Chapter 24: 24 Cakes & Goblins

After reluctantly making Lu Jinchang toss for a while, Yao Jing finally couldn't help it, and started to chase people away: "You are endless, aren't you? If you don't want me to do it yourself, I will automatically and consciously go back to my room to sleep .”

Lu Jinchang hurriedly put it away, put his hands on his hips, and said condescendingly to Yao Jing who was sitting on the sofa: "You are lucky, you have learned this lesson today."

He had a good time, and when he left, his face was full of joy.

Lu Jinchang's room was close to the stairs, and when he came to the door and was about to go in, he suddenly heard a movement downstairs.

So he ran downstairs out of curiosity, the light in the utility room was on, and Yao Chuxi was standing on a chair, trying to reach for something on the wardrobe.

"Xiao Xi, what are you doing?" Lu Jinchang stood at the door and asked with his head poked.

Seeing that he came at the right time, Yao Chuxi waved to him and said, "Lu Lu, come and help me with my chair."

Lu Jinchang nodded and walked over to help him.

After some questioning, he found out that Yao Chuxi was drinking on the bed earlier, and accidentally spilled the drink on the quilt.

Because he was afraid of being reprimanded by Yao Jing, he just went up to the roof to wash the quilt overnight, and now he is about to get a new one.

The wardrobe for the quilt was a bit high, and it took Yao Chuxi a while to get it.

There was a small cardboard box next to the quilt. I didn't know what was in it, so I took it out by the way.

"What is this?" Lu Jinchang asked.

There were several thick photo albums in the cardboard box. Yao Chuxi took out one casually, opened it and glanced at it: "Do you want to see my cousin's old photos?"

Lu Jinchang nodded again and again, and moved over excitedly: "I want to see, I want to see!"

There were no beds or chairs in the utility room, and the two of them simply sat on the floor, holding the photo album in their hands, looking back on the past youthful years of Master Yao with relish.

The photos here are almost all taken by Yao Jing when he was studying, most of them were in high school.

Yao Jing's face in his youth had a kind of greenness that hadn't bloomed yet. At that time, he was already a master at pretending to be cool and handsome, and his whole body exuded the frivolity and arrogance that I am not afraid of.

One of them was taken at the gate of the campus.

In the photo, Yao Jing, Ding Han, Zhan Xinpeng and other brothers are standing together, and beside each of them is an expensive and extremely attractive heavy motorcycle.

Yao Jing standing in the center is the most eye-catching existence. He has his hands in his trouser pockets and a school uniform jacket on his body. He has one foot on the front wheel of a heavy motorcycle. The pair of red limited-edition sneakers are high-profile and eye-catching. .

With a cigarette in his mouth, he raised his chin so high that it almost reached the sky, facing the direction of the camera, with a terrified expression.

Yao Chuxi used to be an admirer of Yao Jing, but now looking back at the photos of his cousin's uncle, his mentality has changed drastically.

He couldn't help complaining for a while: "Fuck, was my cousin such a high school student before? I thought his outfit was really cool at the time. My head must have been caught by the door!"

"Really?" Lu Jinchang pulled out the photo, looked back and forth several times, and said disapprovingly, "But I think he's so majestic."

Lu Jinchang ignored Yao Chuxi's surprised gaze, took out his mobile phone to take a picture of the photo, and then scrolled down.

"I have an impression of this one!" Yao Chuxi stopped turning the page and pointed to the photo in the lower left corner.

It was filmed in the KTV wing room. Yao Jing, Ding Han and others were sitting together. There was a birthday cake filled with candles on the table, and there were many gifts piled up next to it. It looked like a party.

The moment the shutter was pressed, Yao Jing was holding a fruit knife in his hand and preparing to cut the cake.

Yao Chuxi told Lu Jinchang the story behind the photo: "It was my cousin's birthday that day. Originally, he invited his brothers to celebrate together. I insisted on pestering him and going with him, but he refused. He hugged his leg on the ground and cried loudly, but in the end he couldn't hold me back and took me with him very disgusted, hahaha."

That photo is quite old. When it was developed, the date and year were recorded in the lower right corner.

When Lu Jin often looked at it, he kept an eye on it and wrote down the date on it.

At night, Lu Jin often got under the covers to play with his mobile phone. He opened the calendar and looked through it, and his eyes settled on the space for next Thursday.

Judging from the date on the previous photo, Yao Jing's birthday was on that day.

An idea came to Lu Jinchang's mind, and he made a red star on the calendar.

After finishing, he sent a message to Yao Jing.

On the point of noting to friends on WeChat, Lu Jinchang and Yao Jing have similarities, they both like to call others nicknames.

When adding friends before, Yao Jing noted "Second Master Yao" in Lu Jinchang's address book.

Lu Jinchang didn't like this name very much, and later he revised it again, and remarked Yao Jing as "Little Fairy", and the name was taken from the homonym of Yao Jing.

[Lu Jinchang]: Are you sleeping?

After waiting for a while, Yao Jing didn't reply, so Lu Jinchang continued to post on his own.

[Lu Jinchang]: I saw your previous photos today.

[Little Fairy]: What?

Yao Jing's reply this time was quite timely, it was obvious that he was playing dead before.

Lu Jin often sent the reprinted photo just now.

[Lu Jinchang]: This picture makes you very majestic!

[Little Fairy]: ...Don't mention this sentence to me again.

[Lu Jinchang]: Why?

Yao Jing deliberately ignored his question, and replied: I'm tired, I want to sleep.

