Dear Chen Jiu

Chapter 43

When my uncle called and said we would have dinner next week, I realized that my birthday was coming up again.

I checked my phone, and sure enough, I missed a remittance notice from my mother.

My uncle and I were the only two people in the private room for this meal, and it was quite formal, and we chatted a little bit during the meal.

Since he came to work in Jiangzhou a few years ago, we obviously haven't been close since we were young.

In the middle of the meal, my uncle took out a key and told me that there was a two-bedroom house near the school and told me to move in.

"No, my friend and I live pretty well now."

What a joke, if Chen Jiu finds out about this, wouldn't it just be a reason to drive me away.

"Why," my uncle teased me after taking a sip of tea, "are you in love?"

"No, no, how come, we are friends."

I touched my nose.

"Okay, if you need to call Uncle Shen anytime later."

On the way home by taxi, I received a text message from Lao Xiao, saying that Christmas was coming to us for a get-together, which was actually a disguised form to celebrate my birthday.

He was really suffocated in Qingjiang before, because my parents didn't celebrate my birthday, so he didn't dare to mention it.

In fact, I don't care about it, just eat a bowl of noodles and follow a formality.

But you can take this opportunity to ask Chen Jiu for a gift.

I was still thinking about it when we ate together at night.

Lao Xiao sent a message in the group under my hint during the day.

--Let's celebrate Christmas together next week, it happens to be Xiao Gu's birthday.

While picking up the rice in the bowl, I observed Chen Jiu's reaction when he saw this message, and looked at the phone pretendingly, "Oh, really, my birthday is coming soon."

As I said that, I put a chicken leg in Chen Jiu's bowl.

Chen Jiu raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw my dog-legged appearance, "So?"

I looked at him and said cheekily, "I want a birthday present."

"what?"

"I said... I want to ask you for a birthday present."

I simply risked it all.

Chen Jiu held the chopsticks and glanced at me calmly, as if speechless.

Oh shit, isn't he asking what I want?I really can't figure it out for a while, "Let me think about it, and I'll tell you when I think about it."

This thought reminded me of Lao Xiao bringing Lu Yuan to look for us near the university town on Christmas Eve.

"Don't worry about it, I've made all the arrangements for the evening, and I'll make sure you're satisfied."

Lao Xiao promised me on the other end of the phone.

"Only the four of us can play well?" I was dubious.

Facts have proved that the four of them really can't play tricks.

Lao Xiao booked a small box in a restaurant, and the dishes on the table were very rich, but all he had to do for one night was to watch him be a model boyfriend, serving tea, pouring water, peeling shrimp, and threading in all kinds of courteous ways... It was almost unbearable.

Chen Jiu and I sat on the sidelines and ate in a calm manner. Every time I served a dish, I asked him, "How does this dish taste? How does my cooking compare to this one?"

I have lived with Chen Jiu for almost a semester, and I haven't figured out his dietary preferences.

But I recently discovered that his taste may be on the sweet side. The specific manifestation is that once I served the sweet and sour pork in the middle of the table, he added two more pieces.

When Chen Jiu and I finished eating, Lao Xiao was still picking coriander from the bowl for Lu Yuan...

I don't know what other activities he has arranged next, but if this guy continues to show affection without a bottom line, I might go berserk.

"So, this is the fun activity you said?" When the four of us took a taxi to the interesting place that Lao Xiao said, I couldn't help asking...

This is a ktv near the university town. There are many luxury cars parked in front of it. It seems that it is still a high-end membership system.

"Lu Yuan, sometimes you have to take care of Lao Xiao."

I say.

Lu Yuan smiled and said nothing.

"Gu Zong, it's really pure singing.

Come on, let's get high together. "

Old Xiao said.

"You have to be prepared, Lao Xiao is a wheat bully."

I saw Chen Jiu walking slowly behind, so I moved closer to him and walked slowly forward together.

As soon as Lao Xiao came in, he ordered dozens of songs, and even ordered a few for Lu Yuan, and then skipped me and asked Chen Jiu what he was going to sing.

Lu Yuan asked why the birthday star was not arranged to sing a song.

Old Xiao: "Please don't, with his voice, don't expect us to get out of this box alive today, it will really kill us."

I've never heard Chen Jiu sing, and I'm looking forward to it, but when he was about to choose a song, he answered a phone call and left.

I could only lean on the sofa dispiritedly and watch Lao Xiao sit in front of the screen and sing a ballad.

