Shancai Rebirth: My Choice

Chapter 162 The Parrot Escaped from the Zoo

Friday soon arrived. Shanlai got up early, dressed up, and drove to the airport to pick up his parents.

Because their flight was in the evening, she estimated that they would arrive around this time, so she got up early and went to the airport.

As soon as she arrived at the airport, she saw Deng Heyao who came to pick her up with his family. Thinking of the last time he helped her at the Huo family, Shan Lai walked up to him and greeted him politely, "Second Uncle."

Deng Heyao had a serious look on his face, but when he saw Shanlai, he smiled slightly and said, "You're here."

Shan Lai took another look at the other people who came to pick him up at the airport, as well as some other people he didn't recognize. He guessed that they were also from the Deng He family, but he didn't know which branch of the family they were from.

After a while, Ximen and several other F4 members also came, which surprised her. There was nothing much to say about Lei and Ximen coming, but she was also surprised by Daomingsi and Meizuo coming.

"Why are you here so early?" Shan Lai asked.

Daoming Si seemed to be still a little sleepy. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and said, "Why are you asking? We played a little late last night and went to bed late. Not only did Lei and Ximen get up early this morning, but the key point is that they made such a loud noise when they got up."

Daomingsi gets angry when talking about this matter. These two people are typical people who wake up and don't let others sleep.

Ximen spread his hands innocently and said, "No, we were very quiet when we got up, so who knew you were awake?" There was a hint of innocence in his tone.

Daomingsi wanted to say something, but Meizuo covered his mouth.

Just now he observed that those who came to pick up Deng He and his wife were all well-known figures in the upper class of Country K. It would be bad if Asi said something wrong.

Looking at the people talking and laughing nearby, Deng Heyao frowned somewhat unhappily. These kids were heirs to a big family after all, so how could they be so unstable?

Feeling the gazes from Deng and Yao, Mei Zuo still greeted them politely.

Even though Daomingsi was noisy, he didn't say much at this time and just greeted Deng and Yao beside him.

Seeing that they were polite, the expressions on Deng and Yao's faces looked better.

But the moment he saw Lei, he smiled meaningfully and turned away.

His meaningful smile left them confused and they had no idea what it meant.

Shan Lai was even more puzzled, wondering if he had any grudge against his second uncle? This smile didn't look very friendly.

Shan Lai walked up to Lei and grabbed his hand. "You will be able to meet my parents later. Although my mother is not as gentle as Aunt Cheng, she is still easy to talk to. You met her last time."

"As for my father, he may be a little strict." Shan Lai coughed lightly and said nothing more.

When Ximen heard Shanlai say this, he immediately winked at Lei next to him and said, "It seems that meeting the parents may not be smooth for some people." After saying this, he quickly took a step back.

Lei just smiled helplessly and didn't say much.

This is something we have to face sooner or later, so the sooner we face it the better to avoid any unnecessary trouble later.

Daomingsi was looking at Shanlai from the side, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Misaku noticed his gaze and patted his shoulder calmly. Daomingsi seemed to react all of a sudden and turned away his gaze.

Before they could say a few words, the airport rang with the arrival information of the flight, and Shan Lai turned to look at Deng Heyao next to him.

Deng Heruilin stood behind Deng Heyao without saying a word. Only when the broadcast announced the arrival of the flight did he look up at Shanlai beside him. At this time, she should be the first one to greet them.

Shan Lai herself knew that she should be the first person to appear in front of her parents at this time, so she tidied her appearance and walked to the front to wait for them.

Deng and his wife returned on a special plane this time, so they were not worried that many passengers would rush out and they would not be found in the crowd.

The reporters nearby had already set up their cameras, waiting for Deng and his wife to come out so that they could be the first to rush over and interview them and get first-hand news.

Deng Heyin, as the head of the Deng He family, has not returned to Country K for more than ten years. It is said that this time it is because his daughter is about to come of age, so the couple will come back from Country M specially to hold a coming-of-age ceremony for their daughter.

Some reporters had almost put their cameras to Shanlai's face. If there hadn't been some security guards stopping them, some brave ones would have started asking Shanlai questions like what she thought about her parents' return to China.

As long as one person starts asking, others will naturally follow.

"Ms. Deng He, how do you feel about your parents returning to China?"

"Ms. Deng He, are you the future heir of the Deng He family?"

"Ms. Deng He, there are rumors that you already had a fiancé when you were in Country M. Will you get married after the coming-of-age ceremony?"

Shan Lai just smiled and didn't respond to their questions until a female reporter put the microphone almost in her face and asked her, "Ms. Deng He, what do you think about your parents returning to China? How do you feel now?" Shan Lai clenched her fists again and again, wishing she could throw the microphone in her face.

She smiled, thought for a moment and answered her question, "Miss, did you hear any strange noises?" Shan Lai asked in a puzzled manner, and even tilted his head to listen.

The reporter didn't understand what was going on and could only say he didn't hear it.

"It seems like a parrot from the zoo has escaped. I heard that this parrot can imitate human speech quite well." After saying this, Shan Lai smiled at the reporter, just for a moment, and then turned around with a blank expression.

This caused laughter from other reporters around.

The reporter who asked the question seemed a little embarrassed and could only smile stiffly.

"Ms. Deng He really likes to joke. How could there be a parrot at the airport?" She clenched the microphone tightly in her hand, and the expression on her face was even more intriguing. She probably didn't expect Shan Lai to mock her like this in front of the camera.

"You know I like to joke around, but you still use yourself to make me happy. This really makes it difficult for you." Shan Lai smiled appropriately and even looked at the reporter with sympathy.

Although they were a little behind, they still heard what Shanlai said to the reporter. Several of them couldn't help laughing, only Daomingsi was confused.

"Why would a parrot from the zoo come to the airport?"

"Really? Why didn't I see the staff catch the parrot and send it back to the zoo?" Daomingsi asked Ximen and Meizuo beside him seriously.

Simon's smile froze at the corners of his mouth, not knowing how to answer his question.
