Chapter 20: A Star Falls From The Sky?
He knew his wife had always been taking care of him and had never left his side.
He also knew that because his mental power was unstable, he had often hurt his wife, leaving her body covered in scars.
He knew even more that his wife had never given up on him…
With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for!
“Wife, thank you.”
Mother Shi looked back at her husband, her eyes full of love, “You’re welcome. If you really want to thank me, get better soon!”
Father Shi, upon hearing this, looked at the vibrant green plants around him and replied firmly, “Okay!” He certainly would.
The two of them, one standing and one sitting, stayed in the courtyard for a long time.
They carefully admired every green plant, every flower…
It had been five years, and they had never felt this relaxed.
“By the way, I haven’t given An’an a gift yet.”
Suddenly, Father Shi remembered that his youngest daughter had come home, and everyone had given her gifts, but he hadn’t because he was in a coma.
Mother Shi tilted her head to look at her husband, “Then what do you plan to give your daughter?”
Father Shi’s pale and gaunt face actually had a hint of rosiness at that moment, and Mother Shi felt an uncontrollable anticipation and joy in her heart upon seeing it.
Shi Xiaoxiao, who had been silent all along, immediately chimed in upon hearing this, “Yesterday Miss An’an registered a shop on Star Net, and Miss An’an plans to sell green plants there to make money.”
“Make money?” Father Shi and Mother Shi said in unison.
“Is An’an short on money?” Mother Shi asked.
Shi Xiaoxiao shook her head, “Yes, very short! Because Miss An’an wants to buy a planet. She said she wants to plant it full of green plants…”
“Buy a planet.” Mother Shi understood, then looked at her husband and raised an eyebrow, “See, your gift has arrived.”
“Haha, indeed.”
Father Shi immediately checked his assets, “Come, wife, let’s pick one together to give to An’an.”
“Sure, but I feel like she’ll be happy with whichever one you give her.”
“Of course, my daughter!” Father Shi looked proud.
………..
Meanwhile, Shi An’an finally met her roommate.
A petite girl with a very sweet appearance and seemingly a lively personality.
“Hello, wow, you’re so pretty!” Lele entered the dormitory and, upon seeing Shi An’an at first glance, felt an inexplicable closeness for some reason.
“I’m Lele. Can I live here?” Lele looked at Shi An’an expectantly.
Shi An’an smiled and nodded, “Of course, welcome. I’m Shi An’an.”
“You have the surname Shi too?” Lele was surprised.
“The Shi from time.” Shi An’an explained, and looked at Lele, wondering which Shi she was.
“Ah! Me too… uh…, I’m the Shi from stone, haha.” Lele scratched her head, a bit annoyed on her face, muttering to herself inwardly.
“Maybe we were family in our previous life, both surnamed Shi, hahaha.”
Seeing the happily laughing Lele, Shi An’an couldn’t help but laugh too.
Seeing Shi An’an’s smile, Lele scratched her head even more puzzledly, “Don’t say it, you look a lot like my family.”
At this moment, Shi An’an also looked closely at Lele. She felt a surge of closeness in her heart too, but as for appearances, the two of them didn’t resemble each other at all.
Seeing that Shi An’an didn’t believe her, Lele hurriedly explained, “Really, you look like my uncle! I look like my mom.”
Upon hearing Lele’s words, Shi An’an felt a stir in her heart and asked, “Do you have a photo of your uncle? Can I see how much we look alike?”
Lele froze, thinking of her dad’s eight hundred reminders that morning, and could only shake her head dejectedly, “No…”
“Then if there’s a chance in the future, we can meet. Maybe we really have some blood relation.” Shi An’an felt her intuitions were usually right; she really sensed some kinship with this girl.
Lele hesitated a bit, “Uh…, if there’s a chance…” She wondered if her uncle would ever have a chance to wake up. Sigh, hopefully there would be.
“Which room do you live in?” Lele couldn’t help but look toward the room on the left.
Shi An’an noticed and smiled, “I haven’t chosen yet. You pick. It doesn’t matter to me where I stay.”
Lele was thrilled upon hearing this and immediately hugged Shi An’an, “Thank you, An’an! Mmm~, you smell so nice! So comfortable…”
She had originally wanted to hug her to show thanks, but now Lele was hanging on Shi An’an and didn’t want to come down at all.
“Tsk tsk, what are you two doing? So immoral!”
Suddenly, a disdainful voice came from the doorway.
Shi An’an and Lele turned to look and saw a tall, regal older-sister type girl with her arms crossed, looking at them with disgust.
Lele unhappily got off Shi An’an, “What immoral? I think you’re just jealous of our good relationship! It’s pure friendship!”
Shi An’an also explained, “Yes, classmate, please don’t misunderstand.”
Lin Miao haughtily glanced at the two, “Tch!” and turned to leave.
“Hey, how can you be so rude? Lunatic…” Lele angrily wanted to chase after her to reason.
Shi An’an pulled Lele back, “Don’t reason with people like that. You’ll only upset yourself. Some people like to jump to conclusions; we can’t stop them.”
Lin Miao quickly turned around, “Who are you calling a lunatic? You two are the lunatics! Clearly you two are…”
“Pa!” Shi An’an coldly closed the door and activated the room’s soundproofing, so they could no longer hear any sounds from outside.
“Alright, let’s go pick rooms.”
Lele was still puffed up with anger, “Having a classmate with that personality is such bad luck!”
“Okay, don’t be angry. There are a thousand kinds of things and a thousand kinds of people. Just be yourself.” Shi An’an comforted her. In her previous life in the Cultivation World, she had met all sorts of people; who could guarantee everyone loved them like a divine artifact!
Not to mention, some people didn’t even like divine artifacts!
“I’ll take this one on the left.”
“Okay, I’ll take the one on the right.”
After choosing their rooms, the two finally entered their respective rooms and began unpacking their belongings.
Shi An’an took out the things her older sister had prepared for her from the space button.
From large items like bedsheets and duvet covers to small ones like cups and toothbrushes… everything was provided.
“Drip…”
A message popped up. Shi An’an tapped to look and her eyes widened.
“Dear Ms. Shi An’an, hello. On August 31, 5021 at 10:13 Interstellar time, Mr. Shi Zhen Guang has transferred the H11 planet under his name to your name. Please check and confirm. Thank you!”
Shi An’an: “???!!!” What was this? Who was Shi Zhen Guang? Oh, right, it was her dad!
“Drip…”
Another message came. Shi An’an quickly opened it.
“An’an, it’s Dad. Welcome home. Dad was in a coma earlier and didn’t give you a gift. Now the gift is made up. Dad hopes that in the future, you can do what you like freely and boldly. Dad is here!”
