Chapter Seventy-Two: Empathy
At noon on his birthday, Li Meng called a few mutual friends of the two to celebrate Hua Shize's birthday.
"Senior sister, where's my gift?" Hua Shize asked her like a child asking for a gift.
"It's been ready for a long time, give it to you, and see if it's what you want." Li Meng coaxed him and said.
Hua Shize opened the gift box and found that it was really the PSP he wanted, but he was only happy for a minute.
When he unpacked the original package in front of everyone and found that the game console inside was not the blue he liked, but a limited edition with a cartoon pattern, his face changed color in an instant.
Although Hua Shize didn't say anything, Li Meng saw his dissatisfaction by looking at his face.
She picked up her phone and secretly sent him a text message: Broad & Bright, what's wrong with you?
Hua Shize replied to her: This cartoon pattern is so stupid! I don't like it.
If you don't like it, change it to what you like! I'll go with you.
It's to blame that I have already unpacked it, and I didn't look carefully at the cover image, and I didn't notice that this is a limited edition.
So what to do?
I can only keep it, or go online to see if anyone can change it with me.
I'm sorry, dear, I thought you'd love the limited edition, it's rare to be expensive!
Ay! Sister! Next time you should ask my opinion before buying.
I didn't think much of it, I just wanted to give you a little surprise. Don't be unhappy, there are so many people here!
Hua Shize raised his eyes from the phone and glanced at her, and lowered his eyelids unhappily.
Li Meng fell into deep self-blame. Why can't I do even such a small thing? I'm obviously already very attentive. I try to make everyone around me happy, and I can be happy when I see them happy. But I did the wrong thing again this time, and people didn't appreciate it, and my mind was all in vain. I'm so hard!
Li Meng doesn't know that this is a people-pleasing personality, and her joys, sorrows, and sorrows are all controlled by others. This way of behaving in the world will not only not make others think that you are just being a "good gentleman", but will give people the impression that you are a bully and have no idea.
……
In the gym, Tang Jingting, who had just finished rinsing in the bathroom, walked towards Hua Broad and Bright with her half-dried hair, "Broad & Bright, they said you had a birthday today, happy birthday!" ”
"Thank you, Jingting."
"What's wrong? So serious! Looks like I didn't have a happy birthday! ”
Hua Shize squeezed out a wry smile.
"It's a birthday, it's only once a year, of course, how happy you are. Let's go, my sister will take you to celebrate your birthday, and I promise to let you lose those little troubles. ”
As soon as the big sister said this, Hua Shize was of course moved.
Facing Senior Sister Li Meng who lacks interest every day, after two or three months, Hua Shize also feels a little bored.
In addition to holding hands, he and Li Meng hugged and kissed, and then there was no follow-up progress, which made Hua Shize very crazy.
Li Meng likes to pounce on his thick chest and pat his hard abs.
Hua Shize naturally followed Tang Jingting, and the two of them were not conspicuous one after the other.
"Sister Jingting, where are you going to take someone?"
"Follow me, you'll find out later." Tang Jingting didn't even look back.
Walking to an intersection far away from the school, Tang Jingting stopped a taxi, and Hua Shize got into the car with her.
The car stopped at a small seaside restaurant, and the room was empty, and the lights were not even on, as if it was closed.
Tang Jingting took out the key and unlocked the door.
Turn on the light, and the room suddenly brightens, with a few rows of soda chilled in the refrigerator and a lot of frozen food in the freezer.
"Sister, how do you have the key here?"
"My friend is doing business here, and the two of them recently traveled to Tibet, so they asked me to help me come and take care of them occasionally, mainly because I have to help them feed the cats."
Hua Shize saw that there was really a two- or three-month-old kitten in the cat cage in the corner.
"Sister Jingting, I didn't expect you to be beautiful and kind!"
"Ha, I'm a big fan of critters." Tang Jingting said and leaned down to open the small cage, took out the kitten, and poured a handful of cat food into her hand.
Hua Shize looked at her graceful figure and was in a reverie.
After feeding the cat, Tang Jingting took out some meat skewers, quick-frozen dumplings, noodles and other foods from the freezer and began to prepare dinner for him.
"Broad & Bright, go to the refrigerator and get whatever drink you want to drink." Tang Jingting suddenly remembered something, turned her head sideways and said to him.
"Okay, Sister Jingting, I'll help you!"
"No, no, just sit honestly!" Tang Jingting walked over and turned on the CD player and speaker, and the sound of English rock songs came from inside.
Hua Shize sat at a dining table and drank Fanta soda, stared at her for a while, and then got up and walked around the room.
He found that there was also a small bedroom with a fabric sofa, where the sparrows were small and full of organs, and they could fit a home treadmill.
Hua Shize walked out of the wooden door again, and the sound of the sea could be heard clearly.
At this time, he was no longer worried, and for him, coming here was like winning the jackpot and winning a free vacation.
In fact, Hua Shize didn't know who he was angry with, he knew in his heart that Li Meng was not wrong at all, he should have thanked her for saving money to buy such a valuable gift to fulfill his wishes, but he was very angry and wanted to make a big fuss. It may be that young people are too hot, impulsive and irritable, and can't be suppressed; Maybe it's a psychological trick, unwilling to see that Li Meng is rich, and he has no money, and he still needs her help.
Back in the house, Tang Jingting just brought over a bowl of longevity noodles, "Broad & Bright, this noodle is exclusive to birthday stars, let's try my craftsmanship!" ”
"Thank you!" Hua Shize looked at the hot noodles, and a burst of heat bubbled up in his heart. "It's delicious!" , he took another chopstick and put it into his mouth.
Tang Jingting was eating a bowl of boiled dumplings, and she ate a few meat skewers with Hua Shize. The two of them ate and drank wine to cheer up, so happy.
It was late at night, Hua Shize helped Tang Jingting clean up the dining table briefly, brushed the cups, plates, dishes and chopsticks, and then the two of them moved to the small staircase outside the wooden door and drank the wine bottle.
"Cheers to this beautiful night!"
When the sea breeze blew, the two men were both awake and drowsy, and their hearts swayed like two small boats tethered to the shore, and the sparks that collided were enough to spontaneously combust. The crazy European and American rock music also made them full of vitality as if they were resurrected.
……
Hua Shize realized that what he liked was actually Tang Jingting.
In addition to having common hobbies, the two of them also have similar families, and the two of them look more compatible from the outside.
