Chapter 1680 - Your Uncle Is Not an Ordinary Person

Nian Xi quickly took out the gift and handed it to her. Then she said earnestly, “This is a gift from your uncle.”

Xiao Pingguo’s Captain America helmet only revealed a pair of big, puzzled eyes. “When did I have an uncle? When did you have a hubby?”

Nian Xi was unhappy when she heard that, “Didn’t I tell you before? I had a boyfriend a long time ago. Although I’m not married yet, him becoming your uncle is something that will happen sooner or later. He just didn’t come back because he had some business overseas. This time, he’s finally coming back.”

Xiao Pingguo tilted his head innocently, “Didn’t you find an excuse to avoid me because you don’t have a boyfriend? Just like how my father always said that he would sell me and said that I was adopted. In fact, I know that adults love to lie to children.”

“…”

Nian Xi and Nian Junting’s lips twitched speechlessly at the same time.

Nian Xi was quite upset, “Xiao Pingguo, that’s not what you said before. You said that you believed me and that you would wait for your uncle to come back.”

Xiao Pingguo sighed, “My teacher said that lying too much will make you be convinced eventually. Auntie, don’t lie to yourself just because you’re not married. Don’t worry, even if you can’t get married in your life, I’ll take care of you when you’re old.”

Nian Xi felt helpless. The kids these days were like adults, “It’s not like that. I do have a boyfriend. I’m not lying. Your uncle is in Beijing now. He’ll come to see me in a few days. I’ll show him to you. If you don’t believe me, you can ask your father or your mother.”

Xiao Pingguo raised her head to look at Nian Junting, who nodded.

Xiao Pingguo finally believed her.

Nian Xi held Xiao Pingguo’s hand and walked out. As they walked, she said proudly, “Let me tell you, your uncle isn’t an ordinary person. Being handsome isn’t important. What’s important is that he’s a scientist…”

“Really…” before she could finish, Xiao Pingguo was so happy that he almost jumped up. “Is my uncle that good?”

In the children’s world, scientists were magical characters that were seen in books. They were rarely seen in real life. Everyone wanted to become a scientist, but it was as difficult as reaching the sky.

“Very powerful.” Nian Xi nodded. “The watch on your hand was given to you by your uncle. When he comes back, I’ll let you research something even more powerful for him.”

“That’s Great.” Xiao Pingguo was extremely excited. “Then can he transform my body and make me a Super Soldier, like Captain America?”

After saying that, he waved his shield.

Nian Xi choked. “Uh… your uncle is a physicist and astronomer. Transforming his body isn’t something he’s good at.”

Moreover, if he really wanted to, he would be the first to transform a policewoman like her.

“I see…” Xiao Pingguo thought for a moment. “Then… transform me into Iron Man. Can you help me get an armor like Iron Man’s? Don’t worry, I won’t hurt humans. I’ll try my best to save them.”

“…”

Nian Xi touched her forehead. “That kind of superhero only exists in sci-fi movies. That’s impossible.”

Xiao Pingguo’s bright eyes immediately dimmed, “Then my uncle isn’t that powerful.”

Nian Xi wanted to cry, but no tears came out. No one could do that.

Nian Junting impolitely punched Xiao Pingguo’s helmet, “You want to be a superhero with your physique? Real superheroes rely on their own physique. Look at Ye Wen and Huo Yuanjia, instead of thinking about all that nonsense.”
