After the divorce, the boss doted on me
Chapter 380: Birthday
Sana took her hand and bounced down the stairs. She was wearing a sky blue princess dress, and the fluffy skirt swayed with the movement, like a little butterfly dancing among flowers.
She looked at Gu Mian for a few seconds, then pursed her red mouth: "You still don't agree with me when I say I will help you with makeup. Your complexion looks so bad. Did you not rest last night?"
Gu Mian paused, raised her hand to touch her face, is her face really that bad?
In order to apply for the best school to study abroad, she needs to take many exams and interviews, and the results of each exam must be top-notch.So, recently, she has returned to her third year of high school, even busier than her senior year.
If it wasn't because it was her birthday today, and her uncle and mother asked her to come out to relax, she would have planned to stay with the test questions in the library.
Gu Mian touched her braids, and said lightly, "Maybe, I didn't pay attention to the time when I was doing the questions last night, and it passed zero by accident."
Sana sighed: "It's a pity, the new lipstick my mother bought is very beautiful, she won't let me touch it, but if she puts on makeup for you, she must be willing to do it, she loves you the most."
Big kid!
Gu Mian tapped the tip of her nose: "Honestly speaking, do you want to play with mom's lipstick and use me as an excuse on purpose?"
My sister is so smart that she can guess right. Sana stuck out her tongue: "You saw it."
The two stood beside Gu and waited for a while, Sana was puzzled and said: "Aren't we going to order cakes, then go to the playground, and then go to the supermarket to buy ingredients for dinner? Why don't you take a taxi?"
Even though it was the weekend, Tan Qian still had to go to the hospital as usual. His wife happened to be free at home, so he discussed with Tan Man, let the two children go out to play for a day, and cook a table of delicious food for Gu Mian to celebrate his birthday in the evening.
Gu Mian: "We have to wait for someone."
Sana was even more confused. She probably didn't know anyone here, so she asked curiously, "Who is it?"
"It's my friend, he goes to school in England." Gu Mian said.
As soon as the words fell, a black car slowly drove over and stopped in front of the two of them.
Sana blinked her round eyes, why didn't she know that her sister had such a handsome friend!
The boy opened the door and got out of the car, standing in front of them, tall and straight like a tree, with an apologetic smile on his handsome face: "Sorry for being late, I was temporarily informed by the instructor to modify the design drawing."
The hair was blown to the face by the wind, Gu Mian brushed it away with her hand: "I should say sorry to you, but you don't need to come here to celebrate my birthday with me, your architecture department is so busy."
Cambridge University's 1 major is not so easy to learn, and it takes a lot of time just to draw design drawings.
Lu Chen looked natural: "I missed your birthday last year. You just came to the UK this year. You are so close to me. My friend will help you celebrate whatever you say, unless you don't welcome me. Gu Mian, don't do that I'm stingy, I'm just here for a piece of birthday cake."
After a pause, he raised his eyebrows and said, "I didn't come here empty-handed. I bought you a birthday present."
If it was before, Gu Mian couldn't help but laugh out loud when he made such a joke, but now she can't.After a long silence, she just said politely, "Thank you."
Lu Chen is such a smart person, how could he fail to see the change in Gu Mian.
Her expression didn't seem the slightest bit different, but her brows had lost the brilliance of the past, giving him the feeling that she was hiding a lot of things on her mind.
He learned about the Gu family's misfortune from his uncle Xiang Yifeng, felt sorry for Gu Mian's experience, and wanted to comfort her, but he knew that not mentioning the sad things at this time was the best comfort for her.
He believes that she will slowly come out of the shadows and become the confident Gu Mian before.
The two were chatting, Sana, who was like a radish, raised a hand: "Did you forget about me?"
Lu Chen looked down at the little mixed-race girl, smiled and hugged her: "How could I forget you, Sana?"
The little girl was surprised: "You know my name? But we haven't seen each other before."
Lu Chen said: "Your sister mentioned it once, and I will remember it. Hello, let me introduce myself formally. My name is Lu Chen. I am your sister's friend. We will be friends in the future."
What could be more gratifying than having a handsome new friend, Sana immediately threw her sister out of the blue and chatted with Lu Chen instead.
If he hadn't been sitting in the driver's seat and driving, she would have wanted to cling to him.
Lu Chen held the steering wheel in her hands, and looked at Gu Mian's face through the rearview mirror. She didn't pay attention to him, and turned her head to look out the window in a daze, unable to hide her depressed mood anymore.
He tried to liven up the atmosphere: "Little birthday boy, where are we going at the first stop?"
Gu Mian froze for a moment, and just as she was about to answer, another immature voice said first: "Go to the cake shop! I know a delicious cake shop. My mother took me there last time, and we ordered a birthday cake for my sister there. "
Lu Chen pursed her lips, retracted her eyes and concentrated on driving.
Following sana's instructions, he found the cake shop.
The little girl took Lu Chen's hand as soon as she got out of the car, and led him to the cake shop, Gu Mian followed behind them.
The three of them stood in front of a row of cake models to choose from. Each of the cake models placed inside was very delicate. Lu Chen turned to look at her: "Which one do you like?"
Gu Mian glanced at it without any idea, then lowered her head and asked the snack: "Sana, help my sister choose one."
Sana stood on her tiptoes, leaned her little face on the glass cabinet, couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, what should I do, everything looks delicious.
