I'm afraid I'm not interested in love

Chapter 564 "Look back."

After a strong counterattack by a straight man, Su Chengyi successfully completed the most difficult task in history - persuading Miss Chu who was ready to fight the whole world on her own.

All kidding aside, Su Chengyi felt that Uncle Gao was so grateful that he almost kowtowed to him on the spot.

After saying goodbye to the young lady who was clinging to the car window, the remaining few people stood under the street light and started a new round of staring at each other.

Finally, it was the birthday boy who spoke first, and he said slowly:

"What are you standing here for? Go back to your own homes and your own mothers."

As soon as he finished speaking, the other three looked at each other and felt that things couldn't be like this.

"Boss Yi, don't worry. Sister Mian is busy with her career, so we can hang out with you! Shall we go sing karaoke? Or do you want to go to a bar? We can arrange everything for you!"

Xu Yang put his arm around his shoulders and spoke passionately.

"Come on you."

Su Chengyi dropped his arm from his shoulder expressionlessly.

"You'd better take care of your fragile kidneys. Once the wound heals, you'll forget the pain."

"You must be joking! I can't forget that at all."

Thinking of the thrilling experience of having a kidney stone attack, Xu Yang covered his kidneys with lingering fear.

"If we don't go to karaoke, we can do something else, right? Is it possible that such a big city like Beijing can't accommodate a few of us?"

Han Bing began to search for guide posts such as "good places to celebrate birthdays" on the software. With her keen eyes, she could easily distinguish which ones were advertisements that made money and which ones were really good places.

"If we have nowhere to go, we can just take a walk. On the way here, I saw a People's Square over there."

Lin Tong made his suggestion cautiously.

"Are you going to square dance so late at night? You really want to do it, Mu Tou. I politely decline!"

Xu Yang shook his head like a rattle, which was not in line with his status as a young master.

"If you ask me, we should still find a place to sit for a while. At worst, we can just not drink and chat and listen to music or something."

"That makes sense. We can order a song or something. I went to a bar last time and it had a great atmosphere."

Han Bing has found the location on the map and is ready to call a taxi.

Su Chengyi looked at the three people discussing something and felt like laughing, but he still spoke up to interrupt this happy scene.

"Okay, let's disperse first."

Without waiting for any objections, he continued:

"I have received all the kindness you have shown me today, there is no need to pursue this sense of ceremony. Thank you, I had a very happy birthday.

Besides, everyone has their own things to do tomorrow, right? "

The first sentimental remark left the three of them unmoved, but the second reasonable remark made them feel a little guilty.

Su Chengyi did not choose to expose them all at once, but named them one by one:
"Mu Tou, you have to get up early tomorrow to work your part-time job, right? The commute takes more than an hour, so your alarm clock shouldn't be later than six."

"Sister Bing, have you edited the vlog you owed your fans? I see eight out of ten comments on your Weibo are urging you to do so."

"And you, Smart Guy, you're going to have a track and field test tomorrow morning. Are you going to be punished by running ten laps for being late?"

He said this so naturally that the three of them were speechless for a moment, but it was just because of surprise.

I didn't expect that this great god, who seemed to have little interest in everything and only cared about the survival of the universe, would be so concerned about his friends and even knew their recent movements clearly.

Realizing everyone's surprise, Su Chengyi finally reacted and cleared his throat awkwardly.

"I occasionally check your Moments."

"Then why don't you ever like it, Mr. Yi? I thought you didn't even read it!"

"Yes, Su Chengyi, I posted a circle of friends to collect likes before, and I was just one point short! Why didn't you click one when you saw it?? I was almost able to get that set of dishes! I will never forgive you, such a cold-hearted person!"

Xu Yang and Han Bing each spoke a sentence, accusing him of being a hateful lurker who had read and disliked the article.

Lin Tong doesn’t post on WeChat Moments himself, so he just laughed to himself.

"I'll praise you next time. Okay, can we disband now?"

Su Chengyi changed the subject in time and waved to the driver on the opposite side.

"When did you take the taxi?"

Xu Yang asked with a confused look on his face.

"Ten minutes ago, when you were planning where to go."

Su Chengyi said calmly:

"Get in the car. This is for you. It will take you all back to school according to the route."

"how about you?"

Han Bing asked with a frown.

"The second one. I have to go back to the studio tonight, so it's not on my way with you guys."

Su Chengyi said.

The driver flashed his headlights and rolled down the window to signal. Su Chengyi bent down in front of the car door and compared the last digit of his cell phone number with his.

The three of them got into the car, looking back every few steps and waving goodbye to him.

Su Chengyi stood where he was, watching the taillights of the vehicle disappear into the distance.

