Qingqiu [Transmigration Book]
Chapter 113 The third wish
Feedback to the last report of the day, Xu Zhixian turned off the computer, packed his things and prepared to leave.After all, today is a special day, and he wants to go home early.
Passing by the flower shop in the alley, Xu Zhixian bought a bunch of white orchids. He remembered that Mu Qingqiu said he liked it last Tuesday.
The white flowers were wrapped in cowhide, and they swayed gently with Xu Zhixian's footsteps returning home.
The moment he opened the wooden door, the thunderous classical symphony in the room came to his ears, Xu Zhixian looked up at the closed study door on the second floor, sighed softly, put the flowers on the coffee table, into the kitchen.
There were a few grains of unfilled fried rice left in the pot, and the used bowls and chopsticks were randomly thrown into the dishwasher.
fine.I didn't forget to eat at noon.
"Come back so early today?" The music on the second floor was still playing loudly, and Mu Qingqiu's voice sounded from behind, "Check again. I ate, and I simply made some fried rice. I ate on time at twelve o'clock."
"I see. Thinking today isn't a holiday? I came back early." Xu Zhixian said, rolled up his sleeves and put the oily pan into the dishwasher, then took a rag and began to wipe the stove.
When Mu Qingqiu heard about the festival, he touched the little knot on the back of his head blankly: "What festival? What festival is there in May?"
"Today is May [-]th, you won't forget it, right?" Xu Zhixian rinsed the rag, washed his hands, turned and asked.
Mu Qingqiu whispered about May [-]th, thought carefully, and after a while: "Ah, wedding anniversary." When he remembered that moment, his eyes were full of guilt.
Speaking of which, Mu Qingqiu was the first to celebrate their wedding anniversary.
When the two were on their honeymoon in Germany, they met a golden-married elderly couple. At that time, Mu Qingqiu told Xu Zhixian on a whim that in the future there would be an anniversary on May 5th every year. They didn't have to give any gifts, but they could prepare a bouquet of flowers , or a hot meal.
However, the person who brought up this matter, except for carefully preparing sumptuous dinners, desserts and gifts made by himself in the first year, forgot for the next five years.
On the anniversary day, I was either busy updating the novel or rushing to hand in the draft.
Last year was the worst.Xu Zhixian went to the company that morning for a while and then went back to the apartment. In order to surprise Mu Qingqiu, he deliberately did not tell Qiuqiu that he had taken five days off and planned a seven-day trip to the UK. It was so empty that there was not even a single person.Turning on the phone, I saw a message - a busy person went to Heyuan City to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the new company of Jixing Entertainment Group, and came back at night.
Today is the 7th wedding anniversary.Mu Mou once again forgot.
Xu Zhixian stared at Mu Qingqiu, not wanting to speak.
"Zhixian~ Actually, I didn't forget this time, but I just didn't remember it for a short time. Just..." Mu Qingqiu explained with his thumb and index finger making a gap, "I didn't remember it in such a short moment. Really. I I was thinking about it last night, if you don’t believe me, I’ll find a memo for you, and I prepared to make you a chocolate mousse cake the day before yesterday.”
The phone on the coffee table rang in due course, reminding Mu Qingqiu that it was time to make a cake.
Xu Zhixian picked it up and took a look: the three big words "make a cake" appeared on the screen.And under the three block letters, there is a small sentence in gray imitating Song Dynasty: the third reminder.
"Then you still put your phone downstairs? What's the difference between being reminded and not being reminded?" Xu Zhixian said unforgivingly, but he believed it in his heart.
Because Mu Qingqiu had forgotten for four years in a row, he woke up extremely excitedly to celebrate the morning before the anniversary last year, and brought all the gifts in front of Xu Zhixian, only to find out that it was the 15th.
He and Mu Qingqiu are the kind of people who will only think about that one thing once they get busy unless something interrupts them.
"You have to concentrate on your work." Mu Qingqiu quibbled, "You came back early today, let's make cakes together?"
"it is good."
The two big men worked in the kitchen all afternoon, the chocolate lava cake was put in the oven, and Mu Qingqiu started to cook dinner according to the recipe he thought up last night.
When the meal was ready, Xu Zhixian helped serve the dishes only to find that the kitchen was a mess by the two of them.
"Let's pick it up after dinner. The cake will be baked by then." Mu Qingqiu turned off the light in the kitchen, and came out with the last dish.
After dinner, I cleaned up the kitchen. It was still early, which happened to be the time of sunset in Jiangkou City.
