"I do! Of course I do!" Chenchen answered brightly.
Meng Yu asked again, "Then what kind of daddy do you imagine?"
Hearing this, Ouyang Yunjian suddenly grew nervous, though even he didn't know why.
Chenchen tilted her little head and pointed at Ouyang Yunjian. "The daddy in my heart is just like Uncle Ouyang Yunjian!"
Ouyang Yunjian's handsome face immediately tightened with nervousness.
Meng Yu continued, "Can you tell us why your daddy is like Uncle Ouyang Yunjian?"
Chenchen shook her head. "No reason, because Uncle Ouyang Yunjian is nice to me!"
"Every time I'm sick, Uncle Ouyang Yunjian is there with me!"
Children's love is just that simple — as long as someone is there to accompany them!
Meng Yu grinned, "Then, shall we let Uncle Ouyang Yunjian be your daddy?"
"What nonsense are you talking in front of the child?" Ouyang Yunjian's face flushed hot.
This was way too fast. Right now, he only had feelings for Su Zhu, and Meng Yu…
This guy really shouldn't have brought him here!
"Yay, yay!" Chenchen clapped excitedly. "Really?"
"Uncle Ouyang Yunjian, can you?" Chenchen asked eagerly.
Seeing how happy Chenchen was, Ouyang Yunjian couldn't bring himself to say no directly.
"Chenchen, can Uncle think about it a bit?" he said, finding an excuse.
"I knew you'd say that! But you have to decide quickly, Uncle Ouyang Yunjian."
"Mm, okay."
"Chenchen, will you sing us a song?" Ouyang Yunjian changed the subject. The previous topic was a bit overwhelming and hard for him to digest.
"Sure! I'll sing 'I Go to Kindergarten.'"
"I Go to Kindergarten? Never heard it before, alright, start!" Meng Yu applauded.
Then Chenchen's sweet voice echoed in the small yard:
"Daddy and mommy go to work, I go to kindergarten,"
"Don't cry, don't fuss,"
"Say good morning to the teacher."
…
Just then, Su Zhu appeared carrying two large steaming plates of fragrant dumplings. Chenchen was in the middle of singing "Counting Ducks":
"Under the big bridge in front,"
"A group of ducks swims by,"
"Come quickly, come count,"
"Two, four, six, seven, eight!"
…
"Wow, dumplings are here!" Chenchen stopped singing and ran to Su Zhu.
Su Zhu was startled and dodged quickly. "Watch out, hot, hot…"
Besides dumplings, there were also two plates of cold dishes — smashed cucumbers and marinated beef.
"Wow, smells amazing!"
Meng Yu bent down and sniffed, a blissful expression spreading across his face.
"So much marinated beef — today's my lucky day!"
"Good for you," Ouyang Yunjian rolled his eyes and carried Chenchen to wash their hands.
They sat down, and at Su Zhu's urging, Meng Yu picked up a dumplings and gently bit into it.
The unique celery fragrance mixed with the savory beef exploded instantly on his taste buds. He barely had time to savor it before swallowing the dumplings whole.
"These dumplings are amazing!"
By now, Meng Yu couldn't find words strong enough to describe the soul-stirring taste — the simple "delicious" was all he could say.
Having praised enough, Meng Yu grabbed another dumplings, chewed two or three times, and swallowed it.
Then a third.
"I can't… I can't hold back, Su Zhu, don't laugh at me!"
Like a famine survivor, the dumplings on Meng Yu's plate quickly disappeared…
Meanwhile, Ouyang Yunjian tried to maintain his image, but his body betrayed him. His hand almost reached for another dumpling as soon as he finished one, but he restrained himself just in time!
As for Chenchen, she had turned into a little foodie, eating half a dumpling in one bite…
"Slow down, slow down, don't choke!"
Meng Yu never imagined he could eat so much — thirty dumplings gone in at most five minutes!
At this point, Ouyang Yunjian still had half a plate left.
"Ouyang Yunjian, need help?" Meng Yu raised his chopsticks.
"Get lost, there's not even enough for me!" Ouyang Yunjian defensively guarded his plate.
Then he remembered Su Zhu was nearby. His face flushed red. Damn, his image was ruined. Would she think he was a glutton?
Why was he suddenly so concerned about her opinion?
Is there poison in these dumplings or what?
"No worries, no worries, there's more coming soon."
"Ouyang Yunjian, can you watch Chenchen and make sure she eats slowly? I'll go cook more."
"Okay, come here, Chenchen."
Ouyang Yunjian naturally moved his chair closer and gently said, "Eat slowly, chew carefully…"
Meng Yu subtly slid Ouyang Yunjian's plate over to himself and picked up a dumpling.
"That's mine!" Ouyang Yunjian snapped.
Meng Yu raised his chin coolly, "Yours, mine — hurry up and feed your daughter. Your wife is cooking for you. So stingy!"
