Is the wife married?

Why are you back?

Wen Ning stood there in a daze, belatedly thinking of this question.

In a hurry along the way, she was full of thoughts about going back before dark, at least in time for dinner, but she ignored why she wanted to come back.

Dazed, a large blank.

The moment she saw the post, her body memory seemed to be integrated into her instincts, and she was extremely excited, but followed by regret and guilt. She even forgot Gu Chixi's birthday—the day she used to be the happiest and most cherished.

But that was once.

today……

why?

Why do you want to come back?Didn't you always think that Gu Chixi was dead?What about birthdays?She didn't care about it long ago, otherwise she wouldn't forget this day.People don't care, do you still care about birthdays?

Wen Ning bit her lip.

She can lie to others, but she can't lie to herself. If she really doesn't care, she won't leave her family and run back in a flash of enthusiasm.

Even if she said she remembered her birthday now, she came back in a hurry, didn't prepare anything, and just said happy birthday dryly, it didn't make sense.

Wen Ning couldn't find a reason, so she said in a hurry: "Oh, I'm not used to staying in the country, and I have nothing to do at home, so I came back early..."

After I finished speaking, I felt that it was a poor excuse.

She lowered her eyes guiltily.

Gu Chixi's eyes dimmed, and a smile froze on his lips.

Inexplicably embarrassing.

Wen Ning raised her head again and looked at her: "Are you going out?"

"...Yeah." Gu Chixi nodded, "Go to my mother."

She thought that Wen Ning would not come back today, so she promised her eldest sister to have dinner in the evening.In front of Wen Ning, she is the only child whose parents divorced. It's a big holiday, so it's not good to talk about having dinner with friends.

If there is no promise, there is still room for changing one's mind, but it is very difficult to change things that have been promised. Besides, she is not close to the eldest sister, so she has to ask someone to do things.

Gotta go tonight anyway.

Only in this way, they missed the time to spend time with each other again.

Wen Ning was a little surprised, and wanted to ask if she said she wouldn't go home, but held back, "Oh."

"What time will you be back?"

"I'll try to get it as early as possible, about eight o'clock."

"it is good."

Gu Chixi looked at his watch, "I'm leaving first."

The scene is exactly the same, morning and evening, but the two people are completely reversed.Wen Ning watched Gu Chixi go out, walked to the window, and pulled the curtain to look out.

The silver sports car flies away...

After a long time, Wen Ning straightened up and took a step back, only to realize that she hadn't changed into her slippers and her bag was still in the car.

She went out again, came in with her bag, and changed her shoes. She looked up at the empty room, and at the place where Gu Chixi was standing just now. She had never realized that the house was so deserted, and felt an unprecedented loneliness.

Running all the way for more than two hours seemed like a joke.

Wen Ning regretted it.

If you want to forget, forget it completely, never remember it, if you want to remember it, you will always remember it, and never leave.

Why didn't she think of it sooner?What's the use of coming back now?No gifts, no blessings, not even a decent dinner to prepare.

Wen Ning slumped on the sofa and closed her eyes.

It was getting dark, and the manor was lit with lights.

Although it was a family reunion festival, only a family of three lived in the huge garden, which was really empty and deserted.Since Gu Jinxian had a child and moved out of the main house, the festive atmosphere was no longer important to her.

After confirming that Gu Chixi was coming, she asked the servants to set up the open-air restaurant early on and chose the ingredients herself.

"Miko, Joe, today is my aunt's birthday, I will say happy birthday to my aunt later, you know?"

"I know~"

The two little ones stood side by side in front of their mother, nodding obediently.

Gu Jinxian kissed alone, straightened her waist, and cast her eyes on the asphalt road leading to the gate of the manor.

A silver sports car appeared at the end of the road...

Gu Chixi got out of the car and stepped into the manor as a routine. As soon as she stepped onto the terrace, two children ran towards her and shouted childishly, "Happy birthday, auntie~"

He held up the gift box to her like offering a treasure.

The child's eyes were clear and bright, and his smile was innocent. Gu Chixi was stunned for a while, then raised his gaze, and saw Gu Jinxian standing by the table with arms crossed and smiling at her.

A subtle emotion welled up in my heart, which was very strange.

She looked back at the faces of the children, slightly raised the corners of her mouth, and accepted the gift, "Thank you."

"Come and sit down." Gu Jinxian waved to her.

Gu Chixi glanced around, and subconsciously walked to a position a little far away from her. Gu Jinxian suddenly took her hand, pointed to her side, and said, "Sit here."

