Now that Huang Tao has Xu Hao and Ding Suqin as his capable assistants, he occasionally enjoys the leisure of being a boss.
Look at this.
Once the evening rush hour passed, he handed over some remaining tasks to the two assistants.
With a face full of affection, he opened his arms towards Xuanxuan, calling out: "Xuanxuan!"
"Daddy!"
Upon seeing this, Xuanxuan's beautiful big eyes lit up like light bulbs.
She immediately jumped off the chair and, like a little bird returning to its nest, flew into Huang Tao's arms!
He held Xuanxuan in his arms and, seeing the little one snuggling her sticky arms around his neck, he felt a twinge of guilt.
He gently asked, "Xuanxuan! Are you angry with Daddy?"
Xuanxuan: (?˙▽˙?)
Her beautiful big eyes sparkled with confusion as she asked in her childish voice, "Daddy, why should I be angry with you?"
"Because these days, Daddy's spent very little time with you and couldn't even play with you."
He really wished he could be with Xuanxuan every moment, living a happy, carefree life with her, traveling the world, and watching her grow up.
But such wonderful dreams require a strong financial foundation to support.
He needs to earn a lot of money.
But sometimes, when the store gets busy, he has no choice but to temporarily not attend to Xuanxuan, which is very helpless.
Xuanxuan blinked her beautiful big eyes, thought for a moment, then shook her head with a smile: "But you're with me now, right? It's okay, I'm not angry."
Such understanding behavior, it really tugs at the heart!
He reached out to gently rub this considerate little one's head: "But Daddy feels sad not being with you!"
"Daddy, don't be sad, I know you love me, and I love you too..." She gave him a peck on the cheek, comforting him in return.
Huang Tao felt warmth in his chest and gave the little one a kiss, rubbing noses with her little face: "Daddy loves you too..."
Hmm~
Xuanxuan knows!
Xuanxuan always knows!
"So Xuanxuan, are you bored staying here by yourself?" Huang Tao looked at her lovingly.
She placed her chin on his shoulder, lightly shook her head: "As long as Daddy's here, Xuanxuan doesn't feel bored, plus Mimi is with me too!"
She suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen Mimi for a while, and instinctively looked down, but couldn't find Mimi's shadow.
"Hmm? Where's Mimi?"
"Xuanxuan, look under the table at the horizontal bar."
Xuanxuan looked in the direction her daddy pointed and saw Mimi standing upright, resting its head on the table's crossbar, seemingly sleeping soundly!
Adorable!
Xuanxuan was delighted by its sleeping posture, covering her mouth and giggling, forming two small dimples at the corners of her mouth.
She laughed and called to Mimi: "Lazy little thing, it's time to get up..."
Mimi squinted open its eyes, gave its little owner a look, then closed its eyes and went back to a deep sleep, without even changing its posture.
Such an attitude seemed to say: Human, you surely didn't expect this, waking a sleeping person is easy, but waking a feigning sleep feline is hard~
Humph~
With her daddy's company, Xuanxuan had no time for this lazy little cat now!
She continued to nestle in her daddy's embrace, watching the myriad lights outside the window, counting how many lamps there were.
Learning through play~
At this moment, a cold system notification sounds in Huang Tao's mind.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations host for completing the task: Sold 3,000 bowls of preserved egg and lean meat congee in 5 days.]
[Reward random culinary skill: Crab Fried Rice Cakes.]
[The host can now make the most delicious Crab Fried Rice Cakes.]
The next second.
A burst of information about Crab Fried Rice Cakes surged into his mind.
He quickly absorbed it and clearly understood how to make it.
He originally thought the rainy weather today would delay the task until the last minute, but unexpectedly it was completed within his plan.
Awesome!
These lovely and adorable customers are so supportive, letting him happily acquire a new dish.
To thank them, he plans to launch Crab Fried Rice Cakes tomorrow noon to reward them.
Yes, it's happily decided.
"Daddy, why aren't you counting anymore?" Xuanxuan didn't hear her daddy's voice and turned her head to look at him questioningly.
"Xuanxuan, I'm sorry! Daddy was just thinking about a new dish and got distracted." He looked apologetic.
New dish?
The little one's attention immediately shifted to the new dish, grabbing her daddy's arm, blinking her curious big eyes: "Daddy, so what new dish did you think of?"
"Crab Fried Rice Cakes!"
"Yay, yay, Xuanxuan likes to eat crab." She clapped her hands, happy like a cheerful little yellow-breasted oriole flitting through the woods.
The remaining customers dining in the store, overhearing this from the father and daughter, all showed expressions of "this sounds good."
"Boss Huang, when will this Crab Fried Rice Cakes be on the schedule?"
Seeing the anticipation in those eyes, Huang Tao didn't make it mysterious, directly saying: "Tomorrow noon."
"Okay, I'll definitely come to buy some tomorrow noon."
"Boss Huang, you better prepare a good amount! We office workers can't beat a bunch of grandpas, grandmas, and those students without classes!"
"Indeed, these days, who can beat them!"
Huang Tao smiled: "Okay, I'll try to prepare more, and you all try to come earlier if you can."
...
"Boss, Haozi and I have cleaned everything up, come check if there's anything amiss that needs attention, and we'll tidy up again."
Ding Suqin said with a smile.
"Xuanxuan, you stay here, Daddy will be right back."
Hearing this, Huang Tao said to Xuanxuan, then went into the kitchen to roughly check the pots and pans.
Hmm.
They're all cleaned very thoroughly.
Not a trace of oil residue could be found.
Looking at the stove, the hood, and the stainless steel counter, as well as the tiles on the wall, with a faint shimmer of water light, it's clear they had been wiped down.
Even the floor had been mopped, looking as shiny as a mirror.
To be honest, with the system's permanent 90% cleanliness boost, the tables, chairs, counters, stoves, and kitchenware in the store can be cleaned just by lightly wiping with a cloth.
Even the floor, a gentle mop could make it mirror-like.
So previously, Huang Tao didn't meticulously do a thorough cleaning every night.
But I have to say, Xu Hao and Ding Suqin's initiative and thorough cleaning added a few more points to Huang Tao's fondness for them.
He nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, the cleaning is very thorough, no problems at all, it must have been exhausting for you both on your first day at work. Go home and rest early!"
Seeing that their boss was genuinely not just being polite, Ding Suqin and Xu Hao were happy that their work had pleased him.
Ding Suqin breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Boss, I'll tidy up and head home now."
"Wait, take these apples and two nourishing fish soups home for your family or friends to try."
"Well... thank you, Boss."
Ding Suqin instantly felt gratitude welling up from the bottom of her heart, determined to work even harder tomorrow to repay the boss's kindness of recognizing talent.
Xu Hao thought this boss was really nice, worth getting along with!
