don't force me

Of course, Lin Tingan remembered Du Xuan's birthday. The first year they met was when they "looked at each other and hated each other".In the third year of junior high school and the first year of high school, he celebrated for Du Xuan, but the so-called celebration means having a meal together and giving a small gift or something.Even if it was a meal, it was not on a regular day, after all Du Xuan was going to spend that day with his parents.This year's birthday is different. Du Xuan is 18 years old and an adult. Lin Ting'an has long wanted to celebrate him and give him a different gift.

On Du Xuan's birthday, Lin Ting'an got up early in the morning. Ma Jing, who had just gotten up to make breakfast, saw her son had already wrapped up his down jacket and was standing in the porch changing shoes. up so early?"

"Ah, I'm holding the key to our class."

"How can I ask you to get it? Wouldn't it delay you to get the key if you always step on the bell to enter the classroom?"

"It's because I stepped on the bell to enter the classroom that Teacher Xu punished me for taking the key." Lin Tingan waved his hand, "Let's go."

Ma Jing glanced at the clock on the wall and muttered, "Even if the door is opened, it's too early."

It was really too early, Lin Tingan was staggered by the cold wind as soon as he walked out of the building door, he wrapped his scarf tightly, jumped and rushed into the darkness.From the balcony on the second floor, Ma Jing watched her son's tall and thin figure quickly disappear into the thick darkness, feeling a little puzzled in her heart.Lin Tingan stepped on the bell to enter the classroom for not a day or two. Since Du Xuan moved away, it was considered a problem. It has been almost a year. Why does Teacher Xu think of punishing him now?It's only six o'clock, and he arrives at school at 25:06 at most. In this winter, there are still students who arrive at school at 30:[-]?

Ma Jing frowned, she always felt that today should be a special day, but... what is it?

When Du Xuan walked out of the house at [-]:[-], she checked WeChat, QQ and text messages without giving up, but there was still nothing.He originally thought that Lin Ting'an would be the first to wish him a happy birthday at midnight, but who would have thought that Li Tianyou's WeChat message came at a quarter past twelve, and Du Xuan replied "thank you" dumbfounded.It was Sun Rui who sent the WeChat message right after him, and the notification bell for WeChat kept ringing until one o'clock in the morning. He received fifty or sixty WeChat messages for celebration, but they were all from high school seniors.

Du Xuan sighed, obviously, high school dogs don't need to sleep.

When he climbed into bed at 01:30, the WeChat message he most wanted to receive still hadn't appeared.Du Xuan opened the phone's photo album, pulled out Lin Tingan's photo, opened the editing software, drew Lin Tingan's two braids, added a pair of ugly glasses, drew two big red bumps on his cheeks, and then tapped a Matchmaker mole.Looking at her boyfriend's ugly appearance, Du Xuan poked at the phone screen and said to herself, "If you don't give me a surprise tomorrow, I'll post this on the campus forum."

When I woke up, the first thing I did when I opened my eyes was to check my phone, but I was still disappointed. Du Xuan always gritted his teeth while washing.

Zhou Man sent her son off at the door. She said, "Xiaoxuan, I wish you a happy birthday. I can't finish dinner. Let's have some supper when we come back from school to celebrate?"

Du Xuan hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's talk about it when the time comes. If there is too much homework, I won't go. I will do my homework in the self-study room."

Zhou Man walked up to Du Xuan, looked at his son's obviously thin face and said, "The third year of high school is quite tiring, so keep going, everyone has to pass this level."

"Okay," Du Xuan said obediently, "I will work hard, I still want to be admitted to Beijing Medical University."

Zhou Man frowned quickly, but said: "No matter what you study, you have to score. Let's talk about it after the exam is over... Peking University is not easy to take."

Du Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, her mother's words were considered a relief.

Zhou Man said: "one more thing, your father may take you to dinner today. You decide whether to go or not. "

Du Xuan nodded, opened the door and walked out.

It was very dark outside, and many people had hurried out of the warm room.Du Xuan glanced at the phone again, and was about to step out of the building.Suddenly, a pair of arms quickly hugged his waist, and a familiar voice said in his ear with warmth: "Happy birthday, handsome guy."

"Fuck!" Du Xuan couldn't help jumping up, "Why are you here?"

