Falling Heart

Chapter 40

Chen Ziwan cautiously opened the door, and the living room was pitch black, she asked tentatively: "Chao Chao, are you there?"

The surroundings suddenly brightened in the next second, and Xie Mingchao approached step by step holding the cake.

"Mom, happy birthday."

"Thank you, my precious son!" Chen Ziwan was elated, and blew hard on the candle, kissed him on the cheek on tiptoe, picked up a fork and forked a strawberry, "It's still my favorite strawberry cake!"

Xie Mingchao wiped his face in disgust, "I'm not a child anymore, don't kiss me like this."

"In my mother's eyes, you will never grow up." She ate several in a row with satisfaction, and then realized that she stopped chewing, "This is milk strawberry, it should be very expensive, and it fills the whole cake , are you secretly eating less to save money?"

"It's the scholarship saved up." He put the cake on the coffee table and took away the number 39 on the cake. "I said to hand it over to you, but you didn't want it. Let me keep it for myself."

"Chaochao, mom can eat poorly, but you must not wrong yourself," Chen Ziwan looked at his face distressedly, "You are still growing, and you have lost weight. What if you have stunted growth? , no girl wants it."

Xie Mingchao cut a small piece of cake, "The last physical examination was 183, which is already high enough. I don't want to be a ceiling, so I don't need to grow to two meters."

She laughed out loud, and there were already fine lines at the corners of her eyes, "You are so interesting to talk, why don't you try to talk more? You used to clearly..."

Speaking of what she thought of, she glanced at his expression, the latter's expression was calm, as if she didn't make waves for her words.

That boy was his unspeakable pain.

Chen Ziwan coughed lightly and changed the subject, "Has Chao Chao prepared any gifts?"

Xie Mingchao raised his eyes and looked at her seriously, "Yes, I hope you will like it."

He picked up the painting covered with a black cloth beside the sofa, "Open it and see for yourself."

She rubbed her hands together and breathed into her palms, "Then I'm going to start."

Chen Ziwan lifted the black cloth little by little, and when she saw the whole picture clearly, her eyes lit up.

"It's so beautiful! Which artist did you ask for the draft? This style of painting is very high-end, so it should be very expensive?"

Xie Mingchao remembered the tired Shen Qing when he told him with great interest that he would definitely like it, and his tone calmed down.

"Well, it's a very good painter, but there is no charge."

"For free?" Chen Ziwan stared at him suspiciously, "You won't betray your lust, will you?"

Shen Qing's calm sentence "If I am the first flower picker, I will pick you, the flower of the high mountain", swayed in my ear, and Xie Mingchao paused.

"No, she's my...friend."

"Yeah, have you made friends with Zhao Chao?" Chen Ziwan smiled softly, "That's great, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out forever."

She picked up the picture frame, knelt on the sofa, and hung the picture on the wall.

"You have to hang on well, and you will feel better when you come back every day and see it."

It was exactly as Shen Qing said, it was framed and hung in the living room.

Chen Ziwan deliberately came back on an empty stomach, and after eating two yuan, she was full, and looked at the rest with regret, "You can't finish it after buying so much."

Xie Mingchao picked up the remaining half of the cake, "I'll share some with the neighbors."

She was very relieved, "Alright, let's improve the relationship between the neighbors."

Shen Qing was brushing her teeth when she heard the knock on the door, she spit out the foam in her mouth and trot over to open the door.

When she saw the cake for the first time, her mouth with a toothbrush in her mouth opened in surprise.

"For me?" Shen Qing didn't even bother to pick it up, keeping her eyes on the cake, "Is it your birthday?"

Xie Mingchao picked up her pink toothbrush, "My family is having a birthday."

"Is that the woman in the photo?" Shen Qing stepped aside, "Your sister?"

He didn't go in directly, and put the cake and toothbrush on the shoe cabinet in the entrance, "My mother."

"Huh?" She was stunned, inexplicably thinking of the young woman she met before, "Is it the one who always wears hats and sunglasses?"

Xie Mingchao looked at the foam she hadn't wiped off, touched his pocket, took out a piece of paper for her, and pointed to the corner of her mouth. "Have you seen her?"

"It's true," Shen Qing wiped it carelessly, "When I bumped into her before, she wrote down a string of numbers, and it was your WeChat. I thought it was a mistake."

She asked curiously: "Hey, are you really hiding from someone?"

"That's it."

"Don't worry, I will never mention it to anyone!" Shen Qing patted her chest and promised, "I have accepted your bribe, and I have to keep it secret for you!"

"I believe you," Xie Mingchao turned around with his hands in his hands, "don't eat after brushing your teeth, if you don't want to skip rope in vain."

She looked embarrassed, "I won't disturb you again."

Before he left, he added: "You are not fat."

Shen Qing pinched her belly, there really wasn't any flesh growing here, so where is the fat?
Although Xie Mingchao said that he is not fat, the girl's determination to win or lose will not be easily shattered.She made a one-month exercise plan and decided to practice the vest line.

After finishing Xie Mingchao's drawing, Shen Qing finally had time to focus on the comics produced by the three of them.

The readers on the APP have already been driven crazy, and it was Gong Xiaoxiao who asked Shen Qing to draw a picture of a character and post a post to calm the restless hearts of the readers.

"Eat and drink enough to do great things."

Shen Qing sat down at the table, looked at the barely finished line draft, and howled in despair.

She sighed while drawing, "I have endured everything I shouldn't have to bear at this age, and I have already felt the pain of being squeezed before I was out of society."

Shen Qing couldn't remember the last time she slept a full night. When she woke up the next day, she touched her heart.

"Ah, it's good that I haven't died suddenly."

She yawned and went to the classroom, and fell down as soon as she touched the table.

Xie Mingchao felt that he had seen this scene yesterday, and when he looked at her face, he saw a deeper bruise as expected.

Apparently she was staying up all night again.

When she woke up, it was already the end of the second period.

All the teachers in Class Nine knew that Shen Qing never attended the class.Before that, she would try to wake her up, but later she justly said that she didn't understand after hearing it. Anyway, the exam depends on it, so she simply left her alone.

She was woken up by the sports committee's usual howl.

Xie Mingchao closed the book and looked sideways at her, "Are you finally awake?"

Shen Qing rubbed her eyes and stood up, "Without the sound of the sports committee, I'm afraid I can sleep until noon after school."

"Always staying up late is prone to sudden death."

"I know, I'll be fine soon after I finish my work."

Chapter 2 really couldn't be delayed any longer, so she stayed up half the night last night.

He said inexplicably: "It seems that Shen Da painter is very popular."

Shen Qing followed suit: "You have a good eye, I think so too."

Xie Mingchao glanced at her, he was really narcissistic.
