Chapter 65: Wishes

"Happy birthday!"

As everyone finished singing the birthday song together, in the dark room with the lights turned off, a crowd of applause broke out at the dining table surrounded only by candle light, sending 22nd birthday wishes to Ji Lin.

22 years old.

At this age, I have just celebrated my first birthday that is truly blessed by others, which is probably a sad thing.

Even in many poor families, even if parents cannot afford cakes, they still celebrate their children's birthdays on time every year.

At this point, children with parents and children without parents are indeed very different.

Lin Xian applauded while looking at Ji Lin, who was smiling slightly embarrassed.

It can be seen that Ji Lin is still a little shy at this time.

But happy all the same.

"Jilin, come and blow out the candles and make a wish! Make a wish first and then blow out the candles!"

Chu Anqing and several female classmates were very happy today and urged Ji Lin to make wishes on the cake.

Ji Lin obviously has little experience in this area and is a bit unfamiliar.

He thought for a long time, then looked at the cake with candlelight in front of him and said softly:

"Actually, I have never had any aspirations. Except for not having parents, my life has been quite happy in other aspects since I was a child. It is not an exaggeration to say that I have everything I need in terms of material things."

"Ji Lin...you can't express your wishes." Chu Anqing reminded in a low voice:

"It won't work if you say it."

However……

Lin Xian stretched out his palm to interrupt Chu Anqing:

"Just let him talk, he seems to want to say it more."

All the time.

Ji Lin gives the impression that he is not good at words and even doesn't want to communicate.

Cold, taciturn, withdrawn.

But after this period of getting along, Lin Xian felt that this was not the case.

There are no people in this world who really want to be lonely.

Being solitary is often passive and is often a form of self-protection out of necessity.

It's like this childish birthday party.

For 19-year-old Chu Anqing, it was normal.

It is also normal in a 9-year-old child.

But when it comes to the 22-year-old Ji Lin, who is a global best-seller, a famous Oscar screenwriter, and a master of reasoning...

Not normal at all.

There is probably no other adult in the world who celebrates such a childish birthday at the age of 22 and is coaxed like a child.

But Ji Lin didn't feel any discomfort at all.

He is very happy.

Enjoyed this time too.

This is what he lacks most and what he most hopes to have in his more than 20 years of life where he has everything he needs, responds to every request, and lives a prosperous life.

Unfortunately……

This birthday song is still sung too late.

I wanted to buy sweet-scented osmanthus and drink it with me, but in the end it was different. I was a young man traveling.

so.

Today, Ji Lin, if he has something to say that he has accumulated for more than 20 years, let him say it.

Ji Lin looked at everyone and smiled, then continued:

"I haven't had anyone to accompany me since I was a child. The things I do most every day are reading books and doing math problems. Maybe it's because my parents are both mathematicians... I'm very talented at solving problems and I've never missed a question. It’s true, I didn’t miss a single question.”

"I enjoy this kind of problem-solving process, and I also enjoy the sense of accomplishment of getting every problem and every Sudoku right. I feel that doing the right thing is the right thing to do, and it is what I live in this world. Meaning, I don’t want to get any questions wrong or get the wrong answer.”

"But today, if I really have any wish..."

Ji Lin turned his head and glanced at Lin Xian, then at Chu Anqing, then lowered his head and looked at the birthday cake with half-burned candles, his expression became rich:

"I just hope that one of my questions is true

Did something wrong. 】』

…

After Ji Lin finished speaking, the entire gorgeously decorated living room fell silent.

Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and looked at each other, but they didn't understand what Ji Lin meant by this wish.

There is a big potential for a cold start.

At this time.

Gao Yang is like a genetic awakening! He stood up with a loud sound and received thunderous applause:

"Okay! Well said!"

Gold Medal Sales lived up to its reputation and immediately took over the scene:

"I think Ji Lin is right."

Gao Yang glanced at the confused people around him and explained with seriousness:

"Ji Lin's wish is really special, mainly because his life has been so outstanding. Whether it is his writing career or his screenwriting career, he has gained both fame and fortune at a young age and has never encountered any setbacks or difficulties."

