By the time Ji Luci took the birthday cake back from the cake shop, everyone had already started grilling in the yard.

"Lu Ci, you're back." Wen Yun was the first to shout when he saw Ji Luci stepping into the yard.Ji Luci walked towards them, and then put the birthday cake on the table.

"Second brother, I'm sorry. These two brats are in a hurry to eat, so they didn't wait for you." Shu Yi looked at Ji Luci, scratched his hair, and said.

Ji Luci raised the corner of his mouth and said, "It's okay. The cake is back, let's make a wish first."

In fact, Shu Yi and the others don't particularly like sweets like cakes.However, as a foodie in the team, Ji Luli really loves this kind of dessert.So whenever someone in the team had a birthday, he used the saying 'you must eat a birthday cake' to make Ji Lu resign every time to buy a cake.And every time the last owner of the birthday cake is only him.

Ji Luli couldn't wait to open the cake, and then helped to insert the candles.

Seeing this, Shu Yi couldn't help joking, "I've never seen you be so eager and diligent in doing things. Why, now I really want to eat cake?"

"Oh, fourth brother! Anyway, if you hurry up and make a wish, you will get it. You know what I want to eat and ask what you want to do." Ji Luli simply admitted this, and wrinkled his nose towards Shu Yi after speaking.

"Understood." Shu Yi looked at this gluttonous younger brother, and grinned.He glanced at everyone, then clasped his hands together, and closed his eyes.

After a while, Shu Yi opened his eyes, looking at everyone with excitement in his eyes, "Okay, everyone, eat quickly."

"Yeah! Let's eat!" Ji Luli was the first one to shout, "Brother, I want to eat this chicken wing." Ji Luli brought the plate of raw chicken wings in front of Ji Luci.

Ji Luci looked at his younger brother, reluctantly took the raw chicken wings in his hand, and then walked to the grill.

Although Shu Yi knew that this cake would inevitably fall into Ji Luli's stomach in the end.But he still gave everyone present a piece of cake.Only then did he turn around and walk to Ji Luci's side, helping them grill the food together.

When he returned to the dining table with a full load of food, he realized that Ji Luli had already wiped out their cakes.Originally, Yin Rang was going to join in, but the overly sweet taste of the cream made him stop after taking a sip.

Shu Yi looked at Michael who was closest to her, but found that the cake on the latter's original plate was running out.Shu Yi originally thought that Michael would not like this sweet and greasy taste, but he did not expect that this person had almost wiped out the cake.

Shu Yi watched Michael stuff the last bite of cake into the corner of his mouth, and then asked, "Caleb, do you like eating cake?"

The latter turned to look at him when he heard what he said, and then asked unexpectedly, "Huh? What did you just say?"

Seeing this situation, Shu Yi seemed somewhat surprised and delighted in his heart.

So...has this man been devoting himself to eating his own cake?So concentrated that you didn't even hear what you just asked clearly?

"I'm asking, is this cake delicious?"

"..." Michael paused for a second or two when he heard this, and then replied vaguely, "...um."

However, Shu Yi seemed a little happy with Michael's answer.

It turns out that Caleb also likes to eat sweets... However, I still can't tell...

Shu Yi, who knew what the other party liked, simply asked again, "How about I cut another piece for you?" There was unstoppable joy in his words.

Michael was only silent when he heard this.But Shu Yi already knew his answer.If it was something Michael didn't like, he would definitely reject it without hesitation, but now, he just kept silent.

Shu Yi didn't continue to ask him, but got up and said to Ji Luli, "Lu Li, bring the cake from your side!"

Hearing Shu Yi's words, Ji Luli looked at the half of the untouched cake, and moved the cake a few more points in front of him as if protecting a treasure.

"Fourth brother, don't you not like cakes? Why do you want to fight with me!" After finishing speaking, he showed a pitiful look.

Shu Yi was unmoved when he heard these words. He glanced at Michael, who was sitting next to him, who had always been calm, but he found that the latter's eyes were not looking at Ji Luli at all, but the one in front of him. A big slice of cake.

Seeing this situation, Shu Yi immediately said again, "It's my birthday today, why did you let your fourth brother eat a piece of cake for me?"

In fact, Ji Luli was not really stingy, he stuck out his tongue at Shu Yi when he heard Shu Yi's words, and then handed the cake to Shu Yi.

Shu Yi unceremoniously cut a large piece of cake and put it in a new plate, and then handed the cake to Michael.Ji Luli, who was still a little unhappy at first, laughed when he saw this situation, and then said, "Fourth brother! It seems that you are the only one who treats fifth brother well! If fifth brother wants to eat, you can tell me directly Well, I'll give him whatever you want. Hmph!"

"You boy, I don't think you will give it if you want it, but you will give it if your fifth brother asks you for it. I have loved you for nothing all these years!" Shu Yi naturally pushed back jokingly.

