The Wind Blows Fallen Leaves Chapter 52

birthday

After leaving the car, Shen Luo did not enter the house immediately. The slap marks on his face were still hanging on his face. He would definitely be asked endless questions after entering.

He went to Liang Qian’s secret base, which was covered with snow. There was only one stone standing tall, like a rabbit lying in the white snow.

There was a wind outlet there, and the wind always picked up no matter what time it was. The hammock on the two dead trees had been stretched to the point where it stretched its belly. Shen Luo had no tools and could only slowly brush away the snow with his fingers. He put his hands on his cheeks that were so cold that he couldn’t feel anything. He took a breath of air because of the ice.

Shen Luo didn’t go down the hillside until the evening, when the sun was setting in the west. It was easy to go up the mountain but difficult to go down. He accidentally fell down and squatted on his butt, but there was no one around to help him up.

You Min sat at the gate and looked out from time to time. When he saw Shen Luo, he immediately dropped the food in his hand.

“Why did you come back? Is it cold or not?”

The aroma of dumplings in the room wafted into his nose. Shen Yixiang came out of the kitchen with the hot dumplings. Shen Luo lowered his head and took a bite of a dumpling, saying in a deep voice: “Today’s dumplings are too salty.”

You Min didn’t know why, so he took the remaining dumpling fillings on the table, smelled them closely, and said, “They are all the same as usual. Did I forget to add salt?”

Shen Luo continued to eat, and he quickly finished the bowl of dumplings. “I was wrong. These dumplings are as delicious as ever.”

Shen Yixiang took out a cake. It didn’t look big, but it was enough to last him until he was eighteen years old.

In previous years, Liang Qian helped order birthday cakes.

And Shen Luo is a wanderer who likes this road. A flower can keep his footsteps, but not his heart. There will always be another flower that makes him stop again.

So what Liang Qian must do before his birthday is to carefully figure out what he likes most now, and then order a unique cake. But this year, Liang Qian is not here, so he must have forgotten.

Opening the box, there were two people painted inside, one of whom was holding a flower and putting it behind the other’s ear. Although the cake was not big, the painting on it alone was enough to take time and effort.

“Is it because you’re so unhappy that you don’t have me?”

The voice was dull but not scornful. It sounded from behind. Shen Luo turned around suddenly. Liang Qian came in despite the wind and snow. His scarf covered only his bright eyes. He threw the things into the corner and took out a lighter to light the candle for him.

“Why… why are you back?”

Liang Qian’s face was covered with candlelight, and the snow on his eyelashes gradually dissipated. At this moment, the pear dimple at the corner of his mouth smiled romantically, and said softly: “I light the candles for you every year. Why is this year an exception? Make a wish.”

Shen Luo looked a little moved when he saw him. He closed his eyes and made a wish for five seconds. Liang Qian thought he made the wish too quickly and insisted on making him make another wish. But Shen Luo said, “I don’t want much, this is enough.”

Only then did Liang Qian compromise. He carried a bag with only gifts for him in it.

When all this was about to end, Shen Luo received the news that An Yu was outside the door, and sneaked out while they were not paying attention. An Yu was leaning on the car door, and Shen Luo gave him his hand warmer.

“Why are you here?”

An Yu was afraid that he would be cold and wanted to get in the car. Shen Luo put his hands in his hands and said, “Let’s take a walk.”

The two were walking on the path in the village. There were many children circling around them. They seemed to like him very much. Shen Luo covered his mouth and snickered. It took a long time to help him drive away the children.

“They act like this when they meet someone they like. It seems like you are very attractive to them.”

An Yu looked at him directly and asked, “What about you?”

Shen Luo’s smile suddenly stiffened and he asked, “What do you mean?”

“Do I suit your taste?”

Shen Luo chose not to answer and walked forward without looking back. An Yu saw his shy expression of subconsciously escaping and immediately chased after him.

“Today is your birthday.”

“Well,” Shen Luo snorted, not knowing what to say.

After walking a few steps, Shen Luo realized that no one was following him. When he turned around, An Yu had something in his hand, glowing silver under the red lantern. Shen Luo subconsciously took a step back. After seeing what it was, she looked at him. An Yu put the thing in front of him and said, “This is my birthday gift to you.”

There is a ring on it. From a distance, it looks like a plain ring, but when you put it in front of your eyes, you can see clearly that the pattern on it is exactly the same as the pattern on the bracelet on his wrist.

“So beautiful.”

An Yu put it in his hand, but the expected coldness did not come, and only his residual warmth continued to radiate from the palm.
