Before the meal, Ning Suyi asked the driver to go back first, and she took Jing Chi's car home.The two sat in the back seat and chatted in a low voice.It rained for a long time, and at this time, the sun broke through the clouds unusually.The sky is not dark, and the window glass slips in an orange sunset, which is clearly visible on the fluff on the face, and any photo taken is the texture of an oil painting.Jing Chi thought that before arriving home, the atmosphere would be as quiet and beautiful as in the small private room of a private restaurant, until Ning Suyi mentioned Mu Jingting, and all his hidden joy was swept away."
Brother Jing Ting's birthday is a few days, what kind of gift do you say?"
Ning Suyi supported her cheeks with her right hand, tilted her head to look at Jing Chi, she was full of a kind of casual and coquettish, and it was the kind of inadvertently revealed, which was very moving.Jing Chi frowned imperceptibly, and snorted in his nose: "Whatever you want." ”Ning Suyi smiled and asked, "What do you send, I'll refer to it." ”"Send it as you like.""......"
Ning Suyi squinted his eyes, looked at the little kid in front of him who seemed to be making trouble, and asked in a low voice: "Did you have a conflict with Brother Jing Ting before I returned to China?"
It feels like you've been unkind to see him lately.I remember that you two used to have a very good relationship and often played basketball together. ”"There is no conflict."
Jing Chi lowered the window, put his arm on the window edge, the dial of the watch reflected a circle of silver light, let the hot wind blow in, the sound was instantly swept into the wind, blurred a little, "It's not young, it doesn't matter if it's a gift or not." ”"According to what you say, I won't give gifts on your birthday next year, so I won't have to rack my brains."
Ning Suyi blinked and joked."
You dare."
Jing Chi turned his head and glared at her, "When I was a child, I said that you can't miss my birthday gift for a year, and you have to send it to my death."
If I die before you, you will have to burn me your gift on the 22nd of April. ”“…… You shut up, and the more you talk, the more out of tune you get. ”Ning Suyi almost wanted to cover his mouth and let him say less unlucky words.Fortunately, it was in front of her, if he was in the Jing family, as soon as his voice fell, the stick in the old lady's hand had to be beckoned to his lap to make him remember it for a long time.Ning Suyi picked up the topic of Huan Yuan: "Seriously, it's only a few days before Brother Jing Ting's birthday, and I haven't prepared anything."
In the past, even if I was abroad, I was in Ningcheng, and it was impossible not to give a gift. ”After all, in the years when she was abroad, every year on her birthday, Mu Jingting sent a gift before her birthday, sometimes just in time for her birthday, but it was never postponed.Jing Chi listened to it in his ears, tasted it very much, and laughed: "I see that you gave him a tie again, a suit, and a pair of shoes, and he is all equipped to live." ”Ning Suyi raised his eyebrows and seriously thought about his proposal.Jing Chi looked sideways, and saw her contemplative, and immediately deflated: "Forget it, when I didn't say it." ”Ning Su smiled and said, "Don't, I think your proposal is good." ”At this moment, Jing Chi hated his self-defeating ability.
——On the eve of his birthday, Mu Jingting informed in the friend group: Tomorrow is Friday, if everyone is not busy, they will go to the venue opened by his friend to get together, and they should have a good time, and they don't need to bring gifts.Worried that someone wouldn't read the group messages, he sent a private message to an important friend alone, and Ning Suyi was naturally included.On Friday afternoon, Ning Suyi finished the business at hand and arrived home an hour and a half early.When she left the house in the morning, she asked Aunt Jane to help buy some ingredients for baking cakes.When she got home, she changed into her home clothes and went into the kitchen, intending to make a cake and bring it with her own hands in the evening.Aunt Zhen originally wanted to give her a hand, but she lingered by the island for a while, and found that she was useless, so she gave up the kitchen and handed it over to Ning Suyi to toss.Eggs, milk powder, cake flour, powdered sugar......
A variety of ingredients were placed on the cooking table, and Ning Suyi methodically mixed these scattered ingredients, put them into molds, and sent them to the oven.Aunt Zhen smelled the fragrance and came in to take a look: "I didn't even know that Crispy would bake cakes." ”"I'm also half-baked and have tried it a few times abroad."
