MTL - Wear To the High School Days of Iceberg O-Chapter 84
"Wen Yao."
Looking at the sea of people in front of him, Wen Yao slowly raised his head.
"I got the cake." Jiang Shuyi lightly lifted the cake box in his hand.
"What are you looking at?" Jiang Shuyi followed Wen Yao's line of sight just now, and only saw a sea of pedestrians.
Just now, in order not to let Wen Yao know what the cake looked like, Jiang Shuyi asked Wen Yao to sit at the door of the cake room and wait for him.
"I didn't see anything," Wen Yao quietly got up from the bench, "Let's go back."
Jiang Shuyi followed, and she leaned against Wen Yao,
"Wen Yao, take my arm, I feel like my hands are so empty..."
"..." Wen Yao looked at the shopping bag in Jiang Shuyi's hand, and didn't think so at all.
Because Jiang Shuyi wants everything she sees, especially those things that are in pairs, so she bought a bunch of things from toothbrushes to daily drinking cups, so now Jiang Shuyi has big bags and small bags .
It was absolutely impossible to put another hand in that arm.
But even so, this person's face is still very happy, and his eyes are shining brightly.
Comparing the expressions of the two, Wen Yao didn't know who was celebrating his birthday for a while.
"Aren't you tired?"
Wen Yao didn't take her arm, but took a few paper bags from her hand.
"I don't think so," Jiang Shuyi smiled, and lightly bumped Wen Yao's head with his head, "Are you worried about me?"
"Well, you are worried about me." Jiang Shuyi smiled.
The two of them strolled down the street and went back slowly.
--
After returning home, Jiang Shuyi put the things aside, before she took off her coat, she impatiently hugged Wen Yao and kissed her.
"finally arrived at home."
-Got home…
Wen Yao blinked.
Jiang Shuyi kept yelling that today was Wen Yao's birthday, telling Wen Yao not to enter the kitchen, and then walked in with candles and cake.
Wen Yao didn't say anything, and slowly began to organize the things in the bag.
Looking at the pair of cups that Jiang Shuyi had just chosen, she couldn't help but feel a little silly.
Obviously she said that the style of the cups at home is the same, but Jiang Shuyi said "the pattern is different, this one is cuter", "it's not expensive", and put it in the shopping basket.
When he opened the shopping bag, he found that Jiang Shuyi also bought some things that were not useful at all.
Wen Yao didn't understand why so many useless things could be produced in this world, and he didn't understand Jiang Shuyi who could still buy them even if they were useless.
— Shouldn’t there be spare money in this alpha wallet?
"..." Wen Yao frowned.
She didn't tidy up for a while, Jiang Shuyi turned off the light in the living room, sang a birthday song and came out with a birthday cake.
Jiang Shuyi's singing was pretty good, but Wen Yao suddenly felt that it was very discordant.
happy birthday song.
This is not something that is rare to hear, but Wen Yao feels like it was a long time ago when he heard it on his birthday.
"Happy birthday."
Jiang Shuyi seemed very happy to put the cake in front of Wen Yao, while clapping his hands, he put the little hat given to her by the cake shop on Wen Yao's head.
"The sandwich of this cake has a special pudding, and there are fruits you like in it. The cream is not too greasy. I have chosen it for a long time."
"How is it, Wen Yao?"
Jiang Shuyi sat beside her with a smile, as if asking for her praise, and said:
"Do you like this cake?"
"..." Wen Yao felt very uncomfortable in his head.
The candles on the cake were burning, and there was a firework stick in the middle, the fire light illuminated Jiang Shuyi's face, her smile was very sincere.
"Um."
Wen Yao didn't understand why Jiang Shuyi could always smile so happily, he looked at the eager fire light in a daze, then glanced at Jiang Shuyi beside him, and said quietly: "...Thank you."
In any case, there are indeed people in this world who do not celebrate their birthdays, and Wen Yao is one of them.
But if she was asked to say whether she would be happy if someone was willing to celebrate her in this way, she really couldn't say the word "unhappy".
Jiang Shuyi looked at her expectantly,
"Wen Yao, Wen Yao, remember to make a wish before you blow out the candles."
"Make a wish..." Wen Yao repeated it.
"Ah? Don't you know? When you blow out the candles on the birthday cake, you can make three wishes."
Jiang Shuyi thought he had discovered Wen Yao's blind spot and began to explain.
"…I know."
Wen Yao looked at the candlelight reflected in Jiang Shuyi's eyes, sighed and said quietly:
"In the past, some people thought that the smoke from blowing out the candles would lead to heaven, so they made a wish on the candles."
"Because, people think, that puff of smoke will go to heaven with their wishes."
