At first, Yueming thought it was just a coincidence.

     

    And Gu Miaomiao and Shen Jingchuan would not do such a thing.

    It is strange to say that they are obviously a few years younger than him, but Yueming occasionally forgets this matter and unconsciously treats them as adults.

    …So why would someone give him flowers when he has nothing to do?

    Yue Ming was lying on the window, looking down at the flower that fell silently on his windowsill, and decided to regard it as a romantic supernatural event.

    "Xiao Ming, did the cram school's last English test result come out?"

    Two days before her birthday, Aunt Zhang asked about Yueming's study.

    "It's out." Yueming went to the schoolbag and found its paper, his eyes flashing with the light of Ai Ai, "I was doing the questions for the first year of junior high school, and the teacher said that it was better than most of the students in the first year of junior high school. even better…”

    "How many points?"

    "One hundred!"

    "Well, then we have to work hard, out of 120 right? Our foundation is not as good as others, we have to work harder..."

    "But..."

    "Also, I asked your teacher last time, and the teacher said that your speaking and listening are not good, and suggested that I change schools for you, Xiaoming, let's work hard and spend more time In terms of study, don't look at the young master Cen Sui next door playing every day, people can talk to foreigners without going to elementary school..."

    Aunt Zhang babbled, but did not notice the change in Yueming's expression.

    "And Miss Yoyo, although Miss Yoyo doesn't seem to be learning things very fast, but she speaks English like a little foreigner. Last time I saw her watching that foreign cartoon, No subtitles needed…”

    The light in Yueming's eyes completely dimmed.

    "Do you think I can do it as long as I work hard?" The beautiful little boy said blankly, "Yoyo's father can talk to her in home English since childhood, and Yoyo's mother will invite her to a foreign country. As a teacher, what do I have?"

    As soon as the voice fell, not only Aunt Zhang, but Yue Ming himself was stunned.

    He looked at his mother's hurt expression and couldn't believe that the words just came out of his mouth.

    …this was not his intention.

    He knew that his mother was very hard. Before she arrived at Gu's house, she needed to work two jobs by herself. After arriving at Gu's house, her family's situation improved a little, but the working hours were too long. She had to wait an hour or two at the intersection in the middle of the night to get a taxi.

    He knows that.

    But sometimes he would rather not know.

    If you don't know, you can justifiably blame her for not giving yourself better conditions when her mother blames him for not working hard.

    If you don't know, you can blame your parents when others are unfair to him.

    Instead of being able to endure the strictness of a mother and bear these pressures alone.

    “…Xiao Ming…”

    Yue Ming gritted his teeth and hurried out of the room.

    He knew that he was wrong, but he was really sad, even for a while, he didn't want to be an obedient and sensible child, pretended to comfort his mother well, and told She will work hard and he will do better next time.

    His footsteps stopped outside Yoyo's door.

    He hadn't seen much in the past few days. After dinner, she seemed to have some secrets. As soon as she put down her job, she secretly hid it in the house.

    The door was not closed tightly, and through the crack of the warm yellow light, Yueming vaguely saw someone else.

    There seems to be the voices of Gu Miaomiao and Shen Jingchuan.

    And Cen Sui's voice.

    Even the big monster named Yong Ze next door was there.

    Yoyo: "...sticky! I can! I'm so smart!"

    Gu Miaomiao: "put it down, I have to stick you again!"

    Yoyo: "...Brother, elder sister murdered me."

    Shen Jingchuan: "You should put it down, I may not be able to bear it if you make trouble again."

    Yoyo: "…"

    Yue Ming couldn't see what they were doing, just thought they were very happy.

    “… Yo Yo?”

    He gathered his courage and knocked on the door.

    "I, I can..."

    Soon after his voice sounded, Yueming found that the room suddenly became quiet.

    The hand he wanted to push the door froze in place.

    "Wait, wait a second—!"

    Yoyo hurried out of the house.

    The little girl in the bunny-print pajamas had her hair loose and soft like some kind of animal fluff.

    She was so anxious that she didn't even wear shoes, she ran out barefoot and closed the door by the way.

    "You, what are you doing?"

    Yoyo swallowed nervously.

    She won't lie, but now they are preparing the decoration for the birthday party, if Yueming sees it, it will not be a surprise.

    Yue Ming's intuition is very keen.

    He felt Yoyo didn't want him in.

    “…nothing important.”

    Yue Ming tried his best to make himself look less expectant, pretending to ask casually:

    "What are you guys playing? Can I… take a look?"

