The brother and sister sat by the roadside for a few minutes, then continued walking, crossed the street, and entered the night market.
Mao Cheng continued to serve as the store manager of the Phoenix Pavilion flagship store.
Phoenix Pavilion's business is getting better and better. Including the two branches that opened last year, there are now a total of six branches.
Every store is doing good business, but people still prefer to eat at the main store.
It was early morning, and there weren't many customers. Mao Cheng was directing the others to prepare the food and clean the house.
Suddenly, Mao Cheng's gaze sharpened!
The next moment, his eyes widened in surprise!
"Brother Cheng, what are you looking at?"
Mao Cheng exclaimed "Damn it!" and took a few steps forward. He crossed the narrow road and called out to the brother and sister who were not far away.
“Mingzhou, Junjun???”
They heard someone calling them.
The brother and sister stopped in their tracks and turned to look at Mao Cheng.
Song Mingzhou exclaimed in surprise, "Uncle Orange!!!"
Mao Cheng frowned, his expression unconvinced. "Just the two of you? Where are your parents? What are you doing out here???"
Song Mingzhou chuckled, "We came out to buy corn cakes. Junjun has never had them before."
The shop owner, who was not far away, exclaimed, "Come on, come on, the corn tortillas are freshly baked!"
Mao Cheng is about to kneel down before the two younger ones!
He strode over, separated the two, took one in each hand, and asked, "Do your parents know?"
Song Mingzhou shook his head.
"Dad doesn't know."
Song Liyun looked up at the very robust Mao Cheng, and then looked up again and saw Mao Cheng's beard. She burst into tears.
"Brother, sob sob sob..."
Song Mingzhou quickly let go, held Song Liyun tightly, and wiped away the tears on her face.
"Junjun, don't cry anymore."
Mao Cheng frowned, squatted down, and asked softly, "Why is Junjun crying?"
In recent years, Mao Cheng has gained a lot of weight, transforming from a handsome young man into a chubby one.
Song Liyun pointed at Mao Cheng's hairy chin.
"Waaaaaah..."
Mao Cheng: "...Ah, this is Uncle's beard, it's not scary, it's not scary."
Song Mingzhou: "Junjun, don't be afraid, this is Uncle Chengzi."
Song Liyun sniffled, her face streaked with tears, and called out, "Uncle Orange."
Mao Cheng smiled.
From initial denial to current acceptance.
"Um."
The shopkeeper packed cornbread for the brother and sister. Mao Cheng paid for it, and watching the two siblings eat the cornbread, he got a little tempted and bought another one.
So the three of them stood by the roadside and started eating pancakes.
Suddenly, a furious shout rang out.
"Song Mingzhou!!!"
Song Mingzhou was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed "Ah!" He turned to the side and looked ahead, only to see his father, his third uncle, his grandfather, and his great-grandfather...
Song Liyun waved to her elderly father in a good mood.
"Dad, come and try the pancake, it's so delicious!"
Mao Cheng patted Song Mingzhou on the head, "Kid, good luck."
