Su Jiu was very curious about what the ice-cream fondue tasted like. When the waiter finally brought it to the table, she felt that she had learned something new.
The waiter first placed a set of cutlery in front of each of them, along with a slender spoon and a small hotpot. The hotpot soup base was actually made from chocolate sauce!
The waitress soon brought over another plate. It was filled with three different kinds of ice cream. The plate smelled of chocolate, cream, and strawberries. There was also a fruit platter and freshly squeezed juice along with it.
An Yuan then asked the little girl in her arms, “Little Jiu, what flavor of ice cream do you want to eat?”
Su Jiu said without thinking, “Strawberries!”
“Okay, I’ll make that for you,” An Yuan said as she picked up her fork. She speared a small strawberry ice cream ball, dipped it in the steaming hot chocolate sauce, and handed it to the little girl.
Su Jiu took the ice cream. She felt that after being dipped in the chocolate sauce, the ice cream was like hawthorn candy. She could not wait to take a bite. The ice cream was hot on the outside but cold on the inside. It had the mellow fragrance of chocolate and the sweetness of ice cream. It was delicious!
She could not help but take two more bites. Eating desserts really lifted her mood.
Seeing that the little girl liked it, An Yuan asked, “Is it delicious?”
“It is delicious!” Su Jiu vigorously nodded. She picked up another fork and dipped an ice-cream ball in the chocolate for An Yuan. “Big Sister, eat!”
An Yuan took it with a smile. “Thank you, Little Jiu.”
Su Shengjing immediately said, “Baby, aren’t you going to give Daddy some ice cream? Daddy wants to eat too.”
As if that was the real reason he was asking that. He was clearly jealous again.
Su Jiu knew that Su Shengjing did not like sweet food. Usually, he would not even eat a piece of candy, so why would he want to eat ice cream and chocolate?
To calm her father down, Su Jiu quickly picked up another ice-cream ball and dipped it in the pot. She then passed it to Su Shengjing. “Here, Daddy, this is for you!”
Su Shengjing was very satisfied. He reached out to take the ice cream and tasted it. Perhaps, since he got it from his daughter, he found that he enjoyed it.
It feels a little… delicious?
However, An Yuan and Su Jiu continued to feed each other. It made him feel a little useless.
More than an hour had passed when the trio finished the dessert. Su Jiu patted her bulging stomach and felt a little troubled.
Oh no, after eating so many desserts today, I’m going to gain weight!
As if she had read her thoughts, An Yuan chuckled. “It’s just this once. You won’t gain weight. Especially, a child like you has a good metabolism. It’s okay to eat more.”
However, Su Shengjing clearly stated, “You can’t eat so many sweets in the future. When your teeth hurt, don’t come crying to me about it, understand?”
Su Jiu pursed her lips. Thinking that the little girl was unhappy, An Yuan quickly comforted her. “Little Jiu, your father is right. Children shouldn’t eat so much sugar. It’s bad for their teeth and body.”
Su Shengjing added, “That’s right. Daddy doesn’t let you eat too much candy because he’s worried about your teeth.”
It was very easy for children of this age to get tooth decay. Su Shengjing was always worried for Su Jiu. When he had his wisdom teeth removed in the past, it had felt really painful. This would be the same with tooth decay.
“I got it.” Su Jiu obediently nodded. She thought about the chocolate fondue she just had and immediately asked, “Daddy, can we pack a portion and bring it back for Big Brother and Auntie Song?”
Su Shengjing was speechless.
Can you stop thinking about your Big Brother!
When An Yuan heard the little girl mention “Big Brother and Auntie Song,” she got surprised.
Auntie Song… who’s that?
Is she Su Shengjing’s girlfriend?
