Chapter 117: Chapter 88 Surprise_3

"Uncle Ye, shouldn’t you also give a meeting gift?" The look in Jian Yexuan’s eyes clearly saw her as a troublesome child, a sly glint flashed across Mou Ye’s eyes.

Uncle Ye? Hearing this title again, Ye Xuan speechlessly touched his nose, seeing Jiang Zheng looking like he was enjoying the drama, he nodded, "Okay, my gift will be the same as your Uncle Jiang’s."

Luo Ye’s eyes quickly curved into crescents: "Great, I don’t want others to know about my gift, let’s talk in the guest room. Brother, you come too."

Jiang Zheng promptly got up: "Alright, making it quite mysterious, Ye, let’s coordinate."

Wen Xin gave her daughter a reproachful look: "You girl, really troublesome."

"It’s not troublesome, mainly because I’m worried about extorting stuff from uncle in front of you, afraid you might scold me." Luo Ye smiled at Yang Mingfang: "Teacher Yang, pardon me."

Yang Mingfang, smiling ingratiatingly, stood up: "No worries."

As Luo Ye and the others disappeared behind the door, Yang Mingfang looked anxiously at Wen Xin: "Madam, I was inappropriate before in my actions, please be magnanimous and don’t take it to heart. From now on, if anyone bullies Luo Ye, I will help her without revealing her identity, is that acceptable?"

Wen Xin smiled lightly: "Teacher Yang, Ye’er is not a narrow-minded child, and we, as her parents, will not trouble you over such trivial matters. Rest assured, also, you can call me Wen Xin."

"Thank you, Madam!" Yang Mingfang still didn’t change her way of addressing, worriedly glancing at the firmly closed door of the study. Her husband and she had visited before, bringing gifts, but were politely sent away by Mayor Luo.

This time the couple learned their lesson, bringing no gifts, and her husband brought a long-prepared project proposal for the Mayor, unsure if it would be of any use.

...

Inside the guest room.

Luo Ye diligently poured tea for Jiang Zheng and Ye Xuan, holding her two treasures, and sat earnestly opposite them along with her brother.

Jiang Zheng teased: "Ye’er, with such a grand setup, uncle is really curious about what you want, come on, tell us."

Luo Ye smiled sweetly at them: "My request isn’t high, a cellphone from each of you, it just so happens my brother and I each need one. Of course, more is also welcome, but only if they’re the civilian internal devices, purchasing doesn’t count."

Mou Ye was asking for a lot, given Jiang Zheng’s authority, he could get civilian internal devices which signal functions a regular phone can’t compare to, something money can’t buy. Meat placed right in front of you shouldn’t be left unbitten.

Jiang Zheng’s face grew serious: "Ye’er, how do you know about the civilian internal devices?" These were meant for their families, not many knew about this, and he believed Luo Zhenggang wouldn’t have told the children.

Luo Ye with a speechless expression: "Uncle Jiang, really, you were at my house the year before last, sitting in the living room, you bragged about it to my dad, remember?"

"I said that?" Jiang Zheng was somewhat skeptical.

Luo Ye pursed her lips: "At that time, uncle joked about my dad’s poor mobile signal, boasting how many times better your civilian internal devices were than my dad’s. I’ve always remembered it, waited so long, finally had a chance to bring it up, do you think I’d miss it?"

After being reminded by Luo Ye, Jiang Zheng was also perplexed, pondering, he too could be that superficial? But given his and Luo Zhenggang’s relationship, it was indeed possible, but still, it’s quite embarrassing.

"Probably both you and my dad forgot, I remember because I don’t have one, naturally I hope for the best." Luo Ye sighed, "Uncle, if it’s troublesome, then forget it, as if I never mentioned anything."

"You little girl, using reverse psychology on uncle?" Jiang Zheng laughed, "However, uncle can give you one, technically since I’m your dad’s best friend, I could somewhat be considered a relative, but what about others, how should this be counted?"

"Uncle Xiao Ye, if you find it difficult, you don’t have to give anything, I can’t shamelessly pull connections." Luo Ye looked at Ye Xuan cheekily, but when her gaze met those deep purple eyes, calling him uncle just didn’t feel right, she covered it up with a laugh: "Is Xiao Ye mixed-race?"

"You call him Xiao Ye? Show some respect to uncle." Ye Xuan’s eyes quickly filled with amusement; making this little girl uncomfortable was truly not easy.