The next second, the phone in my pocket started buzzing.

Great Conscience: "Boss Yi!"

"Don't you like crowds and noise? Don't worry, I'll find an excuse to get off the bus and come back to accompany you right away."

"Don't be shy, brothers know it all!"

Su Chengyi: "."

"Get lost, if you dare to come back I will smash your kidney stones together with your kidneys."

After politely declining Dacongming's invitation for a two-person party, Su Chengyi walked slowly along the street lights alone.

There are not many people on this road, it is very suitable for walking alone to relax.

The countdown to midnight has begun. Except for him, everyone else at the party tonight is obviously very concerned about this and is thinking about staying with him to celebrate the New Year.

However, Su Chengyi was not very interested in this. He did not have much sense of ceremony, and he had already had a good time tonight.

In his previous life, he had no idea what birthdays were. The only dates he paid attention to were the arrangements for weekends and holidays.

When Lin Tong was leaving just now, she reminded him hesitantly that if he had time, he could check out Lin Zhiwan's account, as she would add another update tonight.

When Su Cheng realized this, he took out his mobile phone and clicked on the homepage of the "Zero Bowl" account.

Like Han Bing, she now has the title of “millionaire blogger” and her popularity column is booming every day.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Su Chengyi clicked on it, the time in the notification bar of his mobile phone changed from "23:59" to "00:00".

In an instant, his phone froze. Before the video on the homepage had even finished loading, a flood of message notifications came pouring in.

Su Chengyi waited for the "ding ding dong dong" notification sound to stop for a while before he opened the WeChat interface with great difficulty.

Sure enough, everyone kept track of the time to wish him a happy birthday.

The first to be affected were the three guys who had just been sent to the car. Da Congming even wanted to be the first to send a birthday wish.

"Happy birthday, President Yi!!! Am I the first one!!!"

Su Chengyi checked the order of time and replied regretfully:

"you are not."

The winner of the first place was quite surprising; the message came from “The Dream of a 900 Millionaire Woman”.

"Happy birthday."

It's a very ordinary sentence, but the timing is very accurate.

Su Chengyi was a little amused and replied:
"Boss Zou, are you counting down with a stopwatch?"

As expected, the other party was so angry that he sent a series of question marks.

"??? Don't fart!"

"I just glanced at the time and it's exactly twelve o'clock. Don't be so narcissistic!" "I didn't really want to send you a birthday greeting. In fact, I didn't even remember your birthday. Haha, you are really pretending."

One basic attack made him use up all his ultimate and flash skills.

Su Chengyi held back his laughter and clicked on the next message.

It was from Liang Nina, a student who performed steadily. She had obviously edited it in advance and sent a message directly.

"Happy birthday, senior. Did you have a happy birthday this year?

In the new year, I hope you stay healthy. I have asked your roommate to bring the gift to your dormitory.

I still feel a little regretful that I couldn't spend my senior's birthday with him. But it doesn't matter. I believe that one day I will get this opportunity, right? Senior.

I've been very busy at school lately, and my classmates and teachers are very annoying, but I'm still very happy to think that you are here.

Happy birthday, senior. Here comes another year of liking you even more."

After reading this message, Su Chengyi felt complicated.

Anyway, compared to the greeting card she sent me last year, it has grown a bit.

——Although there is still no hope of change on some issues.

Su Chengyi thought so and replied with a "thank you".

It was also at this time that he suddenly realized a problem.

Where is Chen Jinzhi? !
She didn't even send a message, could it be that she forgot?

Su Chengyi frowned, feeling that this possibility seemed very small.

But if you think about it carefully, she has been running back and forth between the crew and business activities every day recently, and she probably only has the two or three hours of sleep on the plane every day.

It's understandable that you forget what day it is.

Su Chengyi quickly convinced himself.

If it happened to other couples, this problem might be very serious, involving something like "He must not love me anymore, otherwise why would he forget my birthday?"

However, it seemed that the period when Chen Jinzhi and he would have disagreements and conflicts over such matters had long passed.

So Su Chengyi opened this article without any hesitation.

Miss Chu might be in a meeting right now, so she can't send a message.

The next message was from Ye Ju. She found out his birthday from somewhere, and her screen was filled with more than thirty "Happy Birthday" emoticons. A pig was waving a glow stick, which looked ugly and somewhat funny.

Su Chengyi strongly suspected that his phone was stuck because of this guy's screen swiping.

Under the stacked emoticons was a voice message. Considering who the sender was, Su Chengyi prepared himself mentally before he dared to click on it.