Mu Qingqiu held the fragrant chocolate cake and opened the bedroom balcony door. Xu Zhixian was already sitting on the left side of the white wooden swing, with his right hand casually resting on the back of the chair.
"Ah—" Mu Qingqiu held the tray with one hand, and held a piece of cake with the other hand to Xu Zhixian's mouth.
Xu Zhixian took a bite out of Mu Qingqiu's hand, and the sticky chocolate sauce flowed out from the cake, Xu Zhixian didn't hold back for a moment, and a little bit of it stuck to the corner of his mouth.
"There's a lot of sauce, I made it?" Xu Zhixian stuck out his tongue and licked it.
Mu Qingqiu put the plate in the middle, sat down on the right side, leaned against Xu Zhixian's arms, saw that he was still dipped in chocolate, pursed his lips, held back a smile, and wiped the chocolate off his mouth with his hand: "No, this one The ugly one that exploded belongs to you." After speaking, he put his index finger in his mouth and sucked it.
Xu Zhixian didn't care about this little action at all, he just sighed: "I just did one and I still do it like this."
After helping the cook for so many years, his level is still terrible.
"It's okay. It's just too much sauce." Mu Qingqiu comforted.
Mu Qingqiu rested his head on Xu Zhixian's neck, allowing him to swing on the swing, watching the sun sink into the horizon little by little, watching the apricot-yellow clouds change into primrose purple, watching the stars gradually brighten and the moon rise in the east.
City streets are brightly lit.Xu Zhixian suddenly said: "Qiuqiu, I want to resign from the current position of chairman and only get dividends every year."
"Why do you suddenly think so?" The tone was a little surprised, but Mu Qingqiu still lay on his pillow, without turning his head.
"Because I don't need to worry about it anymore, and the company's system is also very perfect. When I am free, I feel like I have nothing to do. And look at you, every time I come home, you are either coding and drawing or supplementing knowledge. It seems that you can't finish every day. "
When Mu Qingqiu heard the second half of the sentence, he immediately sat upright: "Why do I sound like you are blaming me..."
"No." Before he finished speaking, Xu Zhixian interrupted.
He smiled silently, put his right hand on Mu Qingqiu's head, asked him to lean back, and continued: "I just feel that you are living a fulfilling life even if you are always at home. I want to find something more challenging to do."
"for example?"
"I haven't figured it out yet."
Mu Qingqiu tilted his head, Xu Zhixian's eyes looked at the buildings across the river, and the neon lights were reflected in his eyes, as if there were twinkling stars.
"I thought you were going to drive a race car or something."
"I'm old. I can't run anymore." Xu Zhixian said with a smile.
"Then do something you like?" Mu Qingqiu kissed him lightly on the cheek.
"I don't have specific hobbies like you. What I learned since I was a child is related to managing companies or interpersonal relationships."
Mu Qingqiu recalled the years between the two of them, and Zhixian was indeed either working or spending time with him.There was never a time when I was doing something by myself.
Suddenly, there was a hint of distress. It is clear that the wealthy family has the resources and ability to find high-quality teachers, but the knowledge that Xu Zhixian comes into contact with is for the company's development and to manage his contacts. Nothing is for his own pure joy.
"Then look for it slowly. If the company doesn't want to take care of it, just leave it alone. It's okay, even if there is another wave of financial crisis, I can afford you."
Xu Zhixian said with a smile: "The financial crisis in 19 was not too bad for Linda, okay? The capital flow recovered in less than three months."
"That's why my stable royalty income allows you to give it a go." Mu Qingqiu joked.
"Yes Yes Yes."
It sounded quite helpless, but Xu Zhixian never told Mu Qingqiu that his company during that time really made the anxious self much more rational.And because there are no emotional factors, I was able to stabilize the company's debt ratio from 70% to the industry level in such a short period of time, and was the first to get rid of the influence of the general environment.
In contrast, Bai Yu, who is more aggressive in his peers, was not so lucky, but he also reversed the predicament within a year.
Xu Zhixian completed the handover of the position within a month, and then stayed at home every day without work, enjoying the bonus.
It's not like I'm doing nothing, I try to make a cake occasionally, and I read novels written by Mu Qingqiu from time to time, but I hardly ever go out.
One day, after Mu Qingqiu revised the complete novel and handed it over to the editor of the publishing house, he went downstairs to drink water but found that there was no one at home, and there was only a note on the coffee table that said "go out, come back in the afternoon".
