Jigsaw puzzle

On the day before Li Ran's birthday, when he had just finished class and was about to take Qi Xin to dinner, the front desk of the dance studio received a courier package with the addressee written on it: Bitch.

Li Ran looked at the recipient and thought for a while, then hid the box in the corner of the classroom. After making sure that all the parents of the students had left, he silently found the scissors and cut the box open.

Fortunately, there was nothing too frightening in the box, just an urn neatly placed.

Li Ran raised his eyebrows, pretending to be calm, he threw the square box directly into the trash can downstairs, without even looking back.

"Where to eat?" Qi Xin poked her head out from the edge of the wall quietly. She saw that Li Ran's expression was gloomy, and he spoke a little more carefully than usual.

"Ah, let's go home to eat today." Seeing Qi Xin standing beside him, Li Ran squeezed out a smile, pretending nothing happened, "Auntie made a lot of delicious food today! I also ordered ice cream cake! "

Qi Xin leaned out, with a heavy schoolbag on her back, she was confused and asked Li Ran: "Is it... those people on the Internet bullied you?"

"Yes," Li Ran patted Qi Xin on the shoulder, "But it's okay, they won't crawl out of the Internet to beat me up, there's nothing to worry about."

In fact, Li Ran didn't even believe what he said, not to mention that Qi Xin was so smart, he didn't expect to convince her.

"Haven't you been bullied by others before? You're not doing well now," Li Ran squatted down/stood down, making eye contact with Qi Xin, "That wave of people has nothing to fear, they're just bluffing, you should know it best!"

Qi Xin shook her head, still very worried: "At that time, I had you to help me."

Li Ran smiled: "Hey, don't worry, your brother Aran is so popular, there are plenty of people who help me."

"So, you still have to keep it a secret from Han Yicheng?"

"Even if he knows, it won't be of much help." Li Ran pulled Qi Xin out, and before going out, he looked around for fear that there might be out-of-control fans lurking around, "We still, don't pull him for now." Into the water."

Qi Xin nodded half understanding, and followed Li Ran quietly along the way, unable to tell what she was thinking.It wasn't until she was almost at Li Ran's house that she took out a small box from her pocket.

Li Ran narrowed his eyes with a smile: "Really? Can I receive gifts now?"

Qi Xin nodded, still a little shy, put the gift into Li Ran's hand, and quickly ran to the anti-theft door and knocked on the door, Zhang Lingyu squeezed in as soon as it opened.

"Oh, slow down," Zhang Lingyu was taken aback by Qi Xin, "What are you doing in such a hurry, little girl?"

Li Ran opened the box and saw that it was a pair of knee pads. He quickly took it out and showed it to Zhang Lingyu: "I'm shy after giving the gift!"

Zhang Lingyu also smiled: "This little girl, why does she look like Xiao Han?"

Li Ran's family doesn't have too many fancy innovations for birthdays. Like many traditional petty citizens, noodles and cakes are enough.Zhang Lingyu made three kinds of marinated ingredients, and forced everyone to eat three big bowls. After eating, the four of them could only lie on the sofa.

Li Weiguo patted his stomach, stood up and burped, which made Qi Xin laugh out loud, "I have to go for a walk," Li Weiguo said, taking his coat from the hanger next to him and putting it on, "I'm old now, But I can’t help but eat like this.”

Zhang Lingyu stood up and wanted to go out with Li Weiguo.Ever since Li Weiguo had an accident last time, Zhang Lingyu was not at ease to follow him wherever he went.

"Don't wash the dishes today," she said to Li Ran, "It's your birthday anyway, so wait until I come back to do the washing."

Before Li Ran could answer, Qi Xin started to clean up the dishes on the table first.

"I'll do it." She took the initiative to run to the kitchen with a large stack of bowls.

Seeing the situation, Li Ran hurriedly followed her to the back kitchen.However, what Li Ran didn't expect was that Qi Xin was quite quick at work. Seeing that she usually followed Qi Dongqing, she did a lot of housework.

