Why are the stars indifferent

Chapter 71

Zhan Le's birthday must be spent with Xie Lin.After all, it was the first birthday after the reunion of the two brothers and sisters, so it had to be more serious.

Before, Zhan Le wanted to live in a two-person world with Cheng, and wanted to choose a day to come out to celebrate his birthday, but after thinking about it, it was not necessary, Cheng was very busy, and those who wanted to invite over did not know the relationship between the two of them. , there is no need to do this in a flashy way.

But there is a saying, the lies you tell will come back to you sooner or later, the cycle of cause and effect, what should come will always come.

Cheng Zai looked at the list of business trips sent to the group, the first in the second row was his name, and he felt like he didn't know what to say.

Let you lie, let you say that you are on a business trip.

Really gotta go.

The time to go was quite coincidental. Zhan Le went two days before his birthday and came back the day after. He completely missed his birthday, but he just happened to be able to attend his parent meeting.

Cheng Zai took the pen and twirled it around, and the tip of the pen lightly slid across the paper, leaving a slanted line on the love letter he just wrote. He sighed, tore off the paper and crumpled it into a ball. After losing it, I quit WeChat after thinking about it, and called Zhan Le.

The phone rang twice before it was connected. Zhan Le's voice was weak, and Cheng Zai could still hear the sound of flipping the pages of a book: "Hello?"

"What about homework?" Cheng Zai asked.

"Hmm..." Zhan Le lay on the table, "What's wrong?"

"Let me tell you something," Cheng Zai sighed softly, "I may not be able to go for your birthday. In those few days... I have to go on business."

"Huh? On a business trip again?" Zhan Le's voice became more energetic, "Oh no, are you pretending to be on a business trip and plan to surprise me or something? Let me tell you that this set is a bit vulgar."

"It's really a business trip," Cheng Zai smiled helplessly, "this time it's real."

"...Ah," Zhan Le paused for a while, feeling a little helpless, "When will you retire..."

"I'm sorry, I'll make it up for you when I come back," Cheng Zai tapped on the paper with a pen in his hand, and lowered his voice, "You can do whatever you want then, okay?"

"It's okay, you can go," Zhan Le took the phone away, and Lin Xiangxiao, who came to do homework together, glanced at him meaningfully, and he rolled his eyes, "I'll go when I get back." I'll pick you up."

"Okay." Cheng Zai nodded.

Zhan Le said it was quite indifferent, but Cheng Zai could still hear a bit of regret in his tone, maybe it was a pity that his birthday boyfriend was not here...

Gee.

Cheng Zai frowned, and couldn't write any more love letters. He went back to the bedroom and packed up all the clothes and things he needed to bring for those few days, then sat on the bed and stared blankly for a while.

After sitting for a while, he took out his phone and made a call: "Hello..."

Zhan Le's birthday was a sunny day.

It was rare for Xie Rin to put on some makeup. He stopped wearing black clothes and put on a white loose short sleeve. He was wearing denim shorts, his hair was tied up high, and he was clean and fresh.

The two of them just opened the door and walked out, before they stayed for half a second, they turned their heads and walked back in a tacit understanding.

"This temperature," Xie Lin said seriously, "I melted within a second of going out."

But the house is not spacious enough, and the band members also set up a bar to celebrate Xie Rin's finding his brother. They struggled at the door for a while, and finally went out.

The members in the band are almost all rich second generations. The main reason for living in the apartment is to facilitate communication. I heard from the drummer that their goal is to debut as a full member of the band. Qu Ran has even been discovered by scouts.

"Really?" Zhan Le heard the news as soon as he arrived at the bar, and leaned over to Qu Ran and poked him, "Are you going to debut?"

"That person just said that I can sing well, and asked me if I want to be a trainee," Qu Ran waved his hand, "I'll make my debut."

"Then are you going?" Lin Xiangxiao also came over.

"Go... let's go, I'm discussing with my family," Qu Ran narrowed her eyes, "Don't tell Chang Ze about this."

"Okay, don't tell him," Zhan Le smiled, "Tell him that the next day the whole school will know that your album sales have exceeded [-] million."

Qu Ran felt helpless.

The people from the band borrowed the small kitchen of the bar to make the meal. They knew the owner of the bar and made a fuss inside. Zhan Le also laughed with them, and was coaxed to sing two songs on stage.

Xie Lin said that the people in the band were very nice to her. It was true. Xu Tong and the others cooked a dish by themselves. When they finally gave gifts, the drummer also gave a pennant, which read: Lead singer Xie Lin, found Dear brother, both civil and military, good luck, happy birthday--all members of the band, a gift.

The cake was made by Zhan Le. She made fondant for a small guitar and gave it to Xie Rin. Xie Rin made a bracelet with a guitar pick. There are two bracelets, one black and one white. They are clearly for couples at a glance. .

"Should I still be a bass?" Zhan Le accepted the bracelet, and quietly raised an eyebrow in Xu Tong's direction, "Couple cake."

"No need," Xie Lin bit the fork and whispered, "fondant is really greasy, is Cheng Zai that greasy too?"

Zhan Le raised his hand and flicked on her forehead.

The group of people together with Lin Xiangxiao and Ji Changyun had a great time, and Zhan Le was also very happy, but he always felt that something was missing in his heart.I had a lot of fun when I was making trouble, but when I stopped for a little bit, I felt uneasy.

