Chapter 1089: I remember, I remember it all

Whether the gift was ugly or not, Shen Xing didn't know, but he had truly put in the effort, and it was indeed quite valuable.

The team base.

"It's this big?"

A group of people surrounded a massive, beautifully wrapped box, looking on with curiosity and surprise.

Jin Dao couldn't help but look at Shen Xing curiously and ask, "Xingxing, what did you pack in here? It wouldn't be a computer, would it?"

Before Shen Xing could speak, Mu Jin snatched the words away, denying it: "Impossible. No matter how much of a 'straight man' Shen Xing is, he wouldn't give Bai Bai a computer. Besides, our base has computers, and Bai Bai has her own too; she doesn't lack one at all."

"Then what's in here?" Jin Dao muttered.

Shen Xing sat in his chair, smiling as he saw this: "Don't guess anymore. You'll know once she gets here in a bit."

Seeing him smile so calmly, Yu Qian couldn't help but narrow her eyes meaningfully: "Xingxing, seeing you smile so happily, you must be very satisfied with the gift you're giving."

Shen Xing wasn't modest at all; he shrugged lightly: "Personally, I'm quite satisfied. Look, none of you can guess it, which means my gift is very original."

A gift that could be guessed instantly wouldn't be interesting at all.

Seeing him acting uncharacteristically cocky, Xu Qinmei became even more curious.

"You just put a box here; who could guess that? Give us a hint and see if any of us can figure it out."

The others nodded one after another, indicating they wanted a hint.

Shen Xing wasn't worried; he was certain no one could guess it.

"Think carefully about our gathering from the time before last. Think about what Bai Bai said that day; my gift is related to what she said."

Everyone: "…?"

Everyone looked at each other.

Jin Dao was the first to raise his hand in surrender: "Bai Bai came late that day. By the time she arrived, I was already drunk. I really don't remember what she said."

The girls also showed troubled expressions. Mu Jin curled her lips: "How are we supposed to guess that? Does anyone actually remember everything Bai Bai said that day?"

As Yu Qian listened to Mu Jin, she looked at Shen Xing, the corners of her mouth curling up slightly.

They might not remember, but clearly, someone did.

"Ahem." Yu Qian coughed twice and said pointedly: "Alright, let's stop guessing. It just makes it look like we don't care about Bai Bai. But Xingxing, you even remember exactly what Bai Bai said."

This almost blunt reminder made everyone suddenly realize the truth, and they all looked at Shen Xing with knowing expressions.

Shen Xing was startled and quickly sat up straight: "Don't talk nonsense, I…"

Before he could finish, Bai Lianghe happened to push the door open. Clearly having heard half of Shen Xing's sentence, she couldn't help but look at the group curiously and ask: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

As soon as Bai Lianghe appeared, everyone tacitly wiped the expressions off their faces, acting as if nothing had happened.

Shen Xing quickly stood up: "You're here."

Bai Lianghe scanned everyone's faces with curiosity, finally looking at Shen Xing: "Weren't you the one who messaged me to come over?"

"Right! It was Xingxing who asked you to come; it has nothing to do with us!" Yu Qian was the senior, after all, and reacted the fastest.

The others responded quickly, following Yu Qian out of the room in a flash. Jin Dao, who was at the back, thoughtfully closed the door.

Bai Lianghe blinked, looking at the tightly shut door with a confused expression.

What the heck?

Before Shen Xing could call them back, only he and Bai Lianghe were left in the room.

This was the first time he had ever given Bai Lianghe a gift, and a birthday gift at that.

Although he had acted very confident in front of the others, feeling that he had chosen this gift well,

at this very moment, he couldn't suppress his growing nervousness.

"What exactly is going on?" Bai Lianghe still didn't understand, until she saw a beautifully wrapped gift box on the table.

"What's that?" Bai Lianghe asked curiously, moving to go forward and take a look.

Shen Xing was startled and quickly reached out: "That's not it, this is the one…"

As he spoke, he pointed to the larger gift box on the floor, which was as big as a moving box.

Bai Lianghe was startled, looking at the large box and wondering if she had gone blind, as she hadn't noticed it just a moment ago.

"For you, a birthday gift." Shen Xing said, forcing himself to stay calm: "I don't know if you'll like it."

Hearing this, Bai Lianghe felt a warmth in her heart, though she subconsciously said: "Giving it so early? It's still more than a week away."

Shen Xing looked calm on the surface, but behind his back, he couldn't help but nervously rub his fingers. Still, he mustered the courage to say what was truly in his heart: "I gave it to you early on purpose. I wanted to be the first one to give you a gift."

After saying this, Shen Xing could no longer keep up the act and lowered his head, his face burning hot.

Bai Lianghe was also stunned, as if she hadn't expected Shen Xing to say such a thing to her.

Seeing him in this state after he finished speaking, she suddenly felt he was somewhat inexplicably cute.

"Thank you, you are the first." Bai Lianghe smiled, feeling moved by Shen Xing's brave expression.

Shen Xing looked up and smiled somewhat embarrassedly: "They were just guessing what I got, but none of them could guess it. Why don't you take a guess?"

Bai Lianghe raised an eyebrow and asked cooperatively: "Is it something I would want?"

"I think so, because you mentioned it." Shen Xing nodded.

Bai Lianghe was confused: "I mentioned it? When?"

"During our gathering the time before last. Although you didn't mention buying this specific thing, it was involved in what you said that day, so I thought it was something you would need."

"Ah?" Bai Lianghe, like the others, showed a troubled expression: "What I said that day? How am I supposed to remember that…"

When the words left her mouth, Bai Lianghe herself was stunned.

She stared blankly at Shen Xing: "You remember what I said?"

Shen Xing smiled faintly, no longer hiding it: "I remember, I remember it all."

Bai Lianghe's heart skipped a beat, and for a moment, it felt as if a warm current had washed over her.

The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous and strange. Bai Lianghe was caught off guard, and regaining her senses, she turned her head to look at the box, trying to cover up her feelings: "Then let me think about it carefully."

Shen Xing watched her, not in a hurry, just looking at her with a smile in his eyes.

After a while, Bai Lianghe suddenly looked up, turning to Shen Xing with shock in her eyes: "Could this be a set of ski gear?"

Shen Xing was startled, not expecting Bai Lianghe to actually guess it.

"You remembered?"

Bai Lianghe smiled and said: "You hinted that it was involved in what I said that day. I thought and thought, but I couldn't remember saying anything related to a gift."

"But I remember Mu Jin asking everyone what they were doing for winter break, and I said I wanted to learn how to ski!"

Shen Xing nodded: "Right, you said you wanted to learn to ski, so I bought this gift. It's not just a ski suit, it's a full set of ski equipment. I hope you like it." ===== CHAPTER 1090 =====
