Daddy's Gourmet Shop-Chapter 402 - 392: Born to Dance!

The sun was setting in the west, its afterglow casting onto the scattered dark clouds, and the entire sky suddenly brightened up.

In front of the gate of Golden Sun Kindergarten,

at that time, outside the kindergarten gate, it was very

"Bye Xuanxuan! I’ll go to your daddy’s shop for dinner with my dad later!"

"Okay, Qianqian, see you later~"

"Bye Xuanxuan!"

"Bye Qiqi!"

"See you tomorrow, Xuanxuan and Xuanxuan’s daddy!"

"See you tomorrow, Haohao!"

"Ah, alright, see you tomorrow."

Huang Tao held Xuanxuan’s little hand, and while nodding and smiling gently at those kids, he also didn’t forget to wave goodbye to them.

Recently, every time Huang Tao drops off and picks up Xuanxuan, he encounters situations like this.

There are especially many kids saying goodbye and good morning to Xuanxuan, as she has clearly become the most popular kid in the entire kindergarten.

Of course, aside from the little one’s charm winning her the love of other kids and teachers, part of this is due to his contributions as a dad.

Everyone loves his cooking!

And so...

They loved Xuanxuan too because of it!

As Xuanxuan sat in the car, she couldn’t contain her excitement, just like usual, using her melodious voice to tell her dad about the happenings at kindergarten, just like a cheerful little bird.

She particularly mentioned the dance Teacher Ye taught them.

"Qiqi has greatly improved in her dancing. She said her mom learned to dance before, so at home, her mom gave her some pointers, and she got better and better. But I also dance really well, both Teacher Ye and Teacher Xu praised my dancing! They said I was the best in the class, and the other kids think so too!"

Xuanxuan’s beautiful eyes curved into lovely arcs as she leaned towards Huang Tao, seemingly waiting for her dad’s praise.

"Really? Our Xuanxuan has been practicing hard at home these days, so you must be dancing wonderfully, wonderfully well."

Huang Tao looked up at the rearview mirror inside the car, watching his precious daughter through it, and while praising her, he also gave a thumbs-up, and continued, "Besides, Xuanxuan, with your long arms and legs and your body being so flexible, you’re simply made for dancing!"

"Hehe~"

Xuanxuan, elated by her dad’s approval and praise, felt immensely happy inside.

Even happier than when Teacher Ye and Teacher Xu praised her!

Huang Tao was also infected by the joy, smiling broadly and with anticipation, he asked, "Xuanxuan, after we get home tonight, will you dance for Dad? Dad wants to see the whole dance you practiced."

"Uh..."

Xuanxuan’s bright eyes blinked as she thought for a moment, then lightly shook her little head, directly refusing, "No!"

Huang Tao couldn’t believe his ears for a moment, thinking he might have heard wrong.

But Xuanxuan’s shaking little head kept telling him...

It was all true!

He didn’t hear wrong!

At this moment, he finally experienced the mixed feelings... what it really meant.

Why had his sweet little angel become less sweet?

He puzzledly asked, "Xuanxuan, why not? Don’t you want to dance for Dad?"

Xuanxuan responded without hesitation, "Yes, I do!"

This really confused Huang Tao!

He continued to press, "Since you want to, why did you say no?"

With a sweet curve of her eyebrows, Xuanxuan explained her thoughts to her dad, "Because I want to wait until New Year’s Day and wear a beautiful dance costume to dance on stage for you, Dad!"

Ah, that explains it!

It seems this little one is really growing up, she has her own ideas.

Hearing this, Huang Tao’s mood also became cheerful.

He pondered for a moment and nodded, saying, "Well, that’s a great idea, then. Dad is looking forward to your New Year’s Day performance, make sure to dance well then!"

"Mm-hmm."

Like a little chick pecking at rice, Xuanxuan nodded her head and then earnestly patted her chest and promised, "Dad, don’t worry, I’ll definitely dance well."

