Chapter 66: Little Gossip
Shi Lele quickly aimed the camera at the opposite side.
“Let me see… Let me see General Shi…” A group of people gathered around Shi Jinmo, all from the Capital Star Botanical Research Institute.
“Uncle, hello, I’m Jinmo.”
Shi Zhen Guang looked at his eldest nephew who resembled his eldest brother, and smiled warmly, “Jinmo has grown up.”
Back then, when he left home, Jinmo had just been born.
“Aunt, hello.” Shi Jinmo looked at the aunt beside him and greeted her politely.
An Yun smiled gently, “Hello, Jinmo. Come to our home to play sometime.”
“Okay, thank you, Aunt.”
Shi Lele aimed at An’an again, “Eldest Brother, this is Sister An’an. She’s amazing. She’s cultivating a seven-colored rose right now! We’re watching, oh, and Grandmother is here too.”
“Seven-colored rose?! What is that?” Shi Jinmo asked puzzled.
But when he saw Grandmother beside them, he asked puzzledly, “Grandmother, when did you come back? Weren’t you traveling?”
Gao Jin Xiao didn’t want to miss any of her granddaughter’s actions and casually replied, “I’m back again. I’m not traveling anymore. Your uncle’s home is comfortable, so I plan to stay here.”
Shi Zhen Guang: “…………”
Shi Jinmo: “？？？”
However, after Shi Jinmo saw Shi An’an cultivating the rose flowers, all his doubts vanished. He stared in shock at the suddenly grown rose…
Shi Jinmo quickly covered it up and turned off the optical computer. He looked at the people around him and pretended to be calm, “You all continue. I’m getting off work first.”
After saying that, without waiting for anyone to stop him, he quickly ran back to his room. Shi Jinmo turned on the soundproofing in the room before eagerly turning on the optical computer.
The research personnel left behind looked at each other.
“What’s the situation? What happened?”
“I don’t know. I still wanted to greet Master.”
“I also wanted to see General Shi. Ever since he left, the attractiveness level at our research institute has seriously dropped…”
“Hey, what do you mean by that!”
“Heh… heheh… um, I’m getting off work too. Goodbye!”
“Hey, don’t go. What did you just mean…”
“Exactly, we want to know too…”
………
“Um… An’an, sister, can… can I watch you cultivate the rose?” Shi Jinmo asked carefully.
Shi An’an pollinated the rose that already had five colors again, looked up with a smile, “Of course, Eldest Cousin.”
“Thank you, An’an.” Shi Jinmo was very grateful after getting permission.
“Wife, we’re watching An’an cultivate the seven-colored rose. When the time comes…” Shi Mu Guang looked around, covered his mouth and whispered, “I’ll ask An’an for one and give it to you.”
Bai Su’s icy face immediately softened, leaving Shi Jinbai beside her speechless as he pursed his lips.
Shi Anlei overheard Uncle’s words with his sharp ears and thought smugly in his heart, This was specially cultivated for me by An’an. No way he’s getting one!!!
The others heard it too and cast contemptuous looks at him.
Shi Mu Guang saw the others’ gazes and stared back righteously.
“Let me see An’an.” Bai Su remembered she hadn’t seen this niece she had never met.
“Sure thing!” Shi Mu Guang nimbly aimed the camera at Shi An’an, and at the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief inwardly. That was close!
Shi Jinbai also craned his neck to look at the person in the camera.
He saw a petite girl with a very… strikingly beautiful appearance. She looked very well-behaved and was seriously tending to a flower…
“Five-colored flower!” Shi Jinbai said in surprise.
Bai Su also looked in surprise at the flower in Shi An’an’s hand. There were already several single-colored rose flowers beside it.
After Shi An’an pollinated it again, she looked up, smiled sweetly, “Aunt, hello.” Then she looked at the head beside Aunt.
“This is your Second Cousin.” Shi Mu Guang reminded.
“Hello, Second Cousin.”
“Hey, An’an, hello.” Bai Su looked at her beautiful niece and immediately felt fond of her.
“Hello, sister.” Shi Jinbai waved his hand to greet Shi An’an.
“An’an, I’m on another planet right now and can’t rush back. Since you’ve returned and Aunt couldn’t see you, Aunt will transfer some pocket money to you. Buy whatever you like, okay?”
After saying that, Bai Su directly transferred some money to her husband’s account and had him forward it to Shi An’an.
“Thank you, Aunt!”
Shi An’an happily narrowed her eyes. She had pocket money again.
Shi Jinbai also quickly transferred money, “An’an, Second Cousin is transferring you some pocket money too. When I go back on leave, I’ll bring you a gift.”
“Okay, thank you, Second Cousin.” Shi An’an said sweetly.
“Tch!” Shi Anlei felt super annoyed hearing his sister sweetly calling someone else brother.
Shi Anyu beside him hadn’t spoken, but his face was slightly dark.
Shi Lele opposite them covered her mouth excitedly watching the undercurrents among the several brothers.
Shi Jinmo had also come back to his senses by now and quickly transferred some money to his sister to pass on to his cousin.
“Alright, alright, enough talking. Let An’an continue.”
Gao Jin Xiao couldn’t wait any longer and directly interrupted their pleasantries.
“Mom, you’re there too?”
Bai Su asked in surprise.
Shi Mu Guang explained softly beside them. Afterward, everyone fell silent and quietly watched Shi An’an’s actions.
When they saw Shi An’an accelerate the growth of that five-colored rose flower to produce seeds again, they were greatly shocked.
Bai Su and Shi Jinbai leaned close to the camera, unable to believe what they had just seen.
“It’s time for six colors!” Shi Anlei shouted excitedly.
Shi An’an accelerated the growth of the five-colored rose seed she had just produced. Gradually, the seed turned into a seedling, branches extended out, and then flower buds bloomed…
Shi An’an skillfully controlled the input of spiritual energy while also controlling the colors of the blooming flowers.
Five seeds simultaneously grew into five rose seedlings, and each rose seedling bloomed with several roses in different color combinations.
“This one is nice!” Gao Jin Xiao looked eagerly at one of the six-colored rose flowers.
“I like this one.” An Yun pointed at a flower that was mainly red.
“I think this one looks noble. It’s suitable for Ailin!”
“Ailin?” An Yun overheard the name sharply and looked at Third Brother.
Shi Anlei’s face turned bright red, “No, I didn’t say anything!”
Shi An’an raised an eyebrow at her third brother. So the person Third Brother liked was named Ailin!
Shi An’an and Lele exchanged a glance. Shi Lele sneaked a laugh and nodded. Shi An’an felt relieved. Once this was over, she’d know who this Ailin was.
“Cough…” Shi An’an took the last colored rose flower and pollinated the six-colored rose, then casually asked.
“Second Brother, which one do you think is pretty?”
Shi Anyu looked at all the flowers, “Every one is pretty.”
“Then… if you were picking one for your girlfriend, which would you give her?”
Instantly, everyone fell silent and perked up their ears.
Shi Anyu: “…I don’t have a girlfriend, so no need to pick.”
Everyone: “………” Boring!