"..."

She sat down in silence.

The terrace is very high, surrounded by a thick double-glazed fence, and a string of small light bulbs are hung on the edge, which emit a warm and soft creamy light like the lamp in the corner of the wall.Standing by the fence, you can overlook the scenery of lakes and mountains, small bridges and flowing water. It is the mid-autumn night, and when you look up, you can see the bright moon as round as an ice plate.

The dishes are much richer than last time, filled with wooden round table turntables.

Among them is a plate of sweet-scented osmanthus rice cakes.

"I've been waiting for you since the afternoon until now, you, come on a little bit, I seem to be eating you half a minute earlier." Gu Jinxian turned her head to look at her sister, teasing with a smile.She picked up a wet towel and wiped her fingers slowly.

The roots are slender and distinct, and they are as white as jade.

Gu Chixi frowned slightly, another feeling of nausea surged up uncontrollably, she quickly looked away, and landed on the sweet-scented osmanthus rice cake impartially, the nausea was even worse.

The shadows of memories floated in my mind...

When she was about seven or eight years old, Gu Jinxian forced her to eat rice cakes. She didn't like it. The man brought the rice cakes in front of her, pinched her chin with one hand, and directly grabbed the rice cakes and stuffed them into her mouth with the other.

The teenage child's hands were not serious, and her fingers almost poked her throat. She retched reflexively, her stomach felt sick, and tears flowed out.

That was the first time she was bullied and cried.

Before grabbing the rice cakes, Gu Jinxian wiped her hands with a wet towel, as gracefully as she is now.

Gu Chixi didn't speak, and ate vegetables with chopsticks.

The dinner table was quiet, Gu Jinxian knew that her sister was reticent, but she didn't force her to speak, she just kept her eyes on her face and brought her some food from time to time.The two children are also very well-behaved, sitting at the small children's table next to them and eating, under the care of the servants.

Gu Chixi felt the sight from his side, and couldn't help but tense up, the movement of eating was like a machine.

"Do you still remember what happened when you were a child?" Gu Jinxian suddenly said.

She paused with her chopsticks, shook her head and said, "No."

"Xixi—"

"..."

"You are 30 years old today."

"Ah."

"Dad is dead."

"Ah."

"Let it go, please?" Gu Jinxian said softly, gently holding her left wrist.

Gu Chixi withdrew his hand, and said in a neutral tone: "It's all over, there's nothing you can't let go of, but you can't change something you don't need out of thin air, so why force it."

For example, family affection.

The grievances and grievances in the past can't tell right from wrong, the past is gone, but the family love has never existed, from childhood to adulthood, how can it be born overnight.

It's too embarrassing to play the sister card at a young age.

Gu Jinxian pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "You will come to play more often in the future, and walk around often, or I can go to your place."

She leaned over with her upper body and grabbed Gu Chixi's wrist again. This time she held it very tightly, not allowing her to break free. Her gentle voice surrounded her ears, "Give me a chance to make up for it."

A sly smile flashed across his eyes.

Very shallow and fades away quickly.

Gu Chixi didn't answer.

……

It was already 07:30 after the meal, and the servant brought up the big cake. Gu Chixi was thinking about his family and was eager to go back, so he tactfully declined the invitation to sit for a while longer.

Gu Jinxian didn't force her, she just let her blow out the candles, let the servant cut the cake for the children, and sent her out personally.

The night wind is cool.

"Next week, your people will go back safe and sound. You can handle the rest of the matter yourself. If you need help, you can always come to me." Gu Jinxian tucked the broken hair on her forehead and tied it behind her ears.

Gu Chixi didn't have time to avoid this movement, so he could only take half a step to the side, and said softly, "I'm sorry, big sister."

Tianhewan Building N102 is brightly lit.

A small and exquisite cake was placed on the dining table, covered with a layer of fragrant chocolate sauce, which was beautiful and attractive, with the words "Happy Birthday" written on it, glowing under the lamp.

Wen Ning sat at the table and stared at it in a daze.

After nearly three hours of tinkering, she made this cake by herself. Today is Gu Chixi's birthday. Apart from that, she has no other presents.

She just didn't want the man to know she forgot.

Otherwise, it should be very sad?

Thinking of this, her heart twitched inexplicably.

Just pretend you're preparing for a surprise.Wen Ning thought.Although this "surprise" is really a bit shabby, she spent all her time doing it anyway, hoping to make up for some regrets as much as possible.

Memories come flooding back...

