MTL - Yan Yan-Chapter 28 Birthday

For the whole morning, Bai Xingfan did not reply to her messages, and Su Yan did not continue to send him messages.

After today's work was over, Su Yan called SF Express, packed all the gifts he gave her and sent them back to Dongfu - including the bunch of roses that made her heart swaying - the delivery address was Baixing. Fan's manor, the consignee fills in his name and phone number.

She does what she says, does not accept his gifts, and will return all the gifts to him - not only is she showing him her refusal attitude in this way, but also she is using actions to strengthen her determination, and she will be heartbroken. Slim completely stifled.

Facts have proved that this method works very well. Bai Xingfan never came to her again, or even sent her any messages, and completely disappeared from her world.

Su Yan was finally relieved, but she always had some grievances and regrets deep in her heart. Occasionally, in the dead of night, she could not stop thinking about it: Did he understand what he meant, so he chose to respect her decision instead of Stop bothering, or have you lost your patience with her?

If it is the former, she has nothing to say, because it is her own choice; but if it is the latter, she will probably be angry and feel that she is being treated as a temporary plaything by him.

Also, a man like him is born a high-ranking person, rich and noble, and he also has a good skin. Will there be a lack of suitors around him? Among those suitors, there are many women who are more beautiful than her, better than her, and more prominent than her family background. Why should he only have a soft spot for himself?

The answer is: not at all.

In the dead of night, it was difficult to calm down, and every time she got this answer, she stopped because this answer could instantly restore her calm.

The days passed, like turning over the pages of a notebook, the uneasy feeling left in her heart seemed to be a pen imprint engraved on the paper. The more pages were turned, the lighter the imprint. Turn back a few more, and the eighth achievement can disappear without a trace.

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of June, and on the 30th, it was Su Yan's twenty-fourth birthday.

For most people, birthdays are definitely a day to celebrate, not only because the day of birth has a special meaning in life, but also a habit left over for many years.

But to Su Yan, this day doesn't seem to be anything special, because she has never had the habit of celebrating birthdays since she was a child—she was not with her parents when she was a child, and has been living with her grandmother in her hometown in the countryside, but the old lady was very partial, and she only thought about it. Thinking of Su Zhan and Su Qian who are not around, there is no way to celebrate her birthday without her at all.

It can be said that before the age of thirteen, she did not have a birthday at all. At the age of thirteen, it was because her mother suddenly remembered that she was going to have a birthday, so she deliberately carried her brother back to her hometown and rushed to her home. Came back for her birthday, but it wasn't a happy birthday that year, because her mother and grandma had a big fight—

Mom came back late at night on the 30th - a few hours later and her birthday would be over.

It just so happened that the teacher left a lot of homework that day, and her Chinese texts had not been memorized yet, so she slept late and waited for her mother and brother who suddenly came home. In the middle of the night, when she suddenly heard a knock on the courtyard door, her first reaction was fear, but after hearing the voices of her mother and brother, her fear turned into excitement and excitement, and she threw down the language book in her hand, He jumped up on the wooden bed and ran to open the door for his mother.

As soon as the courtyard door opened, she threw herself into her mother's arms. Mom also hugged her for a long time, then looked at her cheeks carefully, and asked with a smile, "Yanyan has grown a year older, did you eat cake today?"

At that time, she shook her head very seriously: "No."

"Grandma might want to wait until the weekend to take you to the county seat." At that time, my mother excused her, but when they returned to the room where she lived, her mother suddenly noticed her schoolbag and frowned. "Yan Yan, why don't you carry the new schoolbag your mother bought for you?"

The thirteen-year-old looked blank: "What new schoolbag?"

Her mother was also surprised: "Just the pink one. I bought it for you at the beginning of this semester. It's a famous brand. It cost hundreds of dollars."

She shook her head again: "I don't know, I have been carrying this blue cloth schoolbag, and it was rotten last time. Grandma sewed it for me."

"How could you not know?" Her mother was a little anxious, "I really bought it for you!"

She reluctantly replied, "I really don't know. Besides, isn't it just a schoolbag, and what I lack is more than a schoolbag." There was a little bit of complaint in her tone.

Her mother was startled at first, as if she suddenly guessed something, then grabbed her arm and asked, "Where are your sneakers? It's the pair of Li Ning I bought for you last month, the same one as Qianqian. Pair of white sneakers."

