Gourmet: Twins' Father and Chef of the Kindergarten-Chapter 143 - 138: Where Did We Lose After All?

All important matters have been agreed upon, and both parties hold eager expectations for future cooperation.

Liu Shiwei glanced at his watch, realizing it was getting late, he discreetly signaled to Dong Yuantao beside him. Then he stood up and politely bid farewell to Liang Yinqiu: "Director Liang, thank you very much for your generous hospitality today, but it’s getting late, and I should be leaving now. I have a company meeting I need to attend this afternoon, and I look forward to having an in-depth conversation with you again soon."

Liang Yinqiu responded with a smile, elegantly standing up as well: "Chairman Liu, your visit is our honor. I also look forward to meeting you again and wish that our collaboration will commence successfully."

Liu Shiwei smiled and nodded, extending his hand to shake hands with Liang Yinqiu as he said goodbye: "Director Liang, your work is outstanding, and I am full of confidence in our cooperation."

"Chairman Liu, you flatter me. It’s what we should do."

Liang Yinqiu held Liu Shiwei’s hand and responded with a gentle smile: "Let me walk you out."

"Director Liang, please no need to trouble yourself."

Liu Shiwei politely declined Liang Yinqiu’s offer to see him off and instead extended his hand to Qian Guoxiang: "Elder Qian, goodbye."

Qian Guoxiang also stood up and shook hands with Liu Shiwei to say goodbye: "Chairman Liu, goodbye! Take care, and make sure to come by again when you have time. Next time, I’ll whip up a few special dishes for us to enjoy with some drinks."

Hearing this, a thought flashed through Liu Shiwei’s mind: if Chef Huang could also show his skills, it would be perfect!

He wasn’t dissatisfied with Qian Guoxiang’s culinary skills; it was just that Huang Jun’s cooking had a special place in his heart.

He didn’t express this thought, only smiled and nodded in response to Qian Guoxiang: "Sure! Let’s gather again when we have the chance. Enjoy your meal, I must take my leave now."

Saying this, he looked around but did not see Huang Jun, feeling a bit of regret.

But he didn’t linger much longer.

After all, there were many affairs at the company awaiting his return.

With a warm send-off from Liang Yinqiu and the others, Liu Shiwei and Dong Yuantao walked out of the kitchen together.

Gradually leaving behind the lively kitchen.

Heading towards the garden gate.

Just at that moment!

They suddenly caught sight of Huang Jun walking out from the door of Class (4) classroom.

Their eyes lit up instantly.

They actively stepped forward to greet him.

Liu Shiwei said excitedly: "Chef Huang, I wanted to say goodbye to you in the kitchen earlier, but I couldn’t find you. I didn’t expect to meet you here."

Huang Jun, seeing Liu Shiwei and Dong Yuantao, also showed a delighted smile: "Chairman Liu, Assistant Dong, I was just helping the childcare teachers deliver meals and took the chance to check on my two daughters. Are you... leaving?"

Liu Shiwei nodded: "Yes, I must return as there are matters at the company."

Huang Jun smiled: "Then let’s meet again when there’s a chance!"

"It won’t have to wait long; if all goes well, we might meet as soon as tomorrow."

Seeing Huang Jun slightly puzzled, Liu Shiwei explained with a smile: "Chef Huang, there’s something you might not know. My daughter, Hanhan, the little girl who had such a delightful time playing with your Weiwei at Happy Beiqu Children’s Park last Saturday, is transferring to your kindergarten tomorrow, and she specifically requested to be in the same class as your twin daughters. You wouldn’t know, but since coming back from the park, Hanhan has been calling Weiwei her good friend and raving about the lime chicken wings you made. She’s been clamoring to transfer to Dorami Kindergarten these past few days, saying she wants to attend school with your Weiwei and have meals you cook, which put me in quite a fix, so I had to agree to come check it out first..."

Listening to Liu Shiwei, Huang Jun roughly understood the real reason for Liu Shiwei’s visit.

So it turns out Liu Shiwei came because of the school transfer for his daughter.

But what Huang Jun didn’t expect was that this matter arose because of him and Weiwei.

Even more unexpected was that the little girl they met at Happy Beiqu Children’s Park on Saturday was actually Liu Shiwei’s daughter, Hanhan.

Recalling that scene, Huang Jun’s mind conjured up Hanhan’s innocent and shy face, her longing for lime chicken wings, and her intimate interaction with their Weiwei...

At this moment, he couldn’t help but marvel at the wonder of fate, which had forged such a profound connection between their families through an accidental encounter.

Huang Jun’s eyes revealed a hint of joy: "So the little girl who had such a great time playing with my Weiwei at the park that day was Chairman Liu’s beloved daughter! This fate is truly indescribable..."

"Isn’t it just!"

Liu Shiwei nodded in agreement, his face brimming with a sincere smile, and continued: "Chef Huang, my daughter Hanhan is still young and rather introverted. As she adjusts, she might find many things unfamiliar; I hope you and your lively twin daughters will look after her well."

In fact, Liu Shiwei had his own small calculations.

As long as his daughter could cultivate a deep friendship with Huang Jun’s daughters, the interactions between the two families would naturally grow closer.

In doing so, it would not only deepen mutual understanding and trust, bringing more joy and warmth to both families, but also create more opportunities for him to taste Huang Jun’s culinary skills.

