Huo Ran discovered that Kou Chen actually had little experience in giving gifts. In the past, he should just buy whatever he wanted, as long as he had money. Now he was a little worried if he wanted to buy something special for his father, so he and Kou Chen stood on the train.
I haven't found anything besides a kettle for ten minutes.
Kou Chen's greatest gift-giving achievement in his life was probably the pair of anklets.
"That's because of love," Kou Chen straddled the motorcycle, looked at the small tape measure on his feet, and happily sang at the top of his voice, "because of love..."
"Then let's have a kettle." Huo Ran sighed.
"A thermos cup is actually fine," Kou Chen said. "My dad is old enough to soak wolfberries in a thermos cup anyway."
"Okay," Huo Ran got on the back seat, hugged his waist, put his hand around the front and reached into his clothes to touch his belly, "Let's go, little abs."
The little abdominal muscle started the car, roughly pulled his hand out, and yelled: "Sit tight! Behave!"
Huo Ran immediately held his hands together.
"Be honest!" Little Ab turned his head and roared again before driving out.
For the sake of creativity, they gave up the big shopping mall and went to the pedestrian street next to it and entered a small alley.
There are many small shops here. Most of them sell creative gadgets that are meaningless, completely impractical and have no aesthetics. A small part of them sell creative gadgets that are meaningless, completely impractical but very beautiful. There is also a small part that they want.
Looking for something useful, not necessarily beautiful.
With this kind of tolerant attitude, finding gifts will be easy.
Kou Chen's local taste soon took full advantage and he found a small shop that printed photos on thermos cups.
Huo Ran really couldn't figure it out. Kou Chen's clothes were very good, and his aesthetics was very good when making a small measuring tape, but when it came time to choose such a small gift, he could pick out the most ugly things on the street.
I vowed to be the meanest kid on this street.
"It will be ready soon," an aunt said, "Have you brought any photos?"
The boss is this auntie, and she looks like she is here to visit the store temporarily, but she is very professional: "If you have a photo, it would be best if I scan it for you. The pixels are high enough. I have to take a look at your own electronic version first."
"
"The photos taken with the mobile phone, okay?" Kou Chen took out his mobile phone and started to look through it.
"Send it to my email," the aunt said, sitting in front of the computer, "I'll take a look."
"Do you still have photos of your dad in your phone?" Huo Ran was a little surprised. Most of the photos in his phone were scenery taken when he went out to play, or classmates, and even took test papers, but there were no parents. Suddenly
Some guilt.
"No," Kou Chen said, "Given my relationship with my father, how could I have his photos on my phone?"
"Then what photo did you use?" Huo Ran was stunned.
"Of course it's me and Shuaishuai," Kou Chen said, "His handsome son and his handsome son's handsome dog. It's so boring to give him a cup with his own picture printed on it. Isn't it enough to get up and look in the mirror every day? Have a drink
I still need to take a look at the water.”
"Yes." Huo Ran nodded, and the guilt he felt towards his parents quickly dissipated.
The process of printing cups was really fast. They stood at the door chatting for a long time before the aunt said it was done and let them take a look.
To be honest, the cup Kou Chen picked was very beautiful. It was milky white with a black lid. It was very good for just using it. After printing the photo... the photo was actually printed very large, and the milky white cup body was basically covered up.
, the photo was printed all over the cup in a circle.
Kou Chen hugged Shuai Shuai and smiled happily at the camera.
"Yes, it's quite clear." Kou Chen's offline aesthetics did not come online. He was very satisfied with the cup, "My dad will definitely like this. He can look at it when he misses me, and he can throw it when he is angry..."
"Send me this photo," Huo Ran whispered, "I don't have one."
"Do you want to make a desktop?" Kou Chen asked.
"Huh?" Huo Ran looked at him.
"If we don't make a tabletop, we won't give it to you." Kou Chen said.
"Your desktop is not me," Huo Ran said, "Why should I use you..."
Kou Chen didn't wait for him to finish speaking. He raised the phone in front of his eyes and shook it. Suddenly he saw his silly face on the table.
"Holy shit," Huo Ran was stunned, "When was it taken? Why does it look so stupid?"
"On the day of rowing, I felt very cute." Kou Chen said.
"...Send me the photo." Huo Ran said.
Kou Chen curled his lips, lowered his head and poked at his phone a few times.
Huo Ran's phone rang twice. When he opened it, he saw two photos sent by Kou Chen. He smiled and set the one of Kou Chen and Shuai Shuai as his desktop: "Why, buy one and get one free?"
Kou Chen didn't say anything, he just stretched out his phone in front of him and shook it.
