Chapter 265 Birthday

"Classmate, are you sure these six couriers belong to you?"

"Ah."

".Need a cart?"

"Thank you."

Su Chengyi piled the six boxes on the cart and transported them back to the dormitory from the school station.

He had just read it. The largest and heaviest one was signed by Su Zelang, his dear old father.

It's best not to be something impractical.

Otherwise he would really pack it up and send it back.

Su Chengyi moved her things upstairs in two trips, only to realize that she didn't have the key with her, so she had to knock on the door.

It was Li Tao who opened the door.

"Hey! There are so many, why didn't you send a message asking me to come down and help you move it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he took the initiative to help move the big box in.

"Thank you."

Su Chengyi thanked him first, and then added:

"I'm not sure if you're in the dormitory or not."

This is a random reason.

If you directly say "no need" or "don't bother", it will appear very unapproachable and distant.

This is "The Art of Language" that squad leader Chu took advantage of the weekend to give him a make-up lesson.

"No way, what can happen on a weekend night? Remember to call me next time."

Li Tao clapped his hands and said with a smile.

"Okay, thank you."

Su Chengyi also raised his head and smiled politely.

It's not that he deliberately wanted to keep a distance, it's just that it was too difficult for him to get along with his roommates like those good friends in a short period of time.

"But what are you talking about? Do you buy so much at one time online?"

Although Li Tao was a little curious, he also had a sense of boundaries and did not poke his head to see the mailing information.

"No, they are all items sent by family members."

Su Chengyi paused, but still didn't say that today was his birthday.

We are not familiar with each other yet, so if you say this, people might misunderstand him and think he is asking for a gift.

Li Tao didn't ask further questions, nodded, turned around and sat down.

Su Chengyi looked around, and neither Matthew nor Shangguan Yu was there.

But his pile of express delivery boxes really takes up a lot of space, so he needs to dismantle them early and clean them up.

He first unpacked the big box at the bottom.

Sure enough, after opening the carton, the leather box and the shape of the banana fan were already obvious inside.

Su Chengyi sighed, took out the guitar and put it down against the desk.

Yamaha's folk guitar, I don't know what the purpose of giving this is.

His guitar playing is not very good, at most he is entry level.

The greeting card at the bottom of the box answered his question.

"Happy birthday, son!

Dad has been thinking about the gift for a long time and feels that an acoustic guitar, a top-notch flirting tool, is just what you need!

Believe me dad, no girl of any age can resist a man playing the guitar and singing "Southern Girl" to her.

As for other options, the piano is too pretentious, the erhu is too classical, and the common problem with flute, flute, and saxophone is that you have no words to speak when playing.

Just say that Dad is not considerate enough!
Come on, try to solve all major life events while in college, and have two friends in three years during graduate school.

Dad loves you, okay. "

Su Chengyi slapped the greeting card on the table.

Is there a possibility that he doesn't know how to play the saxophone at all?

What's the point of having two people in three years?

For some reason, I feel the urge to throw out the guitar and the greeting card.

After thinking about it, forget it.

Su Chengyi sighed and moved the angle to make the guitar more stable to avoid knocking it to the ground.

The sender of the next box was Yangliu, and it was relatively light. Su Chengyi guessed that it should be winter underwear.

Unexpectedly, there was a suit inside.

It looked custom-made to his size, with gold-plated cuffs and classic black and white.

The greeting card was inserted into the breast pocket.

"Tips:
Happy birthday!Is your college life going well? Have you made any new good friends?

It doesn’t matter if you don’t have it, just take your time.

The key is to eat well, rest well, exercise more, and drink more water.

Winter has come recently, and I see that the temperature in the capital has been cooling down, so please pay attention to keep warm.

Mom always feels that time goes too fast and you are gone in a blink of an eye.

When I dream recently, I always dream about you lying on the table doing Mathematical Olympiad when you were a child.

I hope to make academic progress in the new year. No, my child seems to have no room for improvement.

All the best, all your wishes come true!
My mother thought about the birthday gift for a long time and felt that adult boys really need such a suit of their own.

Give it a try when you have time and take a photo for Mom to see!
Love you mom. "

It's better to forget about trying it now. Su Chengyi put the box of the suit in the closet compartment.

There is no iron in the dormitory, so it will be troublesome if it gets wrinkled.

I think there were many occasions when I needed to wear formal attire during college, and Yang Liu was very considerate.

The next box's sender's name is Chocolate.

Su Chengyi actually didn't expect that this kid would send him a birthday gift. After all, before he left, he tricked him and left him a box of test papers.

I kind of wonder if there might be some vengeful trick toy inside.

Su Chengyi and the box looked at each other for a long time before starting to open it.

