Extra 60
Qin Anning gave an awkward smile and reluctantly walked in.
"I was just afraid of disturbing your work."
Qin Ce took off his glasses, rubbed his temples, and then looked at her with a half-smile, "When did you become so self-aware?"
"I've always been very self-aware," Qin Anning retorted.
"Yeah?"
"Isn't that right?" Qin Anning retorted, but her voice lacked conviction.
She wasn't so self-aware before, especially when she was little. No matter what her father was doing in the study, she would barge in.
Often during his video conferences, Qin Anning would climb into his lap and sit there.
Then everyone in the video will see him holding a little girl, having a serious meeting.
Qin Ce didn't argue with her, he just looked at her.
Qin Anning came to his side and took out a box from behind her back. "I'm here to give you a gift. I brought it all the way from Haishi."
Qin Ce raised an eyebrow, took the box from her hand, opened it, and saw that it contained a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
She explained, "These lenses are made of multi-layered nano-level optical materials. They not only have super UV protection and blue light protection, but they can also automatically adjust the brightness according to different lighting conditions, just like installing a smart dimmer for your eyes. They can greatly relieve your eye fatigue and are perfect for you."
"What advertisement have you been fooled by this time?"
"What? I bought it especially for you. It cost me over 50,000 yuan. Try it on and you'll see."
As Qin Anning spoke, she took out the glasses and put them on Qin Ce.
Qin Ce didn't dodge and let her put on the glasses.
"How is it? Isn't it better than what you're wearing..."
Qin Anning was halfway through her sentence when she suddenly noticed the logo on his glasses, and her smile froze.
She grabbed Qin Ce's glasses, looked at them over and over for a while, and then looked at the ones he was wearing on his nose.
They're actually from the same brand.
"Dad, you said I got scammed, but you bought it yourself too?"
Qin Ce snatched the glasses back from her hand. "These were a gift from your mother."
Qin Anning's lips twitched, then she praised, "As expected of Mom, we have the same taste."
"It's normal for her to be scammed because of her age, but what about you?" Qin Ce stared at her intently.
Qin Anning was both amused and exasperated. "Aren't you afraid she'll hear you talking about her like that?"
"It's just telling the truth, what's the harm in hearing it?"
"Would you dare say she's old to her face?"
"..."
Qin Ce cleared his throat, took off Qin Anning's glasses and put them in the case, and said with a stern face, "If you have nothing to do, go out and don't disturb my work."
Qin Anning couldn't help but laugh, blinked, and said, "Dad, are you feeling guilty?"
Qin Ce glanced at her unhappily, "How dare you speak to your elders like that? You have no manners."
Qin Anning shrugged.
Qin Ce told her to leave, but he didn't really intend to kick her out.
He put his glasses back on and continued looking at the documents on the computer screen.
Qin Anning stood there for a while, and when she realized that her father really didn't intend to say anything to her, the smile on her face gradually faded.
Before returning home, she was afraid her parents would ask about Fu Yin.
But they didn't say anything, or even mention it, which made Qin Anning feel even worse.
She understood that they were waiting for her to speak, and that they didn't ask her directly because they were afraid of bringing up painful memories.
In the past, they would always ask her how things were going with Fu Yin, but this time when she came back, they didn't mention that name at all, so it was obvious that they knew.
Qin Anning hesitated for a long time before looking at her father with a conflicted expression and calling out softly, "Dad."
