Chapter 161: Precious Gifts New Year’s Eve passed, and spring came soon, and the university was once again a bustling scene. Spring came not long ago, and summer followed suit.
Seeing that Lin Yao's birthday is coming soon, Huo Ting'en has been thinking about what gift to give Lin Yao
A few days ago, he took a fancy to a diamond ring in the store. Although it was only 30 points, the color, clarity, cut, and style were all good. Of course, the price was not cheap.
Huo Ting'en thought for a long time whether he should buy it or not.
But Gu Kaijie poured cold water on her: You will graduate in one year. If you use up all your savings to buy this gift for A-Yao, what will you use to pay for tuition next year? A-Yao is not such a superficial woman. If she knew you were using
I spent so much money to buy this diamond for her, but she might not be happy. Isn't the ring for marriage proposal? It's too weird to give her a ring on her birthday!
Huo Ting'en gave up the idea of buying a ring for Lin Yao. He still wanted a special gift for his birthday!
Huo Tingen was walking aimlessly when he suddenly saw a plaque with the four golden characters "Pengcheng Wanli" hanging in an old gold shop on the side of the road, and an idea flashed in his heart.
He walked into the gold shop and saw an old man with white hair watching TV leisurely. When Huo Ting'en came in and asked, "Young man, what do you want to buy?"
"Excuse me, did your word come out or was it painted on?" Huo Ting'en said, pointing to the card player who had traveled thousands of miles.
"Haha~ Other stores may be painted, but the words in my store are all typed," the old man said quite proudly.
"Then, can you teach me how to type a word?" Huo Ting'en's eyes were shining brightly, and his face was filled with joy.
"You~ you are so strange as a young man? Are you not here to buy anything?"
"I want to buy it~ but I want to fight it myself?" Huo Ting'en said
"This craft is passed down from our ancestors. It should not be passed on to others. Don't go elsewhere to buy things. Don't stop me from watching TV." The old man was trying to push Huo Ting'en out.
But Huo Tingen grabbed the old man's hand and said, "Master, I really just want to learn to type one word, just one word~"
"Don't even say a word, walk, walk, walk~" the old man drove Huo Ting'en out.
Huo Ting'en lingered for a while and left.
But for the next week, he came to beg his master every day, but he never agreed and always kicked him out.
Huo Ting'en stood at the door. He was kicked out again, but he didn't want to give up. He had to get his master to agree to teach him today no matter what. A Yao's birthday was imminent. If he didn't fight, he would be too late and he would fight again soon.

"Here you go again~" The old man was about to pick up the broom and chase people away.
"I'm here to buy something!" Huo Ting'en shouted.
The old man glanced with disdain and said coldly: "What to buy?"
"You can buy anything, gold, silver, whatever, but I want to make it myself."
"Get out of here~" The old man picked up the broom and swept Huo Ting'en out.
He was kicked out again and couldn't give up. Huo Tinggen, who was unwilling to give up, turned back again.
"You kid~ It's really~" The white-haired old man blew his beard angrily
"What's so noisy~" A slightly fat middle-aged woman came out
"This kid is here to cause trouble!" the old man said.
"No, I just want to ask the master to teach me how to type."
"Typing~ Young man, this skill is inherited from our ancestors and is not passed down to outsiders." The woman said with a smile: "Why are you typing?"
"My girlfriend's birthday is coming soon. In fact, it's okay for me to ask the master to give me a shot, but I still think I'm happy enough."
"Oh~ I can't believe that such a handsome boy can be so dedicated." The woman smiled even wider, "I can ask him to teach you how to type this word, but if you want him to teach you, you must follow the apprentice's etiquette and give him respect.
Cha calls him master, so that he does not violate the rules of his ancestors. Also~ If you are an apprentice, you should act like an apprentice and do all the miscellaneous things here."
"Honey, what are you doing~" The old man was not very willing.
"Okay~ This kid has made you rush so many times and he always comes back. If you don't teach him, he will come every day and you won't be annoyed to death every day. Why don't you just say a word? Compare it with your ancestral craftsmanship.
"Get up, it's just a drop in the bucket, don't be too stingy." The woman interrupted him and said to Huo Ting'en: "Of course you have to pay for gold and silver yourself."
