Gong Jie immediately brought the car to a halt. “Sit still,” he instructed Little Yichen. “Uncle will buy it for you.”

After a pause, he glanced at Gong Fan again. “Do you want some?”

Gong Fan looked disgusted. “No.”

“What would you like to drink, then?”

“Wolfberry tea.”

“…”

Gong Jie complained, “Are you a Buddhist studies elementary school student? So young but so focused on cultivating your health.”

“I don’t like anything too sweet.”

Hua Jin thought it was odd and mumbled, “That’s strange. Doesn’t Youyou have a sweet tooth?”

He recalled that in the past, Youyou was fond of drinking Cola. Apart from Cola, he was also very fond of other sweet things. However, Gong Fan was different. He would drink Cola, but declined any other sweet treats.

Gong Jie turned to the actor and asked him, “And what about you?”

“Are you buying me a drink?”

Gong Jie raised an eyebrow, looking rather displeased. “Otherwise? Would you go buy it and give us all a treat?”

“No … too many people.”

Gong Jie said nothing, but only instructed him to take care of the two children. The car door shut with a “bam”, leaving Hua Jin and Little Yichen staring at each other.

Gong Fan said, “Why does it sound so much like a husband instructing his wife to take care of the kids?”

The actor’s face flushed with anger upon hearing this. “Hey, don’t talk nonsense!”

Gong Fan said, “I’m just spouting nonsense, why get so worked up?”

The actor was dumbfounded.

Little Yichen, however, had managed to stifle his laughter the whole time. His shoulders rose and fell as he tried to hide his chuckling. Reflecting on Gong Fan’s words, he realized that it was indeed true! Uncle really did look the part of a career husband, and Hua Jin, the stay-at-home housewife minding the kids… Come to think of it, they fit into the picture perfectly!

The boy covered his mouth with his hand and giggled.

The actor spat, “What are you laughing at!?”

“Now that he’s mentioned it, you look the part.” Little Yichen said very solemnly, “Seriously, have you considered my uncle? He’s so handsome and rich. If you marry him, you can be Mrs. Gong and live a worry-free life!”

The actor said with contempt, “Are you trying to pimp me?”

“I’m pimping my uncle!”

Speak of the devil. Gong Jie returned with the milk tea. When he opened the car door, Little Yichen looked at him, stunned.

“Uncle… you… that was fast?!”

It was a food street in the middle of downtown.

Usually, there would be a long queue at the entrance of the milk tea shop at this time of the day.

He had only been gone a few minutes and now he was back with the drinks.

Gong Jie frowned. “Really? I said I was in a hurry, and then the crowd made way.”

“…”

Little Yichen asked suspiciously. “Did you… intimidate them?”

“No.”

Gong Fan lamented icily, “Even if he didn’t use threat, most people would be scared out of their wits by his gaze.”

Gong Jie handed Youyou the wolfberry tea, and Little Yichen the milk tea with pudding. Then the remaining cup went to Hua Jin, who was surprised to find that it was his favorite matcha.

He had not told Gong Jie that he liked matcha. Instead, he had said “whatever”. And Gong Jie bought matcha at random.

“What’s wrong? Don’t like this flavor?”

Taken aback, the actor immediately replied, “No, I’m actually very fond of this flavor. Did you select this randomly?”

Gong Jie looked startled, too, then frowned.

Gong Fan, who was watching them, interrupted, “Uncle’s favorite flavor is matcha too.”

Hua Jin was surprised. “You like matcha, too?”

“Uh huh.”

“Me too. Matcha suits my taste bud, sweet but not overly so.”
