On the day when Kang Zhier turned 24, the whole family was trying to help him out, but the person involved didn't care too much.

In the bedroom, Kang Zhier was lying on his back on the bed, looking at the cream gray ceiling trim, with a blank expression on his face.

"I actually don't understand what's bothering you."

On the sofa, Irene lay casually, raised her legs, flipped through the nature magazine in her hand, and asked Kang Zhier: "Is liking such a complicated thing?"

After she finished speaking, Kang Zhier silently put his forearm on his forehead.

"Before I went to the south, wasn't I very sure of my mind?" He put his other hand on his chest, his expression was empty, and he opened his mouth, "Then why in such a short time, I Shaken or even changed?"

"Then," Eileen paused, then answered him, "it proves that you like Elvis."

Kang Zhier put his hand on his chest, feeling the roar in his chest when he spoke.

"In this case," he asked Irene, "is it possible that after I am sure that I like Elvis, if I meet someone more special, I will be attracted to another person in a short time?"

"Like something so casual?" he asked Eileen.

Hearing this, Erin laughed.

"Why do you change your mind so easily?" She teased Kang Zhier.

Her words did not get Kang Zhier's response.Irene thought for a while, put down the magazine, sat up from the sofa, crossed her legs and analyzed with Kang Zhier: "You suspect that your liking is very casual, and you think you are not worthy of Elvis, so you stole it from Windsor overnight. run back, right?"

Kang Zhier seemed to be asleep, and it took a long time to reply her.

"Ah."

"You feel like you're a bad boy, like you fall in love easily."

"But," Irene sorted out with him logically, "in the past few years, there have been many suitors around you. They are all excellent and gentle, so why can't they shake your heart? ?”

"Because," Kang Zhier raised his hand silently, pressed his heart, and said in a daze, "because..."

"Because among these people, only Elvis is special to you." Irene said straight away.

"What about Brother Qing? Isn't he very special to me?"

While Kang Zhier was speaking, the palm pressing on his heart became harder and harder.He was looking for an answer, and he felt that he was very close to that answer.With a little more force, he'll find the answer.

"Isn't it precisely because Brother Qing Zai is special that I have firmly refused to accept others all these years?"

Irene was brought in by Kang Zhier.

"That's right..." She propped her chin in thought.

After a while, she suddenly found a way to answer the question.

"Otherwise, you go on dates with two people separately, and you can stay with whoever feels better?"

Hearing Irene's words, the clear thoughts in Kang Zhier's heart dissipated instantly.Discouraged, he took his palms away from his heart and turned his head to the side weakly.

"Irene, you are simply a devil."

Soon it was evening, and the guests invited by the Kang family arrived one after another. Even though Kang Zhier was not very interested, he followed his sisters politely and thoughtfully to greet the guests.

Most of the people who came were Kang Zhier's classmates in China, as well as family playmates he had known since childhood.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, Kang Zhier, surrounded by his parents and sisters, performed the ceremony of blowing out the candles.

Afterwards, the servants distributed the cut cakes to the guests one by one.

Kang Zhier leaned against the long table, scraping the cake on the plate with a fork in a disinterested manner.Suddenly, Bai Qing walked up to him and asked him softly: "Xiaozhi, what's the matter?"

Hearing Bai Qingzai's voice, Kang Zhier came back to his senses in a panic, and met Bai Qingzai's sight.

"what?"

Bai Qing was looking at him with a serious face, looked at him and asked: "You seem to be absent-minded all night, did something happen?"

"No," Kang Zhier quickly shook his head, and then gave a rather pale explanation, "It's too hot today."

"You don't have heatstroke, do you?"

As he spoke, Bai Qing raised his hand, making a gesture to touch his forehead.

Kang Zhier subconsciously took half a step back, avoiding Bai Qingzai.Bai Qingzai's right hand stopped in the air, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little subtle.

"It's not heatstroke," Kang Zhier looked at Bai Qingzai with a smile, and explained to him, "It's just that the room is a bit stuffy."

