Chapter 166 Happy Birthday to You
Chapter 166 Happy Birthday to You
The restaurant, which was originally full of joy, suddenly became silent. Nangong Jin stared at the gift on the table with red eyes. Unlike Zhou Ziqian's, it looked a little yellow and old, but Nangong Jin couldn't take his eyes away!
Zhou Xingyang just squatted on the ground quietly, picked up the gifts scattered on the ground one by one, and put them in a shopping bag!
Although he looked unusually calm on the surface, the loss in his eyes had already betrayed his state of mind. He sat back in his seat silently, his eyes fixed on the gift. After all, he was still no match for him!
"Where is he?" Nangong Jin asked softly while looking at the gift!
Zhou Ziqian looked at Nangong Jin, trying his best to control his emotions, "This gift was left here by Lao Wu on your birthday six years ago. I thought I couldn't waste his kindness, so I took it out on my own initiative!"
His voice was gentle, but it made Nangong Jin unable to control her tears, which fell down. Six years ago, that was the night she left without saying goodbye. It was her twentieth birthday, and she didn't expect that they all remembered her birthday!
Perhaps in order not to make them worry, Nangong Jin quickly controlled his emotions, wiped his tears with his hands, and then smiled, "I... am so hungry, brother, let's eat first!"
As she said this, she carefully picked up the gift and put it in her bag, while Zhou Ziqian's gift was placed together with the other gifts!
Her action was completely subconscious, but in Zhou Ziqian's eyes, it deeply hurt his heart!
"Okay, let's eat! Aunt Wang, serve the food quickly, the young lady is hungry!"
Nangong Jin looked like she was starving. She kept stuffing food into her mouth. Her eyes were wide open, and she kept chewing without saying a word!
The others watched silently, but no one dared to expose her disguise. She was obviously very sad, but she had to pretend that she didn't care. It would be uncomfortable for anyone who saw it!
Several people lowered their heads to eat with different expressions. Only Zhou Ziqian looked at her from time to time, hesitant to speak, "Xiao Jin, you will feel uncomfortable if you eat too fast. Drink some soup!"
"Hmm!" Nangong Jin just replied heavily and lowered his head to drink the soup!
During this time, the screen of Zhou Xingyang's mobile phone, which was placed on the table, was always on. Even if the silent mode was turned on, the vibration could still be noticed by others!
"Third brother, are you busy?"
Nangong Jin asked suddenly, Zhou Xingyang tried to put away his phone and fool him, but Nangong Jin grabbed his hand!
"Third brother, I'm very happy today. Thank you for your gift! Go back to work as soon as possible!"
Her stiff smile was really ugly. Zhou Xingyang touched her head and said, "Since Xiaojin has spoken, then Third Brother will get busy first. We need to prepare for the concert recently, so..."
He leaned over and hugged her gently, singing in her ear: "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."
His voice was soft and melodious, and he sang it six times in a row, "Third brother gives you all the birthday wishes for the past six years. My little Jin should be very happy! Third brother will accompany you next time after he is done with his work!"
Nangong Jin buried his head in his chest, rubbed it, and hummed in a heavy nasal voice!
As Zhou Xingyang left, Nangong Jin seemed even more absent-minded. Zhou Ziqian could only smile and say, "It's getting late now. Xiaojin has to go to work tomorrow. Let's stop here today! Xiaojin, I'll take you out!"
Nangong Jin sat in his seat, staring at the cake: "Brother, can I take this cake away?"
"Of course, Aunt Wang, pack the cake and put it in Miss's car!"
The three grown men including Zhou Ziqian stood at the gate, looking at Nangong Jin with unclear expressions, especially Zhou Zichen!
Although Nangong Jin's mind was in a mess, he still asked with red eyes and a smile: "Fourth brother, do you... have something to say to me?"
Perhaps because his thoughts were seen through, Zhou Zichen scratched his head a little embarrassedly, hugged her gently, and whispered in her ear: "Xiao Jin, there is one thing I have always minded!"
"Huh? What's the matter?" Nangong Jin was a little curious after hearing it!
"Well, you celebrated birthdays for all of them, but forgot mine!"
His voice sounded a little aggrieved, like a child begging for candy. Nangong Jin chuckled rarely!
"Ah, so that's it. It's indeed my fault. When is Fourth Brother's birthday? I promise I won't forget it this time!"
Zhou Zichen muttered a little embarrassedly, but Nangong Jin didn't hear it clearly, "Fourth brother, I can't hear you, can you speak louder?"
"July 7th!"
July 7th? Why does it feel so familiar? Nangong Jin suddenly remembered that day was the Chinese Valentine's Day!
"Fourth brother, your birthday is very special. Xiaojin will remember it!"
"Happy birthday, Xiaojin! Although I can't sing well, I can say, Happy birthday, Xiaojin! Happy birthday, Xiaojin!..."
Listening to the other party's silly and naive words, Nangong Jin almost passed out. He felt both amused and touched, "Thank you, Fourth Brother!"
"Have you hugged me enough? Let go!" Zhou Ziming urged unhappily!
“Xiao Jin, let your second brother hug you!” Zhou Ziming is a model, with a height of 190cm, so he can only bend lower to hug Nangong Jin!
"I wanted to take you to our company to see the handsome guys and beautiful girls, but let's do it next time. I also wish you a happy birthday!"
Zhou Ziming is as aloof as ever, so there isn't too much sentimentality!
"Thank you, second brother!"
Zhou Ziming was much smarter than Zhou Zichen. As soon as he let go, he directly pulled Zhou Zichen away, "Let's go, take me back to the company!"
Only Zhou Zichen didn't understand the situation and kept yelling. It was not until he was punched several times by the other party that he quieted down and followed him away obediently!
Under the warm yellow street lights, Zhou Ziqian in a white shirt looked particularly gentle, and Nangong Jin in a professional suit looked particularly petite, "I'll walk with you!"
Nangong Jin nodded. It was already midsummer, and the breeze blew away the daytime heat. "Come back more often when you have time... to see the housekeeper and the others. They miss you so much!"
"Ok!"
The two walked side by side for a while. There was no communication between them. They could only hear each other's footsteps, but Nangong Jin could clearly feel that Zhou Ziqian's eyes kept falling on her from time to time!
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go back! Big brother, can I give you a hug?"
Zhou Ziqian was still the same, gentle and touching, "Of course, big brother!"
"Big brother also wishes you a happy birthday, and I hope you and Old Five will finally be together!"
Nangong Jin clearly felt his body tense up, and at this moment, he seemed to hear the sound of a heartbreaking heart!
"Thank you!"
Zhou Ziqian stood quietly in the darkness, watching Nangong Jin's car slowly drive away from his sight. If you look closely, you can vaguely see tears flashing in the corners of his eyes!
Nangong Jin, who was sitting in the car, couldn't wait to take the gift in his hands and stroked it carefully!
