Xu Xi showed a slight smile, and said again: "Miss Song... no, Miss Nan is here today. She said that your birthday is coming soon, so she hung a picture in the study room, and said yes, a gift from fans."

"Well, I know, she told me."

"Oh..." Xu Xi didn't know what to say.

Sheng Huaijin paused for a while, then continued: "I'm 29, ten years older than you. I didn't think I was old at first, but sometimes when I look at you, I think how I'm getting old so fast."

"I'm nine years old, and I'll be twenty soon." Xu Xi hurriedly said, "Huaijin, do you want a gift for your birthday? I can give it to you."

"I don't need any gifts, you gave me yourself, isn't that enough?"

Xu Xi felt as if eating candy was very sweet, she smiled for a while, and then said: "That's not okay, I want to give you a gift as a souvenir."

"Okay, then my baby can give me whatever she wants."

"You can tell. I saw that painting and thought it was very beautiful. I thought... I couldn't think of anything better."

"You are different from a movie fan. I will happily accept whatever you give me."

Xu Xi whispered, "Really? Is everything okay?"

"Yes, but the gift I want most is you. Tie a bow on yourself and give it to me. You don't wear anything else."

Sheng Huaijin's serious tone made Xu Xi a little embarrassed: "No, no, I, I will choose a gift carefully."

"Okay, then I'll look forward to what my baby will give me." Sheng Huaijin kissed Xu Xi's mouth forcefully, and said, "Okay, I'm sleepy, go to sleep, be good."

Xu Xi nodded with a smile, and the two hugged each other, and soon fell into a sweet sleep.

******

Xu Xi struggled with what gift to buy for Sheng Huaijin for several days, and one day when he was not at work, he went out for a stroll, unexpectedly, he came across a newly opened jewelry store not far from the community.

Xu Xi originally just glanced at it, but was caught by a watch on the poster at the door, and suddenly stopped in her tracks.The style of this watch is very simple, the white dial is trimmed with light gold edges, and the strap is a black dark pattern belt.At first glance, it seems very low-key, but the small details are very thoughtful. There is another rhinestone on the twelve o'clock scale.

This watch, Sheng Huaijin, would definitely look great on it.Sheng Huaijin's slender fingers emerged in Xu Xi's mind, and the sleeves of his white shirt were neatly rolled up, revealing the smooth and graceful lines of his forearms.Such a beautiful hand, if you bring the watch you gave me...

Xu Xi just felt that she couldn't wait to buy this watch and give it to Sheng Huaijin.As soon as he entered the door, the tall male shop assistant kept staring at him, making Xu Xi feel a little shy.I had to quickly tell the clerk that he wanted the one on the poster.

The clerk praised Xu Xi's vision vigorously, saying that this is the latest model and that it is still on sale.When paying, Xu Xi looked at the bill and was shocked. The clerk said there would be a [-]% discount, and after the [-]% discount, the price would be [-].

Xu Xi suspected that he had read it wrong. He only remembered the electronic watch he had bought before. The time was very accurate and it was only two yuan.

Seeing Xu Xi's expression, the clerk quickly persuaded him: "If you think the price is expensive, I can recommend you a few other models, which are also very beautiful."

Xu Xi shook her head.When buying gifts for Sheng Huaijin, he didn't care about the price, he just thought it was suitable.

"No need, just this one, it's very beautiful." Xu Xi gently slid across the dial with the tip of her index finger, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth unconsciously.

The clerk looked at him, laughed too, and said, "Let me wrap it up for you. Is it a gift?"

Xu Xi nodded and said, "Yes."

The clerk carefully packed the watch into the dark blue box, selected a piece of wrapping paper of the same color as the box, and skillfully wrapped the gift box.While doing it, he chatted with Xu Xi: "Are you still a student? Is this for a classmate?"

Xu Xi rubbed her cropped hair amusedly. Ever since he cut his hair, many people said he was a student.And he always wears a sports backpack, which looks like a student.

"No, I've been working for a long time."

"You're kidding me, you look at most 15 years old."

Xu Xi said seriously: "I'm almost twenty."

The clerk said in embarrassment: "Ah, it's bigger than me."

Xu Xi didn't answer any more, and watched intently as the clerk wrapped the box, then tied a pink ribbon on it and tied a bow.

Xu Xi was stunned for a second, then suddenly burst out laughing.What Huai Jin said was to tie such a bow tie on herself?

The clerk didn't know what Xu Xi was thinking, but this beautiful smile made people flustered. He had never seen such a good-looking boy, and his clothes were exquisite and well-matched. He looked like a rich man. The little boy is good-looking and dazzling.

Xu Xi laughed for a while, only to realize that the clerk was looking at him straight.Xu Xi blushed a little, and took a few steps back in embarrassment.

The clerk came back to his senses, smiled politely, and asked, "Excuse me, do you pay by card or cash?"

"Cash." Xu Xi took out carefully wrapped newspaper money from her bag, counted it and handed it to the clerk.I took the gift from the clerk with great anticipation.Then, after hesitating for a long time, he finally plucked up the courage to ask, "That... Excuse me, can you give me one more... ribbon."

