Chapter 128 Birthday Present

Today's Zhu Jingjing is indeed very different from the past. Shao Wu knows that it is because of the makeup, her eyes have become bigger, the bridge of her nose has become higher, her skin is white and radiant, and the wedding dress outlines her curves—this time it shows With the advantages of a physical education teacher, she has a thin waist and long legs, and she is slim and slim.

Her groom is also very handsome. Although he only wears a simple suit, he is probably better than a young man. He has a smile on his face, and his whole body is in good spirits.

Under the gaze of everyone, a couple of newlyweds walked onto the stage slowly.The wedding has officially begun.

Before, Zhu Jingjing said on the phone that she planned to make the wedding simpler, but now it seems that it is not that simple. A luxurious hotel and a well-decorated venue must have cost a lot of money.Thinking of this, Shao Wu felt relieved, and his willingness to spend money at least proved that both parties valued this wedding.

The wedding process is pretty much the same. There is a beautiful girl in the bridesmaids group, who is the groom's cousin. She came on stage and sang "You Will Marry Me Today" for everyone. With her singing, the atmosphere at the scene became more and more lively. And warm.

When it came time for the bride and groom to exchange rings, the parents of both parties shed tears as expected, and several relatives at the next table also wiped their tears with smiles. Youth just flashed by like a dove flying over the sky above my head.He always felt that a few days ago, he was sitting at the same table with Zhu Jingjing, teaching her math problems, and suddenly at this moment, Zhu Jingjing was standing on the stage, and a ring was carefully put on by her groom.

Zhu Jingjing said: "I was lucky to meet Ziming... I want to thank my parents, thank you for raising me and giving me a happy family... I also want to thank my friends, thank you for being with me, Support me...Thank you..." She started to choke up as she spoke.

Everything went smoothly, everyone had almost finished their meals, the groom was still in the same suit, Zhu Jingjing changed into a knee-length red dress, and the two began to toast at the table.Shao Wu's table was alright, they were all young people, they didn't drink too much, but some guests at other tables gradually got drunk, either persuading each other to drink, or chatting loudly, the scene was a bit noisy.

Seeing that Zhu Jingjing and the others had just arrived at the second table, Shao Wu got up and asked the waiter beside him, "Excuse me, how can I get to the bathroom?"

"You go straight from here to the end, just turn right."

"Okay, thank you."

Walking out of the banquet hall, there was no air conditioner, and the temperature increased sharply. Fortunately, it was only the beginning of May, and it was not too hot.On the contrary, Shao Wu felt comfortable. He wrinkled his nose, sneezed twice, and felt that his brain was much clearer.After using the bathroom, Shao Wu didn't go back in a hurry, but stood in front of the corridor window and took out his mobile phone.

Shao Wu sent Yang Shuyi a WeChat message: Have you had lunch yet?

He also said: My side is almost over.

Shao Wu pushed the window open a gap, and a breeze came in. This is the most comfortable wind in late spring, soft and warm.Shao Wu looked out through the window, and not far away was the newly opened Wanda Plaza in Yongchuan, where the Starbucks logo was very conspicuous.Yongchuan even opened a Starbucks. Over the years, things have changed a lot.Shao Wu couldn't help thinking that when they were in high school, the most common snacks everyone ate were probably ice powder and cold cakes at the school gate, and of course there were also fried potatoes and baked gluten-now high school students probably order takeaway directly.

After blowing enough wind, Yang Shuyi still didn't reply to WeChat.Shao Wu really wanted to call him. Although he didn't have anything special to say, he just wanted to call Yang Shuyi and hear his voice.He was sure that Yang Shuyi loved him, that Yang Shuyi was his boyfriend, but at this moment, he still desperately wanted to reconfirm these things through some way.

So Shao Wu dialed Yang Shuyi's number, after a few "beeps" and "beeps", the phone was picked up.

"Hello," was Yang Shuyi's usual calm tone, "Xiao Shao?"

"Why don't you reply to my WeChat."

"I didn't look at my phone."

"Oh," Shao Wu said sullenly, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet—have you been drinking?"

"Drink a little, not drunk."

"..."

"Really," Shao Wu softened his voice, "It's almost over here, if it's earlier, I'll change the ticket and let's have dinner together, okay?"

"No, I..."

"I'll take you to eat small noodles. There's a restaurant in Guanyinqiao. It's very delicious."