"That's good."

Bai Qingzai didn't seem to care, and put his hand down, and the strange atmosphere dissipated.

At this time, Irene suddenly came to Kang Zhier's side and stuffed a gift box into his hand.

"It's rare this year." Kang Zhier was a little flattered as he held the gift box, "I know you can give me a gift on time."

"Just take it when you see it." Irene raised her chin proudly and told him, "Others might not be able to receive such a precious gift."

"Yes, yes," Kang Zhier quickly echoed, "It is my honor to receive the gift from Miss Irene."

"That's not it," Irene was very pleased with this compliment, "Who made you Miss Ben's best friend?"

"Best friend," Kang Zhier leaned over and whispered to Bai Qingzai, "I still forget to bring my birthday present to the scene every year."

The two of them were whispering, when suddenly Irene spotted them sharply.

"Hey, you guys are secretly biting your ears again."

Irene pulled Kang Zhier away from Bai Qing, and stepped forward to explain her position to him: "Xiao Zhi's best friend is me."

Bai Qing smiled and nodded: "Of course."

Irene suddenly remembered something, so she asked him: "Brother Qingzai, what gift did you give Xiaozhi this year?"

"I haven't given Xiaozhi a present this year." Bai Qing answered her truthfully.

Irene seemed to have heard something very strange, and turned to complain to Kang Zhier: "Look, he has become me this year."

Kang Zhier couldn't laugh or cry.

With a pleasant smile on his face, Bai Qing slowly explained: "This year's birthday present is not suitable for bringing to the venue, I will take Xiaozhi to see it tomorrow."

Hearing this, Irene covered her mouth with her hands in surprise, and said loudly, "Didn't he buy you a building?"

As soon as Irene finished speaking, the living room suddenly fell silent.

Kang Zhier thought that Irene was Irene's overreaction and attracted everyone's attention. Just as he was about to turn around and apologize to the others, he suddenly heard a voice behind him.

"Xiao Zhi."

Kang Zhier's fingers trembled slightly, and his heart was beating low.After calming down for a while, he slowly turned his body around.

The next moment, he saw those familiar black eyes.

Wearing a full black suit and holding a black gift box in his hand, Elvis stood in front of Kang Zhier formally and decently.

Kang Zhier was in a daze because of his outstanding appearance and attire, and when he came back to his senses, he noticed that there was a slight tiredness hidden in Elvis' calm and focused eyes.

"Ohmygod." Irene on the side silently covered her mouth with her hands.

Everyone's surprised eyes focused on Elvis, and no one thought that he would appear here tonight.

For Elvis' arrival, Kang Zhier was no less surprised than others.He couldn't believe it and took a step closer. When he came up to him, he raised his face and asked Elvis, "Elvis, why are you here?"

"Tonight is your birthday," Elvis looked down at him while handing him the gift in his hand, "I want to give you the gift I bought."

"Thank you."

Kang Zhier took the gift from Elvis, raised his head, and observed him with some concern.

"Are you okay, Elvis?" Kang Zhier looked at his expression and pointed it out, "You look tired?"

"I've just finished work," Elvis replied, "and rushed from work to the airport."

Hearing this, Kang Zhier was startled for a while.It took a moment for him to react.

"So, you left the company and flew here without even returning home?"

Thinking about it, he subconsciously put his hand on Elvis' arm, and asked him with concern: "Have you eaten yet?"

"I ate something on the plane and I'm not hungry now."

Under the crystal light, Elvis lowered his face slightly, his dark eyes looked gentle and pure.

"Just a little tired." He told Kang Zhier.

"Are you tired, Elvis?"

"I--"

Kang Zhier approached Elvis again, and when he was about to speak, he suddenly heard Bai Qingzai's voice next to his ears.

"Long time no see, Elvis."

Holding Elvis' gift, Kang Zhier turned his face unresponsively, and found that Bai Qing had stood by his side at some point.

With his usual politeness, he held out his right hand to Elvis.