"Hey, I heard that you are living together now?" Lu Yuan asked after taking a sip of his drink.

"It's really just living together, like roommates."

I held my chin and looked at the back of Lao Xiao in front of me. This man sang almost three songs in one breath, and Chen Jiu hadn't come back yet.

"In fact, there has been progress."

Lu Yuan said.

"Hey, you two over there, why don't you applaud my performance."

After the song was over, Lao Xiao turned his head and shouted at us heartlessly.

We quickly clapped up.

"Thank you, thank you my fans ~ I will continue to play a song for you..."

"Don't talk about us, talk about you and Lao Xiao," I poured myself some wine, "I just watched you two show your affection during the meal.

But Lao Xiao has a sense of responsibility, which is really good. I hope you two will always be well. "

I touched Lu Yuan with the wine glass, "You drink, or Lao Xiao will kill me."

"Xiao Gu, I heard what you said about me."

Old Xiao held a microphone behind his back and spoke to us, accompanied by background music, "Oh, yes, I almost forgot, the birthday present I prepared for you is in my bag, take it yourself."

It was quite mysterious, I took the schoolbag and weighed it, it was quite heavy.

No need to guess, it must be shoes.

"I have a gift for you too."

Lu Yuan also took a small box from his schoolbag and handed it to me.

"You two can get one."

I joked.

"That's not okay, brother, what's the matter if you still need a gift from you, it can only be more or less!" Lao Xiao continued to sing after finishing speaking.

Dare to love this person can really hear us talking.

Speaking of presents, I didn't care about Chen Jiu begging for my birthday present. How did this person answer the phone and get here now.

I have to go out and see.

******

"Damn, it's exciting. I just squatted in the pit and thought these two were going to fight. The good guy was caught off guard with this punch, and the shit was held back by me."

"Isn't that two men?"

"Oh, what's so strange about this? A drunk man can't hold back when he meets a handsome guy. Who knows that handsome guy is a master of martial arts."

"But to be honest, that guy is really handsome."

……

As soon as I entered the corridor, I heard two men talking while walking. The more I heard, the more something was wrong, so I hurried to the bathroom.

Hastily pushed open the bathroom door, and saw Chen Jiu washing his hands by the sink.

"You... just finished using the toilet?" I ran all the way over, panting and coughing.

"..."

"Uh, no, you haven't been back for so long, I don't feel relieved to come out and have a look."

The light in this toilet is too dim, just by looking at Chen Jiu's expression, you can't tell what happened just now, and Chen Jiu still has that indifferent look.

"Are you okay? Didn't you meet any strange people just now?"

"No, what?" He glanced at me.

"It's nothing, it's fine, I thought... By the way, Lao Xiao and the others just gave me a present."

I digress.

He walked around me and took out a piece of paper to wipe his hands, and asked casually, "What do you want?"

I didn't come to the toilet to ask for a gift, "I haven't figured it out yet, why don't I wait until tomorrow--"

"I'm going abroad tomorrow."

He interrupted me.

"Then I want to—" In fact, this gift has been lingering in my mind for a long time, but I just didn't think of bringing it up here.

The door behind me was suddenly pushed open at this moment, and several people rushed in to go to the toilet. I dragged Chen Jiu to the safe passage next to me, and it was pitch black inside.

When the door was about to close, I accurately found his lips with the light from the outside, and then directly pressed my lips to them.

The moment I breathed intertwined, I smelled the faint smell of tobacco between Chen Jiu's lips and teeth, mixed with the coolness of mint...

I tried to stick my tongue in too, not wanting to just kiss like last time.

But I hit my teeth with too much force, so I had to step back a little, stick close to him and say, "I want this."

As soon as the words fell, the back of my head was firmly fixed by a pair of hands. Before I had time to react, Chen Jiu's tongue easily pried open my teeth, and drove straight in.

I could only chase his lips instinctively, I closed my eyes and sucked greedily.

Chen Jiu's breath was filled with the pleasant smell of Chen Jiu's body, mixed with the sweetness of the orange-flavored fruit hard candy that he ate in the private room.

Our tongues are entangled, and my brain is running out of oxygen...

I hugged his back tightly greedily and unsatisfied, wanting to extend the kiss further.

I began to hate myself for not being able to learn some kissing skills, and now I can't even kiss, which is really shameful.

But it didn't work out, Chen Jiu pulled my collar and separated us easily, the strength was not heavy, but it woke me up from my intoxication.

With lips parted, I heard Chen Jiu casually say, "Happy birthday."
