He Zhaoyu was stunned as he held his mobile phone. He had just promised to spend his birthday with Chi Yuan.
How much Chi Yuan was looking forward to it at that time, how upset he is now.
Seeing his complicated face, the assistant on the side thought something had happened and asked cautiously, "What's wrong, Mr. He?"
He Zhaoyu frowned and couldn't think of a good remedy. "Do you have any suggestions for a birthday present?"
"When is your birthday? I know a good store that you can customize..."
"yesterday."
"..." The assistant looked helpless.
He Zhaoyu decided to go home first to see Chi Yuan's reaction.
Will he make a fuss to relieve his anger, or will he feel depressed and endure it without saying anything?
He prefers the former because he has no idea how to please someone. It is much easier to be scolded than to be coaxed.
I didn't see Chi Yuan when I got home. He must have run away from home. He Zhaoyu thought in panic that with his current arrogant temper, it was not impossible.
He quickly opened the closet and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Chi Yuan's clothes neatly packed inside.
"Hey, you're back." Chi Yuan came in with two bags of food, and greeted casually, "I was still thinking about making something casually when you're not here, what do you want to eat?"
This is about pretending that nothing happened. He Zhaoyu had the courage to mention it first, "Yesterday..."
"Did everything go well yesterday? Did anything interesting happen?"
He Zhaoyu pursed his lips, not wanting to change the subject, "Sorry, I missed your birthday."
Chi Yuan suddenly realized, "Oh~ you said yesterday was an insignificant day that no one would remember."
He Zhaoyu thought that there would be a series of cannonball-like accusations, but Chi Yuan was very calm, "It's okay, aren't you busy? When you said you were on a business trip the day before yesterday, I knew you wouldn't be with me on my birthday, as expected It's just a matter."
Every sentence said he didn't care, and every sentence was full of sourness.
He Zhaoyu asked a very silly question, "Aren't you...won't you be disappointed?"
Chi Yuan was once the family's little baby, and she would definitely receive a lot of blessings on her birthday every year. Now there was only a formulaic text message from the dessert training class, which was sent to his mobile phone.
Chi Yuan asked, "Did you spend my birthday with me last year?"
There is no need to answer, Chi Yuan has already read the answer in his expression, "Maybe I was disappointed last year, so I don't really feel anything special now."
"You're the one who doesn't remember."
He Zhaoyu could not refute.
A person like him, who doesn't even celebrate his own birthday, would not deliberately remember other people's birth dates. So it's not that he forgot, he simply didn't know what date it was.
Otherwise, there is only one day left, and even if you don't care about it, you won't forget it. Chi Yuan couldn't have thought of this.
If it was just a canary, it would be normal for He Zhaoyu not to remember it. But with Chi Yuan's current position, his boyfriend has ignored him like this for two consecutive years, and he is completely disappointed.
After he lost his memory, he rediscovered He Zhaoyu's taste and habits. He also forgot He Zhaoyu's birthday, but he went out of his way to see it.
He Zhaoyu has a complete memory, but can't accommodate a date.
Chi Yuan lowered his eyes and was busy with his own affairs, while He Zhaoyu stood there at a loss, hugged him from behind after a long time, and said hoarsely, "I'm sorry... I will remember next year."
He Zhaoyu was annoyed that he didn't have the talent to make people happy, so his apologies were always so wrinkled.
Chi Yuan immediately replied, "Okay, then I'll wait."
"He Zhaoyu, actually I owe you... I must owe you, otherwise I wouldn't be able to be angry with you."
He Zhaoyu somehow remembered the way he was surrounded by debt collectors in the alley. It was his father's debt. What did Chi Yuan, a student, owe those people?
When He Zhaoyu helped him pay it back, he didn't ask for any written evidence. Chi Yuan insisted on signing the contract, which was equivalent to selling herself to him.
He Zhaoyu lied to him, "No. You don't owe anyone, least of all me."
Chi Yuan was much easier to coax than he thought, and he immediately turned around with dignity and said, "Then you owe me a sum now."
"Okay, I owe you."
Chi Yuan was used to taking a nap after dinner and took He Zhaoyu with him.
He Zhaoyu couldn't sleep, so she stared at his sleeping face in trance, and kissed him gently on the forehead.
Chi Yuan suddenly hugged his neck. He Zhaoyu was stunned and immediately hugged him back, "Aren't you asleep yet?"
"Can I make a wish?"
"Um?"
"Birthday wish." Chi Yuan pinched his earlobe and played with it, "Promising to you should be more effective than making a candle."
He Zhaoyu nodded, "What do you want?"
"Not when you feel sorry, not when you do it, just kiss me more often."
Chi Yuan said with a smile, but He Zhaoyu's heart was in a mess.
All along, he felt more pity for Chi Yuan.
And Chi Yuan was so obedient that he could ignore his thoughts. He never felt that Chi Yuan needed him so plainly.
"He Zhaoyu." Chi Yuan saw him stunned and felt a little uneasy for some reason, "Do you like me? On a ten-point scale, how much do you like me?"
