Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 635: Unwilling to Give Up

"Then I’m going to stay over tonight. If it snows heavily, I want to stay here and see the snow scene first thing in the morning."

Zhao Gushen raised an eyebrow, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.

It was the little guy himself who said he wouldn’t go home, not that they wouldn’t take him home.

So, Ye Fei dressed Xiao Mo in his down jacket, put on his hat and gloves, and changed him into his snow boots.

At this point, Xiao Mo was already bundled up like a ball, bending over with difficulty just to see his snow boots.

"Wearing these shoes today was really a wise choice, just in time for the snow."

Ye Fei silently felt a pang of sympathy for the inexperienced little fellow, seeing as the snow was light enough to barely form a thin layer, definitely not heavy.

Don’t look at the little guy who was born and raised in Ye City.

For the first three years, he didn’t remember much of anything!

Being young, the cold snowy weather kept him from going out.

So, while he had seen snow, he didn’t have much experience with it.

The little guy, all dressed up, dashed into the yard. While Ye Fei and the others were inside having hot pot, they could see the little guy playing outside through the window.

He kept catching snowflakes with his hands.

He would occasionally tilt his head back, mouth open, waiting for snowflakes to fall in.

He also took pictures of the snowy yard with his phone.

After playing for a while, the little guy finally came back.

His little face was red, and snowflakes gathered on his hat and clothes.

Finally, Aunt Lin brought out the dumplings and put them into the bone broth pot and mushroom soup pot.

Everyone helped themselves.

The freshly boiled dumplings had a uniquely different taste, so hot they burned the mouth, with slippery dumpling skin and unabsorbed soup filling inside.

Bite into one, and the soup bursts in the mouth, still a bit scalding on the tongue.

Ye Fei then went to the fridge and took out the frozen milk jelly and sesame milk jelly, drizzling cherry sauce over the milk jelly.

Nothing was added to the sesame milk jelly.

Because it already had sesame paste in it.

She and Aunt Lin served the milk jelly as dessert for everyone after the meal.

"This is delicious, with a rich milky flavor, not too sweet, and a tangy cherry sauce to cut the richness. It’s cool and smooth, like eating pudding," Aunt Lin said with a smile as she enjoyed it. "How did you make this? It’s so good."

"It’s really simple, I’ll write it down for you later, and you can make it when you have time," Ye Fei said with a smile.

"Great, great," Aunt Lin nodded eagerly.

By 9 PM, it was about time for them to leave.

It was still snowing.

Xiao Mo was reluctant to part. He wanted to go home with Ye Fei but also wanted to stay at the old house to watch the snow.

However, although Little New Year is a festival, there is no holiday.

Tomorrow is Friday, and he has to go to kindergarten.

The old lady noticed Xiao Mo’s dilemma and said, "Isn’t Xiao Fei having a competition on Saturday? You’ll all be here then. You can watch the snow then. The snow on the ground needs to be cleared, or it’ll be slippery. But the snow on the roof won’t melt for days, so it will still be there on Saturday."

Xiao Mo’s eyes lit up: "That’s a great idea!"

Zhao Gushen: "..."

Does the old lady not want him to have a second child?

How is she able to sabotage and hold him back?

The old lady gave him a sidelong glance.

Even if she wants another grandchild, she can’t neglect her dear great-grandson.

So, in the snow, Xiao Mo went home with Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei.

After Little New Year, the next day was Friday.

Ye Ning packed up, booked the hotel and flights, and brought Xu Huizhen and Ye Dezhang to Ye City.

The three arrived at the hotel and settled their luggage.

Ye Ning booked a room for Ye Dezhang and Xu Huizhen, and a separate room for herself.

Once settled in the room, Ye Ning called Liu Sixu.

Liu Sixu was the rich second-generation who had returned to Ye City with Ding Ruoyi before.

Ye Ning got to know Liu Sixu through Ding Ruoyi.

She learned that Liu Sixu’s family was in Ye City and held some influence.

Liu Sixu was also a well-known figure among the young elite in Ye City.

Together with Zhuang Zhongyue, they frequently appeared in gossip news and Weibo hot searches.

Being a rich young man, he had quite a network and status in Ye City, befriending famous second-generation rich kids in Ye City and S City.

As a result, he was incredibly popular among young netizens.

He was often photographed during outings, participating in activities, and gathering with friends, making it to hot searches.

Passersby could recognize him instantly and would photograph him, leading to numerous online shares.

Therefore, when Ye Ning discovered that someone returning with Ding Ruoyi was Liu Sixu, she was truly surprised.

Even though she was in Ye City, anyone with internet access wouldn’t be unaware of Liu Sixu.

Although Liu Sixu studied abroad, he would return during breaks.

Each time he came back to Hua Country, he would inevitably appear on hot searches frequently.

He probably made it three to four times a week.

Ye Ning could hardly be unfamiliar with him.

Thus, upon getting to know Ding Ruoyi, Ye Ning also met Liu Sixu.

Ye Ning went to great lengths to connect with Liu Sixu, exchanging WeChat and phone numbers with him.

Even though she was busy handling restaurant matters in Ye City, she would video call Liu Sixu whenever possible.

There was a time when Xu Huizhen barged into the study without knocking, seeing her with an open collar, half-concealed look. It wasn’t the first time.

Ye Ning knew she had to give Liu Sixu a taste to keep his interest.

Someone like Liu Sixu, who hadn’t seen various women?

Even without knowing his foreign escapades, media reports weren’t necessary for her to imagine it.

Every time he returned to his homeland, he was never without women around.

Every media capture of him alongside Zhuang Zhongyue had him surrounded by a bunch of pretty girls.

It was hard to tell who was with whom or if all of them were.

Each shot of him had different girls tagging along.

Playing around was easy for someone like Liu Sixu, making it hard to pin him down.

Truly capturing him requires significant effort.

Ye Ning knew she didn’t have the age advantage.

Plenty of 19 and 20-year-old girls were around Liu Sixu.

At 26, she lacked a competitive edge.

Moreover, given Liu Sixu’s fickleness, she might not be able to capture him.

But Ye Ning didn’t want to give up this rare opportunity.

Because it’s rare to meet someone of Liu Sixu’s caliber, not to mention it’s tough to access Hua Country’s central elite circle from faraway Ye City.

Even if she was born and raised in Ye City, without a good opportunity, it would still be hard to meet those in high positions.

Meeting someone of Liu Sixu’s level is extraordinary.
