Qingqiu [Transmigration Book]

-1-birthday

The long Chinese New Year holiday is over, and the empty streets in the center of Jiangkou instantly become full of traffic.However, this does not affect Mu Qingqiu, who is mainly an online writer.

After posting today's [-]-character daily update, Mu Qingqiu closed the Yari Hydrology City's webpage, opened the main account of Yuechenup that he had just registered last month, and checked to see if there was any mixed-cut MAD released last week. Make yourself more popular.

Mu Qingqiu claimed to be an omnivorous up master.The time-lapse photography released during the Chinese New Year allowed Mu Qingqiu to gain nearly [-] fans. Although there are not many people, the daily active users of this two-dimensional comprehensive video website are only about [-].One video can get so much attention, Mu Qingqiu is already very content.

However, it is clear that his MAD is not very pleasing, and the number of fans has not exceeded [-] yet.

Mu Qingqiu pouted, closed the webpage, turned on the phone, and turned to thinking about what birthday present to prepare for Xu Zhixian, although March 3th is still about a week away.

After clicking on the "Tiangou" APP, Mu Qingqiu tapped "Boyfriend's Birthday Gift" to check the store recommendations.

As Baiyu, Woke, etc. increased their investment in Top Top Spring, related basic life software such as Alipay, WeChat, and Taobao have become popular. The active customers of the APP under the name of Meng Technology have completely covered the permanent residents of all first-tier cities in Qinghe Country, and the number of users in second- and third-tier cities is also increasing exponentially.

"Dear Her Royal Highness" The world is undergoing earth-shaking changes.Mu Qingqiu wasn't sure if this had something to do with his coming, but the world was indeed more diverse than when he first arrived, and many unreasonable time disorders seemed to have been corrected.

People's online entertainment activities have also become rich and colorful. There are two-dimensional social video sites and online literature sites. Interesting hotspots on Weibo are emerging in an endless stream, and related entertainment software such as live broadcasts and short videos have also sprung up. .

Although it is still far behind Mu Qingqiu's original post-VR era, it is getting closer.

After searching for a long time, Mu Qingqiu still didn't get any inspiration from the Tiangou app.

Probably because he had too many similar searches recently, the group buying app pushed a message of "DIY wood workshop group buying coupon discount".

Mu Qingqiu glanced at it and became interested.

Thinking that today is Friday, Xu Zhixian hurriedly processed all the documents and reports that should be arranged during the day, and planned to go back to the apartment early to accompany Mu Qingqiu. There are many projects to be dealt with this week, Xu Zhixian has not been home before nine o'clock for three days up.

Xiao Li, the chief financial officer, was late for the meeting this morning, saying that he was too busy preparing for the divorce procedures.Director Li's daughter-in-law said the marriage broke down because he never came home.

This reminded Xu Zhixian that Mu Qingqiu also stayed at home most of the time, even though he hired an hourly worker, Mu Qingqiu would not feel bored by doing housework, and with Wang Ma watching over him, the hourly worker would not be lazy.But would Mu Qingqiu feel bored?

Although he thought Mu Qingqiu would not, Xu Zhixian was always a little worried.

Back at the apartment, when he opened the door, he didn't hear Mu Qingqiu's "お帰り (Welcome back)~", Xu Zhixian thought that Mu Qingqiu was wearing headphones in the study and didn't hear it, but when he looked down, he saw Mu Qingqiu's slippers casually placed in the entrance.

"She said she cheated because I never came home!" The chief financial officer's depressed voice sounded in his head.

Xu Zhixian quickly shook his head, and said to himself: "Don't think about it."

Shaking away distracting thoughts, Xu Zhixian changed his shoes and went into the study.The solid wood table is neatly tidied up.None of last night's book clutter.

"What are you doing?" Xu Zhixian murmured, went into the kitchen, took a look at the full refrigerator, and took out a bottle of yogurt.

squeak--

With the opening of the security door, Mu Qingqiu's voice came into the kitchen: "Huh? You came back so early today? Where is Zhixian?" As soon as Mu Qingqiu entered the door, he saw Xu Zhixian's leather shoes neatly placed on the gray carpet in the entrance .He shouted, but no one came out.

Mu Qingqiu was wondering, when he saw Xu Zhixian leaning out half of his body from the dining room and asked, "お帰り, have you gone out?"