Zhan Le took advantage of the excuse to go to the toilet and ran to the toilet, locked the door and quietly called Cheng Zai, but Cheng Zai didn't answer.

He looked at the time, it was past eight o'clock in the evening, Cheng Zai might still be busy with work...?

"Tsk." Zhan Le clicked on Cheng Zai's message bar, and sent a question mark.It's a big birthday, so forget it if you don't have time, why don't you even post a happy birthday.

How happy Cheng was when he told him he was going on a business trip that he deserved it.

Zhan Le could only pat his chest and tell himself to be mature and calm. He is already a 19-year-old youth, so he can't be self-willed.

But they were all in pairs outside, Xu Tong and Xie Lin, Lin Xiangxiao and Ji Changyun, it really hurts the eyes to look at them.

He stayed in the toilet for a while before opening the door to go out, washed his hands and patted his face before going back, and continued to make trouble with everyone.

A group of people went back after eleven o'clock. Ji Changyun was in charge of sending Xie Lin and Zhan Le home. The two brothers and sisters got out of the car and entered the community. There was no wind even late at night in the sweltering summer, and Zhan Le's face and back were covered with It was sweat, he took out his phone and looked at it, it was 29:[-], and there was still no news from Cheng Zai.

...Is it a case of a missing boyfriend on his birthday?

Zhan Le put the phone away, turned around and Xie Rin was looking at him: "What's wrong?"

"I've been depressed all night." Xie Rin raised his face and smiled, "Cheng Zai didn't come."

"Drink too much, you," Zhan Le pushed her lightly, "You are so silly."

Xie Lin chuckled twice: "I didn't drink too much, my mind is clear."

The most is that the body is a little out of control, walking a little wobbly, no big problem.

Zhan Le looked at her, and couldn't help curling the corners of his mouth.

"Happy birthday, brother," Xie Lin reached out and hooked his shoulder, pointing forward, "Don't be depressed."

"Huh?" Zhan Le glanced in the direction she pointed, and there was a familiar figure standing downstairs, the orange streetlights scattered on him, and he just raised his head to look this way, "...Cheng exist?"

"Well," Xie Lin said with a smile, "shall I keep the door open for you tonight?"

Before he could answer, Cheng Zai had already walked towards them.

Xie Rin let go of Zhan Le's shoulders, and waved his hands: "Good evening."

"Good evening, happy birthday," Cheng Zai and Xie Lin smiled, and handed her a beautiful little box, "I took your brother away."

"Okay," Xie Lin took the box and said thank you, "You don't need to bring it back."

"Hey!" Zhan Le shouted, and didn't know what to say next.

Who said that this kind of sudden appearance was vulgar, his heart had already started running wildly on the highway when Cheng Zai suddenly appeared.

"Didn't you say you'll be back tomorrow?" Zhan Le was a little dazed when Cheng Zai hooked his neck and walked out, "Are you lying to me again?"

"I lied to you once. What do you mean again?" Cheng Zai hooked his neck and walked out quickly, "The study will end this afternoon. I said hello to the director and came back early at my own expense. The bar is looking for you, you have already left, I will go directly to your downstairs and wait for you."

Zhan Le was staggered by him, so he could only turn around and trot out at his speed: "How dare you mention that one time?"

"Ah," Cheng Zai looked down at him, then suddenly stopped, pressed the back of his head to make him lower his head slightly, and kissed the top of his hair, "Sorry to mention, let's go quickly."

"Why go?" Zhan Le said.

Cheng Zai finally brought Zhan Le to the side of the car. When he came back just now, Zhan Le was absent-minded. He didn't see Cheng Zai's car and parked on the side of the road. Thinking about it carefully, the smile on Xie Lin's face really started when he got off the car... ... Tsk.

"Birthday," Cheng Zai said, "I'll take you to set off the fireworks."

"Firing is prohibited in urban areas..."

"Yes," Cheng Zai nodded, and said seriously, "So I'll take you to the suburbs, there are still 29 minutes until twelve o'clock, hurry up."

Zhan Le sat in the co-pilot, looked up at Cheng Zai, and sighed: "You don't have to rush this day."

"You don't have to pretend it's okay." Cheng Zai started the car, and the speed was fast, but at least he didn't exceed the speed limit. "I said that you will show your face if you have any problems."

Zhan Le turned his head and glanced at his expression through the car window.

"It's okay to act like a baby with me," Cheng Zai said, "Zhan Le...you may be the only person in this world who doesn't annoy me when you do anything."

It only took 25 minutes for the car to drive from the urban area to the suburbs, and it took 2 minutes to move the fireworks in the back seat and put them on the open space, unpack them, and pull out the leads. I was in a hurry to prepare these, and I didn't even bring a lighter.

Holding back a smile, Zhan Le took out the lighter that had just lit the candle, and patted Cheng Zai on the shoulder: "Hey, what would you do if I didn't have a lighter by hand?"

"I'll make another grand one next year." Cheng Zai smiled, "It's okay, it's not shameful to be ashamed in front of you."

Zhan Le was still smiling, watching the small flames jump out to ignite the fuse, Cheng Zai took his hand and took a step back, the fireworks exploded into the sky and lit up in the dark night.

The time was exactly 59:1, Cheng Zai turned his head and kissed Zhan Le's ear, and told him in the last minute of his birthday, happy birthday, I will never let you miss anything you want in the future.