Lin Tingan let go of his hand, and walked around in front of him: "Are you surprised? Are you surprised?"

"It was a shock. I didn't expect you to come." Du Xuan said with a smile, "How did you come here? What time did you wake up?"

"It started at [-]:[-], and I made an appointment for a car last night." Lin Tingan leaned over and kissed Du Xuan secretly in the dark corridor.

"The school is between our two homes, you have a big circle." Du Xuan followed Lin Tingan with his lips and tongue, and said vaguely.

"It smells like mint toothpaste." Lin Tingan licked his lips and said, "You just finished brushing your teeth."

Du Xuan took a breath, her eyes sparkling: "Ah - I don't even want to go to school anymore."

Lin Tingan tugged at him: "Let's go, you are a third-year dog."

The two rushed into the cold wind with a smile. Du Xuan chased Lin Tingan and asked, "Why didn't you send me a WeChat message last night? I thought you would be the first to do so."

"It's so dishonest to send a WeChat message that you can get it done with your fingertips. I come to the door in person, which is so different." Lin Tingan said disdainfully, "Who sent it to you first? Sun Rui?"

"Li Tianyou."

Lin Tingan paused, and cursed bitterly: "Son of a turtle! If I knew it earlier, I would have sent it to you. What's the matter with him?"

The smile on Du Xuan's face could not be put away all the time, and now she smiled more happily: "I will go to school later, Li Tian may give me a gift."

Lin Tingan narrowed his eyes: "Don't accept it."

"That's so rude."

"Tsk," Lin Tingan said impatiently, "just take it, and save it for Sun Rui's birthday, so you don't have to spend money on it."

Du Xuan laughed loudly; "Hey, I said Lin Ting'an, you are too good at living."

Lin Tingan said, "Stop laughing, McDonald's on this side of the road, KFC on the opposite side, and a steamed stuffed bun shop in front, what would you like to have for breakfast?"

Du Xuan: "I'll eat whatever you invite."

Lin Tingan stared: "Why did I invite you? Shouldn't you invite me to celebrate your birthday?"

"You just saved me some money after you said that."

Lin Tingan "..."

Du Xuan waved: "Go, I want to eat KFC."

There were still a lot of people in KFC, so Du Xuan took the initiative to find a seat. Lin Ting arranged for a team to buy two breakfasts, and when he turned around with the plates, he saw Du Xuan sitting in a corner, looking down at his phone.

Two years ago, it seemed that he was also in this corner, holding a dinner plate and looking excitedly at Du Xuan, who had just become a boyfriend for less than 12 hours.At that time, when I thought of this person, I would laugh, when I saw this person, I couldn't help but want to kiss, and when I hugged this person, I hoped for the rest of my life.Now, two years have passed, it is still freezing November, and at this KFC where there is still no window seat, Lin Tingan looks at this person in front of him, and feels—it’s over!I like him even more!

Du Xuan waved at Lin Tingan: "Come here quickly, I'll be late."

Lin Tingan walked over with fluttering feet: "It's been two full years."

"Huh? Huh!" Du Xuan immediately realized, "There are still many years left."

Lin Tingan: "In the future, your birthday can be celebrated with your anniversary."

Du Xuan rolled her eyes: "Then you can just prepare a gift, say you will pass it, you really 'know it', right?"

Lin Tingan looked at Du Xuan and felt that he was really, really screwed, because he thought Du Xuan was so handsome even if he rolled his eyes.

When he walked into the school gate, Lin Tingan said to Du Xuan: "Your last physical education class, remember to go to the cafeteria to occupy a hidden table."

Du Xuan said, "No matter how hidden it is, it's still a cafeteria. What do you want to do?"

Lin Tingan: "You will know when the time comes."

With such a question in mind, Du Xuan didn't have a solid class all morning, and rushed into the cafeteria to grab a good seat after PE class.Sun Rui lined up for him for a long time to get back two meals, and asked, "When will Lin Tingan come over?"

Du Xuan shook her head: "I don't know."

Sun Rui stood up on tiptoe and looked towards the gate: "There are so many people in the cafeteria, what can he do... Hey, here it is, what does he have?"

Du Xuan watched Lin Tingan push through the crowd with a box wrapped in a white plastic bag in his hands, and he immediately realized what it was.

