Chapter 32 - Chapter 32 - 32 Substitute Shopping on a Rainy Day (2/2)

Until six in the morning, there weren’t many customers in the shop at all.

But Chen Yu didn’t have a moment to himself.

Those who came today were mostly running errands for the neighborhood.

Even the nearby internet cafe had sent a few representatives over.

Just then, Tuan Tuan came downstairs with a backpack, looking somewhat annoyed.

“Daddy, I’ve noticed you’ve become naughty. It’s been several days in a row that you haven’t woken me up! You let me sleep so late every day, like a lazy pig.”

Chen Yu helplessly replied, “Isn’t it just to let you get a bit more rest?”

Pouting, Tuan Tuan stomped into the kitchen.

However, when she saw how busy Chen Yu was, she immediately felt puzzled.

“Daddy, there are no customers in the shop. What are you preparing all this for?”

“These have all been reserved! People will come to pick them up in a few minutes.”

Tuan Tuan nodded her little head and, no longer sulking, quickly began to help Chen Yu with the packing.

“By the way, why didn’t Teacher Tong Ya come today?”

“She’s sick!” Chen Yu responded instinctively.

“What? Teacher is sick? I want to go see her.”

Chen Yu ruffled Tuan Tuan’s little head, “How about Daddy goes to see Teacher Tong Ya at noon, okay?”

Tuan Tuan immediately became excited, “Then you must bring flowers, red wine, and candles.”

Chen Yu had his head full of black lines, “What on earth do you think about every day, you little girl?”

“Obviously about a stepmother! Teacher Tong Ya is so perfect! And now that she is sick, it’s the perfect opportunity for Daddy to propose. Don’t you want to be with Teacher Tong Ya?”

Chen Yu’s body shook violently.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, it was that he didn’t dare to think about it!

The barrier in his heart—he simply couldn’t get over it.

“Don’t meddle in adults’ affairs. Right now, our main goal is to make money.”

Tuan Tuan involuntarily pouted, “Humph, Daddy is such a blockhead!”

At that moment, four youths with dark circles under their eyes rushed into the shop, holding umbrellas.

“Boss, is it ready?”

“Just in time!” Chen Yu quickly handed over the packed fried cakes and vegetable pies.

At 6:45, taking advantage of the break when there were no customers, Chen Yu took Tuan Tuan by the hand and walked her to school.

But unexpectedly, right at the school gate, the little girl turned around and ran back.

“Remember, you must go see Teacher Tong Ya!”

Tuan Tuan, having issued her reminder, ran back to school again.

Chen Yu let out a light sigh, feeling somewhat conflicted inside.

When he returned to the shop, there were a few people waiting at the door.

“Young Boss Chen is back!”

“I thought it was raining, and Young Boss Chen had closed up for the day.”

…

Chen Yu kept apologizing, “I just went to drop my child off.”

By nine in the morning, Chen Yu finally had some leisure time.

The entire morning was mostly about running errands, and the sales even turned out to be a bit more than usual.

Without taking a break, Chen Yu continued as usual, preparing the semi-finished products.

By eleven, Chen Yu specially made fifty fried cakes and thirty vegetable pies, then closed the shop door, hailed a taxi from the entrance, and headed straight to Tong Ya’s residential district.

The location Tong Ya had sent was clear, and before long, Chen Yu arrived at Lucky District, directly finding Building 13, Room 405.

The one who came to open the door was Tang Xiaowei; she wasn’t surprised to see Chen Yu.

However, her gaze was fixed on the fried cakes and vegetable pies in Chen Yu’s hands.

Tong Ya, hearing the noise, also hurried over.

Perhaps because of her illness, Tong Ya looked somewhat frail.

But the loose clothing she wore at home added a few touches of cuteness to her.
