Ke Wenbin quickly got the data he wanted and returned.
When Jin Sichen came to reunite with everyone after get off work, he saw that Li Chunhua was not in a good state, and asked her what had happened in a few words.
"Actually, you're not wrong. Rings have special meanings and are not something that just anyone can give as a gift," Jin Sichen soothed.
If he were here today, he would have brought this up as well. Li Chunhua wasn't actually wrong, it's just that his attitude was sometimes a bit off-kilter.
"Is that so?" Li Chunhua regained his energy. With Dr. Jin's support, he looked at Song Ren with his chin raised proudly.
Seeing him getting carried away again, Jin Sichen quickly changed the subject, "By the way, Lin Fan's birthday is in winter, right? Haven't you seen her profile? How can you guess based on her birthday gift?"
Everyone in 623 has seen Lin Fan's information, but the level of detail obtained by different people is different.
"Oh, I forgot about that." Li Chunhua slapped her head. "When I saw he wanted to make a ring, I immediately thought of it as a gift. And gifts, aren't they usually birthday gifts?"
Jin Sichen glanced at him with a half-smile, not knowing what to say.
"By the way, what gift would be good for Lin Fan's birthday?" Li Chunhua started the car and drove towards the dormitory.
Lin Fan couldn't help but stare at him for a few seconds.
"Her birthday is still half a year away. Is it necessary for you to ask now?" Song Ren said unbearably.
"Wouldn't it be better to ask earlier so that we can prepare earlier?" Li Chunhua was not convinced.
Jin Sichen sighed: "How can you ask a girl directly if you want to give her a gift?"
"Isn't it?" Li Chunhua was puzzled. "When I give my wife a gift, I always ask her directly what she wants."
"You're married?!" Jin Sichen exclaimed, and Lin Fan was also surprised. They didn't know the personal details of the 623 members.
"Yes, I've been married for more than half a year." Li Chunhua smiled. "Are you surprised?"
It was quite unexpected. They were in 623 and saw him being heartless every day, so they never thought about this aspect.
"How old are you this year?" Lin Fan asked.
"27."
That's not surprising. Lin Fan and Jin Sichen looked at Song Ren in tacit understanding.
Even the lively little Leo is married, so Captain Song, who is older than him, should have been married a long time ago, right?
Song Ren could feel their gazes without turning around, and directly denied it: "I didn't."
"Actually, most of the people in our group aren't married, except for Team Leader Yu and Doctor Xiao. They're all still single," Li Chunhua lamented. "I don't know what's going on, but people aren't willing to get married anymore."
The other three couldn't respond, so Jin Sichen quickly changed the subject. "What gift would Lin Fan like for his birthday?"
Lin Fan hadn't considered that she had forgotten what it felt like to celebrate her birthday. She shrugged, indicating she didn't know.
"What gifts did you receive on your birthday before?" Li Chunhua's attention was indeed drawn to it, and she was no longer obsessed with the topic of marriage.
"Hmm... does cake count?" Lin Fan said after thinking for a while.
"Birthday cake?" Li Chunhua curled her lips. "Shouldn't that be expected? It's not really a gift, is it? We're talking about flowers, gifts, that kind, right, Doctor Jin?"
Doctor Jin had never discussed this with Lin Fan before, so this was a good opportunity to find out more. He agreed, "Yes."
After hearing this, Lin Fan really thought about it carefully, and he thought about it for a long time.
The other three were puzzled. Is it really that hard to imagine?
"When I was 20, my family celebrated for me and invited many people to a party. I received quite a few gifts at that time. But I forgot what exactly I received." Lin Fan frowned. It was difficult for her to remember things from such a long time ago.
"20 years old?" Li Chunhua couldn't help but yell, "If I remember correctly, you are 35 this year, right?"
Lin Fan nodded.
"The last time you received a gift was when you were 20 years old. Have you never received a birthday gift in between?" Jin Sichen also found it incredible.
"No, at least not that I remember." Lin Fan thought about it and realized that he rarely received gifts. "That year, because I was going to college on my birthday, my family specifically mentioned celebrating my birthday after the college entrance exam."
"From then on, I celebrated my birthday at school." Song Ren continued.
