In the kitchen, the missing person, Little Dumpling, reappears.

Chaochao tiptoed over the edge of the counter, watching Aunt Ning prepare the ingredients with curiosity, her starry eyes blinking.

"Auntie, do you have all those vegetables?"

Aunt Ning was rinsing the shovel when she heard the noise. She looked at the little dumpling and smiled kindly, "Everything is there, everything is there. Don't worry, Chaochao."

"Broccoli, boiled sliced ​​pork, braised pork, hot and sour shredded potatoes—we have them all," Aunt Ning said with a smile.

As soon as Chaochao woke up from her afternoon nap, Aunt Ning made a special request, and as soon as she saw that there were no ingredients at home, she immediately asked someone to go and buy them.

Of course, there were some dish names that Chaochao didn't know, so she had to use gestures and Aunt Ning to guess.

"Okay...okay." Asahi, who was leaning against the edge of the pool, was practically drooling.

Aunt Ning: "Oh dear, Chaochao, just hang in there a little longer, I'll be done cooking soon."

Unable to wait for dinner, Chaochao returned to the living room and resumed her usual routine for the day—

Facing Huo Qin, he read Jingjing's letter for the seventeenth time.

Jiang Chi: "..."

He wondered, are all children this energetic?

If Aunt Ning says it's almost healed, then it really is almost healed.

Just as Chaochao was enjoying herself, she suddenly saw Aunt Ning bring out all the dishes. She immediately perked up and, without waiting for Huo Qin's feedback, ran into the kitchen, saying, "I'll do it! I'll do it! I'll serve the rice!"

Huo Qin, who had just opened his mouth to speak, silently swallowed his words back.

"Daddy, Brother Jingcheng, Brother Yuci, time to eat!"

The little dumpling placed the last bowl of rice on the table, then scurried up to a stool, urging everyone to come quickly.

The aroma of all the dishes lingered around her nose.

Chaochao was so hungry that she swallowed her saliva frantically.

Once everyone was seated, the traditional Huo family mealtime began—

There were a lot of people today, and Chaochao's chopsticks were especially busy.

"This is Daddy's..." braised pork belly~

"This is my brother's..." broccoli~

"This is Brother Jingcheng's..." boiled pork slices~

"These are Yu Ci's..." long shredded potatoes~

After serving food to all four of them, Chaochao finally excitedly picked up a shrimp.

"This belongs to Chaochao!"

I love shrimp!

The little guy squinted his eyes and chewed with a happy expression.

Huo Qin and Xie Jingcheng remained calm and ate the food that Xiao Tuanzi had picked up.

After all, we've eaten together a lot.

Jiang Chi had been fed stir-fried broccoli by the little dumpling before, but he had never told her.

He eats broccoli mainly to maintain the body fat percentage of celebrities.

Not because he loves to eat it.

Jiang Chi took a bite.

But now, I think I've started to like it.

Yu Ci stared blankly at the shredded potatoes in the bowl. After several seconds, she picked up a shredded potato, opened her mouth, and slowly chewed it, her lowered eyes flickering with uncertainty.

He remembered that he had only mentioned it casually over the phone.

It happened when we were talking about Peppa Pig's favorite food.

Unexpectedly... Chaochao remembered it.

Of course, in reality, Chaochao couldn't possibly remember everything just by thinking about it. But as soon as the phone call ended, Chaochao quickly started scribbling and writing it down in her little notebook.

[Brother Yu Ci likes to eat shredded potatoes (*^▽^*)]

...

Yu Ci looked up at the little dumpling across from her, who was happily eating rice. Her eyelids trembled slightly, and the dark and gloomy feeling in her heart dissipated.

After dinner, Xie Jingcheng followed Huo Qin upstairs to the study to discuss the collaborative project between the Huo and Xie families. Jiang Chi suddenly had an idea for his new album and rushed to the studio to create music after finishing his meal.

Before leaving, he patted the little dumpling's head.

He had initially wanted to suggest staying away from those two people, but then he thought that would make him seem petty, so he held back.

She only said, "Wait for your brother to come back, okay?"

Considering the time factor, he immediately added, "If I get back late, don't wait up, just go to sleep."

Chaochao nodded obediently: "Okay."

Although I still had some doubts, I hadn't said I wasn't going to sleep.

After Jiang Chi left, Chaochao, with a full belly, stood in front of a row of small balloons, selecting her favorite little bee and leading it for a stroll in the garden.

Their leisurely demeanor is reminiscent of elderly people walking their dogs along the riverbank at dusk.

system:"……"

It's okay, it just means the baby has excellent self-management skills.

Uh... food aside.

"Leading a little bee, flying among the flowers—flying! flying—"

Chaochao, who was taking a walk, suddenly stopped, took four or five steps back, and squatted down in front of the orchid pot.

Its big eyes blinked repeatedly, then suddenly widened.

It's blooming!

And there were two of them!

Chaochao suddenly stood up and excitedly ran into the living room, only to bump into Yu Ci walking towards her at the corner of the garden.

Yu Ci was preparing to go home; she had come to say goodbye to Chaochao.

Yu Ci, who came out of the restroom, did not see Chaochao in the lobby. She asked Aunt Ning, who said she might be in the garden.

Sure enough, it's here.

Yu Ci smiled and walked towards her.

But then the little dumpling ran over and raised her hand to block his way, "Brother, wait a minute!"

However, how could that little radish head possibly stop a 1.8-meter-tall boy?

In a flash of inspiration, Chaochao scrambled to her feet and the enormous bee-shaped balloon collided with Yu Ci's high nose bridge, blocking her view.

If you're not tall enough, bees will make up for it.

"...What's wrong?" Yu Ci stopped in his tracks upon hearing her words.

Chao Chao let out a small sigh of relief and tugged at his sleeve, "Brother Yu Ci, squat down~"