Sun Rui vacated the table, Lin Tingan put down the box and said, "Hey, it's not easy to smuggle in."

"Cake?" Sun Rui lifted the lid of the box and was really surprised, "You actually bought such an ugly cake?"

Lin Tingan lowered his face: "Ugly?"

"Ugly!" Sun Rui sighed, "This kind of color scheme, this framed flower is like a dog chewing on it, and this lump is just like..."

"Shut up!" Du Xuan interrupted Sun Rui, "If I ask you to do it, it must be uglier than this."

Lin Tingan turned to Du Xuan, with a smile on his face instantly, and he asked, "How do you know I did it?"

Du Xuan stretched out his hand to spread a little cream and put it into his mouth: "The box is printed with 'Penumbra'. If Brother Ding could make such an ugly cake, Penumbra would have been closed long ago."

"Look," Sun Rui said unconvinced, "it's just ugly."

"I say yes," Du Xuan shook her finger, "You say no."

Sun Rui sat down and was too angry to speak.

Lin Tingan said: "It's ugly, but the cream and cake are made by Brother Ding, so they must be delicious."

Du Xuan asked, "When did you do it?"

"I made it after training yesterday, and Brother Ding sent it to me at noon today."

"Mr. Zhou actually agrees?"

Lin Tingan said proudly: "I told Mr. Zhou that they were running shoes. I forgot to bring them. My brother brought them to me."

Sun Rui put down his fork in distress: "Will you let me eat?"

Lin Tingan ignored him and pushed the cake to Du Xuan: "Happy birthday."

It was a small square cake, as Sun Rui said, the mounting was really ugly.But Lin Tingan did it himself. It was almost eight o'clock when he finished training yesterday, and it was almost nine o'clock when he reached the penumbra. After finishing the cake, he went home and did his homework. He woke up at [-]:[-] this morning... ...Du Xuan thought distressedly, how many hours did he sleep last night?When I was receiving birthday wishes one by one, was he desperately rushing to do his homework, and when I was uploading his photos, was he standing on the balcony and struggling to recite words?Was he dozing off in the taxi while he was still struggling under the covers?

Lin Tingan clapped his hands and said, "Sing the birthday song, without candles, just make a wish and cut the cake."

Students around had already seen the cake on the table, and Du Xuan and Lin Tingan were both celebrities on campus, so there were more people booing.Starting from Lin Tingan, soon a group of people around sang the birthday song.The singing formed a huge wave in the enclosed space, and swept over like the wind. Almost instantly, everyone in the entire cafeteria stood up and looked over.The singing became louder and louder, and everyone seemed to be aroused by the singing. Some people began to whistle, some people patted the table, and even Du Xuan's classmates began to ask Du Xuan to treat them.

Sitting there, Du Xuan heard so many people singing birthday song to him for the first time in his life. He saw many acquaintances gathered around him, someone put a can of Coke on his desk, and a friend took out a preparation For a good gift, a girl squeezed over and said, "Happy birthday to Du Xuan", and he heard Lin Tingan say in the deafening singing: "Happy birthday, happy every day of my life."

Du Xuan took a bite of the cream for a small cake, and basically divided up the rest, even Li Tianyou got a small piece, but he still put down a gift, which was a long and thin piece of paper The box, depending on the size, should be a pen.Du Xuan smiled and put the box into Lin Tingan's coat pocket while Li Tianyou wasn't paying attention. He blinked and whispered, "You can take it to Zheng Ziyan."

Zheng Ziyan arrived late and only got a little cake crumbs. He said dejectedly, "I just asked a physics question, and I missed it!"

Du Xuan has never had such a lively birthday, nor has she had such a happy birthday.

Lin Ting'an tossed half of the school's students to celebrate Du Xuan's birthday.Du Xuan has always been the teacher's darling, plus he is a senior in high school, Lin Ting'an killed Du Xuan again without knowing it, and made all his mistakes by himself.So Du Xuan rushed back to class after being reprimanded.But Lin Tingan was first criticized by the head teacher, and then sent to the Moral Education Office to be scolded for another hour. He was delayed for two classes, and sat in the office to write the inspection in the third class.

But these are not important, Lin Tingan thought while writing, the most important thing is that Du Xuan is happy.Writing inspections is completely a skilled job, which is much easier than writing essays.
