Chapter 762: Chapter 760: Ended Up Being Despised
“Hey, Mianmian, good morning.”
“Xiao Mianmian, haven’t seen you for a few days, and you’ve become even prettier,” Mrs. Zhong Yuan praised Jiang Mianmian as she looked at her; she really liked this polite and sensible Little Prodigy.
“Thank you for the compliment, Auntie.” Jiang Mianmian’s eyes crinkled into a smile from the elder’s praise.
Several parents had met Jiang Mianmian before and knew that she was exceptionally good in both academics and character, so they felt very at ease letting their children go out to play with her.
However, when they saw Yu Cheng, who was standing behind Jiang Mianmian and not saying a word, they couldn’t help but marvel in their hearts.
This young man was tall and handsome with an extraordinary demeanor; just standing there, he emanated a stable and reliable presence, not seeming like someone who could come from an ordinary family.
No wonder they managed to get a car from the city to take them out to play, so they felt reassured.
“Mianmian, we’re troubling you and your brother this time,” Mr. Tian Wei said politely.
“Uncle, you’re too polite. It’s getting late, so shall we head off?” Jiang Mianmian asked.
Seeing that there was a driver following them and the reliable young Yu Cheng looking after them, the parents felt completely at ease, not knowing that they thought the adult-looking Yu Cheng was only fourteen this year.
A carful of children set off straight for the zoo with the driver.
There were many people taking holiday for the National Day, and this newly opened zoo had no shortage of visitors. Fortunately, unlike in later years, there weren’t so many private cars yet, so they quickly found a parking spot very close to the zoo entrance.
Jiang Mianmian and the others got out of the car, and seeing that the driver had no intention of leaving his seat, she leaned on the passenger-side window and asked, “Uncle, aren’t you coming down to play with us?”
The driver said with a kind smile, “I won’t go in. I’ve been to this zoo before. You kids have fun. I’ll rest in the car and wait for you.”
He certainly couldn’t just get chummy with someone else so rashly. Better not to try and win favor only to end up annoying them.
Thinking that the other party had driven for more than two hours, Jiang Mianmian nodded understandingly, “Then you rest well, Uncle. We’ll go in and have fun.”
“Mianmian, wait here for a while, I’ll go buy the tickets,” Yu Cheng said softly when he saw the ticket booth at the zoo’s entrance.
“Big Brother Yu, we have money, here’s the money,” Tian Wei said, hastily taking out the cash from her pocket to hand to Yu Cheng.
Zhong Yuan also began to take out money.
“No need. You are Mianmian’s friends; I’ll treat you to this outing,” Yu Cheng said and then strode with his long legs to the ticket booth.
“Mianmian, here’s the money for you then. Later you can give it to Big Brother Yu,” Tian Wei said, handing her money over to Jiang Mianmian.
Jiang Mianmian pushed the money back, “No need, Tian Wei, Zhong Yuan, it’s not much money. Just treat me to something delicious after school starts.”
Since Yu Cheng said no and he didn’t lack the money, she would just design a new set of clothes for him later.
“Okay, then we will buy you ice cream after school starts,” Tian Wei agreed, not insisting any further.
Zhong Yuan also put his money away.
It wasn’t long before Yu Cheng returned with several tickets and four ice creams in hand, passing them out to everyone.
“Thank you, Big Brother Yu,” Tian Wei said sweetly as she took the items. The most update n0vels are published on novel✦fire.net
“Thank you, Big Brother Yu,” Zhong Yuan also hurriedly expressed his thanks.
Yu Cheng: “It’s nothing, let’s go in.”
“Mhm mhm,” Tian Wei said, taking Jiang Mianmian by the hand, and headed to the zoo full of excitement.
