Daddy's Gourmet Shop

Chapter 651 - 635: A Special Birthday Gift

Xuanxuan and Qianqian were eating the most happily.But the two little ones had already eaten quite a lot, so their tummies were full, still, their little heads kept turning towards the direction of the cake.

They perfectly demonstrated what it means to have "a belly full but eyes hungry"!

Huang Tao never had much interest in cakes and sweets, so he just tasted a few bites, and then he saw Ye Wen sitting beside him scraping all the cream off the cake, only eating the cake itself.

This scene made Huang Tao chuckle silently, "Why don’t you eat the cream? Are you trying to lose weight?"

Huang Tao looked at her seriously, yet he couldn’t see any need for her to lose weight.

Ye Wen blushed under his unabashed gaze, picking up the cake plate to cover her face.

Aye!

Life’s hard enough as it is!

As a lover of beauty, she has always been controlling her figure, otherwise, how could she not like eating the sweet, smooth cream?

Besides, having been enjoying Huang Tao’s food these past few days, the weight she had managed to lose over the Chinese New Year had rebounded a bit, and she had gained two pounds.

So,

to be able to continue eating Huang Tao’s food in the future, she had to restrain herself with other delicacies.

"Well, I’ve eaten too much tonight, need to lose weight."

As she spoke, she subconsciously touched her stomach.

At this moment,

Xuanxuan and Qianqian suddenly reached out and touched Ye Wen’s pretty face.

Ye Wen was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized, reaching up to touch her face, and found it was covered with creamy cream!

A bystander, Huang Tao chuckled.

However...

Huang Tao’s happiness lasted just a second before his face was also smeared with cream by the two little ones.

Huang Tao: "..."

"Alright! You two little rascals."

Huang Tao deliberately raised his plate, which still had some cake and cream.

Of course.

He didn’t foolishly throw it, just pretended to scare the little ones.

But unfortunately,

this trick didn’t work.

Xuanxuan, who had witnessed her dad use this trick before, grabbed Qianqian, who was about to flee, and whispered a few words in her ear, making Qianqian’s eyes widen.

Then...

The two little culprits looked at Huang Tao with mischievous smiles, tongues playfully sticking out at him.

Oh, little you...

Not only were they unafraid, they even openly challenged him.

Huang Tao looked at the pair of little rascals with a hint of smirk and a hint of annoyance in their expressions, laughing silently; of course, retaliating was out of the question, lest he make the little ones cry, which would be bad. He could only make light verbal threats to maintain his parent authority: "You two little ones, just wait and see how I deal with you..."

Just as he was about to take action,

Ye Wen attacked and slathered some cream on his face, giggling as she provocatively glanced at Huang Tao...

It was no surprise, he knew he’d been creamed by Ye Wen once again.

"Alright, you all take me for a sick cat since the tiger hasn’t shown its power..."

He scraped a bit of cream from the cake plate with a smile and gave chase to Ye Wen.

Preparing to "make an example for the others."

She saw this and quickly turned and fled.

Xuanxuan and Qianqian also started shouting and running about.

The others, watching this scene, couldn’t resist joining in the fray.

In an instant...

The shop was abuzz with noise and constant laughter.

With the playful banter over and the birthday cake eaten, Xuanxuan’s 5th birthday celebration was pretty much over.

And it was getting late.

Xuanxuan and Qianqian unwrapped all the birthday gifts they received tonight one by one, pondering which one to play with first.

Finally.

The two little ones set their sights on the tablet gifted by Jiang Chao.

They then nestled together on a dining chair, heads leaning on each other, shoulders touching, engrossed in playing with the tablet.

Usually, Huang Tao doesn’t allow her to play with devices like computers or phones, to prevent affecting her eyesight, but this color e-ink tablet is eye-friendly and more suitable for children.

So.

He consented to let her play for a while.

Jiangling, seeing the two little ones enjoying themselves immensely, suddenly recalled that among all those gifts, it seemed none were from Huang Tao. Curiously he asked, "Xuanxuan, what did your dad get you for your birthday?"

This question left Xuanxuan momentarily speechless.

Today was busy with the new shop opening, there wasn’t time to go out with her, it seemed...

No birthday gift for her either...

Xuanxuan looked puzzledly at Huang Tao, and asked, "Daddy, did you not get me a birthday gift?"

This prompted Jiangling to realize, slightly surprised, he looked at Huang Tao: "Boss Huang, did you really not buy Xuanxuan a birthday gift?"

In his heart, Huang Tao was a doting dad, everything revolved around Xuanxuan, so he found it quite incredible!

No way, no way...

Could it be that even Boss Huang gets confused sometimes?

He even forgot to prepare a birthday gift for Xuanxuan?

Huang Tao smiled, maintaining the mystery, "Of course I prepared a birthday gift, in a bit I’ll take Xuanxuan there."

"Jiangling, why don’t you and Qianqian come too? And Ye Wen, do you want to join as well? I’ll drop you off later."

"Sure!"

With that invitation, Jiangling and Ye Wen gladly agreed.