"It's quite neat." Seeing that Qi Xin was so active, he didn't stop him anymore, instead he handed a rag to the side and arranged the dishes to fight her.

Li Ran stood for a while, feeling bored, and rolled his eyes: "Sister, do you know what Han Yicheng wants to give me? I haven't found it after searching for several days, and he said he will give it to me on time tonight! No ...Is it hidden with you?"

"I don't know." Qi Xin said honestly, "Didn't you peek at the things in his room?"

Asked this, Li Ran felt guilty.Before going to work this morning, he really sneaked into Han Yicheng's bedroom and rummaged through the paper bags that looked like gifts.

It's a pity that the paper bag is really just a paper bag, and the contents inside have long since disappeared.

"Stop talking about that," Li Ran suddenly changed the subject, "Will it be boring if you go to the dance room with me tomorrow? How about letting sister Chen Xian take you out to play?"

Qi Xin shook her head firmly: "I want to accompany you."

"Hey, you're so loyal!" Li Ran smiled, "Let's go out with Chen Xian, we'll find a place to have dinner together in the evening, it's useless for you to accompany me during the day, I still have to work."

Qi Xin didn't speak this time, she seemed a little hesitant.Stack the dishes one on top of the other and put them back in the cupboard.

Taking advantage of her hesitation, Li Ran quickly snapped his fingers: "That's it, it's my birthday today, so you have to listen to me~"

After being messed with by the courier urn today, Li Ran is not sure if anything else will happen in the future, so it is relatively safe for Qi Xin not to go there for the next two days.

No matter how calm Li Ran was on the surface, this kind of thing happened on his birthday, but he was still a little worried.He couldn't hold it back, and searched the Internet for news related to Duan Chenyi, and found that although the popularity of this matter was declining, the fans who left disputes became more and more extreme.

Most of the promised fan army has dissipated. After attacking Duan Chenyi, the team returned to the court and continued to empty bottles of Amway's new works.On the contrary, many fans of Duan Chenyi began to focus on Li Ran, thinking that he was a liar hired by the promise company to smear Duan Chenyi.

Many of the remarks made Li Ran feel extremely absurd. The more he watched, the more angry he became, and finally called Yu.

"Tell me, should I use the number of the studio to clarify?"

"Don't," Xiao Yu immediately stopped Li Ran's naive thoughts, "They don't care about the truth, they just deceive each other on their own grounds. If you jump out at this time, it's no different from jumping in front of a machine gun with your bare butt."

Li Ran hangs up the phone depressed. The more he thinks about it, the more disgusting he becomes. It's like eating a fly. It's full of stamina, and it's really irritating.

Now I have started to receive malicious emails, what if I come to my door to make trouble in two days and affect the business?

At this time, his cell phone rang again, and it was Han Yicheng who sent him a WeChat message.

-can you answer the phone?

Li Ran clicked on the camera and took a selfie of himself lying on the bed.Half a minute later, Han Yicheng made a voice call to him.

"Happy birthday."

Han Yicheng's calm voice, to Li Ran at this time, was like a sweet Chinese herbal medicine, which relieved his anger at once.He happily rolled several times on the bed, stretched his body, and then said into the receiver: "Hee hee."

After Li Ran finished speaking, he was stunned again, and couldn't stop laughing secretly.He originally wanted to thank him, but he didn't know why he was so happy all of a sudden. He didn't say the word "thank you", but turned into a snicker.

Han Yicheng didn't understand why Li Ran was so silly, but when he heard that Li Ran was happy, he also felt relieved.

Just now Cheng Yi showed him how the rumors and rumors on the Internet maliciously attacked Li Ran.

"Did something happen?" Han Yicheng asked.

Hearing his question, Li Ran felt a little better, guessing that Han Yicheng probably caught the wind from the Internet.This person is really not good at concealing, even such a tentative question is naive and dull.

"A lot of things have happened, and I don't know where to start with you." Li Ran gave a sloppy look, deliberately ambiguous, "Now, I wish time would go faster and let you come back to accompany me." Me, do you believe that I can chat with you for three days and three nights?"

