Chapter 502 - 463: Like a Family of Four
"I smell something delicious..."
Qingqing and Weiwei, with their keen little noses, caught the enticing aroma wafting from the kitchen. Excitedly, they dashed off, their little legs moving swiftly, heading straight for the scent—the kitchen.
At the kitchen door, hey, they were stopped by a sliding glass door.
But of course, this was no obstacle for the sisters...
With a little stretch of their hands, Qingqing and Weiwei lightly placed their small hands on the doorknob, and with a slight push, the door silently slid open a bit.
The next second...
Two little heads impatiently squeezed through the crack in the door, peeking inside...
Upon hearing the subtle sound, Huang Jun’s lips curled into an indulgent smile. Turning his head, he was greeted by two innocent and expectant little faces, and couldn’t help but chuckle: "Oh, oh my, look at my two little gluttons, their noses sharper than anyone else’s, being drawn by the scent so quickly..."
Though the term "little gluttons" was fitting, they truly couldn’t take it to heart...
Qingqing pouted, earnestly correcting, "Papa, I’m not a glutton, I’m Qingqing..."
"Exactly!" Weiwei, unwilling to be left behind, nodded fervently, her bright eyes sparkling with defiance, defending herself: "Weiwei is not a glutton either, Weiwei has her own name!"
After saying that, Weiwei was once again completely captivated by the enticing aroma, involuntarily extending her pink tongue to lightly lick the corner of her mouth, then asked with anticipation, "Papa, is breakfast ready? Can we eat already?"
"Almost, almost, it’ll be ready in a moment..."
Huang Jun gently responded, skillfully flipping the golden, crispy mixed bread crumb and egg pancake in the pan.
The golden pancake emitted a happy "sizzle" sound in the pan, accompanied by a wafting fragrance that tugged at the heartstrings of the two little ones, making them involuntarily swallow their saliva, with even a glistening anticipation hanging at the corners of their mouths.
Suddenly, Weiwei’s gaze turned to Qingqing, and noticing a glistening droplet of saliva at Qingqing’s mouth corner, she couldn’t help but giggle, playfully saying, "Sister, there’s a ’little stream’ flowing at your mouth corner..."
Hearing this, Qingqing instinctively wiped her mouth, then also noticed the few glistening droplets at Weiwei’s mouth corner, and immediately laughed in return: "Sister, you dare laugh at me, you’re almost turning into a ’pearl necklace’!"
Weiwei also touched her mouth corner, and the two of them seemed to say: "Hehe, we’re both the same!"
Huang Jun interjected at the right moment: "Alright, little gluttons, go and wash your hands clean first, then go sit properly at the dining table. Once it’s ready, you can start eating..."
"Yay!"
Qingqing and Weiwei cheered in unison and then, like two joyful little deer, excitedly dashed off to the bathroom.
Soon, they completed their hand-washing task at lightning speed, then ran like the wind to the dining table, sat down properly, and eagerly kept their eyes on the direction of the kitchen...
Full of anticipation!
"Why isn’t it ready yet?"
Weiwei couldn’t help mumbling softly, her little hands unconsciously tapping on the table.
Getting a bit impatient!
Qingqing nodded her little head slightly: "Yeah, I’ve washed my hands and sat properly, how come Papa hasn’t served the meal yet? My little tummy is already growling..."
As she spoke, her little nose wrinkled, capturing the increasingly thick aroma in the air.
At this moment.
Huang Jun walked out with a plate of golden, fragrant mixed bread crumb and egg pancakes.
Seeing the anxious looks on the two little ones, he couldn’t help but smile and say: "Alright, alright, good food is worth the wait, come, try Daddy’s cooking."
Qingqing and Weiwei’s eyes immediately lit up, their little fingers pointed excitedly at the breakfast: "Wow, what is this? It looks so delicious!"
As they spoke, they blinked at Huang Jun, their faces already proclaiming "I want to eat" even before their mouths said it.
Huang Jun smiled and explained: "These are mixed bread crumb and egg pancakes, with your favorite bread crumbs, peas, carrots, and ham in them, plus fragrant eggs."
"Come, eat up!"
He placed the prepared breakfast in front of the two of them.
"Thank you, Papa, now I’ll dig in~"
With that, Qingqing and Weiwei eagerly picked up their forks, gently stabbed a piece of mixed bread crumb and egg pancake, and brought it to their mouths, taking a big bite...
The crispy bread crumbs, tender peas, sweet carrot bits, and savory ham pieces, mixed with the aroma of eggs and sesame, instantly blossomed on their taste buds, making them close their eyes involuntarily, revealing delighted little expressions...
"Papa, amazing! So yummy!" Qingqing looked at Huang Jun with admiration, giving a thumbs-up.
Weiwei also nodded repeatedly, mumbling: "Mmm mmm mmm, it’s super delicious, I want more later!"
"Alright, eat slowly, there’s more! I’ll make sure you eat till you’re full!"
Huang Jun beamed, adding another colorful heap of mixed bread crumb and egg pancakes into their bowls, and gently reminded: "Don’t forget to drink that nutritious cereal, it’s good for you!"
"Mmm, got it!"
The two obediently picked up their spoons, gently scooping a spoonful of cereal into their mouths, their faces deepening with happy and satisfied smiles.
Huang Jun also picked up a piece of mixed bread crumb and egg pancake and ate.