Ning Suyi said with a smile, suddenly hearing the ringing of the mobile phone, and hurriedly reached under the faucet to rinse off the flour stained by his fingers.Aunt Zhen said, "Don't worry, I'll help you get it." ”Ning Suyi's mobile phone was on the coffee table in the living room, Aunt Zhen picked it up, squinted at it, walked quickly to the kitchen and handed it to her, and said with a smile: "Xiao Chi called." ”Ning Suyi pinched his apron and wiped the water droplets on his hands, took it and pressed it to answer.The people over there asked her if she was off work and was going to pick her up to go to Mu Jingting's birthday party."
I came back from work early and am now at home."
Ning Suyi said softly.Jing Chi paused for a few seconds and said, "Then I'll go look for you?"
”Ning Suyi said hello, hung up the phone, handed the phone to Aunt Zhen, turned her head to look at the oven, and before the time came, she washed her hands again and began to whip the cream.Jing Chi was at home with the old lady in the afternoon, and it only took 20 minutes to drive from Yongcui Le Mansion.The doorbell rang, and Aunt Zhen answered the door and took the slippers herself."
Crispy upstairs?"
Jing Chi propped up the closet in the hallway, kicked off his boots, put on the dark gray checked slippers that belonged to him, and looked inside.You can smell the smell of milk in the air, and it smells like toast and sweets."
No, I've been busy baking cakes in the kitchen for a long time."
Aunt Zhen went to make tea and let him take care of himself.Jing Chizhuan pulled his slippers and walked towards the kitchen, stopped by the door, and glanced up.In the evening, the sky was still bright, and the lights were still on in the kitchen, and the bright white light was sprinkled from the top of his head, casting a section on Ning Suyi.She pulled a very casual ball, loose, a little hair hanging down on her porcelain-white neck, dyed with light gold fur in the light.She wore a homely milk tea-colored vest skirt, ankle-length, cotton and linen texture, which was exceptionally soft and comfortable without touching it, and covered with a light brown apron.Without makeup, he had a plain face, and the pale mole on the apple muscle fell into his eyes.That mole, which is difficult for her to notice if she usually wears makeup and doesn't look closely, is like a hook at the moment, scratching his heart.The well is late and the Adam's apple rolls, don't look away.Aunt Zhen approached, said that the tea was ready, and asked him if he would drink it.Jing Chi said not to drink.Ning Suyi only realized that Jing was late at this time, and turned his head and smiled at him: "When did you come?"
”"Just arrived."
Jing Chi approached, saw a touch of white flour on her forehead, raised her hand to wipe it off for her, her movements could not be gentle, but her eyes were lonely that never changed, "When did you learn to bake cakes?"
”"During the study abroad period.Didn't I tell you?
”Ning Suyi rubbed his forearm against the place he had touched, holding the electric mixer, and the buzzing sound was between the two.Jing Chi didn't pay attention and said something in his heart: "You haven't baked a cake for me." ”There was a little grievance hidden in the words, and there were accusations.Ning Suyi smiled without raising his head and said, "It's not easy, if you like to eat, I'll bake one for you on your birthday next year."
What flavors do you like to eat?
”Jing didn't answer for a long time, what he wanted was not a cake, but a unique heart.Unique.Ning Suyi didn't have the energy to pay attention to him, because she hadn't baked a cake for too long, so she was afraid of messing it up, so she was careful every step and focused on it.Jing Chi stood quietly on the side, leaning against the edge of the table, his fingers touching the pocket of his pants, but he didn't feel the outline of the cigarette case.The cake embryo was baked, Ning Suyi bowed down and carefully demolded it, and the complete cake embryo was placed in the middle of the turntable, and she breathed a sigh of relief.There is only the part of smearing the cream, which is much simpler than the previous steps, Ning Suyi chatted with Jing Chi while smearing the cream.Jing Chi took a bottle of mineral water from the refrigerator, unscrewed it and took a sip, holding it in his hand: "How is the preparation of your charitable foundation." ”"The materials are all ready, and we will be able to register at the end of this month.""
You haven't forgotten me, have you?
I have booked the position of Deputy Secretary-General in advance. ”Ning Suyi looked at him, made an "OK" gesture, and said that the resume had been typed for him, and he didn't have to bother to write it himself, and he only had to pay out of his pocket when the time came.Jing Chi lowered his eyebrows, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he smiled helplessly: "Aren't all my wallets kept by you?"