Inside was a box of wine-filled chocolates; a small rubber football toy for decompression, much like the ones often sold at the canteen at the school entrance; and even a few pen refills.

The greeting card looks like it was made by myself, with ugly laces drawn on the edges with watercolor pens.

"Brother Xiaoyi:
Hello!Zhan Xinjia.

Happy birthday to you.

This chocolate is delicious, I accidentally ate one.

I am sorry.

Football toys are the most popular in our class now and are very fun.

I can't run out of refills.

Is college fun?Is there a lot of homework?Mom always said that things will get easier when you get to college. I don’t believe it, but I believe you.

Please reply as soon as possible!
Sincerely, salute! "

The font is crooked, but the writing is very vigorous, and it seems that I have tried my best to write well.

Su Chengyi felt a little want to laugh. After Sister Lin, a close sister, now she felt like she had an extra unlucky younger brother.

I tore off the wrapping paper and tasted a piece of liqueur chocolate.

It's so sweet that only little kids would like it.

No, maybe Chu Qingmian would also like it.

The fourth box was very small, so Su Chengyi easily put it in his pocket. He didn't remember it until he was hit when he stood up.

I don’t recognize the sender’s name, but after I opened it, there was a USB flash drive inside.

The letter paper is very classic, even written with a brush, and there is a faint scent of ink after opening it.

You don't need to look to know who sent it.

Then the sender is probably Mr. Li's assistant.

"Intent:
A letter is like a meeting.Happy birthday.

How are you these days?

Many flowers have bloomed in the courtyard, full of vitality, and autumn is even better than spring.

The thing you entrusted to you is already gaining momentum, but you still need to hear about it before making further plans.

After thinking about it, Li decided to take this series of songs as your coming-of-age gift.

I wish you success in your career and studies. Zhiyuan is right, the future belongs to you.

Exactly: It should be noted that Shao Ri Na Yun Zhi once promised to be the best in the world. "Su Chengyi held the USB flash drive with a somewhat complicated mood.

Mr. Li obviously has high expectations for him, partly because of his grandfather, and partly because he really believes that he can do well.

Insert the USB flash drive into the computer. There are three audio clips of about 45 seconds each called "Bar", "Street" and "Coast".

There is also a 3-minute audio, which is named "Easter Egg".

Su Chengyi put on headphones and listened to each song one by one. The experience can only be described in a poem.

If you listen to fairy music, your ears will be clear for a while.

It’s hard to imagine that this is Mr. Li’s first foray into this type of music, his debut.

The music and drums in the "bar" are confusing and dreamy, and when you hear it, it feels like the kind of atmosphere that belongs to the last century, where people were drunk, feasting and feasting;
Correspondingly, "street" creates a lively and slightly lonely feeling, and you can tell that it belongs to a foreigner;
"Coast" is Su Chengyi's favorite. Just listening to it makes you feel like you are on the coast shrouded in night, with the unique smell of the sea breeze blowing against your face.

It is too strong.

Li Laoneng's current status in the field of composition is really not worth half a dime.

Being able to hire a composer of this caliber without spending any production funds is a blessing.

Su Chengyi was a little happy for a moment. In this case, the game "Disco Elysium" would not be destroyed in his hands.

No matter how bad the game production itself is, the reviews will always say: "Make music with your heart and games with your feet."

The last Easter egg music was mentioned by Su Chengyi before.

It's best to be magical and brainwashing, because it will be used as the game BGM for "Meow Meow".

After listening to it for a short time, Su Chengyi felt that his mind was filled with the strange and joyful drum beat.

There was even an inexplicable urge to shake my legs, but I finally restrained myself.

In this case, by adding BGM, "Meow Meow" can basically be declared complete.

Only the last two express boxes are left.

One was from Shanghai. I didn’t recognize the sender’s name, but I knew it was Chen Jinzhi at a glance.

One was from Tang'an, a gift from Liang Nina, and it was even sent directly from the guard room.

Su Chengyi hesitated for a moment and decided to save Chen Jinzhi's story until the end.

Liang Nina's box was very small. After being opened, there was a glasses case inside.

Armani sunglasses.

What is the purpose of this gift?
Su Chengyi opened the greeting card.

"Senior:
Today is also a day where I can survive only by thinking about my seniors.

There are still seven months left before the college entrance examination. In the latest monthly test, my score was in the early [-]s.

We are getting closer to senior, right?

I vaguely heard that the senior seemed to be very popular at Beijing University, so I gave him sunglasses as a gift.

Wear it when you meet someone you hate and don't want to deal with.

In fact, it can't be considered a gift, because there is no need to wait for a birthday as a reason.

At any time, whatever the seniors want, I will satisfy.

