Lambs are plucked for wool every day

After the two talked, Lu Lang saw that there was still some time, so he dragged Yuan Xiaoyang to continue wandering in the mall.

The weather was hot, so Lu Lang bought a popsicle and ate it while walking.He licked a couple of mouthfuls of ice, and seeing Yuan Xiaoyang standing beside him had nothing to eat, he wanted to buy Yuan Xiaoyang an ice cream.

However, Yuan Xiaoyang himself was reluctant to buy it, and he didn't want to spend Lu Lang's money. In addition, after Zhou Qiang's incident just now, he was even more taboo, so he resolutely refused.In the end, Lu Lang had no choice but to ask Yuan Xiaoyang to lick a few popsicles.

"Can I not eat..."

"It's not negotiable, that's all."

Yuan Xiaoyang had no choice but to take the popsicle and lick it obediently.

"Eat more, and buy it after you finish eating."

Yuan Xiaoyang licked two more mouthfuls.This popsicle was lemon-flavored, sour and sweet, and Yuan Xiaoyang's eyes narrowed slightly after eating it.He squinted his eyes to look at Lu Lang, saw that Lu Lang was also looking at him, and supervised him as if he was afraid that he would miss a few bites.

After spending time with Lu Lang, Yuan Xiaoyang has gradually figured out Lu Lang's character.He found that as long as Lu Lang was around when he was eating, Lu Lang would want to buy him a piece. It's like wanting to eat but not daring to speak.Although Lu Lang seemed to ignore everyone, he cared about other people's feelings in this kind of place.

Yuan Xiaoyang doesn't like to take advantage of others, so Lu Lang's habit gives him a headache, but at the same time, he also feels that Lu Lang really treats him as a friend, otherwise he wouldn't treat him like this.In the end, he was very grateful to Lu Lang for being willing to treat him like this.

As long as Lu Lang doesn't keep threatening to pull his hair out.

"Don't eat it." Yuan Xiaoyang handed the popsicle back to Lu Lang, and Lu Lang asked again, after confirming that he really didn't want to eat it, he stuffed the popsicle into his mouth and continued to hang around with a stick in his mouth.

"That's right." Lu Lang suddenly thought of something, and pulled out the popsicle from his mouth, "When is your birthday?"

"More than August."

"What number?"

Yuan Xiaoyang didn't really want to say it, but there was no reason not to say it, so he could only whisper: "August 31."

"August 31?" Lu Lang was shocked, "You are so young?"

The entry date is September 31st, and those born on September [-]st are the oldest in the grade, while those born on August [-]st are the youngest in the grade.Lu Lang looked at Yuan Xiaoyang, who was not tall, and said, "It turns out that you are so short because you are young."

"Um……"

"Then your birthday is only a few days away, what gift do you want?"

"No gifts."

"Still thinking about Zhou Qiang? You didn't want to?" Lu Lang raised his hand and bumped into Yuan Xiaoyang, "Don't be polite."

Yuan Xiaoyang was indeed worried about Zhou Qiang saying that he approached Lu Lang for money, but he had other reasons besides that.

He looked up at Lu Lang and whispered, "It's not my birthday."

"why?"

"Because my mother threw me away that day."

Lu Lang was at a loss for words, he didn't know what to say to comfort Yuan Xiaoyang, he couldn't think of anything, so he just stuffed the popsicle into Yuan Xiaoyang's mouth, and rubbed Yuan Xiaoyang's hair casually.

The popsicle that was licked and licked by the two finally completely melted in Yuan Xiaoyang's mouth. With the popsicle stick in his mouth, Yuan Xiaoyang accepted Lu Lang's stroking comfort with a cute face.

Suddenly Lu Lang's cell phone rang, Lu Lang picked it up, said a few words and then hung up.Lu Lang asked: "They said they will go to City B for a few days after the birthday celebration, will you go?"

Yuan Xiaoyang shook his head, Lu Lang pulled out the stick from his mouth, and said, "This guy is pretty good, you don't have to be afraid."

