Chapter 191 - Camping in the Suburbs (1/2)

When they arrived, they saw the large lawn covered in green grass. Not far away, there was a family who had come to camp. Xu Zhexian set up a barbecue grill and took out the sheep’s leg from the car trunk.

Xu Le opened the box and took out the oil, dry materials, brushes, and so on. As soon as the charcoal started burning, the sun slowly set like an orange balloon in the sky. The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the ground with a light golden color. The air was filled with fresh air. He took a deep breath and felt extremely carefree and light.

The environment was comfortable and pleasant. Xu Tian, who had been unhappy just now, left her worries in the back of her mind and started smiling. Soon, she started playing with the children who were camping.

Lu Yuxi squatted at the side and peeled fruits. She did not forget to remind her, “Run slowly, don’t fall. Stay away from the river…”

After Xu Le placed the sheep’s leg on the skewer, he roasted it above the charcoal.

He walked to Lu Yuxi’s side and squatted in front of her to pick up a peach to eat. The crisp peach juice was sweet and would not make people sick of it. It was refreshing and pleasant, and his taste buds were filled with the refreshing fragrance.

“They’re leaving again. Aren’t you going to ask them to stay?”

“People like them make it their lifelong dream and meaning to learn under a chef. They can’t be persuaded. Just like if you were to persuade me to change my profession and close the store now, I wouldn’t do that either.”

“What nonsense examples.” Lu Yuxi glared at him and said, “I still want to eat your food every day. Why would I persuade you to change your profession?”

“Okay.” Xu Le took a big bite of the peach and said in an unclear voice, “Then I’ll make it for you every day.”

Not far away, Xu Tian was playing with the dog with a frisbee. The small Maltese dog jumped up and down, and the gold of the setting sun was gradually dyed with the red of the setting sun. Shen Hui looked at the warm and beautiful scene and could not help but exclaim.

“If I had a choice, I’d still like to bring the children over.”

However, the reality was right in front of her. She could not help but frown and feel a little conflicted. After waiting for a long time, Xu Zhexian did not speak. This made her pick up the empty bottle beside her and throw it over unhappily.

“Hey! What are you thinking? We’re almost leaving and you’re not worried about the children?”

“What?”

Xu Zhexian was lowering his head to blow at the charcoal. He was sweating profusely from fiddling with it. When he looked up, he was in a daze.

“What is it? Speak up!”

Then he wiped his face with the back of his hand. Another black mark was left behind.

Shen Hui was caught off guard and laughed out loud. After being amused, it was difficult for her to put on a face again. She simply ignored him and said to Xu Tian, “Go roast your sheep’s leg. Tiantian, come to Mommy.”

Xu Tian hesitated for a moment, then threw the frisbee in one direction with all her might. The Maltese rushed over with a whoosh.

Then, she slowly walked towards her mother. It was not a long distance, but she took some time before reaching Shen Hui.

“Tiantian?”

“Wah!”

Xu Tian could no longer hold back the sadness in her heart. She pouted and tears rolled down her face. She cried, “Mommy doesn’t even keep me company. You just came back and have to leave again… Boohoo, Mommy doesn’t want me anymore. Brother doesn’t want me either…”

For no reason, Xu Le was being blamed. He turned around and widened his eyes. “When did I say that?”

Xu Tian continued to cry to vent her emotions. She had always been obedient and sensible. This was the first time she had thrown a tantrum.

Shen Hui’s heart ached. She hugged her daughter and coaxed her gently. Xu Zhexian hurriedly found a tissue to wipe Xu Tian’s face. Xu Tian cried even harder, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances in her heart when they were not around.
