Chapter 350: Look, that's how the cake is used
B&B, suites.
The soundproofing here is really good, you can't hear everything outside and you can't hear inside.
In the end, it was Cheng Qi who went to the bathroom to take a shower first.
He called out to the counselor several times, but she didn't respond, just curled up under the covers, and blocked her flushed face.
Her most real reaction at the moment can inspire a man's endless sense of satisfaction and achievement.
After Cheng Zhu came out of the shower, he found that she had put on her bathrobe, and then didn't talk to him, and quickly slipped into the bathroom with her head down.
The hot water washed over the mud, and Chen Jieyu felt that she was really driven crazy by him again.
And the main thing is - the long night.
It was only the first half.
When she walked out in a bathrobe, she saw Cheng Chai standing at the table in the living room.
On the table, there is a small birthday cake.
The cake is very exquisite, and it is bought from a well-known dessert shop in Hangzhou, and the price is not cheap.
"Where's the cake?" Chen Jieyu was slightly stunned.
Cheng Chai glanced at her and saw that her cheeks were still slightly red, which was related to the fact that she had just taken a hot bath, but it was not all.
"I brought it here in the afternoon, and I have been asking the boss to help me with the ice, and I just called him to deliver it." He replied.
He pulled the ribbon from the box and said, "I definitely have to eat cake for my birthday." ”
The counselor looked at the beautiful cake on the table, which was in stark contrast to the decorated cake she bought.
It is so exquisite, its existence seems to be used to take pictures of girls and send them to Moments, even the packaging is extremely exquisite, and the paper tray of the cake is also dotted with pearl balls of different sizes.
And the decorated cake in her bag, the pink plastic packaging reveals a full sense of cheapness.
Chen Jieyu pulled out a chair next to her and sat down beside him.
Cheng Zhu looked at her and asked in surprise, "Don't you take out the cake in your bag?" ”
"Huh?"
"Don't pretend, I saw it when you just got something in your bag, no, you won't be reluctant to give it to me, right?" Cheng was shocked.
"That's not what I meant." Chen Jieyu had no choice but to take out the small ancient decorated cake from her bag.
It was put together with the cake that Cheng bought one by one, and the contrast was even stronger.
"It's pretty good, you can find this kind of retro model, where did you find it? I probably haven't eaten this thing in 10 years, and I don't know if it's still the taste of my childhood. Cheng Zhu smiled and lifted it up and looked at it.
His performance made Chen Jieyu breathe a sigh of relief.
"How did you come up with the idea of buying this cake just to remember your childhood?" Cheng asked.
As everyone knows, what he said was not right, he still underestimated Chen Jieyu's family situation.
She shook her head and whispered, "It's because I couldn't eat it when I was a child, so now that I see it, I think about buying one." ”
It made him fall silent.
He thought that it would be impossible for a patriarchal family like her to prepare a birthday gift for her, and to survive was to buy a cheap cake or a whole bowl of birthday noodles.
That's why he prepares 27 gift boxes.
But I didn't expect that, hey, people didn't celebrate their daughter's birthday at all, and directly ignored this day.
"I'm conservative!" Cheng Zhu couldn't help but say in his heart.
But if you think about it carefully, although the retro trend has always been there, with Chen Jieyu's character, if she didn't have a special reason, she shouldn't think this kind of ancient decorated cake was interesting, and then bought it.
Chen Jieyu looked at him and said, "Isn't it a bit hypocritical for me to do this?" ”
"There is no one in this world who is completely unpretentious." After Cheng Zhu replied, he immediately changed the topic and proposed: "Then let's eat you first, I really miss the taste of my childhood." ”
Chen Jieyu nodded and opened the transparent lid.
"Don't you light a candle and make a wish?" He asked.
Chen Jieyu shook her head.
She didn't have a birthday, which was originally bought for the little girl in the past. As for the wish, when I was a child, I had already closed my eyes and folded my hands, secretly made a promise in my heart, and blew a "candle" into the air.
The cake that Cheng bought belonged to 27-year-old Chen Jieyu.
Holding the fork, Cheng Zhu took a bite of the decorated cake and felt the difference in the taste of the cream.
"When I was a child, I thought it was delicious!" He said in his heart.
But people are like that, and the threshold will get higher and higher.
When I was a child, I felt very happy to drink a bottle of soda, and a small snack of five cents a pack at the school gate was a delicacy in the world.
But as you eat more and more things, have more and more experiences, and see more and more of the world, the threshold of happiness will become higher and higher.
The most hateful thing is that when many people were young, they were all "prophets".
When you were a child, you wanted to eat instant noodles every day, and now you have finally achieved it.
When you were a child, you thought the computer was the most fun and wanted to sit in front of the computer every day, but now you do it at work.
When you were a child, you wanted to have 100 yuan every day, but now you have a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan.
Damn, it's no wonder you have to be happy!
A small decorated cake was eaten by Cheng Zhu's big mouth in a few clicks, and Chen Jieyu only ate two bites.
But looking at his appearance of eating ginseng fruit, a shallow smile appeared on her face, which was a little less serious and more agile than she had in the past.
It seems that Xiao Chen Jieyu many years ago, who appeared in her life in an unreasonable way after many years of banqueting.
"Is it that delicious?" She was a little confused.
"Seriously, the cream tastes so-so, but it's just a little nostalgic." Cheng said.
In his memory, in a few years, Hollyland seems to have launched a similar retro model, but the materials used will definitely be different from more than ten years ago.
