Daddy's Gourmet Shop-Chapter 242 - 234: Can’t See the Stars!

Huang Tao originally planned to drive the BYD Song PLUS with a temporary license plate to take Xuanxuan and his parents for a spin.

But alas, time didn’t allow it!

He had to temporarily shelve that plan.

Instead, he drove back to the shop directly.

Although it had been many years since he last drove, fortunately, he didn’t return the driving skills he learned to the driving school instructor.

So he drove very steadily all the way.

Even when waiting at the traffic lights, there was no shaking.

With the warm air conditioning blowing, Xuanxuan, holding a fluffy little bunny, comfortably leaned back halfway.

She couldn’t help but laugh, her dimples sinking in, and her eyes curving like crescent moons,

looking very pretty.

She sighed with a bow in her eyes: "Wow, it’s really comfortable to have a car!"

Indeed!

Having a car is really nice!

No more bone-chilling wind blowing head-on, and no more exposure to the sun and rain.

Huang Tao nodded in agreement with a smile: "Having a car is indeed very comfortable."

Huang Yide expressed his fondness without hesitation: "This car is really good, it’s spacious too, and the more I sit in it, the more I like it!"

Song Cailian showed a slightly proud expression: "Of course, after all, it was chosen by our son personally, naturally, it’s the best!"

Seeing her grandparents singing praises, Xuanxuan, stroking the bunny ears of the plush little bunny,

inadvertently leaned her small body forward, grabbed the back of the seat, tilted her head to look at her dad’s profile, and sweetly smiled, expressing her fondness: "Daddy, I really like this car too!"

Because her dad and grandparents, the three family members she cares about so much, are all in the car!

Hmm~

It would be even better if mom was here too...

She rested her chin on the fluffy little bunny’s head, tilting her head thoughtfully, looking at the sky outside through the car window, hoping to find her brightest star to ease the longing for her mom.

Unfortunately...

It’s daytime now, and stars can’t be seen!

Holding the fluffy little bunny, looking at the clear sky outside, her little face was full of gloom and her eyes showed a faint sadness and longing, but those emotions were well hidden, not easily noticeable at all.

Huang Tao, focused on driving, didn’t notice his daughter’s unusual behavior.

If he had noticed, he would definitely have stopped the car to give her a loving hug and gently comfort her.

"Xuanxuan, sit properly, your dad is about to pass the traffic lights." Seeing the car restart, Song Cailian quickly reached over to pull Xuanxuan to her side.

Xuanxuan snuggled beside her grandma, feeling her warmth, and her mood gradually improved.

She blinked, thinking that once they arrive at the shop, she could draw today’s event of buying the car with dad and grandparents in her sketchbook.

Then she’d also draw mom there.

In this way, the whole family would be together.

Hmm, this really is a good idea!

She felt she was really a little genius!

Soon.

Huang Tao drove to the vicinity of their shop entrance.

Attracted curious glances from the people in line, who all exclaimed in surprise: "Oh? Who bought a new car?"

Upon seeing Song Cailian get out of the car holding Xuanxuan, followed by Huang Tao coming out from the driver’s seat, the neighbors instantly realized whose car it was!

It’s Boss Huang’s!

Mr. Liu, at the front of the line, exclaimed in surprise: "Oh wow, Boss Huang, you bought a car? So it turns out you were out buying a car this afternoon?"

Before Huang Tao could respond!

Xuanxuan chimed in politely: "Yes! Mr. Liu, we went to buy a car, and we got a toy with the car! Mr. Liu, look, this fluffy little bunny was a gift from the car sales lady!"

As she spoke, she swung the fluffy little bunny in her hand towards Mr. Liu, and just as he reached out to take a closer look, Xuanxuan quickly hugged it back into her arms.

This cute act made everyone laugh.

Other neighbors couldn’t resist taking a few more glances at the new car Huang Tao bought, the more they looked, the more they liked it, and couldn’t help but praise it.

"Tsk tsk tsk, this electric car is really nice! The design looks really fashionable and elegant, and it’s spacious too, our domestic electric cars are truly getting better and better!"

"I’ve wanted to buy this model for a long time, but my family wouldn’t let me, insisting that I buy a Toyota. I get angry just thinking about it. Boss Huang, you’re so lucky! You get to buy whatever car you want, make your own decisions, I’m envious!"

"Not bad, not bad, Boss Huang’s taste is indeed impressive, choosing this model, just seeing its appearance gives a sense of quality. If I buy a car someday, I’ll get this model too."

"With gas prices so high now, electric cars are indeed the way to go! It’s making me want to sell my Volkswagen and get an electric car instead."

"Boss Huang, congratulations on your new car!"

Facing the neighbors’ congratulatory voices, Huang Tao smiled and exchanged a few polite words with them.

Thinking it was getting late, he didn’t stay longer. He smiled and said to the neighbors: "Time ran away buying a car today, I need to hurry back to the store to prepare the dishes for tonight, so I won’t chat with everyone anymore."

The neighbors, who originally wanted to chat longer with Huang Tao, hearing this, didn’t hold him back. They quickly let him go, and couldn’t help but urge him.

"Oh dear, Boss Huang, go quickly and get busy in the shop, so you can open up soon~"

"Yes! We’ve been here braving the northwest wind for over an hour, just hoping to eat some of the dishes you made sooner in the evening! Go quickly and cook!"

"I’m so unfortunate, I haven’t been able to eat the dishes you’ve cooked for two days straight. Today I’m not working, so I came early to line up, hoping to get a taste of the new Honeyed Ham."

"My son has been clamoring for days to eat Honeyed Ham, will we be able to buy it tonight?"

Huang Tao smiled and said: "Tonight, the quantity of Honeyed Ham is about the same as noon, if you come early, you should be able to buy it. Everyone please wait a little while, I’ll go make the final preparations."

Xuanxuan politely said: "Everyone, please don’t worry, my dad will be very quick, please wait a moment~"

The neighbors were amused.

Huang Tao and Xuanxuan, they really are cut from the same cloth.

The neighbors were very envious of Xuanxuan and Huang Yide’s family.

"If only my son were Boss Huang, then I could enjoy his dishes anytime and anywhere."

"Indeed."

"Jealous of Old Huang, having such a son."

Huang Yide looked at the envious gazes of the neighbors, feeling quite delighted, and smiled as he exchanged a few words, then went into the shop with Huang Tao and the others.

He opened the door and walked into the shop.

Ding Suqin saw it was Huang Tao’s family and said: "Boss, you’ve bought your car."

Earlier when Huang Tao went out, the three employees knew they were going to the BYD 4S store to buy a car, and seeing them come back with smiles on their faces now, guessed that the car purchase was settled... bought.

"Yes, it’s already been purchased."

Huang Tao nodded with a smile and then said: "It’s getting late, let’s get busy first, and after we finish, we’ll have a little celebration."

He got busy with the three employees.