The next day also went out.
Day three too.
Mu Qingqiu thought that Zhixian had found something challenging, so he didn't think much about it.
But a week later, something was wrong with his post: Why are there so many orphanage pamphlets at home?
That night, Mu Qingqiu mentioned this matter at the dinner table.
Xu Zhixian hesitated for a long time before elaborating:
Time goes back to last week.Xu Zhixian was idle and bored, looked at the Twitter on the other side of the sea, and Frank posted a complaint, saying that helping to take care of the cousin's children is very troublesome.He remembered that last week this person was happily showing off his baby.In a blink of an eye, this is all angry emoji.
Xu Zhixian suddenly remembered that when he was a teenager, he had imagined that after taking control of the Linda Group, he would form an ordinary family with the person he loved to fill the vacancy when he was a child.
But when he realized that the person he liked was Mu Qingqiu, he gave up this idea.She also thought about adopting, but when she and Mu Qingqiu met children outside, Qiuqiu always avoided them, and was very impatient with naughty ones.
He vaguely felt that Qiuqiu didn't like children, and he was too busy managing the company to have time.
But now that I am free, I have plenty of time.
Therefore, Xu Zhixian contacted several orphanages to understand the situation.Also, by the way, think about whether you are really willing to spend time and experience with your children.
"Because it's not confirmed yet, I didn't tell you." Xu Zhixian had already put his chopsticks aside, and the rice in the bowl did not move at all.
"I just asked, why are you so nervous, as if you cheated. The food is cold." Mu Qingqiu was a little regretful, and he would have said it after dinner if he knew it.
Mu Qingqiu noticed that Zhixian liked children very early on.
But Xu Zhixian never brought up the topic of adoption, so he didn't take the initiative to ask.
For children, Mu Qingqiu can't say that he hates them. Although he has encountered some disgusting children, he has also seen polite and sensible ones.But after all, it takes a lot of energy to raise a child, and he doesn't want to spend too much on it.
"Are you sure now?" Mu Qingqiu asked.
"I'm a little sure. But if you don't want to, then don't adopt it." When he said the second half of the sentence, Xu Zhixian's expression was very firm.
"Are you sure you've thought it through? It's said to make up for childhood, but the child will grow up after all. Do you understand what I mean?" Mu Qingqiu asked.
Because he has written several novels about family affection, and Xu Zhixian likes children, Mu Qingqiu has a little understanding of this aspect.He has always been a cautious person, and he doesn't want Xu Zhixian to be too pampered for personal reasons, which will be ruined in the end.
"I understand." Xu Zhixian smiled knowingly, since Mu Qingqiu understood, it meant that he didn't hate children as much as he thought.
"Then... do you wish to have someone connected with your own blood more than adopting one?" Mu Qingqiu suddenly asked, thinking about what happened a long time ago.
"I expected it, but don't you have that kind of technology now?" Xu Zhixian asked in confusion, not knowing why Mu Qingqiu asked such a question.
"If you could, would you want a boy or a girl?"
Xu Zhixian half-baffled and half-answered: "...anything is fine."
"What's the name? Whatever your last name?"
"Your. Haven't thought of a name yet..."
"Then do you want a little more with you?"
"Huh??? This kind of thing doesn't matter, right?" Xu Zhixian frowned, "You have a request? Do you want to go to the orphanage with me tomorrow? Get along with the children?"
"Come with me to the study." Mu Qingqiu took Xu Zhixian's hand and went upstairs.
When walking up the stairs, Mu Qingqiu suddenly asked: "Do you remember what I told you about my original gender?"
"Remember. It is said that the so-called high-dimensional creatures have met your requirements."
"Yeah. But I didn't tell the whole story at the time." Mu Qingqiu took out a safe from the bookcase, lost 0316, and opened it to find a piece of white paper and an ordinary pen.
"Actually, at that time He offered to help me fulfill three wishes, but I only used two." Mu Qingqiu carefully took out a pen and paper, "This is the third one."
Xu Zhixian was a little surprised, not because of these mysterious things, but because he didn't expect Qiuqiu to be willing to use such a precious item to help him.
After Mu Qingqiu finished speaking, he pulled out the cap of the pen and started to write.
"Wait." Xu Zhixian grabbed Mu Qingqiu's wrist, "It's not necessary. What if you need anything in the future?"
He knew how much courage it took for Mu Qingqiu to make such a decision. For Qiuqiu, this was a universal card that could turn the whole situation around.Expecting to form an ordinary family that is completely his own is not worth such a big fight.
