After the gala, the No. [-] Middle School project won the Best Creative Award and the second prize in the competition, and Cheng Tiao and Sun Gaozhuang, who were the leading actors, became popular in the city, and even a reporter from the city TV station came to interview them.

Bu Chengtiao refused on the pretext that he didn't want to delay his studies because of interference. After all, being famous as a master of women's clothing doesn't suit his style of painting.

Time passed quickly, and it was mid-November in a blink of an eye. Apart from the pressure of the previous mid-term exams, there was another thing that made Cheng Tiao feel more anxious, and that was November No. 20, Lin Jian's birthday.

Cheng Tiao turned on his phone again, cut off the card he usually used, and replaced it with a bank card ending in 9628, and he clicked to check the balance.

After looking at the remaining balance of 370 in Kari, he once again felt what is called angina.

The money stored in this card was all saved by himself, and it was not mixed with any red envelopes or lucky money.

A large sum of money was earned from the sale of the chair patent he engaged in at the beginning, plus the championship bonuses he won in previous competitions, it took several years to get together a small [-] yuan, but he met such a What a shame, once back to before liberation.

For Lin Jian's birthday, Cheng Tiao wanted to use his own money more, but he couldn't help but sigh when he saw the only 370 yuan left. If he ordered a cake, he would eat a barbecue at a roadside stall. Might not be enough.

"Is this what it's like to be poor?" He sighed with some emotion.

Ms. Lin, who happened to bring fruit into the room, couldn't help but frowned slightly when she heard this, she gently put the fruit plate on the table and complained in a low voice: "I just said that your father is too stingy with the money. Now, you boys have to buy clothes and shoes, three thousand a month is not enough. I said before that I would give you five thousand a month, but he insisted that boys should be poor."

As she said that, Ms. Lin still looked at his cheek seriously, and then felt distressed, "It seems to be a little thinner."

Cheng Tiao: "..."

Even if he ordered takeout every three to five times, he only spent [-] yuan a month, and he would come back to live for two days on weekends to improve the food. The living expenses given by Mr. Cheng are completely sufficient.

In addition, his grandma and uncle are worried that he will not be able to eat well in other places, so they will pay him an extra living allowance every month, so for now, he is receiving three living expenses every month.

"It's nothing like that, Auntie, I have enough money." Cheng Tiao quickly explained.

When Ms. Lin put the toothpick on the fruit plate, she happened to see Cheng Tiao's remaining balance, so she immediately took out her mobile phone, "It's still half a month, and there is only 300 yuan left, how can you spend it? Tell auntie quietly, don't eat instant noodles secretly."

Cheng Tiao frantically pressed the screen off, "No need, Auntie, really no need, I really have enough money!"

"Alipay received [-] yuan!"

Cheng Tiao: "..."

……

After personally sending Ms. Lin to the door, Cheng Tiao remembered to close the door this time. After closing the door, he raised his hand and slapped himself lightly, then leaned against the door panel and sighed helplessly.

[May I ask what gift to give for your partner's birthday that is more memorable, I don't have much money in hand]

After posting the post, Cheng Tiao squatted for more than half an hour and only got six comments, three of which were showing off his relationship, and the remaining three were Taobao advertisements.

It’s fine if their products fit his aesthetics, but when he clicks on it, it will be in rainbow capital letters, “My girlfriend cried after receiving this gift”, and then there is a photo of a girl covering her mouth.

He originally wanted to learn what gift could make people so moved, but when he clicked on the video, it turned out to be just a starry sky instrument that looked ugly and played birthday songs.And the birthday song is the same type as the musical candle that will bloom. He feels that he can make a similar type that is ten times better than this thing with his eyes closed.

So here comes the question, whose girlfriend has such a low tear point?It is estimated that I have to go to the hospital to have a look, maybe the lacrimal duct is blocked.

After waiting quietly for another 10 minutes, Cheng Tiao finally waited for another reply.

[Passerby A]: Excuse me, is the host a man or a woman?

[Pikachu] replied to [Passerby A]: I am a man.

[Passerby A] Reply to [Pikachu]: Stupid thing, I have no money to talk about Nima's love!You can still find someone like a hanger, is this world crazy!

Cheng Tiao: "..."

If it hadn't been for being taught the code of conduct not to reveal money since childhood, Cheng Tiaozhenjill would have taken a screenshot of his savings and pasted it on the other person's face. He is under [-] this year and already has enough down payment for the bustling city center of Province A, okay? , even if they can't compare to those winners in life, at least they can't be regarded as hanging silk!

Resisting the desire to give the other party a set of quality triples, he closed the post with a blank expression.

But for a while, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and when he took a step back, the more he thought about it, the more he suffered.

So 5 minutes later, he turned on the phone again, edited a message and sent it out.

[Pikachu] Reply to [Passerby A]: That's right, I haven't graduated from high school, but my partner doesn't mind, after all, I'm relying on a face to eat.I just gave her a gift box of rose soap for 29 yuan and [-] free shipping on Taobao. She was so moved that she cried on the spot and gave me a watch as a gift in return, but I don’t think it looks as good as the one I bought last year.

[Pikachu]: [A photo showing the watch and raising the middle finger]

The watch in Cheng Tiao's hand belonged to Richard Mille, and it was given to him by the magic stick at that time, saying it was a gift for his godson, and he also asked him to cover the scar on his wrist by the way.

