Chapter 30
Chapter 30
Logically speaking, it should be celebrated in He's family, but her house is too far away, and it is not convenient for Chen Yunkai's house to be close to the city center, so the final destination is Jiang Chen's house.
Jiang Chen didn't think there was anything wrong, anyway, there were few people, and his parents were not at home at work.We are almost adults again, so we won't be so naughty as children and make a mess of the house.
"Who are there?" Jiang Chen asked.
He Chuan said, "It's just you, me, and Chen Yunkai."
Jiang Chen didn't expect that there were so few people, "What about the others?"
"He Yi's classmate is making up lessons, and my mother has to take care of the store. They can only celebrate her birthday at night, and we will catch the noon one." He Chuan explained.
"Oh." Jiang Chen nodded.
In fact, four people are also very good. When there are too many people, it is a bit awkward not to know each other.
"What gift should I buy her?"
"Just buy a cake." He Chuan gave him an idea.
The day before He's birthday, the two went to a nearby cake shop to order a cake.
"What kind of cake does she like? Chocolate? Or fruit?" Jiang Chen leaned over to look at the neatly arranged cake samples, and had difficulty choosing, "How about this one?"
He pointed to a pink round cake.
There are two cream-mounted roses on it, the larger one is darker and has opened all its petals, while the other, which is more pink and will not open, is close to the dark rose.
The two roses have no branches and leaves, they just cuddle together, but the surrounding vines are intertwined, and the roses are surrounded by green circles, like shackles and guardrails.
"He Yi doesn't like roses." He Chuan said.
Jiang Chen didn't like roses either, before he met He Chuan.It would be awkward to send roses or something, so he continued to look for them without saying anything.
"What about this?" He pointed to the strawberry cake in front of him again.
A bunch of strawberries are piled on the snow-white cream, and there are even slices of strawberries on the wall of the cake, and small golden beads are sandwiched between the gaps as decorations.
"He Yi doesn't like strawberries." He Chuan couldn't help laughing.
"..." Jiang Chen asked again: "Does she like chocolate?"
He Chuan said, "General."
It was just the two of them in the shop.
Seeing the two wandering around for a long time, the shop owner walked over and asked politely, "Would you like to order a cake?"
"Well, it's for my sister." Jiang Chen nodded.
"Have a look at this one?" She opened the album in her hand and pointed to the square mosaic cake on it. "There are two flavors in this cake, suitable for people with different preferences."
The two stared at the "Pomegranate and Mango" cake in the album, and then looked at each other again.
Jiang Chen was uncertain, "Does He Yi like it?"
"She really likes durians." He Chuan nodded.
"Then this one?"
He Chuan nodded again.
They followed the boss to the cashier to fill in the order. The shopkeeper smiled and praised: "It's great to have two brothers! My sister must be pampered like a little princess."
Jiang Chen stopped writing the phone number for a moment, and replied with a smile: "It should be."
"Sister also snatched it?" He Chuan didn't explain to the owner, leaning against the counter, looking at someone who was still writing with his head down.
Jiang Chen just smiled and didn't answer him.
When the two were about to leave the cake shop, Jiang Chen unconsciously glanced at the rose cake again.
"We ordered that for our birthday," He Chuan said.
Jiang Chen's mind was pierced by He Chuan's words, he smiled a little shyly, looked at the rose cake again, turned his face away and raised his arms to try to cover up his shyness, "Okay."
It was almost noon the next day, and Jiang Chen went to the store to pick up the cake.
The cake is housed in a transparent shell, and the appearance is fully displayed, almost exactly the same as the actual picture.The collision of different shades of yellow makes people feel comfortable.
Satisfied, he carried the cake and walked towards the community, but bumped into three people rushing at the door.
He Chuan dressed casually as usual, with a white T and black shorts, with one hand in his pocket and several plastic bags in the other.
How much does this person like this outfit?
He Yi next to him had two braids and white bows on the tips of his hair. He also wore a white dress that couldn't be more plain, and paired it with a pair of small brown leather shoes.
