Because of a single plate of Stir-Fried Rice Noodles, some kids even offered to give Lu Xiyao their mother's gold necklaces.
To this, Teacher Li couldn't help but shake her head and laugh bitterly.
One plate of Stir-Fried Rice Noodles from Yaoyao's dad had already conquered all the kids in the class.
However, thinking back on the taste of that Stir-Fried Rice Noodles, it was indeed amazing.
"Alright, alright, children, it's time to go home. Your parents are waiting outside!"
Teacher Li clapped her hands to maintain the order at dismissal.
Under the watchful eyes of many parents, Lu Xiyao walked out holding a bunch of things.
"Daddy~!"
The little one saw Lu Qin and immediately ran over, her little feet tapping quickly on the ground.
"Yaoyao, did you rob the other kids?"
Lu Qin glanced at the items in her arms. Since there were no valuable items, he just let it be.
Kids often exchanged things with each other.
Once, a little boy from kindergarten gave Lu Xiyao a toy worth over two thousand, and she brought it home.
Lu Qin then gave her a lesson and had her return the toy the next day.
Lu Xiyao gave an innocent yet smug expression: "Daddy~! They insisted on giving it to me, I couldn't help it~!"
She winked playfully, as if saying, "You're so charming, what can I do?"
Parents picking up their kids turned their attention to Lu Qin and Lu Xiyao.
The high-beauty father and daughter made them envious.
The father was young, handsome, and sunny, while the daughter was beautiful, cute, and well-behaved.
The father and daughter seemed to have a great relationship.
Unlike their own kids, who were either mischievous or disobedient, always screaming for snacks or toys after school. They almost wanted to stuff them into a trash can.
Lu Xiyao skillfully climbed into the "co-pilot" seat of the three-wheeled food cart.
The seat in front of the cart was wide enough for two people.
"Daddy~! I want Stir-Fried Rice Noodles for dinner."
"No, we're having rice."
The little one needed to grow and develop, so Lu Qin planned her meals carefully. Stir-Fried Rice Noodles could be eaten occasionally, but she needed to eat proper meals with rice, meat for protein, and vegetables for vitamins.
Lu Xiyao gave him a pitiful expression. Lu Qin's Stir-Fried Rice Noodles were so delicious that she could eat them every day if she could.
"If I eat rice, can I have an ice cream for dessert?" The little one bargained.
"You can have your favorite brain freeze ice cream." Lu Qin smiled.
The little one pretended to cry, "Wuwu~! Yaoyao isn't daddy's favorite little darling anymore!"
...
Shiloh Crystal Restaurant.
In the Rose Hall private room.
"Take the kid and set up a stall to make money?!" Fang Ya looked at Shen Mu Yan in disbelief.
"I don't know what he's thinking." Shen Mu Yan gently shook her head.
Lu Qin had graduated from a prestigious university. Although he had been out of the workforce for many years, he wouldn't resort to setting up a stall.
Shen Mu Yan thought of how he left with nothing, probably only having a little money on him, and had to take care of a child. Everything required money, and life couldn't be that easy.
When they divorced, there was no need to think about pride. He could have taken hundreds of thousands or millions in bank cards. At least then, he wouldn't have to worry about survival or end up on the streets setting up a stall.
Just thinking about it made Shen Mu Yan's head ache.
Lu Qin's actions had made Chairman Shen and his wife give Shen Mu Yan a long lecture, making her feel like a criminal.
"What else could he think? You forced him into this, right?"
"Lu Qin quit his job to take care of your daughter, became a stay-at-home dad, and then got abandoned by you. He couldn't find a job, ended up on the streets setting up a stall..."
Fang Ya picked up a piece of pineapple shrimp ball and put it in her mouth.
"Talk properly. It wasn't abandonment. We separated peacefully, and he didn't want the divorce settlement. How is that my fault?"
Shen Mu Yan was speechless. Why did it seem like Lu Qin was the victim here?
She was the bad one, abandoning her husband and child.
"So, what are you going to do about it?"
"My old man doesn't want me to interfere. He'll handle it."
"Have you seen him?"
"No, what would I say if I saw him?"
"You're not suitable to handle this. I'll go. I miss Yaoyao, it's been a while since I saw that cute little one."
"You can't go either." Shen Mu Yan shook her head. She tasted a spoonful of bamboo shoot duck stew, fragrant and rich.
She had to admit, Fang Ya, the foodie, really knew how to pick restaurants.
"Sigh..."
Fang Ya sighed softly. With things having progressed this far, it was clear that Lu Qin and Shen Mu Yan were not meant to be together.
The poor little one had to follow Lu Qin around setting up a stall, exposed to the wind and rain, working so hard.
"By the way, where is Lu Qin setting up his stall?"
"I don't know."
"What does he sell at the stall?"
"I don't know."
"Where are they living now?"
"I don't know."
Fang Ya bit down on a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs, glaring at Shen Mu Yan: "Shen Mu Yan, I think the 'abandoned husband and child' persona really suits you."
Shen Mu Yan: "……"
...
Lu Qin passed by the farmers' market, buying half a chicken, celery, and tomatoes.
When he returned home, Old Man Ge and several neighbors were relaxing under the tree shade.
"Grandpa Ge, Grandma Wang... Hello, uncles and aunts!"
Lu Xiyao had a sweet mouth and wasn't shy at all. She waved her little hand and greeted everyone.
"It's Yaoyao! Finished school?"
"Oh wow! Yaoyao is so well-behaved, and she's so sweet!"
"Little Lu is so lucky, I'd love to have such a cute daughter."
Seeing that some of the neighbors had kids, Lu Xiyao shared the snacks and toys she had in her hands.
She didn't need so many things herself.
Her actions made everyone nod in approval.
Such a well-behaved little girl must have done many good deeds in her past life.
Lu Qin parked the three-wheeled food cart in the yard and brought the ingredients inside to make dinner.
"Daddy, do you need help?"
"Aren't you watching cartoons? There's Bala Bala Little Magic Fairy today."
"I can watch it later. Right now, I want to cook dinner with Daddy."
"Alright then, wash the tomatoes and celery."
"Okay."
"Remember to remove the stems from the tomatoes, and don't use the leaves of the celery."
"I know, Daddy. I've washed them before. Don't nag, I'm not three anymore."
Lu Qin smiled and rubbed the little one's nose.
He began to prepare the chicken.
He chopped the half chicken into pieces, blanched it, and then simmered it in a pot.
It was a very simple cooking method—no braising or frying, just stewing.
He added red dates, ginger slices, and green onions to enhance the flavor. This way, the chicken would be tender and juicy, keeping its original taste.
The other dish was celery stir-fried with dried tofu, and a tomato egg soup.
Lu Qin made sure to control the portion sizes just right—neither too much nor too little.
When the meal was finished, both father and daughter were satisfied.
This way, they wouldn't have to eat leftovers the next day, and it helped avoid waste.
While washing the dishes, Lu Qin checked the system.
In the afternoon, the food stall had a large crowd, and both the Stir-Fried Rice Noodles and Mung Bean Paste sold out.
He sold nearly 270 servings of Stir-Fried Rice Noodles and 500 cups of Mung Bean Paste, earning over 3,900 yuan in profit. He made another 1,500 in the morning, bringing his total income to a very impressive amount.
System points: 834.
Lu Qin's thoughts moved, and he immediately used the points to draw eight times.
