When a horn honked behind him, Huang Jun instinctively held Qingqing and Weiwei’s little hands, moving them to the side to let the car pass first.
However.
The car didn’t drive past them; instead, it slowly stopped by their side.
He heard the car window slowly roll down, and a clear, pleasant, and familiar voice called out, "Qingqing’s dad?!"
Hearing soone call him "nanny dad," Huang Jun instinctively lowered his head and glanced sideways...
And saw a fair and delicate face, with a gentle smile on her lips, greeting him.
Oh~
So it was Miss Yang!
Huang Jun imdiately recognized her and greeted her with a smile, "Miss Yang, hello, are you just getting off work and heading ho?"
Qingqing and Weiwei, upon seeing that it was Yang Yuxi in the car, also politely greeted her, "Hello, Miss Yang~"
"Ah, yes, indeed."
Yang Yuxi slightly nodded to the father and his two daughters, with a hint of surprise in her eyes, and asked, "Qingqing’s dad, weren’t you taking Qingqing and Weiwei ho first? Why are you still here?"
Huang Jun explained with a smile, "The kids wanted to play on the slide, so we stayed in the park a bit longer, and ti just flew by!"
Oh, I see!
Noticing Huang Jun and his daughters walking hand in hand along the road without any intention of driving, she guessed and asked, "Are you planning to walk ho?"
"Yes!"
Huang Jun answered straightforwardly, without feeling the slightest embarrassnt about not having a car.
Yang Yuxi suggested, "Why don’t I give you a ride ho? It would be faster."
"Well..."
Huang Jun was a bit hesitant, not wanting to trouble her. He was about to refuse when Yang Yuxi gently continued, "Qingqing’s dad, I live not far from your place; it’s on the way. Hop in!"
"You see, Qingqing and Weiwei look a bit tired. Surely, you don’t want them to walk ho, right?"
With that, she pressed a button to open the front passenger seat and rear doors, making it easy for Huang Jun to get in at any ti.
Her words instantly touched Huang Jun’s heart, hitting right on his concern.
Seeing his two daughters looking tired, Huang Jun’s heart was naturally filled with tenderness.
So, he no longer declined, smiling as he thanked Yang Yuxi, "Miss Yang, then thank you so much!"
Huang Jun took Qingqing and Weiwei’s little hands, and the three of them got into the car and fastened their seatbelts.
Yang Yuxi slowly started the car, heading in the direction of Jinyuan District.
On the way.
During their chat, it ca up that Yang Yuxi lived alone and had no one to cook for her when she got ho. Her cooking skills were quite average, so she usually didn’t cook at ho, and would just order takeout if hungry.
Therefore.
Huang Jun suggested, "Miss Yang, if you don’t mind, you’re welco to co over to my house later and join us for a ho-cooked al!"
After all, after accepting a ride, it was only right and courteous to reciprocate.
Isn’t that how social interactions work!
"Oh..."
Yang Yuxi showed an expression of being pleasantly surprised; she didn’t expect Huang Jun to invite her to dinner.
Instantly, joy welled up in her heart like a spring.
But her modesty made her a bit bashful.
So she politely responded, "No need, no need to trouble, I’ll just have sothing simple when I get back."
Though she said no, in her heart she was eager to taste that al!
As long as Huang Jun insisted once more, she would agree imdiately.
However.
Huang Jun, not understanding her intentions, thought she might have sothing going on at ho and it was inconvenient for her to stay for dinner, so he didn’t insist. He smiled and said, "Then next ti I’ll treat you to dinner!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Yuxi was dumbfounded!
Huang Jun, oh Huang Jun, if only you’d insist a little more, I’m easy to persuade.
Just as Yang Yuxi was feeling a bit disappointed, little Qingqing seed to understand her thoughts. She leaned forward towards the driver’s seat, gently tugged on Yang Yuxi’s sleeve, and continued to invite, "Miss Yang, co to our house and have dinner with us!"
"Yeah, Miss Yang, stay and have dinner with us. Anyway, there’s no al waiting for you at ho!" Weiwei added with a smile.
Yang Yuxi was montarily speechless: "..."
Weiwei’s words hit the nail on the head, saying the truth that was impossible to argue with.
But this truth...
She loved to hear it!
She was afraid if she hesitated a bit, the two little ones wouldn’t ask her to stay again, leaving her nowhere to cry even if she wanted to...
So, she seized the opportunity without hesitation, readily agreeing, "Alright, then I’ll trouble you guys. I didn’t expect to hitch a ride and score a al; it’s really embarrassing."
Huang Jun, realizing a bit late that Yang Yuxi actually wanted to stay, stay and have a al he cooked, then smiled and replied, "If anyone should feel embarrassed, it should be . Having you make a special trip for us and then letting you go ho on an empty stomach is out of the question..."
Originally, he planned to make sothing simple to eat at ho with his two lovely daughters.
But now that he had unexpectedly run into and invited Yang Yuxi to have dinner together, he couldn’t just settle for sothing simple.