Aha, it seems a bit perverted to say this. When you see this, the senior should sigh again, right?
Hahaha" ヾ(▽)ノHappy birthday, senior!"

After seeing the ending, Su Chengyi resisted the urge to sigh.

But no matter what, she started studying hard for her own reasons, right?
This can be considered a meritorious deed.

If the child is not sensible, it will be fine if he passes the second period of secondary school.

Su Chengyi comforted herself a few words and put the sunglasses case on the desk compartment.

Su Chengyi paid the highest respect to Chen Jinzhi's gift, which he specially saved for last. He sat upright and opened it with breathless concentration.

The moment you open the box, the smell of fresh tea after the rain lingers around you.

Sure enough, privately, she still preferred this lighter taste.

The gift box is carefully arranged. On the left is a Burberry cashmere scarf, a classic plaid style.

On the right is another box, a Rolex Submariner mechanical watch. The dial is pure black, which looks low-key and handsome.

Chen Jinzhi's aesthetics have always been very good.

Su Chengyi put the watch on her wrist and tried it, but for a moment she was reluctant to wear it.

After taking out the scarf, I saw the envelope underneath.

The envelope was sealed with a retro paint seal, and Su Chengyi pulled it open.

In an instant, pink rose petals fell to one knee.

Su Chengyi was startled for a moment, then he was amused by her little romantic trick.

When I pulled out the letter paper and unfolded it, the paper was still filled with the fragrant scent of the flower petals.

"Su Chengyi:

See the word as the face.

As I write this, I’m on a flight to the group’s first show.

Before I started writing, I had a brief dream.

Everything in my dream was just a dream, and I was back on the flight back from South Korea.

Logically speaking, you should feel panicked and collapsed, right?
But then I thought about it, I was about to meet you by then.

So I actually want this dream to come true, so that I can fall in love with you all over again. "

“Happy birthday and happy new year.

Your previous watch was broken. Although we didn't have many opportunities to meet each other, I found that you occasionally raised your wrist to look at the watch, so I picked one for you.

Don’t be reluctant to wear it just because it’s a gift.

As for the scarf, well, I just think it will look good on you.

Speaking of which, I didn't believe in fate before. I didn't believe in the saying that everything will turn out well or that good things will come in hard times.

But since I met you, all the previous sufferings have been wiped away.

When I meet you face to face, you always don't believe what I say, saying that my eyes can be deceiving.

Then I will write it down solemnly now, in black and white, without any room for comment.

No matter who I am, Chen Jinzhi or Iris, I will always belong to you only. "

The gold content of this last sentence made Su Chengyi a little stunned for a moment.

The moment he unfolded the letter, he thought about a lot of things Chen Jinzhi might write, but he never thought it would be such a promise.

Su Chengyi folded the letter paper, picked up the scattered petals one by one, and put them all into the envelope.

He raised his eyes and looked around. After such a process of receiving gifts on his birthday, his originally neat and simple place suddenly became crowded.

The desk is densely packed and looks a bit messy.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder was causing trouble, and he got up to simply clean up.

But looking at these objects, he pointed his fingers and felt that it was quite good now.

The gifts he received on this birthday this year are probably more than he received on all birthdays in his previous life combined.

In the past, he might not be happy about this, and might even feel burdened.

Because it is human nature to reciprocate, if someone else prepares a gift for you, it is only reasonable that you should give the same consideration to them on their birthday.

This was something that Su Chengyi had found difficult to do in the past. If it was just a matter of money, it would be okay. The problem was that etiquette was more important than affection.

The best he can do is value etiquette over affection.

But now his mind has changed.Because receiving a gift is indeed a surprise that makes people feel happy from the bottom of their hearts.

There is also a very compact cake box on the table, made by Miss Chu.

The original plan was to make a three-layer cake, but it turned out that without the loving guidance of her pastry chef, it would be difficult for Miss Chu to complete such a great undertaking by herself.

The imagination is wonderful, but what comes out in the end is a lump of black coal, as abstract as the snowman outside the door.

But before leaving to go back to school, she still rushed out such a cupcake.

Su Chengyi didn't care at all. He hadn't eaten cake in many years.

But Chu Qingmian insisted that it was a ritual and ordered him to eat it properly.

Su Chengyi sat down again and opened the lid of the box.

The cake base is coated with cream and simply decorated with strawberries.

Su Chengyi took out a lighter from the drawer.

He bought this on the day he checked in. He didn't smoke, so he planned to use it to light mosquito coils.

But unlike Tang'an, there aren't that many mosquitoes in Beijing, so I haven't used it since I bought it.

"Crack."

Su Chengyi pressed the lighter button, and a flame burst out and swayed slightly.

He closed his eyes and made a wish.

"Every year comes, good times come."
