5-year-old Chi Nai returned to ten years ago. At that time, her CEO father Baiyi Chi had just taken over the Chi Group, and her actress mother Yuan Yao Qin was still a third-tier actress with a bad...
Qin Yuanyao was slightly taken aback.
Should we go to Chi's cheese house?
Go to Chi Cheese and Chi Baiyi's house?
She didn't really want to go.
It wasn't for any other reason than that she was worried that if they were photographed, it wouldn't be good for either Chi Baiyi or for her.
"Don't you want to come to Sister Qin's house?" Qin Yuanyao asked via voice message.
"I went to Sister Qin's house last time. Sister Qin, you haven't been to my house yet, and you haven't seen my room. Let me tell you, my room is super beautiful, just like a princess's!"
Qin Yuanyao chuckled as she listened to Chi Nao's proud and boastful little voice.
She didn't want to spoil the little one's fun.
Let's go then.
Today is a workday, so Chi Baiyi is definitely at work and not at home.
If she left before Chi Baiyi went home, nothing should happen.
"Oh, I see. Then Sister Qin would really like to visit. Please give Sister Qin the address, and Sister Qin will come over in a bit." Qin Yuanyao's voice was gentle.
"Okay. Sister Qin, I live in Yushui Pavilion. Message me when you arrive and I'll come pick you up. It's hard to find here."
Qin Yuanyao searched for the specific address of Yushuitingyuan on her mobile phone map.
Yushui Pavilion Garden is known to almost everyone in the city.
This top-tier luxury residential area, situated in a prime location where every inch of land is incredibly valuable, is inhabited by the extremely wealthy and powerful. Living in Yushui Pavilion is a symbol of status.
Qin Yuanyao bought some fruit as a gift and then took a taxi there.
Unsurprisingly, she was stopped by security at the entrance of Yushui Pavilion.
Qin Yuanyao then sent Chi Naozi a voice message to tell her that she was already at the entrance of the community.
Chi Cheese came running quickly, holding a cheese stick in her hand.
"Sister Qin—" Chi Nao called out to her from afar and ran over like the wind.
"Uncle Security Guard, this is my..." Chi Nao tilted her little head up to introduce Qin Yuanyao to the security guard, but she got stuck after starting to say it and didn't know what to say next.
Ugh, so frustrating.
Another day where I can't openly introduce my mom.
She paused for a moment, then said, "This is my family. Next time she comes, you have to let her in."
The security guard's gossipy eyes darted over Qin Yuanyao a few times, wanting to know who Chi Naozi was, but he didn't dare to ask.
The most important thing when doing business here is not to pry into the residents' privacy.
"Okay," the security guard replied.
"Thank you, Uncle Security Guard. Here, this is for you." Chi Nao handed over the cheese stick from her hand, a sweet smile on her face.
security guard"……"
So there were bribes involved.
This little dumpling is so cute.
"Thank you," the security guard said, accepting the gift.
"You're welcome."
Chi Nao Niang skipped and hopped happily, holding Qin Yuan Yao's hand as they walked home.
"Sister Qin, the roads here are winding and complicated, and it's easy to get lost. I've gotten lost many times before. If you can't find my house next time, just send me a message and I'll guide you."
Qin Yuanyao smiled and said, "Okay."
But she thought to herself, who knows when the next time will be?
Chi Naozi brought Qin Yuanyao home, where Aunt Pang was waiting for them at the door.
When Aunt Pang saw Chi Nao rushing off to find Qin Yuanyao alone, she was quite worried about her. Although the neighborhood was very safe, she was still afraid something might happen to her.
Qin Yuanyao politely greeted Aunt Pang and gave her the fruit she had brought. Chi Naoqi then eagerly pulled Qin Yuanyao to her room.
Chi Nai's room was decorated with light blue wallpaper featuring a sun, clouds, a moon, and stars. A blue and white princess-themed bed stood against the wall, and various dolls were scattered throughout, creating a charming princess atmosphere.
"Sister Qin, isn't my room beautiful, like a princess's?" Chi Nao's little face was full of pride, and she even raised her eyebrows at her.
Qin Yuanyao was completely charmed by her adorable appearance. "Beautiful, super beautiful."
Chi Nai was even happier when she heard her mother's praise.
"Sister Qin, wait here for me for a moment, I'm going downstairs."
Before Qin Yuanyao could ask her what she was going to do down there, Chi Naozi ran down in a flash.
A moment later, she came up carrying a tray.
Qin Yuanyao assumed that Chi Cheese had brought out her favorite snacks. But when she saw what was on the tray, Qin Yuanyao was stunned.
The tray contained very little, with only a few scattered items that looked like cookies and nougat.
The reason I say "seems" is because the biscuit is dark and cannot be completely confirmed as a biscuit. The color of the nougat is also strange, so it cannot be 100% confirmed as nougat.
"What is this?" Qin Yuanyao asked.
“Daddy made cookies and nougat.” Chi Cheese placed the tray on her small table.
Did Chi Baiyi make it?
Qin Yuanyao was taken aback. "Your dad can make snacks?"
“He can’t.” Chi Cheese shook his head. “Look at the mess he made of the snacks. He’s just learning how to make snacks.”
Qin Yuanyao "..."
This is awful...
That's a very accurate description.
Qin Yuanyao assumed that Chi Baiyi had learned to make cookies and nougat because Chi Cheese liked them, so she didn't ask any further questions.
"Sister Qin, you have no idea how hard I've been working lately. Dad made these snacks into this awful shape and then made me try them. Even a lab rat wouldn't want to eat this stuff," Chi Nao complained, her face contorted with grievance.
Qin Yuanyao suppressed a laugh, "Why doesn't your father eat it himself?"
“Yes, that’s right.” Chi Nao felt like she had found an ally; her mother really understood her best.
“I asked my dad too. I asked him why he didn’t eat it himself. He said he did, and that he only let me eat it because it tasted okay, even though it didn’t look very appetizing. But I still refused to be a guinea pig. I told my dad that he would let me eat it next time if it looked really good.”
Chi Nai was really annoyed and distressed; her little face was all scrunched up.
But Qin Yuanyao found her adorable, serious expression so endearing that she wanted to steal a few kisses.
“You did the right thing, and you should be quite successful now. I’ll let you try it again,” Qin Yuanyao said.
Chi Cheese nodded vigorously.
As expected, her mother was her eternal ally.
"Sister Qin, can you teach Dad how to make snacks? Sister Qin, you're so amazing, you can definitely teach Dad how to do it."
"Is your father self-taught now?" Qin Yuanyao asked, pointing to the items on the tray.
"No, the chef is teaching him how to make snacks. But he's too slow and hasn't learned yet."
“Then I probably won’t be able to teach him either,” Qin Yuanyao said.
Qin Yuanyao's intention was that the chefs Chi Baiyi had hired must be top-notch, star-level chefs. If even such skilled chefs couldn't teach him, there was no way she, with only average cooking skills, could possibly teach him.
But Chi Cheese interpreted it as something else entirely.