"Don't your classmates have gifts either?" Li Chunhua was puzzled. When they were in school, roommates would give each other gifts. "Are you not on good terms?"
"Not really. It was just an ordinary roommate relationship, not bad or good. Maybe it was because they all had boyfriends at that time and were busy dating, so they didn't pay attention to me."
Of course, the most important thing in college is your boyfriend. Lin Fan couldn't help but laugh again as he thought of those youthful days.
"Was that time very happy?" Jin Sichen noticed and asked.
"Well, at least I don't have any worries. As long as I study hard, I can get good grades." Lin Fan did not deny it.
This kind of simple happiness is no longer easy to obtain after entering society.
"After graduation, I went to work in Gaohe and didn't have the opportunity to receive any gifts," Lin Fan continued.
"I remember that most companies in Gaohe have good benefits, right?" Li Chunhua asked. "At least they give out cakes or something on employees' birthdays."
Lin Fan smiled and shook his head.
"Isn't it?" Li Chunhua parked the car and arrived at the dormitory. "Is your boss so stingy?"
"Although he is stingy, he still sends cakes on birthdays. But have you forgotten my birthday? I won't receive any cake at all." Lin Fan got off the car. She felt depressed every time she thought about this.
"Huh? Oh!" Li Chunhua suddenly remembered that Lin Fan's birthday was New Year's Day, a statutory holiday, and Gao He's company would be closed. "No cake on a holiday, then you're pretty unlucky."
"So your boyfriend never gave you a birthday present after that?" Jin Sichen followed Lin Fan into the path.
"Boyfriend?!" Li Chunhua behind jumped up again.
The three of them turned around and looked at the startled Leo calmly.
Jin Sichen sighed and said, "Why? You're 27 and already married, but Lin Fan's 35 and still not allowed to have a boyfriend?"
Song Ren didn't know this information, but he wouldn't be like Li Chunhua, who thought that not getting married meant she had never had a boyfriend. After all, he himself was a typical example of someone who had a girlfriend before getting married.
"Oh, no, I'm just a little surprised," Li Chunhua explained with a hint of embarrassment. "Isn't it because we all know so little about each other? I was surprised when I first heard it, haha."
That’s true.
After so much time, these people still stay together every day, but they never talk about their own affairs and just look close.
"Well... strictly speaking, he did send it to me." Lin Fan was a little unsure. She opened the dormitory door and sat on the chair.
"Why do you seem so reluctant?" Jin Sichen knew something was amiss and sat down next to Lin Fan. "Tell me, what did he give you as a gift? Strictly speaking, it's considered a gift."
"That was my first year with him. He brought back a green potted plant that day and said it was a gift for me." Lin Fan recalled slowly.
Although it was not the same as her imagination of receiving flowers, the flowerpot was still a flower, so she happily accepted it. She watered it carefully every day, waiting for beautiful flowers to bloom.
But after more than a month, there was no news, so she asked her boyfriend to go to the store and ask what was going on.
"Guess what happened?" Lin Fan said as he laughed.
Jin Sichen and the others didn't find it funny, but he knew he should talk now: "What's going on?"
"He told me that the flowers weren't bought from a florist." Lin Fan's smile held an indescribable meaning. "He saw someone drop a flowerpot on the side of the road and thought it looked pretty, so he picked it up."
"Where are the flowers?" Li Chunhua widened her eyes.
"I dug it from the green belt downstairs." Lin Fan chuckled. "No wonder it looked familiar. It turned out to be a plant from the green belt. It's not a flowering plant. No matter how much I water it, it won't bloom."
"How can this be?" Li Chunhua leaned back in her chair, a look of disbelief on her face. "I picked up a flower pot on the roadside, dug up a plant from the green belt, and it didn't cost me a penny, and that's considered a birthday present for you?"
"No." Lin Fan's smile faded and he shook his head gently.
"What's not?" Jin Sichen couldn't guess what would happen next.
"He didn't know it was my birthday. He just happened to pick up a beautiful flowerpot. When I asked him, he remembered it was my birthday and said it was a coincidence."
…
For a moment, no one knew what to say.
How did a man like this find a girlfriend?
Well, what do you think of a boyfriend like this? Give Lin Fanfan some votes to comfort her.