After saying this, Xu Xi could feel her face burning wildly.

The clerk was a little surprised, but still didn't ask any further questions, and brought another piece of silk to Xu Xi.

Xu Xi hugged this thing to her chest, as if she was holding her full heart.There were still a few days before Sheng Huaijin's birthday, Xu Xi wanted to wait until that day before giving him the gift, and after going home, he thought for a long time before deciding where to hide the gift.There is a small cabinet in the cloakroom filled with clothes that Sheng Huaijin doesn't like, and he never moves them.

Xu Xi solemnly hid the gift there.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day before Sheng Huaijin's birthday.When Xu Xi came home from get off work, she deliberately took a long bus ride to find an old cake shop.Xu Xi still vaguely remembers that when his biological father was still there when he was young, the family of three often passed by the cake shop. It appeared many times in the dream.Later, Xu Xi made money by himself, but he was reluctant to spend money to buy it.Xu Xi chose a small chocolate cake in the cake shop, it was just right for the two of them to eat.

After returning home, Xu Xi took out the gifts and cakes and placed them on the floor in front of the French window of the bedroom, covering them with a square scarf.

Sheng Huaijin has been very busy recently, and usually comes home late.Xu Xi was lying on the bed, turning on the warm yellow desk lamp beside the bed, nervous and looking forward to waiting, and after eleven o'clock, Sheng Huaijin finally came back.

Xu Xi immediately jumped out of bed happily and greeted him.

Sheng Huaijin patted Xu Xi's head and said with a smile, "Didn't I tell you to go to bed early? Why are you waiting again?"

"I can't sleep by myself." Xu Xi pulled Sheng Huaijin to sit on the sofa, "Let's go to sleep later, I'm not sleepy yet."

The tenderness in Sheng Huaijin's eyes enveloped Xu Xi like a warm wind, and she replied softly: "Okay." After saying that, he kicked off the slippers, went to bed and hugged Xu Xi, the two of them chatted one after another, watching the boring variety show.

Sheng Huaijin felt that as long as Xu Xi was within his sight, even if he quietly did nothing, he could feel at ease.

Xu Xi kept staring at the clock on the TV, and couldn't concentrate when talking to Sheng Huaijin.Sheng Huaijin only thought that he was tired, and gradually slowed down his tone, as if he was coaxing a child to sleep.

Xu Xi didn't speak for a while, Sheng Huaijin thought he had fallen asleep, and was about to turn over and get up to wash up, when the pointer just reached twelve o'clock.

Xu Xi grabbed Sheng Huaijin's hand and whispered in his ear, "Happy birthday."

Sheng Huaijin was a little unresponsive, and looked at Xu Xi in a daze.

Xu Xi showed a big smile and said, "Huaijin, happy birthday."

Sheng Huaijin felt as if there was a warm current surging in her heart, and she was immediately moved. She hugged Xu Xi tightly and said, "Xiao Xi, thank you."

Xu Xihui hugged him and said excitedly, "I'm the first."

"What first?"

"I want to be the first to say happy birthday to you on your birthday, and I have prepared a gift for you."

Sheng Huaijin's mood at this moment is a little hard to describe.How should I put it, he usually looks down on such petty things, aren't these the favorites of underage girls?He should find it ridiculous.

But Xu Xi's silly obsessions are inexplicably heartwarming.Sheng Huaijin felt funny and happy again, and was looking forward to his gift.

Xu Xi got up, turned on the antique chandelier on the top of the bedroom, and the room was brightly lit.He opened the square scarf, revealing the gift he carefully prepared, and said, "Huaijin, come and have a look."

Sheng Huaijin smiled and said, "Okay, let me see what you have prepared for me. Ah, there are cakes and gift boxes."

The two faced each other, sitting cross-legged on the tatami mat on the floor.Xu Xi bit her lower lip, and handed the gift to Sheng Huaijin full of anticipation.

Sheng Huaijin also showed an expectant expression in cooperation, and opened the gift box, revealing the watch carefully selected by Xu Xi.

This is not an expensive watch, and Sheng Huaijin can almost estimate its value at a glance.The style is also well-behaved, but it is inlaid with a rhinestone, and the small details are unique.

Xu Xi looked nervously at Sheng Huaijin's expression.

Sheng Huaijin glanced at Xu Xi, smiled immediately, and said, "Thank you. I like it very much, it's very special."

Xu Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately smiled: "It's just as long as you like it."

"Of course I like it." Sheng Huaijin took off the watch on his wrist and threw it on the small bookshelf on the floor, then straightened his hand and continued, "Come on, put it on for me. "

Xu Xi almost had a pious attitude, and carefully put the watch strap he bought on Sheng Huaijin's hand.

Sheng Huaijin shook and asked, "Does it look good?"

"It looks good!" Xu Xi replied immediately.

"I think it looks good too." Sheng Huaijin smiled.He is not a person who is obsessed with luxury goods, and sometimes these chic and delicate things can also please him.Just like little things like Xu Xi, beautiful and cheap.
