“Baobei, is this a gift from you?”
Qiu Wu and Jiang Baobei came back from the canteen and saw the gift suddenly appear on the desk. She subconsciously thought that it was a little surprise from Jiang Baobei.
Because it was her birthday, except for Jiang Baobei, probably only a few classmates, who came from the same junior high school as her, knew about it.
But ‘Qiu Wu’ did not have a deep relationship with those classmates, so it was unlikely that they would suddenly have the idea of giving her gifts.
“It’s not from me.”
Jiang Baobei also had a puzzled expression. She was sure that in the first twenty years of her life, she had never received a gift from anyone other than her family. This gift was something she did not have in her previous life.
“It’s better not to accept gifts from unknown sources.”
Jiang Baobei was wary of this gift because she suspected that the prank had started in advance because of her arrival and that this gift came from Lin Lei, a person with evil intentions.
“Oh.”
Ah Wu didn’t want to open the gift of unknown origin, so she put it aside and prepared to send it to the school’s lost and found office before school in the evening.
When the time came, the owner of the gift would naturally see the gift and take it back.
It was not that Ah Wu didn’t know how to appreciate kindness, but she only had one friend in school, Jiang Baobei. Accepting gifts from others for no reason could easily cause trouble. Ah Wu was not a woman who liked trouble.
“Qiu Wu, today is your birthday. Why didn’t you tell us? Who gave this a gift? Why didn’t you open it?”
Yu Lingli poked Qiu Wu’s back with the capped end of the fountain pen and looked at the exquisitely wrapped small gift in Qiu Wu’s hand with curiosity.
“I don’t know who gave it to me. I’m going to send it to the lost and found office later.”
Qiu Wu shook her head and put the gift in her school bag. She did not dare to put this gift on the desk anymore because it was too conspicuous and could easily attract curious looks from others.
“Why did you send it to the lost and found office? This must have been given by the boy who has a crush on you. Don’t you know that the boys in our class secretly voted you as a class flower?”
Yu Lingli’s talent for gossip was once again revealed. Qiu Wu herself didn’t know about this, but Yu Lingli already heard the news from the boys early on.
“Then, you can’t accept it. Otherwise, the person who gave the gift will think that Xiao Wu agreed with him.”
Jiang Baobei frowned and decided to supervise Qiu Wu to deliver the gifts to the lost and found office at night. In her opinion, early love in high school meant trouble.
“Qiu Wu.”
Yu Lingli was curious about what was in the box, but it was obvious that Qiu Wu was not willing to fulfill her small wish.
“I think Baobei is right.”
Ah Wu was not moved at all. She just smiled sweetly at Jiang Baobei. Jiang Baobei felt satisfied immediately.
***
The lost and found office of the school was located at the gate. The lost items that had been picked up by others were placed in the most conspicuous position so that teachers and students entering and exiting could see them at a glance so that they could collect their lost items in time.
When He Zhan saw the unopened gift box placed on the lost and found table, his whole heart froze.
“It’s all Jiang Baobei’s fault. If she hadn’t insisted that gifts of unknown origin could not be accepted, maybe I would know what was in it now!”
When Yu Lingli and Li Xi left school, they looked at the gift boxes and complained to each other.
For gossip lovers, the greatest pain was simply not being able to eat the melon, or eating half of the melon and the remaining half was taken away by someone else.
Obviously, the current situation was the latter. If they knew who the gift-giver was, they would have new gossip information.
The conversation between the two people fell into He Zhan’s ears, and his expression was a little uncertain at this time.
Jiang Baobei!
He remembered this vulgar name!
***
On Saturday, Jiang Baobei arrived at Feng’s house at the agreed time.
Qiu Wu gave her the address, but Jiang Baobei didn’t need it at all. Because she, who was reborn after forty years, had a much deeper understanding of Feng’s family than her current sixteen-year-old self.
Jiang Baobei lingered at the door for a long time because she didn’t know how to treat her young mother.
Calculating the time, she and her mother Qiu Xia had not seen each other for nearly eight years.
In fact, since she went to college, the time for the two of them to see each other had become very limited.
When she applied for a university far away from home, ‘Qiu Wu’ originally thought that she would be scolded by her mother or that she could see the reluctance in her mother’s expression.
But her mother Qiu Xia just quietly helped her pack her luggage, and even her stepfather Feng Chenghai did the work of sending her to the train station.
Before going to college, her mother gave her a card, which contained the tuition fees for the first academic year and the living expenses for the first semester, which her stepfather had promised to bear.
In fact, her mother already remarried for three years, but the relationship between ‘Qiu Wu’ and her stepfather and stepbrother was not good.
Especially when she saw her mother’s concern for her stepfather and her love for her stepbrother, it made her feel that her stepfather and stepbrother were intruders in the life in which she and her mother depended on each other.
