Chapter 168 The meaning of reading

Hu Li attaches great importance to her boyfriend's birthday, which is reflected in two specific aspects.

First, she didn't book any high-end restaurants, but planned to cook herself and have a romantic candlelight dinner with her boyfriend at home.

Secondly, she practiced several dishes for this dinner for less than half a month.

Just these two points alone are enough to show that she attaches great importance to her boyfriend's birthday.

As for the gifts she prepared... In her concept, gifts that can be bought with money are nothing.

After Lu Yao arrived at Fortune Garden at around 5 o'clock, as soon as he entered the house, he saw petals scattered on the floor tiles at the door.

The corner of his mouth twitched.

OK.

Although this kind of arrangement was quite popular in this era, from Lu Yao's current perspective... this kind of arrangement is indeed a bit "vulgar".

But he would definitely not complain about his girlfriend's feelings, not to mention... the real owner was still wearing an apron and cooking.

When she heard the door opening, Hu Li turned her head. When she saw her boyfriend, she quickly screamed:

"Ah! Close your eyes!"

"...Close your eyes?"

"Yes, yes, close your eyes!"

Lu Yao had no choice but to close his eyes and asked:

"Let's agree first. Taking off your clothes and giving yourself to me as a gift doesn't count!"

"...hehe."

The young woman showed a somewhat cowardly smile and then said:

"Don't open your eyes, wait until I finish frying this dish."

"...so long?"

"Oh, it's so fast. Don't open your eyes... you came back too early!"

Lu Yao listened to her complaints and smelled the aroma of the food. After waiting for about two or three minutes, he finally heard the sound of turning off the fire.

Immediately afterwards, he felt his girlfriend running past him.

"Why go?"

"Wait a minute..."

Soon, she turned back again, and Lu Yao heard the sound of plastic bags.

Just as I was wondering what it was, I heard her say:

"Okay, you can open your eyes."

Lu Yao opened his eyes again, and suddenly felt a blur on his face.

Countless petals accompanied by his girlfriend's tossing, from in front of him... Well, how did that song come to be sung. Have these flying flowers fallen?

The scene before me just corresponds to this lyrics.

Immediately afterwards, Hu Li grabbed a handful of petals from the plastic bag and threw them away while holding Lu Yao's hand and leading him to her practice room.

Spread one step at a time.

Lu Yao deliberately complained that he was the one who had trouble cleaning the house...

But seeing her smiling face, he just let her go.

Finally arriving at the door of the practice room, Sister Yu threw the bag of flower petals aside, covered Lu Yao's eyes, and then opened the door.

"Ta-da~"

Lu Yao could clearly see what was inside under the confusing movements.

A pile of large and small gift boxes filled the corner of the practice room, and there was even a bicycle hanging with a colorful ribbon.

"..."

He was speechless and looked at his girlfriend subconsciously:

"You mean... let me choose one of these gifts?"

"No."

Hu Li shook his head with a smile, pointed at the pile of gifts and said:

"You start with the smallest number."

"Uh...Okay."

Lu Yao nodded and walked over.

After glancing back and forth, I found "1".

A box that couldn't be any smaller.

He tore the wrapping paper directly, and then twitched the corner of his mouth...

Inside is a jewelry box with the name: Chow Tai Fook.

After opening it, there was a longevity lock about the size of a coin.

"...Are you pregnant?"

Lu Yao was confused.

"What are you thinking about?"

Hu Li rolled his eyes and continued:

"Tear down the second one."

So, Lu Yao picked up the box with the number "2", and after opening it, he found a chicken doll inside.

"What... does this mean?"

He still didn't understand.

But without his girlfriend having to say anything, he directly opened the number "3".

Inside is a Transformers robot toy.

Next is "4", and inside 4 is a piggy bank.

5 is a big box with a remote control racing car inside.

Then 6, a set of Lego spaceship models...

He gradually found a pattern.

"One gift for every year?"

He couldn't help but ask as he was taking apart 7.

"Hehe, yes!"

