Chapter 42: Happy Birthday

  When the party started, everyone was a bit nervous. Cen Yanqiu was most afraid that something would go wrong. This was the first time their animation club had participated in a school event, and everyone took it very seriously.

  And today everyone is dressed up, Lei Yuchen made makeup for everyone, the technique is naturally not to be said, although the god is not like a two-dimensional character, but the shape is no less than that of a two-dimensional character.

  Just as everyone was nervously warming up backstage, Jin Mingmei walked over. This class teacher and animation club manager had not appeared until now, but surprisingly brought them energy at this time. Jin Mingmei smiled slightly, "Don't be nervous later, just like when you guys have fun normally, this evening party is originally for entertainment, mainly to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival happily!"

  Jin Mingmei rarely understood them so thoroughly, considering their thoughts, and Cen Yanqiu almost cried with a runny nose. He was moved to tears, "Teacher, we know, thank you!"

  "What's with the thanks? I'm also a member of the club, you've forgotten, I'm an agent!" Jin Ming smiled complacently, she wouldn't tell them that when she was younger, she too was especially fond of anime.

  Cen Yanqiu felt a chill run up his spine as soon as he heard this, how could he dare to forget such an important thing? He reckoned that Jin Mingmei had probably forgotten herself. These days everyone was busy with club activities, but she just ignored them, relying on her status as teacher and class advisor.

  Of course, time is fleeting. Before everyone could come to their senses, the show was over. Thinking back, everyone was really too nervous at that time, and after getting off the stage, they didn't even remember what happened.

  But hearing a burst of applause, endless and ringing in my ears, I suddenly felt doubly delighted, this is the best reward.

  "Everyone, let's gather in the club room!" Xun Yanqiu stood at the front after getting off the stage and shouted excitedly.

  Everyone has just walked out of a tense atmosphere and into an exciting world, cheering and shouting "Great!"

  Of course, in the club classroom, Cen Yanqiu had already prepared a cake. No, it wasn't him who prepared it, he just paid for it and let Yang Chengyu prepare it. After all, Yang Chengyu kept saying that they must have cake today to reward their little friends.

  "Dad and mom are still watching the evening party, we ran here, suddenly feel particularly relaxed!" Fan Qixu said.

  Everyone cast their eyes in agreement.

  The sky has a bright moon hanging high.

  Everyone didn't know why they still had to go back to the club room, but the president had spoken, so of course they would all listen.

  Back in the dark classroom, Yang Chengyu had a sly smile on his face, with an air of mystery, "Everyone wait here in the corridor for a moment, I'll go in and turn on the lights first!"

  Yang Chengyu was the first to enter the classroom, but he didn't turn on the lights. Before long, several points of light appeared in the classroom, which were the soft glow of candles, shining faintly and beautifully.

  Everyone rushed into the classroom excitedly, "Wow, there's still cake to eat!" It was unclear who said that.

  Cen Yanqiu walked at the back, couldn't help but smile slightly.

  The candlelight was not bright enough to see Yang Chengyu's smile clearly, but he could feel that he was very happy. He paused for a moment and looked at Ji Ningning across from him, saying: "Today is Ningning's birthday, we've finally gathered together, let's celebrate her birthday with her!"

  "Wow, I see! " Zeng Xiao Hai couldn't help but look at Ji Ning Ning's happy face, revealing his cute little tiger teeth and dimples, "Ning Ning, happy birthday!"

  "Thanks Xiao Zeng!" Ji Ningning smiled slightly.

  When he heard Yang Chengyu's words, Cen Yanqiu was stunned at the time. How did he not know that today was Ji Ningning's birthday? No wonder Yang Chengyu would be so persistent in asking him to eat cake, it turned out to be for Ji Ningning! Fortunately, he agreed to buy a cake, otherwise, there would have been no way to spend the birthday with Ji Ningning today.

  Cen Yanqiu thought so and looked at Ji Ningning again, who was facing away from him. He couldn't see her expression but could sense her emotions.

  "Let's sing a birthday song quickly!" Yang Chengyu hastily presided over.

  Cen Yanqiu also hurried forward, squeezed to Ji Ningning's side, didn't say a word, just looked at the cake Yang Chengyu ordered, on which fifteen candles were lit, with several words written, "Wishing our dearest Ningning a happy birthday!"

  It's a very simple sentence, but it's something that Xun Yanqiu can't say out loud. It seems like from now on, he really can't make fun of Yang Chengyu and Ji Ningning anymore. Now, just thinking about connecting the two people together makes him feel especially disgusted and uncomfortable.

  "Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday..."

  At this time, all around were joyful birthday songs, everyone was singing and blessing Ji Ningning's 15th birthday.

  Cen Yanqiu paused for a while before slowly raising his head and joining in the birthday song, "Happy Birthday to you..."

  After singing the birthday song, Ou Yang Yun Qing, who had the most ideas, hurriedly shouted: "Ning Ning, make a wish quickly! Make a wish quickly!"

  "Great!" Ji Ningning's face was filled with happiness, she closed her eyes and made a standard wishing gesture with her hands, "My first wish is for everyone to make progress in their studies!"

  "Good!" Yang Chengyu on the opposite side couldn't help but applaud, and others saw it too, and hurriedly applauded.

  Ji Ningning said: "The second wish is that I hope our club will get better and better, and we can all grow up happily!"

  "This is great!" Cen Yanqiu was the first to applaud on the side, and of course, the students behind him followed suit without hesitation.

  Ji Ningning paused for a moment, and a sweet smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. "For my third wish, I hope that every time I compete with him in ball games, I can win!"

  "Wah wah! Good good!" Everyone exclaimed in unison, but only Cen Yan Qiu was stunned. He couldn't help but roll his eyes, Ji Ningning, aren't you trying to get me killed?

  Ji Ningning made a wish, and Yang Chengyu turned on the lights. The whole classroom lit up, and everyone was making noise while eating cake. Yang Chengyu, of course, had to liven things up, took the cake and smeared it all over Cen Yanqiu's face without any politeness.

  Everyone is chasing after each other, wanting to smear cake on others, yet afraid of being smeared with cake themselves.

  "You guys have noticed, we're wearing BLEACH outfits, it feels like BLEACH is having a birthday." Senior high school student Luo Xuanling couldn't help but excitedly say.

  "Today is especially happy!" Ji Ningning smiled sweetly.

  But everyone didn't make a fuss for long and came out of the classroom after all, the outside world is more beautiful, with a bright moon hanging in the sky, how wonderful.

  Everyone walked together on the campus path, Cen Yanqiu raised his head and looked at the round moon in the sky, smiled faintly, probably from now on, every time he encountered a full moon night, he would think of today, and also think of stupid Ji Ningning.

  Because the evening party was still going on, parents had not returned and were watching the evening party in the school auditorium, so they didn't know that the children had gone out to have fun.

  After the party ended, Cen Yanqiu sat in the car on his way home, still thinking about Ji Ningning's third wish. He felt that it was somewhat unthinkable, and although there was nothing special about it, he couldn't help but pay attention to it.

  "Qiu, I really didn't expect your acting skills to be so good!" said the mother sitting next to Qiu Yanqiu.

  The one driving was his father. His father had always been a man of few words and didn't say anything, just quietly listening to the sounds coming from behind him.

  Cen Yanqiu glanced at the time displayed on his phone, it was only 9:40, the evening party ended at 9:30, the school really thought this through, now he could go back and spend a happy Mid-Autumn Festival with his family.
