Chapter 738: Chapter 555: We’re Off to the Resort! (Part 3)

Seeing the family of three slowly approaching, Gu Yejun quickly stepped forward and politely took the suitcase and cat cage from Huang Jun’s hand.

"Thank you!"

Huang Jun expressed his sincere gratitude.

Meanwhile, inside the car, Liu Ruihan couldn’t wait to call out to Qingqing and Weiwei: "Qingqing, Weiwei, hurry up and get in the car..."

"Hanhan..."

Qingqing and Weiwei smiled as they ran forward with their backpacks to greet them. As soon as they saw the Liu Shiwei couple, they sweetly called out, "Uncle Liu, Aunt Wen..."

"Hey!"

Wen Xueqian responded gently, then stretched out her arms and first hugged the lively and adorable Weiwei, carefully lifting her into the car. Then she turned around and also steadily picked up Qingqing, gently placing her on the seat next to her.

As soon as Qingqing’s little bottom touched the soft cushion, she couldn’t wait to turn her head and call out in a childish voice, "Daddy, hurry up and come..."

"Yeah, Daddy, you come up too..."

Weiwei, just about settled, craned her neck and anxiously urged.

Watching the two little ones afraid of being left behind, Huang Jun smiled as he followed after Gu Yejun had properly placed the suitcase and cat kennel, and sat inside the spacious car.

Today, Liu Shiwei’s ride was a seven-seater car with an extraordinarily spacious interior, making the outing more comfortable and pleasant for both families.

As soon as Huang Jun sat down, Gu Yejun also followed suit, sitting in the passenger seat. After exchanging a few brief inquiries, he steadily started the car, driving off into the distance.

"Qingqing, Weiwei, have you had breakfast?"

As Liu Ruihan spoke, Qingqing and Weiwei replied in unison, "We have, Daddy made egg dumplings and century egg lean meat porridge. So delicious..."

The chance to go out and play with good friends made the two little ones especially excited, their words brimming with endless joy and anticipation.

"Wow, egg dumplings... I love egg dumplings the most," Liu Ruihan exclaimed, her eyes lighting up instantly.

Seeing her greedy look, Huang Jun lovingly said, "Hanhan, if you want to eat egg dumplings, next time Godfather will personally make them for you, guaranteed to make you eat until you can’t stop!"

Liu Ruihan’s face immediately blossomed into a sweet smile, "Thank you, Godfather, you’re the best!"

Liu Shiwei observed this, feeling a bit envious in his heart.

"Oh, by the way, Hanhan..."

Huang Jun suddenly remembered, smiling as he said, "Godfather also specially made some taro paste chrysanthemum pastries. Do you want to taste them now?"

Liu Ruihan’s eyes started sparkling like stars, and she replied without hesitation, "Of course, I want to taste them!"

"Great!"

Huang Jun took out a box of taro paste chrysanthemum pastries from his bulging backpack.

"My daddy’s taro paste chrysanthemum pastries are fragrant and delicious..."

Qingqing and Weiwei chimed in their high-pitched praises.

In their hearts, Daddy was nothing short of a culinary god, everything he made was incredibly delicious!

Listening to his two beloved daughters’ praises, Huang Jun’s heart was filled with delight, a smile spreading across his face. He didn’t forget to open the box, revealing one after another of the alluringly purple taro paste chrysanthemum pastries inside.

Instantly.

A tempting aroma of taro paste chrysanthemum pastries filled the entire car. The scent was not at all overwhelming, rather it was like a hook, arousing everyone’s appetite.

"Hanhan, here you go..."

Huang Jun handed a taro paste chrysanthemum pastry to Liu Ruihan.

Qingqing and Weiwei couldn’t resist and clamored, "Daddy, we want some too..."

These two little gluttons, even though they had already eaten at home to the point of having round little tummies, as soon as they smelled the taro paste chrysanthemum pastries, they immediately clamored for more.

