Zheng Beili got up and turned off the light in the private room, and in the dark room, only the flickering flames of the candles emitted a faint light.
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."
The warm birthday song sounded, Jin Xiao's smiling face looked so sunny, Zheng Beili looked at the strange and familiar faces sitting around the table, and did not feel a trace of warmth.
How many people are here to really wish her a happy birthday?
Just this afternoon, a few of the people sitting here were still clamoring about how boring this formalism was, but now they were still laughing, sitting here and singing the song of blessing loudly, as if all the previous grievances and complaints had never been there.
The singing stopped, Jin Xiao folded his hands, and his face with closed eyes was also smiling, which was incomparably sweet by the candlelight.
The candles were all blown out, and the applause and cheers rang out at that moment, Zheng Beili did not join, got up and turned on the light.
Jin Xiao held a cup full of drinks and said something, Zheng Beili didn't want to hear a word, just mechanically held the cup, applauded mechanically, and ate a few bites of cake mechanically.
With a hypocritical smile tugging at the corner of her mouth, Zheng Beili felt that if there was a mirror in front of her, she would be ugly in the mirror.
Time flies, as if this celebration has just begun, and it is already past ten o'clock. The dormitory closed at half past ten, everyone packed a few dishes, said goodbye at the door of the small cafeteria, and went back to the dormitory.
Although everyone looked happy when they got together, when they returned to the dormitory, all the dissatisfaction just burst out.
"That Lin Hanmiao, didn't he say he wouldn't go, why did he go again?"
Zheng Beili, who had just finished washing, collapsed on the bed, listless as if she was about to fall asleep in the next second, and when she heard Jin Xiao's words, she suddenly came to her senses again.
"Didn't he go to apologize to you?"
Jin Xiao looked up at Zheng Beili on the bed, and said as a matter of course: "Then I'm done apologizing, he is leaving, why do you stay for dinner?" ”
"That's right, it's because of him for such a long delay." Zhou Wanqing sat on the bed and echoed Jin Xiao.
Chang Shuning played with his mobile phone and said without raising his head: "Didn't he get beaten when he went back to the dormitory?" ”
The dormitory suddenly fell into the action of crusading against Lin Hanmao, and they said one sentence to another, as if they were criticizing a person who had done a great wrong thing from the perspective and position of God.
Zheng Beili turned around, rolled his eyes speechlessly, and then turned on his phone to check the friend verification message.
"Okay, don't talk about it, Wu Xuyang paid for today's meal, and the boys who went there shared it evenly." Bai Xue was about to make a video call to Fang Yu, perhaps because she felt that the dormitory was too noisy, and said impatiently.
Chang Shuning's hand holding the mobile phone shook slightly, and he remembered the embarrassment when he stood there when he should have paid, and he didn't say anything for a while.
The dormitory finally quieted down, and the hustle and bustle of the night was finally going to disperse in the night.
The QQ message prompt sounded, Zheng Beili opened the chat dialog box, looked at Lin Hanmiao's three words, and didn't know what to say.