"En." Mu Qingqiu nodded, his eyes were a little erratic.He was afraid that Xu Zhixian would ask him what he was doing, so he quickly changed the subject, "Are you hungry? I saw fresh clams for sale on the side of the road, how about being a sixtieth fan?"

"Okay. I'll help." Xu Zhixian smiled.

Originally, Mu Qingqiu didn't plan to make sixtieth powder, because it was too troublesome.If Xu Zhixian still worked overtime tonight, he planned to blanch the clams with salt water at night and eat them casually.These few days Xu Zhixian was not at home, Mu Qingqiu was not even in the mood to cook.

Millet pepper and onion dices, plus onion, ginger and garlic are sautéed in a small pot.

The red oil was sizzling, Mu Qingqiu controlled the water from the clams that had spit out a lot of sand, put them into the fragrant chili sauce and stir-fried well.Xu Zhixian handed over the shelled prawns that had been picked out, and turned around to check if the vermicelli were soaked soft.

After 10 minutes, the bright red flower nail powder is cooked.It was only after Mu Qingqiu went into the kitchen to pick up chopsticks that he realized the smell.

Back at the dining table, Xu Zhixian was editing Moments on his mobile phone.

"Are you done with the project in Jinguan City?" Mu Qingqiu asked as he picked out the clam meat and threw the shells into an empty plate.

"I'm done with the work in the early stage, and I'll leave it to Xiao Wang. Last year, I was busy taking down Ji Hua and confiscated a lot of talents. I no longer have to do everything by myself." Xu Zhixian sneered at the fans and said, "There is land on weekends. Auction, shall we go together?"

"Okay, but wouldn't this be considered a harem meddling in politics?"

"..."

Xu Zhixian paused after listening to the chopsticks, and looked up to see the smirk on the face of the person opposite the table.

Since Mu Qingqiu came back again, the longer Xu Zhixian stayed with him, the more he realized that Mu Qingqiu was not as... serious and simple as he first met.

He must be blind to think that this person is just like a child. Which child would speak nasty words from time to time like Mu Qingqiu, and still know so much...

Xu Zhixian didn't want to answer, so he changed the subject: "Did you go to buy armor just now? Do you want to eat..."

"Cough cough cough..." Mu Qingqiu was almost out of breath from being choked by the pepper.

It took a long time to recover, and Mu Qingqiu calmed down before replying: "Well, I suddenly want to eat..."

"If you want to eat, just let me know. I'll have the port deliver it directly so that you don't have to make a special trip." Seeing that Mu Qingqiu was fine, Xu Zhixian sat back and continued to eat noodles.

After dinner, Mu Qingqiu threw the bowl into the dishwasher, and sat on the sofa with Xu Zhixian to watch TV to digest.

The scrolling subtitles were reflected on the white wall, Xu Zhixian raised his wrist to look at the time, then turned his head and said, "I'm going to take a shower."

"I'm with you~"

Xu Zhixian didn't deny it, Mu Qingqiu took it as acquiescence, turned off the projector, got up and followed to the bathroom.

Walking to the door of the bathroom, Xu Zhixian stopped, turned around and wanted to go to the bedroom.

But Mu Qingqiu stopped him: "What kind of pajamas do you want? Wouldn't it be troublesome to put them on and take them off again? Let's go. I'll put them on later." Saying this, Mu Qingqiu dragged him into the bathroom and closed the door.

The sound of pattering water came from inside the door, along with a slight panting sound.

The night was heavy, and the silver-white moonlight passed through the thin cotton curtains and sprinkled on the snow-white walls.

Listening to Xu Zhixian's steady breathing, Mu Qingqiu confirmed that he was already sound asleep.Mu Qingqiu turned around slowly, as slowly as a sloth.With his back to Xu Zhixian, he took out the small measuring tape that he had prepared long ago from the pocket of his pajamas, found the side with centimeters printed on it by the moonlight, and secretly wrapped it around Xu Zhixian's left hand that was holding him.

"Hmm..." the person beside him murmured in a low voice.

Mu Qingqiu was stunned for a moment.

After a while, realizing that Xu Zhixian hadn't woken up, he breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to quietly measure the size of Xu Zhixian's ring finger.