Ji Luli was not afraid of Shu Yi's words, he walked directly to Michael's side, then hugged Michael from behind, and said coquettishly to Michael, "Fifth brother, if you If fourth brother doesn't love me, tell me, are you still here?"

Michael was bumped into by Ji Luli's strong hug, and he knocked to the edge of the table. Seeing this, Shu Yi couldn't help but stop him, "Ji Luli, get off of Caleb!"

"Fifth brother! Look, fourth brother is attacking me again!"

During this period of time, as the youngest two in the family, Ji Luli and Yin Rang have already figured out the number of Shu Yi's sets. As long as the matter is related to Michael, the former will never dare to make mistakes.

Sure enough, when Ji Luli complained to Michael, Shu Yi couldn't help but go crazy, but it was hard to get angry when he saw Michael present.But at this scene, Yin Rang, who was opposite them, couldn't help laughing.He even laughed so hard that he fell off his chair.

Seeing this situation, Wen Yun immediately helped Yin Rang up, and asked with concern, "Yin Rang, what's the matter, did you fall down?"

"Captain... so... it hurts, hahahaha."

Seeing this situation, Wen Yun immediately asked worriedly, "Where does it hurt?"

"Stomach hurts, it hurts so much from laughing! Hahaha...Seeing how deflated the fourth brother is really...hahaha..." Seeing Yin Rang's eyes, Wen Yun was about to burst into tears from laughter, and he was sure that he didn't fall on him just now Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief for the wound on his back that had just healed.

Seeing this situation, Shu Yi simply said to Michael, "Caleb, did you see that I didn't bully them, they were obviously making fun of me."

Seeing that Shu Yi looked a little 'wronged', Michael saw that the two youngest were smiling happily, and simply followed them and said, "You are older than them, so don't worry about it."

"I..." Hearing this, Shu Yi sighed helplessly.On the contrary, Wen Yun and others laughed softly when they saw him like this, and among them, the ones who laughed the most were Ji Luli and Yin Rang...

……

After dinner, Shu Yi mysteriously brought Michael to the roof, and after the two of them sat down, Shu Yi handed Michael the beer he just picked up downstairs.

After Michael took it, he asked, "Why did you call me here?"

Shu Yi opened the beer on his own, took a sip, and then looked up at the night sky, but there wasn't any vast starry sky that appeared in the movie scene, and some were just pitch black.

Shu Yi had no choice but to look sideways at Michael again, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Today is my birthday."

"…I know."

"Then can you give me a birthday present?"

"..." Michael turned his head to look at Shu Yi's expectant eyes, couldn't help but sighed, and then said, "I promise you one request." Seeing Shu Yi's happier smile, Micah Le added, "Not too much."

Seeing this, Shu Yi nodded quickly.Then he asked, "Caleb, can you tell me what your real identity is? And... where did you live before?"

Although the two of them met in Area E, Shu Yi also knew that Michael was not from Area E at all.In fact, after such a long time, Shu Yi has been very sure about his feelings for Michael.So, in fact, he wanted to know more about Michael, but the other party kept silent.But today, he directly took this opportunity to ask out.

When Michael heard this, he was still stunned, and then asked, "Why do you have to know my origin?"

"Because I want to know how the person I like lived in the past." Shu Yi answered quickly.It was just this answer that made Michael choose to remain silent.

I have heard this sentence from his mouth more than once.Now I can no longer easily take his words as a joke...

"Caleb, I think I've thought clearly. The feeling I have for you is that I like you. Although I don't know when it started..." Shu Yi looked at Michael who had been silent all this time, knowing that he probably wouldn't be able to ask him today. This answer, I simply grinned and said seriously, "However, even if I don't know your background, I still like you. This will not change!"

Michael looked at such a serious beam, and after hearing these words, he didn't know how to describe his feeling at the moment.For such a long time, Shu Yi's maintenance and concern for himself, in fact, Michael can easily feel... After living in J District for so long, since that person died, it has been a long time since no one cared about him so much. every move...

Michael looked at Shu Yi who was drinking with his head up, and felt an inexplicable impulse in his heart.

If... If we can really be together in the future, then I will tell you everything about me.

"I don't answer this question. I'll give you another chance. What birthday gift do you want?" Michael changed the subject.

"Really?!" Shu Yi, who heard this, looked at Michael excitedly again.The original unanswered question has already wasted this opportunity, "I can do anything?"

Although Michael wanted to answer no, but thinking that it was impossible for Shu Yi to do too much to him, he simply nodded and acquiesced to his statement.

After hearing this, Shu Yi suddenly looked at Michael very seriously, and he shouted softly, "...Caleb. Actually, I have wanted to do this for a long time."

"Ok?"

Before Michael could react, Shu Yi leaned over and kissed his lips.
