Xia Qianchen thought that the first time she saw a piano when she was a child was in Xia Qianzao's room. She couldn't help but sneak a peek and was beaten badly by Xia Qianzao.
Xia Qianzao has been known to be unruly and fierce since childhood, but fortunately Qianyu will always protect her.
Suddenly a light came on in the dark dormitory, and Xia Qianchen lit a candle with a lighter.
In the warm and dancing firelight, Xia Qianchen held a cake only as big as a palm: "Ellen, happy birthday."
Ellen's body froze instantly.
"I overheard your conversation with the warden yesterday. She said that today is your birthday and you can ask your relatives to visit the prison..." Xia Qianchen whispered, "You refused."
Yesterday, Xia Qianye came to visit the prison, and Ellen looked wrong.
Later, she kept paying attention to Ellen and found that she was more depressed and indifferent than usual...
Ellen lowered her eyes: "Where did the lighters and candles come from?"
"I asked the warden to be accommodating... This cake was also made yesterday and was secretly brought here." Xia Qianchen said with a smile, "It's a pity that it was made very small for the convenience of sneaking it in. Do you mind?"
Ellen still lowered her eyes, her expression covered by thick eyelashes.
Xia Qianchen felt something was wrong in the atmosphere: "Hurry up and make a wish."
"..."
"Are you ready?"
Ellen nodded stiffly.
Xia Qianchen blew out the candles, turned on a small emergency flashlight, and handed the cake to Ellen, but she didn't pick it up.
"What's wrong? Do you really dislike how small it is?"
Ellen still didn't speak, and looked very strange.
Xia Qianchen put the cake on the table and patted her shoulder: "Go to bed early."
That night, not long after Xia Qianchen lay on the bed, Ellen also lay down, but the cake was left untouched. She felt a little uneasy. Did she go overboard and interfere with Ellen's affairs?
She had no sleep all night, and until dawn in the morning, Nangong Young Emperor's people did not show up to take her away again.
It was a very strange night.
Xia Qianchen thought a lot and finally got sleepy. Not long after taking a nap, the prison bell rang on time at 6 o'clock.
Xia Qianchen woke up in a daze and happened to see Ellen's leaving figure.
He glanced around again and paused when he saw the cake being thrown into the trash can.
Xia Qianchen met Ellen in the bathroom and greeted her but was ignored. When making cakes that day, Ellen also changed work stations with other female prisoners.
Xia Qianchen's heart was like a rock, sinking continuously.
She thought maybe she had violated Ellen's taboo somewhere and made her unhappy.
At noon, Xia Qianchen, who was getting ready for a lunch break, saw someone coming in and started packing the things on the lower bunk.
There were three police officers and a female prisoner holding a quilt.
Xia Qianchen felt something was wrong: "What's wrong?"
"Your roommate No. 0321 applied to change dormitories. From now on, No. 0125 will be your new roommate."
Changing dormitories? Why? Just because of the cake yesterday?
Xia Qianchen felt like she was struck by lightning——
She didn't know why, but she never had a relationship with women. Growing up, she had made two friends, one was Jiani and the other was Ellen.
Jiani ignored her like that, and Ellen abandoned her inexplicably.
Is it her problem, or is she looking at the wrong person?!
Xia Qianchen saw that they just packed up Ellen's things and threw them aside, while the Shinjuku friends began to tidy up the lower bunk.
She thought that Ellen would always come back to take away things. Besides, the prison was so big and they ate and worked together, so she could ask clearly.
While working in the afternoon, Xia Qianchen changed places with the female prisoner next to Ellen.
"Your cake-making skills have improved." Xia Qianchen deliberately said in a relaxed tone.
Ellen didn't seem to hear and went straight to decorating the cake.
Xia Qianchen said some more words, but they were of no use. Ellen was even more indifferent than when they first met.
"Although we are not friends, we can still be considered partners who help each other. You left without any reason like this. Can you give me an explanation?" "..."
"If it's because of the cake and my troubles, you can tell me." Xia Qianchen said sincerely, "I regard you as a friend, but your treatment like this makes me feel... uncomfortable."
"Friend?" Ellen said with a brush, inserted the decorating tool into the cake, and turned around coldly and said, "Don't you know that eating cake every day makes you sick to your stomach?"
"That's the reason?"
"Stop trying to please me. Your way of trying to please me is too obvious."
Xia Qianchen's body froze instantly.
"So it's fake."
Xia Qianchen smiled: "Do you think I'm fake?"
"Otherwise, why would you be so nice to me?" Ellen smiled sarcastically, "You've really got the wrong person to please. I'm worthless now. I'm going to find someone else."
He was treated sincerely, but he was accused of being like this, and he was filled with sad emotions.
Xia Qianchen suddenly remembered that Xia Qianzao had scolded her and said:
[Xia Qianchen, don’t you think it’s too obvious and fake that you’re trying to please people? Your hypocritical and begging look makes me sick! That’s right. If you don’t please dad, you can’t be with us.
If the Xia family survives, they will become orphans again, begging on the street in the cold wind... You stinky beggar, why do you think that you can take away the love that originally belongs to us by wagging your tail to daddy!】
"So you feel the same way," Xia Qianchen said numbly, "It doesn't matter, just think I was wrong."
Xia Qianchen turned around to leave, but found that several people watching the excitement had gathered around her.
Especially those supporters who immediately came over and said, "Xia Gou, doesn't it feel hard to be abandoned? You have indeed made a mistake, why not join us..."
"Get lost." Xia Qianchen said helplessly.
"Come on, join us and we will give you something better..."
"I told you to get lost!"
Xia Qianchen lifted it casually, and a basin filled with materials fell to the ground, making a loud noise.
Everyone looked at her. Xia Qianchen's expression was terrifying and she could not be angered, so she had to part ways.
Xia Qianchen pushed through the crowd and ran out...
That afternoon, Ellen took advantage of her free time to pack up all her things and take them away.
From then on, Xia Qianchen and Ailun were at odds with each other. When they met on the road, they would feel colder than when they met Anda and the support team.
Two former friends suddenly became enemies, and everyone was puzzled at first. Later, rumors spread from unknown sources that Xia Qianchen was too flattering. She secretly sent birthday cakes but was too obvious in flattering, and was discovered by Ellen.
The latter two fell out.
Time turns the pages quickly.
PS Why did Ellen suddenly fall out? An important mystery, the answer will be revealed soon!
