Chapter 21: The Chocolate Cake That Has Lost Its Taste

Half of the car quickly drove away, and the rest were also driving away one after another, even Han Xiaoyan, who came out with Xu Ningxue to wait for the car, also got in the car and left, leaning on the window and waving to Xu Ningxue with a smile, saying, "See you tomorrow." ”

Xu Ningxue felt that knowing Han Xiaoyan was the luckiest thing she felt after coming here, she felt that everything here was too unfamiliar, and coupled with her identity that she needed to be careful all the time, her heart had been uneasy since she came to this city, and it was indeed her dream wish to meet a friend who had a good feeling.

However, she knows better than anyone that the other side of friendship is a sharp sword, a sharp sword that can hurt people invisibly. She had the luxury of having many friends, but she was afraid that those friends would leave one by one, and it didn't matter if they left, it was because they had better friends, as long as they didn't leave after they had hurt her the most, then it wasn't a big deal to leave.

On the road of life, it is a journey with an end, someone comes, someone will go, no one can accompany him, not even the closest people.

She understands the truth, she just needs time to let go.

But the pain was still unforgettable when she thought about it again, so she was scared.

There is another problem that worries her even more, it is her sister, she is worried that having too close friends will hurt her sister because of this, so she only maintains a classmate relationship that is not deep or shallow, which is better than anything else.

Cheng Mu's car whizzed past in front of Xu Ningxue, he glanced at Xu Ningxue lightly, and raised the corners of his mouth lightly, it was a good-looking arc, if it was a little warm, it would be more attractive.

Xu Ningxue took a few steps back, her hatred for Cheng Mu deepened a little, and she still threw him countless rolls of eyes when she was far away.

Uncle Chen's car came a little late, he saw Xu Ningxue, and explained apologetically: "Miss Ningshuang, I'm really sorry, the car had a problem on the road, and I went to repair it for a while, so you are in a hurry, right?" ”

Because last time he was too late to pick up Xu Ningshuang because the road was too congested, but she blamed her for a long time, she was good at everything, but she was spoiled too much by Du Qingyu, so the eldest lady had a very strong temper.

He believes that since Xu Ningxue is Xu Ningshuang's sister, her personality should be similar.

On the contrary, Xu Ningxue still felt flattered by Uncle Chen's respectful tone, smiled embarrassedly, waved her hand again and again, and said, "Uncle Chen, it's okay, you're not much late, I won't blame you, let's go back." ”

Uncle Chen squinted his eyes and smiled, "Okay, today is a special day, of course you need to go back early." ”

Xu Ningxue was not idle in the car, but opened a thick notebook and carefully wrote down every bit of what happened today, she felt that only in this way could she record everything that happened in school as a diary, which should help her sister in the future.

It's just that she has some doubts? Is today a special day? She stopped her pen, frowned and thought for a moment, then took out her phone and looked at the calendar carefully, and suddenly remembered what a special day it was.

Today is Du Qingyu, that is, her mother's birthday.

When she was a child, she and her sister liked to eat chocolate-flavored cakes the most, so every time their mother's birthday, there was always a chocolate-flavored cake, watching them eat with their mouths full of faces, and the smiles on their faces were happy and satisfied.

However, since Du Qingyu left with her sister, every time it was Du Qingyu's birthday, she would always save money to buy a chocolate cake back, but she couldn't eat the original taste.

Now, she finally got her wish and could be by her mother's side, but what she lost was still lost after all, and even if she came back, it was no longer the same as she was at the beginning, because even the original happiness and happiness had changed.

"Uncle Chen, don't go back yet, I want to buy a gift."

"Okay."

When Xu Ningxue came home, Aunt Huang was busy in and out of the kitchen, she looked, and did not see Du Qingyu's figure, said hello to Aunt Huang, went back to the room to change into a light blue dress, and tied the long hair of the shawl casually into a somewhat messy ball head, she looked left and right, and if she was not satisfied, she was about to leave it, holding a small box with beautiful packaging, and returned downstairs.

Xu Ningxue poked her head into the kitchen and asked, "Aunt Huang, where is my mother?" Hasn't she come back yet? ”

Aunt Huang was cooking, turned around with a spatula and said with a smile: "Not yet, Mrs. said that she and her friends went to celebrate first and then came back, by the way, Ningshuang, the cake was just delivered on the table, can you help put it in the refrigerator first?" I forgot about the dishes in the pot just now. ”

"Well, Aunt Huang, you're busy, I'll just put it away."

Xu Ningxue agreed, and then came to the table in the living room, there were two cakes, one large and one small, strange, why do you want to make such a small cake? Out of curiosity, she opened the box containing the cakes and looked at them, both of which were covered with rich chocolate sauce, and they were so beautifully made that people were reluctant to look away from them.

In this way, does Du Qingyu take her to heart, or is it just a habit that stems from her sister's liking?

Or, it's more likely to be the latter, if you don't hate her too much, you won't be away for so many years, and you won't come back to see her even once.

Thinking of this, Xu Ningxue lowered her eyes, sighed lowly, covered the box, carefully placed the cake in the refrigerator, and sat on the sofa waiting for Du Qingyu to come back.

It didn't take long for Du Qingyu to come back, wearing a dark purple dress that looked like a fairy, Xu Ningxue's eyes were full of amazement, if she could, she wanted to show off to others how beautiful her mother was.

She heard Aunt Huang say that Du Qingyu's recent comeback was not so smooth, because after all, she had been away for too long, and there were no good songs coming out, so it would take more time and effort to be active again in people's forgetfulness of her.

Xu Ningxue wanted to say something comforting to Du Qingyu, but she was worried that she would not accept it, and in the end, everything she wanted to say turned into silence and swallowed back into her stomach.

When Aunt Huang saw Du Qingyu coming back, she came out of the kitchen one by one with the dishes and set them up, and when Du Qingyu came out with her clothes, Aunt Huang had already prepared everything, even the big cake was placed on the table, and the candles had been inserted.

After seeing Du Qingyu sit down, Xu Ningxue sat down as well, and after hesitating for a moment, she looked up at Du Qingyu, who had no expression on her face, before she spoke: "Mom, happy birthday." ”

"Hmm." Du Qingyu just responded lightly, and then didn't say a word.
