Chapter 182 The Fourth Birthday Wishes
Sleepless nights always make people feel like they are too long to wait for dawn...
Jian Mo was lying on the bed, and the books given to her by Gu Beichen were scattered on the quilt... They were obviously books that she had been looking forward to for a long time, but she couldn't read them at all at the moment.
"Alas..." Jian Mo sighed softly. If people fall in love, they will always be hurt.
The second hand was spinning around and around. Jian Mo took the phone and found that there were two missed calls and several text messages on it.
After coming back, the bag was thrown on the sofa, and then she and Gu Beichen couldn't wait for a moment to get into a heated battle...
In addition, I was sleeping in the lounge of Gu Beichen's office and turned off the mute. Later I forgot to adjust the sound, so I had no idea that anyone was calling or texting.
Jian Mo looked at the missed call and saw that it was from two people...one was Li Xiaoyue and the other was Chu Zixiao.
Jian Mo didn't answer the phone call first, but read the text message first, which was also sent by the two of them.
Chu Zixiao: For you, it is "Happy Birthday" that has been missing for two years, but for me...every year today, I say "Happy Birthday" to my Momo! It's just that Mo'er, who once received my first birthday gift, has lost her way...can she still find her way back?
Jian Mo looked at Chu Zixiao's text message and said in her heart that she didn't feel anything at all, it was all a lie... However, love is like this, love is love, not love is not love, there is no room for falsehood.
Jian Mo did not reply to Chu Zixiao. The current indifference to him was... the best for him.
Open Li Xiaoyue's text message: Happy birthday, girl! I guess you have forgotten about it because of the design, and I wanted to celebrate with you tonight... No one answered my call when I called you. It looked like I had forgotten my friend!
Jian Mo originally wanted to reply to Li Xiaoyue's call, but thinking about her mood at the moment, she didn't want to make her best friend sad too by feeling sad in the middle of the night.
In the end, Jian Mo just replied to the text message: I hope you will be there every year on your birthday, and you will be there every year on my birthday!
Li Xiaoyue did not reply immediately, but after a while, she finally replied: Niuer, you and I are for a lifetime...even if this life is long or short.
Jian Mo smiled when she read the text message, and finally took a deep breath...
Maybe, all this greed should come to an end. Just because if she keeps going strong, she is who she is... The lost her is no longer her.
Jian Mo got out of bed and went to pour herself a glass of water. When she came back, her phone screen flashed...
Because I forgot to turn on the ringtone just now, my phone just flashed the screen silently in protest.
Jian Mo put down the water glass, took her cell phone and opened the text message. It was not from Li Xiaoyue, but from Su Junli!
Su Junli: Is it convenient?
Jian Mo frowned slightly, then turned back: It's convenient...are you back already?
Su Junli: Well, I just got off the plane and went to the city... If it's convenient, come down!
Jian Mo frowned, come down?
Su Junli probably also knew that she was confused, so he sent another text message: I'm across the road from Runzeyuan. If it's convenient, just come down. If it's not convenient, forget it.
Jian Mo looked at the text message and didn't think much about it. She just replied "ten minutes" and went to change clothes.
The night in Luocheng was about to enter winter and it was already very cold. Jian Mo wrapped herself in a down vest, crooked her neck and looked across the road... She did not see Su Junli or his car.
"Didi, didi!"
At the right time, the sound of a horn came. Jian Mo followed the sound and saw a black Ferrari parked there.
Jian Mo ran over, pulled away from the co-pilot and asked, "Why..."
Before he could finish his words, as he sat down, a delicate clavicle chain hung in front of his eyes.
Jian Mo looked at the clavicle chain blankly, opened her eyes mechanically, and then turned her head to look at Su Junli, a little confused.
Su Junli smiled warmly, and his handsome face was as gentle as a warm breeze, dispelling all the cold air outside, "Happy birthday..."
"How...how did you know?" Jian Mo didn't expect that she would receive a fourth birthday blessing today.
Su Junli smiled and didn't say why he knew it. He just raised his eyebrows and said, "Although giving jewelry is a bit tacky, when I saw this necklace, I thought it suited you very well at first sight."
Jian Mo opened her eyes and looked at the pendant under the clavicle chain...
I didn't notice it at first glance, but now I realized that the pendant was actually made of double M's strung together.
"Thank you..." Jian Mo said sincerely.
Su Junli smiled, and seeing the affection gradually filling Jian Mo's eyes, he felt slightly relieved, "Can I put it on for you?"
Jian Mo nodded with a smile, turned her body slightly and lifted her hair so that Su Junli could put it on her easily.
Su Junli put the necklace on Jian Mo like a gentleman. He was afraid of causing her embarrassment. During the whole process, his hands did not touch the skin of her neck at all...
The light from the street lamp refracted through the windshield and fell on the clavicle chain, shining brightly.
Su Junli raised his eyebrows slightly, "It's really suitable for you..."
Jian Mo also likes it very much, not only because the clavicle chain is exquisite, but also because the pendant is in the shape of double M.
Su Junli glanced deeply at Double M. This was a birthday gift that he had prepared a long time ago. He thought he would not be able to come back in time to give it to her today...
Time passes midnight, and a new day becomes a new starting point at this time.
"It's late, let's go back?" Su Junli said softly, "I'm glad to have the opportunity to spend the last half hour of your birthday with you."
It would be a lie for Jian Mo to say that she was not grateful in her heart, but that kind of gratitude had nothing to do with love, but only with the loneliness under the anxiety of gain and loss.
The next day, the weather in Los Angeles was still very good, and the sun was unwilling to be lonely from the east.
The final design of the Emperor Club, the advertising renderings from the first floor to the eighteenth floor, exploded the entire Los Angeles media circle at the moment the sun rose... It was destined to lead all the topics today.
Naturally, the most concerned thing here is the design drawing of the eighteenth floor of the Emperor Club.
From Xiangyu's ability to participate in the competition, to defeating the two most famous companies in the architectural design circle, Harchitects and CCD, to the designer Jian Mo's rise to the top by relying on unspoken rules... Undoubtedly, today is the last moment of true confirmation.
Shen Chu saw that the design of the tenth floor had been released on the rolling news. Before noon, the design of the eighteenth floor would definitely be released...
With a cold sneer on his lips, Shen Chu called Gu Beichen: "Are you free at noon?"
"Why?" Gu Beichen's voice was so calm that no emotion could be heard.
Shen Chu smiled, "I'll find you for lunch if I have nothing to do..."
Gu Beichen stood in front of the French window, and the display screen behind him played a carousel advertisement of the Emperor Club's design renderings, "I'm afraid it won't be possible at noon..."
Shen Chu was a little disappointed when he heard it, "Then... forget it."
Gu Beichen listened to Shen Chu's disappointment, narrowed his eagle eyes slightly, and asked slowly: "Xiao Chu'er, do you have anything to say to me today?"
When he asked this question, the carousel advertisement of the club had already been put on the twelfth floor...
Next, there are two more time slots, playing the next six floors respectively... and the final design renderings of the eighteenth floor will be played when people are about to have lunch!