[Lu Jinchang]: Okay, good night

[Little Fairy]: ...good night

After sending a message to Yao Jing, Lu Xun's video call came back.

Lu Jinchang hadn't contacted Lu Xun for almost two months. As soon as the video was connected, he happily yelled at the person over there: "Brother!"

At this time, Lu Xun had already settled down. After changing and washing, his appearance was much cleaner and tidier than when he met Yao Jing in the afternoon.

Lu Jinchang was still lying on the bed at this time, the surroundings were completely dark, and he couldn't see anything.

Lu Xun asked, "Where are you now?"

"In the room, you called just as I was about to go to bed." He got up from the bed while talking, and turned on the bedside lamp.

Judging from the layout of the room behind Lu Jinchang, it is obvious that he is not currently in Lu's house.

"I'm at Yao Jing's house now." Lu Jinchang told him, "I forgot the password of our door and I can't go back, so I'm staying with him during this time."

Lu Jinchang's tone was brisk and lively. From the communication with his younger brother, Lu Xun found that Lu Jinchang's thinking was quite normal. It seems that the degree of damage to his brain seems to be much better than he originally expected.

Although the wisdom has been lowered, no matter what, it is good that people are safe and fine.

Lu Xun nodded and asked him: "I heard that you injured your head before, how is the situation now?"

"I broke my head, but now the wound is healed. Yao Jing takes me to the hospital for follow-up visits every week. The doctor said that I have some amnesia." Lu Jinchang touched his chin and thought for a while, "I don't know exactly Yeah, but I feel like I'm in pretty good shape."

Lu Jinchang's mood really looked pretty good, without any trace of camouflage.

Lu Xun laughed and said, "Why is your pajamas so funny, I haven't seen you wearing this kind of clothes before."

"Yao Jing bought it for me, and I still have Pikachu's pajamas!"

Lu Jinchang couldn't wait to jump out of bed, and found the Pikachu pajamas in the closet.

"He also bought me a Pikachu T-shirt, a water glass, a hat, a pillow..." Lu Jinchang counted them one by one, "There is also a little genius phone watch, which is very cool and beautiful!"

The more he talked, the more he got up, wishing to take out all those things and display them one by one in front of Lu Xun.

Seeing that he was so excited, he should be doing well recently, Lu Xun probably had a preliminary understanding of his brother's current situation, so he was a little relieved.

"By the way, brother, when are you coming back?" Lu Jinchang asked.

In fact, the procedures for returning to China have been completed, but because the local riots have not completely subsided, the airport has to be temporarily closed. Recently, Lu Xun and his company have been staying in the hotel, waiting for the storm to calm down for a while. .

Regarding the situation on his side, Lu Xun felt that there was no need to talk too much with Lu Jin, he just said: "I will come back as soon as possible after the matter is over."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you, let's go eat hot pot together when we come back!"

Yao Chuxi is about to be relieved recently, because the university is about to start.

Although he doesn't like going to school very much, at least going back to school to live is much better than Lai being scolded every day at Yao Jing's house.

Lu Jinchang looked at Yao Chuxi who was packing up and was about to go back to school, and asked, "Aren't you going to work part-time at the milk tea shop?"

"It will be busy after school starts. The milk tea shop is quite far from my school, and it is not convenient to go there."

"Remember to send me messages often when you go back to school."

"Okay." After getting along with Lu Jinchang for a while, Yao Chuxi told him before leaving, "Don't get lost without me going to and from get off work with you."

"I'm an adult now, and I can move on my own." Lu Jinchang patted his chest, "Don't worry, I've memorized the usual ride routes, it's no problem."

After Yao Chuxi started school, Lu Jinchang began to go out to work alone.

The place where he works is in the same direction as Yao Jing's company, but because their working hours do not coincide, they go out separately every day.

There is a direct bus to the hamburger restaurant at the gate of Yao Jing's community, and now Lu Jinchang is equipped with a phone and watch, so that he can know his movement track and precise location at any time, which naturally saves some worries and worries.

Lu Jinchang had a rest this afternoon. After finishing his shift with his colleagues, he did not take the bus directly to go back as usual, but went to a nearby shopping mall for a stroll.

When he and Song Lefan went out to play before, he learned that there is a relatively famous cake shop here.

This time I came here specially to order cakes in advance.

He has been thinking about Yao Jing's birthday.

Although it was said that Yao Jing was the culprit who caused him to smash his head, Yao Jing treated him very well during these days.

I have been eating and living with him all the time, and I have also taken a lot of things from Yao Jing, so it is appropriate to celebrate his birthday, right?

Lu Jinchang originally took a fancy to a Pikachu cake and liked it very much, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that since it was bought for someone else's birthday, it seemed inappropriate to choose according to his own preferences.

So he had to reluctantly abandon Pikachu and choose another one.

When paying, the clerk asked him, "Do you want to write blessings on the cake?"

"Can I write anything?"

"As long as it's not too long."

Lu Jin often chose a regular sentence pattern of "Happy birthday to XX".

"Fill 'goblin' in the name," he told the clerk.

And then the age...

Lu Jin often uses a calculator to do calculations. During the calculation process, he may have pressed a certain key wrongly, resulting in the calculation result being 51.

The key point is that Lu Jinchang doesn't seem to realize what's wrong with this result.

51 years old?Goblin?

The clerk looked confused, in order to prevent mistakes, he confirmed to Lu Jinchang again: "Excuse me, do you want to write 'Happy 51st birthday to the little fairy' on the cake?"

Lu Jinchang nodded with great certainty: "Yes, just write this!"
