"PFFT, HAHAHA..."
Ye Shen laughed heartily from the driver’s seat. "Exactly," he agreed. "My brother’s lovesickness is beyond cure. He’s in too deep, and no dicine can save him—not even if Hua Tuo himself were reincarnated."
Si Mingjing laughed as well, her smile enigmatic. After getting out of the car, she went to the kindergarten to pick up Xiaobai.
Today, she was once again the first "parent" to pick Xiaobai up.
Ye Shen saw his little nephew strutting with the swagger of an idiot, holding Si Mingjing’s hand, walking out of the school in style. To him, this sight was as impressive as his brother touring the whole country at Undersea World.
Once the tall and the small were in the car, Ye Shen turned his head to ask his precious little nephew in the back seat, "Xiaobai, are you happy that Miss Si picked you up today?"
Ye Nianbai’s heart bubbled with joy, and he haughtily snorted, "It’s only natural for my woman to pick up from school. Jingjing, I’ll buy you a cake."
"Wow, Xiaobai really cares for . I’ve never had cake before."
Ye Nianbai’s voice was filled with smug pride, "If I don’t care for you, then who will I care for?"
Si Mingjing couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
After that, Ye Shen, who was driving, drove to a cake shop called Sweet Dragon and parked in a spot in front.
Ye Nianbai hopped out of the car with his little short legs, holding onto Si Mingjing’s soft and warm hand, and walked into the cake shop with an air of confidence.
The staff recognized Ye Nianbai. As soon as the little guy walked in, they ca over to greet him with a smile.
"Young master, your favorite toast bread, freshly baked. Shall I pack so for you?"
"No need. Today, I’m buying cake to reward my woman. She’s been super good today."
Ye Nianbai, pulling Si Mingjing along, arrived in front of the glass showcase filled with cakes, exuding the air of a rich and privileged young master.
"Jingjing, which one do you like? They all taste good. Daddy said that my mommy loved the cakes from this cake shop the most, so I like them too."
It was unclear if it was because the cakes were genuinely delicious or because they held mories of his mother, but either way, Ye Nianbai had only eaten cakes from this cake shop since he was little.
The cakes he loved were, in his opinion, the best in the world. None from any other cake shop could even compare.
Ye Nianbai wanted to introduce the tastiest cake in the world to his woman. That’s what a good man does!
Ye Shen, car keys in hand, stood aside and explained, "My sister-in-law used to love the cakes from this shop. Four years ago, the pastry chef here won two hundred million in the lottery. He beca an instant rich man and didn’t want to continue being a pastry chef. So, my brother offered him a monthly salary of thirty million just to keep him."
"A pastry chef with a monthly salary of thirty million?"
Si Mingjing couldn’t imagine it. Indeed, poverty limited her imagination.
Ye Shen also felt the pinch, but his brother didn’t care. "There was no choice. My little nephew loves it. Plus, my brother always says, what kind of man would he be if my sister-in-law ever ca back and couldn’t have her favorite cake? That’s why I say his lovesickness is incurable, isn’t it?"
Si Mingjing stood in front of the showcase, her phoenix eyes slightly curved as she stared at the various cakes in the glass cabinet. "Each one looks tempting. Xiaobai, do you have any recomndations for ? I’ve never had cake before and don’t know which flavor would taste good."
The foolish son of the landlord pointed at all the cakes in the showcase and said, "Jingjing, we could buy all the cakes and take them ho. Then you can try them one by one, and eventually, you’ll find out what flavor you like."
"We shouldn’t waste."
Si Mingjing earnestly lectured the child.
Her life experience on Prison Star had taught her that food was life, and wasting it was shaful.
The foolish son of the landlord said, "I’ve decided already!"