Taking advantage of the moonlight tonight, Mu Qingqiu saw the scale clearly and recited it ten times silently in his heart before putting the scroll on the bedside.The phone on the bedside table lit up, and Mu Qingqiu suddenly remembered that there was still a memo on the phone that could be used. He scolded himself for being a fool in his heart, leaned forward slightly, and stretched his arms to reach the phone on the bedside table.

Ignoring the news sent by the browser [The well-known painter Gu Sui will hold another tour exhibition, telling about his legendary creative experience...], create a new memo, and write down the numbers.

When he put the phone back again, Mu Qingqiu found that he was so nervous that he was sweating again.

Those who didn't know thought he had an affair late at night, Mu Qingqiu complained in his heart, and slowly turned back, gently pinching the second button of Xu Zhixian's pajamas with his right hand, and gradually fell asleep.

Xu Zhixian slightly opened his eyes, looking at the sleeping person in his arms with a smile, he couldn't fall asleep.He was thinking desperately in his head—so late, who was Mu Qingqiu chatting with while typing?

Maybe it's with Mu Qingqiu... Xu Zhixian comforted himself silently, after all, it didn't look like they talked for a long time.

The next morning, Xu Zhixian didn't ask, nor did he check Mu Qingqiu's phone, as if he didn't see anything.

At the auction, Xu Zhixian successfully bought the piece of land he wanted, and immediately asked Yan Zhibin to contact the best team of architects and interior designers after completing the formalities. He wanted to design the best and most suitable for Mu Qingqiu. penthouse.

Although the area is not big, but the location is very good, Xu Zhixian set his sights on this land during Chinese New Year.

So, the weekend was a rest, but Xu Zhixian was immersed in the planning of new projects.

Seeing that Xu Zhixian was busy, Mu Qingqiu didn't act coquettishly and asked for company. He used his free time to write out two days' manuscripts and asked the editor for a day off in advance.

When Xu Zhixian went to work, he had to hurry up and go to the workshop to complete the pairing of rings.Mu Qingqiu was planning in his heart.

At the meeting on Monday, Xu Zhixian confirmed the entire project process.

The subordinates could all see that Mr. Xu attached great importance to this project, and no one dared to be careless, and quickly arranged it according to the determined process.

Seeing that things were running in an orderly manner, Xu Zhixian checked his schedule and found that there was nothing he needed to be busy with, so he put on his coat and prepared to go home.

However, there was only Wang Ma who was about to leave in the apartment.

"Xiao Xian is back? Are you busy today?" Wang Ma smiled sweetly.

Xu Zhixian looked down at the shoes at the door: "Well, I've finished my busy work, so I came back early. Where's Qingqiu?"

"Xiaoqiu, when I came, he said he had something to do and went out." Wang Ma said with a smile.

In fact, Mu Qingqiu had just left for a while, and before leaving the house, he asked her specifically about Xu Zhixian's birthday and his habits in previous years.Since Mu Qingqiu said that he wanted to give a surprise without telling the truth, let's not mention it.Seeing Xu Zhixian's somewhat lonely expression, Wang Ma thought.

"Oh, that's it. I'll take you back." Xu Zhixian nodded thoughtfully.

"No trouble. I'll take the subway and go back. It's not far away. It's free with the old age card." Wang Ma waved her hand.

"Squeeze. I'll take you back, you're welcome."

Mu Qingqiu hurried back to the apartment to check the time: it's still early, it's only after four o'clock.He guessed that Xu Zhixian should be busy today, after all, he has a new project.

But the moment the door was opened, I heard the sound of a TV in the living room.

Mu Qingqiu: ...Huh?

While thinking about how early Xu Zhixian came back, he said back.

No one answered, Mu Qingqiu thought that Xu Zhixian didn't hear the voice when he was driving, so he put down his messenger bag, changed his shoes and went into the living room: "I'm back."

"Hmm... Do you want to go out to eat tonight?" Xu Zhixian asked in a flat voice.

"Okay!" Mu Qingqiu said happily, hiding the hands with two band-aids behind his back.

Xu Zhixian wouldn't notice if he put his left hand down while eating later, Mu Qingqiu thought, he was worrying about how to explain it if he was cooking later, but fortunately it was the right hand that held the tools.

