Chapter 729 A Sudden Farewell

"Sweetie, your dad has already gone to the train station," Lu Xiaofen said softly.

Chen Jianjun had bought the tickets in advance, but he didn't tell Guaibao because he was afraid that he wouldn't want to leave once he saw his precious daughter.

The sudden parting was the most heartbreaking, and even the little princess, who never cared about parting, lost her smile.

She pursed her lips and said sullenly, "Dad didn't even say goodbye to me before he ran off."

"Daddy is just too reluctant to leave my sweet baby. He was afraid that if he told you, you wouldn't want to go back. Besides, Mommy is here with you," Lu Xiaofen coaxed.

Song Wenwen also said, "If you miss home, you can call home. You can also go back during the holidays. Tingyun and Siyu will accompany you back then."

Seeing that the little hamster was unhappy, Gu Tingyun gave her an ice cream.

Chen Jiao had just eaten two, which was not allowed, but he made an exception to please his darling.

"Whatever my sweetie wants to eat, Aunt Wu will make it for her," Aunt Wu coaxed softly.

Even Gu Siyu said comforting words: "Sweetie, didn't you like that dragon pendant? I'll give you that gift too, so don't be unhappy."

Grandpa Gu said in a deep voice, "My dear, I'll go talk to Old Li and book a table for two more days so you can eat your fill!"

Hearing these words and eating the sweet and icy ice cream, Chen Jiao felt much better.

Once everyone was present, the group went to the courtyard house.

"Grandpa Li! I'm here!" Chen Jiao ran excitedly into the courtyard, calling out in her childish voice.

A kind-looking, plump old man came out of the house, wearing an apron and a chef's hat. As soon as he saw the little darling, he smiled and said, "Little darling is here!"

He adored this unpretentious girl, who always fawned over him, and every meal together made him feel the satisfaction and joy emanating from her heart.

Enjoying the food is the best compliment you can give to the person who cooks it!

"Grandpa Li, I want to eat Buddha Jumps Over the Wall!" Chen Jiao called out in a clear voice.

"Good, good, good! I heard that all three of you got into the top high school in the capital. Eat your fill today, it's on me, this old man!" Old Master Li had watched the three children grow up and had long regarded them as his own grandchildren, so he said generously.

The little princess replied without hesitation, "Okay!"

Grandpa Li liked her enthusiasm and invited everyone inside: "We've prepared seats for you all, please come in."

The group sat down in the private room. After the food was served quickly, Old Master Li took off his apron and hat and sat down at the table as well.

Chen Jiao's mood completely improved after enjoying the delicious food.

She puffed out her cheeks and said fiercely, "When Dad calls, I'm going to tell him how delicious Grandpa Li's cooking is, and make him drool!"

It's his own fault for leaving without saying a word!

“Okay, Mom will help you say it,” Lu Xiaofen agreed with a smile.

Seeing that she was happy again, everyone was relieved.

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, Lu Xiaofen played with Gu's child at the Gu family's house until the afternoon, and was then asked to stay for dinner.

“Jianjun has left, so it’s just the two of you at home. Why bother cooking? Just stay and eat here. It’s more lively with more people!” Song Wenwen urged.

With my darling around, even watching her eat makes me feel hungry. Even Gu Siyu, who usually doesn't eat much, can eat half a bowl more rice.