The lock screen is also a photo of him.
"Fuck." Huo Ran laughed and felt like hugging Kou Chen and kissing him for a few times, "You..."
"Give me the money." The aunt who was waiting impatiently held out the payment code in front of Kou Chen and waved it. "After I give you the money, you two can chat here as long as you like."
"Sorry." Kou Chen quickly scanned the QR code and paid.
The aunt is not very patient, but the gift wrapping service is still very attentive. It is a high-end-looking black metal cylindrical box with a black rose on the outside.
"This is not bad," Kou Chen held it and kept looking at it. "Put the question in front of him first. When he gets angry, quickly take out this cup..."
Then he beat you.
Huo Ran touched Kou Chen's back: "Not bad."
"Go get the book and go home," Kou Chen said, "My dad is waiting for you at home today."
"What?" Huo Ran suddenly became nervous.
"He invited you," Kou Chen said. "He will definitely wait for you at home. He is very particular about this."
"Okay." Huo Ran nodded.
"I originally wanted to invite some of them to my house to play together today," Kou Chen said, "but Brother Chuan wanted to go shopping with his mother. Zhifan Baba said he would take his grandma to the hospital today, but Superman actually said that he was not free, you
Ask him whether this is a blatant provocation, who gave him the courage..."
"The girl gave it to me," Huo Ran looked ahead, "that girl who went to the amusement park last time, do you remember what she looked like?"
"I don't remember, why should I remember..." Before Kou Chen could finish his words, he suddenly bumped his shoulder and pointed in front of him.
At the corner of the alleyway back to the main road of the pedestrian street, there stood two sweet and ambiguous young people who seemed a bit interesting at first glance but who were definitely not lovers at first glance.
One was Wei Chaoren, and the other... Kou Chen suddenly remembered the appearance of the girl that day, the one standing in front of Wei Chaozhi now.
"This bastard," Kou Chen was a little surprised, "he deceived me a bunch of tips on chasing girls, and now he didn't report such important progress to me?"
"Experience?" Huo Ran quickly turned to look at him, "Where did you get your experience?"
"Is this the fucking point?" Kou Chen pointed at the two people in front of him, "Isn't the key point the two people in front of me? Especially that man!"
"If you have never chased a girl, your experience can't be called experience," Huo Ran said, "It can be called advice at most."
Kou Chen opened his mouth, but what he wanted to say was blocked. After two seconds, he took a breath: "He deceived me a bunch of advice on chasing girls... Is that okay?"
"Do you want to go over and say hello?" Huo Ran said, "It's not very good. He didn't say anything. Maybe he was afraid of losing face."
"I can't go," Kou Chen took out his phone, "but I want to secretly take pictures. When they get married, I will develop the photos and make a photo album for them to commemorate their first date. What do you think?"
"Very good." Huo Ran nodded.
The gift that Kou Chen said casually was much better than the thermos cup that he thought about for half an hour and couldn't put it down.
Wei Chaoren and the girl chatted and laughed for a few words at the intersection, and then the two of them walked toward the small square in the center of Buxin Street. Wei Chaoren pointed to the right.
"There is a small shop over there, and the double skin milk tastes super good," Huo Ran said, "They must be going there to sit there for a while."
"You know it very well? Have you ever been here with someone?" Kou Chen took the opportunity to get jealous while filming secretly.
"I grew up here for eighteen years," Huo Ran said. "It's not surprising to know this, right? You know so many delicious places even though you came here halfway."
"You win." Kou Chen clicked the shutter.
"How do you say I win," Huo Ran said, "It's me..."
"Why do I feel like something is wrong?" Kou Chen looked down at his phone, then looked up and forward, then lowered his head again, "Look at this photo."
"I don't want to watch it!" Huo Ran suddenly flashed at least ten ghost stories related to the photos in his mind, and he quickly took two steps back.
"These people were across the street when we came out." Kou Chen completely ignored his reaction, but immediately held the phone in front of his eyes, "We have walked most of the street, and you are still following them?"
When Huo Ran heard this, he immediately felt that something was wrong, and immediately went over to take a look.
The photo was taken of Wei Chaoren and the girl turning into the side of the alley, followed by three young men, all quite thin, with their hands in their pockets, and their walking posture was like announcing to the world that yes, we are that kind of person.
Someone who will slap you with just one look.
"Are I going in too?" Huo Ran raised his head and looked at the entrance of the alley. There was no one there anymore.
"Let's go in," Kou Chen walked quickly towards the entrance of the alley, "go and have a look, maybe we are going the same way."