”"Wow, when did that happen, I feel like you're mocking me when you say this now."
Ning Suyi finally smeared the cream, his waist was sore, he straightened up to take a breath, and stared straight at Jing Chi.Jing Chi looked at her, still smiling, not at all aggressive, innocent and harmless.That was the matter of elementary school, and Jing Chi's pocket money was handed over to Ning Suyi for safekeeping.Of course, this was instructed by the old lady, and she was worried that Jing Chi would buy junk food at school and eat bad stomach, and his small body would not be able to withstand a little toss at all.Therefore, when Jing Chi used the money, he had to apply to Ning Suyi.Ning Suyi's "sister" was full of shelves, clutching her pink purse, and threatened: "Call me sister, and I'll give you pocket money." ”Jing Chi was very aggrieved, but he was young and ignorant at that time, and he had no ability to resist, so he was taken advantage of by her.Later, he didn't want to think about the experience himself.And after Ning Suyi became sensible, he also felt that he was shameless at the beginning.Now that Jing Chi took the initiative to mention this matter, she had a strong feeling that he must be sarcastic about her.Jing Chi licked his lips and said in a calm tone: "I swear, I didn't mean that." ”Ning Suyi took out a box of washed strawberries from the refrigerator, picked out a large, bright red and plump one, and stuffed it into his mouth: "You'd better not have it." ”Jing Chi sighed "Hmm", holding strawberries in his mouth, and his mouth was full of sweet taste.The remaining strawberries are cut into slices and granules and garnished with cream.Finally, write a greeting in dark chocolate sauce and the birthday cake is complete.Ning Suyi crossed his hands on his hips, raised his sore neck, felt that his tendons were about to break, and shouted: "I will never make cakes again." ”Probably old, not as patient as before to tinker with these, halfway a few times want to pick a child, go to the cake shop to order a wouldn't be convenient and troublesome.Jing Chi untied the tie behind her apron for her, and whispered in her ear by the way: "What's the matter, my sister just said that she would make me a cake for my birthday next year, so it's not a word to talk so quickly?"
”Ning Suyi paused, turned his head to brush the ground, and looked at him like a torch: "You......
What did you just say?
”Jing Chi touched his nose, took a step back, still holding mineral water in his hand, and took a sip of disguise: "You heard it wrong, I didn't say anything." ”"You just called me sister?"
Ning Suyi's surprised look at this time was tantamount to hearing a thunderclap on the ground.After this little kid became an adult, she had never heard a willing "sister", and she didn't see him bow his head no matter how much she coerced and seduced, which can be described as iron-clad.The sun is coming out in the west today.Jing Chi strode out of the kitchen without looking back: "Wait for you in the living room, hurry up and change your clothes, and then rub me first, I won't wait for you." ”He walked in a hurry, almost colliding with Tai Shuying at the door, and hurriedly stood up, and said apologetically: "Auntie, I'm sorry." ”"It's okay, it's okay."
Tai Shuying smiled and shook her head, pointed to the sofa, and asked him to sit over there.Ning Suyi packed the cake, put it in the refrigerator, and went upstairs to change clothes and makeup.In the living room, Tai Shuying and Jing Chi sat together and chatted for a while, got up to clean up the mess left in the kitchen, and Aunt Zhen went over to help tidy up.Tai Shuying peeked at Jing Chi, who was sitting upright on the sofa in the living room, and sighed that time flies.The little boy seems to have grown into a man who stands tall in the blink of an eye, with wide shoulders and long legs, a cold temperament, a little hardness, and just right without arrogance or impatience.Tai Shuying grabbed Aunt Zhen's arm, covered her lips and whispered, "Actually, Xiao Chi is a good match for our crispy pastry." ”Aunt Zhen laughed, also suppressing her voice, in case anyone outside heard it: "I think so too."
The two children grew up together and knew the roots, if they could get married, it would be a godsend. ”------ digression------ cold knowledge: Although Crispy always wants Xiao Chi to call her sister, when Xiao Chi really calls, she is the most unbearable.Call your sister and promise him anything.* So later, when Xiao Chi knew this cold knowledge, he teased her from time to time.Sister, come and give me a kiss.Sister, don't provoke me.Sister, the eyeliner is crooked again, come here, I'll draw it for you.However, Crispy just wanted him to shut up and stop shouting!!