She continued to shake her head: "I don't know, you have never bought me sneakers, and I don't know any Li Ning and Wang Ning. I always wear cloth shoes that my grandma sewed for me."

Her mother's eye circles instantly turned red: "Why didn't I buy you sneakers? Not only do I buy them for your birthday, but I buy them for you every year when the seasons change!" Her mother hated She gritted her teeth, "No wonder Su Qian bought so many things I bought for you, so I bought it!" After she finished speaking, she rushed out of the old brick building, full of anger He walked across the yard and knocked **** Grandma's door.

The old lady had already slept, and she didn't even notice that the eldest daughter-in-law came back with her precious grandson. After she opened the door with her clothes on, her eyes widened instantly, and the first sentence: "Who told you to come back? Who cooks for Jian An when you come back?" The second sentence: "Where's Xiao Zhan? Didn't you bring it back?"

Her mother didn't pay any attention to the old lady's cunning complaints, and asked straight to the point: "Mom, let me ask you, did you give her the things that Jianan and I sent back to Yanyan?"

The old lady's expression flashed panic, but her mouth was like a rainbow: "What do you mean?" In order to strengthen herself with these words, she shouted very loudly, blushing and thick neck, as if the voice was getting louder The more truthful she speaks.

"Don't you know what I mean?" Her mother was also angry, "I'll ask you again, Jian'an paid you living expenses a few days ago, and gave you an extra 2,000 yuan to buy Yanyan a birthday cake, The remaining one thousand is for her, did you buy it? Did you give it?"

Although the evidence is conclusive, the old lady still acted confidently: "I gave it!"

Her mother became more and more furious: "If you gave it, why wouldn't Yanyan know? No wonder I feel wrong every time you tell me about Yanyan's shoe size, how can a shoe size two years younger be right! The sneakers I co-authored were bought for Su Qian! My own daughter has suffered so much, I don't even know!" At the end, her voice was choked up.

The old lady refused to admit it, and then the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had a big fight, one was more aggressive than the other, waking up all the neighbors.

Later, her mother was really angry and led her and her brother back to Dongfu overnight. She wanted her father to be fair, but at that time her father's principle of doing things was that "the kindness of parenting is greater than the heaven", so he unconditionally forgave her. After seeing her grandma's behavior against her yang and yin, she also advised her mother not to care so much, after all, they were all a family.

So this matter was finally over, but Su Yan was still unable to let go. Not only could she not forgive her grandmother, but even her father could not forgive her, so that later he bought her a lot of pairs of sneakers, and she was angry and refused to wear them.

But in the second year, when she was fourteen years old, her parents took her to Dongsuke, and in order to compensate her, they did not hesitate to pay 200,000 yuan a year in tuition to let her go to a private aristocratic junior high school.

Thinking about it now, one of the things I regretted the most was that I got angry with my father on the day of school and didn't wear the sneakers he bought for her, but went to school in a pair of hand-stitched blue patterned shoes.

If she wore sneakers that day, she probably wouldn't look so dirty...

Later, she no longer got angry with her father, finally put on sneakers, and finally stopped being a left-behind child. She lived with her parents, but she couldn't have a birthday of her own, because she Su Qian's birthday is very close to Su Qian's birthday. Uncle and aunt always offer to spend it together when they are about to celebrate their birthday. Dad is embarrassed to refuse, and grandma is full of praise for this proposal because it can save money. , to save money for the younger son's family—

Every time she and Su Qian celebrated their birthdays, it was her father's Zhang Luo Hotel. Her father paid for the cake, and her father ordered the cake. Uncle and his family of three always came empty-handed, and then they scrambled to seize the throne and monopolized the feast. Celebrate a birthday for my daughter, and tout my daughter vigorously along the way, and don't say a word about her co-star, when the praise is enough, they will pack up the few plates of food, cakes and drinks that were barely touched. Family.

It can be said that before the age of fourteen, Su Yan basically did not have a birthday; after the age of fourteen, her birthday was to provide Su Qian with a wedding dress, so she did not have the habit of celebrating birthdays at all, and she didn't even like birthdays very much. , because her birthday was always implicated in some bad things at home, and it bored her just thinking about it.