"Shao Wu, I already..."

"Don't ignore me," Shao Wuyue said, the more aggrieved, all kinds of emotions in the past few days rushed into his heart, "I miss you."

Yang Shuyi was silent for a few seconds.

Then he sighed very softly and said, "I'm here."

"Ok?"

"I'm at Jinhui Hotel."

Shao Wu suspected that he was really drunk, but he shouldn't, he only drank a can of beer.He rushed into the banquet hall like the wind under his feet, and in just a moment, Shao Wu saw Yang Shuyi's back.

Although it's just a back view.But he was sure that it was Yang Shuyi, his gaze was like a magnet meeting an iron block, with a "ding" he was attracted by Yang Shuyi.

With a blank mind, Shao Wu stepped forward and saw Yang Shuyi sitting in his place.

He was wearing Shao Wu's T-shirt, a loose long-sleeved black T-shirt, which fit him well.

"You," Shao Wu asked blankly, "Why are you here?"

"The work is over early." Yang Shuyi said without changing his face.

At this time, the waiter moved a chair: "Sir, where do you see the addition?"

"Just here," Yang Shuyi said, "next to me."

So Shao Wu sat beside Yang Shuyi.

He didn't know how Yang Shuyi explained it to the others, but everyone looked as usual and chatted lively.On the other side, the bride and groom are still toasting, and they are almost at their table.

"Hey, Yang Shuyi," said a girl, "I heard that you bought a house in Chengdu? Where did you buy it? Give me a reference."

Yang Shuyi: "I didn't buy it."

Shao Wu: "..."

"Ah?" Perhaps Yang Shuyi's answer was too straightforward, the girl was stunned for a moment, "Didn't Shaowu say that you and your wife bought it..."

Yang Shuyi turned his head and glanced at Shao Wu.

Shao Wu laughed awkwardly: "You didn't buy it? Then I remembered wrongly, it's my college classmate..."

"I've already resigned, and I'm not in Chengdu now." After Yang Shuyi said this, everyone became quiet for an instant, and they all looked over.

"My ex-wife and I," Yang Shuyi continued with a blank expression, "we're divorced."

Everyone: "..."

Shao Wu:? ! ? ! ? !

No, why did he just say that, why did he just say that? !Shao Wu was in a state of confusion, staring at Yang Shuyi with straight eyes, no one spoke, maybe because of shock, maybe because of embarrassment.Shao Wu met Wang Wen's gaze, and Wang Wen looked confused, as if asking Shao Wu: Did you just tease us?

Shao Wu recalled what he said before the wedding began.

Their relationship is very good.

She's a handsome man, isn't she?

They are indeed a good match.

……

"Hey, this..." The girl who asked Yang Shuyi about buying a house just now raised her wine glass, apparently also biting the bullet, "Why don't you go to the old one and come to the new one? It's not easy for us to get together, so come and go."

The others raised their glasses very cooperatively, yelling indiscriminately, that is, let's go, I wish everyone a fortune this year hahaha...

Shao Wu thought to himself that almost half of this year has passed, okay...

After toasting in such a muddle-headed manner, everyone sat down, Shao Wu secretly heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that what happened just now can be overturned!

In the next second, Yang Shuyi's voice came from beside him, the volume was not too loud, but when he spoke, everyone was quiet again.

Everyone was very calm on the surface, but in fact they all put their ears up, rushing to the front line of listening to gossip.

"I've already found a new one," Yang Shuyi said lightly, "He's a very good one."

Everyone: "..."

Shao Wu's face burned instantly, and his heart was raised in his throat. He was really afraid--I was really afraid that Yang Shuyi would say one more sentence: "It's Shao Wu."

Then they are famous today.

"Okay, let's go to the next table!" Shao Wu heard Zhu Jingjing's voice, raised his eyes, and saw Zhu Jingjing and the groom walking towards them, surrounded by several relatives.

"Bride, you are too beautiful!" Wang Wen stood up and hugged Zhu Jingjing affectionately, "Congratulations!"

Zhu Jingjing also smiled: "Thank you everyone for coming to join us! I won't say much else, let's do one, come—" Her eyes flicked over the faces of her classmates one by one, and she paused when she saw Shao Wu and Yang Shuyi for a second.

Everyone stood up and toasted the bride and groom.

Shao Wu felt very dangerous, but fortunately Zhu Jingjing and the others came over.