Even so, she did not forget who the protagonist is today, and said seriously: "Today is my sister's birthday, and it should be my sister who chooses the birthday cake."
Gu Mian then bent down to take a closer look. Seeing her tangled expression, Lu Chen nodded through the glass with her fingertips: "I think that fruit cake is better."
Sana's eyes lit up, this friend's vision is simply amazing!
The cake has three layers, the top layer is made of strawberries in the shape of a bunny, the bottom two layers are covered with various fruits, and the decoration is black chocolate balls.
Gu Mian couldn't make up her mind at first, but since he chose this one and liked Sana's appearance, she didn't have any objections. She turned around and went to the clerk to make a reservation, and agreed to come and pick it up in the evening.
When paying, she suddenly said, "Please don't put any mangoes."
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she was stunned, and she realized what she had said after realizing it. The words were out of her mind, and she blurted out completely subconsciously.
Ji Lingchuan is allergic to mangoes. From the day she knew about it, she stopped eating mangoes, no matter whether he was around or not.
"Mianmian? What's wrong with you?"
Lu Chen touched her arm, she was in a daze, and dropped her wallet on the ground, along with a photo of Ji Lingchuan.
Gu Mian paused, staring blankly at the photo.
Ji Lingchuan was wearing a white sweater, sitting on the sofa at home, tilting his head and smiling at the camera, with a lazy expression like an animal about to hibernate.
This is the time she went to his house to take a casual photo.
Later, she and Su Xiaomi went shopping and visited a drink shop, and there was a machine for printing photos for free at the door.Su Xiaomi took her to experience it. She originally wanted to print a photo of herself and Ji Lingchuan. There were a lot of people around. She was afraid of attracting attention, so she only printed a personal photo of Ji Lingchuan.Before her, there were also girls who printed pictures of stars, so her behavior is not surprising.
As an insider, Su Xiaomi said meaningfully while drinking milk tea: "If I didn't know your relationship with Ji Lingchuan, I suspect that you are Ji Lingchuan's fan just like those girls."
Lu Chen also saw that photo.
After carefully identifying it for a while, he remembered that the person above was a big star who had been to the attached high school to film a movie, and he seemed to be called Ji Lingchuan.
He also saw him talking with Gu Mian, right in front of the bulletin board of the senior three teaching building.
Sana raised her neck and said, "Sister, don't you like mangoes?"
Gu Mian came back to her senses, hurriedly picked up the wallet and photos on the ground, turned her face away, her voice was a little choked: "I'm a little uncomfortable, please pay for me, I'll return it to you later."
After she finished speaking, she hurried out.
Lu Chen wanted to catch up, but was stared at by the clerk to pay the deposit, so he took out the card from his wallet and handed it over.
After he finished paying the bill, he took Sana out with the same confused face, and saw Gu Mian standing beside Gu Mian with her back to them, her long hair was blown by the wind, she looked so sad.
Lu Chen let go of Sana's hand and walked over. Gu Mian felt that someone was approaching, so she pursed her lips tightly and closed her eyes, trying to adjust her emotions.
He said softly, "Are you okay?"
Gu Mian calmed down slowly, shook her head and said, "It's okay." She held the wallet tightly with her fingers, took a deep breath, "How much is the cake, I'll give it to you."
Lu Chen: "No need, the payment is a deposit, there is not much money, and you will pay the full amount when you come to pick it up in the afternoon."
Gu Mian insisted on returning it to him, but he couldn't hold back her so he just told the truth.
The three got in the car and set off to the playground.
Lu Chen thought for a while, and said: "Mianmian, we have known each other for so many years, if you have anything to tell me, I will do my best to help you. Even if you can't help, you will feel much more comfortable if you say it, don't Keep it all in your head, and you'll be tired."
Gu Mian's eyes flickered, did he see it?
She tried so hard to hide it, but it was still seen by others.
Although Sana is a bit more mature than ordinary children, it doesn't mean that she can participate in their adult affairs.She looked at Lu Chen who was driving ahead, and then at Gu Mian who was beside her. She didn't understand what he was talking about. The only thing she could understand was that Gu Mian was in a bad mood.
She thinks her birthday is the happiest day of the year besides Christmas. Why is she in a bad mood?
Is it...
Gu Mian didn't know how to answer, but her hand was grabbed by a soft little hand. She lowered her eyes to meet Sana's beautiful eyes, and heard her comforting: "Are you still sad about your aunt's legs? Dad said she would Get well, don't worry, my father is the most powerful doctor in the world, he can cure any disease."
Her words were full of childishness, because she didn't know enough about the world, she thought that what she saw was the most powerful in the world.
Gu Mian also didn't want her emotions to affect others, so she smiled slightly: "I'm not sad, I'm very happy that you can accompany me out to play."
Sana sat on the seat and shook her head: "It's not me accompanying you, but you accompanying me. I have the opportunity to come out to play because of your birthday, and I don't have to be urged by my mother to practice the piano."
Gu Mian was healed by this pistachio: "At that moment, you have to have fun."
She looked at Gu Mian for a few seconds, then pursed her red mouth: "You still don't agree with me when I say I will help you with makeup. Your complexion looks so bad. Did you not rest last night?"
Gu Mian paused, raised her hand to touch her face, is her face really that bad?