It's not that she doesn't know, it's just that she can't close her eyes and sincerely make a wish like Jiang Shuyi said.
Wishing on a cake is something only children do.
Wen Yao believes that nothing will happen even if you make a wish on a piece of cake. It is just an unscientific statement that blowing out the candle will make the wish come true, and it is just a value given by people.
If it is as long as you make a wish on the candle on the cake, your wish will come true, then there must be no candles in this world...
"That's it."
Jiang Shuyi nodded after hearing Wen Yao's words, and immediately ran to open the French windows of the living room.
As soon as the floor-to-ceiling windows were opened, the cold air outside the window suddenly entered.
"What are you doing?" Wen Yao frowned.
"With the windows open, the smoke should travel a little faster."
Jiang Shuyi hugged his shoulders and looked at Wen Yao and took a breath, "Wen Yao, hurry up and make a wish."
-Fool.
Wen Yao thought about it, but in such an atmosphere, she closed her eyes for a moment.
After counting the appropriate time in her mind, she slowly opened her eyes and looked at Jiang Shuyi who was sitting on the side looking at her expectantly.
"Well, all right." She responded authentically.
Jiang Shuyi tugged at her sleeve, "What wish did you make?"
Jiang Shuyi asked in a low voice, as if he was afraid of disturbing the candlelight.
"Why do you ask this?" Wen Yao looked at Jiang Shuyi and frowned slightly.
"I want to know what wish you will make, of course it is to get to know you better," Jiang Shuyi smiled, reluctantly,
"I also want to know if the wish you made has something to do with me. If it has something to do with me, I can help you realize it without the smoke from the candle going to heaven..."
Jiang Shuyi looked at Wen Yao seriously, and spoke plausibly.
Wen Yao held his chin and looked at Jiang Shuyi seriously, and narrowed his eyes.
"Yeah."
Wen Yao's voice was faint, she averted her gaze without showing any trace, and blew out the candle with a light breath.
"Hey...why don't you believe me?" Jiang Shuyi was a little dissatisfied, every time she said seriously, Wen Yao took it as a lie.
"Just tell me, I won't tell anyone else."
Jiang Shuyi took Wen Yao's hand, trying to find out why.
"Go and close the French windows, lest you catch a cold." Wen Yao said quietly.
--
"This one is for you."
While Jiang Shuyi was reading the ingredients of the cake, Jiang Shuyi sent the chocolate caramel piece with Wen Yao's name in the middle to Wen Yao's mouth.
Wen Yao gently opened his mouth and ate it.
"There's a little left." Jiang Shuyi looked at the melted chocolate on his thumb and index finger, and licked it without hesitation, "This is delicious."
——Obviously just now he was very noisy, but now he suddenly became happy.
Wen Yao rested his chin and looked at Jiang Shuyi in disbelief.
"Baby, this is yours." Jiang Shuyi shook his shoulders, cut another big cake and placed it in front of Wen Yao.
Wen Yao looked at the large piece of cake in the plate and frowned slightly.
The two of them had already had dinner outside, so Wen Yao felt that the shape of this big piece was beyond his imagination.
But Jiang Shuyi ate with relish, his face was covered with cream, and his slovenliness remained as usual.
Wen Yao quietly moved the strawberry and pudding parts on top of the cake to Jiang Shuyi, "Eat more."
Jiang Shuyi nodded happily.
--
After eating the cake, Jiang Shuyi dragged Wen Yao to the yard again, because the Spring Festival had passed and there was no place where he could buy fireworks at any time.
Jiang Shuyi bought the firework sticks in the mall, although this one is not as loud as the bazooka, and the sparks are not too big, but it is very safe and very beautiful.
Because he didn't want to use a lighter to light the fire every time, Jiang Shuyi lit a big candle in the yard.
"I'm so happy." Jiang Shuyi sighed.
"Shall we go further afield in the future?"
—How long is it in the future... how far is the farther place...
Wen Yao lowered his gaze.
Jiang Shuyi secretly observed Wen Yao's expression, "What are you thinking now? Wen Yao."
"I'm not sure." Wen Yao looked up at Jiang Shuyi as if he had recovered.
"Then I guess you like me so much by now."
Jiang Shuyi whispered in her ear.
She's been saying this a lot lately.
The orange candle and fire light illuminated Wen Yao's face, she raised her head to look at Jiang Shuyi, who was also looking at her.
Wen Yao found his own shadow reflected in Jiang Shuyi's pupils, the sparks and his own shadow looked very hot in this person's eyes.
Looking into her eyes, Wen Yao stretched out his hand to hook Jiang Shuyi's neck and kissed her...