With a look of joy on her face, Hu Li leaned over her boyfriend, kissed him behind the ear, and said with a smile:

"I want to give our baby Lu Yao all the gifts he needs from the age of 1 to 19."

"..."

Lu Yao's mouth twitched.

There was no emotion in my heart, but I said speechlessly:

"Are you plagiarizing my ideas? Isn't this what I said when we first got together, when I asked you about your birthday and you asked me what gift I gave you?"

"Uh..."

Sister Yu was a little embarrassed.

And Lu Yao rolled his eyes even more:

"This is too much! You have taken away my creativity. What should I do for your birthday?"

"...Didn't you say you would give me a macho experience coupon?"

"Do you still need an experience coupon? Every time you wanted to see a macho man, didn't I show it to you?"

Looking at the wad of new banknotes in the number 7, he couldn't help but ask:

"Also, why is the gift for 7-year-olds money?"

"Because you are in elementary school. Don't you know how to spend money when you are in elementary school? Why don't you care about your snacks for a semester with these ten thousand yuan?"

"..."

Lu Yaoxin said that you are really thoughtful.

Then I picked up the number 14 and opened it and found it was a NIKE shoe box.

"This is..."

"Sneakers. Didn't you say you didn't really start playing basketball until you were 14 years old..."

"...Awesome."

Lu Yao nodded sincerely.

Creative plagiarism aside, these gifts for my girlfriend really put a lot of thought into them.

But...

"What is this?"

Opening the box of the 16-year-old, he looked at the USB flash drive inside and asked curiously.

"...pornographic film."

"????"

Looking at her boyfriend's ridiculous behavior, Sister Yu, whose face turned slightly red, grabbed the USB flash drive and took it back:

"Sixteen years old... Isn't it mature? This... this is enlightenment."

"...?"

Lu Yao was dumbfounded, looking at Sister Yu whose face was getting redder and redder, nodded subconsciously, and gave a sincere comment:

"It has to be you, Hu Li."

This gift is truly unprecedented.

Then, he stretched out his hand:

"Give me my gift back. I'll take a look at it secretly for a while. Then you suddenly appear and catch the current situation. Then you have to sit next to me and gently tell me that I have indeed reached the age to be curious about these things, and then start Teach me..."

"Bah! I...I don't want it!"

She blushed so hard she could boil an egg.

But Lu Yao was extremely persistent:

"I don't care, this is my birthday gift! ...What type?"

"Go to hell!"

Sister Yu, who was already red and warm, threw the USB disk directly into her boyfriend's arms, quickly got up, and ran out of the practice room as if she was running for her life.

"...hehe."

Looking at her leaving figure, Lu Yao burst into laughter of various unknown meanings.

Then proceed to open the presents.

Soon, all nineteen gifts were opened.

A touch of emotion flashed in his eyes.

Although he plagiarized his own ideas...but he really felt his girlfriend's intentions from these gifts.

Just like what she said:

"I will definitely give you a surprise!"

This is such a surprise...

Holding the USB flash drive in hand, it is the most satisfying gift.

So, here comes the problem.

He rubbed his chin subconsciously.

Who did this sister ask for the website address? What kind of flavor is this video...?

No, I have to take a look.

So...

In less than 2 minutes, a woman’s roar came from the house:

"Lu! Who is such a good person who watches pornographic movies while eating! Shut it down!!!!"

Look, women are so fickle.

The gift was given by her, but it turned out that she couldn't even take a look at it.

What a needle in the sea, this woman’s heart...

……

"Sister...can we blow out this candle? It will smoke my eyes."

Under the dim candlelight, Lu Yao rubbed his eyes and asked his girlfriend opposite.

Hu Li rolled his eyes:

"It was you who refused to light the red candle."

"Don't you think it's scary to light red candles?"

"What's even more frightening is the white candle."

"...Isn't this just a white candle? It's just a little thicker."

"Shit, this is a scented candle. Beige."

"...But it's spicy, and the fragrance is too strong. The food smells like scented candles."