Alright, alright, he admitted.

Tasting Huang Jun’s cooking was his true purpose.

Thus.

He looked forward to both families visiting each other frequently and inviting each other over for meals.

That way, he could rightly enjoy Huang Jun’s meals.

Huang Jun, hearing his words, couldn’t help but feel slightly speechless.

A dignified corporation chairman personally asking him, a kitchen staff member, to take care of his daughter was indeed unexpected.

But as a father himself, he quickly understood Liu Shiwei’s heartfelt concern.

The reason Liu Shiwei did this was nothing more than deep love and concern for his daughter, hoping she would receive more care and attention in a new environment.

This love and concern is an emotional bond that every parent cannot give up, and it’s the most straightforward and sincere expression.

He fully understood the other’s feelings!

Therefore, he responded with a smile: "Chairman Liu, rest assured, as long as I can do it, I will take care of Hanhan."

"Chef Huang, with your words, I can truly be at ease!"

After a few pleasantries, Liu Shiwei bid farewell to Huang Jun and, with full anticipation and a touch of glee, quickly headed to the park entrance with Dong Yuantao.

Sitting in the driver’s seat awaiting Liu Shiwei’s grand arrival, Gu Yejun, spotting Liu Shiwei through the rearview mirror, immediately got out, quickly walked to the car door, slightly bent, and gently opened the backseat door: "Chairman Liu, please get in the car."

Liu Shiwei slightly nodded and casually entered the vehicle.

Gu Yejun swiftly and lightly shut the car door, turned to the driver’s seat, and, once Liu Shiwei and Dong Yuantao were settled, skillfully started the car.

At this time, Liu Shiwei picked up his phone and dialed Li Huizhen of Hu Jin Kindergarten.

A few seconds later...

The call connected!

On the other end, Li Huizhen’s familiar and friendly voice came through: "Chairman Liu, hello! It’s so rare to hear your voice, is there something you need to instruct us on? Are you concerned about Hanhan’s situation in the kindergarten? Rest assured, our entire staff is constantly attentive to Hanhan, ensuring she will not suffer any grievances..."

Although Li Huizhen was highly respected in kindergarten and in the limelight, she still maintained a humble and enthusiastic attitude in front of a celebrity like Liu Shiwei.

No way around it!

After all, Liu Shiwei is one of her key contributors!

And holds the power of decision-making!

So, she has no choice but to flatter him!

Before Li Huizhen could finish, Liu Shiwei interrupted with an indisputable tone: "Director Li, I’m calling not to inquire about Hanhan’s situation but to inform you to have Hanhan’s transfer documents ready. I must see the full transfer documents when I pick up Hanhan this afternoon."

"Huh? Transfer documents?"

Li Huizhen appeared surprised.

What does this mean?

Is Hanhan transferring?

A wave of inexplicable panic surged within her, making her momentarily doubt what she heard.

She hurriedly adjusted her mindset, trying to recall Liu Shiwei’s words to capture more information. She cautiously asked, "Chairman Liu, do you mean you intend to have Hanhan transfer? Is there something in the kindergarten she’s not adapting to, or is there another reason? Please let us know, and we will do our utmost to improve, ensuring that Hanhan can learn and grow happily here."

Liu Shiwei remained silent for a while, then slowly spoke: "Director Li, I have always recognized your work. But this time, Hanhan is transferring mainly because of her own idea. This morning, I took the time to personally visit and found that it suits my Hanhan quite well, so I agreed. Please expedite the transfer procedures for me!"

Hearing this, Li Huizhen felt a surge of unwillingness. She pursued, "Chairman Liu, can you tell me which kindergarten you plan to transfer Hanhan to?"

Liu Shiwei replied frankly: "Dorami Kindergarten!"

How could it be Dorami Kindergarten?

Why Dorami Kindergarten again?

Clearly, this kindergarten cannot compare with Hu Jin Kindergarten in terms of facilities or teaching staff, yet it not only receives the favor of the education bureau’s leaders but even Liu Shiwei, a member of Hu Jin Kindergarten’s board, wants to transfer his daughter there!

Where exactly did Hu Jin Kindergarten lose?

Is it because Hu Jin lacked something, or does Dorami have a particular allure for Liu Shiwei?

Li Huizhen was utterly baffled!

Couldn’t figure it out!

Truly couldn’t figure it out!

She couldn’t help but ask, "Chairman Liu, can you tell me the reason why you decided to transfer Hanhan to Dorami Kindergarten?"

"Actually, the main reason is the food made by Chef Huang in their kindergarten! His dishes have left a lasting impression on my daughter and me as well..." Liu Shiwei couldn’t help but express.

Chef Huang?

Him again!

The same parent who once applied at her kindergarten but was ridiculed and told couldn’t get hired anywhere in the city?!

Recalling how last time education bureau leaders endlessly praised Chef Huang’s culinary skills and expressed regret when she mentioned he once applied at her kindergarten but wasn’t hired.

And today, Liu Shiwei decided to transfer his daughter because of Chef Huang’s cooking...

At this moment, she finally realized that she once had the opportunity to have such a talent, but she didn’t cherish it, only regretting after losing it. There is nothing more painful in the world than this. If heaven could give her another chance, she would say three words to him, ’You stay’.

But unfortunately, there’s no cure for regret in this world!

Wait, can she perhaps...

An idea was budding in her mind.
