A Joyful Boy: From Meeting the Drunk Song Qian

Huang Zhitao reached for it instinctively.

As a result, he grabbed nothing.

Looking up, I saw that Su Chen had taken the two plates away.

"What's wrong?" Huang Zhitao asked, her face full of confusion.

"If I remember correctly, didn't you say before that you wanted to come back with your parents to eat Daoxiangcun's grilled chicken skewers again?"

He hasn't forgotten my wish!

Huang Zhitao nodded happily: "I was so afraid you'd forgotten."

"So that's why you were feeling down just now?" Su Chen looked at her and smiled.

"No."

Seeing Huang Zhitao shake her head, Su Chen smiled slightly.

"Really not?"

"I already said I really didn't!" Huang Zhitao felt embarrassed by Su Chen's gaze and just wanted to end the topic quickly.

Looking at the skewers in Su Chen's hand.

"Take it down quickly, or it won't taste good when it gets cold."

"Sigh, I was thinking that if it were true, I could help you fulfill a wish, but since it isn't..."

"Yes, yes, that's what I said."

Huang Zhitao was overjoyed to hear that she could help fulfill her wish.

The next second, Su Chen put a grilled chicken skewer to her mouth.

"You can now think of me as your father, and your wish will be fulfilled."

Huang Zhitao had just opened her mouth when she heard Su Chen's words and froze on the spot.

A pair of eyes were looking at him.

His eyes were full of doubts.

Su Chen realized that Huang Zhitao didn't seem to want to do that, so he changed his mind and said, "Actually, if you really want me to think of you as your mother, that's fine, but you'd better not say it out loud. Just imagine me as her."

Su Chen spoke very seriously.

But the more he acted like this, the more Huang Zhitao wanted to laugh.

"Pfft~ Hahaha." Huang Zhitao couldn't help but laugh out loud, realizing that her laughter was a bit inappropriate.

He quickly covered his mouth.

After laughing, she looked at Su Chen.

"I'm sorry, I was feeling pretty bad at first, but when you said you looked like my mom, I couldn't help but picture you in women's clothing in my mind, and... and... hahaha~"

At the end, Huang Zhitao couldn't help but laugh again.

Behind that laughter lies the tragic story of Su Chen's day.

Seeing Su Chen in distress.

Huang Zhitao laughed for a while before stopping and apologizing to Su Chen.

Su Chen waved his hand dismissively.

Anyway, it's already a dark history, so there's nothing he can do if it's brought up again.

It's unlikely to happen again.

The two of them made a quick, mid-air motion with their chicken skewers.

took a bite.

His expression changed slightly.

Su Chen: "Are you sure this chicken skewer tastes like the one I had when I was a kid?"

Huang Zhitao: "The location and storefront haven't changed at all, so logically it should, but it's just the same taste..."

The two looked at the chicken skewers.

"It's a bit complicated to explain in a few words."

That's probably how the world is; you might think that everything will stay the same as it always has.

But he always changes things in unexpected ways.

Take chicken skewers, for example.

Huang Zhitao's impression of it has always been from her childhood.

But I never imagined that more than a decade would pass.

This place has been owned by several generations, so the taste is naturally not the same as it used to be.

Memories tend to retain only the best parts.

Huang Zhitao watched Su Chen the whole time.

"Actually, my wish was for my family to come here with me to eat grilled chicken skewers, and it seems that my wish has been fulfilled."

.........

Yang Tao went home.

With a flick of her feet, her high heels fell to the ground with a thud.

She was too lazy to even change her clothes.

I just want to sleep as soon as I lie down on the sofa.

"Who is it?"

Yang Tao came over to open the door, looking annoyed.

As soon as the door opened.

Then I saw Xue Sumei standing outside the door with a serious expression.

"Mom, why are you here so late?"

Xue Sumei walked straight in, sat on the sofa, and turned to look at her.

"The Lunar New Year is almost here, and the eve of the Lunar New Year is just a few days away. What are your plans for spending it?"

"We?" Yang Tao rolled her eyes and thought for a moment: "We just plan to live our own lives."

"What??? Everyone goes their own way???"

Yang Tao seemed to have anticipated that Xue Sumei would be angry, so she quickly went over to appease her.

"Mom, as you know, I'm the hotel's lobby manager. I get extremely busy around the time of the Lunar New Year's Eve and the Lunar New Year."

When Yang Tao saw that Xue Sumei didn't believe her, she tugged at her clothes.

“Look, I just got back too, I haven’t even had time to change my clothes yet. He’s about the same as me, he’s very busy at night.”

Xue Sumei knew, of course, that Yang Tao was very busy.

But you can't forget your responsibilities just because you're busy. What could be more important than your life's most important event?

When is it not okay to make money?

However, she is also very democratic and does not act arbitrarily.

Since I'm busy tonight.

There shouldn't be any problems at noon, right?

Xue Sumei looked at her and said, "You two are very busy at night, but you must have time to have lunch at noon."

"Uh..." Yang Tao was a little stunned.

How could I have forgotten this time?

It's not her fault.

Who would have thought that on the eve of the Lunar New Year, instead of having a reunion dinner, we would have a reunion lunch?

"Mom, it's no use telling me this. What if he's busy?" Yang Tao quickly adopted a roundabout strategy and came up with a clever idea: "You go back and rest first. I'll call him tomorrow and tell you if there's any news."

This trick usually works well.

But not now.

"Call him now, I want to hear him say it with my own ears."

"Mom~"

Yang Tao tried to act cute, but Xue Sumei glared at her and shut her up.

Left with no other option, I had to take out my phone.

I dialed Su Chen's number.
