Chapter 944: Best Friend
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Since learning that his parents were moving back in, Gao Ming could hardly contain his excitement.
While others might not have noticed, Su Li was aware of his friend’s eagerness. Gao Ming pretended to be indifferent, but Su Li knew he cared deeply. The last time Gao Ming’s father had bought him a toy, he had treasured it, especially a tin Santa Claus toy that was his absolute favorite.
Inside the carefully wrapped gift box that Gao Ming brought with him was precisely that cherished Santa Claus toy. Dressed in a bright red coat, the Santa was riding a bicycle with a small basket filled with various gifts.
Su Li remembered Gao Ming telling him that these gifts were meant for children, as Santa Claus was the kindest old man in the world.
Su Li was captivated by the stories Gao Ming shared about Santa, making him particularly interested in the toy. He was touched to learn that Gao Ming had noticed his fascination; on his birthday, Gao Ming was willing to part with his favorite toy as a gift. Su Li sniffled, overwhelmed with gratitude.
Looking at the toy in the box, Gao Ming felt a pang of reluctance but said to Su Li, “You are my best friend, so I want to give you what I think is the best toy. Happy birthday, Su Li!”
With a firm motion, he pressed the toy into Su Li’s hands. Su Li took a moment to admire the beautiful Santa. He genuinely liked it, but he understood that this toy held significant meaning for Gao Ming. His mother had once taught him that a gentleman should not take what others cherish, so he couldn’t accept Gao Ming’s favorite toy.
After a moment of contemplation, Su Li reached into the basket on Santa’s bicycle and pulled out a candy. Although it wasn’t real candy, it looked incredibly realistic.
He handed Santa back to Gao Ming and said, “Thank you! I just want this candy. Let’s pretend it’s your gift to me. You keep Santa safe. I can’t take your favorite thing because you are my best friend, too. Now let’s go to school! We can eat cake together tonight!”