After all, tomorrow is Sunday, so they can stay up a bit later.

Of course.

The main thing is to see what birthday present Huang Tao has for Xuanxuan!

Who could resist being curious when Huang Tao made it such a mystery!

Huang Tao waved to the two little ones: "Xuanxuan, Qianqian, stop playing, let’s go!"

"Okay, coming!"

Xuanxuan obediently put down the tablet, grabbed Qianqian’s hand, and followed Huang Tao out the door.

Huang Tao drove his own BYD electric car, carrying Xuanxuan, Ye Wen, Huang Yide, and Song Cailian, heading to the suburbs first.

Jiangling drove his Volkswagen, carrying Qianqian, and followed closely behind.

After about twenty minutes of driving, Huang Tao turned into a side road and finally stopped at a parking spot near a place that looked like a park.

Ye Wen looked outside through the car window and immediately saw the neon logo hanging above the entrance, a touch of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes.

"Oh, isn’t this Happy Ha Le Children’s Park? Is the birthday gift you mentioned here? But it’s closed..."

Indeed.

Huang Tao had brought them to an outdoor children’s amusement park!

But the problem is...

It’s already past ten o’clock; the park’s business hours had long ended!

Inside, it was dark, with only the neon logo on the gate and the lights in the security room still on.

"You’ll find out soon, let’s get out of the car first!"

Huang Tao just smiled and didn’t explain much to Ye Wen. He got out of the car, opened the rear door, and carried Xuanxuan out, asking her parents to get out as well.

Just then Jiangling and his daughter also arrived at the destination and joined them.

Just at this moment.

A middle-aged man in a black down coat ran out of the security room, greeting Huang Tao warmly: "Mr. Huang, I guessed it was you."

Huang Tao nodded: "Boss Yang, sorry to keep you waiting, and thank you for the trouble."

This Boss Yang is the owner of Happy Ha Le Children’s Park. Huang Tao learned from the internet that this amusement park, located in the suburbs, offers night-time private bookings, so he contacted them and arranged tonight’s event.

Of course.

The price is naturally not cheap.

But to give Xuanxuan a beautiful and memorable birthday!

It’s worth spending some money!

Boss Yang laughed heartily: "Boss Huang, you’re too kind; opening a business means no trouble at all. I should be thanking you for supporting my business!"

While speaking.

Manager Yang pressed the remote control for the electric gate at the amusement park entrance, and the electric gate slowly began to open.

At this point.

Ye Wen and Jiangling started to understand.

Huang Tao took Xuanxuan’s hand, Xuanxuan took Ye Wen’s hand, and the group walked towards the amusement park’s entrance.

Pop, pop!

Suddenly, all the lights in the amusement park came on, instantly dispelling the darkness ahead, and cheerful music began to play, echoing throughout the park.

Not far off to the right, little cars were slowly coming along the moving tracks with a "beep, beep, beep" sound.

Ahead of them, the colorful lights of the carousel were flashing.

On the left road, a procession of fairy tale characters dressed in costumes sang and danced merrily.

Of course, they are the performers from Happy Ha Le Children’s Park.

At this moment...

The previously dead Happy Ha Le Children’s Park suddenly seemed to "come alive," bustling with activity.

"Ah!"

Even though Ye Wen, Jiangling, and the others were a little mentally prepared, they were still amazed by the scene before them and couldn’t help showing a hint of surprise.

They never imagined that Huang Tao had prepared such a unique birthday gift for Xuanxuan.

Qianqian’s eyes were filled with surprise mixed with joy, with joy mixed with a touch of envy.

Envying Xuanxuan!

Envying even more that Xuanxuan has a dad who puts so much thought into her birthday present!

Boom!

Boom!

Two dazzling fireworks suddenly blossomed in the night sky.

Huang Tao squatted down, touched Xuanxuan’s little face flushed with excitement, and said, "Darling, go play, take Qianqian with you and play together!"

"Mm-hmm~"

Xuanxuan nodded eagerly, reaching out to grab Qianqian’s little hand beside her, and said, "Qianqian, let’s go!"

"Alright!"

The two little ones, hand in hand, ran towards where the carousel was.

Over there, staff were waiting to serve them at any time.

At this moment, Happy Ha Le Children’s Park was exclusively for these two little ones!

Huang Tao stood up again, smiling at Ye Wen beside him: "Ye Wen, why don’t you go play with them too!"

"No, no, I’m not that childish."

Ye Wen pouted and glanced at Huang Tao.

Alright!

She admits that her inner child is still there, and she wants to play too.

But in front of the person she likes, she feels a bit shy, so she maintains a reserved demeanor.

"Ye, let’s go together!"

Song Cailian, young at heart despite her age, laughed invitingly: "Just consider it as keeping me company!"

Song Cailian took Ye Wen’s hand and hurriedly chased after the two little ones, shouting as she ran: "Xuanxuan, Qianqian, wait for us!"

Huang Tao and the others smiled warmly.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Beautiful fireworks blossomed vibrantly in the night sky, colorful and splendid!
