Chapter 576 Little Mianmian, the two exchanging gifts
"what are you doing?"

Ning Weiquan's expression darkened, and he glared at Ning Anrou with an imposing gaze.

However, Ning Anrou was not afraid of him at all at this moment.

She even stared at him with a look that said, "Old man, shouldn't you tell me what happened?"

Although she had already sent her people to investigate.

But those in high positions within the group didn't want her to know about it.

There were too many obstacles and too little time, so all she knew so far was that their spaceship had encountered a wormhole and that news of other personnel being injured had been sent back.

However, there was no clear report on what happened after the spacecraft encountered the wormhole, or the extent of injuries to the personnel.

This secretive approach, which seemed to keep her in the dark, made Ning Anrou very uneasy, and her bad premonition gradually deepened.

A fleeting look of sorrow crossed Ning Weiquan's eyes, and then he turned his head away as if by accident, avoiding further eye contact with Ning Anrou.

Then he met Bai Mianmian's crystal-clear eyes.

Ning Weiquan: "..."

"..." Bai Mianmian did not expect that she would meet Ning Weiquan's gaze as soon as she looked over because of Ning Anrou's words.

Don't panic, just smile at him. As the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face.

Ning Weiquan was indeed too embarrassed to show Bai Mianmian a bad attitude.

"Hey, your name is Mianmian, right?" Ning Weiquan's face suddenly lit up with a hearty smile. He pointed at Ning Anrou and said, "I'm Xiaorou's father, and also Xiaoci's maternal uncle. You call me maternal uncle, so can I call you Xiaomianmian?"

Little words...

Bai Mianmian's smile deepened.

She now understood why Ning Anrou called Jiang Ci "Little Ci Ci"—it was because she followed Ning Weiquan's example.

But when she heard him say "Little Mianmian," the smile on her face faltered.

After a half-second pause, Bai Mianmian looked at Ning Weiquan with a polite smile and said, "You can call me Mianmian."

The conversation was originally supposed to end there, but under Ning Weiquan's expectant gaze, Bai Mianmian couldn't help but add, "Uncle."

"Ah~" Ning Weiquan was satisfied. He seemed not to notice Bai Mianmian's unease, and his smile became even brighter.

He felt that Bai Mianmian's address of "Uncle" was more pleasant to hear than when Jiang Ci first called him that when he was a child.

“Come on, Xiao Cici walked too fast just now and didn’t introduce us to each other. Now let’s see what Uncle gave Xiao Mianmian as a gift.”

Ning Weiquan, trying to change the subject, took a box from his spatial storage and handed it to Bai Mianmian.

Upon hearing the name "Xiao Mianmian" again, Bai Mianmian couldn't help but twitch her lips.

Ning Anrou was a little annoyed when she didn't get a reply from Ning Weiquan and saw him turn around and start chatting with Bai Mianmian.

However, after seeing that Ning Weiquan's smile was genuine, her unease lessened considerably.

The old man can still laugh so easily, so what happened this time must not be serious.

Then she remembered that there were still people from the Second Legion here, and that the accident might involve secrets of the legion, so she decided to put the topic aside for now and ask about it again when she got back.

Since he's already awake, she'll eventually find out what happened from him!

After successfully calming herself down, Ning Anrou heard Ning Weiquan call Bai Mianmian "Little Mianmian".

Instantly, her teasing gaze fell on Bai Mianmian's face, and a silent smile appeared on her own.

At this moment, Bai Mianmian could tell from Ning Weiquan's expression that he would not easily change his mind.

Thinking about how I have a "Little Ci Ci" ahead of me, it doesn't seem so unacceptable for him to call me "Little Mian Mian".

So, Bai Mianmian didn't continue correcting Ning Weiquan's words, and lowered her eyes to look at the box he handed her. The box wasn't very big, about the length of two palms, but Bai Mianmian was a little unsure whether she should accept it.