The evening wind in spring is extremely gentle, and it is a bit warmer without the harshness of winter.

Mu Qingqiu suggested walking to a restaurant not far away to eat, taking advantage of the good weather for a stroll.Xu Zhixian was walking on his left, and was about to hold hands, but Mu Qingqiu hurriedly dodged and switched sides.

Xu Zhixian: "Why did you suddenly switch to the left side?"

Mu Qingqiu put his injured hand in his pocket, smiled slightly, and lied: "I want to be closer to your heart."

Seeing that Xu Zhixian believed it, he breathed a sigh of relief.

And these words always sounded suggestive to Xu Zhixian.

The two held hands and walked silently on the sidewalk, thinking about each other.

The next day, Xu Zhixian came back early and did not see Mu Qingqiu.The next day it was still the same, Xu Zhixian searched Mu Qingqiu's novels and found that he had asked for leave, and it was stated that he was using the saved manuscript as early as Monday's update.

Xu Zhixian didn't know what Mu Qingqiu was busy with.Obviously Mu Qingqiu would tell himself how many comments he received.

There is an important meeting in the afternoon, Xu Zhixian can no longer skip work.He decided to have a good talk with Mu Qingqiu at night, he has not even been active in going to bed these two days, obviously he was so active a few days ago.

Dark brown glossy circles enclose the incandescent lights on the ceiling, creating a stark contrast between light and dark.

Mu Qingqiu looked at the red sandalwood ring that had finally been polished, and blew the sawdust on the "X&M" on the inner ring.The excitement in his heart was almost uncontrollable, he wished that today was Xu Zhixian's birthday, so he could give it to him when he flew back in a while.

"This should be the best birthday present." Mu Qingqiu put the engraved pair of rings in his heart and murmured.

Saying goodbye to the owner of the carpentry workshop, Mu Qingqiu put the ring box in his pocket and drove to the supermarket to buy flour.

Although Mu Qingqiu is good at stir-frying vegetables and stewed meat, he has never made pastries like cakes.In order to celebrate Xu Zhixian's first birthday the day after tomorrow, Mu Qingqiu has to make adequate preparations - try making a few cakes first.

Mu Qingqiu returned to the apartment with two bags of flour, a box of milk and other miscellaneous things. Seeing that Xu Zhixian was not at home, his tense heart relaxed.

In the past few days, Xu Zhixian came back early, and when he went out in the morning, he said that he would work overtime and not wait for him in the evening.Mu Qingqiu felt that he was about to be unable to hide his surprise, but fortunately Xu Zhixian came back early and saw that he was not there and didn't ask any more questions, but Mu Qingqiu was always empty in his heart.

Mu Qingqiu put the flour into the cupboard.After confirming that Xu Zhixian would not work overtime, he took out the frozen mutton from the refrigerator, and while the time was still long, he made a bowl of mutton noodles for Xu Zhixian to eat at night.

After the meeting, Xu Zhixian calmed down a little. After replying to Mu Qingqiu, he reflected on whether it was his problem.

Xu Zhixian thought about it seriously.

It is true that I have been a little busy recently, but Mu Qingqiu has also been a senior executive of the company before, so he should know that sometimes he is busy.Could it be that he was too anxious, which made Mu Qingqiu a little uncomfortable.He was also frightened when he said that he was living together.

Confused, Xu Zhixian turned to what he thought was an expert for help.

"Hello...?"

"Frank, it's me, sorry, I forgot to calculate the time difference."

"Fine, what'swrong?" Frank was originally full of anger, but he couldn't say anything when Xu Zhixian apologized first.

Xu Zhixian talked about what happened recently, but he heard Frank laughing on the phone.

"what's so funny?"

"Nothing. It's just that I suddenly felt that being in love changes a person a lot. You were never such a mother-in-law before, and you hated a mother-in-law like me the most. Didn't you once say that there should be no jealousy between lovers? If you have anything to say, just say it. Now……"

Frank didn't say the whole thing, but Xu Zhixian already understood.

"Aren't you worried? If it's true, and Qingqiu really thinks so, then he won't even be a friend. I don't want to lose him again."

"Hahaha, you know now? Call me Dad, and I'll teach you a few tricks if you call me Grandpa..." Frank said triumphantly.

