Immediately after returning home, it was already 7 p.m. when Yi Feng encountered the middle-aged man who delivered the computer to him downstairs.
"Uncle, thank you for your hard work," Yi Feng said with a smile as he settled the delivery fee on the spot.
"Hehe, thanks for your care. Need me to help you move it upstairs?" The middle-aged man, with a kind demeanor, offered his assistance, knowing that carrying two computers alone would be difficult.
Feeling some pain in his ankle, Yi Feng reluctantly said, "That would be great. Please take this 50 yuan as a token of appreciation for your help."
Yi Feng took out another 50 yuan from his wallet as a token for the man's assistance.
The middle-aged man was pleasantly surprised and repeatedly thanked him.
Together, they moved the computers upstairs.
Upon opening the door, Yi Feng found that his parents were not at home; apparently, they were across the hall celebrating Gu Muxi's birthday.
Both Gu Muxi and Yi Feng's birthdays were celebrated together, making the occasion more lively.
After taking a sip of water, Yi Feng headed towards the neighboring apartment and knocked on the door, which was answered by Gu Muxi.
"Yi Feng, you came back just in time. It's dinner time!" Gu Muxi smiled.
"My stomach is growling. I want to eat two bowls of rice tonight!" Yi Feng grinned.
Entering the house, Yi Feng found his mother, Meng Xiaoyun, and Li Wan in the kitchen cooking, while in the living room, Gu Xingzhong and Yi Jianbing were chatting happily about something.
"Son's back! Come, come, over here," Yi Jianbing waved him over.
"Dad, what's up?" Yi Feng approached, curious.
"Hearing from Xixi that your recent test scores were good? Ranked top ten in your class?" Yi Jianbing asked, surprised.
"Yeah, my performance was okay, but I still need to strengthen my studies in physics, chemistry, and Chinese," Yi Feng chuckled.
Yi Jianbing continued, "Are you confident about passing the university entrance exam and getting into a second-tier university?"
"Once I pass the second-tier exam, I can attend a slightly better school. Muxi has always had good grades. I think if you work a bit harder, you two can attend the same university and take care of each other," Yi Jianbing said.
"You've been in the same class from elementary to high school, and you can still go to the same university. We're relieved," Meng Xiaoyun added.
Yi Feng smirked; his dad lacked confidence in him, huh?
Second-tier?
What a joke!
But it's true, his grades used to be average.
But now, he's confident he'll score well beyond the threshold for a first-tier university!
"I'm confident about passing the second-tier. I've also told Gu Muxi that after the college entrance exam, we can choose the same university, preferably Guangxi University, which is closer to home," Yi Feng replied.
Yi Jianbing nodded in satisfaction. "That's the spirit! Keep it up!"
Gu Xingzhong chuckled, "Old Yi, I think little Feng is quite confident. You should believe in him. He'll definitely do well!"
"Ah, my brother Gu, little Feng has better grades this time, but he hasn't had such results before. We're still a bit worried," Yi Jianbing shook his head.
Gu Xingzhong looked at Yi Feng and smiled, "little Feng, then make sure to get good grades for your dad to see."
"Sure, Uncle Gu," Yi Feng nodded.
While chatting, Li Wan and Meng Xiaoyun brought out the last two dishes.
"Come, come, everyone sit down and eat," Li Wan invited.
There were six dishes and one soup on the table, very sumptuous, almost like a New Year's Eve dinner.
Gu Xingzhong specially opened a bottle of good wine to entertain Yi Jianbing. They were old drinking buddies, meeting up every now and then for a few drinks.
Gu Xingzhong had received quite a few good bottles of wine from others, and Yi Jianbing was enjoying a bit of good fortune.
The dinner was lively, with both families having known each other for over twenty years, more like relatives than mere friends.
After finishing the meal, Li Wan brought out the cake.
"Ding, ding, ding, it's time for cake!" Li Wan announced.
"Come on, daughter, light the candle yourself and make a wish," Li Wan smiled.
Gu Muxi happily nodded, inserting only one candle into the cake and then lighting it.
"Gu Muxi, what birthday wish do you want to make? This is your 18th birthday, a coming-of-age ceremony," Yi Feng asked curiously.
"None of your business. I won't tell you," Gu Muxi said haughtily, folding her hands together to make a wish.
Wish for parents' good health.
Wish… for Yi Feng to do well in the college entrance exam and progress in his career.
Humph, since Yi Feng gave me a computer for my birthday, I'll make a wish for him too.
Gu Muxi thought to herself.
"Gu Muxi, did you make a wish related to me?" Yi Feng suddenly leaned in, whispering with a smile.
Gu Muxi's cheeks reddened. "No, don't be presumptuous. Hmph."
After saying that, she blew out the candle.
"Hey hey hey, we haven't sung the birthday song yet!" Yi Feng was surprised.
"Yi Feng, with your tone-deaf voice, I've listened to it for over ten years. Let's skip it, shall we?" Gu Muxi rolled her eyes.
