Chapter 379 Birthday
The breeze blew away the dead leaves on the roadside, and the evening wind was sobbing. Li Zhuangsheng stood up and stretched himself, and lights were lit up in the school in the distance.

Hu Mengke sent him another text message, but he took a look and didn't reply. Hu Mengke would contact him on the weekends, texting him when he was in class and calling him on his half-day off.

He replied to the text messages, which were brief. When he answered the phone, he just told Hu Mengke to study hard.

Although Hu Mengke was young, she was about to enter junior high school. She was not much shorter than Hu Mengdie, so he should not treat her as a child. Especially when Hu Mengke kissed him on the cheek last time, he realized that he should keep his distance.

He didn't think Hu Mengke would love him in the future, but he had to nip the problem in the bud and try not to give her this opportunity.

From the little cousin, Li Zhuangsheng learned that Hu Mengke was doing well in school recently, and had gathered a few more people under her. The friendship between the two was also good, and the little cousin liked Hu Mengke's straightforwardness, so Li Zhuangsheng said that he would help her with her studies.

Life now seemed to be complete again. Apart from the occasional conflicts between Li Xiuyu and Zhu Zhixue, there were no other worries. Even if there were, they were just some whining without reason.

Li Zhuangsheng put his cell phone in his pocket, patted his butt and went to school.

……

It seemed like I was just distracted, and suddenly, more than a month had passed. The weather gradually became warmer, and it was the end of April in a blink of an eye.

"You've been absent-minded all day, what are you thinking about?"

Lin Yuehua stared at Li Zhuangsheng coldly. In front of Li Zhuangsheng was a math problem full of mistakes and omissions.

"Sorry..." Li Zhuangsheng yawned, with a hint of guilt in his tone.

"What happened to you these days? What have you been doing?" Lin Yuehua rarely let Li Zhuangsheng go this time. Although her voice was very low, her tone was extremely stern.

The other party has been in a particularly bad state recently. He dozed off in class, slept during breaks, and did his homework in a mess. And this state has lasted for a long time.

The midterm exam is in a few days, and given his current condition, his grades will definitely decline.

"I have some personal matters to attend to... I am really sorry, but everything will be back to normal in the next two days!" Li Zhuangsheng apologized again and bowed his head to make a promise.

"It's better this way. I don't know what you are thinking about!" Lin Yuehua pursed her lips and scolded with a stern face.

"Why were you scolded again today? Has she always been picking on you recently?"

During the break, Zhu Zhixue went to chat with Li Zhuangsheng and mentioned that Li Zhuangsheng was scolded by Lin Yuehua, and she was quite indignant.

"No, it's really my problem lately." Li Zhuangsheng yawned, looking sleepy.

"You seem so listless lately. Did you not sleep well at night? And you slept over there at noon."

"Yes, I am a little bit...I am staying up late to study."

Zhu Zhixue scolded her with some distress: "Don't study too late, you are only in the second year of high school. Besides, if you study so late at night, you will feel sleepy during the day, so you might as well go to bed early!"

Li Zhuangsheng smiled and nodded.

"Hey, you know tomorrow..." Zhu Zhixue hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but speak.

"What's the matter?" Li Zhuangsheng tilted his head, as if he didn't know what was going on.

"No, nothing..." Zhu Zhixue's face was slightly gloomy, biting her lips, wanting to say something, but not wanting to. "The wisteria flowers are so beautiful." Li Zhuangsheng stood at the window and looked down, his eyes full of joy.

This was the campus attraction he missed the most. The wisteria flowers wrapped around the corridor were in full bloom. The pure purple color hung down in strips like a purple waterfall. It was so beautiful that it seemed unreal, as if such lovely and moving beauty could only be found in a fairy tale world.

Such scenery can only last for three or four days each year, after which it loses its pure beauty. Li Zhuangsheng only saw it three times in his memory.

This is the fourth time.

"Hmm..." Zhu Zhixue still pouted, her mind was not on this at all.

It's okay. It's my birthday tomorrow. He will definitely remember it. How could he forget it? He will definitely remember it the next day. What birthday gift will he prepare for himself? Clothes, accessories... or something else? Anyway, no matter what it is, he will definitely remember it! She doesn't want any gift, as long as Li Zhuangsheng can remember her.

Zhu Zhixue thought about this until the next day, but Li Zhuangsheng still didn't show any reaction. He continued to chat with Zhu Zhixue as if nothing had happened.

Zhu Zhixue felt wronged. Did Li Zhuangsheng forget? She did not doubt Li Zhuangsheng's feelings. He might have really just forgotten. But...how could he forget?

Could it be that he actually remembered it, but deliberately didn't say it, wanting to give himself a surprise?
Zhu Zhixue was feeling upset and had no focus on studying the whole day. She was troubled and invited a few friends to lunch at noon. She told Li Zhuangsheng about this, but he didn't even ask her why.

"Why didn't Li Zhuangsheng come today?" Zeng Chen raised his eyebrows.

"Don't worry about him, men are not as important as good sisters!" Zhu Zhixue pursed her lips, her tone sullen.

"Listen, someone who always values ​​women over friends can actually say such words!" another girl teased.

"Today is your birthday. What good thing does Li Zhuangsheng want to give you?" Yao Xingyu asked.

"Yes, he's always so nice to you, buying you everything. Now it's your birthday, can't you prepare well?"

"I see. You didn't ask him to come out today because you didn't want him to be with us, so you're jealous!"

"Oh, you still have a beautiful girl hidden in your golden house, do you have other plans tonight?"

Everyone was talking at once, which made Zhu Zhixue, who was already in a low mood, even more depressed. Her eyes turned red and she was about to cry.

"Why aren't you talking?" Someone finally noticed that something was wrong with Zhu Zhixue.

"I feel..." Zhu Zhixue bit her lip, her nose becoming more and more sour, and said softly, "He may have forgotten."

"What? This Li Zhuangsheng is such a jerk, isn't he? He even forgot his girlfriend's birthday!" Zeng Chen was indignant. He slammed the table and took out his phone. "I happen to have his QQ number. I'll ask him what's going on!"

Zhu Zhixue was silent, she was holding back her anger and didn't want to tell Li Zhuangsheng. But today was her birthday, and she felt a little unwilling to miss it, so asking someone else to tell Li Zhuangsheng might be the best option.

"Say whatever you want, don't tell him. If he really wants to remember it, he'll remember it even if you don't tell him. If he doesn't really want to remember it, what's the point of telling him? It's not sincere at all!" Seeing this, Yao Xingyu snorted coldly to stop him.

Seeing this, the others also echoed Yao Xingyu's words. So Zeng Chen took his phone back.

Zhu Zhixue said weakly: "Or, you should just follow him..."

"Let's go sing in the afternoon. Today is a good half-day off!" Yao Xingyu patted Zhu Zhixue on the shoulder and said seriously, "You have so many sisters accompanying you, but you still can't beat a stinky man! Right!"
