The first mock exam ended for a while, but not long after, the results of the second mock exam were ushered in.

This afternoon's self-study class was much more lively than before, and the students all got the transcripts of the second mock exam in their hands, and they were chatting happily and discussing their results.

As the top students of the key class, everyone played well in the two mock exams, and almost all of them were maintained at the same level, without much gap.

Qin Jixue's total score twice has already exceeded the admission line of the target university, Zurich School of Business Administration and Skohley, and now she is short of IELTS, and the express mail that she just received a text message is IELTS has also arrived, waiting for her in the guard room!

At this time, Qin Jixue was very excited, because it was almost there, and the day of her dream was very soon, and she knew that she could definitely get rid of her current life......

After school, Qin Jixue saw Xia Zhen'er waiting for her as soon as she walked out of the door of the classroom.

Xia Zhen'er pulled her aside, whispered in her ear: "Bingxue, can you go home later after the self-study class tonight?" ”

Qin Jixue looked at Xia Zhen'er suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”

"Tomorrow is my birthday, I want to spend it with you tonight, is it okay?" Xia Zhener told her very bluntly.

"It's your birthday?!" Qin Jixue confirmed in surprise.

"Well, is that okay?" Xia Zhen'er nodded and asked.

Since I was a child, I have never had a birthday, let alone participated in someone else's birthday;

This is the first time, the first time that someone has invited her to celebrate her birthday together.

Qin Jixue looked at Xia Zhen'er's eager eyes, and couldn't bear to refuse, so she agreed: "Okay!" ”

"Really? Great, I'll go to you after the evening self-study. ”

"Hmm!" Qin Jixue's definite response.

"Okay, that's not going to be gone, I still have some things to do, so go back!" Xia Zhener said happily.

"Good!"

Qin Jixue got the express from the guard's room, but stuffed it into the backpack without dismantling it, because there was something more important than this at the moment.

Walking on the street outside the school, thinking about what kind of birthday gift to prepare for Xia Zhen'er, I was a little overwhelmed to celebrate someone's birthday for the first time.

Suddenly, her footsteps stopped in front of a cake shop, and after thinking for a long time, she finally decided, let's give the cake.

As soon as she walked into the cake shop, she was attracted by the photos on the wall at first sight, so she leaned closer and looked at the photo wall carefully.

The protagonist in the photo is holding a cake and surrounded by friends, and the moment of happiness is fixed on the smiling face reflected by the candlelight on the cake.

It seems that Qin Jixue is also infected by this kind of happiness, and at the same time, she is envious.

"Hello, do you need anything?" As soon as the boss came out of the back kitchen, he saw Qin Jixue standing in front of the photo wall.

Qin Jixue turned her head and looked at the boss;

The owner is a very young lady, no wonder she is so delicate and runs such a warm cake shop, and the cake should taste good.

Qin Jixue politely asked the boss: "Boss, I want to make a cake, today is my good friend's birthday." "Okay, this way, please." The boss took Qin Jixue into the back kitchen.

Qin Jixue asked the boss a little nervously: "Boss, it's my first time making cakes, can you teach me?" ”

"Of course, you know what? The best cake is not about the good ingredients used or the precise recipe, but here. ”

The boss stopped and turned around, looking at Qin Jixue with a smile, and at the same time pointed to the place of his heart; "Only cakes made with heart are the most delicious cakes in the world, and they are also the most special meanings on special days."

Heart, heart, heart......

Qin Jixue followed the boss to do the same...... Suddenly an inspiration struck......

"Boss, I seem to know what to do, thank you boss!"

"You're welcome! Go ahead, the tools, materials, and steps are all on the table, and if you don't understand anything in the process, feel free to ask me. ”

Qin Jixue looked at the tools on the table, then looked at the boss, and nodded in response: "Hmm." ”

Then, Qin Jixue put the backpack on the chair next to her, and when she turned around, a letter fell from the mezzanine of the backpack, and she didn't notice it, so that it kept lying quietly on the ground.

After more than three hours, the finished cake has been made, the boss looked at the cake and nodded with satisfaction, "It seems that you are very talented in this regard." ”

Being praised by the boss, Qin Bingxue smiled a little embarrassedly, and then carefully put the cake into the box, at this time the boss handed her a small card and colored pencils, Qin Qixue thought for a while, and wrote a few words on the paper: Eighteen-year-old you, may it be as you wish.

Qin Jixue looked at her watch, it was almost nine o'clock, it was almost too late, after hurriedly thanking the boss, she put on her bag, picked up the cake box and walked to the door of the store, the boss's voice sounded behind her: "Wait, you dropped something." ”

Qin Jixue looked back, and the boss chased after him with the letter, "Your thing." ”

"Thank you boss!"

