Chapter 11: Followed, Waiting For Updates
Editor: Henyee Translations
A few of them were still carrying backpacks and had childish faces.
"Little girl, how old are you? You're so cute."
"Where do you go to kindergarten? You're so good and obedient."
"There are so many people here. Don't leave casually. You're already Daddy and Mommy's helper at such a young age. You're amazing."
Xiao Ke said sweetly, "I'm three years old and haven't gone to kindergarten yet.
"Please wait a while longer for your egg fried rice. It'll be ready soon."
Several students giggled and said, "No hurry. Stop fussing and sit down."
"You guys are so busy here. If it weren't for the fact that school is starting soon, I'd want to come work here for the summer."
"Happy days are gone forever. I can only come and eat on weekends from now on."
School was starting in a week, and the girls had arranged to catch up on their homework together.
When they saw that there was delicious egg fried rice here, they decided to come over.
After all, it had just started, and there weren't many people around.
Xu Mo quickly made the egg fried rice. The fragrance alone made them exclaim.
"This egg fried rice lives up to its reputation. This smells so good."
"Oh my, I feel a fragrance dancing in my mouth. I can't even bear to eat it."
Xiao Ke had heard many people praising her father, but she still felt very happy.
Taking advantage of Xu Mo's rest, she quickly ran over and said, "Dad, you're really amazing."
"Everyone loves Daddy's egg fried rice. Me too."
Xu Mo squatted down and said, "Daddy will make even better food in the future. Let's work hard together!"
Xiao Ke nodded obediently and held out her little fist to touch her father's.
Seeing that the father and daughter were so close, Xu Nanjin smiled warmly.
Although she wanted to go over and say something, she felt embarrassed.
She wanted Xu Mo to smile back at her and fall in love sweetly.
They had lost each other years ago. They never contacted each other again.
Now, it was happening too quickly. They were getting married before they could even develop feelings for each other.
Boohoo, she wanted a relationship too.
Time passed quickly as Xu Mo interacted with his daughter.
It was still early in the day and many people had not had time to come over. They were relatively free now.
The students finished their egg fried rice and looked unsatisfied.
Seeing Xu Mo and Xiao Ke interacting, a more lively girl asked, "Boss, I wonder if you and that beautiful sister are husband and wife. Why aren't the two of you talking?"
"You're right. Had a fight? How could you upset Pretty Sister?"
"Come here, little girl. We'll teach you what to say."
Xiao Ke skipped over. She was just wondering why her parents weren't saying anything.
They looked at each other and realized they were both a little awkward.
They didn't argue. They just didn't know what to say.
Xu Mo walked over and asked, "How are you? Are you tired?"
The afterglow of the sun roasted the ground. He saw that Xu Nanjin's hair was already wet.
So he picked up a tissue and handed it over. "Wipe your sweat. Or you can go inside and get some air conditioning."
As much as he wanted to wipe her sweat, he couldn't bring himself to do it.
His actions were seen by the girls. They jeered, "Boss, can't you just help her wipe her sweat? It's just a matter of raising your hand."
Then they said to Xiao Ke, "Little kid, go and ask your father for help."
When Xu Nanjin heard this, she quickly took a tissue and wiped her sweat.
With so many people watching, she was embarrassed to ask Xu Mo to wipe her sweat.
She looked up and realized that Xu Mo was sweating more than her.
She raised her hand and said hesitantly, "Let me wipe your sweat."
Xu Mo was about to refuse when she had naturally extended her hand.
She moved gently, and soon the sweat on his forehead was wiped clean.
Although the weather was still hot, Xu Mo felt like a spring breeze.
It was just a simple wipe of sweat, but Xu Nanjin's heart was already pounding.
Looking at Xu Mo up close, she found him even more handsome. It was simply impossible to look at him directly.
When it was done, she turned around. Even her earlobes were red.
A handsome man and a beautiful woman were eye-catching to begin with, and their public display of affection made them even more excited.
The little girls all liked sweet love. They covered their mouths to control their screams.
Even Xiao Ke's eyes widened in surprise. Her mother was blushing.
But why blush? That's Dad.
There was silence for two or three seconds. Then the girls said excitedly.
"I love it. This must be how Sweetie falls in love."
"Boohoo, why did the boss get married so early? I can't imagine being with him anymore."
"I want to see them like this every day. I'll come back for egg fried rice tomorrow."
The egg fried rice was gone from the table. The girls were going home.
They pulled Xiao Ke and said, "Your father is too passive. You have to let him talk to Mommy more. That way, your relationship will be better."
"Exactly, exactly. They don't really talk to each other. You have to help so they can make up sooner."
Suddenly the voices dropped to a whisper. "You could do this. You could do this … and then that …"
Xu Mo did not know what they were talking about and could only shake his head helplessly.
Were all the children nowadays so good at socializing? They were so friendly.
Speaking of which, why weren't the girls in his class not so proactive back then? He had received several love letters, but he didn't know who wrote them after graduation.
Xu Nanjin finally calmed down and stole a glance at Xu Mo.
Why did he seem so unconcerned? Ahhh. Was she the only one who reacted?
It was so frustrating. Although they were husband and wife, their relationship was not progressing.
Xiao Ke listened to her sisters' lessons and nodded seriously.
She waved. "Goodbye, sisters. I'll remember."
The students stood and waved her away.
At this moment, a few more people came over to order egg fried rice. Xu Mo got busy again.
Xu Nanjin cleared the disposable dishes on the table and asked, "What were you guys talking about?"
Xiao Ke covered her mouth and said, "We have to keep it a secret. Mommy will find out tonight."
Xu Nanjin reached out and tapped her forehead. She smiled and said, "Xiao Ke has grown up so quickly. You even have secrets with Mommy."
She was not in a hurry even if her daughter did not say it now. How could she hide her thoughts? She would say it herself later.
Xiao Ke blinked her big eyes and stuck out her tongue. "Mommy, watch me tonight."
Then she ran off.
Ever since this batch of guests arrived, Xu Mo had not stopped.
The sky had long since turned dark, and the scent of fried eggs wafted through the street.
Seeing his booming business, others could only secretly envy him.
There were more and more people in the live-stream, and it felt good to see someone else's business booming.
"The owner's hands haven't stopped all night, have they? His stamina is incredible."
"Keep bragging. This shop owner is just a little better-looking. Are you guys there to eat or to see people?"
"Seconded. We also have a restaurant that makes really good egg fried rice. I don't believe he makes it that good."
"Everyone is concerned about whether the owner's egg fried rice is good or not. All I care about is whether the big brother who said he would fly there has already set off."
"What big brother? Why don't you look at the information? She's a big sister."
"That's interesting. She just said she wanted the owner's full profile. Follow. Let's see the result."
Everyone loved gossip. A notification of new followers appeared on the screen.
