Chapter 1687: Gift

"Rest assured, it's nothing."

Keenly noticing the worry on Anna's face, Li Ang immediately put away the emotions that surged up, skillfully put on a Director's face, and explained with a smile:

"You also know that brother's work is special, so my distraction is also more thorough than ordinary distraction... Sorry, there was something suddenly just now, so I didn't take care of this side."

Is that so?

Under the disguise of the Gold-level 【Performance Master】, the expression on Li Ang's face was natural without any flaws. After looking at his normal expression, Anna, who didn't know about anomalous objects, breathed a sigh of relief and walked over quickly to look at the pot.

"It's okay, only the bottom is burnt... Go out, go out!"

After checking the burnt stew, Anna took the apron hanging by the stove, tied it on, and then pushed Li Ang with both hands on his shoulders.

"You go sit on the sofa for a while, I'll handle the rest!"

"I can help you clean up..."

"You going out is helping me!"

After rolling her eyes at him, facing the boiling mist brother who couldn't even watch the pot or tutor homework, the thin girl exerted a little force on her hands, forcibly pushed Li Ang, who was looking back at every step, out of the kitchen, and then firmly closed the kitchen door.

And after the kitchen door was closed, under the strict order of sister Anna, Li Ang, who was sitting honestly on the sofa, couldn't help but close his eyes slightly, feeling his chest faintly stuffy.

The Black Goat is a bit abstract, but it is not a fool, and it will definitely not talk nonsense about such things, so what it said is 90% true. Melanie's future is probably really tied to the Abyss, this...

"Here! Brother! Here!"

Hearing the movement, Li Ang looked back and found that the door of the inner room was pulled open a small crack, and Melanie, who had already booked a seat in the Hundred Prisons of the Abyss, didn't know when she had drilled out.

Looking toward the kitchen, she found that sister Anna was facing the crowd, dealing with the pot with great majesty, and should have no time to pay attention to her side. The Great Demon Melanie couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, then closed the door, stretched out her small hand, and beckoned to Li Ang sneakily.

"Brother! You come, you come!"

"?"

After walking over with confusion, Li Ang was about to ask, but suddenly a bulging small wallet was stuffed into his hand.

After opening the small wallet embroidered with a pink pony and checking it, finding that it was stuffed with at least twenty gold wheels, Li Ang couldn't help but look at Melanie and asked with confusion:

"This is..."

"Activity funds."

After sniffing her red nose slightly, Melanie, who had just been beaten on the butt, pouted, turned her head away from Li Ang, and hummed:

"Although brother, you didn't save me just now, but who let you be my brother... This is the money I earned recently. You went out for several months and didn't come back. Sister-in-law is probably not very happy. You take this to buy her some gifts, maybe she won't be angry with you anymore."

"This... not necessarily."

Looking at the so-called activity funds handed over by Melanie, Li Ang, who was crying and laughing, stuffed the pink pony wallet back and explained:

"My situation with your sister-in-law is very special. We both have things to do. She won't be angry because I went on a business trip, and she doesn't need your support. Brother has money."

"It's strange that you have money!"

Looking at his brother who was still stubborn, Melanie curled her lips:

"I flipped through Anna's account book. Your salary is basically with her. If you didn't make any extra money, you would only have eight or nine silver wheels left. What good gifts can you buy?"

"Uh... although brother doesn't have much money, gifts are not given like this."

After touching Melanie's head, Li Ang took the opportunity to educate:

"Don't value the value of the gift too much, value the heart behind it. And your sister-in-law doesn't lack money or things, so the gifts I give her don't need to be too expensive. As long as the gifts brother chooses carefully, she should like them."

"Tsk, there are many excuses for poor men."

"???"

Sigh... I have to worry about this too...

Facing his brother who was good at everything but had been too poor in the past, leading to being stingy, Melanie sighed, then looked up at his small face and asked seriously:

"Brother, are you planning to give sister-in-law a bouquet of flowers? Roses or peonies?"

"???"

Li Ang couldn't help but wonder after hearing this.

"I do plan to give Veronica a bouquet of roses... but how did you know?"

"With the few coins left in your hand, what else can you give besides flowers?"

"..."

"It's true that sister-in-law will be happy no matter what you give, and even being able to think of giving roses is the result of brother's carefulness... but you are just stingy!"

"..."

"Take it, it's all listed for you."

After stuffing the bulging pink pony wallet back, she pointed to the interlayer hidden behind the pink pony, Melanie, the emotional expert, sighed:

"Inside is the list of gifts I helped you choose that sister-in-law might like. I don't know which one is suitable. You can choose it yourself when you go to find sister-in-law. It is estimated that seven or eight gold wheels are enough."

"But there are... in your wallet"

"The rest is for you to spend."

Looking at the collar of Li Ang's classic battle robe that had already been rubbed into balls, Melanie, who had long been dissatisfied with his consumption habits, reminded him earnestly:

"Brother, our family is no longer so short of money. Being too stingy is also a problem, you have to change it."

"..."

After noticing the point of Melanie's gaze, Li Ang looked at his classic battle robe that he had worn for several months and had bathed in countless divine blood, but the collar was still rubbed into balls, and couldn't help but smack his lips subconsciously.

Can't it still be worn? Let Anna help me shave the balls when she has time... hmm... forget it, Anna is already very busy, don't trouble her with everything, and I seem to be a bit stingy...

After deeply reflecting on his bad habits, Li Ang silently accepted the wallet supported by his sister and decided to accept his sister's kindness this time and be a little extravagant.

Seeing that his brother didn't continue to be stubborn, Melanie's small face also showed satisfaction.

I am amazing!

This time, not only can brother change his stingy habits, but after sister-in-law receives the gift, if she knows that I helped brother choose the gift, the investment amount next month is estimated to double! It's simply a win-win! I win twice...

"Melanie!"

After dealing with the trouble caused by Li Ang, Anna walked out of the kitchen holding the pot, and seeing Melanie, who was not making up homework in the room but had slipped out again, sister Anna couldn't help but stand up with willow eyebrows.

"What did I say just now? You..."

"I I... pot! Sister Anna! Put the pot down first!"

"..."

After finally pulling Anna, who rushed over, and finishing a dinner that was jumping up and down, Li Ang hesitated again and again, then went out early, took the list Melanie listed, and went to the department store to purchase, and then rushed to the Palace before the sky was completely dark.

"You're here."

Hearing the footsteps coming from the balcony, Veronica, who was busy and flustered behind the desk, raised her head, gave Li Ang a weary smile, and then reached out to point at the empty vase already placed on the shelf.

"Just put the flowers there... hmm? You didn't buy flowers?"
