Chapter 75 Daddy, the Rich Lady is Here!
The little one cheerfully announced, and those heading to the mall’s basent food court suddenly paused. The mouth-watering aroma wafting from Lu Qin’s fried noodle stall drew the crowd like a magnet.
From having no one stop by at first, the line now stretched so long that the custors in the back were practically stepping on the heels of those in front.
“Boss Lu, how co you don’t have the chicken tofu flowers today? That stuff is addicting! I love it!”
“This iced mung bean soup is amazing! Just one sip, and I feel refreshed!”
“Haha, it’s great! Too much bubble tea is bad for you anyway, but this mung bean soup is nutritious, healthy, and not too sweet—perfect!”
“Boss Lu, how much for your little cutie here?” One of the custors joked, pointing at the little one.
The little girl looked up, wrinkling her cute little nose, and responded in her soft, sweet voice.
“Uncle, the little cutie’s not for sale! Selling little cuties is against the law! The police will co and arrest you~!”
The crowd burst into laughter. This little girl was just too witty, quick on her feet, and undeniably clever.
“Uncle, your fried noodles and mung bean soup are ready! Are you sure you don’t want to try the Imperial chicken wings? They’re super delicious and a best-seller!”
The custor hesitated for a mont. This little one was quite sothing—not only adorable but also a natural at upselling. He couldn’t resist her charms.
“Alright then, give an order of the chicken wings too.”
“Uncle, the twice-cooked pork is also really tasty! Want to try that too? You’ll regret it if you don’t~!”
“Uncle already ate dinner, I can’t eat that much.”
“Okay, then! Uncle, please scan the QR code to pay on your right!”
“How much is it?”
The little one lowered her head and tried to count on her fingers.
“Five plus five is ten, three-eight is Won’s Day, May 1st is Labor Day…”
The little cutie was struggling with the math!
Lu Qin quickly stepped in and announced the price.
“61 yuan.”
The custors couldn’t help but shower her with complints.
“Boss Lu, your little one is so smart! She’s already got the sales talk down pat!”
“That sweet little voice! If she asked to buy anything, I would!”
“After seeing this little cutie, I feel like going ho and scolding my own kids—the difference is just too big!”
A few custors, after visiting the supermarket, couldn’t resist offering the little one so snacks. Soon enough, she had a banana, an apple, a cheese stick, and a small pack of beef jerky in her hands.
Five minutes later, Shen Muyan and Fang Ya arrived just in ti to see the little one expertly helping with the business. Both were montarily stunned.
Fang Ya nudged Shen Muyan with her elbow, excitent written all over her face.
“Shen, the little one is better at doing business than you!”
“Probably sothing she learned from her dad,” Shen Muyan responded, glancing up to see Lu Qin completely focused on cooking another order of twice-cooked pork. His concentration was intense, and he didn’t stop for a second.
With so many custors, he hadn’t had a mont’s rest. The stall was squeezed into a corner, and there wasn’t much of a breeze. Sweat was starting to bead on Lu Qin’s forehead.
Shen Muyan reached into her Chanel purse, fingers brushing against a packet of tissues, but then paused. She rembered that they were divorced now, and handing him a tissue would be inappropriate.
Just then, the little one pulled out a tissue herself, her tiny arms raised high.
“Daddy! Let wipe your sweat!”
Lu Qin bent down, allowing the soft little hand to gently dab his forehead. Afterward, the little one held up her half-finished mung bean soup.
“Daddy! Have a sip to cool down!”
Lu Qin took a sip. It was sweet—sweeter because it was fed to him by his own precious daughter.
Shen Muyan stood there, watching the scene, her heart filled with an inexplicable mix of emotions.
“Tsk tsk tsk,” Fang Ya said enviously, “the bond between this father and daughter is so heartwarming.”
Click, click, click.
The tender mont was too beautiful to ignore, and soone in the crowd couldn’t resist snapping a few photos of the sweet scene. With both of them being so photogenic, these pictures could easily be turned into wallpapers after a little editing.
Suddenly, Shen Muyan stepped forward, her cool voice breaking through the crowd.
“Excuse , could you send those pictures you just took?”
“Huh? Oh, sure! Of course!”
The young man turned around and was stunned for a second when he saw an incredibly beautiful woman with model-like features talking to him. His brain montarily short-circuited, and he could only stamr out a response.
By the ti he ca back to his senses, he felt a rush of happiness. This chance encounter was too good to be true—it was almost like a dream!
He didn’t dare look directly at Shen Muyan, stealing only quick glances. She was just too stunning, with her flawless figure, perfect proportions, and a cold, elegant deanor. For soone less confident, eting her gaze would be impossible.
The young man nervously pulled out his phone, while Shen Muyan already had her QR code scanning interface ready. His heart raced. Could this stunning beauty really be in such a hurry to add him on WeChat? Finally mustering the courage to steal a glance at her elegant, flawless face, he noticed that her eyes remained cold and indifferent. Her expression lacked any warmth.
He thought, Maybe that’s just her personality. Regardless, he figured, as long as I add her on WeChat, we can talk later. He quickly pulled up his QR code and watched her scan it. Monts later, he saw the friend request go through.
“Please send the original photos,” Shen Muyan said.
“Oh, okay!”
The young man sent the images over, only to see her turn away and leave without a second glance. Staring at his phone in disbelief, he looked at her profile picture, still feeling like the whole encounter wasn’t real.
Cradling his phone like a treasure, he thought to himself, I’ll talk to her later.
Just as he was about to strike up a conversation, he noticed a red exclamation mark next to his ssage.
Confused, he read the ssage.
[This user has enabled friend verification. You’re not their friend. Please send a friend request first to start a chat.].
The young man stood frozen, eyes wide in shock. I’ve been deleted? It dawned on him. I was just a tool! She only wanted the photos!
Nearby, Fang Ya passed by leisurely, shaking her head, so ruthless!
As they approached Lu Qin’s stall, they saw the little girl happily helping out. She was busily packing an order of fried noodles while sweetly promoting the twice-cooked pork to a custor.
“Auntie, you should try my dad’s twice-cooked pork! It’s fresh and delicious. I can eat two bowls of rice with it!”
Her soft, sweet voice, coupled with her adorable, rosy face and sparkling eyes, made her irresistible. Who could say no to that?
The custor smiled and quickly added the dish to her order, bringing the little girl even more joy. So regular custors, already familiar with Lu Qin’s tasty food, had co planning to buy a lot. However, they couldn’t resist having the little cutie give them her adorable sales pitch, so they deliberately ordered less at first.
Lu Qin let his daughter take the lead, allowing her to develop her little businesswoman persona. The little one seed to be having the ti of her life, thoroughly enjoying the experience of helping her dad at the stall.
Then, Shen Muyan arrived at the stand, wearing a polka-dot chiffon blouse paired with a sleek black pencil skirt with a side slit, which highlighted her long, slender legs. Her presence imdiately drew attention from those nearby. She was stunning—her delicate features, icy elegance, and perfect figure were all impossible to ignore.
She wasn’t even wearing much makeup, just a touch of rose-colored lipstick, but she was still effortlessly captivating. If a perfect score was 100, she’d easily score a solid 98.
So regulars recognized her.
Wasn’t this Yao Yao’s mom, Lu Qin’s ex-wife?
Shen Muyan walked over with her usual cold deanor, but as her eyes fell on Lu Qin and their daughter, her gaze softened.
The little one looked up, noticing her mother’s familiar figure, and blurted out without thinking. “Daddy, the rich lady is here!”