Elvis shifted his gaze to Bai Qingzai's face, looked at him calmly, and held out his right hand to shake hands with him.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

"I really didn't expect you to appear here tonight. Everyone was very pleasantly surprised." Bai Qingzai seemed completely unaware of the strange atmosphere between the two of them, and greeted Elvis very friendly.

In contrast, Elvis's reaction was much reserved and polite.

"is it?"

"Elvis, today is also your birthday." Bai Qing smiled kindly and wished Elvis sincerely, "Happy birthday to you."

Elvis nodded slightly: "Thank you."

Kang Zhier stood aside silently, feeling a little weird in his heart.

At this moment, Kang Zhier's parents—Kang Zhongrong and Chen Nanxi came down from upstairs.

When they saw Elvis standing in the middle of the living room, both of them had expressions of surprise on their faces.

"Elvis." Kang Zhongrong spoke first.

Elvis turned his face away, nodded towards them, then turned around and told Kang Zhier: "I'm going to say hello to my uncle and aunt."

"it is good."

After Kang Zhier nodded, Elvis turned around and walked towards the Kang couple.

After Elvis left, Irene silently moved to Kang Zhier's side, and concluded in his ear: "Elvis, I have fallen in love with you forever."

"Xiaozhi," Bai Qingzai looked at him brightly, "It seems that the relationship between you and Elvis has improved a lot during this time."

Kang Zhier felt a little guilty, and replied vaguely to Bai Qingzai: "We have resolved some misunderstandings."

"That's great." Bai Qingzai agreed.

After Elvis left, some playmates came up to talk to Kang Zhier one after another, and basically everyone would ask about his friendship with Elvis.

Regarding these problems, Kang Zhier always dealt with them vaguely.

When he came back to his senses, he found that his parents were no longer standing in their original positions, and Elvis was gone.Kang Zhier became a little nervous, looking around the living room, looking for traces of Elvis.

Finally, he spotted Elvis at the gate ready to leave.

Seeing that Elvis was about to leave, Kang Zhier was in a hurry and ran towards the gate.

Elvis walked a little faster, and when Kang Zhier ran to the gate, he shouted and chased him.

"Elvis, Elvis..."

Finally, he stopped Elvis on the garden walk.

Elvis turned around, looking surprised to see him running out of the house.

"Xiaozhi, why did you run out?"

Kang Zhier was still holding his gift in his arms at this time, because the shoes he was wearing were uncomfortable, he staggered to him like a child, raised his head and asked him: "Elvis, what are you doing?" Are you leaving?"

"Xiao Zhi, I came here to give you a birthday present." Elvis replied, "Now the present is in your hands."

Kang Zhier looked up at the dark night sky, then looked at him, and asked softly, "Are you going to fly back tonight?"

"No." Elvis shook his head.

"It's getting late, there's no flight back." He told Kang Zhier, "I'm also a little tired, so I'll stay here in Yicui for one night first."

Yicui is a five-star hotel chain under the Lake Group.Not far from Kang Zhier's house, there was one.

Hearing this, Kang Zhier breathed a sigh of relief, nodded blankly and said, "That's good."

After he finished speaking, Elvis did not continue.Both of them suddenly became very quiet.

Kang Zhier raised his head, and saw that the moonlight above Elvis was hazy, glowing with mother-of-pearl iridescence.

"I'm sorry Elvis, I didn't prepare a gift for you." Kang Zhier told him a little guilty.

At this time, they stood very close to each other.Elvis put his hand on his face, fingers slowly stroking his cheek.

"It's okay, Xiao Zhi. I'm already very happy to see you on this day."

The movement of Elvis stroking his cheek was magical, just like the baby Kangzhi experienced when he was put to sleep, he moved his feet unconsciously, and leaned his head against Elvis' chest.

Elvis took the little him into his arms and gently stroked his shoulders.Every finger is extremely docile and full of cherishment.

At this point, Elvis finally said the sentence he wanted to say the most.

"Xiaozhi, I miss you so much."
