Xi Guobang heard the words, helped Elder Xi open the back door, watched the old man sit inside, and got into the driver’s seat. He started the car and casually said, "You seem quite surprised."
He wasn’t asking; he used a statement tone.
"Yeah, your old man is indeed surprised. Although I’ve heard your Uncle Jiang praise his precious granddaughter often, seeing the young girl in person today was truly unexpected."
Elder Xi’s eyes were filled with envy: "I just thought your Uncle Jiang was bragging, after all, he praised his precious granddaughter to be unmatched. Considering his age, I didn’t interrupt,
but I didn’t expect your Uncle Jiang’s granddaughter to truly be as he claimed, looking like a Fairy Girl, and so outstanding that this old man envies her and wishes he had such a granddaughter himself!"
"Hearing you, didn’t you consider that Uncle Jiang’s granddaughter might be Comrade Kang Li?" Before Elder Xi could respond, Xi Guobang added, "Comrade Kang Li is a famous athlete in our country."
Elder Xi’s face heated up, he coughed uncomfortably twice, and said irritably, "Indeed, your old man didn’t expect it. How could I know your Uncle Jiang wasn’t just boasting? How could I know that the famous athlete, who always single-handedly wins several gold medals at international events, is Uncle Jiang’s precious granddaughter Kang Li?"
"I think you’re jealous of Uncle Jiang; hence you didn’t connect Uncle Jiang’s granddaughter with Comrade Kang Li." Xi Guobang suppressed a smile and said, "If I’m not mistaken, Uncle Jiang surely mentioned his granddaughter’s name to you."
Elder Xi’s face grew even hotter, he glared at Xi Guobang’s back: "Say what you will!" The old man is indeed jealous, so what?
"Can I say you’re angry out of embarrassment?"
Teased by his foolish son, Elder Xi snorted coldly and said, "Today you seem unusually talkative."
"Is Xi Chenyu being quiet today?"
Xi Guobang didn’t respond directly but casually tossed out this sentence.
"Face?"
"That depends on whether Xi Chenyu is smart enough; otherwise, your wish may not come true."
Xi Guobang curled his lips: "Moreover, you should see, aside from the young girl having two older brothers and sisters, her sibling brother alone is likely enough to elude Xi Chenyu with quite a bit of thinking."
"Ah!" Elder Xi sighed deeply: "Speaking of those two little guys, I recall your Uncle Jiang mentioning once that his precious granddaughter is triplets, extremely smart, mastering three languages before the age of three and already grasping elementary school first through third-grade knowledge..."
Xi Guobang listened as Elder Xi rambled about the triplets, becoming more and more astonished. When Elder Xi’s voice dropped off, his tone was full of disbelief: "Xi Chenyu is smart enough, but those three toddlers seem no less clever than Xi Chenyu, even perhaps surpassing him. How did Comrade Kang give birth, one delivery and three geniuses!"
"Your Uncle Jiang’s son-in-law’s surname is Luo, he is a researcher..." Elder Xi’s words were cut off by Xi Guobang: "Is Dad referring to that person?"
Upon hearing the surname "Luo," a name immediately popped into Xi Guobang’s mind.
