Chapter 60: Surprise
“Ahem, An’an, I am your uncle.” Shi Mu Guang walked over.
Shi An’an looked at the man whose face was somewhat similar to Father’s, and politely called out, “Uncle.”
Shi Mu Guang glanced at his daughter who was pouting her butt while studying the rose, it was simply too embarrassing to watch.
“Lele, Lele! Shi Lele!!!” Shi Mu Guang loudly called his daughter.
“Eh, here, I’m here!” Shi Lele heard her dad’s voice and reflexively responded.
She got up and immediately saw Grandmother was also here, and happily went forward, “Grandmother, it’s been so long since I saw you, I missed you so much!”
“Treasure, Grandmother missed you too~” Gao Jin Xiao also happily hugged her little granddaughter.
“Tsk.” Shi Mu Guang jealously looked at his own daughter; he was such a big living person standing here, and she couldn’t see him?
Shi Lele then looked at her own dad, and then looked at An’an with some difficulty, “An’an…, this is my father, sorry, I never told you…”
Shi Mu Guang then remembered that his daughter hadn’t come clean with her cousin, and immediately explained from the side.
Shi An’an then understood, “Then Lele is also my sister, that’s great. No wonder I felt we were so fated from the first glance.”
Shi Lele nodded vigorously while listening, “Yeah, from the first time I saw Sister An’an, I felt so familiar. She looks especially like my little uncle. I even told Sister An’an that if there’s a chance in the future, I would let them meet…”
Speaking of little uncle, Shi Lele then looked at little uncle and aunt on the side, and immediately politely called out, “Little uncle, Aunt, hello, I am your niece, Lele.”
“Eh, hello Lele.” An Yun enthusiastically pulled her niece, “Aunt didn’t prepare a gift for you today. Next time you come, Aunt will make it up to you. This time, Aunt will give you pocket money as a meeting gift. Lele, don’t be mad, okay.”
“Uncle will also give you pocket money.” Shi Zhen Guang chimed in.
“Thank you, Aunt!” As soon as she heard there was pocket money, Shi Lele was overjoyed.
An Yun smilingly transferred pocket money to Lele. Meanwhile, Shi An’an on the side watched her dad and mom’s actions, her eyes secretly glancing at uncle on the side.
After transferring the money, Shi Zhen Guang looked up expressionlessly at his eldest brother.
Then, An Yun also looked at big brother.
Shi Mu Guang: ………This family, that’s enough!
“An’an, Uncle prepared a gift for you long ago.” Shi Mu Guang was prepared and smugly glanced at his little brother.
Shi Mu Guang took out the things he had prepared earlier and handed them to Shi An’an, “An’an, this is the access pass to the Botanical Research Institute, this is your badge, and this one, on behalf of the Botanical Research Institute, I formally hire you as special personnel for our research institute.”
“This special personnel means you can come and go as you please in the future. Our research institute also has several who are special personnel.” Shi Mu Guang explained.
Shi Zhen Guang was unhappy upon hearing this, “You’re forcing it on her! An’an hasn’t agreed, and you’ve already decided?”
Shi Mu Guang ignored him and continued, “An’an, I saw your green plants, they are very special. Without your permission, I took some samples for testing.
The results show that your green plants are all safe, without any toxin, and beneficial to the human body…”
“Additionally, you have merit in discovering the Insectoid Race this time. I applied to the school and rewarded you with fifty credits. These fifty credits are equivalent to you having already completed the university coursework…”
Shi An’an was surprised by uncle’s identity, while also pondering what uncle’s purpose was in doing this.
Shi Mu Guang continued, “I know your abilities are different from ours, and your way of cultivating green plants is also different. Therefore, as the dean of the Botany Department at Capital Star First University, I specially approve that you don’t need to attend classes.”
“Hm? No need to attend classes?” Shi An’an was stunned. What did that mean?
“My meaning is, you attending classes at school is a bit of a waste of time. At school, we teach students how to cultivate green plants with excellent appearance, but your green plants are already extremely excellent.
And the methods taught at school are completely useless to you…”
When Shi Mu Guang first learned that Shi An’an’s green plants were cultivated in just a few minutes, he was dazed. The series of cultivation plans he had originally formulated for his niece were completely scrapped.
This was also what he decided after thinking for a long time.
“I believe you can freely exert your abilities, without being confined to the rigid methods at school.”
Shi An’an’s first reaction was delight; this also meant she could return to H11 Star and realize her dream.
“However…”
Shi An’an came back to her senses, “Uncle, go ahead.”
Shi Mu Guang smiled, “However, you need to submit homework every year. At the end of each year, the Botany Department requires submitting self-cultivated green plants. If not up to standard, you will still be transferred to other departments.
Of course, this is very simple for you, so just remember to submit homework when the time comes.”
“Then can I also not go to school usually?” Shi An’an hurriedly asked.
“Yes.” Shi Mu Guang nodded.
Shi An’an was thrilled upon hearing this, while Shi Lele on the side wilted.
“An’an, you’re not going to school?”
Shi An’an looked at Shi Lele and nodded, “I want to go back to H11 Star. I want to build H11 Star!”
Shi Lele, hearing this answer, felt reluctant but had to support it.
“Alright then, during the holiday, can I go to H11 Star to find you?”
“Of course, by then, I’ll build a wooden house. We can live in the wooden house or on the trees…” Shi An’an excitedly shared her ideas.
Shi Lele listened with a face full of longing.
Meanwhile, the adults on the side listened to the two’s discussion, each with varied expressions.
In the flower cluster, Xiu lay motionless on the ground. From the moment he came in, he had slipped directly into the flower cluster. On one hand, he had never seen such beautiful flowers; on the other hand, he saw Shi Zhen Guang.
Before, they had contact, and he was afraid Shi Zhen Guang would recognize him.
Uh, actually his idea was completely negligible, because Shi Zhen Guang didn’t associate the little furball in front of him at all with the Empire’s illustrious God of War.
In the evening, Shi An’an looked at a table of dishes, her face showing distress again. This table of dishes was not only expensive but also unpalatable.
“Right, let me stir-fry a few dishes for you.” Shi An’an remembered the seeds she bought and asked everyone.
“Oh? Of course, I just don’t know what dishes An’an will make? I’ll place an order now for them to deliver…” Gao Jin Xiao heard her obedient granddaughter wanted to cook personally and didn’t stop her, fully supportive.
“No need, no need, Grandmother, I have seeds. We’ll eat them fresh!” Shi An’an took out seeds from the space button.
“Seeds? Fresh?” Gao Jin Xiao had heard her granddaughter could accelerate growth of seeds, but hadn’t seen it with her own eyes.
“Let me see.” Gao Jin Xiao squatted excitedly beside her granddaughter to watch.
And outside, Xiu keenly sensed the change in Shi An’an’s aura and immediately ran to her side to absorb the energy from her.
