Ye Gu looked at the yard with twinkling lights and the friends around him, with infinite emotions surging in his heart.
Luo Yang was holding the cake, and his smiling eyes were right in front of him. This feeling of being so close was like a lifetime ago.
Tian Tian smiled and murmured at the side: "Master, now I believe we didn't abduct your Ahe, right? Although you and I don't get along with each other, I can't help but wish you the best on this special day today. Happy birthday!”
The sound of blessings came one after another, and Ye Gu smiled.
Luo Yang looked at him and mouthed, "So birthday boy, do you want to make a wish?"
The flickering candle flame was graceful and independent in the night, reflecting on Luo Yang's face, and the hanging locks of hair also flowed unexpectedly.
He closed his eyes, clasped his hands together, and countless images rushed out of his mind, all spread out in front of his eyes.
He couldn't tell when he started not liking birthdays so much.
Surrounded by the blessings and cheers of friends, it seemed that for a moment, the soul returned to his student days. At that time, he was still surrounded by stars, and there was never a lack of friends to form games. Such lively scenes, but in every game, there is a person from A person who has not changed.
Opening his eyes, the moment he blew out the candle, the lights in the yard dimmed very cleverly, and he just looked at Luo Yang boldly and unabashedly in the darkness.
"Thank you, Ahe."
It seems that this title has not been spoken for a long time. At this moment, fortunately, I can use the name of the birthday girl to call her Ahe in a luxurious but appropriate way.
Ye Gu suddenly felt that celebrating birthdays was not such a bad thing, although most of his friends around him didn't like celebrating birthdays that much, maybe because they were getting older or because they felt childish, for various reasons.
The darkness did not last long, and the yard was shrouded in light again. Luo Yang looked at Ye Gu without saying a word. He seemed to be thinking about something, and his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled.
Ye Gu was slightly startled, "What's wrong?"
The next second, Luo Yang stretched out a finger, and cream appeared on Ye Gu's cheeks.
He was stunned, but Luo Yang burst into laughter, attracting everyone in the yard to look over.
Luo Yang smiled so hard that his eyes were crystal clear. Ye Gu watched her running and laughed: "You are not allowed to avenge yourself! This is what every birthday girl must have!"
With a solemn face, Li Huai was afraid that he would suddenly become angry and wanted to step forward to calm the atmosphere. However, before he could say anything, Ye Gu suddenly turned around and slapped Li Huai on the face with his hand.
Face covered with cream, extremely funny.
Ye Gu looked naughty and smiled treacherously: "Hahaha! This is a benefit given to you by my birthday girl!"
The scene was stunned for half a second, and the audience burst into laughter. The atmosphere was warm and joyful.
A group of people were chasing each other in the yard, just like a group of teenagers. Luo Yang wiped his fingers and couldn't help laughing while watching the funny scene of a few grown men smearing cream on each other by the grill.
Sang Huaiyu put the oil brush in his hand aside and let the charcoal fire roast freely.
"Actually, you are suitable for getting along like this."
Luo Yang came back to his senses and responded to Sang Huaiyu: "What kind of relationship?"
Tian Tian came over holding roasted corn and interjected: "Isn't it like this when you were sitting at the same table before? A typical happy enemy, but now it seems that the young master may just like to tease you."
Luo Yang's personality is relatively gentle, and it is almost difficult to get into an argument with her, but Ye Gu just doesn't believe in evil and loves challenges. He firmly believes that no one has a bad temper.
He did it indeed. Only Ye Gu could make Luo Yang, who had always been mature and calm, jump. Ye Gu had always enjoyed doing this, and he liked to make all kinds of troubles to make Luo Yang angry.
Luo Yang couldn't help laughing when he recalled this.
"I'm too boring. Who would want to be friends with a boring person." Except for him, this young man who is always heroic.
"It's not interesting anymore, it's because those people have no vision." Tian Tian bit the skewers and complained even though he couldn't speak clearly.
