"Daddy..."

Xuanxuan threw herself into Huang Tao's arms, tilted her head, blinked her eyes, and said with a smile, "Daddy, today Teacher Xu taught us to sing and dance. Teacher Xu said my dance moves are the most precise!"

Her expression was full of "please praise me."

"Xuanxuan danced really well, quite talented," Teacher Xu chimed in with appreciation.

"Really!"

Huang Tao smiled, looked at his precious daughter, and said, "My Xuanxuan is the best. What reward do you want? Go ahead, Daddy will take you to buy it."

Xuanxuan's beautiful big eyes lit up, "I want a toy."

Huang Tao agreed readily, "No problem! Choose any toy you want later."

Wow~

Any toy she wants~

The other children heard this and were very envious of Xuanxuan.

Not just for her looks, but simply envious that she has such a good father, who not only cooks delicious meals but is also generous, letting her choose any toy.

Neither father nor daughter noticed the children's envy as he helped Xuanxuan take off her little backpack and small water bottle.

"Teacher Ye, Teacher Xu..."

Huang Tao said to Teacher Ye, "We're leaving now. I have a new dish, Dongpo Pork today. If you have time, come over and try it."

Both teachers' eyes lit up at the words and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, okay, we'll come over after work."

Xuanxuan waved her hand obediently, "Teacher Ye, Teacher Xu, see you later."

The two teachers responded with a smile, "Okay, see you at the store later."

As he held Xuanxuan in one arm and carried the little backpack and water bottle in the other, several children immediately surrounded them.

"Xuanxuan's daddy, is your store open tonight?"

"Yes, why?"

Xuanxuan smiled and spoke for her classmates, "Daddy, they all want to eat the delicious food you make~"

The parents of these children stood by with helpless smiles and said, "Boss Huang, yesterday your store wasn't open, and you packed up early during the food festival, so my kid didn't get to eat your food and has been longing for it since, very much craving it!"

"Boss Huang, does your store open at five in the evening?"

"Around five-thirty, I think," Huang Tao thought for a moment and kindly reminded, "If you're coming, it's best to come early. If you're late, it's hard to buy."

"Alright, then we'll go home to put away the backpacks and come over. See you later, Boss Huang."

"See you later, Xuanxuan's daddy!"

"See you later, Xuanxuan!"

The other kids chimed in to say goodbye to Xuanxuan and Huang Tao.

"See you later, kids."

Huang Tao waved goodbye and left Golden Sun Kindergarten with Xuanxuan in his arms.

On the way to West City Old Street, Huang Tao asked, "Xuanxuan, do you like dancing?"

Standing at the front of the electric scooter, Xuanxuan nodded vigorously like a pecking chick, "Yes, I like it!"

Huang Tao smiled.

He was thinking about whether to send Xuanxuan for dance lessons.

If she learns at a professional dance training class with professional dance teachers guiding her, she will definitely learn better.

But then again, learning to dance seems quite tiring.

However, dance is an activity that's beneficial to both body and mind, can exercise the body, enhance coordination of various body parts, and is good for physical and mental health. It's also a great way to improve one's temperament.

At her current age, it's the perfect time to start learning.

Huang Tao felt quite conflicted!

"Daddy, look, look, there's a store with lots of toys here~"

Xuanxuan was captivated by a newly opened toy store by the road, and her little hand excitedly pointed towards it.

Upon hearing this, Huang Tao slowed down the scooter.

Following the direction of her pointing finger...

There was a long red welcome carpet laid out in front of the store's entrance, with congratulatory flower baskets on both sides.

In the sunset's glow, the large floor-to-ceiling windows reflected the scene, and the shelves inside were filled with all sorts of toys, really eye-catching.

The words "Children's Goods Store" in red were prominently displayed on the glass door.

He remembered passing by this store a few days ago, the store sign was covered with a tarp, and it was still under renovation.

Earlier, in his rush to pick up Xuanxuan, he hadn't noticed that it was already completed and officially open for business.

And it's a toy store.

The scale looks quite large!

Huang Tao stopped the electric scooter and checked the time, seeing it was still early.

He decided to fulfill his promise to Xuanxuan.

"Let's go, let's go in and take a look."

He parked the electric scooter and led Xuanxuan inside.

"Welcome..."

A pretty young lady in a uniform at the store entrance, seeing customers arrive, welcomed their visit with a sweet smile and gentle voice, and kindly offered Xuanxuan a small opening gift.

"Thank you, sister."

Xuanxuan received the red heart-shaped balloon, her eyes crinkled with happiness.

The uniformed young lady smiled and said, "You're welcome, feel free to look around."

Huang Tao glanced around the store.

The store was quite spacious and warmly decorated, with remote control cars, Ultraman figures, plush toys, Barbie dolls, cards, educational toys, bicycles, rollerblades, children's clothing, and shoes all available.

Perhaps because of the time of day, there weren't many customers in the store, just a few.

Xuanxuan was almost overwhelmed by the dazzling array of toys.

