Chapter 101: Hors d'oeuvres
Ji Lingbai finally arrived the day before Xi Zimo's birthday, but he didn't tell anyone the news that he was back.
Originally, he was going to buy a ticket for Xi Zimo's birthday, but Ji Lingbai was worried that something would happen, so he came back a day early to prepare.
When he stepped on the land under his feet, Ji Lingbai suddenly had an indescribable feeling: in the end, it was better to be in his hometown.
It's only been out for less than a month, and there is a feeling that I've been out for a long time. Ji Lingbai didn't know why he was so attached to his homeland in this life.
The first thing I did, of course, was to send a message to my friends at school that he had arrived home safely. Of course, Ji Lingbai didn't tell them that he didn't go home because he wanted to surprise Xi Zimo.
Dan Chengzhi and Ding Caixia's replies are quite normal, they are all to let themselves play with confidence, they will seriously carry out the tasks assigned by themselves, and they will not be lazy.
When he arrived at Xia Kai, the style of painting changed abruptly. "It's here, team leader, you have to rest well, and you have fun tomorrow~"
Obviously, it can be regarded as a normal word, but I don't know why I feel so strange when I say it from Xia Kai, Ji Lingbai has some goosebumps.
Ji Lingbai first found a place to stay and put his things away. When I went home, I naturally spoke my hometown, so no one did anything unpleasant because of the exclusion of outsiders.
After resting for a while, Ji Lingbai began to make plans for the next day. First of all, of course, it depends on when Xi Zimo will get out of school, this is not a big problem, I have Xi Zimo's class schedule.
Then it was what to do after seeing each other, and after thinking for a while, Ji Lingbai still felt that he should call home.
"Hey, Mom, it's me, Ling Bai. He Yanfang is now studying cooking with Ling Manlan, but she didn't expect her daughter to call at this time.
"What's the matter, baby girl. Since Ji Lingbai left home, Mama He's love for Ji Lingbai has become deeper and deeper.
Ji Lingbai helplessly held his forehead, "That, isn't tomorrow Zimo's birthday?"
"Why, you're back, why don't you call home when you come back!" He Yanfang has always been an anxious child.
Although Ji Lingbai knew that her mother was like this, she didn't expect her to be so anxious.
In order not to let his mother find out his intentions, Ji Lingbai thought for a while before saying, "I bought a ticket for tomorrow, so I'll pick him up after school tomorrow afternoon, and let's go out to eat together." ”
In fact, Ji Lingbai meant to give Xi Zimo to the elders in the family at noon, and at night, it was time for himself and Xi Zimo to be alone.
He Yanfang is a person who has come over, how could she not understand what Ji Lingbai meant. "Okay, just do as you say. It just so happens that your Aunt Ling is next to you, and I will talk to her. ”
"Okay, Mom, say hello to Mother Ling for me. Ji Lingbai hung up the phone after speaking.
Ling Manlan on the side actually only heard a rough idea, "Is Ling Bai coming back to attend Zimo's birthday?"
He Yanfang nodded, "She said that she bought tomorrow's ticket and took Zimo out to eat in the afternoon." I think it's just two little ones who want to leave us old guys behind. ”
Ling Manlan only smiled, "Ling Bai also has a heart. ”
The two said a few more thoughtful words before they each went back to their homes.
Because of his understanding of Ji Lingbai's feelings, even after Xi Zimo went home, Ling Manlan did not tell him the news that Ji Lingbai would come back the next day.
Xi Zimo, who already knew that Ji Lingbai had no way to come back on his birthday, didn't expect that he would still be very sad.
So much so that before I knew it, I dialed a phone call, and I didn't react until the voice rang over there.
"Zimo, what's wrong?"
Xi Zimo didn't know what he should say, as if he had a lot of words on his lips, but he just couldn't say it.
"Nothing, I pressed the wrong button. ”
"Is that so? Then I'm quite busy here, so I'll hang up first. In fact, I can already roughly guess Xi Zimo's thoughts, but Ji Lingbai still said so.
Xi Zimo was really unhappy in an instant, "Okay then." After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Because he wanted to make a contrast, Ji Lingbai resisted the urge to comfort Xi Zimo. Just looking at the black screen on the phone, I still feel that this is too uncomfortable.
"Zimo, I'll get back to you when I'm done. I really didn't like this feeling, Ji Lingbai still sent a message to Xi Zimo.
But it was obvious that Xi Zimo had no intention of forgiving her, and did not reply to her at all.
At this moment, Xi Zimo felt very uncomfortable, although he understood that Ji Lingbai could not accompany him on his birthday, but he didn't even have a phone call on the eve of his birthday, and Xi Zimo was very sad.
Xi Zimo, who curled himself up in the quilt and rarely slept in this position, fell asleep unconsciously.
