Chapter 328: Adults Want Everything

~8 min read 1,505 words

After hearing Xia Nuannuan's second birthday wish, all four elders looked gratified, feeling in their hearts that the child had really grown up.

"What about the third wish?"

Su Xia said out of the blue.

"The third..."

Xia Nuannuan subconsciously wanted to answer, then reacted in time, blushing, and looked at her mother with resentful little eyes.

"Mom, what are you doing? I won't say it!"

"Hahaha..."

Everyone was amused again and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Alright, cut the cake!"

The old man said.

"Dad, let's eat the cake after the meal, let's eat first."

Su Xia suggested.

"Alright!"

The old man nodded.

"Before eating, there are still gifts!"

Grandma said with a kind smile.

"Right, right, there are still gifts."

"Almost forgot."

The old man and Old Xia sang in harmony, deliberately acting funny.

"Hmph, Grandma is still the best."

Xia Nuannuan pretended to be angry, pouting her small mouth.

"Mine is in the car, wait a moment, I'll go get it."

Qin Tian stood up and said.

"Xiao Qin, go after eating!"

Su Xia persuaded with a smile.

"It's fine, you guys eat first, I'll be right back."

After Qin Tian said this, he walked out the door quickly.

In the living room, the four elders looked at Xia Nuannuan, whose anticipation was overflowing, and were all unable to laugh or cry.

Their gifts hadn't been presented yet, how did it feel like they were a step behind!

"Don't say, I'm really curious about what gift Xiao Qin prepared for our Nuannuan."

The old man said with a beaming smile.

"Come, Nuannuan, this is the gift Grandma prepared for you, even if it can't compare to Xiao Qin's, don't dislike it!"

Grandma took out a small gift box and handed it to her granddaughter, her face full of teasing smiles.

"Grandma, I wouldn't!"

Xia Nuannuan received the gift with a blush.

Afterward, the old man and Old Xia and his wife also presented the birthday gifts they had prepared one after another.

Of course, this also included a house they had bought earlier.

……

……

Before long, the door was knocked, and Qin Tian's voice came from outside.

"Nuannuan, help me open the door."

"Coming!"

Xia Nuannuan showed joy and ran over to open the door.

The scene that came into view made her freeze on the spot.

This gift... was really quite big!

Only to see Qin Tian holding a large cardboard box, which blocked his entire upper body, looking quite heavy.

Qin Tian poked his head out from behind the box and said with a hearty smile: "Make way!"

"Oh, oh!"

Only then did Xia Nuannuan react and hurriedly cleared the way.

Qin Tian carried the box into the house and came to the living room.

In the living room, the four elders looked at this scene, all of them dumbfounded.

"Xiao Qin, you brought such a big box, what's inside?"

The old man asked with a face full of confusion.

Qin Tian put the box down, grinned and said: "Let Nuannuan open it!"

After saying this, he turned his head to look at Xia Nuannuan beside him.

"Can I open it now?"

Xia Nuannuan's eyes brightened slightly, and she said with excitement.

She really couldn't wait to know what was inside; otherwise, no matter how delicious the food and cake were, she probably wouldn't be able to enjoy them properly.

"Of course!"

Qin Tian nodded with a smile.

"Nuannuan, come, here are the scissors."

Su Xia shouted with a face full of smiles.

Xia Nuannuan hurriedly walked over, took the scissors from her mother's hand, and then returned to the large cardboard box that was almost as tall as her shoulders.

The four elders also stood up curiously and gathered around.

"Then... then I'm really opening it!"

Xia Nuannuan looked up at Qin Tian, her eyes, which seemed to be able to speak, shining brightly.

"Open it!"

Qin Tian responded, a mysterious smile appearing on his face.

Xia Nuannuan didn't waste any more words, directly taking the scissors to cut the transparent tape sealing the middle of the box.

After the box opened to both sides, several people immediately fixed their eyes inside, all showing looks of astonishment.

Only to see that inside the large box, there were neatly stacked gift boxes of various sizes, all exquisitely packaged.