"It's worth it." Mu Qingqiu looked into Xu Zhixian's eyes. Having been with Xu Zhixian for ten years, he knew exactly what Zhixian was thinking, "You think your wish is ordinary, but it is very important to me. Maybe in the future There are times when it's needed, but I think it's more needed now."
After finishing speaking, Mu Qingqiu made a third wish.
After some exercise, Mu Qingqiu fell asleep contentedly in Xu Zhixian's arms.
Dimly, he found himself in a vast expanse of whiteness.
"Yo. You finally made your third wish. I thought you would use it when your lover's company was in debt."
The voice was somewhat familiar, and Mu Qingqiu thought for a long time before he remembered that this was the advanced system.
"However, you can't be too greedy. Don't think that you can achieve it together just by writing on a piece of paper." The advanced system appeared in front of him, and he shook the white paper in his hand, on which was written a line: Own and Xu Zhixian of blood.Followed by a small line of words, if you don't look carefully, you can't read it clearly: Gu Zhixian will be happy and healthy for the rest of his life.
"Looking at your previous actions, I won't punish you. But you have to choose one." The advanced system stood quietly in front of him, waiting for his choice.
"Sure enough. Let's be the first one." Mu Qingqiu smiled.
"Okay, I see. It will happen in a few days."
"Wait." Mu Qingqiu said, "By what method?"
"A way you can accept." The advanced system's voice was steady, like a judge reading out the trial results, without any emotion.
"Okay. Thank you." After thanking Mu Qingqiu habitually, he waited for the advanced system to put him back.
The expressionless system suddenly smiled: "Only one wish can come true. However, you can rest assured about the second one. Goodbye."
Before Mu Qingqiu could recall it, he realized that he had woken up. There was a little bit of light shining through the curtains, and it was early morning.
"Boom, boom, boom"
The glass doors of the balcony slammed.
Xu Zhixian heard movement in his sleep, opened his eyes slightly, and saw that Mu Qingqiu had got off the bed in his pajama pants, and there were several obvious red marks on the shoulder blades.
"Gah!"
Mu Qingqiu's hands paused, and he slowly opened the curtains, only to see a fat, white bird with a little red on top of his head, holding a cloth bag in his mouth, and landed on his balcony.
"Gah!"
The bird called again and put down the cloth bag gently.
The cloth came loose, and there was a little baby lying quietly inside, sucking its thumb, and giggling when it saw Mu Qingqiu and Xu Zhixian behind him.
Xu Zhixian, who was still drowsy just now, immediately fell asleep, stepped onto the balcony, and carefully hugged the baby girl. The moment his skin touched, he felt a certain connection.
And Mu Qingqiu looked at the bird with smooth feathers in a daze: ...It turned out to be this way? ! !
The wrap might be uncomfortable, and it was kicked out by the baby, along with a birth certificate and instructions.
After the fat bird confirmed that the two had "received the goods", they flapped their wings and flew into the clouds.
"What name should I choose?" Xu Zhixian looked at the child who was holding his index finger tightly with a smile on his face, and looked up at Mu Qingqiu again.
"I don't know." Mu Qingqiu took away the birth certificate, and there was a slight curve in the corner of his mouth that he didn't notice.
This can't be named casually like a character in a novel.
The author has something to say: Thank you for seeing the little cuties here, I love you~
The whole country is dropping in temperature recently, please keep warm and don't catch a cold
good night
(Welcome to pay attention to my column, I will drop short stories from time to time~)
Passing by the flower shop in the alley, Xu Zhixian bought a bunch of white orchids. He remembered that Mu Qingqiu said he liked it last Tuesday.
The white flowers were wrapped in cowhide, and they swayed gently with Xu Zhixian's footsteps returning home.
The moment he opened the wooden door, the thunderous classical symphony in the room came to his ears, Xu Zhixian looked up at the closed study door on the second floor, sighed softly, put the flowers on the coffee table, into the kitchen.
There were a few grains of unfilled fried rice left in the pot, and the used bowls and chopsticks were randomly thrown into the dishwasher.

"I see. Thinking today isn't a holiday? I came back early." Xu Zhixian said, rolled up his sleeves and put the oily pan into the dishwasher, then took a rag and began to wipe the stove.
When Mu Qingqiu heard about the festival, he touched the little knot on the back of his head blankly: "What festival? What festival is there in May?"
