Qin Yuanshan added: "Your second senior brother has spent more than half of the year practicing outside. I'm afraid if we don't mention it, he himself doesn't know that his birthday has arrived."
With Xie Cheng's kind of character, even if he knew about it, he wouldn't care.
"But he remembered Third Senior Brother's birthday. Before, Second Senior Brother told me that Third Senior Brother's birthday was coming soon, so I hurriedly prepared gifts."
Chi Zao felt that the second senior brother was the kind of person who was cold on the inside and hot on the outside, with a more delicate mind.
"Your second senior brother has never cared much about things like his birthday."
Qin Yuanshan said, as if he remembered something, he sighed quietly, then took Butler Qin's menu and looked at it.
"That's it. In our Yunxuan Sect, you know the tastes of the masters and disciples best."
Qin Yuanshan returned the menu to Butler Qin.
Butler Qin took it and said with a smile: "It should be said that you and everyone are used to the taste of my cooking."
It is said that it is difficult to reconcile a consensus.
But the food cooked by Butler Qin can make everyone, Qin Yuanshan's master and disciples, praise it.
I guess a lot of effort was put into it.
Because the next day is Xie Cheng’s birthday.
The other three senior brothers also came back for dinner today.
Xiao Yu pushed Chi Zao to the hall to have dinner with everyone.
When several senior brothers saw her, they all came over to inquire about her health condition with great concern.
Chi Zao said that he was recovering well, so everyone felt relieved.
Shen Yubai suddenly clapped his hands and said, "Why don't you see the second senior brother coming? Didn't he forget his birthday again?"
Chi Zao: "Again?"
Jiang Wenyuan explained with a smile: "Every year for the second junior brother's birthday, I send him a text message in advance to remind him that he will come back to Yunxuanmen for a dinner. You were injured a few days ago, and he hurried back. I even mentioned it to him when I left.
I didn’t send him a message to remind him.”
On the side, Shang Xunting shook the mobile phone in his hand and said to everyone: "Asking, the second senior brother happened to fly to G City yesterday, and now he has just boarded the plane back to Kyoto."
I definitely won't be able to make it back in time for dinner.
Qin Yuanshan walked in.
Next to him was Butler Qin.
Knowing that Xie Cheng had not arrived yet, Qin Yuanshan said to everyone: "Then don't wait for him, let's eat first."
Anyway, tomorrow’s birthday dinner is the highlight.
As long as Xie Cheng can arrive before dinner tomorrow, that will be fine.
On the dinner table.
Shen Yubai quietly asked Chi Zao what gift he had prepared for his second senior brother.
Chi Zao raised his eyebrows and said instead: "I have no experience in this, why don't Fourth Senior Brother tell me what you have prepared so that I can refer to it?"
Shen Yubai was curious.
He didn't care that she was so 'anti-general', he shook his head and sighed: "I'm not prepared. The second senior brother dislikes the things I prepare every time and it's hard to bring them with me, so I can only keep them at home and watch them. This has been going on for two or three years."
You don’t want me to give you any gifts.”
And a gift that both senior brothers rejected?
Chi Zao's curiosity was aroused and he couldn't help but ask: "So, Fourth Senior Brother, what did you give as gifts before?"
Shen Yubai raised his chin with a ruffian and a little proud expression, pretending to be mysterious and not saying anything.
Chi Zao was helpless.
Do you think she won't know?
She decisively turned to look at Shang Xunting and asked about this.
Shang Xunting did not save Shen Yubai any face, and said directly with a smile: "What the fourth junior brother gave to the second senior brother were all new weapons developed by their army's research and development department."
Chi Zao: "???"
The fourth senior brother’s gift is actually so hardcore?!
Shen Yubai is also very proud, "I personally participate in the design, and it is different every year. Senior brother, third senior brother, master, and steward Qin are all there!"
Shang Xunting continued to make trouble: "But generally the gifts given by the fourth junior brother can only be displayed at home for viewing."
Chi Zao tilted his head, curiously waiting for the next explanation.
Xiao Yu on the side put the peeled shrimp into Chi Zao's bowl and continued: "The gifts from Mr. Shen are all new weapons secretly developed by the army. If ordinary people use them, they will most likely be invited to the army. Have tea.”
Shang Xunting: "Yes, even if we have registered, it is basically difficult to use it. For example, junior sister, do you think I need to bring a submachine gun or a body armor when I go out?"
Chi Zao's hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly, "It's true... it's an exaggeration."
The safety factor of domestic society is relatively high.
Unlike foreign countries where guns are not banned, shootings occur every day.
Even if it is used for daily self-defense, most multi-functional folding self-defense knives are used.
The main thing is that the more convenient it is to carry, the better.
Submachine guns and body armor are really only needed by people with special professions.
"Hey! Junior sister, please don't listen to their nonsense, it will make the gifts I gave you useless. I still gave you a lot of new research and development products that I usually use, okay?"
Shen Yubai refused to accept it and tried hard to defend himself.
Jiang Wenyuan glanced at him, "For example, a hidden electronic pinhole camera? Or night sunglasses? I use these when I go out. I think I should be equipped with a hood."
"Yes. I remember that my fourth junior brother gave me a perfume when I went there. I thought he would finally give me a normal gift. But when I opened it and smelled it for less than three seconds, I fell down."
Shang Xunting looked speechless.
Chi Zao was confused: "Ecstasy?"
Shang Xunting raised his eyebrows: "No... not only that, it also has a hallucinogenic effect. Just smelling it once, I had a weird nightmare all night. I dreamed that I turned into a mushroom, was pecked by chickens, bitten by dogs, and kicked by feet. Step on, be pulled hard by life..."
Chi Zao: "..."
Okay, so miserable.
"Ahem! That's a special perfume developed by our troops with great effort. With it, our efficiency in arresting criminal suspects has skyrocketed, and we even won the most practical internal research and development award last year!"
Shen Yubai himself didn't feel that there was anything wrong with the gifts he gave.
On the contrary, I am even more proud.
"These gifts are very special and commemorative, and most people can't get them!"
As he said that, he raised the corner of his mouth again and smiled at Chi Zao: "Little junior sister, wait for your birthday. Senior brother will definitely give you the best birthday gift. It is safe, practical, powerful, and can always protect you!"
"..."
Chi Zao swallowed his saliva.
Should she say she's looking forward to it, or... don't bother?
After dinner, several people dispersed.
After returning to the room, Chi Zao took out his cell phone and took a look.
It was discovered that Jian Yichen sent her a message on x.
【Chi Zao, are you okay?】
[I heard that you haven’t gone to class recently. Doesn’t that mean your injury is not serious? 】
Chi Zao thought for a moment and replied: [It’s really not serious, I just need to rest. What about you?]
…
Hospitals affiliated to Lu Family.
In the VIP ward.
Jian Yichen was lying on the hospital bed, holding his mobile phone and looking at the reply sent by Chi Zao, with mixed emotions.
【Yeah. I'm fine too and will be discharged from the hospital soon.】
This message has just been sent out.
The ward door was pushed open.
Meng Feiyu walked in with an apologetic look, followed by Jian Congpeng and Mrs. Jian.
Jian Yichen's expression suddenly changed, and he subconsciously pulled up the quilt, covering his upper body, and sat up, "Dad, Mom, why are you here?"
Mother Jian walked to the hospital bed in two steps and looked him up and down.
Unable to resist, I grabbed his quilt and pulled it down.
Once pulled apart.
I saw that his arms, abdomen, and chest were all covered with bandages to cover wounds.