Taking advantage of the mutton stew, Mu Qingqiu coded three thousand words.

I looked at the comments a few days ago, and some readers said that the protagonist fell in love and got married too quickly, and it wasn't about writing about contract marriage, marriage first and then love. I don't know what the author is rushing.A few readers also agreed, saying that the kind of passionate love that is in love has not been felt before writing preparations for the wedding in a blink of an eye.

Mu Qingqiu realized that he was affected by the events of the past few days while writing, and then wondered if he fell in love too quickly?Made the engagement ring in just over a month.

Mu Qingqiu only wanted to make Xu Zhixian feel at ease, he didn't want to see Xu Zhixian looking for him in a hurry, it was too distressing.But what did Xu Zhixian think about the engagement...

bell bell bell...

The sound of the timer's alarm clock interrupted his thoughts, Mu Qingqiu got up and turned down the heat to make the mutton more flavorful.

Looking at the bubbling broth, Mu Qingqiu thought for a while how to ask around.

After a while, there was the sound of a key turning at the door, and Mu Qingqiu knew that Xu Zhixian had returned, so he went into the kitchen to cook noodles.

When he entered the room and smelled the familiar smell of stewed meat, Xu Zhixian suddenly felt that he was overthinking everything. Maybe Mu Qingqiu went out to find inspiration for the article?Don't you just ask for leave these days?He was also depressed for a long time last week because of Carvin.

But in fact, you can also talk about it with yourself, Xu Zhixian looked at the people busy in the kitchen, playing games between left and right in his heart.

"Get ready to eat." Mu Qingqiu shouted without looking back.

I hope that I was only influenced by Director Li, Xu Zhixian thought, walked into the kitchen, and hugged Mu Qingqiu from behind.

"Tired?" Mu Qingqiu habitually turned his head and kissed those who came home from get off work, "I made your favorite stew."

The miso soup is oily but not greasy, and the meat is fresh but not stinky. Put a few boiled rapeseeds in each of the two bowls and serve with stewed mutton noodles in braised sauce.

Dinner is ready.

At the dinner table, Xu Zhixian hesitated for a long time and still felt that he needed to talk to Mu Qingqiu, but he didn't need to be too serious.

Frank said that when you are in love, you must communicate well. When you are angry, you can make a fuss, but when you are angry, you two have to talk it out, otherwise it will accumulate more and more, and in the end there will only be bigger quarrels or breakups.

Xu Zhixian didn't want such a thing to happen in the future, and he didn't like his hypocritical self very much.

After struggling for a while, Xu Zhixian said: "Qiuqiu, there are a lot of things at work recently, and I always come back late, do you think...you don't feel in love anymore?"

"Eh?" Mu Qingqiu, who had eaten half a mouthful of noodles, looked up at Xu Zhixian, "No, isn't it just busy at the beginning of the year?"

"Won't you feel bored?"

"No, it's very fulfilling to rush to draft every day."

"Won't you need company?"

"You go home to sleep with me at night."

"No, I mean daytime."

"No need, I have my business, you have yours. We are all adults, how can we have so much time to get bored every day."

Hearing what Mu Qingqiu said, he should be relieved, but Xu Zhixian felt very uncomfortable: Just... don't care at all?

"...You...don't miss me when you're at home?" Xu Zhixian said in a muffled voice, lowering his head and poking the mutton in the soft compress.

Mu Qingqiu frowned and looked at the person at the opposite table. The bangs on his forehead blocked Xu Zhixian's expression, but his voice didn't sound right. Mu Qingqiu felt that he could no longer answer: "Sometimes yes, but you I'll be back tonight."

"Oh." Xu Zhixian pursed his lips, but he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

Miss me too.

Mu Qingqiu wondered if he was not at home these days, making him think too much?Or what did his colleagues gossip about?

Fearing that the surprise would be exposed, Mu Qingqiu didn't dare to startle the snake.He put down his chopsticks slowly, and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter? Why did you ask this suddenly? Did I make you feel uncomfortable?"

"No, no. I was thinking too much. Xiao Li asked for leave a few days ago to deal with the divorce proceedings. His wife said that it was because he often didn't go home to talk to others."

