Chapter 40
Yun Muqing was still angry over what just happened. Indignantly, she rolled her eyes at Chu Feng and said, “I’m not hungry.”
She eyed Duo Duo—who was gorging on the food—suspiciously; coaxing this little girl to eat was usually so difficult that even with Kentucky Fried Chicken as breakfast was not enough to get this little girl interested, so how was she so easily won over by a bowl of plain Yangchun noodles?
The noodles looked… they looked delicious indeed. Yun Muqing fixed her gaze on the bowl of delicious-looking noodles, and her stomach growled at that inappropriate moment.
Yun Muqing blushed.
“Eat it if you’re hungry. It’s not bad,” Chu Feng said calmly.
“I don’t want to eat it.” Yun Muqing pouted, then turned around and proudly walked away.
“Daddy, you are not doing it the right way.” Duo Duo blinked her big eyes, then began lecturing like an old person. “You should run over there right now and personally feed Mommy. Then, you should give Mommy a kiss and say, ‘Darling, please eat’.”
Chu Feng and Yun Muqing were stunned; meanwhile, Duo Duo looked pleased with herself and explained, “This is what happens in all the television shows. I am a professional ‘love consultant’...”
Yun Muqing blushed as she threw her daughter a glare. “From now one, stop watching those nonsensical television shows.” Kids nowadays sure have their heads filled with useless things.
Duo Duo looked like she had been wronged. “You were the one who always took control of the television to watch those Korean dramas and wouldn’t let me watch ‘Big Bear Little Bear’...”
“Eat your food!” Yun Muqing felt her face burn as she panicked and gave Duo Duo ‘serious warning’ glare. She immediately held up her bowl and focused on turning her frustration into her appetite for food; to have her dirty laundry aired in front of a manly man like Chu Feng was embarrassing.
Hmm, the taste was not bad… The bowl of Yangchun noodles quickly disappeared and not even the soup remained.
Chu Feng smiled lightly and asked confidently, “The taste is not bad, right?”
He was once the God of War of the Dragon Shield who took control of the battlefield, and was also well-known for his gluttony; everytime he was on duty, he would take seven to eight different flavors of the ration biscuits with him. Later, as he was tending to his wounds in the god-forsaken North Pole, food ingredients were scarce and time was plentiful, so he would often cook when he was bored and ended up becoming skilled in the culinary arts within three years.
Yun Muqing pursed her lips and merely commented, “It’s good enough to pass, barely the standard of cafeteria food.” Although she said that, she had finished her food and her bowl was sparkling clean.
Chu Feng smiled indifferently; he didn’t expose the proud woman.
After the meal, it was already six thirty in the morning, so Yun Muqing hurriedly tidied up, worried that Duo Duo would be late for school.
Suddenly, she received a text in her social media regarding news from the Education Ministry that stated from that day onward, kindergartens were to open one hour later. This was an attempt to ‘reduce educational pressure’ and give children a happy childhood.
“Yay! From now on, I can sleep longer!” Duo Duo jumped happily, looking ecstatic.
On the other hand, Yun Muqing looked puzzled and suspicious as she said, “What are these people doing? It was just yesterday when they made that big announcement about enhancing educational progress to make children become more competent from the starting the line, and now they are suddenly talking about easing the burden?”
“Why think so much? Let’s just go along with what the school has decided.” Chu Feng hugged his daughter with a look of indifference, hiding the fact that he was responsible for this.
Who would have known that all of these were the result of the father of this little girl?
The autumn weather was clear and refreshing, the gentle wind felt comfortably humid. Since there was no hurry to send Duo Duo to school, there was time to spare, so Chu Feng, Yun Muqing, and Duo Duo, a family of three walked along the lane. They strolled slowly and leisurely appreciated the flowers and grass by the road, watching as people came and went.
Yun Muqing felt an indescribable feeling of peace and happiness, a warmth in her heart that she couldn’t remember the last time she felt it as she leisurely took a walk, not having to think or care about anything else; it was a plain and simple happiness to her. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Duo Duo ran only a few steps before spreading her arms and gingerly running toward Chu Feng. “Daddy, hug me!”
“Alright!” Chu Feng immediately hugged the little girl in his arms and planted a kiss on her smooth little face.
Duo Duo laughed, behaving like a pampered child and said, “Dad, I want to be raised high up!”
“I want to ride a big horse!”
“I want to ride an airplane. I want to fly!”