Although Han Yicheng doesn't know how to behave in the world, he understands reason.When he saw the overwhelming malicious news, compared to his distress for Li Ran, his jealousy was only a little bit like a sesame seed.

Hearing that Li Ran was in a good mood, he breathed a sigh of relief, and only thought about how to change the ticket later so that he could go back two days earlier.

"Where's my gift? Have you forgotten?" Li Ran changed the subject and asked Han Yicheng solemnly, "If you forget, you have to watch ten horror movies with me."

"In the bag."

"Huh? In what bag?"

Han Yicheng explained: "It's the backpack you always carry, with the iron chain on it."

Li Ran let out an ah, jumped up hurriedly and went to the door to get his backpack.He was like a headless chicken before, even searching through Han Yicheng's bedroom, never expecting that the most dangerous place is actually the safest place.Before Han Yicheng left, he actually put the gift in his bag.

"How do you know that I won't find out in advance?" Li Ran turned out a small box from his inner pocket and asked Han Yicheng in surprise.

Han Yicheng: "Because your bag is messy."

Li Ran opened the box, and just about to go back, he was distracted by the contents inside, so he shut his mouth obediently.

It was a leather bracelet with a silver chain hanging beside it, which was a bit like Li Ran's usual dressing style.He looked carefully and found that there were many fragments of jewelry pendants hanging on the silver chain, each of which was very creative.

There is also a dark blue lapis lazuli among them, Li Ran can tell at a glance that it is exactly the same as the lapis lazuli bracelet he gave Han Yicheng.

"You can't be..." Li Ran suddenly thought of the pile of paper bags in Han Yicheng's room, "You bought a lot of things and put them together on this chain, right?"

Han Yicheng didn't deny it, and his tone revealed nervousness: "Do you like it?"

Li Ran's heart suddenly softened, and then warmed up.

"I like it, I really like it!"

"I'm stupid, I don't know what looks good," Han Yicheng spoke a little fast, obviously not yet completely out of the worry, "I think everything is good, but I can't pick it out..."

Li Ran looked at this slightly clumsy gift, and felt that his nose was a little acidic. He was not such a hypocritical person, and would cry because of such things.

But Han Yicheng was too able to poke at his weakness. He felt that Han Yicheng was like a confused child, putting everything together and putting together all the things he liked, and he was nervous for fear that he would not like it.

He also thought Han Yicheng was a little funny, like when they were playing games together, Han Yicheng was always keen to let the characters collect rare raw materials all over the world, and then went to NPCs to forge high-level weapons, and then let Li Ran use them.

"Hey, it's so annoying," Li Ran complained, "You almost made me cry."

Li Ran put the ring on his hand and looked at it over and over again, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

He felt like some important person, although he was the only one who was devoted to him, but he could create the feeling of being loved by the whole world.

He waited for Han Yicheng to say something over there, but the other end of the phone remained silent, until Li Ran was about to speak, Han Yicheng seemed to make up his mind, and uttered a sentence word by word.

"I, can, use, don't, method, make, you, make, cry."

Probably because Han Yicheng's sarcasm was too blunt, Li Ran was stunned for a long time before he understood that this person was learning to tell dirty jokes by himself.

He was silent for a few seconds before bursting into earth-shattering laughter.

"LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL!"

Han Yicheng on the other side of the phone was ashamed and angry, and hung up the phone with a "snap" and threw the phone aside.

However, when Li Ran sent another voice message, Han Yicheng still blushed and clicked to listen.

"Didn't you say you made me cry? Why did you hang up the phone? I left him alone in the quilt and looked forward to it~"

Li Ran pinched his throat, and his voice was extremely "cheap".But such a joke really made Han Yicheng startled, he hurriedly put the phone aside again, and ran to the bathroom to take a cold shower.

Back here, after Li Ran sent the message, he was also in a very excited state.He clicked on the screen for a long time before realizing that he was booking a plane ticket.

Li Ran was taken aback by himself, he quickly exited the page, took several deep breaths to force himself to calm down.

I might really be going crazy, he thought.
