Chapter 123: Surprise
This little episode flashed by, and the birthday celebration officially began, He Ning blew out the candle and made a wish, and began to accept everyone's blessings and gifts.
He Yuan gave He Ning a pair of sneakers, of course, these sneakers are not as expensive as Cheng Yi gave to He Yi He Chen, so He Yuan was a little embarrassed when he gave them away: "Let's wear them."
He Ning said expressionlessly, "Thank you, big brother."
He Zhou gave He Ning a pair of headphones, no name and no brand, at first glance, it was a stall, about twenty yuan, He Ning hung the headphones around his neck.
When it was He Sui's turn, He Sui rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "Mine and He Jing sent it together."
He Jing: "......"
This guy who loves to buy beef meatballs!
He Yi and He Chen respectively gave a pair of anti-seasonal clearance gloves and an English dictionary with a small flaw in printing.
Finally it was Cheng Yi's turn, Cheng Yi decided to deliberately sell it, saying, "Let Sister He Jing send it first, maybe the gift she gave is too satisfying to the second brother, and mine doesn't need to be sent."
He Jing glanced at Cheng Yi lightly.
How could she not know her thoughts, she wanted to save her gift for the end, so that it would seem weighty, after all, the most exciting shows are usually the finale.
But she didn't bother to care, after all, the main purpose of giving gifts was to celebrate He Ning's birthday, not to compare, so she directly handed over the ball box with Rocketman's signature and smiled, "Second brother, I wish you a happy birthday."
He Ning's pupils suddenly shrank, his breathing was slightly heavy, and his always cold expression was broken, and he said, "This is ......"
"Basketball."
Without waiting for He Ning to open it himself, He Sui couldn't control his broken mouth and said it.
He Ning looked at He Jing in shock, and opened the lid of the box in disbelief, and there was indeed a basketball inside.
He could barely control his expression, and immediately laughed, his eyebrows and eyes were full of excitement that could not be concealed, he put the basketball on the ground and patted it, tried the elasticity, and then rubbed the ball with love, and said from the bottom of his heart, "Thank you, I like it very much."
Cheng Yi's beautiful eyes widened in an instant, and she was stunned.
He Ning likes to play basketball??
When did this happen!?
As if reading her inner thoughts, He Sui proudly showed off: "You don't know, the second brother is very good at playing basketball in school, many girls are his fan sisters, the coach of the city basketball team also came to the second brother, hoping that the second brother can give up his studies and strive to become a national athlete, if the second brother didn't say that the risk is too great, he can't bring a better life to our old He family, and now he is a member of the city basketball team."
This......
The He family really didn't know.
It turned out that He Ning had already made such a big sacrifice for the He family.
So how did He Jing know?
Everyone couldn't help but stare at He Jing.
He Jing endured their gaze, still calm, she smiled, and said, "Every time I go home from school with my second brother, when the bus passes by the stadium in the city center, my second brother always looks twice, so I wonder if my second brother will like sports, so I bought a basketball that boys love, but I didn't expect my second brother to really like it."
"Oh—"
Everyone suddenly realized, and then they all felt guilty.
He Jing just got out of school with He Ning, and he could know that He Ning likes basketball, and they have lived under the same roof with He Ning for so long, but they don't know anything about it.
He Sui was a strange person, he was just sour: "He Jing, you really pay attention to the second brother, you are not so considerate to me."
