Chapter 689: Chapter 689 [Extra] Don’t be fooled again next time

Sheng Ning’an’s cheeks were slightly red, and he coughed uncomfortably before saying, "I just picked something at random. I hope Uncle and Auntie won’t mind. The car is here, and I’ll come to see you when I have time in a couple of days."

"Okay!" Xu Weiran smiled as he helped her load a pile of stuff into the taxi parked in front of them. He only walked toward the next taxi after the car had driven off.

As for Sheng Yeli, he had gotten into the car as soon as it came to a stop.

Sheng Ning’an looked at his Young Uncle, growing more and more worried for him. Which girl would fancy his Young Uncle, a guy who was bad at conversation, had low EQ, and was only interested in doing experiments all day long?

His Young Uncle wasn’t really going to remain single for the rest of his life, was he?

Sheng Family.

The Sheng Family were very happy with the gifts brought back by Sheng Ning’an, each person more pleased than the last.

Especially knowing that Xu Weiran had prepared some of them, they were even more delighted.

As for the fact that Sheng Yeli hadn’t brought back gifts for everyone, the family was used to it. Other than preparing gifts for family birthdays or other significant days, it wasn’t common to see him brining gifts for everyone.

Sheng Ning’an also mentioned to everyone that she had done a cameo in a filming, and they praised her lavishly, asking specifically which show it was and declaring their intention to watch it once it was broadcast.

"The director has some taste to have chosen our An’an to play the first beauty. This drama shouldn’t be too bad, Old Sheng, why don’t you contact the production crew to see if they need investment? We could add some funding and help get the shooting finished sooner?" Qin Suxin proposed excitedly.

"Sure!" Sheng Yan Cheng also wanted to show his support for his granddaughter and readily agreed with a nod.

Sheng Ning’an hastily intervened, "Grandpa, Grandma, there’s no need to invest. I only did a single cameo scene. Besides, the crew paid me US$ 200, and I specifically bought local pastries for everyone with my first paycheck. Please, try them out. This was bought with my very first earnings."

Sheng Ning’an said as she picked out a box of pastries from among the mound of gifts, opening it in front of everyone.

Qin Suxin happily took a piece and said, "My granddaughter is so considerate, thinking of spending her first earnings on us. Not like your dad and your Young Uncle, who never think about us."

Sheng Chuyi and Sheng Yeli both gave a wry smile; one was indifferent.

However, everyone courteously took a piece of the pastries bought by Sheng Ning’an, one each. Although the taste was just so-so, not even as good as those bought from the nearby pastry shop, the sentiment mattered more since they were purchased with Sheng Ning’an’s first earned money.

The taste itself was no longer important.

What everyone enjoyed was the thoughtfulness behind it.

Sheng Ning’an even specifically handed a piece to Sheng Yeli, "Young Uncle, try it. The money I earned this time was just enough to treat everyone to pastries, but when I make more money in the future, I’ll definitely buy each of you an expensive gift."

Sheng Yeli: "I don’t like sweets."

Sheng Ning’an said with a smile, "Don’t worry, I know you don’t like sweets. The one I picked for you is sugar-free, not very sweet."

Sheng Yeli took a bite under the expectant gaze of Sheng Ning’an.

The pastry wasn’t inedible, but it was genuinely unappetizing.

Sheng Yeli frowned slightly, but he finished the pastry without leaving a crumb, and then said to Sheng Ning’an, "These so-called local specialties are just meant to deceive tourists like you. Don’t be fooled again next time." With that, he stood up and went back to his room.

Sheng Ning’an: ...
