Chapter 294: 290th Day as Boss (Birthday)
Chapter 294: 290th Day as Boss (Birthday)
It was already eleven o'clock in the evening when I got home. After washing, removing all my makeup and cleaning up, it was almost twelve o'clock.
But Xu Yisong can't sleep yet, she still needs to check the performance schedule for tomorrow.
Although rehearsals have been conducted in advance, Xu Yisong is accustomed to verifying multiple times before the performance, whether it is a normal small performance or a large concert like tomorrow's, to avoid any unexpected situations.
Xu Yisong was completely immersed in his work and did not notice that time had unknowingly reached midnight.
"Is the work almost done?"
"Almost, it's almost done." Xu Yisong answered without raising his head when he heard it was Quan Zhilong's voice.
After receiving the reply, everything became quiet.
Xu Yisong thought Quan Zhilong had gone out and didn't care and continued looking at the documents.
By the time she finished reading the document, more than ten minutes had passed since midnight.
She rubbed her sleepy eyes and turned around to find that Quan Zhilong had not gone out, but had been sitting on the sofa not far behind her waiting for her.
Quan Zhilong sat cross-legged on the sofa, one hand propped up on his knees and looked at her sideways, "Are you done?"
"Well, why don't you go to bed?" Xu Yisong didn't pay attention to anything else. She was a little sleepy now and just wanted to pack up the documents in her hands and go to bed.
Quan Zhilong stood up to help her organize the documents, and then pushed Xu Yisong back to sit on the chair. He put his hands on the armrests of the chair, circled Xu Yisong, and said helplessly: "Did you forget something?"
"Ah? No." Xu Yisong answered uncertainly, and subconsciously looked at the organized documents, "There shouldn't be any omissions, right?"
"You were so busy that you forgot..." Hearing this answer, Quan Zhilong sighed, held Xu Yisong's face with his hands and said seriously: "It's past midnight now. Happy birthday, baby."
After hearing what Quan Zhilong said, Xu Yisong realized that it was already the 25th, which was her birthday.
While Xu Yisong was still in a daze, Quan Zhilong kissed Xu Yisong on the lips, then got up to turn off the lights, and came back with a delicate little cake with candles on it.
He held up the cake and sang the birthday song softly. When the song was over, he said to Xu Yisong, "In the new year, make a wish."
Xu Yisong cooperated, closed his eyes and made a wish.
The wish cannot be spoken out loud, otherwise it will not come true.
But this wish is about him, about both of them.
Xu Yisong opened his eyes and blew out the candle. The candlelight before it went out was reflected in his clear pupils, and the light flickering there was called happiness.
"Thank you, Oppa." She was busy herself, but someone would always remember her birthday first.
The lights in the room were turned off and the candles were extinguished, only the desk lamp next to the table was still on.
Because it was too late, Xu Yisong only took a symbolic bite of the cake and put the rest in the refrigerator.
Compared to last year’s birthday, this year’s birthday has fewer surprises and more plainness and warmth.
Quan Zhilong took out the birthday gift he had prepared long ago, which was a customized in-ear monitor.
"So beautiful!" Xu Yisong was amazed the moment he opened the box.
The outer shell of the ear monitor is translucent, a bit like a diamond, and can reflect different colors at different angles.
Xu Yisong was very familiar with the pattern engraved on the shell. It was a graffiti in GD's unique style, very similar to the painting they drew on their arms that day.
A few simple flowers surround a little rabbit.
It’s also in the style of simple graffiti, but this little rabbit looks much more like a rabbit than Xu Yisong’s rabbit-headed stickman.
There is no pattern on the right earphone, only a string of English words.
Xu Yisong took a closer look and laughed: "You engraved your name on the earphone you gave me?"
"Not only me, but you too." Quan Zhilong pointed to the string of names on the earphone.
That string of English words was actually Kwon Ji-Dragon's signature, but this signature was a little more special. There was a cool heart at the end of G-Dragon's name, and the other end of the heart was connected to another name - Bunny.
This pair of in-ear monitors is really beautiful. Xu Yisong likes it very much. He couldn't wait to put them on and try them out as soon as he received them. "It's just right that I can use them tomorrow."
Quan Zhilong sat beside her and looked at her. When he thought of tomorrow, he couldn't help but sigh: "You always said I was busy before, but you are working even on your birthday."
This was the second birthday he had spent with Xu Yisong, but it seemed that there were regrets in both birthdays.
Last year, he was busy with work and couldn't spend her birthday with her. This year, the birthday girl was busy with work and almost forgot her birthday.
Xu Yisong took off the in-ear monitor and carefully put it back into the box.
She couldn't do anything about her birthday since it was always at the end of the year and on a special day like Christmas.
But when she thought about it carefully, it seemed that she had really gone away from her original lazy life.
This year, FYH expanded and her workload increased dramatically. Many times, she couldn't slack off even if she wanted to.
In the past, I could say: Everything will be fine after I’m busy for this period of time.
But now Xu Yisong didn't dare to say this at all, because after this busy period, there might be more work waiting for her.
Of course, Kwon Ji-yong has no right to say anything about her, because he is not much better than Heo Yisong after his return this year.
It seems that both of them are in the rising stage of their careers.
This is a good thing.
But at the same time, the large amount of work and the increasingly fast-paced life bring not only achievements but also physical and mental pressure.
"Oppa, let's go traveling when we have free time." Life is not just about work, there has to be living as well.
Quan Zhilong felt that this "wait for a while" was just an empty promise at the moment, but he still asked: "Have you decided where you want to travel?"
Xu Yisong leaned towards Quan Zhilong and started to think seriously.
She is a person who likes to enjoy life, and travel is naturally an important and indispensable option. At least before receiving the task, Xu Yisong would prepare for a long-distance trip every six months.
But since she came to South Korea, traveling has completely faded out of her life. She only goes out to play for one or two days at most, and most of the time she even mixes it with work.
"There are so many places I want to go." There are many good places for travel. Xu Yisong made travel plans when he was in college, and there are many places he has not been to yet.
Just the plan of traveling around China is still two-thirds unfinished.
But when asked to think about where to go, Xu Yisong had no specific destination in mind.
She squeezed Quan Zhilong's hand, sliding her fingers over the tattoo, "Is there any place you want to go, Oppa?"
"Where do you want to go..." This question actually came to Quan Zhilong.
