Gourmet: Twins' Father and Chef of the Kindergarten-Chapter 74 - 71: What Bad Intentions Could Kids Possibly Have?
As soon as they entered the classroom...
Liang Yinqiu discreetly gave Yang Yuxi a meaningful glance.
Yang Yuxi understood instantly.
She smiled at the adorable children in front of her, clapped her hands gently, and guided them warmly: "Children!"
"The leaders from the Education Bureau have come to our classroom to visit you. Let’s welcome them with a warm round of applause, shall we?"
"Yes!"
Although the children didn’t quite understand the specifics of the Education Bureau, they complied readily with Yang Yuxi, eager to eat breakfast soon, and clapped together obediently.
The crisp applause resonated continuously throughout the classroom with a "clap clap" sound.
Wan Zhenhong, with a warm smile on his face, waved at the children, saying, "Hello, children. I am the Deputy Director of the City Education Bureau. You can call me Uncle Wan..."
Trying to showcase his affability in front of the children and close the gap between them, but before he finished speaking, he heard a tender voice in his ear: "Hello, Director Grandpa..."
"???????"
Aware of the situation, Wan Zhenhong’s gentle smile froze in midair: "......"
Many children in the classroom also heard this loud greeting. Although they weren’t skilled at interacting with strangers, since Liu Yuanyuan took the lead and they remembered their parents’ and teachers’ teachings to respond politely when someone greets them, they echoed: "Hello, Director Grandpa!"
On the side, Xin Jinghui and other Education Bureau leaders nodded and gestured to the children while turning to face the 44-year-old Wan Zhenhong ahead: "???????"
Seeing a trace of embarrassment flash across Wan Zhenhong’s face, Liang Yinqiu’s heart tightened a bit. It must have been her entrance that led to this uncontrollable situation.
Hopefully, Director Wan won’t dwell on this small episode!
Yang Yuxi and the other teachers shared the same sentiments.
Looking at these innocent little children, Wan Zhenhong suddenly felt a bit bewildered.
He was barely over forty!
His second daughter had just started kindergarten in the small class...
Yet...
Yet he was affectionately called "grandpa" by these kids, experiencing being a "grandpa" early.
Why did it feel somewhat dismal?
What could he do?
He could only blame his prematurely grey hair for misleading the children.
Besides, what ill intentions could children have?
For a fleeting moment, Wan Zhenhong considered: should he dye his hair?
After a brief daze, he quickly composed himself, smiled warmly, waved to the children, and asked, "Children, what are you eating for breakfast today?"
"Purple sweet potato egg rolls!"
Saying this, the children couldn’t help but stretch their necks, looking over at the table with purple sweet potato egg rolls.
Wan Zhenhong and other leaders followed the children’s gaze...
Only to see a large table adorned with visually striking purple sweet potato egg rolls.
The diameter of these rolls ranged from three to four centimeters, with moderate thickness, each roll showing exquisite perfection.
The deep purple stripes of the sweet potato displayed fluid curves amidst the curls, contrasting sharply with the golden egg covering, presenting a unique color and texture.
Unforgettable at first sight!
A gentle sniff...
The light egg scent intertwined with rich dairy, releasing a refreshing aroma.
The slight sweetness of the purple sweet potato seemed like a gift from nature, adding an extra touch of flavor to the dish.
This aroma wasn’t particularly strong at first, but upon closer whiff, it intensified, emanating a captivating fragrance that made their mouths water, urging them to taste it.
Seeing this, Liang Yinqiu was perceptive.
She quickly brought over two plates of purple sweet potato egg rolls, delightedly saying, "Director Wan, esteemed leaders, these are prepared as breakfast for the children, purple sweet potato egg rolls. Please taste and see how they are!"
"This..."
Faced with the enticingly colorful and aromatic egg rolls, Wan Zhenhong and other leaders subconsciously swallowed, resisting the temptation: "This... might not be appropriate!"
"This is the children’s breakfast. If we eat it, wouldn’t it..."
The words weren’t finished!
Interrupted by Liang Yinqiu, who said, "Director Wan, aren’t you here to inspect the food safety at our kindergarten? If you don’t taste it, how can you understand comprehensively?"
"Don’t worry, I had extra prepared for breakfast today, so your tasting won’t affect the children’s portion."
Wan Zhenhong and other leaders were momentarily stunned upon hearing this.
Upon reflection, it made sense!
If they don’t taste it, how can they understand thoroughly?
"For the sake of this inspection, I’ll just try a bit first,"
Wan Zhenhong nodded solemnly.
"Indeed, for work, we should try it too!" Xin Jinghui, along with other leaders, nodded in agreement.
If their throats weren’t wildly swallowing saliva, perhaps Liang Yinqiu and other school leaders might have believed their words.
Wan Zhenhong and the others reached out, picked up a purple sweet potato egg roll, and took a bite...
The egg roll was soft and fragrant; the sweet and sticky purple sweet potato combined in one mouthful, bringing instant happiness!
The elastic egg covering felt like the smooth skin of a lady, enticing one to savor meticulously.
The robust egg aroma subtly revealed hints of dairy.
The purple sweet potato’s texture was soft and melted upon entry, perfectly blending with the fragrant egg roll.
This delicate texture and sweet yet not overwhelming taste immersed one in enjoyment while savoring it, appreciating the wonderful experience with each detail.
In the blink of an eye.
He was enamored with the delicious purple sweet potato egg rolls.
In the blink of an eye.
One purple sweet potato egg roll was gone.
"Director Liang, may I have another..."
At this time, he had completely shed the authoritative demeanor of a director.
The other Education Bureau leaders were the same!
"Principal Mama, we were sitting and waiting first, the tasty purple sweet potato egg rolls should be given to us first..."
Feeling famished, an impatient Liu Yuanyuan made a childish, pleading call, eyeing the egg rolls in the leaders’ hands with occasional drool slipping down. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
"Yes, we’ve been waiting a long time, it should be us who get to eat first!"
"Exactly, we are children, we should eat first!"
"..."
The other children, long unable to resist the aroma, now seeing the leaders first enjoying the egg rolls, grew anxious, making tender voices afraid of being forgotten, worried the leaders might finish them all.
Hearing the youthful, somewhat pleading voices, Wan Zhenhong and others instinctively turned to look...
Seeing rows of children sitting properly, now were watching them with eager eyes, as if fearing they’d eat everything.
At that moment, a wave of immense guilt surged in the hearts of Wan Zhenhong and the other leaders.
As leaders of the Education Bureau, actually "competing" with children for food...
If word got out, it might make others laugh their heads off!
In that moment of self-condemnation, only then could they relieve some of their guilt.
"Don’t worry, children! No one is taking your food, the teachers will bring it over for you!"
Watching the anxious children, Yang Yuxi also grew flustered, quickly bringing the purple sweet potato egg rolls over with Xie Jianing and Wang Wenxia, gently placing them in front of the children.
With teachers starting to distribute breakfast, the children settled down, satisfied smiles appearing on their faces.
