Out of respect for Sheng Ning’an, Sheng Yeli stayed until the three had finished eating before he left.
Before departing, he even took the initiative to pay the bill.
He also instructed the front desk to pack a small cake for each of the three to take back to the dorm.
Finally, he said to Sheng Ning’an, "I won’t see you off. Make your own way back to school and be safe on the road."
"Got it; no need for you to see us off." The school wasn’t far, and the three could simply walk back.
Watching him leave the restaurant, Tian Yu said dreamily, "Our Young Uncle is really handsome!"
Xue Xian nodded in agreement, "He’s also quite thoughtful, just not very talkative." Not just not very talkative — beyond asking them to sit down at the beginning, he hadn’t said a word to them the entire time.
But because Sheng Ning’an had given them a heads up in advance, they were somewhat prepared.
They knew he was quiet, but they didn’t realize he was that quiet.
"Alright, now that you’ve met him, my Young Uncle is just like that. Other than his research, he’s not interested in anything else, which is why at his age he still doesn’t have a girlfriend."
"But I think your Young Uncle is quite nice to you." Clearly, he didn’t like having meals with them, but he stayed until the end for An’an, and when he left, he even made sure the restaurant packed a cake for each of them.
But that was all out of respect for Sheng Ning’an.
"Yes!" Although Young Uncle didn’t like to interact with people, he had always been very patient with her since she was little.
She had always liked to stick by Young Uncle, and among all the family members, she spent the longest time by his side.
"I’m really envious of you, having a handsome boyfriend is one thing, but to have such good-looking people in the family and being surrounded by beautiful people every day, it must feel exceptionally blissful," said Tian Yu, envious just thinking about it.
Sheng Ning’an did indeed feel very blissful, although it had nothing to do with the looks of her family members.
The affection of her family was her greatest bliss.
"Alright, now that you have met him, my Young Uncle is a person with very clear strengths and weaknesses, which most people can’t handle. It’s wise for you two not to like him, liking him would be asking for trouble." Being family with him was fine, but as a boyfriend, he really wasn’t that great.
A man who only has a good-looking face but can’t provide any emotional value.
Being in a relationship with such a person would inevitably be very tough.
If it were up to her, she definitely wouldn’t choose such a boyfriend.
But who knows, maybe there are people who cold personality and think they can warm the other person.
She was worried her roommates might become infatuated with Young Uncle’s looks and risk giving it a try. If that happened, it would be awkward for her, stuck in the middle, not knowing who to support.
On the other hand, she also hoped that someone could appear who would be able to reach her Young Uncle’s heart.
That way, she and her grandma wouldn’t have to worry about her Young Uncle staying single all his life.
Loved ones naturally hope that those around them also receive love.
"Don’t worry, we know our limits."
"Young Uncle" hardly spoke a few words to them from start to finish, clearly showing he didn’t like them. They weren’t naive enough to think they would be the exception, thinking they could warm him up.
Having a meal together with him was already more than satisfying for them.
They dared not hope for more.