When she was eighteen, she would never have a birthday anymore. Her mother asked her why she didn't want to celebrate her birthday anymore? Is it because of Su Qian? The answer is obvious: yes, because of her!

But she didn't want to tell the truth, otherwise it would make her mother feel uncomfortable, so the reason she gave was: I'm an adult at the age of eighteen, so what's the birthday? I don't want it if I have an old one, and the next birthday will be sixty!

Later, she really didn't have another birthday. Six years passed by in a flash. If it wasn't for that silly Baitian Su Zhan who sent her a birthday greeting in the early hours of this morning, she would have forgotten that today was her birthday. .

But even when she remembered it, she didn't plan to take her birthday seriously, and she didn't make any special arrangements.

However, the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. She didn't have any special arrangements, but the crew had—

According to the work plan, there will be a night show tonight, and it is estimated that she will not be able to get off work until the early morning of the next day. However, as soon as she arrived at the crew this morning, she received a notice from assistant Yang surnamed: The film and television city will be under martial law after seven o'clock tonight, and all the crew will be under martial law. No night scenes allowed.

Su Yan was extremely surprised: "When did you give the notice?"

"Last night," said assistant surnamed Yang, "Mr. Su, it won't delay you much if you don't shoot the night scene, right? It's not that you want to change the script."

There was a bit of yin and yang in his tone, and there was no more respect in the past.

In fact, not only him, but also the rest of the crew, their attitude towards her has changed little by little.

Su Yan knew that this change was because Bai Xingfan had not appeared for more than a month, so the deterrent force he brought was gradually disappearing.

In other words, in the eyes of outsiders, she is now a woman who has been neglected by Bai Xingfan, so she is insignificant and worthless.

But she didn't bother to bother with these people so much. Anyway, as long as she didn't change her script, she didn't care about anything else, and continued to ask: "If we can't shoot tonight, will the crew suffer a great loss? ?"

Assistant surnamed Yang: "Mr. Su, you don't need to worry about this. The crew can apply to the film and television city for lost wages." Although he was less respectful, he didn't dare to go too far, and he still answered any questions he had.

Su Yan: "Can all the crews in the film and television city apply for lost wages?"

Assistant surnamed Yang: "Of course."

Su Yan was slightly shocked: "How much is the expense?"

The assistant surnamed Yang sighed helplessly: "Mr. Su, you should ask the person in charge of the film and television city about this, I don't know." He said something in his words, "Or you can ask Mr. Bai. Alright, Mr. Bai will definitely tell you."

Su Yan pretended not to hear, and turned around and left.

The weather was good today, work started on time at nine o'clock, filming ended at six o'clock in the afternoon, and get off work was off at six thirty.

On the way back to the hotel from the studio, Su Yan met many people. In other words, the crowd she saw on her way off work today was the most she had ever encountered since she joined the group. In response to martial law, almost all the crews in the film and television city were in the same place. time off work.

Sometimes, the more people around you, the more lonely you are in your heart.

On the way off work, Su Yan felt a strong sense of loneliness in her heart for no reason. Thinking that today was her birthday, she suddenly became hypocritical. She felt like a little cabbage that no one loved and loved.

So, on a whim, she decided to buy herself a small cake—although birthdays are not important, life still needs a sense of ritual, so be nice to yourself!

There is a dessert shop near the hotel. She went there to choose a strawberry cake for herself. When queuing up to check out, her phone suddenly vibrated. She took it out of her bag and saw that it was an unfamiliar call, and the number was Dongfu.

She frowned slightly—

Could it be an advertisement for a decoration company? Her house is about to be handed over, and many decoration companies have called her recently.

But it may also be an acquaintance who has changed his mobile phone number, or a work-related matter?

After hesitating for a while, she still answered the phone and held the phone to her ear: "Hello, hello."

The other party didn't speak, only some faint, suppressed breathing came from the receiver.

Su Yan frowned again and said again: "Hello, how are you?"

After waiting for a few more seconds, the other party finally spoke, and the male's deep voice revealed a slight uneasiness: "Yan Yan, it's me..."

Su Yan froze all over, dumbfounded.

It's Xie Yu.

Xie Yu took a deep breath, and finally summoned up the courage to say the purpose of the call: "Happy birthday, I always remember."