Huang Tao smiled, "Great, then Dad will cheer you on and clap for you from the audience, I’ll be your cheerleader!" 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

"Yay, yay... this way I can see exactly where you are, Dad, and I won’t have to worry about not finding you."

Xuanxuan clapped her little hands in delight.

Along the way, the father and daughter were chatting and laughing together.

Mostly, the little one was chattering about the fun things at kindergarten with Huang Tao and mentioned today’s craft assignment.

Huang Tao, besides listening attentively, would respond appropriately, letting the little one know he was very interested in what she had to say.

Soon, the father and daughter returned to West City Old Street.

Once they reached the shop, they parked the car.

Huang Tao lifted Xuanxuan from the car seat at the back, holding her in his arms.

Her small, soft body filled him with happiness as a dad.

At that moment, at the entrance of the shop, the queue of people had already estimated to exceed 200.

It had extended to the green belt on the road and continued for some distance.

The number of return customers was increasing day by day, to the point that people were lining up by three o’clock.

And those queuing neighbors, upon seeing Huang Tao and his daughter return, eagerly greeted them.

"Xuanxuan, finished school? Granny has some chocolate, would you like some?"

"Xuanxuan, your lips look a bit red, seems like you’re slightly inflamed, Grandpa has canned rock sugar and pear here, which can soothe your throat, come and take it."

"Boss Huang, you brought Xuanxuan back, quickly take her into the shop, hurry and get the dishes ready, so you can open the shop early!"

"I’m so greedy, I didn’t get to eat your Shredded Eel in Garlic Sauce at noon during deliveries, so I specially finished work early today to come here to line up early, will I get to buy it tonight?"

Faced with the enthusiastic and caring words from the neighbors, Xuanxuan, with her eyebrows arched, politely responded to them, "Thank you, Granny, thank you, Grandpa, but I want to eat the food my dad makes, so no chocolate or canned food for me!"

"Don’t worry, everyone, my dad is really quick and will definitely open on time for business, so don’t worry~"

The customers were amused by her little adult demeanor.

Of course, there was more envy!

Envious of Xuanxuan for having a dad so skilled in cooking.

Envious of Xuanxuan for always getting to eat the delicious food her dad makes.

After all, these are things they can only admire but not obtain.

Huang Tao smiled and exchanged a few words, then took Xuanxuan into the shop.

He placed Xuanxuan on the floor, speaking softly, "Play here for a while, Dad is going to make you something to eat."

"Dad, go ahead, I can take care of myself," Xuanxuan obediently nodded.

As Huang Tao was preparing dinner for Xuanxuan.

Xuanxuan entertained herself by playing with Mimi.

Though Mimi felt a bit uncomfortable being held by the little master.

But it couldn’t be helped!

Not having seen her good friend all day, Xuanxuan naturally wanted to snuggle up with it a bit (or savor it?).

A little later, Huang Tao came over with a bowl of white rice, a small plate of Shredded Eel in Garlic Sauce, a plate of oil-braised shrimp, and a plate of meat and mushroom stir-fry.

"Xuanxuan, wash your hands and eat!"

Xuanxuan obediently followed suit.

After washing her hands, she climbed up to the dining table and sat properly.

Seeing her dad with another new dish, she said with admiration, "Dad is really amazing, another new dish, it must be delicious!"

Hearing this, the corner of Huang Tao’s mouth almost reached his ears with sweetness in his heart, "Alright, dig in!"

Xuanxuan picked up a piece of Shredded Eel in Garlic Sauce with her chopsticks and started eating.

The moment it entered her mouth.

Her lively eyes instantly lit up!

Wow~

This is also delicious!

How does everything Dad makes taste so good!

"Mm-hmm, this is indeed delicious, Dad!"

Huang Tao smiled and patted her head, "Eat more."

"Okay!"

Then she continued to enjoy her happy and delicious meal.