In the autumn of her freshman year, Gu Chixi celebrated her birthday. Because it was a coming-of-age ceremony and she had just entered university, the day was very memorable, so she, who never went into the kitchen, wanted to make a cake for her sister herself.

At an age full of enthusiasm, when you have an idea, you must put it into action immediately, and you can't wait for a moment.

She wanted to do it by herself from the beginning to the end, so she didn't tell anyone about it. She checked the tutorials on the Internet, took her pocket money to the supermarket to buy raw materials, and locked herself in the kitchen when she came back. Learn to do it.

Stirring the ingredients, Wen Ning was clumsy, the flour paste made her face all over her face, white marks were everywhere on the stove and on the wall.

She is very happy.

Stirring with brute force...

The oven at home is different from the oven used in the video. Wen Ning puts the well-stirred ingredients into it. She doesn't know how to adjust it and is anxious, so she randomly turns it around twice and waits contentedly for it to come out of the oven.

She cleaned up the kitchen, took a shower, washed off the smell of raw materials on her body, changed into new clothes, and sat in the living room watching TV while waiting.

When I look at it, I forget the time.

Until there was a burning smell coming from the kitchen...

It was the servant who discovered it first. Following the smell, he went in and saw black smoke coming out of the oven. He was so frightened that he turned off the kitchen switch before he dared to open it.

Take out a lump of black stuff.

Wen Ning stood beside her, dumbfounded: "What is this?"

"Miss, I have to ask you..." Auntie looked at her awkwardly.

"Well."

It seems to be burnt.

Also broke the oven.

In the evening, Gu Chixi returned to Tianhe Bay from school, went directly to Wen Ning's house next door through his own gate.Xiao Nizi called her in the afternoon and said mysteriously that she had something good to share with her. She had been looking forward to it since the moment she hung up the phone.

Wen's father and Wen's mother hadn't come back from the outing, the servant opened the door, and when they saw her, they seemed to be grasping at straws: "Oh, Miss Gu, you're here."

"Where's Lemon?"

"Crying in the room, alas, she—"

Before he finished speaking, Gu Chixi immediately took off his shoes and rushed upstairs barefoot.

Wen Ning curled up on the bed, with her back to the door, her body twitching, she ran to the bed, knelt down on one knee, "Ning Ning... what's wrong?"

The little girl's eyes were red and swollen into walnuts. Gu Chixi frantically wiped her tears and picked her up, as soft as kneading a piece of cotton candy.

"Why are you crying so well?"

"I burned the cake..." Wen Ning's voice was hoarse, and she looked at her aggrieved.

Gu Chixi asked suspiciously, "What cake?"

"I want to make you a birthday cake, sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..." she started to cry again, two thin arms wrapped around her neck, and tears rubbed on her hair.

Gu Chixi suddenly realized, felt distressed and wanted to laugh, "Stop crying, Ning Ning, let's make another one together."

"I just want to do it for you myself."

"Then sister will teach you by the side, and you can do it yourself, okay?"

Wen Ning thought about it and nodded.

The oven at home was broken, and the two went to the next door with the leftover ingredients. Gu Chixi had learned how to make pastry, she guided the whole process, Wen Ning did it, and finally baked a decent cake.

Gu Chixi, who seldom eats sweets, ate up the whole cake.

After that, Wen Ning didn't make cakes anymore.

No one is worth her hand.

……

The hour hand points to eight.

Her vision was a little blurry, Wen Ning rubbed her eyes lightly, her hands were wet.

A beam of powerful headlights swept across the window, and there was movement outside. She looked up and saw a silver sports car parked outside the yard, and a figure got out of the car.

She has come back.

Wen Ning's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she walked to the sofa.

The door of the living room opened, as expected, Gu Chixi's figure appeared in sight, and when he looked up, their eyes met.

"Ningling..." She called her softly.

Wen Ning's heart trembled, she pretended to be calm and said, "It's pretty punctual."

"Are you waiting for me?"

"Ah."

Gu Chixi was taken aback, his deep black eyes overflowing with light.She raised the corners of her lips slightly, walked up to Wen Ning with her slippers on, and was suddenly grabbed by her hand.

"Follow me." Wen Ning pulled her around.

The little cake stood quietly on the dining table.

Gu Chixi looked at the English words, "This is..."

It seemed that she had expected what it meant, but she wasn't sure if it was what she thought.She turned her head to look at Wen Ning, and held her breath.

Wen Ning looked at her and said softly, "Eighteen adults, thirty years old."

"Happy birthday."