"So, for us ordinary people, setbacks and failures that we can avoid, but for Ji Lin, it is a precious experience that we have never experienced! As Ji Lin said, life without failure is incomplete. A person who always does What’s the meaning of an antithetical life? It’s an incomplete life, a meaningless life!”

The more Gao Yang talked, the more excited he became, and he wrote passionately. He stood up and waved his hand:

"As the famous 18th-century British writer Oliver Goldsmith famously said -"

"Our greatest honor is not to remain standing! It is to have the courage to still get up after falling countless times!"

…

…

At this moment, the whole audience was shocked!

Chu Anqing and the female college students were stunned for a moment. They didn't expect that Gao Yang, who looked greasy and ordinary... not only perfectly resolved the awkwardness of the scene, but also directly sublimated Ji Lin's wish!

It's art!

Even Lin Xian looked at the excited Gao Yang and was stunned for a moment by the yelling.

Damn it?

Is the drug power of these female college students so strong?

Why is this guy's literary attainments suddenly so high? Is this another awakening and evolution? Quotes from 18th century writers were even pulled out!

but……

One thing to say.

Gao Yang is indeed talented in the "atmosphere group".

Since childhood, this is not the first time that Lin Xian has seen Gao Yang control the field to save the game.

He can always detect changes in the atmosphere or embarrassing situations, and then immediately jump out to attract attention and turn the tide.

No wonder it’s the gold medal sales in the 4S store.

If Zhao Yingjun can be regarded as the innate holy body of racing, then Gao Yang can definitely be said to be the innate holy body of sales. He is born to do sales.

Snap, snap, snap, snap, snap, snap! ! ! !

Warm applause rang out again!

look

It seemed that everyone applauded Ji Lin's profound wish, but in fact, they gave it to Gao Yang, the master of rescue.

"I see, it turns out that Ji Lin, your wish is to experience failure!"

Chu Anqing applauded and looked at Ji Lin:

"What a strange wish... But this is probably the difference between geniuses like you and ordinary people like us? Failure is often an uncomfortable and sad thing for us, but for you, it may be more precious experience and creative materials.”

The other female college students looked at Gao Yang, with stars twinkling in their eyes:

"Senior Gao Yang, you are really amazing and knowledgeable."

"Yes, yes, that passage just now sounds really beautiful. Can you tell me which book it is from?"

"Senior, do you also like to read books? Where did you learn all this knowledge?"

"Wow... As expected, the world of adults is so complicated. It takes senior Gao Yang to understand Ji Lin's thoughts."

These unexperienced female college students were teased to death by Gao Yang just now, and now they are "forcibly

After explaining, these female college students were even more impressed by him.

"Hahaha, actually I'm just doing my best..."

Gao Yang is a very honest person.

He scratched the back of his head and laughed, opened his Moments on his phone, and put it on the table for everyone to see:

"I learned all these things from this psychiatrist's WeChat Moments. You see, this Dr. Liu is the most famous psychiatrist in Donghai City. This is the Moments she just posted today, and it contains quotes. The words of this British writer.

"When I have nothing to do, I usually like to read the articles shared by this psychiatrist and learn some psychological knowledge. Don't tell me, in fact, learning this psychological knowledge is still very useful-"

As he spoke, Gao Yang put his arm around Lin Xian's shoulders and patted him:

"Before, Lin Xian kept having messy dreams and was worried every day. Then I took him to see this psychiatrist."

"As soon as an expert makes a move, he will know if something is wrong! After Dr. Liu made the diagnosis, he solved Lin Xian's problem in just a few words! Don't you think so, Lin Xian? This Dr. Liu is really very good!"

"Don't talk nonsense." Lin Xian kicked Gao Yang under the table to tell him to shut up.

However……

Opposite the birthday cake with the candles still out.

Ji Lin remained silent and stared at Lin Xian...

"Lin Xian."

He opened his eyes, and it was the first time Lin Xian saw Ji Lin's complete pupils.

We've known each other for so long.

He had never seen the lazy Ji Lin's eyes open so wide.

The other party seemed to be holding a cheetah by the throat, looking at Lin Xian with sharp and deep eyes:

"Have you... seen a psychiatrist?"