"Today is May [-]th, you won't forget it, right?" Xu Zhixian rinsed the rag, washed his hands, turned and asked.
Mu Qingqiu whispered about May [-]th, thought carefully, and after a while: "Ah, wedding anniversary." When he remembered that moment, his eyes were full of guilt.
Speaking of which, Mu Qingqiu was the first to celebrate their wedding anniversary.
When the two were on their honeymoon in Germany, they met a golden-married elderly couple. At that time, Mu Qingqiu told Xu Zhixian on a whim that in the future there would be an anniversary on May 5th every year.

Mu Qingqiu rested his head on Xu Zhixian's neck, allowing him to swing on the swing, watching the sun sink into the horizon little by little, watching the apricot-yellow clouds change into primrose purple, watching the stars gradually brighten and the moon rise in the east.

After Mu Qingqiu finished speaking, he pulled out the cap of the pen and started to write.
"Wait." Xu Zhixian grabbed Mu Qingqiu's wrist, "It's not necessary. What if you need anything in the future?"
He knew how much courage it took for Mu Qingqiu to make such a decision. For Qiuqiu, this was a universal card that could turn the whole situation around.Expecting to form an ordinary family that is completely his own is not worth such a big fight.
"It's worth it." Mu Qingqiu looked into Xu Zhixian's eyes. Having been with Xu Zhixian for ten years, he knew exactly what Zhixian was thinking, "You think your wish is ordinary, but it is very important to me. Maybe in the future There are times when it's needed, but I think it's more needed now."
After finishing speaking, Mu Qingqiu made a third wish.
After some exercise, Mu Qingqiu fell asleep contentedly in Xu Zhixian's arms.
Dimly, he found himself in a vast expanse of whiteness.
"Yo. You finally made your third wish. I thought you would use it when your lover's company was in debt."
The voice was somewhat familiar, and Mu Qingqiu thought for a long time before he remembered that this was the advanced system.
"However, you can't be too greedy. Don't think that you can achieve it together just by writing on a piece of paper." The advanced system appeared in front of him, and he shook the white paper in his hand, on which was written a line: Own and Xu Zhixian of blood.Followed by a small line of words, if you don't look carefully, you can't read it clearly: Gu Zhixian will be happy and healthy for the rest of his life.
"Looking at your previous actions, I won't punish you. But you have to choose one." The advanced system stood quietly in front of him, waiting for his choice.
"Sure enough. Let's be the first one." Mu Qingqiu smiled.
"Okay, I see. It will happen in a few days."
"Wait." Mu Qingqiu said, "By what method?"
"A way you can accept." The advanced system's voice was steady, like a judge reading out the trial results, without any emotion.
"Okay. Thank you." After thanking Mu Qingqiu habitually, he waited for the advanced system to put him back.
The expressionless system suddenly smiled: "Only one wish can come true. However, you can rest assured about the second one. Goodbye."
Before Mu Qingqiu could recall it, he realized that he had woken up. There was a little bit of light shining through the curtains, and it was early morning.
"Boom, boom, boom"
The glass doors of the balcony slammed.
Xu Zhixian heard movement in his sleep, opened his eyes slightly, and saw that Mu Qingqiu had got off the bed in his pajama pants, and there were several obvious red marks on the shoulder blades.
"Gah!"
Mu Qingqiu's hands paused, and he slowly opened the curtains, only to see a fat, white bird with a little red on top of his head, holding a cloth bag in his mouth, and landed on his balcony.
"Gah!"
The bird called again and put down the cloth bag gently.
The cloth came loose, and there was a little baby lying quietly inside, sucking its thumb, and giggling when it saw Mu Qingqiu and Xu Zhixian behind him.
Xu Zhixian, who was still drowsy just now, immediately fell asleep, stepped onto the balcony, and carefully hugged the baby girl. The moment his skin touched, he felt a certain connection.
And Mu Qingqiu looked at the bird with smooth feathers in a daze: ...It turned out to be this way? ! !
The wrap might be uncomfortable, and it was kicked out by the baby, along with a birth certificate and instructions.
After the fat bird confirmed that the two had "received the goods", they flapped their wings and flew into the clouds.
"What name should I choose?" Xu Zhixian looked at the child who was holding his index finger tightly with a smile on his face, and looked up at Mu Qingqiu again.
"I don't know." Mu Qingqiu took away the birth certificate, and there was a slight curve in the corner of his mouth that he didn't notice.
This can't be named casually like a character in a novel.