    Yoyo subconsciously opened her arms to protect the door behind her.

    "That...you...you can't go in..."

    The three-year-old girl didn't know how to use euphemisms yet. She looked anxious. She only knew that brother Yueming couldn't see the surprise they prepared, but ignored Yueming's mood.

    And on the surface, Yue Ming could not see the slightest difference.

    "I see." He sounded relaxed, and even smiled gently, "It's okay, I just asked casually, I haven't finished my homework yet, I'll go back and do my homework first. ."

    Yoyo stared blankly at the back of Yue Ming who turned around in a hurry, inexplicably, I felt that the heart that was excited and anticipating just now was suddenly not so happy.

     

    He flew back to his small room and slammed his head into the soft pillow.

    The pillow was immediately wet.

    …stupid!

    Mother had warned him before, why did he still have fantasies and unilaterally treat each other as his friend like an idiot?

    He clearly knew that no one would want to be friends with him, he was not lively and cheerful enough, not generous enough, just pick a person from Yoyo's side, he is more interesting than him, his family background is better, It's more suitable to be friends with Yoyo.

    Yue Ming, who was extremely sad, felt that he who tried so hard to be friends with Yoyo before was a fool without self-knowledge.

    …he won't do this kind of futile work again.

    Yue Mingxiang hiding in the bed and crying a lot, it doesn't matter if you don't have friends, you can have your own world, and you can become the person you want to be.

    There is nothing wrong with being alone.

    He doesn't want friends, and from now on, he won't.

    In the dark room, the sobbing little boy huddled into a ball, like a small animal curled up because of an injury.

    However, just when Yueming was tired from crying and was about to fall asleep, he was suddenly awakened by a slight movement.

      When he came, his first reaction was to roll over and sit up, pushed open the half of the small window, and then—

    Under the moonlight, the ignorant little lamb stood outside his window, like an elf running out of a fairy tale.

    It held a rose flower in its mouth, as if the flower was open in its mouth.

    Yue Ming, who cried and swollen eyes, stared at it blankly.

    —

    “…Did I make Brother Yueming angry?”

    Yoyo lying on the bed muttered.

    Everyone went back to their own homes, and Gu Miaomiao, who was the last to coax you to sleep, heard her recite "I seem to make brother Yueming sad" a hundred times before going to bed, and finally she was patient. Exhausted, clenched her teeth and tucked her quilt, saying:

    "That's right, you made him sad. Your brother Yueming is now in the bed. If you don't sleep, I will punch you."

    Yoyo: "…"

    The interesting Yoyo shrank under the covers and said obediently:

    "Good night sister."

    "Ann."

    Gu Miaomiao turned off the light with an expressionless face.

    The room fell silent.

    After Gu Miaomiao closed the door and left, she pretended to fall asleep and opened one eye quietly, and after confirming that her sister was really gone, she sighed softly and left in the bed Roll right and roll twice.

    …Why is he unhappy?

    Three-year-old Yoyo is full of question marks.

    However, her worries did not last long. The next morning, after watching Yueming get up early and go to the cram school as usual, Yoyo happily started to set up with her brother and sister.

    Colorful paper decorations to hang on the wall.

    Collaged birthday slogans on glass.

    There are also balloons that I bought. After a long time of blowing, I found a pump on the side under my sister's white eyes.

    After everything was ready, Yue Ming, who knew nothing, finally returned to Gu's house.

    Passing the door, he glanced at Mianmian grazing in the yard.

     

    If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have imagined that it was the one who sent flowers outside his window for several days.

    …silly.

    Yue Ming pursed his lips and walked faster into the house.

    He won't be fooled.

    He doesn't need friends, human friends, even monster friends, he can be alone, and he can be very happy...

    But the moment I pushed the door in—

    Boom!

    What greeted him was a confetti fireworks that exploded suddenly.

    "Happy birthday to brother Yueming!"

    Not just Yoyo, Gu Miaomiao and Shen Jinchuan, Cen Sui and Yong Ze, as well as his mother and Yu Lan, all gathered to watch him.

    Behind them, there were decorations made by them that they had seen in Yoyo's room.

    …So, is it because of this?

    Yue Ming froze in place.

    At this moment, everyone's eyes fell on him.

    As if he was no longer an unnoticed weed in the corner, finally there was light passing through the heavy haze, illuminating the corner.

    The little girl who hugged him had a sweet voice and said in his ear:

    "Sorry, let's make it up."

    Behind him, Mianmian blew softly.
