Text Chapter 63: Birthday
"Ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong!"
Lying comfortably on the sofa, Su Wuxi looked intently at the video playing on the TV.
Suddenly the disturbing doorbell rang, breaking the peace of the room, Su Wuxi pouted slightly, and stepped into the slippers barefoot.
"Here we are."
Opening the black lacquered wooden door, the courier who was dressed plainly, holding a carefully packaged box in his hand, saw the owner of the house appear, he sent the box forward, showing a professional smile.
"Hello ma'am, this is your package, please sign for it."
As he spoke, he handed over a pen, and Su Wuxi's willow eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he hesitated for a moment.
Express delivery? She hadn't bought anything recently, but the shipping slip clearly said that this was her courier, her name, phone number, and address, which was exactly the same.
After signing the courier and sending the courier brother away, Su Wuxi nestled on the sofa and opened the box.
Inside is a small pink/white gown, with a unique and novel style, and the fabric is soft and silky, which is worth a lot of money at first glance, and it is likely to be custom-made.
Who will give her a dress? Or anonymity, is it to surprise her?
After thinking about it, Su Wuxi folded the dress neatly and put it back, and when she was about to close the lid, she found a note in the corner.
Unfolded, it is an extremely powerful and energetic font, this kind of font she has only seen in one person, Yuan Heting.
Looking at the contents of the note, she hooked the corners of her lips.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the Joy City Hotel was gone.
Yuan Heting, what are you going to do? Thinking back to Yuan Heting's behavior for a while, Su Wuxi was not interested, she casually threw the box aside, and let the dress be exposed in the air, delicate and beautiful.
Returning to the film, Su Wuxi turned around and left this matter behind, but she wanted to forget, but someone asked her to remember.
But ten minutes, the doorbell rang again, and he reluctantly got up to open the door, this time it was the property who knocked on the door, and he had a polite smile on his face.
"Hello Miss Su, it's five :30 p.m., someone is waiting for you at the Joy City Hotel at seven o'clock, please don't be late."
After speaking, he bowed slightly, and then turned around and left in Su Wuxi's surprised gaze, his movements neat and crisp.
Blinking slightly, Su Wuxi closed the door.
Ten minutes later, Su Wuxi stood at the door again, listening to something similar in his ears.
It's just that this time he changed people and became an intermediary, and she remembered that she had met him before renting this apartment.
With an expressionless face, Su Wuxi didn't wait for the intermediary to finish speaking, and slammed the door shut.
However, it didn't end there, and every ten minutes after that, there was a knock on the door.
If she didn't open it, the doorbell would ring persistently again and again, and when she opened the door, she was faced with the same prompts, Su Wuxi was annoyed, and her original good mood was exhausted.
After closing the door again, she changed into a small dress in the box, and then put on makeup and tidied up, all in one go.
She wanted to see what Yuan Heting had in mind.
Joy City Hotel is a five-star hotel, but it is not far from Su Wuxi's house, and it is only ten minutes away by taxi.
At 6:40, Su Wuxi arrived at the Yuecheng Hotel.
Looking at the magnificent building and the lights in the hotel lobby, Su Wuxi took a small breath.
She straightened her makeup and stepped into the hotel, and before she could speak, a waiter around the corner came running quickly.
"Is it Miss Sue? Mr. Yuan asked me to wait for you, please here. ”
With a gesture of please, the waiter took the lead in leading the way, and she was led to a slightly remote place.
Xu saw Su Wuxi's hesitation, and the waiter explained: "Mr. Yuan doesn't want to be disturbed, so he chose here, and Miss Su doesn't have to worry." ”
After saying that, he inserted the key card into the card slot on the side.
"Ding!"
The door opened in response, and the warm yellow light slanted out, adding a bit of ambiguity, and the private room looked a little dark, but it did not affect the eyesight.
Su Wuxi paused in place for a moment, and then walked in.
As soon as she entered the private room, she smelled a faint fragrance, which was very good, and it was the type she had always liked.
The inside of the private room is also very different from the usual, and there is a cave.
It looked like it had been repainted, with pink tulle and many small items that girls loved.
The table is placed extremely exquisitely, if she didn't know that this was a private room, Su Wuxi would have thought that she had entered the princess's residence.
In particular, there is soft music playing in the private room, which makes it even more romantic.
After being stunned for a few seconds, Su Wuxi subconsciously looked at the man in the middle now, his sharp facial features softened a lot under the light, and his temperament around him was also very peaceful.
But...
This was not enough for her to calm her anger, she was very unhappy now, the corners of her lips pursed slightly, and Su Wuxi heard the man's deep voice just as she wanted to get angry.
"Happy birthday, Xiaoxi!"
He took out a small and delicate gift box from behind him like a trick, and with a long step, Yuan Heting walked towards this side, his eyes dark and deep, precipitating inexplicable emotions.
She really looks beautiful in this outfit.