On the surface of the top two gift boxes, there were heart-shaped pink stickers, written with "Eighteen Years Old" and "Seventeen Years Old" respectively.

"Xiao Qin, you didn't prepare eighteen gifts, did you?"

Su Xia had already guessed what was below, and asked Qin Tian with a face full of surprise.

The others also realized, their inquiring gazes focused on Qin Tian.

Qin Tian nodded with a smile and said: "At first there were only a few options, and I was quite conflicted about what to give. Later, I suddenly thought that eighteen represents adulthood, and only children do multiple-choice questions. Adults naturally want everything, so I came up with this idea."

The four elders looked at each other, and for a time, they didn't know what to say.

"Only children do multiple-choice questions, this saying... is quite unique!"

Old Xia couldn't help but complain.

"Xiao Qin's gift is truly thoughtful."

The old man offered praise with a face full of smiles.

Grandma and Su Xia didn't say anything, but their faces were also beaming with smiles.

Being able to put so much effort into preparing a full eighteen gifts also showed Nuannuan's status in his heart, and they were naturally very happy.

"Nuannuan, I couldn't accompany you through the past seventeen birthdays, now I'm making up all the gifts for you. For the rest of our lives, I hope I can accompany you every year on your birthday."

Qin Tian looked at Xia Nuannuan with gentle eyes, and with a calm tone, said the most moving love words.

"Brother..."

Xia Nuannuan was so moved that her eyes turned red, and disregarding the elders nearby, she turned and threw herself into Qin Tian's embrace.

The four elders' smiles grew even wider, looking at the two children with eyes full of doting and gratification.

Even Old Xia, who was a daughter-obsessed father, felt no discomfort in his heart at this moment.

He truly felt that besides this kid in front of him, no one else could be worthy of his precious daughter.

This pig-headed boy, who was once in his eyes, had completely gained his approval at this moment.

He had worked hard for most of his life and accumulated a net worth of billions, for what?

Wasn't it for the happiness of his wife and daughter in the second half of their lives?

Therefore, he and his wife had decided long ago that even if they were to choose a son-in-law, they wouldn't look at family status, only two points.

First and most importantly, he must be wholeheartedly good to their precious daughter.

Only then would they look at character, appearance, and ability.

Now it seemed, Qin Tian perfectly matched these two points.

"Alright, don't cry, on such a happy day, you're making me feel embarrassed."

Qin Tian gently stroked her smooth hair and comforted her softly.

Xia Nuannuan hummed, then let go of him, lowering her small head with a blush, not daring to face the elders.

"Nuannuan, do you want to open a gift and see?"

Su Xia asked with a smile.

Xia Nuannuan showed hesitation, casting an inquiring look at Qin Tian.

"How about opening two at random? After eating the rest, you can open them slowly by yourself later."

Qin Tian suggested with a light laugh.

"Hmm, hmm!"

Xia Nuannuan nodded repeatedly in agreement, looking at the gift boxes inside, feeling a bit of choice paralysis.

"Nuannuan, I think since it's your eighteenth birthday, let's open this one first!"

Su Xia pointed to the gift box on top with the words "Eighteen Years Old" on it and suggested with a smile.

"Alright, let's open this one!"

Xia Nuannuan nodded and picked up the eighteen-year-old gift.

The gift box was about the size of a shoebox, with a layer of light blue gift wrapping paper on the outside, and a pink ribbon tied on it.

"Xiao Qin, this wouldn't be a pair of shoes, would it?"

Su Xia guessed with a smile.

Qin Tian gave a thumbs up to his future mother-in-law and nodded directly in admission: "It is indeed a pair of shoes, but that's only half the story."

"Is that so?"

Su Xia rubbed her chin with her fingers, staring at the gift box and pondering.

Xia Nuannuan carefully untied the ribbon, then opened the wrapping paper, and inside was indeed a shoebox.

The moment she opened the shoebox, a look of realization appeared on Su Xia's face.

Inside the shoebox was a pair of high heels, and they were crystal high heels, with the heels made of transparent crystal, and the front part also inlaid with countless sparkling little crystals. ===== CHAPTER 329 =====