The first bite revealed the crispness of the outer egg layer, followed by the softness of the bread crumbs, creating a wonderful contrast in texture. At the same time, the crispness of the bread crumbs and the richness of the egg blended perfectly, full of layers.
As he chewed...
The freshness of the peas burst forth, with a sweet and juicy flavor, while the carrot bits added their natural sweetness and crispy texture, bringing a touch of refreshment to the pancake.
Next is the diced ham sausage, salty and savory, with a firm meaty texture and a hint of smoky flavor. Compared to those fresh vegetables and crispy steamed buns, it’s like the perfect seasoning, balanced just right.
The most amazing thing is that there are sesame seeds hidden underneath the pancake!
As you chew...
The aroma of sesame quietly emerges, blending with the rich fragrance of eggs, layering scent upon scent...
It’s one bite after another, from crisp to soft, from fresh to savory, then to the sesame aroma, with each layer presenting a new surprise, so delicious you can’t stop!
"It really is quite good..."
Huang Jun couldn’t help but have a few more pieces.
After everyone had their fill, Huang Jun looked at the plate and was surprised to find two pieces left: "Oh wow, we made too much. There are still several pieces of assorted diced steamed bun and egg pancake left!"
Qingqing blinked her big eyes and suddenly suggested: "Daddy, let’s take some to Miss Yang!"
"Oh, why are you so generous today?" Huang Jun looked at Qingqing in surprise.
"Miss Yang took us to the aquarium, we should thank her~" Qingqing explained seriously.
Weiwei also nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, Miss Yang has been very nice to us, we should be nice to her too."
So, it was about mutual gratitude...
Huang Jun smiled knowingly: "You’re such considerate children. Alright, we’ll do as you say!"
With that, he picked up the remaining assorted diced steamed bun and egg pancakes from the plate, carefully placing them in a thermal lunch box, intending to take it to Yang Yuxi later.
Afterwards, he tidied up the dishes, checked the house’s doors, windows, and gas for safety, and then took the little ones by the hand, their laughter filling the air as they stepped out of the house. They took the elevator straight to the parking area and settled into the familiar Wuling car.
As he started the engine skillfully, the Wuling car followed the navigation, slowly making its way to the aquarium.
Along the way, the scenery outside the car window passed by like movie frames, while inside, the car was filled with a strong sense of family and anticipation.
After about thirty minutes of a warm journey...
The family of three arrived smoothly at the aquarium parking lot.
Huang Jun parked the car and got out with the little ones.
"Are we there yet?" Qingqing asked, holding Huang Jun’s hand, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.
"Yes, we are here."
Huang Jun replied with a smile, then took their little hands and headed towards the entrance of the aquarium.
Before they even reached the entrance, a familiar figure came into view—Yang Yuxi, dressed in a fresh and elegant blue dress, standing gracefully at the entrance, seemingly blending in with the aquatic decorations around her, adding to the charm.
She waved enthusiastically with her signature smile: "Over here, come quickly!"
"Miss Yang!"
Qingqing and Weiwei both exclaimed with joy, their little hands slipping away from Huang Jun’s grasp, like two happy little birds fluttering their wings to rush towards Yang Yuxi.
"Qingqing, Weiwei, you’re finally here!"
Yang Yuxi’s face was filled with a gentle smile as she quickly crouched down, spreading her arms wide to embrace them warmly.
"Miss Yang, we brought you breakfast." Huang Jun approached, handing the thermal lunch box to Miss Yang Yuxi. "The children wanted to thank you for inviting them to the aquarium."
Yang Yuxi took the lunch box, her smile even brighter: "Oh my, you are so thoughtful, this is truly a delightful surprise for me!"
As she said this, she opened the lunch box, and a tempting aroma instantly wafted out, revealing the visually appealing assorted diced steamed bun and egg pancake.
She praised, "It looks really good, I’m getting a bit hungry."
Well!
She hadn’t had breakfast and was indeed hungry!
"Miss Yang, please try it now!" Qingqing and Weiwei said expectantly, not forgetting to promote it: "Let me tell you, this assorted diced steamed bun and egg pancake is super delicious, I had three pieces myself!"
"It smells so good, it must be delicious..."
Yang Yuxi smiled and picked up a piece of the assorted diced steamed bun and egg pancake, taking an elegant bite.
The crispy texture and rich flavor immediately lit up her eyes, revealing a "just as expected" expression on her face: "Hmm, it’s really good, just as delicious as always..."
The surrounding tourists were also drawn by the tempting aroma. Some even stopped and curiously looked in their direction.
Seeing Yang Yuxi holding the golden enticing assorted diced steamed bun and egg pancake, smelling the aroma filling the air, they couldn’t help but swallow.
Initially wanting to ask where it was bought, they noticed the thermal lunch box in Yang Yuxi’s other hand and realized it was homemade "loving breakfast", not available for purchase...
So, with a trace of envy and regret, they silently dropped their inquiry and continued their aquarium visit.
After finishing, Yang Yuxi contentedly wiped her mouth and smiled at Huang Jun and the two kids: "Alright, let’s go inside. There are so many exciting things waiting for us in the aquarium!"
"Yay~"
Qingqing and Weiwei exclaimed excitedly, holding hands, with Weiwei naturally grabbing Huang Jun’s hand and Qingqing tightly holding onto Yang Yuxi’s hand.
The four of them lined up, walking briskly towards the aquarium entrance.
To outsiders, these four looked almost like a family of four~