Luo Yang smiled and gently rubbed the top of her hair.
She breathed a sigh of relief, "This birthday should be similar to his previous birthdays. With you guys by his side, he won't be lonely."
Tian Tian stopped, frowned slightly, and said seriously: "How long has it been since his birthday, okay?"
The movements in Luo Yang's hands suddenly stopped, and he looked at Tian Tian.
Half convinced and half suspicious, "No... birthday? Doesn't he like parties the most?"
Tian Tian shook her head. She didn't understand the young master's thoughts. People said that women have deep hearts, but the same applies to Ye Gu.
"A young master's heart is like a needle in the sea", it's not for nothing.
After playing for a long time, I was a little tired, so I sat down around the long table.
It is rare for a narcissistic person like Bian Yao to laugh at himself: "I'm done with it. If I were 18 and ran ten laps, I wouldn't even be out of breath."
Xi Jinzhou sneered and laughed at him: "Who is it that can't even run past Luoyang after running 800 meters?"
Bian Yao: "... Crowdfunding will help me seal his mouth."
Sang Huaiyu was not from Pingcheng, so he didn't know these things and was inevitably curious.
Tian Tian and Luo Yang are most familiar with each other, and he said in an obedient manner: "Our Ah He used to be on the school's long-distance running team, if it weren't for——"
Tian Tian's expression suddenly became strange, and he smiled vaguely.
"I quit because of my studies hahahaha."
The expressions of several other people at the table didn't look good and they remained silent about this matter. On the contrary, the person involved, Luo Yang, looked as usual.
Sang Huaiyu vaguely felt something was wrong.
Luo Yang didn't know when he was dragged away by Ye Gu to the deserted backyard.
The two of them walked side by side. There were so many stars tonight. Maybe it was because they were far away from the city, or maybe it was something else. No one could guess what the stars were thinking. "Would you regret quitting the long-distance running team because of that incident?" Ye Gu finally asked.
He glanced slightly sideways, as if looking at her expression, but Luo Yang looked unfazed.
She looked at the night sky, "I have no regrets. That letter was indeed written by me. I dare to admit it, right?"
Ye Gu paused for a long while, hiding his loneliness and answered: "Yes."
That year, Luo Ke had just entered the new school, and Luo Yang was given the unshirkable task of guiding Luo Ke to get familiar with the campus.
Luo Ke was only one year younger than her and was on the second floor, so he often went up to the third floor to look for her in Luo Yang's class.
After going back and forth, everyone in the class knew about the relationship between Luo Ke and Luo Yang, but everyone tacitly never mentioned the two people together in front of Luo Yang, as it was a taboo topic.
At that time, Luo Yang was still in the long-distance running team, and he could only go home after training every time after school. At first, Luo Ke would go home by himself, but later, for some unknown reason, he would always wait for Luo Yang to finish training and go home together.
Luo Yang refused, but he couldn't resist Luo Ke's various beggings. She was already soft-hearted and didn't have that much thought, so she let her go, but Luo Yang and she still talked little.
When Luo Yang was training, Luo Ke was waiting for her on Luo Yang's seat in the classroom while doing her homework.
After a training session as usual, when I went to school the next day, everything changed.
Luo Yang was called to the office by the teacher and an envelope was thrown to her. Luo Yang didn't know what was going on, but the teacher's voice was cold and sharp: "Look at what you are doing in school!"
< br>
The moment Luo Yang saw the envelope, her heart skipped a beat. How could she not recognize this envelope? This was a letter she had not yet had time to send after she had finished writing it.
She knew the contents by heart without having to read them. Because she was afraid of making mistakes, she even made a draft before copying the final contents onto the letter paper.
The teacher looked at her with seriousness and disappointment in his eyes, and she felt heartbroken.
"Luo Yang, you have always been excellent. How could you write something like a love letter?! Tell the teacher honestly, did someone else ask you to help write it? Or is it not yours at all? As long as you say it, teacher We will help you solve it.”