Qin Jixue looked at the letter in a daze, "What's wrong?" Still stunned, isn't it almost too late? The boss saw that Qin Jixue was stunned, so he reminded.

"Goodbye, boss!" Qin Jixue came back to her senses, stuffed the envelope into her backpack, and hurried back to school.

Sprinting towards the classroom at a speed of 100 meters, Qin Jixue didn't have time to catch her breath when she saw Xia Zhen'er looking at the door of her classroom,

"Zhen'er ......" Qin Jixue beckoned to Xia Zhen'er;

Hearing the sound, Xia Zhen'er ran to Qin Jixue's side in a hurry, put her hand on her back, and gently helped her to calm down;

"Why are you rushing, where have you been? I thought you forgot. ”

Qin Jixue brought the cake box to Xia Zhen'er, "Happy birthday!" ”

Xia Zhen'er looked at the cake box in front of her with surprise on her face, and took it happily, "Wow, I really didn't expect you to help me prepare the cake, I was so moved, or did you help me make it yourself......" "How do you know?" Qin Jixue interrupted Xia Zhen'er suspiciously.

Xia Zhen'er looked at her, quickly wiped her face with her left hand, and replied proudly: "Na, the flour on your face betrayed you." ”

Qin Jixue hurriedly wiped her face, and an embarrassed smile appeared on her face, "It's good if you like it." ”

Xia Zhen'er took Qin Jixue's arm and said as she walked to the rooftop: "Of course I like it, this is the best birthday gift I have ever received, thank you, Jixue." ”

"You're welcome!"

On the rooftop, the breeze still carries a bit of summer heat, and there are a lot of fireflies flying around.

Xia Zhen'er put the cake on the stone table, took out the cake by dividing it by two, and at the same time a card also slipped down, Qin Jixue had caught it before Xia Zhen'er reacted, and she tried to reach out and grab it, but Qin Jixue stood on the stone bench, raised it very high, shook it, and said, "Blow out the candle first, and I'll show it to you after making a wish." ”

Xia Zhen'er pretended to be reluctant and agreed: "Okay." ”

When Qin Jixue relaxed her vigilance, she tried to grab the card again, but she was still discovered by Qin Jixue, one turned around and skillfully avoided her outstretched hand, and then looked at Xia Zhen'er with one look, Xia Zhen'er shrugged her shoulders and made a compromising look, "Forget it, you can see it later, wait, wait." ”

Qin Jixue smiled helplessly and put the card next to the cake;

A small candle was lit, and the little flame swayed in the breeze.

"Make a wish!"

Xia Zhen'er closed her eyes and folded her hands to make her eighteen-year-old wish. During this period, Qin Jixue secretly recorded this moment with her mobile phone.

"Let's blow out the candles together."

"Hmm"

Call......

"What did you wish?" , for the first time, Qin Jixue also gossiped.

"Hmm......" Xia Zhen'er hesitated, "Do you really want to know?" Qin Jixue nodded, Xia Zhen'er tasted the cake and said, "We can be admitted to the same university." ”

She looked at Qin Jixue, and Qin Jixue also kept looking at Xia Zhen'er, the eyes of the two met at this moment, and time seemed to stand still.

Qin Jixue could actually guess that Xia Zhen'er would make a similar wish.

She didn't say anything, lowered her head and tasted the cake, "You look at the card first, there will be the answer you want to know." Xia Zhener immediately opened the card and looked at the text on it:

Eighteen years old, may it be as you wish!

Eighteen years old, may it be as you wish!

Eighteen years old, may it be as you wish!

……

"Zhen'er, may it be as you wish, happy birthday!"

"Bingxue, we can go to the same school together, right?"

"Let's go to the same school."

Xia Zhen'er stood on the stone bench excitedly and shouted loudly: "Qin Jixue, let's take the same school together, long live friendship!" ”

Qin Jixue also followed her to stand on the stone bench, "Long live friendship!" ”

At this time, a beam of light shone from behind, and a thick male voice sounded at the same time, "Why are you still here, it's almost ten o'clock, go back quickly!" ”

Recognizing that it was the doorman's uncle, the two turned around together and quickly got down from the stone bench, picked up their respective backpacks, and flashed from the other side first, avoiding the doorman's uncle who was walking;

"Uncle Janitor, let's go back." After speaking, when the two trotted to the staircase, Xia Zhen'er suddenly stopped and said, "Uncle Doorman, the cake is left for you to eat, no need to thank you!" ”

Then, the two of them ran away!

The doorman shook his head and sighed, "Old, old...... I can't understand these routines of today's children! ”

That night, Qin Jixue kept looking at the group photo on her phone, and the never-before-before-felt and beautiful mood made her forget something that she once thought was very important!

The letter......

She ignored her......

Tucked into the pile of books on the desk......
