Chapter 394: Chapter 394 Not Knowing Modesty At All Chapter 394: Chapter 394 Not Knowing Modesty At All Once everyone was seated, Yuan Jianing whispered to the proud Yuan Weihan with a smile, “Uncle, how was it? I didn’t embarrass you, did I?”
Yuan Weihan replied, “You really made your uncle proud. After the performance ends, I’ll take you three out for a al. Order whatever you want.”
Yuan Jianing nudged Luo Qiao with her elbow, “Did you hear that? We can order anything later.”
Luo Qiao laughed and said, “Look how excited you are. Let’s stop talking now, so we don’t disturb others watching the show.”
Sitting on the other side, Zhou Wanfeng also gave his daughter a thumbs-up: “Not bad.”
Many people around them were whispering to each other, all talking about the three girls who had just left the stage. Many were rubbing their hands together and itching to give it a try themselves.
Unfortunately, after the performance ended, Yuan Weihan and Zhou Wanfeng didn’t give anyone the chance to co up and chat; they whisked the girls away.
The five of them went to a state-owned restaurant not far from the military base and ordered a few dishes. Zhou Wanfeng said, “Today’s spontaneous performance was really beyond my expectations. You all truly did well. Here, let’s use water in place of wine to celebrate your outstanding performance today.”
Yuan Weihan also said with a smile, “The three of you really have a perfect chemistry together, not any worse than the professional perforrs from the arts troupe.”
Yuan Jianing laughed and said, “Of course.”
Yuan Weihan tapped Yuan Jianing on the forehead, “You don’t know how to be modest at all.”
Yuan Jianing rubbed her forehead and replied, “But you were just praising us, Uncle. I’m just telling it like it is.”
They all broke into laughter.
The dishes had just been served when so people from the military ca over to greet them, all endlessly praising the performance of the three young ladies and subtly inquiring about their identities.
Since there were no private rooms, even though they chose the most secluded spot, their al was interrupted multiple tis. By the ti they finished eating, it was already after seven o’clock.
Yuan Jianing had wanted to have Luo Qiao co back to the courtyard with her, but Luo Qiao said she was going back to her grandparents, as she had already made plans with them.
Yuan Jianing understood that the New Year was approaching. Although she was reluctant, she accepted Luo Qiao’s decision and said, “Then you have to co ho early on the second day of the New Year.”
Hearing Yuan Jianing say ‘co ho early’, Luo Qiao burst into laughter: “Okay, I’ll co back early.”
After saying goodbye to Zhou Xiaomin and exchanging contact information, they parted ways.
Yuan Weihan said, “Wait a mont; I’ll have soone send you back.”
Yuan Jianing replied, “Uncle, we can just take the shuttle bus back. Isn’t there one at half-past seven?”
Luo Qiao also said, “Dad, Jianing and I can just take the shuttle bus. There were many people when we ca, and they will probably take that bus too. You can just make a phone call to our ho later and have Brother Three co to the station to pick up Sister Jianing. I’ll make sure she gets on the bus before I leave.”
Yuan Weihan wanted to say sothing else, but Yuan Jianing said, “Don’t worry, Uncle. With so many people around, and besides, I’ve had so training. Though I’m not as formidable as Qiaoqiao, I can take care of myself.”
Seeing his niece and daughter insist, Yuan Weihan had to concede, “Then I’ll take you to the bus.”
When the three of them arrived, there were already quite a few people on the bus, the sa one they had taken to co earlier. The ticket seller imdiately recognized the two and said with a smile, “You’re in luck, there are just two seats left.”
Without further ado, Yuan Weihan paid for their tickets and gave a few words of caution before stepping down from the bus.
Suddenly rembering sothing, he ca back and asked, “Qiaoqiao, aren’t you going shopping tomorrow? Did you decide where to et up?”
Luo Qiao opened her cross-body bag, took out a pen, and wrote down a string of numbers on the back of a ticket stub, “Dad, give this number to Mom. It’s the shared phone number at Grandpa and Grandma’s. If there’s any ergency, they can call this number.”
Yuan Weihan asked, “Do you rember the phone number for ho?”
Luo Qiao nodded and said, “I rember. Don’t worry, I’ve got everyone’s numbers morized.”
Finally, Yuan Weihan stepped down from the bus and watched it drive off before he turned and left the station with a smile on his face, walking toward the military base entrance.
Yuan Jianing said, “Tomorrow, I’ll join in the fun with you.”
Luo Qiao responded with a laugh, “Great, let’s go together.”