"Of course, thank you, boss lady" Huo Ting'en jumped up with joy
The word "journeyman" is so unfamiliar to Huo Ting'en. But for Lin Yao, he really learned to do all the things that he didn't know and that were difficult to do.
The landlady always sighs, that Yao is so happy
The master said, he didn’t have any foundation before, so he shouldn’t waste gold. Breaking and wasting gold is equivalent to wasting money. The master told him to start with silver.
In this way, Huo Ting'en went to class during school hours, and spent all his time in the gold shop after class. He also told Gu Kaijie to hide Lin Yao's secrets for him.
For people who have no foundation at all, it is not easy to make gold and beat it into a character. Huo Tinggen always beats it and then melts it, and melts it and beats it again, even though the word "Yao" is watered with sweat.
, using all your heart and soul just to bring out every edge and corner.
Finally, on the night of Lin Yao's birthday, I typed out the word "Yao" after all the hard work.
The master felt sorry for him and only calculated the money with him. Not even a penny of the wages was counted. The master meant that he paid it himself, so what kind of wages was it? So when the final settlement was made, the pendant and a silver necklace were no more than a penny.
two hundred dollars
Huo Tingen came to the appointed playground, where Lin Yao and Gu Kaijie were already waiting for him. They laid a piece of oilcloth paper on the grass with snacks, drinks, fruits, and cakes on it.
As soon as he saw Huo Ting'en coming, Gu Kaijie said immediately: "Brother, today is your girlfriend's birthday. You should not be late. You should be fined with Santing beer."
"That's right, Enting, not only were you late, but you also showed that you didn't deserve to be punished. You added Santing beer," Lin Yao winked at him and said playfully.
"You two didn't let me take a breath when I first arrived. You punished me as soon as I spoke. Are you colluding to punish me?" Huo Ting'en sat next to Lin Yao.
"I'm kidding you, are you serious?" Lin Yao pinched his face and said, "You really didn't say anything?"
"No," Huo Ting'en said, reaching out and pinching her face back.
"Hey, there is a third person here, pay attention!" Gu Kaijie said, "Ayao, make a wish and blow out the candles." Gu Kaijie put the candle on the cake.
"Forget it, I'm in a good mood today. I'll let you go and I'll make a wish." Lin Yao said, clasping her hands, closing her eyes, and lowering her head to make a wish.
At this time, she only felt a pair of hands crossing her neck. There was a feeling on her neck. She opened her eyes with a cool feeling, and there was an extra necklace around her neck.
"Ting En, this is~" He lowered his head and looked at the necklace with the word "Yao" written on it.
"Happy birthday, Ayao" Huo Tingen looked at her and said affectionately
"Don't you always ask him what he has been doing recently? I help him lie all day long, lying to you that he went to the study hall. You can tell with your toes, is a person like him that serious? He,
Go to the gold shop opposite the school to learn how to make gold, and what you are going to make is this necklace around your neck." Gu Kaijie said to Lin Yao that although he also liked A Yao very much, since A Yao chose Ting En, Ting En is so
If he cares about A Yao, then he should be an adult and bless them. Who calls them two his best friends?
"Ting En, was it really you who hit this?" Lin Yao asked
"Well, I begged the master for a week before he agreed to teach me how to type the word 'Yao'. Although this is very cheap, I really put my heart into it. Do you like it?" Huo Ting'en asked Lin Yao.
"I like it, of course I like it. This is your intention. It shines brighter than diamonds." Lin Yao's eyes were filled with tears of emotion and she hugged Huo Ting'en tightly.
"Okay, you two, don't keep showing off your kindness in front of me. I'm so sad. Are you still going to eat?" Gu Kaijie teased them from the side.
"Don't come here. You are the taekwondo champion of the school. Girls who want to be with you can queue up from here to the gate. Are you sad? Who are you lying to?" Lin Yao stuck out her tongue at Gu Kaijie.
Gu Kaijie smiled helplessly at Huo Ting'en. Only Huo Ting'en understood what this smile meant. That night, they turned wine into song and had a great time.
This is the first time that Lin Yao has received such a sincere gift in her life. For this gift, a person like Huo Tingen, who loves cleanliness, can actually put down his body and do odd jobs! This gift is so precious, and he carries Huo Tingen's full heart.
Lin Yao never wants to take off this necklace in this life.