"Oh, you have to make do with it. Candlelight dinner, what's the point of lighting a light bulb?" "...Okay."

At this moment, Lu Yao, who was wearing a platinum bracelet, nodded helplessly, took a chopstick of shredded potatoes, mixed with the strong floral fragrance of lavender, and ate it in his mouth.

"Don't tell me, the bracelet Xiaochu gave me is quite nice and suits you."

Lu Yaoxin thought that something worth 180,000 yuan would not be suitable.

That's right, the bracelet Xu Ruochu sent is this year's new men's bracelet from Van Cleef & Arpels. It is made of platinum and inspired by the Ouroboros. The snake's head is inlaid with two emeralds and some small diamonds. kind.

It does look good when worn.

It's just very expensive.

The two of them just went to see Van Cleef & Arpels two days ago, but Lu Yao didn't wear it at the time and was not interested at all.

But he remembered the price, 180,000.

Glancing at the bracelet shining in the candlelight, he shook his head:

"Just wear it for freshness. You won't be able to wear it when you go to school."

"Wear it, it looks so good."

Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)

"No, I don't think it will be easy to wear something worth hundreds of thousands on my wrist."

After hearing this, Hu Li shrugged indifferently and continued:

"You are still young. A man's charm depends on these details. You will understand it later."

"I must be young, otherwise I will have a big sister to guide me soon?"

"..."

Sister Yu blushed.

Subconsciously tightening my toes:

"One...does it have to be like this? Can't we just be normal."

"It's nothing normal. You can even give pornographic films as gifts, why are you so shy now? Sister, I don't understand anything. There are some things...you have to teach me."

"..."

Seems like an illusion.

Hu Li's face looked even redder under the candlelight.

But...she no longer refused.

Even some expectations.

After all, she has never tried these... roles her boyfriend mentioned.

Um.

You can try it.

As Lu Yao looked at his girlfriend's shy look, the food in his mouth gradually lost its taste.

The focus is no longer here.

……

On his 19th birthday, Lu Yao spent an extremely unforgettable night.

It's the kind of thing that's serious and unforgettable, and can't be fake at all.

Sure enough... I like the gentle big sister the most!

After her birthday, Hu Li left and headed directly to London.

Expect to stay for about a week.

There is no woman in Lu Yao's heart, so he draws his sword to nature.

In the past few days, I have gradually entered a working state.

Once a person enters a working state, time passes quickly. In a blink of an eye, another week is over.

Early on Friday morning, Lu Yao arrived at the school gate early after having breakfast.

After waiting for about three to five minutes, he saw Shen Wan holding a bag in her hand from a distance.

The weather was so good today that he felt that the white sneakers on the girl's feet were particularly shiny.

"Hehe~"

When she saw Lu Yao, the corners of the girl's mouth couldn't stop rising.

But after all, it was in front of the school, so she didn't want to show off, so she just walked to Lu Yao's side with very cheerful steps:

"Brother Lu, here you go, coffee."

"Yeah."

Lu Yao took it and looked her up and down.

On top is a short brown down jacket that looks furry. Below is a pair of black skinny jeans.

The dividing line between the down jacket and jeans happened to be her manageable waist, which made her look slightly enchanting. Under her long and slender legs, the pair of white sneakers looked clean and prominent.

How to say...

It really feels like a student.

And he's still a dancer.

So, he smiled and said:

"Do you want to win a school beauty?"

"Hehe, no. Just... wear whatever you want."

Regardless of whether this is true or not, it is true that these clothes show off her figure and appearance.

The girl said, looking curiously into the school:

"Shall we go?"

"Okay, have you had breakfast?"

"Coffee for breakfast."

"That won't work...I'll take you to the cafeteria first."

Lu Yao said, taking her towards the school.

The guard just glanced at it and stopped paying attention.

Shen Wan also truly entered the gates of a domestic higher education institution for the first time.

"How was your test score?"

Hearing Lu Yao's words, the girl smiled again:

"The teacher said I am quite talented... As long as I work hard, I will have no problem getting into adult education."