Watching their adorable expressions, although Huang Jun slightly shook his head inwardly, thinking they were indeed perpetually hungry little foodies, his face was filled with a doting smile. Without hesitation, he handed them two more pieces.

Then he turned to Liu Shiwei and his wife, saying, "Brother Liu, Sister-in-law, come, come, try some..."

"Sure!"

Wen Xueqian graciously accepted with a smile.

However, Liu Shiwei, who generally wasn’t fond of sweets, politely waved his hand, "I just had breakfast and my stomach is still full. You all enjoy..."

Huang Jun didn’t insist and instead turned to Gu Yejun, who was focused on driving, "Xiaogu, do you want to try a piece too?"

Gu Yejun didn’t expect to be included, and his heart warmed. But considering the importance of safe driving, he had to resist the temptation, sending an appreciative smile through the rearview mirror to Huang Jun: "Thank you for your kind offer, Chef Huang, but I’m driving now, so I must stay focused and can’t eat. However, please save me a couple of pieces, and I’ll be sure to savor them during our break!"

"No problem, I’ll save two pieces for you," Huang Jun agreed heartily.

"Thank you so much!"

Gu Yejun expressed his sincere gratitude.

Liu Ruihan, Qingqing, and Weiwei each held their taro paste chrysanthemum pastries, eating with great delight, their faces radiating satisfaction and joy. They occasionally shook their heads merrily, and their little feet playfully kicked in the air, showcasing their childlike innocence and liveliness.

Wen Xueqian, whose appetite had been lacking lately, found herself suddenly more inclined to eat as she smelled the taro scent from the pastry in her hand.

She supported the pastry under her hand and elegantly took a bite.

Instantly.

The perfect blend of pastry and taro paste blossomed in her mouth.

As she chewed, the crispy pastry and the smooth, sweet taro paste grew increasingly rich. Even after swallowing, the intoxicating aroma lingered between her lips and teeth.

She couldn’t help but exclaim, "It’s truly a worldly delicacy! These taro paste chrysanthemum pastries are so crispy and delicious, and the flavor is so rich and unique, absolutely amazing..."

"Since it’s so delicious, I’ll try some too..."

Enveloped by this enticing aroma and witnessing everyone eating with such delight, Liu Shiwei couldn’t resist any longer. So, he naturally extended his hand toward the box of pastries Huang Jun was holding.

Huang Jun teasingly said, "Brother Liu, didn’t you just say you were full from breakfast!"

Liu Shiwei laughed awkwardly but maintaining his poise, replied, "One piece, I can still manage to make room for."

With that, he took a bite.

He found that the taro paste chrysanthemum pastry was not overwhelmingly sweet but instead had a refreshing and refined taste, with just the right level of sweetness. It satisfied his taste buds without any sense of burden.

It was indeed quite good!

After finishing, Liu Shiwei licked the corner of his lips, still feeling a bit unsatisfied. He shot Huang Jun an approving glance, gave a thumbs up, and praised, "Brother Huang, your culinary skills are amazing! These taro paste chrysanthemum pastries taste even better than those made by so-called pastry masters out there."

Huang Jun couldn’t stop smiling, "Brother Liu, as long as you like them. Next time, I’ll make some different flavors for you all to try."

At this moment, Liu Ruihan also finished her taro paste chrysanthemum pastry and gazed at the box in Huang Jun’s hand with her big eyes, her little mouth slightly open, and said in a coquettish voice, "Godfather, I want more..."

Seeing this, Huang Jun laughed and handed her another piece from the box. Noticing that everyone had finished eating, he generously handed out another piece to each person.

In no time, the car was filled with the enticing aroma, leaving everyone immersed in it.

Even though Gu Yejun was focused on driving, the enticing scent still sneaked into his nose, making him feel itchy with anticipation.

He couldn’t help but glance through the rearview mirror, seeing everyone eating with such enjoyment, his anticipation to reach their destination quickly so he could also taste this legendary taro paste chrysanthemum pastry grew even stronger...
