Chapter 434: What did he give you?
"Looking at you, you've been working a lot of overtime lately."

At ten o'clock in the evening, in Rina Tashisei's bedroom, Rina Tashisei, who had changed into pajamas, was lying in front of her desk, silently looking at Ai Hoshino on the screen of her mobile phone.

The girl was lying in the bathtub with a comfortable look on her face, squinting her eyes and enjoying this rare moment of relaxation.

"Yes."

Hoshino Ai opened her eyes, looked at the mobile phone wrapped in a waterproof bag, and nodded with a depressed look on her face.

She hasn't had a day off in quite some time.

To be more specific, it’s been eighteen days.

"Stop talking about my affairs. It's annoying to talk about work matters in private." Hoshino muttered, then picked up the phone, pointed it at his face, and then mentioned another matter with a smile. , "Looking at you, you seem to be quite happy at today's birthday party?"

If time allowed, she actually wanted to join in the fun.

"You are so sure that I am happy? Instead of feeling tired?"

Rina Toshima raised her eyebrows and asked in return.

"If you are tired, then you don't have this expression." Hoshino smiled sadly and complained like Rina Toshima in the past, "You don't know, those students..."

She was very familiar with this level of starting moves.

If Rina Toshima is willing, she can even retell it in several different ways without repeating it.

"..."

Rina Tsugumi fell silent.

At this moment, she suddenly felt that it was not a good thing for her friends to know her too well.

At least at this time, there is no room for quibbles.

"So." Hoshino Ai shrugged, putting on an expression of 'it's true', then raised his head and looked at the steamy ceiling, "Did you get the gift you wanted?"

The bathroom was so quiet that you could even hear the sound of water sloshing along with her movements.

"Got."

Speaking of this matter, Rina Toshima's tone was somewhat subtle.

All she could say about the gifts given by everyone was that they were very thoughtful.

But if you think about it carefully, it is indeed what you can use on a daily basis.

"What's your tone?" Xingye Ai frowned, "Why does it sound like you're not satisfied?"

It doesn't make sense.

I told your little boyfriend everything you like and want.

It can't be wrong, right?

"It's not that I'm not dissatisfied, but I'm a little bit emotional." Rina Toshima put the phone on the stand, propped up her chin with her left hand, and there was a complex look on her face. "Let's put it this way, the gifts I received are all of great practical value."

She's not saying those gifts are bad, it's just that as a recipient of gifts, her mood is really complicated.

"Can you be more specific?"

Hoshino Ai lowered his eyebrows and looked at Rina Toshima on the phone screen.

She didn't like this kind of conversation that was almost like charades.

At work, she could only say that she had had enough of this kind of conversation.

"Shiori gave me a pen."

Rina Toshima caught Hoshino Ai's gaze and didn't show off any more.

"Isn't this great? Just like you said, it's very practical."

Hearing this, Hoshino Ai frowned. She couldn't think of anything that her best friend would find subtle.

"Xue Sha gave me a beautiful hair tie."

Rina Toshima continued to talk.

She is personally quite satisfied with that clockwork. Firstly, it is exquisitely made and secondly, it feels very comfortable to the touch.

"It's pretty good too."

Xingye Ai’s brows furrowed even more.

She is increasingly unable to get what her best friend likes.

"Rinne gave me a notepad, Miao gave me the ink that comes with the pen, and a novel, to be more specific, a collection of jokes." Having said this, Rina Toshima rubbed her lips. The bridge of his nose showed a bit of laughter and laughter in his voice, "Am I just such a workaholic in their eyes? And a workaholic under great pressure!"

She felt she shouldn't.

Especially since she became a teacher in Class A, she feels that her mental state is much better than before.

After all, the first, second and third grade students in my class are all there. "I think you can remove 'that's it'." Hoshino Ai corrected Toshimaru Rina's statement without giving any face, "Maybe you didn't realize it yourself, but when you entered the role of a teacher, you had His temperament has changed.

"To be more precise, sometimes I feel a little scared when I look at you like that, and all the bad memories in my memory come flooding back.

“And then about the gifts.

"I think you should be happy, right? If everyone can give you something that meets your needs, rather than a fake and exquisite gift that you don't need at all, what's the point?

"Is it possible that you still plan to collect it?"

If she has such a circle of friends who give her useful gifts on her birthday and celebrate her birthday for her, she will be happy for a long time.

People, the older you get, the fewer friends you have.

Anyway, she felt that this time her precious best friend was a little overwhelmed with blessings.

"It seems so."

Rina Toshima thought about it for a while, and the complicated emotions in her heart suddenly disappeared.

Ai is right, he should be happy.

"But then again, you have read out so many names, where is the most important one?"

Hoshino Ai winked, which was very suggestive.

Although she didn't say it explicitly, in terms of this argument, it was no different from saying it explicitly.

"He..." Speaking of this, Rina Toshima narrowed her eyes unconsciously and asked meaningfully, "Did he call you before?"

The tips she gave Ah Che were not expensive.

As a result, he gave herself a women's watch that she had wanted for a long time but had not bought because of its price.

Of course, it doesn’t matter how expensive that watch is, but it doesn’t matter how cheap it is.

The reason why she hesitated was because she felt that it was not worth spending one-third of her salary to buy a watch. It was better to buy some ingredients and satisfy her appetite at Beichuan's house.

In a sense, this is also a wonderful equation that belongs to her alone.

In other words, it is a wonderful equation for a foodie.

"...I said no, do you believe it?"

This time, it was Hoshino Ai's turn to be embarrassed.

She moved her gaze away, and her voice sounded a little unnatural.

"What do you think."

Rina Toshima looked at her best friend with a half-smile.

"I think..." Hoshino Ai was silent for a moment, "Well, he did call me and ask."

Now that we have talked about it to this extent, we can't solve the problem simply by talking like a duck.

"This weekend, the day after tomorrow, do you have time?" Rina Toshima changed the topic and did not care about it. Instead, she continued with a smile, "Anyway, as a good best friend, you have to give me some help this year. Can I make up for it?"

Grief requires relaxation.

This girl's state is obviously full of pressure.

If it's a day off, let yourself take her out for a walk.

"No problem, my eldest lady~"

Xingye Ai was stunned for a second, then smiled and nodded.

"Then, let's talk about it. It's time to stop complaining about the bitterness at work!"

Rina Tsubasa raised her eyebrows and looked like she was all ears.

"Do you really want to listen?"

Seeing his best friend like this, Hoshino Ai felt a little embarrassed.

"nonsense."

Rina Toshima rolled her eyes.

Otherwise, why is she talking so much.

"I'll tell you."

"speak!"

As a result, the two of them returned to their previous state, with one complaining and the other listening silently.
