Don't get married if you're reborn.

Chapter 357 Seven Gifts
Zeng Wenjie laid out the seven gift boxes one by one.

礼盒上依次写有数字，分别是13、14、15、16、17、18、19。

Mu Qingyang asked in confusion, "What do these numbers mean?"

Zeng Wenjie said, "I guess you stopped celebrating your birthday around the age of 13, so you might as well make up for it all today."

Mu Qingyang's eyes lit up. She hadn't told Zeng Wenjie about this, but he had guessed it.

This surprised and delighted her!
Of course, it would be even more of a surprise if you could open seven birthday gift boxes at once.

"Then I'll tear it down?!" Mu Qingyang turned to Zeng Wenjie and asked.

"Take it apart!" Zeng Wenjie said lazily as he lay down on her bed.

The first gift box contained a pink cartoon backpack, which looked quite exquisite.

"You're starting junior high this year, so may this backpack accompany you for the next three years! Happy thirteenth birthday."

There was a sticky note on the backpack, written by Zeng Wenjie.

Mu Qingyang was charmed by the cartoon backpack and said, "It's so cute. If I carried this backpack to school in junior high, I would definitely be the prettiest girl in the class."

After saying that, she put her schoolbag on the bed and then went to open the second gift box.

The second gift box contained a copy of Nicholas Tse's album "The Invisible Him," complete with his autograph.

"A record that traveled from August of this year, complete with a personal autograph. Happy 14th birthday!"

Mu Qingyang thought the fourteenth birthday gift was very creative and happily accepted it.

She couldn't help but laugh and said, "What will the third gift box be? Let me guess."

Zeng Wenjie said, "If you can guess, I'll lie on the ground and bark like a dog."

Mu Qingyang thought about it and found it a bit hard to guess.

Upon opening it, she was stunned. What the heck was "The Complete Collection of Middle School Entrance Examination Papers"?!
Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but laugh out loud. This gift was clearly beyond Mu Qingyang's expectations, leaving her stunned on the spot.

Good-good-study, Day-day-up! Happy 15th birthday!

Okay, a fifteen-year-old in the third year of junior high school, giving such a gift seems reasonable?
Mu Qingyang couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. This gift was indeed a bit unexpected, and it felt like she was being pranked, but it was also very strange and fun!
After placing the complete set of exam papers on the bed, Mu Qingyang began to open the fourth gift box.

Inside was a Pokémon handheld game console, along with several game cartridges.

"Let this keep you company during your boring summer vacation; you're a happy little elf too. Happy sixteenth birthday!"

Mu Qingyang nodded with great satisfaction and said, "This is a good thing. I can play with it often."

Then, she couldn't wait to open a gift box.

"You must have been quite vain at seventeen, right? Remember to use these hair clips every day. Happy seventeenth birthday!"

This gift box contains a set of hair clips, in various styles, which are very appealing to girls.

As she unpacked her eighteenth birthday gift box, she asked, "It's not 'College Entrance Examination Questions,' is it?"

Zeng Wenjie quipped, "That's possible!"

Mu Qingyang pursed her lips and opened it, letting out a sigh of relief. Thankfully, it wasn't an exam paper.

"Cherish your last days of high school! Remember to ask every classmate to write in your yearbook! Happy 18th birthday!"

Mu Qingyang thought about it and realized that he had never bought a yearbook, and he rarely even wrote in it.

Mu Qingyang looked at the last gift box and continued to open it. It contained a pair of toys, cartoon boys and girls dressed in military training uniforms, with their hands clasped together.

"Now that you've finished telling your story, let's tell our story from now on!"

Mu Qingyang smiled and asked, "Why aren't there any birthday wishes?" Zeng Wenjie replied, "Because I'll personally tell you—Happy 19th Birthday!"

Upon hearing these words, Mu Qingyang's heart began to race, and he felt so happy that he almost fainted.

"You tricked me into crying, you hateful person!"

Mu Qingyang lowered his head and muttered something, and before he knew it, tears were welling up in his eyes and streaming down his face.

Zeng Wenjie leaned back lazily, his legs crossed, and said, "Well, there's nothing I can do about it. Even a warm-hearted guy has to call me a warm-hearted guy."

Mu Qingyang said, "Why don't you coax me?"

Zeng Wenjie then said, "Don't cry, don't cry, I'll make you some milk!"

Mu Qingyang couldn't help but laugh out loud and said, "Thank you for planning my nineteenth birthday and for preparing such a thoughtful gift!"

"Didn't I tell you to say thank you?"

Zeng Wenjie said with a displeased look, then moved a little further in and patted the empty space next to him.

Mu Qingyang kicked off his woolen slippers and climbed up, sitting down next to him and half-leaning into his arms.

Zeng Wenjie reached out and hugged her, gently stroking her smooth cheek, and said, "Although I can't make up for the regrets of your previous birthdays, at least I can make you feel less regretful when you think back on them!"

Mu Qingyang nodded and smiled, "You haven't had your birthday yet. I'm nineteen now, so call me 'older sister'!"

"You've turned against the Heavenly Gang!" Zeng Wenjie roared, reaching out to grab her by the throat.

Mu Qingyang buried her head directly into his chest, like a drill.

After some laughter and banter, Zeng Wenjie said, "Why don't you tell me some stories from your junior and senior high school years?"

Mu Qingyang thought for a moment and said, "It seems like there's nothing to say. Why don't you tell me something interesting? I think the bad things you've done are more interesting."

During her six years of junior high and high school, she was in a relatively severe state of autism and depression. It's a miracle that she didn't develop any serious problems.

Given his mental state, he probably wouldn't be able to play with boys and girls his own age.

"The only thing worth mentioning is that I got into a fight once and was forced to call my parents... Then, I called Grandpa Xie, and Grandpa Xie beat up the other person's parents too." Mu Qingyang covered his mouth and laughed.

Upon hearing this, Zeng Wenjie's mouth dropped open, and he exclaimed, "Ninth Master is amazing! Ninth Master is perfectly fine!"

Mu Qingyang said, "In my first year of high school, a girl deliberately poked the nib of my fountain pen and broke it. I couldn't help it and threw it at her. Then, she went to find a very tall and strong boy."

Zeng Wenjie said thoughtfully, "You can even throw a very tall and strong guy?"

"I knew I couldn't throw him, so I kicked him in the groin and then knocked him down with my shoulder," Mu Qingyang demonstrated the move.

Zeng Wenjie's lips twitched as he recalled the "Iron Mountain Lean" he had taken from her. Luckily, he hadn't been kicked in the groin, otherwise his life after his rebirth would have been completely ruined!

"My feet are a little cold, take off your socks and let them soak for me," Zeng Wenjie said.

Mu Qingyang obediently took off her clean white socks, tucked her tender little feet into the quilt, and intertwined them with his feet.

“Alright, let’s talk this over.” Zeng Wenjie said with satisfaction.

The two chatted until late at night. When sleepiness finally came over him, Zeng Wenjie cursed inwardly at Ninth Master, who had just praised his scoundrels, before returning to his room to rest.

Mu Qingyang took out his phone, opened QQ, and sent a message to "Hua Manlou": "I had a very happy birthday today. I haven't been this happy in a long time! From now on, I will celebrate my birthday properly every year."

After sending the message, she closed her eyes and fell asleep peacefully.

But this time, after falling asleep, my body didn't subconsciously wrap itself tightly in the blankets and curl up into a tight ball.
