If the cake is really for himself, and Yun Zhoujie doesn’t even know if he agrees or not, he just made some preparations in advance, isn’t he afraid of falling short?

Chu Qianze found it funny, but he couldn’t smile.

Knocking on your neighbor’s door in the middle of the night, wanting to make a cake yourself just to celebrate the birthday of someone you’ve only met once, and don’t even know what he looks like? But Yun Zhoujie didn’t say anything, didn’t do anything, making everything seem so calm.

However, it might just be a coincidence. Maybe everything is just made up by his own brain.

Yun Zhoujie saw that the other party didn’t give a response and sent a message.

Jie: [If you don’t feel comfortable, then let’s make another appointment.]

Jie: [Smile.jpg]

Chu Qianze was silent for a moment. For some reason, he felt that behind that smiling emoji, the man was actually quite lost.

Absolutely.

Yangshengzhai: [I’m free, when will we meet?]

Jie: [How about Saturday afternoon? Just in time for dinner.]

Yangshengzhai: [Alright, where’s the location?]

 

Jie: [How about Century Hotel near Group A? If it’s not convenient, we can change to another place.]

Yangshengzhai: [We can meet there.]

Yangshengzhai: [(touches your head~)1]

Jie: [See you then.]

Yangshengzhai: [I hope you won’t be too shocked when we meet.]

Jie: [Shocked? Why?]

Yangshengzhai: [You’ll see.]

Jie: [Then, I’m going back to work.]

 

Yangshengzhai: [Well, work hard.]

Closing the chat page, Chu Qianze put his phone down, with his hands behind his head, his eyes fell on the void, not knowing what he was thinking.

 

On Friday night, Yun Zhoujie knocked on Chu Qianze’s door and told him a little about the situation.

“You’re saying that you need the cake tomorrow night?”

Yun Zhoujie nodded, and said, “Can we start making it now?”

“Since you need it tomorrow night, I recommend making it tomorrow morning or noon.” Chu Qianze gave his advice, then added, “In fact, you can make it now, but after all, the freshness will be affected after a night.”

Yun Zhoujie is available, but Chu Qianze…

“Are you free tomorrow?”

“Yes, I usually get up at nine in the morning, you can come to me at about ten.” Chu Qianze said.

 

“Then I’ll come to you tomorrow, thanks a lot.” Yun Zhoujie handed out what he was holding, and said, “Chocolate. I heard someone recommend it, it’s said to be very delicious, just in time for you to try it.” 

If he didn’t give anything after getting his help, he always felt a little strange.

Chu Qianze wasn’t polite. He took it and looked at the brand, and said, “This brand of chocolate, it tastes very good.”

“Then have some.”

It seems that he chose the right one. Ye Zhong’s recommendation was somewhat helpful.

“Do you know that giving this chocolate to someone has another meaning?” Chu Qianze’s tone had some flirtation.

When Yun Zhoujie saw him like this he vaguely felt that something was wrong.

“Meaning?”

“If you want to know, you can look it up yourself. I won’t say more.” Chu Qianze admired the man’s dumbfounded expression, then closed the door himself.

He returned to the living room and put the box of chocolates on the table.

The chocolate tasted really good, sweet with a slight astringency, and the two sensations blended together just right. The shape is exquisite and small, suitable as a gift. This is also a limited edition, which is worth a lot of money.

But when this chocolate was first launched, the ad was about a crush, so it had a meaning. “I will give you all my most precious and sweet love.”

Relying on this chocolate, they confided to their sweetheart about their silent and implicit love.

Chu Qianze didn’t know where the man got the chocolates. Looking at the way he reacted earlier, he probably didn’t know about those things yet.

Yun Zhoujie opened his computer and went to that brand’s official website. He found the type of chocolate he bought and read its design concept. 

His eyes widened.

After a few seconds, he took out his phone and dialed Ye Zhong’s number.

“Hey cousin, what’s up?”

“The chocolate you recommended, what is it about?” Yun Zhoujie asked.

“Oh that ah, you made a move already? Really fast, ah, as expected of my cousin. Hey, hey, how’s it going? Is it effective? Cousin, I’ll tell you, if it’s not convenient to confess, you find other ways to express it. As long as the other party understands your mind, they will definitely give you a chance!”

Ye Zhong praised his own wit in his heart. When he first heard Yun Zhoujie ask for a dessert recommendation, he had a guess in his heart, so he recommended that chocolate.

His workaholic cousin surely doesn’t know how to chase people and doesn’t care about all those romantic things. Ye Zhong thought that for the sake of his cousin’s future happiness, he should also make an effort.

“Who told you I’m going to confess?” Yun Zhoujie felt both angry and funny at the same time. What’s in this person’s head?

How did he even think of asking this person?

“Not a confession?” Ye Zhong blinked, then hesitated, “Then it’s fine, just pretend you know nothing.”

Yun Zhoujie hung up the phone, feeling his head ache.

He thought about the way Chu Qianze flirted.

