Chapter 595: Chapter 595 [Extra] Eighteenth Birthday
After the field practice, Sheng Ning’an had not seen Xu Weiran for about two or three months.
First, the other person was really busy. As a researcher and a high school student, it was hard for them to meet if they didn’t make a deliberate appointment.
The next meeting was already on Chinese New Year’s Eve.
Sheng Ning’an went to the laboratory to bring dumplings to her Young Uncle, and unexpectedly, Xu Weiran was also there.
It was said that Xu Weiran’s new experiment had made a groundbreaking progress, and a foreign laboratory had taken notice and invited him to discuss the project, and he was scheduled to go abroad after the New Year.
She had heard this news from Yeli.
There were two exchange spots in the laboratory, and the other was originally for Yeli, as both were recognized as the rising stars of the institute.
Going abroad was like gold-plating; returning with that experience, one’s social status and treatment were completely different.
However, Yeli had declined.
Sheng Ning’an knew that her Young Uncle was solely focused on his research and did not care about money or fame.
Of course, that didn’t mean that Xu Weiran’s choice to go abroad was wrong. After all, it was a fact that laboratories abroad were more advanced than those at home, and going abroad could provide more learning opportunities. Setting aside fame and treatment, it was greatly beneficial for personal improvement.
"Heard you are going abroad? Congratulations!" Sheng Ning’an couldn’t help but congratulate him when they met in the laboratory.
"Thanks!"
Xu Weiran raised his hand and patted her head, saying, "Little girl, work hard. I hope when I return, you won’t need any more tutoring."
Sheng Ning’an glared at him and said, "Can’t you say something nice?"
Xu Weiran: "Of course I can. What do you want to hear?"
Sheng Ning’an: "Like, hoping that next time we meet, I’ll be prettier than now?"
Xu Weiran laughed and said, "You are already pretty enough; no need to be any prettier!"
Okay, I’ll take that as a compliment.
Two years later
On Sheng Ning’an’s eighteenth birthday, the Sheng Family hosted a grand coming-of-age ceremony for her at a hotel. All relatives, friends, and business partners associated with the Sheng Family attended.
At the moment, as the guest of honor, Sheng Ning’an planned her escape after cutting the cake.
After changing out of her gown in the dressing room, she unexpectedly bumped into someone as she exited the room.
Sheng Ning’an got a fright, but once she saw it was Yeli, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Young Uncle, it’s you! You scared me to death."
Yeli glanced at her clothes and asked, "Sneaking around, where are you planning to go?"
Sheng Ning’an looked around, and seeing no one else, whispered, "My friends have booked a private room in a nearby KTV. They invited some classmates and friends to celebrate for me privately. I don’t know when this banquet will end, and most of the people here are either strangers or acquaintances. As long as my parents are here to host, it should be fine. Just pretend you didn’t see me, please, Young Uncle, and don’t tell mom." Sheng Ning’an clasped her hands together, pleading.
Her mom, perhaps due to menopause, had become particularly nagging lately. Sheng Ning’an didn’t want to endure her mother’s nagging, so avoiding it altogether was the best strategy.
Yeli: "Don’t stay out too late, be safe, and send me the address later. I’ll come pick you up after a while."
Sheng Ning’an’s eyes lit up, she nodded eagerly and said, "Got it, I knew Young Uncle you were the best! Don’t worry, I’ll take care of myself. I’m leaving now." With that, she was about to make her escape...