"I wish you a long life and happiness, and congratulations on your birthday~"

As usual, Sister Orange's singing was out of tune. After singing just two sentences, she suddenly switched to another song.

"He said today is his birthday but no one wished him a happy birthday. Happy birthday~~~ Happy birthday to you~~~"

Good guy.
Although this song originally had a rather sad tune, it sounded even more desolate when Ye Ju sang it in such a trembling voice, and Su Chengyi successfully got goose bumps all over his body.

Even the originally quiet and peaceful night road suddenly became extremely miserable.

Su Chengyi turned off the playback button of the voice, and typed on the screen helplessly:

"Thank you, you sang very well. Please don't sing it next time."

Next came from Jian Xiao. Xu Yang told him that she had been very busy working overtime recently. The pressure of working in a red circle firm like Junhe was exaggerated. He didn't expect that she still had the time to send him birthday wishes.

"Happy birthday, little brother. Cherish your youthful years of 19~~Oh my, maybe you'll like older sister types when you're 20?"

"."

Su Chengyi silently deleted the two words "thank you" that he had already typed. It would be better not to reply to such an inappropriate message.

What was even more outrageous was Xiao Zheng, who didn't even choose to send his blessings in private messages, but directly tagged all members in the WeChat group of "Zhi Jin Chen Studio".

"Today is the birthday of our talented producer Zhi Jinchen Shaoye, wish him a happy birthday! In the new year, he will continue to be talented and dominate the music scene! @All members"

It was the boss’ birthday, so the employees naturally couldn’t remain silent, and the message soon filled the screen.

Su Chengyi sighed, clicked on Xiao Zheng's business card directly from the group chat, and sent a message:
"Thank you, I'll deduct your bonus this month as my birthday gift."

"Master, you can deduct as many months as you want. Your birthday is the most important."

Xiao Zheng quickly replied glibly.

Su Chengyi was too lazy to argue with him anymore and checked the list to see if there were any omissions.

In addition, there were small red envelopes that flooded the roommate group. Su Chengyi also sent a red envelope and edited it with a note saying "Thank you for everyone's blessings."

At this point, Su Zelang and Yang Liu should have been unable to hold on and went to sleep first, after all, they are old.

After finally dealing with all the news, Su Chengyi breathed a sigh of relief.

This is the most difficult thing to get used to after turning from social phobia to normal social interaction. It is necessary to maintain such basic interpersonal relationships. Although I felt a little lonely before, it was also very peaceful.

After such a busy operation, Su Chengyi kept walking with his head down. When he looked up, he found that he had arrived downstairs of the studio.

The huge "Disco Elysium" promotional sign glowed orange under the night lights. It was truly a top-notch art design. Su Chengyi couldn't help but stand still and admire it for a while.

The cell phone started vibrating again.

Su Chengyi felt that his social energy for the day had been almost exhausted, and he was a little reluctant to answer the call, but in the end he took out his phone from his pocket.

The caller ID shows Chen Jinzhi, a video call.

Su Chengyi was slightly stunned, thinking that she must have found out that today was his birthday after she finished work, and she might be a little upset that she didn't arrive at midnight, so she called him directly via video.

The call is connected.

The light on Chen Jinzhi's side was a little bad and the vision was dim, but her gaze came gently through the screen.

"Teacher Su."

"Well, are you done?"

Su Chengyi nodded and adjusted the angle of the camera.

"I guess so."

Chen Jinzhi curled the corners of his mouth.

"What is Teacher Su doing?"

"I'm on my way back to the studio."

Su Chengyi replied, flipping the camera to show Chen Jinzhi the iconic billboard.

"That's it."

The curve of Chen Jinzhi's mouth became deeper.

Su Chengyi stopped and pondered for a while before asking:
"Um, is there anything you want to tell me?"

Why do you seem to be chatting? Have you really forgotten?

That’s not reasonable. She is Chen Jinzhi.

She is the omnipotent Chen Jinzhi with a smart mind!
"Ah, yes."

Chen Jinzhi nodded seriously.

"Actually, there's no need to time it. I don't care. It's okay if you forget."

Su Chengyi was still explaining to her when he saw the camera on Chen Jinzhi's side on the screen suddenly flip over.

Strangely, the floor tiles on her side seemed familiar.

Su Chengyi lowered his eyes and looked at his feet.

"Teacher Su, look back."

Then, Chen Jinzhi's smiling voice came from the receiver.

When Su Chengyi turned around, he saw Chen Jinzhi standing next to a street lamp not far away. He was wearing a long windbreaker, with his hands behind his back, and smiled at him.

The evening breeze made the hem of her brown windbreaker rise and fall slightly, and the smile in her peach blossom eyes was gentle and dreamy.