It doesn't taste that good, but it's also remembered for generations.
"So, now it's time to make a wish and blow out the candles." Cheng said.
After inserting candles in the cake he bought, he didn't rush to light it, but connected the Bluetooth speaker in the B&B room.
"Wait a minute, I'll play you a birthday song." While linking the stereo, he said, "I'm sure I'll sing you a few words too, but I'm here alone, I'm afraid you'll be embarrassed, haha!" ”
After the candle was lit, Cheng Zhu turned off the lights of the homestay, and the birthday song was still played in the Bluetooth speaker, which was the most ordinary version, not the Haidilao version.
Chen Jieyu thought that she would be very uncomfortable with this kind of link, or even rejected. But when the lights dimmed, there were only candles in the room, and the singing of Cheng Zhu mixed with the stereo, and the atmosphere suddenly came up.
For some reason, she had a sour nose again, so she closed her eyes decisively.
Chinese make wishes, always like to make big promises.
Things like getting rich are hard.
In fact, even the four words of good health are not so easy.
Chen Jieyu has understood a truth since she was a child, that is, the world will always backfire on you.
Therefore, she never made any big wishes, or rather, very broad wishes.
Rather than saying that she is making a wish now, she is making a promise of one thing:
"I hope I can celebrate my birthday with Cheng Zhu next year."
She didn't even promise it every year.
Only next year, that's all.
Because of this wish, I can make it again next year.
Once a year
In the living room of the B&B, Chen Jieyu blew out the candle flame burning on the cake.
Cheng Zhu, who was standing next to the switch, turned on the light with a snap.
He turned off the Bluetooth speaker on his mobile phone, and asked with a smile, "What wish did you make?" ”
"Don't you know that wishes can't be spoken?" Chen Jieyu asked rhetorically.
"I didn't expect you to be so superstitious as a college worker!" Cheng took out the tray and knife and fork from the bag and reached out to hand it to her.
The counselor took the knife and fork and looked at the cake a little confused.
"It's just the two of us, we can't finish eating." She said.
"Eat first, and then talk about the rest." Cheng replied: "I have bought the smallest one as much as possible, in fact, if this style is made a little bigger, it will look better." ”
In the end, Chen Jieyu cut a small piece for herself, and then cut a large piece for Cheng Zhu.
"No, that's too big!" Cheng was speechless.
Women are like this, they can't finish eating, and they don't know if they try to eat more, so they will give us men to eat!
But what's interesting is that Cheng Zhu, like most men, can really finish his efforts
And he eats faster than Chen Jieyu.
In the process of eating the cake, he also asked the counselor: "Dean Zhang, how are the people contacting?" ”
It's been a while since that.
Cheng Zhu was not in a hurry about this, he just wanted to understand the situation.
"I guess the dean has the best candidate in mind, and he will wait for this person's reply first." Chen Jieyu said.
"Who?"
"Probably his son who is traveling around the world." She guessed.
"Huh? Traveling around the world? Cheng was slightly stunned.
"Dean Zhang's son is a high-achieving computer student at Tsinghua University, with very strong technology and ability, very famous in the circle, a god-level figure, he used to work in a well-known company in Shencheng, but last year he encountered some special circumstances, so he resigned and began to travel around the world."
"What special circumstances?"
"He's divorced." Chen Jieyu replied.
"Is it so hurt to get divorced, I haven't been scattered enough after a year, and I love a good man?" He asked.
"That, his situation is a bit special," Chen Jieyu wanted to say and stopped.
"You're still keeping it a secret with me, aren't you?" Cheng Zhu pretended to be displeased: "I'm not a big mouth." ”
Chen Jieyu sighed and said, "The two children of him and his ex-wife are not his. ”
Cheng Zhu didn't expect this to be the case, and after a while, he asked in a ghostly way: "The two children are twins?" Or is it said that it was born at a different stage? ”
Chen Jieyu's answer was very exciting: "It's not twins, the older one is three years older than the younger one." ”
At this moment, Cheng Zhu's scalp was inexplicably numb.
Suddenly, I understand a little why this old brother has been traveling around the world for a year, and his heart still can't calm down.
He had heard a saying before, saying that if you are looking for a husband, you should find someone who studies computers, and you should find us Programming Ape.
After all, who doesn't like a husband who has more money and less talk and dies early?
And I can't work overtime all year round, and the air is free.
But the air in this old brother's house is a little too free!
After the two briefly chatted about this matter a few more times, Chen Jieyu, who had been eating cake in small bites, finally finished eating.
She looked at the rest of the birthday cake on the table, thinking that it was a bit of a waste, and was hesitating whether to ice it up and bring it back tomorrow.
Just as she was thinking, Cheng Zhu suddenly wiped his fingers on the cream, and then applied a little to her face.
Chen Jieyu looked indifferent, not frightened, and had no intention of fighting back.
"Huh? Why are you so boring? Cheng was speechless.
"I'm not a kid anymore, I'm twenty-seven years old." Chen Jieyu said.
"Got it, you like adult play, don't you?" Cheng Zhu smiled, slowly stretched out his fingers, and smeared a thick layer of cream on his hands.
Chen Jieyu glanced at him, and this time she inexplicably wanted to dodge.
I saw Cheng Zhu first wiped a little on her jawline, then her pink neck, then her collarbone, and then, all the way down.
See, that's how we adults use cakes.
Chen Jieyu got up and wanted to escape, but he held her down, then blocked her lips, and her right hand began to smear wantonly.