A life-like sister next door.
Look at Chen Yunkai again, wearing a white shirt and black trousers, he must have curled his hair before going out.He also had a cake in his hand.
The two looked at each other suspiciously.
Two birthday cakes?Didn't discuss it in advance?
Jiang Chen turned to look at He Chuan, "Didn't you tell them that I bought the cake?"
He Chuan - "Forgot."
He Yi waved his hands and smiled, "It's okay, let's eat together."
The little girl smiled happily. To outsiders, she looked like three older brothers doting on one younger sister.
"Chen Yunkai, aren't you hot?" The summer solstice has passed, and the weather can be described as "hot and dry".It was incomprehensible for Chen Yunkai to wear long clothes and long sleeves in the [-]-degree weather.
"Oh——" Chen Yunkai sighed first, "Isn't it He Yi! It was agreed a long time ago that she would wear jk and I would wear dk, but she forgot..."
He Yi pushed Chen Yunkai lightly and said "Oh".
"What did He Chuan carry in his hand?" Jiang Chen looked at the steaming plastic bag and knew it was for food.
"Grilled skewers, Malatang, maocai and so on." Chen Yunkai said, "Forget it, I don't expect to be able to cook or anything, it's better to buy them."
Opening the door and entering the room, Jiang Chen and He Chuan went into the kitchen to pick up bowls of food, while Chen Yunkai and He Yi sat on the sofa and watched TV.
"Is there anything to buy?" Jiang Chen swallowed, seeing that all the dishes contained red peppers, and the spicy aroma rushed into his nose and throat. His senses were telling him that these dishes were extremely spicy.
"I forgot to buy it." He Chuan accidentally splashed oil on his fingers when he put the maocai into a big bowl.
The orange-red oil droplets jumped onto his fair skin, causing him to flinch.
Jiang Chen saw it, "Be careful!"
"Yeah." He Chuan quickly threw the plastic bag covered in red oil into the trash can.
Jiang Chen went to untie the bag containing the skewers, wondering why it was tied so tightly.The more he solved it, the more annoyed he became, and he was a little out of breath. He was about to tear open the plastic bag vigorously, but his hand was accidentally poked by the wooden stick inside.
He withdrew his hand in pain, looked down, and saw several dimples on his skin, only to hear He Chuan say, "Be careful."
Jiang Chen: "..."
It was hard to finish the food, but it was so spicy that he couldn't eat it, so Jiang Chen wanted to go down and buy a drink.
"I'm with you." He Chuan also walked to the entrance.
"It's okay, it's enough for me to go alone." Jiang Chen pushed his shoulders to prevent him from following.
"Leave me here as a light bulb?" He Chuan asked.
They looked at the couple who were talking and laughing on the sofa.
"...Okay." Jiang Chen opened the door and said to the two people on the sofa: "Let's go down to buy water, what do you drink?".
He Yi: "Anything is fine!"
They went downstairs to the supermarket together, looking at the rows of drinks, Jiang Chen was not sure, "What to drink?"
"It will be all right."
As expected of brothers and sisters, the two had the same answer.
Jiang Chen frowned, "It's really difficult for me to choose, you choose."
He Chuan smiled and took a large bottle of Sprite.
"Is one bottle enough?"
After hearing this, He Chuan went to get a big bottle of Coke.
When paying the bill, He Chuan had an extra bottle of soy milk in his hand.
"Is that He Chuan?
Jiang Chen turned around and saw two girls beside the snack shelf.
This is the disadvantage of living near the school, you can meet alumni in just a few steps.
"Let's go." He Chuan carried Sprite and soy milk, leaving a bottle of Sprite for Jiang Chen.
Walking out of the supermarket, Jiang Chen couldn't help but look back, "The recognition is really high."
"You are tall too."
"No no no." Jiang Chen shook his head.
The two are more polite than anyone else.
He Chuan explained: "At that time, you just paid attention to the back. You didn't see the cashier looking straight at you."
