After training uninterruptedly in the morning, Lin Xia finished training for the last game in the training room in the afternoon, exited the game and turned off the computer.

Haozi next door pulled back the headset and asked, "Lin Xia, where are you going?"

Lin Xia picked up the schoolbag from the table next door and straddled her shoulders: "I took a day off today, and I won't be back until tomorrow."

Haozi asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Xia smiled: "There is something at home that needs to be resolved at home."

Knowing that it was a private matter, Haozi raised his hand and said, "That's fine, see you tomorrow."

Lin Xia waved to Haozi and walked out of the training room.

Zhao Cheng was thinking of meeting Lin Xia in the replay of the youth training room, and blocked Lin Xia's way with a document in his hand: "Where are you going?"

Lin Xia said: "I asked the captain for leave, and he approved it."

Zhao Cheng smiled: "You have already asked for leave with He Chen, so why don't I let you go? Why don't you finish this training match first and leave?"

Lin Xia shook her head: "He Chen said that he will help me recover when he comes back tomorrow."

Zhao Cheng: "..."

Lin Xia raised her eyebrows and said, "Coach, I'll go first."

As soon as she stepped out of the gate of the YUW building, Lin Xia received a message from Li Qing.

Aunt Li: Xiao Xia, are you back?

The car Lin Xia called earlier was already at the door, and he replied after getting in the car: "It's already on the way."

An hour later, Lin Xia arrived home. As soon as he arrived at the door, he heard a loud noise coming from inside, but it soon disappeared. After Lin Xia pressed the password, he opened the door. Smell the aroma of food.

Lin Xia took another step back and didn't enter the door.

At the corner of the porch: "Are you here? Why don't you come in?"

"Mom, don't push me, tell Dad to go and have a look."

"I hear footsteps, I count to three, three, two..."

The light suddenly turned on, Lin Xia leaned against the entrance and looked at the three He family members with a smile in his eyes: "I'm back."

He Hui didn't do anything else, and sprayed small fireworks on Lin Xia's head directly. He's father followed up and opened a big firework. He's mother took the birthday crown and put it on Lin Xia's head. The three of them applauded together: "Birthday! Happy, welcome home."

Lin Xia laughed, and clapped her hands with a little bewilderment: "Thank you."

Li Qing touched Lin Xia's head lightly, and smiled softly: "Go in and wash your hands first, and then you can eat."

He Hui grabbed Lin Xia's shoulders and walked towards the living room, asking in a low voice, "How's the past half a month going?"

Lin Xiami squinted her eyes and replied, "Not bad."

He Hui was a little startled: "It seems that you are quite used to the life of a professional player?"

"Actually, it's not as scary as you think. It's just training every day." Lin Xia sat on the sofa and picked up the crown on his head.

Holding the teacup, Father He also sat on the sofa and asked, "What are you training for?"

Lin Xia looked at Father He and smiled: "No, He Hui asked me how the exchange was going, and I told him it was pretty good, participating more can exercise myself."

Father He nodded: "It will be helpful to know more people and communicate with each other after going to university."

When Li Qing heard them discussing in the kitchen, she came out with a spatula and asked, "Which school did the classmates around you apply for? Is there anyone who applied for the same one as you? If so, you can familiarize yourself with it in the future." You can be a companion at school."

Lin Xia choked silently: "I don't know very well, they seem to have pretty good grades."

He Hui sniffed his nose and frowned: "Mom, the food seems to be mushy."

The dishes were not mushy, so Li Qing was rescued quickly, put the dishes on the table one after another, and shouted to the living room: "Come and eat."

Father He took a bottle of wine and sat down. After opening the wine, he took the glass in front of Lin Xia and poured a small glass of wine. Li Qing took a look and said nothing. He Hui silently handed the glass to Father He. The next time Father He poured the wine in, He Hui looked at the small glass of wine in front of him and started laughing.

Li Qing scolded Father He, Father He waved his hand and said, "I'm happy today, I'll be fine if I drink a little."

Father He raised his glass, followed by Li Qing and He Hui. Lin Xia picked up the glass and clinked glasses with them. Father He smiled and said, "We wish Xiao Xia a happy birthday. It's time to be responsible for yourself. Although the road ahead is unknown, no matter you encounter setbacks or bifurcations in life, I still hope that you will not give up and follow your heart."

