Chapter 2569

Seeing the two people coming back with the fruit basket, Duan Qianyang thought that they came back specially because they knew it was Uncle Duan’s birthday. He was a little happy, but also a little sour, thinking about his previous birthdays, every time he made an appointment with Duan Xu half a month in advance, he still refused to come.

Now it’s Uncle Duan’s birthday, and he didn’t even mention it, and the two came back.

Duan Qianyang couldn’t help but say sourly: "Did you come back specially?"

"You know today is my dad’s birthday?" Duan Xin was also very surprised.

When he was white, he thought about calling Duan Xu and asking him to come back, but his father stopped him.

Second Uncle Duan is not a person who likes to spend lavishly, nor does he like to be high-profile. In the past, there were only three of them on birthdays, and this time was no exception. In addition, he also knew how Duan Qianyang always rushed to attend birthdays, so he dared not expect much, thinking that his nephew Duan Xu would look up to him as an uncle.

So he didn't want to lose face.

But this doesn't mean that he really doesn't want them to come.

He is not a person who likes to laugh normally. This time, when he saw the two of them coming out, he took the initiative for the first time and took the fruit basket from Duan Xu's hand with his white-gloved hands. He said in a true and false tone: "Just come, no need for these empty words." Having

said that, he took the fruit basket back to the living room directly, and instructed Duan Xin beside him: "Ask the kitchen to add a few dishes."

This misunderstanding... is really a big deal.

Ruan Jiaojiao thought that they came here today not for her birthday at all, but for an excuse for the two of them to do this or that, and her face couldn't help but turn red.

Fortunately, the three men in the Duan family didn't know how to read minds. They thought that Ruan Jiaojiao's sudden blushing was due to the heat. It was almost June now, and the weather was slowly getting hotter, especially in the evening and night, when it would be particularly hot.

Second Uncle Duan was very happy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He just went to the kitchen and brought two glasses of water and said, "Come over next time. The weather is a bit hot. Drink some water first. We'll have dinner in a while."

Second Uncle Duan has never been a talkative person. During normal dinners, except for sending Duan Sishu out, he was like an invisible man.

But today he was particularly talkative.

Duan Qianyang could not help but look at his secretly boastful expression, and he felt even more uncomfortable. He coughed secretly, as if he had switched roles with Duan Ershu. He fell silent, picked up the newspaper in front of him and started reading, looking very busy.

"Wow, you guys are amazing. You even know that my dad likes pomegranates and oranges?" Duan Xin came out of the kitchen and sat down. He happened to see pomegranates and oranges in the fruit basket, and was immediately surprised again.

Hearing this, Duan Qianyang's newspaper shook, and a pair of green eyes peeked out from the edge of the newspaper and looked at Ruan Jiaojiao and Duan Xu.

"..." Ruan Jiaojiao.

Still feeling guilty.

Well, because pomegranates are big and beautiful in red, oranges are also beautiful and easy to preserve, so most fruit baskets now have these two.

She just picked them up when she bought them, so how could she know what Uncle Duan liked.

However, no matter how guilty she felt, she smiled on the surface: "Haha, as long as Uncle Duan likes it, I just didn't buy any serious gifts. Uncle Duan, don't think we are shabby."

"No, I'm thoughtful." Uncle Duan.