Lu Yao nodded slightly:

"Well, that's fine. When will you sign up?"

"April to June, you can sign up next month."

"Do you want me to give you some tutoring?"

The girl is smiling:

"Yes, you'd better give me tutoring every day, hehe~"

"Are you greedy enough? Go and find out what the price of tutoring for the top student in the country is?"

"I can pay with my body."

"..."

Lu Yao's mouth twitched and he glanced at her speechlessly.

Xin said that in the sacred academy, your mind is full of pornographic thoughts.

The girl didn't say much, she just followed him and looked around.

College... was too foreign to her. What's more, Fuhua is a well-known school in the country...

It was too far away for her before.

But now she was walking inside, and it was impossible to say that her mood was not subtle.

"Brother Lu."

"Huh?"

"Don't laugh at me when I tell you how I feel."

"Say it."

"...I feel like walking here, as if the air is filled with the sound of reading loudly. It feels very strange."

"That's a bit exaggerated. Junior high school and high school are almost the same. The teaching atmosphere in Fuhua is actually quite relaxed... Of course, I don't know what the adult education is like, but it won't be too onerous. Besides, I just came here, where are I? Where? ”

"The feeling is completely different..."

The girl rarely obeyed Lu Yao, but gave her objection.

She felt really different.

I even have an inexplicable respect for the so-called "university".

And occasionally when she sees classmates passing by, she will wonder... what positions these people will hold in the future, and what kind of light and heat they will exert.

At this moment, her mentality was close to that of a pilgrim. Although there were some slight differences, she did feel a sense of awe in her heart.

If it is true.

Especially when we come to the restaurant.

In fact, according to the seniors, Danyuan Restaurant on the old campus in Handan is considered the smallest.

But Shen Wan's concept of "university cafeteria" is also very simple. It is the dilapidated factory building in her technical high school and the big pots of food inside.

When she first entered Danyuan Restaurant, she was completely dazzled by the snacks from all over the world.

"...Brother Lu, do you still have Western breakfast?"

Lu Yao glanced at the direction she was looking at and shrugged:

"After all, there are international students. Do you want to eat? It tastes okay. But I think that Shanxi Province's shaved noodles taste better."

"Then let's eat noodles. I haven't eaten in a long time."

So, Lu Yao nodded and walked over with her.

The shock to Shen Wan... came from the price.

She stared blankly at the prices at this shaved noodle stall.

Beef noodles...5 yuan?

2 pieces of chicken legs?

Is this...a small county town?

Am I going home?

Isn't this the magic city?

She was a little speechless, but when she saw Lu Yao coming over to get a bowl of beef, although it was not full, it was still too exaggerated, she couldn't help but ask:

“This bowl of noodles is only 5 yuan?”

"Yeah."

Lu Yao nodded and took her to an empty seat to sit down.

He smiled and said:

"That's what reading is about, isn't it?"

"..."

Shen Wan was speechless.

Taking the chopsticks handed over by Lu Yao, just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, after taking a taste...

Faced with Lu Yao's question "How is it, does it taste authentic?", he nodded subconsciously.

There is plenty of meat, the soup is delicious, and the portion of noodles is even more impressive.

And most importantly...it's just a five-piece bowl of shaved noodles.

In her hometown, you may not be able to eat noodles with so much meat for only five yuan. Not to mention the smell...

It really is the taste of hometown.

She subconsciously looked around again.

Although it was past meal time, there were still many people in the cafeteria.

Many "young faces" are filled with confidence and pride.

This is Fuhua.

One of the top universities in the country.

They should be proud.

Even though this kind of pride would make her, a technical secondary school student who had never attended high school, feel extremely inferior.

But...

Just like Brother Lu said.

She compared it with her former technical secondary school, and then looked at the dazzling Danyuan Restaurant in front of her.

As well as the two towering Guanghua Buildings next to the restaurant that I just saw, as well as the tip of the iceberg of other college scenery that I haven’t had time to appreciate...

At this moment, the meaning of reading was completely realized.
