Chapter 891 I Do Not Deserve This

Ning Ran was still in bed the following day when she heard someone singing in the living room.

It seemed like Dabao and Erbao were practicing unusually early that morning with the intention of waking their mother up.

When Ning Ran looked beside her, Nan Chen was looking at his phone on the bed.

Now, this is rare. He usually gets up pretty early. He should be back after his morning exercise by now.

She rolled over and sat on top of him. “Why are you still in bed, Mr. Chen?”

“Why are you still in bed?” Nan Chen asked in return.

“I usually wake up later than you do. You're the early bird,” Ning Ran replied.

“What do you think about these prayer beads?” he asked, passing his phone to her.

Since Ning Ran was no expert on prayer beads, she could not tell what materials were used just from pictures of the item. All she could gather was it looked dated.

“Are you helping me look for a present for Grandma?” she asked.

“Yes. I thought I should go for something simple since Grandma doesn't lack anything, but her family is coming, so it must be more thoughtful. It has to be a gift that shows Grandma's family how much we appreciate her, so I asked Jiang Zhe to look for something from an old collector. This string of beads is what he got in the end. Grandma is religious. I think she will like this.”

Ning Ran nodded at Nan Chen's suggestion. “These beads don't look unique to me, though. Are you sure it's a good choice?”

“Do you think there's nothing special about it?” Nan Chen asked back.

“Well, not that my naked eyes can tell,” Ning Ran replied, smiling.

“It was made of agarwood and presented to the empress of the Tang dynasty as a tribute by the nation of Pandera. The empress loved it and had always kept it with her. However, hundreds of years later, the item was lost overseas, but an old collector saw it and his hands on it.”