In a hotel not far away, Ji Lingbai couldn't sleep for a long time. is full of the situation of seeing Xi Zimo tomorrow, what should I say first?
Ji Lingbai, who had been thinking all night, didn't know when he fell asleep. It's just that when I got up the next morning, I saw my two big eye bags, and I was very glad that I went to find Xi Zimo in the afternoon, not in the morning.
On the other side, when Xi Zimo got up in the morning, he saw the text message Ji Lingbai sent to him, and his mood was a little better. But then he noticed that Ji Lingbai said that he would call him back, but he didn't do it, and he was unhappy again.
At this time, Ling Manlan called him, "Zimo, come out for dinner, you're about to be late." ”
Because Xi Zimo is on his birthday today, and Ji Lingbai called yesterday to specifically ask him to take Xi Zimo out this afternoon, so Ling Manlan specially called Xi Zimo's head teacher yesterday so that he could go home and live.
"Mom, I said I didn't have to come back, and you even called our teacher to say. Now all the students in our class know. ”
How could Ling Manlan not know her son's character, "It doesn't matter if you know, and you can't celebrate your birthday at home because your Sister Ling Bai is not there." ”
When Ji Lingbai was mentioned, Xi Zimo remembered what Ji Lingbai had done, and he had no desire to speak, just quietly eating his evening meal.
Although Ling Manlan didn't know what was going on, she didn't answer. It's just that when Xi Zimo left home, he instructed, "Remember to go home for dinner at noon today, your Aunt He and Uncle Ji will come over." ”
"Got it. Xi Zimo agreed and left.
Ling Manlan looked at Xi Zimo's taller and taller figure, "The child has grown up after all!"
Because of the events in the morning, Xi Zimo was not in a very good mood until class. However, he is still a good student after all, and once he is in class, he is still more focused.
It's just that he's focused, but it doesn't mean everyone is focused.
was poked a few times by the same table first, and Xi Zimo didn't feel it so much that he couldn't feel it. Gesture with your eyes that the other person is in class.
Unexpectedly, the other party stopped for a while and started again, Xi Zimo couldn't help but want to glare at the other party, but he didn't expect that as soon as he turned around, the person handed over a small note, and he frowned at himself.
In fact, this is not the first time that this kind of thing has happened, but after Xi Zimo made it clear that he didn't like others to disturb his class, there were many fewer such cases. I don't know who it is this time.
Of course, because he didn't care about this kind of thing, although he took the note handed to him at the same table, Xi Zimo didn't mean to open it. He just didn't want to keep bothering himself with this note.
The same table was a little anxious when he observed that Xi Zimo didn't open the note, this is a task given to him by the class flower in his class, so he can't mess it up.
So, at the risk of being stared at, he continued to poke at the mat. Xi Zimo glanced at him and shifted his position.
Unexpectedly, he also moved the stool. It wasn't until most of Xi Zimo's body was exposed outside the table that he stopped. And the reason, of course, is not the discovery of conscience, but the sudden ringing of the bell for the end of class.
When the teacher walked out of the classroom, Xi Zimo looked at his table and moved back to his own stool. "What the hell do you want to do?"
The table mate laughed twice, "I just want you to see that little note." ”
"You forget, I said, I don't accept anything that is handed to me during class. Especially since you are also interrupting my studies. Xi Zimo's tone was obviously not so good.
Although today is his birthday, the most important person is not around, and even the birthday is meaningless.
The same table obviously remembered that Xi Zimo did seem to have said such a thing at this time, but this is obviously only remembered by those who want to send things to Xi Zimo, why do you remember this.
What's more, Cai Jun, who was at the same table, would never admit that as soon as he heard Banhua and himself begging him to pass this note to Xi Zimo, he forgot nothing.
Xi Zimo still didn't speak, just looked at him lightly, and had no intention of speaking, but he didn't intend to read the note.
Cai Jun couldn't stand it anymore by Xi Zimo, and finally gave up, "Forget it, it's up to you." You can do whatever you want. ”
In fact, it is indeed Xi Zimo who can do whatever he wants, so even if Cai Jun said this, Xi Zimo still didn't say anything, and still looked at Cai Jun in the previous posture.
Cai Jun realized at this time that Xi Zimo had never been so easy to fool, and raised his hands high, "Okay, I was wrong, I will never disturb your study in the future." ”
Xi Zimo only retracted his gaze at this time, "You have to remember what you said." ”
Cai Jun kept nodding like a woodpecker, he was really afraid of Xi Zimo. I didn't expect Xi Zimo to be like this.
Xi Zimo was still in a good mood when he solved one thing, but he didn't expect it. Now things are just an appetizer, because of Ling Manlan's message yesterday, many people now know that today is Xi Zimo's birthday, so there are many "surprises" waiting for him.
