Chapter 1044 Where Is My Birthday Present?

She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she discovered that there was gentleness in the man's eyes, like a pool of spring water, which made her heart skip a beat.

As if aware of her gaze, Sheng Zhixun instantly looked away, covering up his embarrassment with a dry cough, and a shy blush unknowingly climbed onto his cheeks.

Inexplicably, the atmosphere in the car became subtle. Although the weather was very cold, both of them felt a sense of heat, especially the base of their ears extending to their cheeks, which were as hot as being burned by fire.

It took a long time before Sheng Zhixun opened his mouth to break the awkwardness.

"Where's the cake?"

"How dare you say that!" When the cake was mentioned, Gu Nanpei got angry. "When you knocked Mr. Wang unconscious with a wrench, I rushed to help others and accidentally threw the cake on the ground, smashing it all."

"Then what?" Sheng Zhixun frowned, looking a little nervous.

"Then? It was all smashed. Of course I threw the cake into the trash can. It couldn't be eaten anyway..." Gu Nanpei's mood became a little depressed. "The cakes in that cake shop are hard to buy. I bought them a month ago." I started queuing up to make a reservation, but ended up putting it in the trash can before I even had a chance to open it. What a pity..."

Seeing her sad look, Sheng Zhixun couldn't bear it. He wanted to comfort her, but didn't know what to say, so he pretended not to care and said, "It's just a cake. If you want to eat it, I'll eat it next time." Just buy it again.”

Isn't it just a cake? !

Upon hearing this, Gu Nanpei's anger surged.

This cake was specially prepared for his birthday by her with full expectation. It was not just a cake, but also all her heart.

How could he say it so easily? !

He is indeed a man who doesn’t understand amorous feelings!

The more Gu Nanpei thought about it, the angrier he became. His face turned livid with anger. He simply pursed his pink lips tightly and said nothing. He did not intend to pay any attention to Sheng Zhixun!

Sheng Zhixun was confused. Why...how could he be so angry again? !

A woman's mind is like a needle in the sea, a needle in the sea...

When driving back, I passed by the square and saw a colorful countdown screen on the large LED screen embedded in the building.

Gu Nanpei was lying on the car window looking at it, carefully chanting "5, 4, 3, 2, 1——" from the corner of his mouth.

After reading the number 1, she suddenly cheered, "It's twelve o'clock! It's twelve o'clock in the morning!"

Sheng Zhixun was startled. He looked sideways at the inexplicably excited Gu Nanpei beside him and said, "You also know that I stayed with you until twelve o'clock in the morning! What are you doing? Why are you so happy?"

"It's twelve o'clock!" Gu Nanpei grabbed Sheng Zhixun's sleeve excitedly, "It's past twelve o'clock, which means it is already the next day, and it is your birthday!"

Sheng Zhixun was rocked back and forth by Gu Nanpei and had to stop the car. "Is it because of this that you are so happy?"

As soon as these words came out, Gu Nanpei realized that she seemed to be too excited, and even the person involved was calmer than her.

She immediately loosened Sheng Zhixun's sleeves, sat up straight again, and returned to her normal appearance. She said awkwardly, "Sorry..."

So embarrassing...so embarrassing...

Gu Nanpei looked as if nothing had happened, looking straight ahead indifferently. In fact, he did not dare to glance at Sheng Zhixun next to him. He just wanted to find a hole in the ground and burrow down quickly!

At this moment, Sheng Zhixun suddenly came closer, almost lying in her ear and asked, "Since it is my birthday, where is my birthday gift?"
