Chapter 734 Sure Enough, Lao Ba’s Pain Was Not in Vain
Everyone looked forward, wondering what was inside the black box that could make the old man show such an indescribable expression.
"Xiao Qi, what did you bring out to scare grandpa like this?" After saying that, Sheng Bowen was about to move forward, but was directly stopped by the old man.
"etc."
Everyone else looked at the old man in confusion, isn't it just a gift? It has to be so mysterious.
But when he saw Mr. Sheng, he squatted down and took out the gift that everyone was curious about from the box, which was a fine wooden crutch.
When everyone saw it, they immediately sighed: "Tsk, I thought it was so big."
"Xiao Qi, you are fooling the old man too much." Sheng Bowen also laughed.
Mu Qiqi smiled and said nothing, but turned to look at Sheng Xiao.
Sheng Xiao pulled the little thing to him and rubbed her head vigorously.
Everyone thought it was just a crutch, but no one noticed that the old man's expression when he got the crutch almost made tears ooze from the corners of his eyes. He took the crutch and stroked it up and down, carefully observing the lines on it. The more he looked at it, the more he couldn't put it down.
"Grandpa?" Sheng Bowen called the old man, "Do you like it or not?"
"This crutch is made of rare dark wood, and the carvings on it are exactly the same as my old one. But do you know why I can't bear to throw away the old one? Your grandma bought it for me before she died. , I have been using it for so many years, and the carvings on it have been smoothed by me. Now that I have this new one, I can keep the one your grandma bought me."
After everyone heard what the old man said, they suddenly realized why the old man's expression was not intuitively happy, but complicated.
"You girl, how do you know this?"
"I don't know. I just saw that you always use this crutch. It's obviously old, but you still insist on it, so I took a guess. For someone as powerful as you to be able to use an old thing for so long, it shows its importance. Yes." Mu Qiqi replied, "I found the carvings on the Internet based on my memory, and then carved them accordingly."
"Are you praising me or belittling me? Also, did you carve this yourself?"
"When I bought it back, it was just a piece of wood. I also went to school to find many teachers and classmates who studied design industry. Otherwise, you would think that you could still buy an antique with the same carvings." Mu Qiqi rolled her eyes, "Old man ,satisfied?"
Mr. Sheng took the crutch and tried it on the ground, with a happy face on his face: "It's really good and comfortable."
"Sure enough, Lao Ba's pain is not in vain..." Sheng Bowen gave Mu Qiqi a thumbs up.
But Mu Qiqi didn't bother to talk to this person at all, and instead asked Sheng Xiao to take credit: "I did it, what reward do you give me?"
"Didn't you prepare a gift for me?" Sheng Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, exposing the secret that someone had revealed while drunk.
"How do you know?" Mu Qiqi looked confused, "Who told you?"
"You can only know the answer when you see the gift." Sheng Xiao whispered in her ear.
Did he prepare these things and was noticed by this man? It shouldn't be, her confidentiality was so good this time, unless this man could read minds.
…
The old man accepted such a gift, which was considered a slap in the heart by Mu Qiqi. Fortunately, he didn't separate the two people at the beginning, otherwise he wouldn't have known that this girl was such an aura. No wonder Lao Ba loves her like pearls.
"Third brother, hurry up, help me put the piece your grandma gave me in this box. I want to hang it in my bedroom."
Sheng Bowen smiled and helped the old man put away the badly worn crutches, and then asked the new housekeeper to store them in the room for him.
The old man was happy, and the group of people drove their respective cars towards the birthday banquet venue.
Although Sheng Laoliu is still not used to Mu Qiqi, he must admit that this Mu Qiqi is simply a spiritual beast raised by Sheng Laoba. She has no other abilities. Her mind-reading ability is top-notch. Even they These children and grandchildren who have been around the old man all year round do not know what the old man is thinking. However, Mu Qiqi can actually see it and come up with such a thoughtful gift. For this reason, he must admit defeat.
When the old man received other gifts, he only took one look at them and asked the housekeeper to put them in the room. Only this crutch, he took it directly. After getting in the car, his eyes never left the crutch.
Soon, the Sheng family arrived at the Dorsett Hotel where the birthday banquet was held.
Guests also went to the hotel garden one after another to congratulate Mr. Sheng on his birthday, but no one thought that in addition to the old man's birthday banquet, there would also be a wonderful drama about to be staged today.
…
At 9:30 in the morning, Sheng Kai also took Gu Ziling, who was dressed up, to Dorsett.
On such an important day, Mr. Sheng should not be ruthless and just focus on happiness. After all, there is a grandson who is suffering outside. He wants Mr. Sheng to remember this no matter when and where.
After getting in the car, Gu Ziling couldn't help but ask her husband sideways: "Are you sure that everything will be safe? We have been waiting for this day for too long. We can't make any mistakes. You must also know that grandpa has high hopes for you. If you continue to succeed The old man at home and Sheng Bowen can't deal with it, so your godfather's trust in you will definitely be greatly reduced."
"I'm more nervous about this plan than you are, so you don't have to worry." Sheng Kai replied while driving.
Although it was a day of revenge, Gu Ziling could not help but feel nervous.
Because she really wanted to see the Sheng family fail.
"I trust you."
Sheng Kai nodded. He spent so much thought and used so many light and dark lines just to prevent the plan from being seen through by Sheng Xiao.
But it turned out that he thought too highly of Sheng Xiao.
Sheng Xiao didn't pay any attention to what happened this time.
In this case, the scene later will only be more... exciting.
…
The time is already ten o'clock in the morning.
Sheng Bowen looked at the time on his watch, and then looked for Sheng Xiao in the crowd, because so far, there was no movement from Sheng Kai.
"Why are you so anxious?" Mu Qiqi glared at him while holding the champagne, "You look more excited than Sheng Kai?"
"Sheng Kai hasn't taken action for a long time. I'm afraid that something else will happen to him." Sheng Bowen was worried about this.
"Huh? You finally know that you have to prepare for a rainy day." Mu Qiqi smiled. The reason why Sheng Xiao is Sheng Xiao is because he will try his best to assume in his heart all possible situations and stop them.
No one can do it as well as he does.
Sheng Bowen didn't even have any awareness of this before, but it seems that being influenced by what he hears and sees is indeed useful.
