Searching for Treasures in the Clouds

To Yu Ru, customers are God and nothing is more important than making money. If the personal matter is not particularly urgent, she usually replies to the customer first.

When Yun Jixing sent her a message, a client happened to contact her. She chose to reply to the client's message first without hesitation and accidentally forgot about Yun Jixing's message.

At this time today, she suddenly remembered that she hadn't checked the messages she hadn't replied to for a few days, so she looked down one by one, and then she found that she had read but not replied to dozens of messages sent by Yun Jixing.

Looking at the message sent by Yu Ru, Yun Jixing breathed a sigh of relief, and the big stone in his heart finally fell. After considering his words, he replied: I was worried about you when I saw you didn't reply to the message, I'm glad you're okay.

Yu Ru replied with a "hmm".

Yunjixing thought about it and sent her another message: Ah Ru, my birthday is the twelfth day of the winter month in the lunar calendar. I usually celebrate my birthday according to the lunar calendar. My birthday will be in half a month, which happens to be on the day of Double Twelve. Can you celebrate my birthday with me? Just the two of us.

Yu Ru replied: No.

When Yun Jixing wanted to send a reply, Yu Ru sent another sentence: But I can give you a birthday present.

This swept away his feeling of loss, and he quickly responded: Aru, if I can eat the delicious food you make yourself, it will be the best gift I have ever received. Can I wish for a glutinous rice cake?

Glutinous rice cake...

Yu Ru couldn't help but smile when she saw these words, and then replied: OK.

Half a month later,

Today is Yun Jixing's birthday. He usually doesn't hold a party for his birthday. He just lets Xi Yizai and Jiang Zaizhou accompany him for a meal, and then have another meal at his parents' house.

He planned to have his birthday dinner at home this time, at Jianshan Yunting's house. They would cook for themselves and started working in the afternoon.

"Xiao Xin, Taoist Priest, I bought some super spicy peppers. Do you want to eat some super spicy chicken?" Jiang Zaizhou asked, holding up a bag of peppers.

Yun Jixing shook his head, "I don't eat it. I'm keeping healthy. Why did you think of buying this?"

"No, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of bed or go to the toilet after eating." Xi Yizai also shook his head.

"Isn't this my normal operation?" Jiang Zaizhou said with a smile.

"Then you taste it yourself. We won't accompany you. Just make some chili sauce by yourself and don't cause trouble for us." Xi Yizai said.

Jiang Zaizhou sighed and said, "We'll be alone if we want to. Don't let the chili sauce I made make you cry."

He is not exaggerating. He can cook, but because he likes spicy food, he makes particularly delicious chili sauce. He even went to the places of origin of some famous dishes to learn how to make chili sauce from a master chef.

"We may not cry because of our greed, but you will definitely cry because of the spiciness." Yun Jixing said with a smile.

Xi Yizai squatted down and searched the cupboard, and asked, "Xiao Xin, how much cake do you want to eat? How big a mold should you use?"

"Let me see." Yun Jixing also squatted down and took out several cake molds from the cabinet to compare them. "Let's make a ten-inch one."

"It's so big?" Jiang Zaizhou asked in surprise, "Can you finish it?"

Yun Jixing turned to look at him and responded, "Aru and her friends live upstairs. I'll send some to them later."

"Sweetheart lives upstairs?" Jiang Zaizhou excitedly held Yun Jixing's shoulders, "I say, you have nothing to do, so you bought an identical house to live in. Aren't you bored? So you stole sweetheart over here, are you together? Weren't you just friends last time? How come things are progressing so fast?"

As he spoke, he shook the Yunji Star.

Yun Jixing grabbed his hand to stop him from shaking and said, "You asked so many questions at once that I don't know how to answer you."

"Then just answer them one by one."

"Why did the girl agree to come here?" Xi Yizai asked again.

"We are not together. She lives here now and pays rent to me. Something happened in the house she lived in before, and I suggested it to her for a long time before she moved here." Yun Jixing replied.

"So..." Jiang Zaizhou was a little disappointed, "I thought you were together."

"Hey." Xi Yizai looked like he had thought of a good idea. "Is that girl at home now? Xiaoxin, you can invite her and her friends over. Although Jiang Xiaochuan and I don't know them, we can get to know them on the spot."

Yun Jixing thought for a moment and said, "No, Ah Ru...she doesn't like to interact with strangers. Unless it's required for work, she won't interact with strangers. She also doesn't like crowded places. She won't want to stay in places with more than four people for a long time."

"That little sweetheart, has she got all the buffs of an introvert and socially anxious person stacked up?" Jiang Zaizhou asked.

"That can't be said. She..." Yun Jixing's mind flashed with Yu Ru's smiling face in the past. After a pause, he continued, "Aru likes quietness."

Xi Yizai patted Yun Jixing on the shoulder and asked, "Xiao Xin, what incredible thing did you think of? Why did you look so sad just now?"

"I……"

At this moment, Yun Jixing's cell phone suddenly rang several times in succession. This alert tone was different from other alert tones. He set it specially for Yu Ru. As long as it rang, he knew that Yu Ru was looking for him.

"Wait a minute, it seems like Aru is looking for me."

When they heard that it was Yu Ru who came to see them, Xi Yizai and Jiang Zaizhou turned their backs on him and didn't look at the chat interface between him and Yu Ru. Jiang Zaizhou snorted and said, "Xiao Xin, you value love over friendship. You fell in love with the little sweetheart and left us both aside."

"I don't. I maintain a balance of all my emotions. No matter what emotion it is, it's important."

Yun Jixing retorted and immediately took out his phone to check. Sure enough, it was a message from Yu Ru. She wrote: Are you home? I'm here to give you a birthday present.

Xi Yizai and Jiang Zaizhou looked at each other. Seeing that he was so blinded that he couldn't pay attention to anything else, they smiled helplessly and shook their heads. Jiang Zaizhou winked at Xi Yizai and whispered, "It's still balanced. He takes it as vitamins."

When Xi Yizai heard what he said, he laughed so hard that his shoulders were shaking.

Yun Jixing ignored them completely. He replied to Yu Ru as quickly as he could: Ah Ru, I'm home. Are you here? I'll go open the door now.

Yu Ru replied: No, I'll go over now.

As soon as the news came out, Yun Jixing immediately stood up, greeted Xi Yizai and Jiang Zaizhou, and quickly walked towards the door of his house.

After waiting at the door for a while, Yu Ru came over. She was holding a big bag in each hand. Seeing this, Yun Jixing hurriedly trotted forward to take the things in her hands.

"Aru, why did you bring so much?"

With her hands freed, Yu Ru stood up straight. She took out a small card from her pocket and unfolded it in front of Yun Jixing. It read: Happy birthday to you.
