"Teacher Zhu, you're here! What would you like to buy today?" A warm-hearted older woman greeted her with a smile.
"Two cups of milk tea, please make them for me. And these Alpenliebe lollipops too," Zhu Shuang said crisply, a slight smile on her face.
The older woman nodded and skillfully got to work.
Soon after, Zhu Shuang came out carrying two steaming cups of milk tea and handed one of them to Liu Feng.
The two sat on a bench at the entrance of the supermarket, took a sip of milk tea, and then started chatting.
Little Sweetie wasn't very interested in milk tea, but when Zhu Shuang handed her lollipops, the little girl's eyes lit up instantly. She was overjoyed and sweetly said, "Thank you, sister."
Seeing how happy Little Sweetie was, Liu Feng couldn't help but laugh and said, "These lollipops are enough for you to eat all day long."
Little Sweetie, holding candy in her hand, nestled contentedly in Liu Feng's arms and soon fell asleep.
Liu Feng noticed that the little girl had become somewhat sleepy after eating the "Hundred Fruit Candy." Through his perception, he was pleasantly surprised to discover that about 10% of the spiritual energy contained in the candy had been absorbed by the little girl.
This child actually has a talent for cultivation; he's a promising prospect.
"What an adorable child, let me hold her." Zhu Shuang put down her milk tea, reached out her hand and said, her eyes full of affection, eager to hug the little sweetheart.
Liu Feng nodded: "Okay."
If Little Sweetie hadn't fallen asleep, she probably wouldn't have wanted Zhu Shuang to hold her. Back then, when they went out, Little Sweetie wouldn't even leave her own mother and just went with Liu Feng. But now it's easy; she's asleep. Liu Feng successfully placed her in Zhu Shuang's arms.
Zhu Shuang gently held Xiao Tiantian in her arms. Xiao Tiantian's long eyelashes were closed, and her small mouth was slightly open, her breath as sweet as orchids. A sweet fragrance wafted into Zhu Shuang's nostrils, and she couldn't help but whisper, "It smells so good! How can it smell so good?"
At this moment, the surrounding air seemed to become fresher, with a faint sweetness, like the fragrance of flowers in spring and the aroma of fruits in autumn.
"Huh?"
Zhu Shuang was filled with doubt: "Where is this fragrance coming from? Could it be that the baby used some special baby skincare product?" She leaned closer to Xiaotian and gently sniffed.
This fragrance is the aroma emanating from the spiritual energy contained in the "Hundred Fruit Candy". Most of the spiritual energy in the Hundred Fruit Candy cannot be absorbed by Little Sweetie, so it is released into the air with each breath she takes.
Liu Feng smiled slightly, and simply avoided the topic when faced with Zhu Shuang's question.
Zhu Shuang stopped worrying. She gently hugged Xiao Tiantian, a tender look in her eyes, and softly murmured, "How wonderful it would be if I had such a cute little baby too."
She adored her so much that she couldn't resist giving Little Sweetie a kiss on her sweet, fragrant face.
Liu Feng couldn't help but laugh: "If you like children, then just have more, and you'll have plenty, right?"
Zhu Shuang was taken aback, then sighed, "I'm still single, who would I have a child with?"
Liu Feng touched his nose sheepishly, a slightly embarrassed expression on his face: "Oh, then let's wait until we have another one."
Zhu Shuang turned to look at Liu Feng and asked curiously, "Why did you break up with Wang Juan? I heard Wang Juan is doing very well. She's a top student from Peking University, and now she's back from studying in the US. She even found a rich and handsome guy, and I heard they're getting married soon. Did you know?"
She leaned forward, anticipating Liu Feng's answer. Every girl has a gossipy heart, and that's certainly true.
However, Liu Feng didn't know how to talk about what happened between him and Wang Juan. It seemed like they hadn't done anything, yet it also seemed like they had done everything. Then they tacitly broke up and went their separate ways.
He interrupted Zhu Shuang and asked, "How are you doing now? I just heard the lady at the supermarket call you Teacher Zhu. What's going on? You've become a teacher?"
Zhu Shuang tilted her head slightly, a strand of hair slipping down her cheek. She replied softly, "Yes, me? Just an ordinary woman. I don't have Wang Juan's lofty ambitions. If I can be with the person I love and have a cute little baby, a simple and peaceful life is just fine."
She glanced at the little girl in her arms, her eyes sparkling. Liu Feng could see in her eyes the dreams she held, her simplicity and kindness.
The two continued chatting...
