"How could I possibly agree to that!" Nuonuo said. "He just thinks he's so great; how could he possibly compare to you!"
"You already know this before we've even had a match?"
Nono didn't say anything, she just looked down at her feet in the pool.
Lin Chen shook his head, thinking that Nuonuo's impulsive nature was probably beyond redemption.
Nono was quiet for a moment, then suddenly said, "Today is my birthday."
Lin Chen's heart skipped a beat. He thought to himself, "No wonder he wasn't resting at school late at night, but instead had to wander around outside. So this is where he was waiting for me."
This is Nono's first birthday since coming to school, which happens to fall right after the start of the semester.
“When I was at home, no one remembered my birthday. Even if they did, they never prepared anything for me,” Nono continued. “Now that I’m in college, I didn’t receive any gifts on my birthday, but I did receive a confession.”
Lin Chen looked at Nuonuo: "There will be a cake, and there will be gifts too!"
Nono also turned to look at Lin Chen: "Are you planning to prepare it for me now?"
Late preparations are pointless; girls won't like that.
Lin Chen shook his head and looked up at the night sky in the distance.
Seeing that Lin Chen didn't respond, Nuonuo sighed, her pupils reflecting the desolate night.
Lin Chen suddenly snapped his fingers.
Word of Power: Show me the flower!
19: You have cream on your lips, I'll just eat it!
I got this strange Word of Power from the principal, and I never expected to find a use for it so soon.
This is a Word of Power that does not belong to the Word of Power periodic table, but the effect of using it is very good.
The literal translation is "give me flowers," but under these circumstances, flowers will be replaced by fireworks.
Nono looked at Lin Chen in surprise: "Why did you snap your fingers..."
Before the words were even finished, dazzling fireworks suddenly rose into the dark night sky.
Countless points of light rose from below, exploded high up, and blossomed into colorful flowers.
The beam of light illuminated half the sky, reflecting on Lin Chen and Nuonuo's faces.
Nono suddenly stood up: "Fireworks!"
Fireworks continued to bloom in the night sky, like flowers in full bloom.
It was a fireworks show of gala scale, with fireworks blooming one after another for nearly five minutes.
Nono waved her arms like a child, and tears streamed down her face as she jumped for joy.
“It’s so beautiful!”
The last firework rose into the sky, and the various colors of light spelled out words.
"nuonuo, happy birthday!"
Nono was stunned: "This is... for me?"
Lin Chen smiled and said, "nuonuo, there probably isn't another person with that name in Kassel College!"
Nono suddenly smiled, looking at the night sky where the lights had faded: "So beautiful! So wonderful!"
"Yes, it's beautiful!" Lin Chen's praise was heartfelt; this Word of Power was even more amazing than he had imagined.
Nono turned her head: "You prepared all of this? How did you know it was my birthday today!"
Lin Chen shrugged and casually made up an excuse: "I saw your file when you enrolled, and your birthday was in it!"
Nono nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly took Lin Chen's hand.
"Thank you, it must have taken a lot of work to prepare all this!"
Lin Chen thought to himself, "No, I didn't. I just found out it's your birthday today, so I snapped my fingers and the fireworks went off."
"happy?"
"I'm so happy!" Nono sat down, hugging Lin Chen's arm. "This is the first time someone has celebrated my birthday and even prepared such amazing fireworks!"
Nono rested her head on Lin Chen's shoulder, and Lin Chen turned his head slightly: "Nono..."
Nono looked up at Lin Chen, their breaths mingling, and Lin Chen could even smell the faint scent of perfume on Nono.
Feeling the close proximity, Nono subconsciously closed her eyes and brought her face closer.
Lin Chen scratched his head, realizing he simply wanted to talk.
Judging from Nono's expression, she clearly misunderstood something.
But since Nono has come to him, what is Lin Chen still hesitating about?
Just kiss!
After a deep kiss, Lin Chen finally raised his head.
Nuonuo blushed and looked at Lin Chen with a smile.
If it weren't for the inconvenient conditions in this remote and desolate place, Lin Chen would have really planned to continue doing something.
Lin Chen then continued what he hadn't finished saying earlier: "Nono, your birthday isn't over yet, let's go back and eat cake!"
"There's also cake!" Nono exclaimed in surprise.
"A birthday celebration isn't complete without fireworks, but it also needs a cake to feel truly perfect!"
While the fireworks were going off, Lin Chen ordered a birthday cake from the school cafeteria on his phone. The cake was delivered to Nuonuo's dorm room, just enough for Lin Chen and Nuonuo to go back.
Nuonuo jumped up, shook the water off her feet, put on her shoes, and pulled Lin Chen toward the academy.
"Slow down..." Lin Chen said helplessly, "My shoes aren't on properly yet!"
Nono knelt down and tied Lin Chen's shoelaces: "Hey, is this okay?"
At this moment, Nono pulled Lin Chen along, her steps as light as a deer's.
……
When I arrived at Nono's dormitory, no one was in the room.
Nono picked up her phone: "Susie messaged me. She said she successfully joined the Lionheart Club and is receiving a lot of attention. There's a small welcome event tonight, so she probably won't be back until very late!"
Lin Chen glanced around and saw that the girls' dormitory was clean and tidy, and filled with an unknown fragrance.
He's so much better than that good-for-nothing Fingel!
Lin Chen stood in front of the table: "This is my first time entering a girl's bedroom. Isn't this a bit too abrupt?"
"How could that be!" Nuonuo pressed Lin Chen down to sit on her bed. "You can sleep here!"
Lin Chen coughed twice unconsciously, wondering if there was any other meaning behind Nuonuo's words.
The doorbell rang, and the cafeteria's takeout arrived at the door.
Lin Chen took the cake, unwrapped it, and placed it on the table.
It was a small, round cake decorated with various bouquets of flowers in cream.
There were words written on the empty space.
Happy birthday, Nuonuo!
Nono gave Lin Chen a bear hug: "This is amazing! My own birthday cake!"
Lin Chen rubbed Nuonuo's head and lit the candles on the cake.
Next, Lin Chen lit the candles and turned off the dormitory lights.
"Close your eyes and make a wish." Lin Chen softly sang that old-fashioned Happy Birthday song.
The candlelight illuminated Nuonuo's face, and two lines of clear tears streamed down her cheeks.
This was the second time she had cried tonight.
Nono opened her eyes and blew out all the candles.
Lin Chen turned on the lights and clapped at Nuonuo: "Happy birthday!"
"Thank you!" Nono's face flushed with excitement. "Aren't you going to ask me what I wished for?"
Lin Chen thought to himself, "I'd rather eat cake..."
"What is the promise?"
Nuonuo looked at Lin Chen mischievously: "I hope you can spend every birthday with me from now on!"
"Wishes don't come true if you say them out loud."
"Lin Chen, you..." Nuonuo punched Lin Chen's chest, "Then why didn't you stop me?"
"I'm curious!"
"You just know how to bully me..." Nuonuo pouted, smeared some cream on Lin Chen's face.
Lin Chen wasn't idle either; he also smeared cream on Nuonuo's face.