Li Qing patted Father He lightly: "Why does your congratulations look so much like a leader's speech?"

He Hui laughed mercilessly.

Li Qing said gently: "Aunt Li wishes all the dreams in your heart come true, happiness and health, and happy birthday."

Lin Xia responded with a smile: "Thank you Uncle He and Aunt Li."

After a meal, Li Qing was still not the same as before. She was busy picking up vegetables for Lin Xia, filled the rice bowl, and put it into the soup bowl. This meal was the most that Lin Xia had eaten in the past half a month The most full ever.

After Lin Xia hiccupped, she heard Li Qing say, "Only after my birthday and cake tonight can I go back to my room to sleep."

He Hui hiccupped and looked at Lin Xia in shock: "Your birthday, you can handle the cake."

After dinner, the couple of the He family entered the room and came out with an exquisitely packaged gift box. Even though Lin Xia had been in this house for six years, her birthday was still unnatural. Seeing them come out with gifts, she raised her hand and touched her nose.

Li Qing said with a smile: "Xiao Xia, this is a grown-up gift from me and Uncle He, I don't know if you like it or not."

Lin Xia took the gift with both hands and said seriously: "I like whatever you give me."

He Hui hummed a ditty and went to Lin Xia's side and stuffed a gift into Lin Xia's arms: "Happy birthday, your share will be here in two weeks."

Lin Xia smiled and said, "Thank you, but what is the date in two weeks?"

He Hui punched Lin Xia: "Anyway, you just remember two weeks later."

Lin Xia said, "Have you reminded others of your birthday like this?"

Li Qing patted He Hui's head with a smile, Father He laughed boldly, He Hui looked at Lin Xia pretending to be threatening, the protagonist of today's birthday took all of this into his eyes.

My birthday is no different from the birthdays of the past six years. It is still the same warm, homely, and the same people, as long as everyone in Lin Xia's heart is there.

Li Qing originally wanted to come out with a cake at 12 o'clock to celebrate, but Lin Xia thought they would have to get up early tomorrow to go to work and refused, so she took the cake out of the refrigerator after ten o'clock, lit candles, and the family of four sang birthday Song, Lin Xia made his first adult birthday wish under the dim candle light.

Lin Xia was in charge of dividing the cake. Li Qing used a fork to divide more than half of the cake held by He's father into He Hui's plate: "If you drink alcohol for dinner, don't eat so many sweets."

Father He's expression was a little aggrieved, and He Hui couldn't explain what to say when he saw that there was half an extra cake on the plate for no reason and sighed: "I..."

Li Qing glanced at He Hui, and He Hui immediately changed his mouth: "I like to eat cakes."

Father He was drunk, and sent a red envelope on WeChat. He swayed and patted Lin Xia on the shoulder to say happy birthday. Finally, Li Qing drove him into the room to rest.

Li Qing put the leftover cake on the table into the refrigerator, came out of the kitchen and ran into Lin Xia standing at the door, smiled and walked to Lin Xia's side, hugged Lin Xia and said softly: "Xiao Xia happy birthday, happy birthday .”

From the six years when Ai Xia adopted him, Ai Xia would hug him on his birthday every year. After Ai Xia passed away, Li Qing helped him celebrate his birthday, and Li Qing would also hug him.

Lin Xia gently hugged back: "Thank you, Aunt Li."

"Auntie Ai will be happy knowing that you are an adult. She used to tell me that she wanted to see Lin Xia's appearance when she grew up. She would be very pleased to see you so good in the sky." Li Qing let go Lin Xia's eyes turned red, "You have grown up very well. Ai Xia told me before that Lin Xia was so skinny when she was a child, what should I do when she grows up, but our Xiao Xia is tall and handsome now, and there will definitely be many more in the future. Girls like it."

"Of course, if I am so good, many people will like me." Lin Xia bared her canine teeth, "There is no one who doesn't like me."

"I'm an adult, but I'm still a kid." Li Qing looked up at Lin Xia with complicated eyes, "Do you need me to accompany you to the law firm tomorrow?"

Lin Xia shook her head: "No, I can go by myself tomorrow, Li Qing will really be an adult tomorrow."

Li Qing sighed lightly: "If anything goes wrong tomorrow, you want to call me. I'll call you Uncle He. Your Uncle He's body can also scare people."

