Chapter 218 - New Idea (1/2)

After eating for another hour, Wang Ming and Ming Ming finally went home. The meeting went as good as it could have gone. The most important part is that her parents agreed to their relationship. What made him happy is that her parents seem like genuine and nice people.

Wang Ming felt like he bonded well with Uncle Hung. He kept telling him about all his stories when he was young. Ming Ming also got close to Aunt Li and Qiao Mei. He didn't know how he had offended Qiao Mei, but the little girl kept looking at him with hostility. That was until he told her he would take back the car if she still acted like that to her brother-in-law. After that, she was all smiles and giggles.

Since Fu Ya is busy and Aunt Fu is currently in the hospital, Wang Ming was happy to provide Ming Ming another place to have some family time.

He also invited them all to come and watch the pinnacle chef's competition, which they readily agreed to. Though Wu Li felt embarassed as she felt like her family wasn't worthy to come to such a prestigious competition. But with a bit of coaxing from both Wang Ming and Ming Ming, she agreed.

He also transferred Qiao Meng 20 thousand yuan for her to buy clothes and accessories for her and her family. He didn't care that they wear normal clothes, but he's afraid that other people would look down on them, which would hurt Aunt Li.

He knew that Aunt Li would definitely disagree, so he said nothing to her.

On the way home, Wang Ming stocked up on spices again. He still needs to make something that could win the competition.

Ming Ming looked so happy the entire ride home. When he asked her about it, her answer almost made him tear up. ”I just love you Daddy! Daddy makes me happy.”

When they arrived home, Wang Ming dropped her off at her house, Fu Ya had arrived home just minutes before they came back. She looked exhausted but happy as well.

Seeing her so happy Wang Mig asked.”I assume the meeting went well? Please, next time if you leave Ming Ming home alone tell me so I can take care of her.” But he also scolded her, as even though he understood her reasoning it's still irresponsible leaving Ming Ming like that.

Fu Ya smiled apologetically and gave both him and Ming Ming a kiss. ”Sorry Ming Ming, sorry Hubby. I was just in such a hurry I forgot everything. I promise it won't happen again. How is your prep going?”

Thinking about the prep, Wang Ming could only sigh. Even though he knew what he wanted to do, he still had no clear path. Everything is so much easier, theoretically. ”I've not progressed at all. But Ming Ming gave me some good ideas earlier, with that I think I can finally get a breakthrough.”

”That's why Ming Ming is the best!” Giving Ming Ming another hug, Wang Ming left Fu Ya's house. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would end up spending the night. Of course he wouldn't be able to touch her, only sleep next to her, which would make things worse.

Sitting down in his kitchen, Wang Ming thought about the sauces he had tried to make the last three days. And analyzed what he had done wrong, what he could improve, or maybe he just needs to make something else.

He thought back to what Ming Ming had told him. He needs to make something that's represents him, something that he would love to eat every day. Wang Ming then thought about Qiao Meng and his girls. He really wanted to win this competition for them all.
