Chapter 178: Chapter 178 Gluttonous Cat (2)

"Mom!"

Seeing Mi Wan, Xuanxuan excitedly shouted and ran over to her with light and quick steps as the teacher opened the door, her face beaming with joy.

"Mom, the teacher said that Xuanxuan and the other kids can have a long holiday. From now on, Xuanxuan finally doesn’t have to wake up early for kindergarten." Xuanxuan looked up at Mi Wan, smiling and showing a few cute little white teeth.

It’s really cold now, and getting up in the morning has been quite a painful thing for Xuanxuan. So, thinking that she doesn’t have to get up early tomorrow and can laze in bed until she wants to get up, like on Saturdays and Sundays, makes her very happy.

"Well, during the holiday, Xuanxuan not only doesn’t have to get up early, but we can also go somewhere far away for fun." Mi Wan picked Xuanxuan up, looking at her pure and genuine smile, and seemed to be infected by it, as she also smiled warmly.

"Where is far away? Is mom taking Xuanxuan out for a trip?" Xuanxuan tilted her head and asked.

"Yes! Mom plans to take grandpa, grandma, and Xuanxuan on a trip. As for where to go, let’s go home and ask grandpa and grandma for their opinions and see where they want to go, then decide."

"Great!" Xuanxuan cheered excitedly, her gaze falling on Ji Dongquan, who was standing by the car.

"Mom, did the long-legged uncle send you here?" Xuanxuan pointed at Ji Dongquan with her little finger.

"It’s Mr. Ji." Mi Wan corrected Xuanxuan’s way of addressing Ji Dongquan, "Don’t call him long-legged uncle anymore, call him Mr. Ji."

"Oh." Xuanxuan responded obediently.

Seeing Mi Wan carrying Xuanxuan back, Ji Dongquan walked around the car to the passenger seat door, opening it for Mi Wan to sit in with Xuanxuan.

"Hello, Mr. Ji." Xuanxuan greeted Ji Dongquan sweetly.

"Good girl, Xuanxuan." Ji Dongquan held the car door with one hand and reached out with the other to gently pat Xuanxuan’s little head, his gestures full of affection.

After Mi Wan and Xuanxuan got into the car, Ji Dongquan gently closed the door, walked around the car again, opened the driver’s door, and got in.

"Mr. Ji, are you taking Xuanxuan to eat chicken wings?" Although she hadn’t seen Ji Dongquan for some time, Xuanxuan always remembered the promise he made.

"Xuanxuan wants to eat chicken wings?" A gentle smile spread across Ji Dongquan’s firm face, softened by his kind expression.

"Yes! Xuanxuan hasn’t had KFC’s chicken wings for a long time and really wants to eat them." Thinking of the delicious fried chicken wings, Xuanxuan seemed to already smell the aroma, licking her lips greedily, her innocent eyes glimmering with desire. Her adorable and naive look made Ji Dongquan’s smile even brighter.

"Wanwan, did you always look like a little glutton when you were a kid, just thinking about food?" Ji Dongquan shifted his gaze from Xuanxuan’s little face and raised an eyebrow at Mi Wan.

"My childhood is too far away, I’ve forgotten." Mi Wan didn’t seriously try to recall her childhood memories. After speaking, she slowly remembered that she was always particularly quiet as a child and seemed rarely as innocent as Xuanxuan. In this regard, Xuanxuan was more like Mi Jing. Mi Jing had always been lively and a food lover since childhood. Having Mi Jing’s company added some color to her otherwise lonely childhood.

Mi Wan was lost in her memories, her expression slightly dazed, while Xuanxuan, focused on the fried chicken wings, didn’t notice Mi Wan daydreaming, eagerly looking at Ji Dongquan and pleading, "Mr. Ji, let’s go to KFC? You promised Xuanxuan to buy chicken wings, you can’t break your promise!"

"Okay, we’ll go to KFC now." Ji Dongquan’s fondness for Xuanxuan included love for affection. Although she was more lively than Mi Wan, she looked quite like her. So, looking at her adorable little face, Ji Dongquan’s heart almost melted, making it impossible for him to refuse her request.

"We can’t go." Mi Wan snapped out of her thoughts at Ji Dongquan’s voice and solemnly said to both the big and the small ones, "KFC’s food is all junk food. You’ve already had it twice this month, you can’t eat it again."

"It doesn’t hurt to eat it occasionally. Foreigners eat it often and they’re fine." Ji Dongquan glanced at the rearview mirror while driving onto the road, pleading for Xuanxuan.

"No, it’s not just a health issue, it’s also a matter of principle." Mi Wan and Xuanxuan had a deal that they could only eat KFC or McDonald’s twice a month, which had always been strictly followed. If today’s rule was broken, the agreement might no longer be effective.

"Xuanxuan is just a child. Isn’t it too harsh to talk about principles with a child? Besides, Xuanxuan and I have a prior agreement. You wouldn’t want me to be a person who breaks promises, would you?" Ji Dongquan’s tone was gentle, but his words were sharp.

Given their current relationship, Ji Dongquan naturally wanted to have a good relationship with Xuanxuan to ensure future harmony. So, Mi Wan naturally had to build a bridge for their communication, to bring the big and small closer and enhance their affection, and not become a barrier to their peaceful coexistence.

"Just this once, it won’t happen again." After considering for a few seconds, Mi Wan reluctantly compromised, and Ji Dongquan drove straight to the nearest KFC.

After parking the car, the three got out one after another. Ji Dongquan walked up to Mi Wan and took Xuanxuan from her, easily holding her with one arm, while his other hand held Mi Wan’s hand. The three of them looked like a family of three, stepping into the KFC together.

"Mom, you go find a seat first, Xuanxuan wants to sit by the window." At this time, there weren’t many people in KFC. Although there were only three people in the queue, there was still some waiting. And whenever Mi Wan, Mi Jing, and Xuanxuan came here, Mi Wan would find a seat while Mi Jing would order with Xuanxuan. So, when Ji Dongquan walked to the end of the line carrying her, Xuanxuan immediately shouted for Mi Wan to find a seat, so she could order more food and have a private conversation with Ji Dongquan.

"Mr. Ji, are you dating my mom now?" As soon as Mi Wan walked away, Xuanxuan seized the opportunity to ask Ji Dongquan.

Hearing this, Ji Dongquan immediately lowered his eyes to look at Xuanxuan’s little face and seriously asked, "Does Xuanxuan know what dating means?"

"Yes! Auntie said that dating means being with someone you like. Auntie also said that mom is happy with Mr. Ji because Mr. Ji is the person mom likes now, and Mr. Ji likes mom too, so you both are happy together." Xuanxuan said earnestly and convincingly.

So, Mi Jing had secretly helped out. Ji Dongquan felt less surprised and more understanding. He asked, "Then does Xuanxuan like uncle? Do you want mom and uncle to be together?"