Looking at the woman who was standing quietly and fair-skinned, Yuan Heting's Adam's apple rolled unconsciously.
The door, I don't know when it has been closed, the entire private room is now only her and him, especially as the distance approaches, Su Wuxi suddenly feels that the spacious place is inexplicably cramped.
She clenched her fists nervously, her palms overflowing with fine sweat.
"Happy birthday, Xiaoxi."
Handed the gift box to Su Wuxi with both hands, Yuan Heting repeated again, his dark eyes seemed to make people fall into it unconsciously.
Blinking, Su Wuxi looked away a little and reacted.
It seems like it's really her birthday.
But because of the series of things that happened recently, she didn't think about it at all, and her birthday was forgotten in the corner, and since her parents died, she didn't care about it, I didn't expect...
Her first decent birthday was actually spent under such circumstances, but Yuan Heting's strange behavior can also be explained.
The heart is warm, the anger seems to have died down in an instant, and there is not a trace of ripples, the mood at this moment is very wonderful, but it is not hateful.
Su Wuxi's incredible appearance made Yuan Heting laugh dumbly, and he directly stuffed the gift box into Su Wuxi's hand, and his laughing voice overflowed.
"Open it and see if you like it?"
The feeling of a foreign object in her hand brought back Su Wuxi's distant thoughts, and she subconsciously opened the gift box according to Yuan Heting's words.
What catches the eye is a diamond-encrusted necklace, with fine workmanship, like a collection of stars in the sky, extremely bright and beautiful, and the pendant in the center is a small plum blossom, with buds to be released.
Almost at a glance, Su Wuxi liked it from the bottom of her heart, and the corners of her lips unconsciously raised a very small, joyful arc.
Gifts, I chose the right one.
With a sigh of relief in his heart, Yuan Heting could clearly see Su Wuxi's transformation, and he pinched the bridge of his nose and said.
"Let's go there first, I've prepared your favorite food."
Without objecting, Su Wuxi closed the gift box and sat on the soft sofa.
The table covered with a tablecloth is not Western food, but some home-cooked food, which is coincidentally what Su Wuxi likes.
Smelling the familiar fragrance, Su Wuxi was in a trance for a moment, as if she had returned to her previous birthday, and every time Su Mu would prepare a large table of dishes to celebrate her birthday in the churning heat.
Lowering her eyelids, Su Wuxi silently covered her loneliness, and when she raised her eyes again, she had returned to normal.
"Yuan Heting, how did you know my birthday? And these dishes. ”
Speak softly, still detached, but what's different.
Hearing this, Yuan Heting's thin lips were slightly raised, revealing a shallow smile, he smiled very beautifully, as if he could make spring blossom in an instant, especially his eyes.
Therefore, Su Wuxi can rarely resist this temptation, but she sees him smile very little, especially to herself, and he always gives Zhong Linlan without hesitation, and just treats her coldly.
Now is this laugh a benefit? In the gradually increasing heartbeat, Su Wuxi heard his answer.
"I've observed, I've noticed."
I don't know when he began to observe everything about this little woman, what she likes, what she cares about, all of which will be inadvertently engraved in his heart, becoming clearer and clearer.
The specious ambiguous words made the atmosphere more romantic, and Su Wuxi was reluctant to continue.
She really couldn't turn her brain, why would she ask such a question, she opened the casserole in disguise, Su Wuxi filled a bowl of white rice, and after serving, she asked with a mouthful, do you want it.
In Yuan Heting's playful gaze, she couldn't wait to bite her tongue, and in the end, she still served him dinner.
Then there was silence, only the sound of music and the clashing of dishes and chopsticks could be heard, Yuan Heting had always had a keen insight, and now his insight was manifested on the dining table.
Every time Su Wuxi wanted to pick up vegetables, someone would take a step ahead of her, send the dishes into her bowl, and eat quietly, Su Wuxi lowered her head, not daring to look at Yuan Heting.
"Xiaoxi, I hope you can have me by your side every birthday in the future."
Time passed, Su Wuxi suddenly heard Yuan Heting's voice, and looked up, Yuan Heting was peeling crayfish, the contrast between red and white was stark, and his knuckles were slender.
Yuan Heting seemed to be casually talking, but his face was serious, and Su Wuxi couldn't tell for a while whether it was true or false.
But it is undeniable that his words made her have fantasies, glancing at Yuan Heting's eyebrows and looking at it, Su Wuxi's heart swept through a thousand words, but after all, she still didn't answer, but Yuan Heting had already acquiesced to her.
Putting the crayfish into the saucer in front of Su Wuxi, Yuan Heting slowly wiped his hands with a tissue, and the atmosphere returned to normal, as if the conversation just now had not appeared, but it left traces in their hearts.
buried her head in eating, Su Wuxi didn't notice how gentle and greedy Yuan Heting looked at her in the dark.