Lin Xia agreed: "Don't worry, Aunt Li, I won't suffer from being so smart."

It's getting late, Li Qing asked Lin Xia to go back to her room to rest early.

Not long after Lin Xia entered the room, He Hui sneaked in with the wine that his father had kept privately for many years.

"You are very courageous." Lin Xia looked at the wine that He Hui was holding in his hand and usually hid it in the wine cabinet, "Uncle He found out that you are really going to be kicked out."

"Shh, keep your voice down." He Hui opened the wine with a bang, "Anyway, my dad didn't sneak a drink, and he didn't know how much he drank. He wouldn't notice if such a small bottle was missing."

He Hui filled a glass of wine for Lin Xia, looked at his phone: "It's still half an hour until your birthday, I'll be the first person to say happy birthday to you."

Lin Xia took a sip of the drink, which was not as strong as expected, and took another sip: "You came here to say happy birthday to me?"

He Hui took it for granted and patted his chest: "Otherwise? My brother's first happy birthday as an adult is of course my brother."

Lin Xia sat on the ground lazily leaning against the bed: "Why do I think you are not?"

He Hui drank half a glass of wine, and after drinking it, he was still unsatisfied. He smacked his mouth, and then poured another half glass: "This wine is quite delicious. Do you remember that we drank secretly when we were young? It was still white wine."

Lin Xia laughed: "I lied to you to drink it. I lied to you that it was boiled water, and you threw up after drinking it."

"It was so hot that I cried." He Hui felt nostalgic, "I wanted to fight you, but I couldn't beat you."

Lin Xia said: "You can't beat it now."

He Hui denied: "I respect the elders, respecting you is my elder brother, so I don't care about you like you. If I were someone else, I wouldn't have such a good temper."

Lin Xia squinted and patted He Hui's shoulder, raised his glass and said, "Then thank you brother first."

He Hui and Lin Xia clinked glasses: "You're welcome, brother, I don't care about you."

Lin Xia: "..." He felt that He Hui was a little drunk, but he also seemed a little drunk.

Lin Xia and He Hui had been chatting intermittently about a lot of things about their childhood, they drank up a bottle of wine in less than half an hour, and He Hui leaned against the bed with his head up and his eyes half open, seemingly drunk but not drunk.

Lin Xia's cell phone rang, with the smell of alcohol on his brain, he was stunned for more than ten seconds before he realized it, and picked up the call without seeing the call record.

"Hello? Who...is that?" Lin Xia spoke vaguely.

He Chen chuckled: "Have you been drinking?"

Lin Xia replied obediently and honestly: "Well, I drank a little, just a little, it was all...He Hui poured me a drink."

He Hui next door subconsciously retorted: "Nonsense, obviously you poured it yourself."

He Chen heard that someone next to Lin Xia asked, "Is there someone next door?"

"No one, it's just my brother." Lin Xia hiccupped.

The other end of the phone didn't speak for a while, Lin Xia waited a little impatiently: "Why don't you speak anymore?"

"Happy birthday."

Lin Xia froze for a moment, looked up at the clock on the table, the second hand had just passed 12, he smiled silly: "Thank you uncle."

This is the first time in six years that Lin Xia's birthday has been guarded and said happy birthday. Now Lin Xia's mood is very delicate, there is a sticky feeling of wanting to eat honey, and the sweetness is immersed in his heart.

"Thank you, so I can't say hello? Another name?" He Chen leaned against the wall of the corridor.

"Thank you Brother Chen."

"It turns out that you are so obedient after drinking, and I will do whatever I say." He Chen smiled in a low voice, "Then let's do this first, and we will talk about it when you come back tomorrow."

"Good night."

Lin Xia touched her face, which was a little hot, and said softly, "Okay, good night."

He Chen hung up the phone, Lin Xia was still holding the phone blankly, Lin Xia felt that he was very drunk, why was his face so hot, and why his heart was beating so fast.

He Hui moved beside him, looked at his phone at 3:[-], and shouted to Lin Xia, "Happy birthday, although it's been [-] minutes, I'm still the first."

Seeing that Lin Xia didn't respond, He Hui patted him: "I... just heard you call someone brother? When did you have an extra brother?"

Lin Xia murmured: "Anyway, there are, you don't care about me! And you are not the first person to tell me happy birthday, someone is more punctual than you."

More punctual than anyone else.
