Chapter 628: Chapter 628: He Is Not the Same as Them
Zhang Guihua’s smile brightened even more when she heard that these children had come all the way from Capital City just for Mianmian’s birthday.
Sun Lixia also suppressed her excitement and squeezed to the front, saying with a beaming smile, “Oh, you kids are so thoughtful. Mianmian is so blessed to have such good friends like you.”
Zhang Guihua warmly called out, “Come in, kids, let’s not talk out here, come into the house.”
As soon as they entered, they immediately drew the attention of everyone in the room.
When Su Wanyu saw Yu Cheng leading several boys with extraordinary temperament into the house, she was momentarily surprised, but she quickly realized who they were and hurried over, happily saying, “Yu Cheng, you’re here, come in and sit down.”
“Aunt Wan, these are a few of my friends. Mianmian knows them too. They knew it was Mianmian’s birthday and came over with me to celebrate,” Yu Cheng briefly explained.
“Ah, good, I know you guys. Mianmian has mentioned that her brothers from Capital City have been very nice to her, often taking her out to play,” said Su Wanyu to the several young men.
Upon hearing this, Tang Lin and the others all smiled, pleased to know that little Mianmian had spoken to her mother about them.
“Come on, Buddy Yu, come and sit over here. Don’t be shy, make yourself at home, just like it’s your own house,” Jiang Changhai called to them warmly as they all stood by the door.
Once they moved into the living room, Jiang Changtao and Jiang Changhe, seated on the couch, stood up somewhat awkwardly, intending to offer their seats to them.
Old Lady Zhang, noticing how stylishly the young men were dressed and their remarkable bearing, also felt somewhat restrained, and the atmosphere in the room grew a bit still.
Yu Cheng and the others didn’t take a seat on the couch but instead sat on some stools nearby.
“Mianmian, this is your birthday gift. Open it and see if you like it,” Tang Lin was the first to take out a long, rectangular box from his backpack and hand it to Jiang Mianmian.
“Thank you, Brother Tang Lin,” Jiang Mianmian accepted the gift and opened it to find a set of foreign language tapes that were not available domestically.
“Brother Tang Lin, I really like it, thank you,” Jiang Mianmian thanked him again.
“I’m glad you like it,” Tang Lin said with a soft laugh.
“Xiao Mianmian, this is the gift I got for you,” Cheng An followed, handing Jiang Mianmian a box.
His gift was a set of foreign brand sportswear, soft to the touch and skin-friendly; very suitable for children.
It wasn’t necessary to open it in front of everyone.
Then, a step behind, Yu Cheng finally put his gift in Jiang Mianmian’s arms, then ruffled her little head, “Look at it later tonight.”
Jiang Mianmian nodded obediently, “Okay.”
After that, He Ping and Xu Sheng also presented their prepared gifts.
Jiang Mianmian put all these gifts in the bedroom, planning to open them later that evening.
Sun Lixia’s eyes turned red with envy as she watched Jiang Mianmian receive so many nice things.
Though she wasn’t sure of the worth of these gifts, she knew that these young men who were friends with Yu Cheng were definitely not ordinary. Whatever they gave, it was sure to be good.
“Come, have some drinks, eat some fruit and candy bits, don’t be shy, just feel like you’re at home,” Su Wanyu brought out the best candies for Yu Cheng and the others.
“Thank you, Aunt Wan,”
The three young men smiled politely, yet unpretentiously, showing a friendly closeness, while Yu Cheng was truly comfortable and at ease.
He was different from them; Little Lamb’s house even had a room for him…
