Chapter 116 Casual Chat Between an Adult and a Child
Instead of going back to the tricycle to hand out spoons, Tangtang clung to Su Qingxue like a clingy little tail.
"Pretty auntie, are you tired from work today?"
Tangtang stretched out her two little hands and placed them on Su Qingxue's knees, tilting her cute little chubby face up with her big eyes full of concern: "Daddy said that adults work very hard and have to sit in front of the computer for a long, long time."
Hearing the little girl's thoughtful words, a hint of tenderness appeared in Su Qingxue's eyes.
She reached out and gently took Tangtang's two little hands in hers.
"Auntie isn't tired."
Su Qingxue smiled and said, "Although work is a bit busy, seeing Tangtang makes Auntie feel that it's not hard at all."
"hey-hey……"
Tangtang smiled happily, revealing two cute little tiger teeth, and nuzzled her head affectionately against Su Qingxue's arm. "Tangtang is happy to see Auntie too!"
Not far away, Wang Hai was packing several takeout boxes with the soup.
He turned his head and saw a group of diners at the table next to the stall finish eating and leave.
Wang Hai immediately grabbed a rag and went over to wipe the folding table clean.
"President Su, Secretary Chen!"
Wang Hai turned to look at Su Qingxue sitting on the stool and asked with a smile, "I've served both of these soups, and Brother Chen's fried rice will be ready soon."
I see you two are having a pleasant chat with Tangtang. There's a table here that's empty. Would you like to take your food upstairs, or just grab a bite here while it's hot?
Su Qingxue stopped talking to Tangtang and glanced at the folding table that was wiped clean.
"I'm not taking it to go."
Su Qingxue said, "Let's sit here and eat."
"Alright! This is the best place to eat!"
Wang Hai responded and immediately pulled out two folding chairs: "Please come and sit down!"
Su Qingxue took Tangtang's hand, stood up from the small stool, and walked to the folding table to sit down.
Secretary Chen followed her over and sat down opposite her.
Tangtang picked up her own little stool and followed her over, sitting down next to Su Qingxue with her chin resting on her hands, obediently keeping her company.
Wang Hai turned around and walked to the stall, bringing over the two bowls of soup he had just served.
"Mr. Su, this is your daily soup. It was just served from the thermos and is perfect for warming your stomach."
Wang Hai placed the soup bowl in front of Su Qingxue, and then placed another bowl of soup in front of Secretary Chen. "Secretary Chen, this is your chilled mung bean soup."
Please enjoy your meal!
Almost at the same time that the soup was served.
A crisp "clang" came from the stove.
Lin Chen tapped the iron ladle in his hand against the edge of the pot and then turned off the gas valve.
"Two servings of fried rice with minced meat, ready."
Lin Chen called out and directly divided the fried rice in the pot into two takeout boxes.
"They're here!"
Wang Hai responded and strode back to the stove.
He took two boxes of freshly cooked fried rice and a small box of chilled crispy radish, and placed them on Su Qingxue's table.
"President Su, Secretary Chen, your fried rice is ready!"
This radish is good for cutting through the richness. Call me anytime if you need anything!
After greeting everyone, Wang Hai turned around and went back to attend to the other customers in line.
Fold the table in front.
Su Qingxue opened the lid of the takeout box, and a delicious aroma of roasted meat wafted out.
She didn't rush to eat the fried rice, but instead picked up the bowl of soup first.
She blew on it gently, then lowered her head slightly and took a small sip.
The slight frown on his brow was soothed and relaxed by the comforting soup.
Su Qingxue exhaled, then picked up a spoon, scooped up a mouthful of fried rice, and put it in her mouth.
Opposite the folding table.
Secretary Chen also picked up the bowl of chilled mung bean soup and took a big gulp.
"Boss Lin's skills are truly amazing."
Secretary Chen put down the soup bowl. "This chilled mung bean soup is made with more care than any high-end beverage shop on the market."
Sweet but not cloying, with an excellent sandy texture.
Su Qingxue nodded slightly in agreement.
"Pretty auntie, is the fried rice Daddy made delicious?"
Sitting next to her, Tangtang watched Su Qingxue take a bite of her food, then immediately leaned closer and asked with expectant eyes.
Su Qingxue swallowed the fried rice in her mouth, took out a tissue to wipe the corner of her mouth, and turned to look at Tangtang.
"It's delicious."
Su Qingxue's voice was gentle, "Tangtang's father is a very skilled chef."
Hearing the pretty aunt praise her father made Tangtang even happier than if she had eaten candy herself.
The little girl puffed out her chest, her big eyes sparkling: "Of course!"
My dad is the most amazing dad in the world!
He can not only make fried rice, but also sweet and sour windmill-shaped radishes!
"Really? What's Tangtang's favorite dish when her dad cooks at home?"
While eating her fried rice, Su Qingxue continued the conversation, following the little girl's lead.
"Tangtang loves her dad's sweet and sour pork ribs the most!"
There's also steamed egg custard!
Tangtang counted earnestly on her chubby little fingers: "Daddy's ribs are so fragrant and sweet!"
Tangtang can eat a whole bowl of rice every time!
"Tangtang is such a good girl, she should eat more so she can grow taller."
Looking at the little girl's innocent and carefree appearance, Su Qingxue's smile grew wider and wider.
"Yes, yes! Teacher Liu also said that Tangtang has grown taller recently!"
Tangtang seemed to have completely opened up, and began to vividly share the fun things that happened in kindergarten with Su Qingxue: "Pretty auntie, today we played with building blocks at kindergarten, and I even built a very, very tall castle!"
Also, at lunchtime today, Mingming picked out all the greens, and Teacher Liu said that picky eaters aren't good children. But Tangtang didn't pick at all and ate all the greens in her bowl!
Su Qingxue stopped eating and listened attentively.
For these childlike, even somewhat trivial, little things, this usually decisive and icy female CEO showed astonishing patience.
She would respond to Tangtang from time to time, and occasionally praise her.
In front of the stove not far away.
Lin Chen was still busy.
As Lin Chen twirled the iron spoon in his hand, he slightly turned his head and glanced at the two people, one big and one small, sitting at the folding table.
Looking at her daughter's happy face.
A smile involuntarily appeared on Lin Chen's face.
He looked away and focused his attention back on the stove.