Her big eyes were filled with excitement.

Now that Huang Tao isn't short on money, he smiled slightly: "Xuanxuan, go pick what you like, feel free to choose anything you want."

"Mhm mhm~"

Xuanxuan nodded eagerly, running over with her little legs to the Barbie dolls and plush toys section to start picking.

Huang Tao smiled.

Sure enough, a girl's favorite toys are still Barbie dolls and plush toys!

Even his precious daughter couldn't escape the trend!

He carried the shopping basket over and placed it beside her, so she could put the toys she chose inside.

Then he wandered over to the children's clothing section.

The weather is gradually getting colder, and the winter clothes and shoes bought earlier seem to be a bit small.

Kids do grow fast, after all. Over six months, she's grown several centimeters taller, and her feet have gotten considerably bigger.

A pair of shoes can only last about half a year before the size needs changing.

Even if clothes are bought a size larger, they can at most be worn for a year and a half.

Originally, Huang Tao was thinking of taking her to the mall during the weekend for shopping, but since there were children's clothes and shoes here, he thought he might as well take care of it now.

He picked out winter clothes: coats, pants, waistcoats, hats, shoes, all of them.

He ended up choosing several sets.

"Xuanxuan, have you finished picking?"

She pointed to a pink bicycle and asked, "Daddy, can I also choose this bicycle?"

Huang Tao looked at the bicycle, which had a Peppa Pig picture on it.

He seriously doubted his daughter, who couldn't ride a bike, was more interested in the Peppa Pig on the bike than the bike itself.

But seeing the longing in her eyes, he nodded in agreement.

Besides, Xuanxuan was indeed at the age where she needed proper exercise.

And the bicycle wasn't a bad option.

He even thoughtfully picked out a set of sports protective gear for his beloved daughter, which also had a Peppa Pig picture on it.

With that,

The little one was ecstatic.

She dragged the shopping cart full of Peppa Pig plush toys and Barbie dolls, following her dad to the checkout counter.

"The total is 3,380 yuan, after a 10% discount."

The cashier, a sweet young lady, asked, "Would you like to pay by card or mobile payment?"

The cashier thought Huang Tao was quite handsome, but alas, he was someone else's dad~

"Mobile payment please..."

Huang Tao took out his phone and scanned to pay.

"Are you Boss Huang from Delicious Restaurant?"

Just then, a voice full of surprise came from his side.

"Huh?"

Huang Tao couldn't help but turn his head, only to see a lady in a white woolen sweater smiling at him.

He nodded: "Yes, and you are?"

She warmly extended her hand: "Hello, hello, I am Lin Jiaqi, the owner of this children's store. I didn't expect that you, Boss Huang, would visit our store today. It's a pleasure to meet you."

She was a loyal fan of Delicious Restaurant. Having just returned from outside, she recognized him as Boss Huang after taking a closer look.

The staff, hearing their boss, showed a look of surprise.

No wonder they found Huang Tao familiar earlier. Turns out, he was the Boss Huang from Delicious Restaurant!

They had heard news and reports about the food festival, and had also tasted Huang Tao's food directly or indirectly.

But seeing him unexpectedly in person was really a surprise.

Huang Tao politely shook hands: "Nice to meet you. Your store is really great, everything is so complete, I could buy everything I needed at once."

"I'm glad you like it..."

She turned to ask the cashier: "Xu, did you give Boss Huang a discount?"

The cashier quickly nodded, "Boss, I did, a 10% discount."

"10% isn't enough."

Lin Jiaqi immediately said, "Give Boss Huang a 40% discount!"

The profits on toys and children's clothes are pretty good, but considering the rent, renovation, and other operating costs,

A 40% discount basically means not making much money.

"Alright, boss!" The cashier quickly recalculated the bill.

Huang Tao hadn't intended to take advantage, remembering how everyone struggles in business.

He quickly said, "Really, you don't have to be so kind. You need to earn money too."

These words made Lin Jiaqi feel that Huang Tao was a nice person, and she smiled: "This is your first visit, so you should get a larger discount, don't worry, there's still profit at this price."

Since she put it that way, refusing again would seem pretentious.

Huang Tao had to thank her: "Well... thank you!"

Xuanxuan also politely thanked her, "Thank you, auntie..."

"So sweet!" Lin Jiaqi couldn't resist reaching out and rubbing the little girl's exquisitely carved head.

Huang Tao made the payment.

Before leaving, Lin Jiaqi also took out a VIP card, smiling: "Boss Huang, this is our store's VIP card, with it, you can get a 20% discount next time, plus points!"

Huang Tao thanked her and accepted the card.

Lin Jiaqi personally saw Huang Tao off to the door.

Seeing that his electric scooter wasn't convenient for carrying a bicycle, she took the initiative to offer to drive them and their purchases back to his store.

Huang Tao agreed and expressed his gratitude again.

He also thought to himself: Not having a car is indeed inconvenient, the car purchase really should be planned soon.