Because that box was very similar to the box Jiang Ci had used to store the crystal cores.

If it really does contain crystal cores as she suspects, then there must be quite a lot of them.

Even though it contains only B-grade crystal cores, this gift is still quite valuable.

Seeing that Bai Mianmian didn't intend to accept the box, Ning Anrou couldn't help but persuade her, "Mianmian, just accept it without worry. You can't just call him 'Uncle' for nothing. Besides, you shouldn't refuse something from the old man for free."

Ning Weiquan really wanted to glare at Ning Anrou. What kind of words were those?! They were awful.

But seeing that she was indeed helping him persuade Bai Mianmian to accept the gift, he not only refrained from glaring at her, but also chimed in with a smile, "Yes, little Mianmian, you don't need to be so polite with your uncle."

Seeing that the two of them had said that, Bai Mianmian could only take the box and thank them with a smile, saying, "Thank you for the gift, Uncle."

"Hey, if you ever want to talk to your uncle, he'll definitely find it for you. By the way, let's add each other as friends on our devices." Ning Weiquan said, activating his device's screen to add friends.

Ning Anrou rolled her eyes secretly, as if she couldn't bear to watch.

Faced with Ning Weiquan's enthusiasm, Bai Mianmian could only add him as a friend on her mobile device.

After storing the box Ning Weiquan gave her directly into her spatial storage, Bai Mianmian thought for a moment and took out a can of black tea.

"This is tea. Uncle can use it to make tea when he's tired from work." Bai Mianmian handed a 1-pound tea canister to Ning Weiquan.

Ning Weiquan didn't know what tea was, but it was the first thing Bai Mianmian had ever given him, and he couldn't refuse.

"Alright, alright, little Mianmian is so thoughtful. Then your uncle will accept it."

Ning Anrou wanted to roll her eyes at Ning Weiquan again. Was he implying that she wasn't considerate enough?

However, upon seeing the tea canister, she couldn't help but frown slightly.

She had drunk the water infused with those tea leaves.

Although she prefers milk tea, she knows that tea brewed with tea leaves is more effective at reducing mental pollution levels than milk tea.

Ning Anrou glanced at the tea canister, then at the space button ring on Bai Mianmian's finger.

I wonder what level of crystal core the old man just gave Mianmian?

If the level is too low, even a whole box of crystal cores is not as valuable as the jar of tea that Mianmian gave.

Just as Ning Anrou was considering whether or not to secretly contact Ning Weiquan.

Ning Weiquan, who had already stored the tea canister in his spatial storage, seemed to suddenly remember something and started taking things out of the storage again.

He was seen taking out basket after basket of fruit, each basket weighing about ten pounds, and he took out seven or eight baskets in total.

These fruits included pears and strawberries that Bai Mianmian had eaten before, as well as mangoes and oranges that she had eaten in interstellar space.

"I almost forgot, these fruits are also for Xiaomianmian. There aren't many, so please don't mind, Xiaomianmian." Ning Weiquan pointed to the fruit baskets with a hearty smile.

Ning Anrou: "..."

She'd never received fruit like this from an old man before! It's incredibly extravagant!
Bai Mianmian: "..."

After a moment of silence, Bai Mianmian put all the fruit on the table into her spatial storage.

Then, she took out ten watermelons and ten papayas that she had collected in the past few days and gave them to Ning Weiquan, and introduced him to how to eat them.

Since Bai Mianmian had accepted all his fruit without saying anything, Ning Weiquan happily put the watermelon and papaya into his spatial storage.

Bai Mianmian was a little afraid that Ning Weiquan would take out something else, so she quickly took out a teapot and teacups from her spatial storage.

It's unclear whether Ning Weiquan ran out of things to give or was distracted by Bai Mianmian's actions, but he didn't take out anything else.

He smiled as he watched Bai Mianmian brew tea, but his cheerful expression froze the moment the aroma of black tea filled the air.