So as not to neglect the guest!
Thus, when they passed by the vegetable market,
Huang Jun asked Yang Yuxi to park the car, and he went into the market to pick out so fresh ingredients.
Then, they set off again and arrived at Jinyuan District.
After Yang Yuxi parked the car, she followed Huang Jun and his two daughters into Huang Jun’s cozy ho.
She changed into slippers and glanced around the room.
Although the house was not large, it was very tidy.
It was apparent that Huang Jun was not only skilled in cooking but also adept at housekeeping.
Tsk tsk tsk, truly a great house-husband, capable in the living room, skilled in the kitchen, and possibly...
Yang Yuxi quickly stopped her wandering thoughts.
Huang Jun smiled and instructed his two darling daughters: "Qingqing, Weiwei, you keep Miss Yang company for a while, Daddy’s going to cook now."
The two little ones nodded, tapping their little chests and promising: "Daddy, don’t worry, we’ll take good care of Miss Yang!"
After they spoke, Qingqing and Weiwei each took Yang Yuxi’s hand, dispelling her idea of helping Huang Jun in the kitchen.
Unable to refuse their enthusiastic hospitality, she obediently sat on the sofa with the two little ones and started enjoying the cartoon "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" that Weiwei played for her.
Yang Yuxi picked up her phone to check the ti, and curious little Weiwei leaned over: "Miss Yang, are you going to take a picture?"
"..."
Seeing Weiwei’s eager face, she smiled and asked: "How about we take one together?"
"Sure!" Weiwei raised her hands in agreent.
As for the guest’s request, Qingqing certainly wouldn’t refuse since she had promised her dad to take good care of Miss Yang.
She nodded her little head in agreent.
Yang Yuxi let Weiwei and Qingqing sit on either side of her, their little heads leaning towards her, and the three of them posed with peace signs, shouting: "Cheese!"
With a click, the photo captured this warm mont.
Yang Yuxi sent the picture to a small workgroup of just seven people.
As soon as the photo appeared, the originally quiet group instantly beca lively.
Xie Jianing: Aren’t these Qingqing and Weiwei? When did you take this picture? How co I didn’t know? Wait, the background doesn’t look like our school, does it?
Jiang Xinzhuo: Definitely not! Judging by the background, it seems like soone’s ho! But I rember Miss Yang’s house doesn’t have this type of sofa, speaking of which, where is she now? Could it be... at Chef Huang’s ho? (○o○)
Liu Suyu: Doing so quick calculations, it’s highly possible! (￢_￢) peek
Yang Yuxi: Alright, alright, I confess, I’m currently a guest at Qingqing and Weiwei’s ho, and Qingqing’s dad is busy cooking to host ! o(^▽^)o
Zheng Yujia: Oh, you’re secretly eating without ? Where’s my knife? Where’s my twenty-ter long great knife?
Cai Jingxian: Oh, Miss Yang, you actually went to Chef Huang’s house to mooch a al, and didn’t call when there’s good food, how awful of you...
Liu Suyu: We said we’d diet together and skip dinner, yet you sneakily ran to Chef Huang’s house to feast, friendship over!
Xie Jianing: So envious, jealous, and resentful...
Yang Yuxi: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yang Yuxi: How is it called sneaking food or mooching, or sneaking off, such unpleasant ways to put it? I was invited as a guest openly and honorably by Qingqing’s dad, okay!
Wei Siyi: By the way, how did you manage to get Chef Huang to invite you over voluntarily? Begging Fairy Yang to teach us her secrets!
Xie Jianing: Begging too!
Jiang Xinzhuo: Begging as well!
"..."
Looking at the flood of "teach us" comnts on her phone, Yang Yuxi couldn’t help but smile as she edited a ssage, sharing in detail the story of her chance encounter with Huang Jun at the school gate that afternoon, and how after taking him ho she was invited in.
This information post imdiately drew a wave of envious and jealous responses.
Colleagues marveled at why such a wonderful thing didn’t happen to any of them.
For a mont, they even began to suspect that Yang Yuxi’s chance encounter might have been a long-plotted "conspiracy."
Definitely!
Otherwise, how did she just happen to run into him?
Those with agile minds even started considering whether to stage a chance encounter on the road, using the opportunity to offer a ride ho or to school for Huang Jun’s family of three.
This way, they too might be invited by Huang Jun to enjoy a delicious dinner he cooked...
Especially Xie Jianing, who was quite tempted!
But then she thought about her own electric scooter that couldn’t carry Huang Jun’s family of three, and felt like crying without tears...
Alright~
From now on, she’s determined to save up for a car!
She began scribbling on paper, drawing up her grand savings plan.
Even swore to give up her favorite milk tea, and reduce her monthly expenses on clothes, shoes, and bags to the bare minimum...
Huang Jun had no idea that in order to taste his dinner, spendthrift Xie Jianing had begun saving money and even planned to buy a car to give him rides to and from work.
If Huang Jun knew, he would definitely say: How could I ever deserve such high regard from a young lady?
