Chapter 277 Don’t listen, don’t listen, the turtle chants
"Chenchen, it's time to eat."
"Here I come."
Chenchen ran out of the bathroom in slippers, with a few water droplets still hanging on his hands.
He jumped to the dining table in two steps, his eyes lit up. On the plate was a golden and crispy sandwich, and next to it was a glass of milk with a hint of steam.
"Daddy, where's yours?"
Chenchen stretched his neck to look into the kitchen.
"You eat first, mine will be ready soon."
Cui Hao's voice came from the kitchen, accompanied by the sizzling sound of fried eggs.
"All right."
Chenchen sat down obediently and had just taken two bites of his sandwich when he saw Cui Hao coming out with a tray.
He looked over curiously and saw that in addition to the sandwich, there was also a cup of steaming black coffee on the plate.
Chenchen opened his eyes wide in surprise: "Didn't you not drink coffee before?"
Cui Hao coughed lightly and sat down as if nothing had happened: "I suddenly wanted to try it."
Chenchen curled his lips, with an expression that said "I don't believe it".
You know, Cui Hao usually doesn't even touch bitter melon. His favorite is sweet milk tea and juice. The little guy rolled his eyes and smiled mischievously:
"You're not trying it because Sister Yan likes it, are you?"
Cui Hao paused for a moment, then nodded seriously.
"If you say so, it seems to be okay. Nan Yan said before that the taste of coffee and sandwiches is very unique. She likes it very much. I happened to make a sandwich for you today, so I wanted to try it."
"Then give it to me. I want to try it too. Sister Yan usually doesn't let me drink coffee at home."
Chenchen immediately perked up and reached out to grab the coffee cup.
“Bang!”
Before Chenchen even touched the coffee cup, Cui Hao quickly slapped his little paw away.
Chenchen immediately became dramatic, his mouth suddenly turned down, and he covered the back of his hand and said aggrievedly:
"You've changed! You actually hit me! You're not my favorite daddy anymore!"
Cui Haodu's mouth twitched. He just hit him, and that's it? A man's heart is like a needle in the sea...
But Cui Hao remained unmoved and said:
"Don't pretend, don't I know what you look like? This trick won't work on me."
Cui Hao paused and continued:
"Besides, your sister Yan didn't let you drink it because it's for your own good. Coffee contains caffeine, and children shouldn't touch it."
"What is caffeine?"
Chenchen tilted his head with an innocent look on his face.
This question really opened Cui Hao's mouth. He pushed his gold-rimmed glasses and began to explain science seriously:
"Caffeine is a substance that can excite the central nervous system. Your nervous system is still in its developmental stage and is more sensitive to caffeine. If you accidentally consume caffeine, it may cause sleep problems such as insomnia, frequent dreams, and easy awakening. Long-term use may also affect the normal development of the nervous system, leading to symptoms such as inattention and irritability..."
Cui Hao was so engrossed in teaching Chenchen science that he didn't notice Chenchen mechanically chewing his sandwich. Cui Hao became increasingly excited as he spoke, from nervous system development to calcium absorption.
"And caffeine can interfere with your calcium absorption, cardiovascular system, and cause gastrointestinal discomfort..."
Chenchen couldn't stand it any longer. He covered his ears and said with a look of agony:
"Okay, okay, I get it. Come on and eat, it'll get cold soon."
Cui Hao thought Chenchen was concerned about him, and he was so touched. He thought about how he wanted to teach Chenchen more knowledge:
"It's okay, you can eat this even if it's cold. I'll continue talking to you..."
Chenchen's mouth twitched. Since when did Daddy become more nagging than Sister Yan...
Chenchen muttered silently in his heart: "I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen, it's just a turtle chanting sutras... I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen, it's just a turtle chanting sutras..."
He didn't dare to stop eating the sandwich, for fear that if he ate for one more second, he would have to listen to one more minute of nagging. He would never be a curious baby again... Curiosity really killed the cat...
"Daddy, I'm done eating. Take your time. I'm going to school!"
As Chenchen spoke, he got off the stool and walked towards the living room.
He didn't want to stay here at all now. A man's nagging was more terrifying than a woman's.
Cui Hao then realized that something was wrong. Why did Chenchen, who usually took his time eating, eat so fast today?
He glanced at the untouched glass of milk on the table and immediately called out to Chenchen, who had already run to the living room:
"You haven't drunk your milk yet. Drink it before you leave."
Chenchen's face suddenly fell, and he reluctantly moved back to the dining table.
This scene was inexplicably familiar. Mu Nanyan called him in the same way last time. He wrinkled his nose and drank the whole glass of milk in one breath.
Cui Hao took the opportunity to say while he was drinking milk:
"By the way, I won't be home for the next few days. If you come up here by yourself, remember to close the door for me."
Chenchen put down the cup, with milk stains still on the corner of his mouth. Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, then asked:
"Where are you going?"
"I'm on a business trip to Beijing. There's a seminar going on. I'm going there for a few days to exchange ideas and learn."
Chenchen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hugged Cui Hao's thighs like a little koala:
"When will you come back? I'll miss you~"
Cui Hao laughed, pinched his soft face, and couldn't help but teasing:
"You'll really miss me? I think you want me to bring you Lego?"
Chenchen, whose thoughts were exposed, chuckled and said with his little face tilted up:
"I heard there are those customizable minifigures in the capital..."
"Okay, I'll bring it to you when the time comes." Cui Hao shook his head helplessly.
"Thank you, Daddy. I knew you were the best."
Chenchen immediately smiled, and his expression changed as quickly as turning the pages of a book.
Seeing this, Cui Hao raised his eyebrows and looked at him and said, "Who was it that complained about me nagging just now?"
Chenchen immediately retorted, "When did I ever complain about you nagging? I didn't. You can't frame me. You have to provide evidence when you speak."
Cui Hao thought about it and it seemed that Chenchen had not said it clearly, he just ate quickly.
Chenchen is now playing word games with him. What will happen in the future?
Seeing Cui Hao seemed to be thinking, Chenchen quickly said:
"Daddy, when will you be back?"
"I'm not sure yet. If it's fast, it might take three to five days, but if it's slow, it might take a week."
"Well, if you come back late, maybe we can meet in the capital!"
Chenchen suddenly became excited when he thought of this. Cui Hao said with some surprise:
"Are you going to the capital too?"
"It seems so. My godmother's birthday is next week, and Sister Yan should take me back to the capital then."
Chenchen counted the days on his fingers, then continued:
"If you go long enough, we'll definitely run into each other!"
Cui Hao rubbed his little head and said, "Okay, then if you go to Beijing, call me and I'll pick you up."
"It's a deal!"
