Chaochao blinked: "I want to finish eating here."
Yu Ning nodded and placed the two desserts on exquisite European-style round plates in the food service area.
She took off her disposable gloves, looked at the numbers displayed on the screen, and quoted the price.
Chaochao took out her most treasured little wallet from her cloth bag, looking at her with sparkling eyes: "Can I give you money?"
This little wallet is the same one Grandma Zhou sewed for her. It's made of cream-colored fabric with a small, darker orange sun embroidered on it. There are no other decorations, just a zipper at the top and a small pocket on the back, which she uses to carry candy.
The milk candy we just had came from here.
Compared to QR code payments, Chaochao prefers to pay in cash, perhaps because it brings a direct sense of joy, like getting a ride on a rocking horse by tossing in a coin.

Chaochao carefully stuffed the change into her wallet by color. She noticed the one-yuan and five-yuan bills placed at the front of her wallet; these were the pocket money she hadn't had time to spend before finding her father.
But Chaochao decided that she would only use the money when she was absolutely broke! Maybe a long, long time from now, this money could support her and her father?
With a strong belief in her heart, Chaochao carefully put away her small wallet, patted her cloth bag, and then happily followed the employee who brought the dessert to the dining area.
Yu Ning, who remained in the reception area, turned to look back, her gaze lingering on the little dumpling's bouncy, receding figure.