The two looked at each other, Gu Chixi's eyelashes trembled, her eyes were a little wet, she withdrew her hand, said in a low voice, "I'm going to the bathroom", and walked quickly into the bathroom.

Close the door.

Gu Chixi leaned his back against the wall, tears streaming down his face.

She raised her head and took a deep breath, covered her mouth, put one hand on the sink, and saw her red eyes through the mirror, her body gradually began to tremble uncontrollably.

The turbulent emotions rushed through her brain like a torrent.

Can't make a sound.

A small puddle of clear liquid accumulated on the sink.

Gu Chixi wiped away tears, pressed the toilet flush button, then turned on the faucet, picked up the cleansing oil on the side and poured it on the cotton, quickly removed the eye makeup, and it seemed that the eyes were rubbed redder.

Finish packing and go out.

"What happened to your eyes?" Wen Ning asked with a frown.

Gu Chixi said calmly, "I just took off my eye makeup, and it's a little red."

"……Oh."

Wen Ning looked at the little cake, and was about to speak when Gu Chixi pulled out the chair and sat down, picked up a small spoon, picked a piece and put it into his mouth.

"Is it delicious?" Wen Ning looked at her nervously.

Gu Chixi nodded, swallowed what was in his mouth, and said softly, "Thank you, wife."

Wen Ning breathed a sigh of relief.

Her lips and teeth were stained with chocolate sauce, and her eating was so refined that she looked a little cute.Wen Ning stared at her, unaware that there was a smile in her eyes.

Walking away, a piece of cake was brought to his mouth.

"Let's eat together." Gu Chixi's eyes brightened.

"it is good."

Wen Ning reached out to hold the spoon herself, but Gu Chixi refused and insisted on feeding her. She reluctantly opened her mouth to eat the cake. At that moment, the tip of her tongue melted with the rich aroma of chocolate.

tasty.

Unexpectedly, after many years, she could do it successfully in one go.

Considering that Gu Chixi doesn't often eat sweets, especially if she doesn't touch high-calorie things at night, she didn't make the cake too big, just enough for two people to eat together.Gu Chixi ate a piece for himself, and fed her a piece, each person took a bite, and the plate quickly bottomed out.

I felt a little full after eating, so I sat and rested.

"I came back in a hurry today, so I didn't have time to prepare a gift for you..." Wen Ning said in a low tone.

In the past, when Gu Chixi celebrated her birthday, she would prepare presents half a month in advance, and there were more than one gift.She cared more about Gu Chixi's birthday than her own.

But it's different now.

After all, there was a gap of seven years between the two.

"Or, is there anything you want? I'll make it up to you later as a gift."

"Have."

"what?"

Gu Chixi stared at her, many words came to his mouth and swallowed, and finally shook his head, "She is very precious, a priceless treasure."

"what?"

"Lemon..."

"?"

"Did you come here on purpose today?" She looked deeply.

Wen Ning immediately denied, "No."

Gu Chixi was disappointed, but the smile in her eyes didn't fade away. She was happy and satisfied. At least Wen Ning didn't forget her birthday. Twelve years later, she still remembered the autumn when she became an adult...

After sitting for a while, each went to wash.

Gu Chixi's movements should be slower. After she finished washing, Wen Ning had already come out of the upstairs bathroom for a quarter of an hour.

She was satisfied today, but she still couldn't help wanting more. She dried her hair and stood in the living room looking at the second floor, ready to move.However, the next second, Wen Ning came out of the bedroom, went downstairs, and bumped into her.

Long hair shawl, cheeks suffused with a slightly|drunken pink, and a low|low collar revealing a large clavicle.

"You—" Wen Ning's throat slipped, and he hesitated for a long time before finally remembering what he wanted to say, "Would you like to go upstairs to the balcony to watch the moon?"

"Your room?"

"……Um."

Gu Chixi felt slightly flattered, and immediately said hello and followed her upstairs.

There is a familiar scent of shampoo in the room.

As soon as she entered the door, Wen Ning was suddenly hugged from behind, and the warm, hot temperature came over her, and Gu Chixi's soft voice was next to her ear: "Come up, I won't leave, I'll stay with you tonight."

After speaking, he loosened his arms and turned to her, staring at each other.

There is hope in the quiet eyes.

"Can you?"

Wen Ning hesitated.

She can no longer be as tough as before, but she is not willing to agree easily.

"Lemon..."

Gu Chixi leaned over and buried her face next to her neck, "Today, I will give my sister a favor."