"Infidelity in marriage? It's not like that." Mu Qingqiu had seen the financial director's wife, she was gentle and elegant, with the demeanor of a lady.Mu Qingqiu shook his head, "But this shouldn't be a reason. Since you have chosen, you should take on this responsibility. If you can't afford it, and you can't negotiate a solution, then you can get a divorce."

Xu Zhixian didn't expect that Mu Qingqiu would have the same meaning as what he said to comfort the director, and then he thought that Mu Qingqiu was like this.

Recalling what Mu Qingqiu said in the old house, Xu Zhixian suddenly laughed, what was he struggling with?Dreaming like a little girl, Mingming and Qingqiu have already said that if there is anything they don't like, just bring it up.

"However, I'm not good at judging others. Maybe people just think that Director Li is too busy and don't know how to speak..." Mu Qingqiu thought about it, "So, you are asking this because you are worried that I will keep it secret like this, so that you will not talk about it. Fork in the road?"

"……No."

Seeing that Xu Zhixian really thought so, Mu Qingqiu smiled: "What are you thinking about all day long. If you have that time, it's better to finish work early and come back early. If I really miss you, it's hard to think, or you miss me. I I'll go to the building to find you. Anyway, I can code with a computer."

"it is good."

Now that someone else's marriage was mentioned, Mu Qingqiu took it as a throwing brick to attract attention: "Xiao Li is so busy with his marriage?"

"That's right. I'll give him a day off the day after tomorrow."

"Oh... Then do you think it's because they got married too soon? I remember you said that they knew each other as soul mates after knowing each other for more than a month, and then they got married."

"Maybe. The two of them are still in love, and they don't know each other well. In fact, they shouldn't get married soon. It's okay if they are childhood sweethearts."

Mu Qingqiu nodded silently, thinking that he would go to the mall tomorrow to have a look.

After a day of practice, Mu Qingqiu can already skillfully make delicious cakes.But he won't want cake for about a year.

As always, the morning light shines through the cracks in the curtains into the dark bedroom, heralding the arrival of an extraordinary day.

At the entrance, after Mu Qingqiu helped Xu Zhixian fasten his tie, he kissed him good morning.And because Xu Zhixian received the news that the neighboring province's Wanda Plaza was on fire late at night in the morning, he brought a sandwich and went to work.

Mu Qingqiu watched the people disappear in a hurry at the corner of the corridor, feeling that Xu Zhixian probably forgot that today is his birthday.

As the sun sank to the west, Mu Qingqiu received the news that Xu Zhixian was going to work late today.

Thinking of the call Xu Zhixian received in the morning, Mu Qingqiu felt that he would come back very late tonight, so he decided to drive to Jin Mao to find him.

When taking out the black cufflink box from the drawer, Mu Qingqiu glanced at the dark blue ring box deep in the drawer and was stunned for a while.

The unexpected incident at Wanda Plaza would not make Xu Zhixian overwhelmed, after all, there were no casualties.He just had a press conference.Seeing the news in the morning, Xu Zhixian was quite thankful that it happened late at night.

In fact, there was no need for the president of the group to come forward for such a matter.However, Wanda Plaza has always been positioned as a mid-to-high-end commercial plaza. Xu Zhixian thought it necessary to hold a press conference to express his apology and declare strict management and accountability.

Although the follow-up matters will be very troublesome, not to mention the huge loss of assets, the loss of operating income, and the refurbishment will cost a lot of money.But that's what regional managers need to worry about, not Hsu Chi Hyun.

Before the press conference, he was considering whether it is necessary to cooperate with the fire brigade to carry out some fire protection knowledge publicity, such as providing free venues and games on weekends to educate children about fire protection.On the one hand, it can cooperate with the government, and on the other hand, it can let some parents with children go shopping with confidence.

However, according to Xiao Li's rough cost estimate after the meeting, the plan to hold it in each shopping mall every month was rejected.But the business and legal directors thought it was a good idea.

Therefore, the finance department is now looking for the optimal balance point, and strives to write out a specific plan before the weekend.

And Xu Zhixian was in contact with the city government department, asking for cooperation intentions.Although it is definitely willing, there must still be some formal procedures.

When Mu Qingqiu got into the elevator, he realized that he didn't have a card, and he didn't have permission to go to the top floor, so he had to go to the first floor to register.He walked to the front desk, annoyed that there would be no surprises.The portable square box is particularly obvious in the hall where people come and go.

