Chapter 21: Father Shi’s “unintentional” Move
A few short sentences made Shi An’an’s eyes redden.
“So strange, after coming here, why have I become more and more emotional…” Shi An’an rubbed her eyes and murmured.
“Thank you, Father. I really like this gift!”
Shi An’an thought for a long time before replying with these few words. She wanted to say something, but felt too shy. In her previous life, she had no family ties; in this life, she had family!
For now, this feeling was great! In just half a month, she had experienced the warmth of family.
Although everyone was very busy and they couldn’t meet, she could feel everyone’s thoughtfulness and care for her, as well as respect.
Receiving his daughter’s reply, Father Shi was also very happy.
Seeing her husband’s worthless smile, Mother Shi knew it must be a message from An’an.
“By the way, you’re awake. Should we let Eldest Brother and the others know?”
Instantly, Father Shi’s smile faded. “Hmph, didn’t they drive me out back then? Whether I’m awake or not makes no difference to them.”
Seeing her husband’s sulky appearance, Mother Shi said amusedly, “Back then when you were unconscious, Eldest Brother came to see you often and pulled many strings to transfer you back to Capital Star. Otherwise, given the situation at the time…”
Mother Shi didn’t want to talk about that year’s situation anymore. Anyway, it was in the past.
“Although they drove you out of the Shi Family back then, they didn’t completely ignore you. After you had your accident, the Shi Family learned about it first and arranged for people to come over.
Moreover, regarding the children’s matters, the Shi Family has more or less pulled some strings.
You should just bow your head to Eldest Brother and admit your mistake. Back then, if it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have given up…”
“Wife~~~” Hearing his wife’s self-blaming words, Father Shi immediately interrupted, looking at his wife with some grievance.
“Do you regret marrying me?”
Mother Shi rolled her eyes. “Of course not. If I regretted it, when you had your accident back then, I would have divorced you!”
“I don’t regret it either!” Father Shi said firmly.
“You…” Mother Shi opened her mouth, her eyes reddening, then her face blushed. “Old and improper!”
“Ahem, in front of my wife, what does being proper mean!”
Father Shi picked up the optical computer, casually found a good angle and took “click” “click” photos, casually selected the best-looking ones, casually took close-ups of the sunflowers and roses, then casually accidentally sent them to his social platform.
“Planted by my little daughter, very beautiful, better than Father! [Picture][Picture][Picture][Picture]…”
Seeing her husband’s series of operations, Mother Shi shook her head with a smile. “You, childish just like the kids.”
After so many years, she understood her husband. Although he was driven out of the Shi Family back then and had always held a grudge, even though he later achieved success in the military and became the Supreme Commander of the Ninth Legion, he could never let go of the Shi Family in his heart.
She had advised him many times, but this man always refused to bow his head because of his pride.
Later, when her husband had his accident, the Shi Family contacted her first. After resolving the matters her husband left behind, they pulled strings to bring her husband, who was originally to be detained in the M star system, back to Capital Star.
On Capital Star, there was the most authoritative medical team, the safest sanatorium, and the best treatment.
All of this eliminated her resistance toward the Shi Family, as she had originally not been accepted by them.
It turned out that over these years, the Shi Family had always been paying attention to their family, especially the Matriarch of the Shi Family, who, after her husband had his accident, opened her heart to her and expressed regret for the decision back then.
Now that her husband was awake, she also hoped he could return to the main family, reunite with his family, and resolve the resentment in his heart.
Hearing his wife’s words, Father Shi’s face slightly reddened. “Hmph, I’m 80 this year, how am I childish! I just want everyone to see that although Master Shi left the Botanical Research Institute back then, now he has a successor!”
“Moreover, my daughter’s talent is even higher than mine!” Father Shi said proudly.
“Yes, yes, yes, you’re right about everything!”
The two chatted while continuing to admire the flowers in the courtyard, completely unaware that the photos just posted had caused a huge stir.
Shi Mu Guang was the first to see the content posted by his younger brother. He always kept his family’s social accounts at the top of his list, so any message would notify him immediately.
However, just now, he received the notification that his younger brother had posted on the social platform. At first, he thought he had seen wrong. How could his brother, who had been in a coma for five years, post using his account, unless…
Shi Mu Guang clicked on it with a fearful heart. He immediately saw the photo of his brother and sister-in-law, and instantly, Shi Mu Guang’s eyes welled up with tears.
Five years… finally… the kid was awake!
He was happy in his heart for a long time, looking at his brother’s photos over and over. After his mood calmed, he looked at the other photos.
At this look, it was incredible. The plants in the photos his brother posted were all high-grade at a glance, especially the roses and sunflowers—simply perfect!
“Where did this kid get so many top-quality green plants without telling me…” Shi Mu Guang exited the photos and saw the content his brother posted.
“Little daughter? An’an?” Shi Mu Guang frowned. He had just received news a couple of days ago that this niece had been staying in the training camp the entire summer vacation, and this child had always aimed to enter the Ninth Legion. How could she be planting these plants?
“I need to ask…” Shi Mu Guang couldn’t wait to know the situation with these green plants.
“Beep…”
Before Shi Mu Guang could open the communication with his sister-in-law, he received a call from his mother, who was currently traveling in the ring system.
“Mom”
“Mu Guang, did you see the message your brother posted? He’s awake? Real or fake? Quickly ask if he’s really awake. Also, in the fourth picture your brother posted, on the right side, second row from the top counting down, third rose from the left to right—I saw it and like it a lot. See if you can…”
Shi Mu Guang: “………Mom, do you want me to ask if Zhen Guang is awake, or do you want that rose?”
The elegant and beautiful woman with a head of gray hair on the video screen paused, then proudly raised her head. “First ask if that kid is awake, then… tell him, if he wants to admit his mistake to this mother, he can exchange it with a rose!”
“………” Shi Mu Guang looked at his stubborn mother, black lines on his face. “Didn’t you tell sister-in-law that you regretted your previous decision? Didn’t you say that once Zhen Guang wakes up, you’ll apologize to him and let him come back? Didn’t you…”
“Snap!”
Before the eldest son finished speaking, Gao Jin Xiao immediately hung up the call.
“Brat, if this old lady could bring herself to do it, would I need you right now!” Gao Jin Xiao was full of anger, but thinking of her youngest son, her face was full of conflict.
