He had no choice but to put it in a box. The doll commemorated their first meeting, but since she didn't like it, it had to remain in the box.
Before he could put it back in its place, his cell phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and looked at it, with a slight smile on his face.
"good."
It seems that buying gifts is urgent.
"Brother, Mom asked you to wash the dishes." An Yuexi said reluctantly as she pushed open the door.
Mom insisted that she be the one to shout.
"good."
An Yuexi immediately returned to her room with a suspicious look on her face. She had just accidentally seen a strange box on her brother's desk, which she had never seen before.
After An Xinghe finished washing the dishes, he put the matter of the box behind him, said something to his parents and went out.
An Yuexi heard these noises in the room and subconsciously thought that he was going to find Lu Wanying.
There was a look of annoyance between his brows.
But the box in my mind can't be shaken off.
She thought about it for a long time, and finally picked up the broom and started cleaning. When she swept to her brother's room, she closed the door and couldn't help opening the box.
Her eyes suddenly lit up. This doll was so exquisite, and there were bright diamonds on its skirt, just like real diamonds.
It looks very expensive.
After being shocked, she fell into deep thought.
How come her brother has a Barbie doll that only little girls have?
Was it a gift from Lu Wanying? She wouldn't give such a thing.
Monroe? Not really.
After she finished cleaning in confusion, she returned to her room.
I asked Monroe, and she said she was not a child anymore, so why would she like Barbie dolls?
She stared at the doll she had just photographed with her phone, her chin supported by her hand, her brows furrowed in thought.
From what she knew about Barbie dolls, this one was obviously a Gemini.
Her heart moved slightly, and she asked Lan You about Lu Wanying's zodiac sign.
"Why do you ask that?"
"I...I want to see if her zodiac signs are compatible with my brother's."
"Wanying is an Aries."
So this probably wasn't a gift from Lu Wanying. Could it be that her brother had a crush on a Gemini girl before?
She thought subconsciously, and her intuition told her that the origin of this Barbie doll was not simple.
.....
In order to prepare a sumptuous dinner, Lu Rong and Lu Wanying both took leave and went to the vegetable market to buy ingredients.
It was around four o'clock when An Xinghe arrived.
He bought a gift for Wanying and also bought some fruits.
"It must be Xinghe. Wanying, go open the door." Lu Rong was showing off his skills in the kitchen.
Lu Wanying ran over like a gust of wind, opened the door, and said with a smile, "You're here."
An Xinghe handed her the big bag and whispered, "Reward."
Lu Wanying didn't expect him to prepare so seriously. She stuck out her tongue at him embarrassedly and said, "I...I just said it casually."
"Xinghe, come in and sit down." Lu Rong was too busy to spare any time, so he could only yell.
"Take it quickly." An Xinghe quickly stuffed the gift into her hands.
Suddenly he walked towards Lu Rong.
"Uncle Lu, sorry to bother you again."
"No way?"
Lu Wanying entered the room and slowly took out the contents of the bag, which turned out to be a furry Pikachu.
She was so happy that she couldn't help but rub it, and then smoothed its fur.
"Wanying, where have you been? Come out and wash the vegetables."
The sound of shouting suddenly came, and Lu Wanying's heart skipped a beat.
"Dad, I'm here."
She quickly stuffed Pikachu into the cabinet, ran out, and went into the kitchen to find An Xinghe washing vegetables.
Lu Rong scolded her, "You're so ignorant! How can you let guests wash the dishes?"
"I...let me do it." Lu Wanying hurried forward, but was rejected by An Xinghe.
"You can serve the dishes for your uncle."
Lu Wanying was stunned for a moment and nodded.
At 5:15, all the dishes were served, including four meat dishes, two vegetable dishes and one soup.
Lu Rong opened the beer and was about to pour some for An Xinghe when he suddenly patted his head and said, "Look at my brain. You are still a high school student. It's not good to drink."
"It's okay, you can drink a little, I'm happy today."
"Okay, just drink a little."
After Lu Rong filled his glass, Lu Wanying looked at him with sparkling eyes and said timidly, "Dad, I want to drink too... drink a little."
Lu Rong looked at her, his face full of hesitation.
"Wanying, you......"
"Dad, I'm so happy today, and I want to toast Xinghe to thank him for giving me extra lessons." Lu Wanying was a little clever.
Lu Rong thought it made sense, so he poured her a glass.
An Xinghe saw through her little thoughts and glanced at her sideways, which made her feel guilty.
He wouldn't stop her, would he?
"Xinghe, as Wanying's father, I thank you." Lu Rong clinked glasses with him loudly, then suddenly raised his head and drank it all in one breath.
An Xinghe also finished drinking.
"Uncle Lu, you don't have to be so polite."
We are all family anyway.
Lu Rong chuckled, a gleam of light flashing across his eyes.
"It's my turn now, Xinghe, no, Teacher An, thank you for your guidance these days." Lu Wanying was really happy, her eyebrows were almost raised.
After toasting, Lu Rong said enthusiastically, "Eat, eat."
The alcohol gradually fermented in his body, and Lu Rong couldn't help but look forward to the future happily. "Xinghe will be admitted to university in a year and a half. A year later, Wanying will also follow you to the university in the same city. When you go to university, you can play as much as you want and fall in love as much as you want..."
Lu Wanying glanced at An Xinghe embarrassedly and coughed, "Dad, what are you talking about?"
Lu Rong suddenly realized what he had just said and said to An Xinghe apologetically, "Xinghe, don't misunderstand me. What I mean is...when you and Wanying each find someone you like, you can have a relationship if you want."
"It's okay." An Xinghe didn't blame him at all.
These words made Lu Rong more certain of his guess.
"It's always a matter of words, Xinghe, thank you. I know my daughter well. She can't concentrate on her studies. You have made an indelible contribution to her great progress." Lu Rong clinked glasses with An Xinghe again.
Lu Wanying nodded and kept agreeing.
After we finished eating and chatted for a while, it was already seven o'clock. It was already dark and the cold wind was howling outside.
"Uncle, I'll be leaving first."
"Be careful on the road."
Lu Wanying looked conflicted. She wanted to send him off but was afraid her father would notice something.
"Wanying, go and send Xinghe off." Lu Rong had already seen through her thoughts.
"good."
The two went downstairs.
"Xinghe, thank you for your gift. I like it very much." Lu Wanying's face was full of shyness.
"As long as you like it." His voice was particularly low in the narrow corridor.
"Have you... thought about which university you want to go to?" Lu Wanying suddenly felt a little nervous.
If he went to study abroad, she really wouldn't be able to go with him.
An Xinghe thought about it for a while, and he really hadn't thought of it before, so he suddenly asked her, "Which university do you want to go to?"