"Please show me your ID, please." The guard looked at Mu Qingqiu with some displeasure.

Mu Qingqiu knew that he was disturbing others from eating, so he obediently took out his ID card from his pocket.

"Brother Mu?!" Yan Zhibin's voice came from behind him, "Brother Wang, this is Mr. Xu's acquaintance, there is no need to call Mr. Xu to confirm, I will take him up."

"Hey, good." The uncle copied the beginning of his ID number, put down his pen and went back to the house to watch a TV series for dinner.

"Brother Mu, let's go. I'll take you upstairs." Yan Zhibin said, taking the big box from Mu Qingqiu's hand.

"I'll do it by myself, it's not easy to hold so many things in your hand." Mu Qingqiu refused, fearing that Yan Zhibin would accidentally ruin the creamy fruit cake.

"Oh, good." Yan Zhibin grinned and said with a smile, and divided the plastic bags that were closed in one hand back into two.

When the elevator door closed, Mu Qingqiu glanced down and asked, "Is this everyone's dinner?"

"Well. Mainly from the Finance Department."

"Didn't ask the little assistant to help?"

"The little assistant just graduated, and she's a girl again. It's not good to go home late, so I let her go back first. And I lost the bet with Mr. Li last time, so this time I treat you..."

Ding--

The top floor has arrived.

The elevator doors open.Yan Zhibin took a bag of Oden and handed it over: "This is Mr. Xu's, so I won't disturb it."

"it is good."

The moment he pushed the door open, Mu Qingqiu saw Xu Zhixian with his back to the door, holding a report in his hand, without turning his head, he said, "Just put it on the table, I'll eat it later."

Mu Qingqiu raised his eyebrows: "Okay, Mr. Xu. I put it on the table for you, eat it while it's hot."

Putting down the food box, cake and oden, Mu Qingqiu turned around and left without waiting for Xu Zhixian's reaction.

"Don't go. Why are you here?" Xu Zhixian was both surprised and delighted.

Mu Qingqiu opened the cake box: "What do you think?"

"Is it your birthday today? I'm sorry, I don't know... go back now? Actually, there's nothing else to do... How about eating here? You like night scenes... Anything, anything..." Xu Zhixian was a little incoherent.

Mu Qingqiu couldn't help but pursed his lips and laughed: "Are you confused during the meeting? Today is your birthday."

"Eh?"

Seeing Xu Zhixian stunned, Mu Qingqiu wondered if he remembered it wrong?

"Isn't it March 3? Or do you celebrate the lunar calendar? But Mama Wang said it's the solar calendar..."

"Oh, no, that's right. I forgot." Xu Zhixian bit his lips lightly to hide his slight embarrassment.

"Happy birthday~ let's eat first, I brought a bento. You can eat oden if you want. Or read the report first?"

"Read the report first?" Xu Zhixian looked at Mu Qingqiu with lowered eyebrows, asking for advice.

"Okay. I'll wait for you." Mu Qingqiu smiled, eyes full of pampering.

The efficiency of someone waiting is always very fast.After Xu Zhixian sent back the report, he didn't care about it anymore, and sat on the sofa to eat.

The two sat side by side to pick up vegetables, as if they were back on New Year's Eve.

Putting the food box with only the leftover vegetable soup aside, Mu Qingqiu turned off the lights and inserted candles to light it all in one go, then obediently pushed the cake in front of Xu Zhixian: "Make a wish?"

Xu Zhixian looked at the cake that was bigger than his face in front of him, the candle was shining brightly, and the small orange flames were flickering, jumping in Mu Qingqiu's eyes.

Happiness came so suddenly, Xu Zhixian didn't know what best wish to make for a while.

After thinking for a while, he crossed his index fingers so devoutly that he could no longer silently make a wish.

"call--"

As the candles were extinguished, Mu Qingqiu turned on the light: "The cake is a bit big, do you want to share it with you while working overtime?"

"Okay. I'll cut off ours and take it to them."

"Uh, don't keep mine. I don't really want to eat cake recently."

"Worried about growing fat?"

"No. It's just... a little tired." Seeing Xu Zhixian looking at him in confusion, Mu Qingqiu immediately explained, "It's not about the cake, it's about me. This should be delicious."

