Chapter 1475: Something’s About to Happen

In previous years she didn’t even need to remind him, there would absolutely be one. Now even with the reminder, there was nothing.

Feng Yi was quite optimistic though. She looked at him and said with a cheerful smile, "But it’s New Year now, I’ll be magnanimous and not mind. So... call me ’sister’, and we’ll count that as your New Year’s gift."

Ning Yan stared at her, thin lips parting slightly. "I’ll give you a New Year’s gift. Come in—"

Heavy footsteps sounded from outside. A robot over two meters tall walked in and stopped in front of the two of them.

Ning Yan grabbed Feng Yi’s hand and input all ten of her fingerprints on the robot’s panel.

Ning Yan looked at her, a bit ill at ease. "This robot, Bo Bo, is for you."

He had never given a New Year’s gift before, and couldn’t think of anything to give.

Should he do it like her Future dad and hand over a huge red envelope?

Unfortunately, as a researcher he always took research funding very seriously, and he simply couldn’t give the kind of huge red envelope her father did.

All he had was this robot, the masterpiece he had created over the past few years—an infinitely intelligent robot. If you could ignore that cold skin, it would be an extremely beautiful human being.

Feng Yi was stunned!

Ever since she was little she’d known this robot Bo Bo was hers, that it’d grown up keeping her company. But she’d always thought Ning Yan had made it for her mom...

So it turns out it was a New Year’s gift for her?

"You don’t like it?" Ning Yan frowned.

Feng Yi wrapped her arms around Bo Bo’s and said immediately, "I like it! I like it the most."

How could she not like a robot that grew up with her from childhood?

When she was little she could go out with a robot in tow, and it was the equivalent of a high‑level bodyguard. At school she was always the one everyone envied.

A dad who’s the president of Ao Shi Group, a mom who’s a big shot in the entertainment industry and also a CEO, a brother who does research and is always held up as "other people’s kid", plus an Uncle who keeps showing up at various academic forums.

Hearing her, Ning Yan frowned again. He pressed his lips together and turned his head back to the telescope, but the meteor shower had already ended.

This New Year was different from all the others; it didn’t seem as cold as before. There was a bit more festivity, and it even made him... slowly develop a trace of anticipation for the Future.

Having family really was different.

Ning Yan turned his head slightly to glance at the girl who looked two or three years older than him, then suddenly smiled. Soundlessly, his lips formed the word: "Sister."

Feng Yi was beside him fiddling with the telescopes too. Some of them had been moved over from Professor Tang Lide’s, and some belonged to the Feng Family themselves.

She casually bent over to look into the telescope in front of her. It wasn’t an astronomical telescope, but it was much better than the ones on the market—you could see clearly even at night, and it could see over a thousand meters away.

"Uh... why do I see someone coming toward our villa? And it’s not just one person, it’s... it’s a whole group!" Feng Yi gave a random glance, and her gaze gradually grew solemn.

The more she looked, the more her scalp tingled. Each of those figures seemed like professionally trained, combat‑level bodyguards.

Feng Yi thought about how it was New Year’s Eve today, and the number of bodyguards left at home was already small...

Feng Yi turned to look at Ning Yan, her expression a bit ugly as she said, "I think my great‑grandparents went out to burn incense at the temple, and they took a whole team of bodyguards with them... right?"

Ning Yan looked at Feng Yi’s pale face and couldn’t help asking, "What’s wrong?"

"Something’s about to happen. I need to go tell my dad and mom!"