He didn't know the price of this watch before, so he accepted it with peace of mind. After searching the Internet, he found that it was more than 80 pieces.At that time, he was so scared that he immediately wanted to return it to someone, but he was blocked by the other party who said, "It doesn't matter, anyway, it is the money you earned from your own father".

After replying to the post, Cheng Tiao felt refreshed a lot.

Just when he was about to continue searching for related posts, Lin Jian initiated a video call with him, which made him forget all the previous shit in an instant.

After jumping onto the bed and sitting on the head of the bed, Cheng Tiao held the rogue rabbit that he brought home with him every week in his arms, and carefully combed his hair in front of the black screen before clicking on and connecting to the video.

"Fuck!" As soon as he clicked on the video, Cheng Tiao was so frightened by the dead mouse that filled the whole screen that he almost fainted on the spot, and he subconsciously threw the phone out.

Rats aren't scary, but seeing a dead rat in the excitement of meeting your boyfriend is.

I am full of satisfaction to prepare a birthday present for you, but you dare to scare me with a dead mouse?Cheng Tiao felt that the anger in his chest was about to burst out of his throat.

Holding the doll tightly and taking a deep breath for a while, he bent down and picked up the phone on the bed. He was relieved that the camera at this moment was finally his boyfriend's handsome face, not the dead mouse.

Cheng Tiao looked at his sweaty boyfriend with some distress, and he said softly, "Lin Jian, do you think I won't beat you to death after I get one more title?"

Lin Jian sighed helplessly, "Do you believe me when I say I didn't do it on purpose?"

Cheng Tiao smiled slightly, "Do you think I wouldn't hit you if you didn't do it on purpose?"

Lin Jian was silent for two seconds, feeling that the words made sense, but he still couldn't help defending himself, "I really didn't mean it, the mouse just pretended to be dead, I wanted to show you that I caught him, didn't you?" Thinking of him jumping up suddenly. So I had to give him a kick, and you took the video by such a coincidence."

"How come it's still my fault?" Cheng Tiao made him laugh angrily.

Lin Jian, who was eager to survive, shook his head quickly, "No, it's my fault!"

Only then did Cheng Tiao raise the corners of his mouth in satisfaction, but soon he frowned again and asked in doubt: "Why are there rats in our dormitory?"

Lin Jian swept the mouse into the dustpan with a broom, and smiled helplessly: "It's not from our dormitory, it's from the next door. It came along the water pipe on the balcony. Yigaoshu is bold, thanks to the fact that I'm still in the dormitory." Well, it will be miserable if we find out later."

The thought of rats in his dormitory made Cheng Tiao's scalp tingle, and he raised his chin at Lin Jian, "Remember to throw away the shoes that stepped on the rats."

"Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll go buy new brooms and dustpans then." Lin Jian said with a smile, probably they really scared Xiu'er enough just now.

After changing his shoes, he left the dormitory and closed the door, then walked slowly to the trash can at the end of the dormitory corridor with his mobile phone, put the bucket and broom into the bucket in front of Cheng Tiao, and then put the trash The big bag of the barrel is brought out for packing.

Cheng Tiao asked a little strangely: "Isn't the bucket still full?"

Lin Jian strode downstairs with a garbage bag in her hand, "I'm afraid I'll be shocked when aunt or other people come over."

After running to the first floor, he put the garbage bag in the empty trolley and told the story to the dormitory manager who was drying clothes, signaling that there were dead mice in the garbage bag.

The auntie of the dormitory manager responded, and then cursed: "It must be another dormitory boy who doesn't pay attention to hygiene. Last time I checked a dormitory in the third year of high school, two cockroaches fell out of a student's pillow... "

Cheng Tiao silently turned off the volume on his phone. He didn't want to hear such horror stories at all, and decided to buy a few cockroach houses when he returned to the dormitory this week, and do a big cleaning by the way.

Lin Jian carefully washed her hands several times with the help of the aunt's laundry sink, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

He whispered to Cheng Tiao: "Actually, I was scared to death when I saw that mouse just now, but I thought that if I didn't catch it this time, it would be okay if it jumped out sometime and scared you, so I had to close my eyes. Push it out."

"It's really hard work for you." Cheng Tiao smiled lightly.

After Lin Jian borrowed two pieces of paper from the aunt to wipe off the water drops on her hands, she picked up her mobile phone and walked outside the gate of the dormitory.

Taking advantage of no one around, he said a little embarrassedly: "I dreamed about you last night, and that dream was very exciting."

Cheng Tiao suddenly felt a little dry in his throat. After he glanced at the clothes drying on the balcony, he turned his face away and coughed in embarrassment, "I also dreamed about you yesterday."

"I actually dreamed that you were playing basketball with Yingmu Huadao, and I was really used to it by them. Hey, but your tomahawk dunk last night was really cool. When I got up, I was bleeding all over with excitement. Khan, giant..."

Cheng Tiao didn't want to listen to the following content, and he walked to the desk in a vicissitudes of life and ate several pieces of fruit in a row.

He began to feel that those heartfelt gifts might be far inferior to a pair of sneakers, a jersey or an NBA ticket in the eyes of the other party.

"Hey, Xiu'er, where are you? Why can't I see you? Are you stuck?" Lin Jian was talking happily when he found Cheng Tiao's camera was facing the ceiling of his room.

The author has something to say: Tiao Tiao: Sure enough, it is really exciting and a dream