"Cashier? Isn't that cashier a middle-aged uncle?" Jiang Chen looked at the two girls patronizingly, and really didn't pay attention to the front.He looked back into the store again, only to find that it was a young sister.
He Chuan: "..."
"Look at me or you?" Jiang Chen wondered if the cashier had aesthetic problems.
"Jiang Chen, can you look in the mirror?"
"I'm pretty good-looking, but you're pretty good-looking."
After hearing this, He Chuan chuckled, shook his head and said nothing more.
After returning with the drinks, everyone sat at the dining table and wished He Yi a happy birthday with the cups in their hands.
"Fuck me, this maocai is so spicy!" Chen Yunkai covered his mouth and pointed at the maocai with his chopsticks.
Why does this picture seem familiar?
Chen Yunkai had already swallowed a small cup of drink, and He Chuan handed him the drink bottle.
"Shall we play something?"
"Do you want to play games later?" Chen Yunkai suggested.
He Chuan was the first to say "no".
Jiang Chen smiled while holding the paper cup in his hand, and took a sip of Sprite. He always felt that He Chuan's refusal was because Chen Yun was too good at playing games.
"It's boring to just eat, let's play truth or dare? If you refuse truth or dare, you can eat chili or pepper in maocai." Chen Yunkai ignored He Chuan's "no" and continued to propose.
He Yi was the first to express his opinion, "This is good, this is good." Then he smiled meaningfully at Chen Yunkai.
Since the birthday star wants to play, everyone must accompany him.
The three of them all saw He Yi's eyes, He Chuan and Jiang Chen looked at each other with understanding, even the big-hearted Chen Yunkai could see something was wrong, "Why... I have a bad feeling..."
"Rock, paper, scissors!" Everyone guessed fists together.
Jiang Chen and He Chuan produced stones, while Chen Yunkai and He Yi produced cloth.
"Brother, you and Brother Jiang come again."
The two people who came out of the stone looked at each other.
How do you feel that they are the ones who got caught?
"I offer stones, what do you offer?" Jiang Chen asked him before the start of the second round.
"Then I'll make a cloth." He Chuan looked calm.
As a result, He Chuan produced stones, and Jiang Chen produced cloth.
That's what boxing guessing is all about.It's nothing more than that I predicted your prediction, or I predicted your prediction wrongly.
"Tsk tsk, playing finger guessing and engaging in psychological warfare."
"Truth or Big Adventure?"
He Chuan didn't even think about it, and directly chose the big adventure.
He Yi: "Sing, sing "Itch" or "Qinghai-Tibet Plateau"!"
He Chuan: "..."
"Ha ha grass!"
"As expected of a sister hahaha."
Although He Chuan didn't sing, everyone was already wondering what He Chuan would look like when he sang these two songs.
He Yi also laughed foolishly.
He Chuan consciously picked up the chili from the maocai and put it in his mouth.
This is also expected, this person's idol burden has always been quite strong.
Jiang Chen was afraid that he would be burned, so he poured a drink from the side.
Everyone looked at He Chuan drinking water with red ears, and smiled with satisfaction as he had achieved his goal.
"Come again." After eating the chili, He Chuan's mouth turned red several degrees. He could interpret the words "delicate and charming" just by licking his lower lip.
This time it was Chen Yunkai who suffered, except for the stone he gave, the other three were all cloth.
"I wipe?"
He Yi laughed twice, "I got you!"
"I choose the truth!"
He thought he could escape by choosing the truth.
"Tell me the most embarrassing experience in your life. It must be the one that the three of us agree are very embarrassing."
Chen Yunkai hurriedly said, "I don't have any!"
"Eat chili without it."
Chen Yunkai was a little afraid of spicy food, and began to try hard to recall his past experiences.
"Ah, once I went back to the classroom for evening self-study after dinner, and when I was chatting with my classmates, the head teacher happened to be passing by. He called me to the office and scolded me. At that time, I didn't know I just listened to what I said. I just smiled awkwardly. He kept joking and laughing. I stopped laughing again."
"Is this not dead?" He Yi thought he had finished speaking.