“He probably didn’t take it to heart.” Yun Zhoujie murmured. If he overreacted, he would look embarrassed. It’s better to treat it with a normal heart.

Instead of dwelling on this, it’s better to seize the time and think about tomorrow night.

The sun came directly above, and the length of the shadow reached the shortest of the day.

Inside the kitchen, Chu Qianze leaned on the door, watching Yun Zhoujie move his hands in accordance with the standard steps in an orderly manner.

Preparing the cake pan, whipping the cream…

At first glance, it looks quite decent.

Yun Zhoujie’s actions can be said to be very smooth.

There’s nothing that needs to be reminded of. Chu Qianze ate some Cheerios and obediently acted as a background board.

The cake was formed little by little, and finally, it was plated successfully.

Yun Zhoujie exhaled after doing this, feeling more tired than doing a day’s paperwork, but fortunately, the result was much smoother than expected. He felt that this cake probably took out his peak performance.

After looking at the cake, he put a part of it that he purposely left in front of Chu Qianze, and then put his gaze on him, wanting to get some comments, “Taste it?”

Chu Qianze hesitated, picked up the spoon and tasted it. He tasted the cake, and fell into silence.

Seeing him unmoving, Yun Zhoujie’s original confident mood became a little uneasy.

“Well?”

Chu Qianze noticed his line of sight, raised his eyes, and hooked the corner of his mouth. “Very well done, the taste is very good, you should have confidence in yourself.”

“Is that so?” When Yun Zhoujie heard this and felt guaranteed, he couldn’t help but relax. “I also think it’s okay, it’s probably tastier than anything I’ve ever done before.”

“Is there a box for it?” Chu Qianze asked.

“I bought it on purpose today.” Yun Zhoujie said, found the box from the room and put the cake in. This should be fine.

“Well, then have fun. I’ll go first.”

There was nothing for him to do, so Chu Qianze stopped dawdling and left directly.

As he closed the door, Chu Qianze’s relaxed smile disappeared, and a few hints of complexity appeared in his eyes.

Eating desserts promotes the secretion of dopamine in the body, which makes people excited. In addition, it will also increase blood sugar and make people feel full of energy.

But when Chu Qianze tasted the cake, he surprisingly perceived something special.

Very sweet, but not the kind of sweetness from the cake itself, with the creator’s own emotions, firm and pure love.

Yun Zhoujie called Yangshengzhai to meet, it seemed that it wasn’t just a simple meal ah.

Chu Qianze scratched his hair, laid on the sofa, and skillfully grabbed a few pillows.

Chu Qianze didn’t want to think about it.

Chu Qianze lied down like a corpse.

Chu Qianze just waited for the night to think about it.

After a while, he raised his hand and poked the script. “Hey, what about the rest of the plot? Now that Zhong Mu has been thrown off the stage, what’s going to happen after that?”

The script didn’t move. Chu Qianze suddenly remembered that the system had left, and there had been no news, and he didn’t know where the system ran off to play. He coaxed the system away directly, but didn’t ask how to keep in touch.

Since it can’t be connected, then don’t blame him for anything.

Chu Qianze rolled over, picked up the remote next to him, turned on the TV, and casually found a movie to watch.

It was a romance movie, mainly about ‘I love you but you don’t love me, so you trampled my feelings. Then I don’t love you anymore, you realize your feelings, but everything can’t go back the way it was.’ It was a hundred minutes. A car accident, leukemia, heart disease, stand-in, white moonlight, and all the other classic plot points were in place. It’s a bit impressive.

Especially when the female lead kicked the scum, let the man beg without looking back, and finally lived happily with the senior male god in high school.

When he saw the time, Chu Qianze got up from the sofa, pulled open the closet, and stared at the clothes inside.

He picked up two pieces at random, put them on himself, and looked in the mirror.

Too casual.

He changed to another, still not satisfied.

Why is it all casual clothes? Chu Qianze slandered himself in his heart.

At this time, the phone rang, he picked it up. It was a message from Yun Zhoujie.

Jie: [I booked the place already. I’ll give you the information later.]

Yangshengzhai: [Understand.jpg]

He put the phone down and finally chose the first set of clothes to wear. He put what he needed together in his pocket and put on his shoes, ready to go out.

The destination was the Century Hotel next door.

When he came to the appointed place, Chu Qianze walked to the front desk, gave the information about the appointment to someone, and then followed the waiter to the elevator.

“This is the place.”

The waiter reached out and pointed his palm in the direction of the door.

Chu Qianze said, “Thanks.”

“You’re welcome.” The waiter finished speaking and then left on his own.

Chu Qianze gripped the knob, opened the door, and saw Yun Zhoujie sitting inside.

He was perched in a chair and casting a sidelong gaze out the window. Tall, towering structures could be seen outside the enormous floor-to-ceiling windows, and the afterglow that fell on his body revealed a subtle silence and detachment.

Seemingly sensing the door open, Yun Zhoujie inclined his head to look at the door, just in time to collide with Chu Qianze’s line of sight.