"Not afraid." Yuan Xiaoyang shook his head, "But I want to work part-time, and I have to work part-time until the day before school starts."

"Are you still working part-time on your birthday?"

"Anyway, it's not my birthday, so it's better to do more."

This time Lu Lang's invitation failed, but he did not force Yuan Xiaoyang anymore.

Lu Lang and this buddy have a good friendship, and since school is about to start, there will be no chance if they don't go out for a while. Lu Lang thought about it and finally decided to go with Tang Jixiang.

When Lu Lang and the others went out to play, they planned to play until the day before school started.Therefore, after the two said goodbye at the mall that day, they did not see each other for several days.

In a blink of an eye, August 31st is Yuan Xiaoyang's birthday.

On this day, Yuan Xiaoyang got up at six o'clock as usual. After getting up, he steamed a steamed bun for himself and served some pickles for breakfast.

All the homework he had received during the summer vacation was finished, and the tutoring classes were also over. Today he has a whole day to stay at home.

School will start tomorrow. He took out the school uniform and ironed it again, then hung it up, and put the mended schoolbag next to the clothes. The summer homework was neatly placed in the schoolbag.

After packing up the school supplies, he gave the house a general cleaning, scrubbing everything that can be wiped and washed, and making the house clean.After cleaning, he couldn't take time off and started to practice English listening, and he heard noon as soon as he listened.

At noon, Yuan Chengqi hurried back.

When he opened the door, he saw Yuan Xiaoyang was at home, and he was surprised: "Why are you at home?"

"No class today."

"Hey, I want to give you a surprise. I didn't expect you to be at home." Yuan Chengqi was helpless, and then put a big paper bag on the table.Yuan Xiaoyang leaned over to look, and Yuan Chengqi took out the contents of the paper bag one by one.

In the paper bag was a set of guidance books for the second year of high school, a large can of calcium tablets and a red envelope.

"Why do you buy so much!" Yuan Xiaoyang was both happy and distressed about the money, and reached out to touch those things, "Is this book a lot of money? I'll go pick up the used ones..."

"Silly baby, how comfortable it is to use the book cleanly."

Knowing that his uncle loved him, Yuan Xiaoyang smiled foolishly.

Yuan Chengqi was both happy and distressed to see his Baa Bao so easily satisfied.He looked at Yuan Xiaoyang and said, "Congratulations to Baa Bao, who is 16 years old. I wish Baa Bao a smooth academic year, good health, rapid growth, and good friends."

Yuan Chengqi ran back during the lunch break, and after delivering gifts to Yuan Xiaoyang, he rushed back to work before he had time to eat.

After Yuan Chengqi left, Yuan Xiaoyang touched the book fondly, opened a calcium tablet and ate a piece, and secretly opened it to see how much money was in the red envelope.After watching it, he covered his mouth and laughed, and quickly stuffed the money into his piggy bank, thinking that he would work hard to make money, and buy good things for his uncle on his birthday.

Although Yuan Xiaoyang didn't have his birthday, he was still very happy that someone cared about him.

Although he said he didn't care, whenever he saw other people celebrating their birthdays, he still couldn't help feeling envious, and sometimes even imagined that his classmates brought cakes and sang happy birthday to him.

However, his birthday was in the summer vacation, and he didn't have any particularly good friends. It was impossible for him to have friends who came to celebrate his birthday specially. Every year on his birthday, only Yuan Chengqi would say happy birthday to him.

In this way, as soon as Yuan Chengqi left, his birthday was over.

In the afternoon, Yuan Xiaoyang worked part-time at a milk tea shop as usual.No one in the store knew that today was his birthday, and because one of the employees asked for leave, Yuan Xiaoyang doubled his workload.

Yuan Xiaoyang was so busy from afternoon to night that he was so busy that he didn't even have time to catch his breath.Finally, it was time to close the shop, and it took a lot of time to clean up under the shortage of manpower. Therefore, after Yuan Xiaoyang tidied up the shop and closed the iron gate, he looked at his watch and realized that it was almost eleven o'clock.