"No, I haven't finished yet. Later, when I returned to class, my classmate continued to talk to me. When he talked about something funny, I started laughing. He laughed wildly all of a sudden. I wondered if it was necessary to laugh so exaggeratedly?" Chen Yunkai looked Become embarrassed, as if recalling something painful, "Then he said that I had two small pieces of pickles stuck to my two front teeth..."
"Hahahahaha I'm stupid! I'm dying of laughter, the head teacher must have seen it too." Jiang Chen himself felt embarrassed.
"Hahahahahahaha! Help!"
"Hahahaha!" He Yi patted the table with a smile, "Hahahaha, the kind of hindsight is the most embarrassing."
"The head teacher told you not to laugh, is it because he wants to laugh when he sees the vegetable leaves, so it's not easy to scold people seriously. Hahaha!" He Yi smiled until his two braids trembled.
The happiness of three people is based on the painful memory of one person.Chen Yunkai scratched his head, "I really... During that time, every day when I saw him, I couldn't help licking my teeth with my tongue, and then recalled the pickles on my front teeth... How could it be so coincidental, just two pieces, just covering his teeth? Front teeth! Gan!"
Everyone was still laughing, and Chen Yunkai hurriedly urged him to do the next move.
The way of heaven is reincarnation, this time it was Jiang Chen who lost in the boxing game, he chose the truth.
He Yi was a little embarrassed, and didn't dare to ask anything excessive, so he asked, "Brother Jiang, what color do you like?"
"Wipe? The water is so obvious?" Chen Yunkai was the first to dissatisfy, "You are not allowed to answer, I will ask again."
Jiang Chen didn't want to give him a chance, "I like it..."
Chen Yun got up and rushed forward to cover Jiang Chen's mouth, but accidentally poured the water over.The water glass fell to He Chuan's side, and some bubbling soda water was poured on him.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Chen Yunkai apologized repeatedly.
He Yi then slapped Chen Yunkai's arm a few times, "Brother, I'll help you vent your anger."
He Chuan remained silent.
There is a lot of sugar in Sprite, and when it dries, it becomes very sticky.
Jiang Chen took a look: "Do you want to change your pants?"
"You guys eat first." He said and took He Chuan to his room to find his pants.
I found a similar pair of black shorts in the closet and handed them to him, "He didn't do it on purpose, don't be angry."
"I'm not angry." He Chuan said.
"Your sister is also pretty good, and you two have a good relationship." Although the siblings didn't talk much, it can be seen from the interaction at the dinner table just now that the two have a good relationship. No wonder He Yiwang met Jishi, He Chuan Will check it out.
"Actually, He Yi's one is the only meaning." He Chuan paused, and said in a low voice: "She is not my own sister. She was abandoned by someone. My relative adopted her, but the relative passed away a few years ago. It’s gone, and other people don’t want to be such a burden, so they will go to my mother after turning around.”
Jiang Chen was a little shocked, "Is there no orphanage?"
"I don't know if there is one in our place, and my mother thought that instead of going to the orphanage, it would be better to come to my house."
"Don't adopters have to be childless?"
"That was a long time ago. Now that the policy has been relaxed, adopters with children can also adopt one person. And my mother is not considered an adoption, but just wants her to have a home. As for her name, auntie or mother, It doesn't matter."
Jiang Chen stood there motionless.The news came so suddenly that he couldn't hold back a word for a long time.
"You stand here and watch me change?" He Chuan tilted his head slightly.
"It's not impossible." Jiang Chen unconsciously looked at the wet part of his eyes.
He Chuan continued to stare at him.
"Uh, I'm just kidding." Jiang Chen went out and closed the door, standing outside the door, recalling He Chuan's words, and realized that it was probably because of the sentence he said at the dinner table, "You are worthy of being my own sister".
He Chuan might be worried that He Dui would care about such words, afraid that the girl would feel a little bit in her heart.
He couldn't help laughing, feeling that this person had a lot of tenderness.
Such a good brother will definitely be a good boyfriend.