After drinking, we naturally have to chat a few words.Several classmates gathered around Zhu Jingjing and the groom, asking them where they planned to spend their honeymoon, and after a while they asked when they were going to have children, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Shao Wu wanted to say a few words to Zhu Jingjing alone, mainly to thank her. When he was in college, he often went to Southwest University in the name of looking for Zhu Jingjing. Later, when he graduated and returned to work at his alma mater, Zhu Jingjing was his only one. His friend... Zhu Jingjing has helped him too much in the past few years, and also gave him a lot of comfort.

It's just that Zhu Jingjing was surrounded by everyone and seemed to have no time to talk to him.The two looked at each other, and Zhu Jingjing smiled at Shao Wu with a helpless expression.

After a while, they went to the next table to toast.

The students were still chatting, this situation was really embarrassing - in front of outsiders, Shao Wu couldn't ask any questions he wanted to ask Yang Shuyi; and Yang Shuyi didn't seem to want to talk to him, just sat quietly, occasionally someone else Come to talk, he will answer a few words.

Shaowu realized belatedly, was Yang Shuyi angry?

angry with him?

But - but he didn't mess with Yang Shuyi, did he?

Under the table, Shao Wu touched Yang Shuyi with his knee, and said anxiously: "Shuyi..."

Yang Shuyi: "Yes."

"You..." Shao Wu struggled for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Have you not had lunch yet?"

"not yet."

Although he didn't know why Yang Shuyi was angry, he couldn't help being nervous.

"Going to eat something else later?"

Yang Shuyi glanced at Shao Wu and said in a low voice, "Okay."

Not long after, Zhu Jingjing finished toasting, and guests began to leave the venue one after another.Wang Wen suggested that everyone go to sing K, Shao Wu naturally found a reason, shook his head and refused.

Yang Shuyi didn't even look for a reason, and said directly: "You guys go."

But no one persuaded him, and probably other people also hoped that he would not go, so that it would be convenient to discuss the gossip about his divorce.

Everyone got up, Zhu Jingjing came to see off the guests, this time it was only herself.After seeing off the students, Shao Wu and Yang Shuyi were the only ones sitting at the table.The groom over there was still being persuaded to drink, and Zhu Jingjing's cheeks were flushed from drinking, and her voice was a little hoarse.

She came to Shao Wu with a smile: "Are you leaving too?"

"Don't worry," Shao Wu said, "Is there anything we can do for you?"

"No, it's all arranged, and we'll leave later," Zhu Jingjing smiled, raised her hand and rubbed her shoulders, "I'm really tired, getting married is like fighting a war."

"Thank you." Shao Wu paused and said seriously, "Congratulations, Jingjing."

"Thank you, thank you," Zhu Jingjing's eyes drifted from Shao Wu's face to Yang Shuyi's, and then back again, and she said, "Congratulations to you too."

Yang Shuyi: "Thank you."

"I don't know how the two of you arranged it, but," she looked at Shao Wu, but obviously told Yang Shuyi, "Shao Wu has not been easy for so many years."

Yang Shuyi said: "I know. I'm divorced."

Zhu Jingjing smiled and said, "That's good."

For a moment, Shao Wu had mixed feelings, and he thought they all knew how much emotion and meaning the three words "that's good" contained.Only those who have experienced those years together will understand.

Zhu Jingjing opened her arms to Shao Wu, and Shao Wu stepped forward and hugged her quickly.

Shao Wu said: "If your husband bullies you in the future, just tell me, and I will take Shuyi to beat him up."

Zhu Jingjing smiled openly, "OK."

"Then we go back first?"

"Well, let's meet again later!"

"no problem."

The three said their goodbyes, Shao Wu and Yang Shuyi walked towards the door, the whole hall was very noisy, there were guests standing around, and it was also very chaotic.

"Shao Wu!"

Zhu Jingjing suddenly caught up again and stopped two or three steps away from them.

"what happened?"

"Do you remember the birthday present I gave you when you were a sophomore in high school?"

"..."

"You didn't take it apart, did you?"

"That," Shao Wu recalled forcefully for a few seconds, "I...yes, I didn't take it apart."

It was his birthday in 2008, and an earthquake 280 kilometers away changed everything.If Zhu Jingjing hadn't mentioned it, he would probably have forgotten the unopened gift box forever.

"I knew it," Zhu Jingjing smiled and said briskly, "Okay, I have no regrets now."