Yuan Xiaoyang had to go to school early tomorrow morning, so Yuan Xiaoyang hurried home.

On the eve of the start of school, there were fewer people on the road. Yuan Xiaoyang walked through the deserted street, and soon came to the dark alley again.

It was pitch black in the dark alley, and Yuan Xiaoyang was still a little scared.However, he didn't care whether he was afraid or not, he just wanted to go home quickly.

He walked into the alley with his head down, and suddenly, someone grabbed his arm.

He was startled, the fear of being blackmailed that day hit him again, but in the darkness, he heard a familiar sneer.

"Oh, coward, what are you afraid of?"

"Lu Lang?"

Lu Lang grabbed Yuan Xiaoyang's hand and led him out of the dark alley.

The street lamp outside the alley illuminated the two of them. Tonight, Lu Lang was wearing a black sportswear, and his appearance was as handsome as ever.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, where did you fool around?"

"I... I'm the only one closing the shop today, so it's late."

Under the night, Lu Lang was expressionless.However, when he saw Yuan Xiaoyang's nervous face, he showed a smile that was not a smile.

"Here, take it." Lu Lang handed Yuan Xiaoyang a big bag, "Birthday present."

"what?"

"Let me tell you first, I didn't stand here for a long time to hear you say you don't want it. If you dare to say no, I will pluck your hair right now. I didn't prepare wool care solution for you. Think about it clearly. .”

Of course Yuan Xiaoyang was not so unkind, he was both happy and embarrassed, took the bag with both hands and whispered: "Thank you..."

"Thank you." Lu Lang snorted, then raised his hand and looked at his watch.

Yuan Xiaoyang also understood that it was late, so he hurriedly said: "There is class tomorrow, you should go back quickly, it's too late and it's not safe."

"What's the rush? It's not over yet. It's not past twelve o'clock." Lu Lang still had another small bag in his hand. He opened the small bag, took out a small cake from the paper box inside, inserted a candle, and lit the fire.

Lu Lang has a cool expression, even holding a cake with strawberries on top is cool.

Looking at Lu Lang, Yuan Xiaoyang felt that the fantasy in his mind had come true, but he opened his mouth but couldn't speak.

"Listen well, you, Brother Lu, and I don't sing casually." Lu Lang said coldly, "But today, in order to let you experience what it means to celebrate a birthday, I reluctantly sing it for you."

Yuan Xiaoyang nodded blankly.

Under the street lamps at night, Lu Lang was holding a small cake, his expression was a little embarrassed, but he pretended to be calm.

He stared at the candle, and sang in a low voice: "Happy birthday to you...Happy birthday to you...Happy birthday to the little stupid sheep...Happy birthday to you..."

After singing, Yuan Xiaoyang stared at him blankly.

"What are you looking at!" Lu Lang said, "Quickly make a wish and blow out the candles!"

"Oh, good..." Yuan Xiaoyang looked at the candle busy, thinking about his wish seriously.

The candlelight illuminated the faces of the two teenagers, emitting a faint but firm heat in the summer night.

"The first wish, I hope that my uncle and I can be in good health."

"The second wish, I hope...I hope that Lu Lang can be happy every day."

"what?"

"The third wish..."

"You can't say the third wish, if you say it, it won't come true!"

"Oh, yes!" Yuan Xiaoyang stopped quickly, closed his eyes and seriously recited the third wish in his heart.

After making his wish, Yuan Xiaoyang blew lightly to extinguish the candle.

Lu Lang finally showed a smile. He put the cake back into the paper box, handed it to Yuan Xiaoyang and said, "Here, happy birthday!"

"Thank you……"

"Thank you, go back quickly! I'm so sleepy!" Lu Lang raised his hand and rubbed Yuan Xiaoyang's head, then waved his hand casually, said nothing, and left without looking back.

Yuan Xiaoyang stood there watching Lu Lang's leaving back, with a lot of thoughts in his heart, which could not be calmed down for a long time.

His third wish is that he hopes that he and Lu Lang can be good friends for a lifetime.