Xu Zhixian took a small piece with a fork and tasted it: "It's really delicious, where did you buy it? This box is so ordinary, it doesn't even have a logo printed on it."

"I made..., but it's just a paper plate or something that I bought in the supermarket."

"If you say that, I don't want to share it with them anymore."

Mu Qingqiu bent his eyebrows, and brushed Xu Zhixian's soft hair: "If you want to eat later, I will make it for you."

"Okay, I'll take it to them." Xu Zhixian kissed with gentle eyes.

Reminiscent of getting tired of eating before, Xu Zhixian guessed that Qiuqiu had prepared a lot for her birthday.Even though he was so attentive, why did I feel that he didn't care before?

Xu Zhixian knocked on the door symbolically, and the moment he opened the door, everyone in the room looked at him in amazement.

Holding up a big cake, Xu Zhixian raised his eyebrows and looked at the overtime workers: "The CEO's wife made a cake, everyone has worked hard overtime. Go back and rest when you're done."

Everyone was surprised, the president's wife is definitely an angel!Give delicious food and avoid overtime!

Before they finished dividing the cake, Xu Zhixian closed the door.

Just listening to the meeting room, everyone started gossip:

"When did Mr. Xu get married?"

"No handles, no rings. It should just be in love."

"Well, just in love."

"The president's wife is so caring, Mr. Xu is so happy, you can tell at a glance that she is a good wife and mother."

"Uh, that might not be a good description. Brother Mu is a man."

"Eh?! Zhibin, have you met?!"

"What does it look like? Is it handsome? Will it be a beauty like in the novel?"

"I have no idea……"

People in the room were discussing in a hurry.

Xu Zhixian knew without thinking that Yan Zhibin must be surrounded by the little sisters from the finance department.Smiling and sighing, Xu Zhixian returned to his office.

Mu Qingqiu had already cleaned up all the garbage from the food boxes, and there were only cakes and delicately packaged gift boxes left on the coffee table.

"Is this a birthday present for me?"

"Well... I don't know if you like it or not."

"I like whatever you give me." Xu Zhixian unwrapped the outer package, and inside was a pair of cufflinks with strange and beautiful symbols printed on them, "What are these?"

The round metal button has a protruding and separated geometric pattern. The concentric circles and two sets of wavy lines stand on the left and right. The amplitude of the lines is neatly presented in a certain mathematical law. The ray geometry under the concentric circles starts from the center. , of different lengths, combined with the most comfortable length and size.The square and two small rings are also appropriately engraved on the metal disc.

Xu Zhixian didn't know what was printed on the cuff, but he liked it inexplicably, as if he was being lightly stepped on the tip of his heart by the soft pad of the little milk cat.

"The voice of the earth. When NASA sent Voyager 1, the album cover it carried was a gift for aliens. As a foreigner in this world, I am like an alien. And you are the one I have encountered in this life Yes, the best gift."

Saying that, Mu Qingqiu put his arms on Xu Zhixian's shoulders, pressed the tip of his nose together, and looked at the person in front of him affectionately.The distance between the two is so close that you can hear each other's beating heart, so close that your breaths are entangled with each other.

Light bergamot wraps around heavy ebony.Mu Qingqiu's slender eyelashes fluttered, rubbing Xu Zhixian's lower eyelids a little itchy.

The cufflink box closed slowly and was gently thrown on the sofa.Xu Zhixian hugged his thin waist, lowered his eyes and kissed Mu Qingqiu's soft lips that tasted like sauce.

Xu Zhixian took the initiative to put the tip of his tongue into Mu Qingqiu's mouth, licked and teased, and then bit the rosy lips gently with his teeth: "Qiuqiu, you are also my best gift."

The sound of tsk tsk raised the body temperature, mobilized the hormones to increase the ambiguity, the atmosphere was beautiful, and the breathing of the two became heavier.

Mu Qingqiu rubbed the tip of his nose lightly against the other party, and murmured: "Today is your birthday, whatever you want, I will satisfy you."

"Anything is fine?"

"Well... anything is fine, you can be on it."

"That's not necessary, but... I think you... use your mouth and help me, can you?"

"Of course you can, as long as you don't dislike it." Mu Qingqiu said with a slanted smile.