"I…," Yi Feng helplessly smiled. He didn't have a natural talent for singing before, but after attending university, he chose music as an elective. After graduating, he even enrolled in a training class. Now, he was definitely capable.
Well, it seems Gu Muxi won't have a chance to hear my melodious voice.
After cutting the cake, Gu Muxi served the elders first, then gave Yi Feng a large piece, keeping only a small portion for herself.
"Why are you eating so little?" Yi Feng asked curiously.
"The cake has too much cream. I'm afraid of getting fat. You eat more," Gu Muxi casually replied.
"With your figure so standard, do you need to lose weight?" Yi Feng shook his head and smiled.
Although Gu Muxi was half a head shorter than him, she was already 1.7 meters tall, considered tall among southern girls. Moreover, she was not only tall but also very proportionate, as the saying goes, "a little more plump, a little less thin," just perfect.
With such a figure, she made the girls at school envious.
"Humph, I like it this way. It's none of your business. Let's go, let's eat in the room," Gu Muxi said, noticing Gu Xingzhong and Yi Jianbing starting to smoke in the living room. Her sense of smell was sensitive, and she didn't want to smell the smoke.
The two of them went into the room and sat at the desk to eat the cake.
"Yi Feng, did you bring back our computers?" Gu Muxi had been thinking about her birthday gift.
"I brought them back. They're in my room. I'll help you install them after school tomorrow," Yi Feng replied.
"You don't know, I and the delivery uncle carried them back and forth twice. It was exhausting," Yi Feng shook his head and chuckled.
Gu Muxi felt a little moved and was about to speak.
Yi Feng smirked mischievously, "Hehe, kiss me as a reward?"
Gu Muxi's cheeks flushed, and she glared at him.
"Get out of here."
"Are you taking advantage of this to boast?"
"I'll treat you to breakfast tomorrow morning. Pig offal soup with pig offal!"
Yi Feng chuckled, suddenly shifted his foot, and felt a sharp pain, causing him to grit his teeth and suck in a breath of cold air.
Gu Muxi noticed his change in complexion and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with your foot?"
"It seems like I twisted it. Today, I kicked that guy and sprained myself," Yi Feng grimaced in pain, taking off his shoe and sock to inspect the injury.
Upon inspection, it was even more swollen, like a bun.
"My goodness, Yi Feng, your twist seems quite serious! Why didn't you tell me earlier?!" Gu Muxi, seeing the injury, furrowed her brows.
"It wasn't that painful at first, but it got worse later, especially after carrying the computer upstairs," Yi Feng explained helplessly.
Gu Muxi was taken aback.
She didn't expect him to help her carry the computer upstairs with a sprained foot, feeling a bit guilty in her heart.
What a fool!
"Sit here and wait for me. I'll go get some medicinal liquor for you. My dad's medicinal liquor works wonders," Gu Muxi's eyes flashed with a hint of tenderness, quickly getting up.
"That's fine. I really need to use the medicinal liquor," Yi Feng nodded.
Gu Muxi left and returned after a while with a small bottle of medicinal liquor. Upon opening it, a pungent smell filled the room.
"Give it to me. I'll apply it myself," Yi Feng reached out to take it.
"Can you apply it properly yourself? Let me help you. I'll ask my mom to cook an egg for you later. After applying the medicinal liquor, we can use the egg to compress it, and you'll recover quickly," Gu Muxi said.
"Put your foot on the chair and straighten it out."
Sitting beside Yi Feng, Gu Muxi poured some medicinal liquor onto her hand and carefully applied it to the swollen area of Yi Feng's ankle.
Yi Feng was taken aback. When he was injured or beaten before, Gu Muxi wouldn't help him apply the medicine. She always said that a man should take care of himself.
But today, she took the initiative.
Seeing Gu Muxi's serious expression as she applied the medicine, Yi Feng felt warm inside.
Suddenly, a sharp pain struck.
"Ah, it hurts!" Yi Feng cried out in pain.
"Gu Muxi, what are you doing?!"
Gu Muxi looked up, glaring at him, "I'm helping you apply the medicinal liquor properly. If you don't use enough force, how will the liquor penetrate?"
"If you want the pain to go away faster, endure it a bit for me."
"Big man, you can handle this little pain."
Yi Feng: "…"
"You're speaking so lightly. When I helped you apply medicine before, didn't you scream and howl?"
Gu Muxi raised her head and glared at him again, asking, "Did I? Did I scream before? You're slandering me!"
"Humph, of course you did. I still remember the time when you were in junior high, you fell down the stairs. Haha!" Yi Feng remembered the scene vividly, Gu Muxi rolling down the stairs, looking like a pitiful mess. It was so funny.
A memory to last a lifetime!
Gu Muxi's cheeks reddened, and there was a hint of embarrassment in her eyes as she snorted, continuing to exert force on Yi Feng's ankle.
Yi Feng's complexion changed drastically!
"Ah~!"
A miserable cry echoed through the building.
In the living room outside, Gu Xingzhong, Yi Jianbing, Li Wan, and Meng Xiaoyun all looked at the direction of the room in surprise.
Li Wan exclaimed, "What are these kids doing in the room?"