There was a buzz in the office. Under the teacher's eager eyes, Luo Yang raised his eyes seriously and persistently.
She said: "Teacher, I wrote this letter, not to help or for any other reason."
The teacher laughed angrily, and drew a long arc on the paper with the red pen in her hand. She stood up and walked around the office.
"Luoyang, I really don't understand you. Why did you write to the sports committee member of your class? What on earth do you think? Why don't you tell the teacher?"
Luo Yang was stunned. She clearly wrote...
When I took it out and looked at it, I found that the signature on it had been changed, but the word was not written by her. Although the handwriting was eighty or ninety percent similar, there was a habitual dot behind the name. This action was not what Luo Yang was used to. Yes, the one who has this habit is none other than Luo Ke.
At that time, she actually felt relieved. She was glad that she didn't let the teacher know who the name was on it, and she was glad that she didn't let him know her feelings in such an embarrassing and embarrassing situation.
Luo Yang was also considered a student that the director was very interested in. Out of concern for her talents, she strictly ordered Luo Yang to quit the long-distance running team in order to reduce the time she spent with the sports committee member.
But the news about that incident somehow leaked out, and Ye Gu knew everything.
He didn't know that Luo Yang liked the sports committee member of his class.
Ye Gu ridiculed her for a long time, for no reason, he just wanted to say something when he saw her.
At that time, the most common thing he said was, "If you ask me to tell you, you really don't have eyes for men."
Because of this incident, Ye Gu also had a bad attitude towards the sports committee member, and even got into a fight. Luo Yang stepped forward to stop him, and Ye Gu was punched by the sports committee member.
During that time, Luo Yang spoke loudly to Ye Gu for the first time: "Ye Gu! Can you stop being so naive! There is no reason for anything you do. Not everyone can always spoil you!"
< br>
The movement stopped, and Ye Gu just looked at her like that, his eyes suddenly dropped to freezing point, and he looked at Luo Yang with a sneer, "Yes, I am naive, but you are mature! You two are a perfect match! I am a big bastard who is meddling in other people's business!"
Later, for a long time, neither man spoke, and it was one of the rare cold wars between two people.
Ye Gu looked at her, as if recalling the incident, "Did you see the sports committee member again later?"
Luo Yang pursed his lips lightly, "I've seen him in WeChat Moments. He's married and has a baby. He's very cute."
Ye Gu's expression was unbearable and he didn't know what to say to ease it.
Luo Yang knew his thoughts well, smiled openly, and curved his cheeks.
"I remember I promised you a condition before. You can make a request to me on your birthday. No matter what it is, I will agree to it. Do you want to use it now?"
She looked at him quietly, her heart beating like a drum, as if there was an unknown courage that strongly pushed Luo Yang to make a crazy decision today.
Ye Gu looked at her, as if to confirm whether she was really willing to tell him something.
After a while, his eyelashes moved slightly, and the hand in his trouser pocket was holding something tightly.
"Are you still sad when you see him now?"
Luo Yang was slightly stunned, feeling funny and indescribably moved in her heart. She thought Ye Gu would ask some other questions, such as the content of the letter, or something else.
Looking at him, he asked if she would still be sad.
Under the dark night, unable to see clearly due to the redness of his eyes, Luo Yang found a place to sit down, which was unusually rough.
She did not answer Ye Gu's question, but tilted her head slightly and asked: "I think you can choose to change the question, such as who the letter is for."
Ye Gu was a little confused, thinking that he had hit Luo Yang's sore spot, and nodded stupidly, "Ah, okay, then who is this letter for-"
After saying that, he touched the back of his neck and regretted, and whispered softly: "You are stupid or not, Ye Gu, didn't you already write to the sports committee member..."
"No."
Ye Gu was surprised: "Huh?"
"It was never written to him."
"Who was that written to?"
Ye Gu followed her words and asked, his eyes gently looking at Luo Yang's profile.
"That letter was written to--" Luo Yang turned to look at him and spoke word by word.
