Coming of age ceremony, birthday, these two words are definitely rare in Tianyi Five.
On this planet where life can be used as a bargaining chip, people's age has long lost any meaning.
But even in such a cruel world, Kafka can receive Bai Heng's birthday gifts every year, as well as the birthday party carefully prepared for her.
This year is no exception.
""Here, this year's birthday present~"
Susan placed a large box wrapped in purple ribbon in front of Kafka, smiled and patted her head, her tone light.
After a few years of getting along, the relationship between this beautiful female demon hunter and Kafka is no longer as stiff as the first time.
"What is this?"
Kafka opened the big box and was slightly surprised when she saw what was inside.
Inside was an oak-colored violin.
"This work was created by the master of music Pinocchio. In the past few years, you couldn't get it without 50,000 credit points.~"
"But it is said that the master has fallen on hard times in recent years, and had to sell off some of the good stuff hidden in his home at a low price, and then I took it down."
Susan explained cheerfully, and it seemed that Kafka's surprise made her very satisfied.
"By the way, where is Little Crow? Shouldn't he come with you?"Susan put her right hand above her eyebrows and looked around the hotel.
"Well...."Kafka gave a subtle smile,"We came here together, but before coming in he said he had something urgent to deal with."
"Urgent matter?" Susan frowned.
"He must have gone to change the gift temporarily." Kafka shook her head and smiled bitterly.
Before Bai Heng left, she saw the box in his hand. If nothing unexpected happened, the box contained the black coat she guessed, which was her coming-of-age gift.
In fact, Kafka didn't care what the gift was. It didn't matter if there was one or not. As long as Bai Heng could be with her on her birthday, she would be satisfied.
But in Bai Heng's eyes, it was different. Birthdays are memorable days. If you want a day to leave a deep impression in your mind, you must have an item with deep enough meaning.
The meaning of birthday gifts lies here.
"You and him haven't made any progress." Susan sat down and moved closer to Kafka, with an undisguised gossipy smile on her face.
Kafka moved aside, with a warning look in her eyes:"What is this? Spying on the enemy? And so openly?"
"Hey! We agreed before that we would have healthy competition. How can you say you are spying on the enemy? Besides, I gave you some advice before!"Susan was indignant and dissatisfied with Kafka's words.
Healthy competition refers to nothing else.
It refers to Bai Heng.
Yes! Both Susan, the S-level female demon hunter, and Kafka have that kind of feelings for Bai Heng. Needless to say, the former has been with him for several years. She would come to visit with food from time to time, and even find various reasons to take Kafka and Bai Heng out for dinner.
On the surface, she seemed to be targeting Kafka, but in fact, her target was Bai Heng from beginning to end. She just used Kafka to make a move to openly cultivate Kafka and secretly move Bai Heng.
As for Kafka, she didn't know when this change in feelings began.
From simple dependence at the beginning, to the subsequent desire to attract more attention from Bai Heng, to wanting his eyes to stay on her more, to wanting him to smile because of her.
At first, Kafka didn't know what this emotion was, until she saw the description of the word"like" in a book.
Then...She confirmed her thoughts.
Yes, she had developed feelings for the man who had raised her for seven years.
Because of this, the two women who had a decent relationship hit it off and signed a fair agreement for healthy competition.
"Does planning mean telling me that men like mature women? But even when I am like this in front of him, he is still calm like a monk in meditation....."
Pointing to her charming makeup and pulling off her purple stockings, Kafka complained in dissatisfaction.
"puff..."Covering her mouth, Susan was very satisfied with the result."Maybe he is not interested in you.~"
"If that's the case, then he must have no such thoughts about the woman who has been around him for more than ten years~" Kafka retorted mercilessly.
This is how most of the conversations between the two of them were when they were alone, almost all of them were carried out by mutual ridicule, and it has been like this for seven years.
Just when the battle between the two became more and more intense.
Bai Heng came back.
He was still holding the small box when he and Kafka left, and his breathing was a little difficult.
Obviously, during that period of time just now, he went to all the shops around to change the gift. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
But judging from this unchanged small box, he did not get the choice he wanted.
"Happy birthday."Pushing the small box in front of Kafka, Bai Heng looked a little helpless when he said this blessing.
He slowly opened the box, and after seeing the things inside, Kafka's purple eyes flashed with surprise.
As she guessed, there was indeed a piece of clothing in the box, but it was not an ordinary coat.
It was a black cape-style shawl coat with a soft texture. Both the layout and the pattern on the clothes were very much to Kafka's liking.
There is a saying that goes, when a man can buy a woman a favorite piece of clothing, he must have put a lot of thought into you.
Just like Bai Heng knew Kafka, Kafka also knew Bai Heng very well.
She knew that he was not a person who was particularly knowledgeable about clothes, and he was even more casual in terms of dressing.
��Such a person can pick out such a gift.....[]
It's not hard to see how much thought he put into it.
A little happiness was brewing in Kafka's chest. She looked up at Bai Heng with an unconcealed smile on her delicate face.
"Thank you..."
The birthday party went very well. After the party, Kafka and Bai Heng returned to their residence. It was still the same simple apartment. After seven years, the apartment had not changed much.
"You should take a shower first."Leaving behind these words, Bai Heng took out a cigarette from his arms and walked to the balcony.
Just as he was about to light it, he noticed Kafka following him from the corner of his eye.
""What's wrong?" Bai Heng asked, extinguishing the lighter.
Seeing his expression, Kafka smiled faintly. She took the lighter from Bai Heng's hand and lit it for him herself.
"As you said, I have passed the adulthood ceremony and am no longer the child who needs your protection. There is no need to hide from me when smoking cigarettes."
"Likewise, you and Susan are hiding things from me."
"It’s time to tell me."
