Gourmet: Twins' Father and Chef of the Kindergarten

Chapter 595: Chapter 505: Can I Register My Child Now to Reserve a Spot? (Part 3)

...

Education Bureau building, parking lot.

After Wan Zhenhong parked the car, he picked up his briefcase and walked with a spring in his step toward the lobby of the Education Bureau.

Just then.

A familiar voice called out from behind: "Old Wan..."

Wan Zhenhong felt a twinge in his heart; he knew who it was without turning around. He stopped in his tracks and immediately turned, giving a slight smile and nodding to Xin Jinghui, who was walking over: "Old Xin, good morning!"

"Good morning!"

Xin Jinghui responded with a smile and noticed that Wan Zhenhong’s smile was harder to suppress than an AK. He naturally didn’t flatter himself thinking Wan Zhenhong was so happy to see him, so he curiously asked, "Old Wan, you seem to be in an exceptionally good mood today. Did something good happen? I’ve seen you grinning nonstop since early morning."

"I’ve been grinning nonstop?"

Wan Zhenhong instinctively touched his own face.

It seems... that’s really the case!

"Absolutely!" Xin Jinghui nodded affirmatively: "Your smile is almost reaching your ears. Spill the beans, what made you so happy?"

"It’s nothing much!"

Although Wan Zhenhong waved his hand, his mouth honestly shared: "Yesterday, Chef Huang taught the kids how to make water pan-fried buns. My daughter Niuniu brought back the buns she made for me to taste, and their taste, oh, it was surprisingly good! Although they can’t compare to Chef Huang’s professional skills, they’re definitely not inferior to those sold outside. As a father, it made my heart so joyful..."

"Were they really that good?"

Upon hearing this, Xin Jinghui felt a mix of surprise and doubt.

It’s not that he doubted Huang Jun’s teaching ability; it’s mainly because Niuniu is so young, at an age where she can barely control her bladder, let alone pots and pans.

After all, even he as an adult often fumbles in the kitchen, not to mention those tiny little hands and feet in kindergarten.

Besides, making tasty water pan-fried buns after one lesson would require full culinary talent...

But he didn’t think so, leaning more towards the idea that Wan Zhenhong found Niuniu’s buns delicious largely due to his "daughter filter".

"Of course it’s true!"

Wan Zhenhong nodded with certainty: "Even my usually picky-mouthed son praised his sister’s water pan-fried buns. Who would have thought that Chef Huang, with his great culinary skills, is also a fantastic teacher? To teach kids to make such delicious buns on the first try, he’s truly a rare talent..."

Having said that, Wan Zhenhong enthusiastically pulled out his phone from his pocket, touched the screen with his fingertips, and opened the photo album.

He showcased his treasured photos and videos one by one, including the warm moments of Niuniu making water pan-fried buns, her class’s shared finished products, and videos of their family of four enjoying the buns... thoroughly impressed by the taste.

Xin Jinghui watched the screen intently, his doubts dissipating as the scenes unfolded, replaced by a deeper admiration for Teacher Huang Jun.

Of course.

It also made him miss Huang Jun’s cooking even more: "Speaking of which, it’s been quite a while since I’ve had Chef Huang’s dishes too!"

"Yes! Same here!" Wan Zhenhong nodded in agreement but then flashed a smug smile: "However, I’m at least a bit luckier than you; I get to eat the water pan-fried buns my daughter learned from Chef Huang and occasionally taste the snacks he prepares!"

"Old Wan, tell me, how did you get to taste the snacks from the kindergarten?"

Xin Jinghui suddenly became interested, wanting Wan Zhenhong to share his secret for snagging a bite.

"I specifically have Niuniu bring some back for me!" Wan Zhenhong’s eyes glistened with cunning: "To get her to bring snacks home each day, I put in a lot of effort, praising and rewarding her before convincing Niuniu to save some snacks for me every day."

Upon hearing this, Xin Jinghui couldn’t help but laugh: "Old Wan, your ’carrot and stick’ method is quite something. Aren’t you afraid your wife will ’educate’ you once she finds out?"

Wan Zhenhong looked unfazed: "Don’t worry, she’s even more proactive than I am; privately, she also uses small tricks to coax Niuniu into bringing back goodies for her. We call it a ’united couple’s effort’!"

Xin Jinghui: "..."

Indeed, birds of a feather flock together!

Indeed, sharing a bed doesn’t breed different kinds!

Knowing this tactic wasn’t suitable for him, Xin Jinghui even slightly regretted not considering having a second child like Wan Zhenhong did back then.

Otherwise, by now, he could at least bribe the child to bring back some snacks for him to satisfy his cravings.

Sigh...

Such regret...

Speaking of which.

If he tried for a second child tonight, would it still be in time?

But... even if the second child plan succeeds, it will be at least five years before they can start kindergarten. How could his cravings wait that long?

So, here’s the problem: is there a way to rightfully sneak a taste of Dorami Kindergarten’s meal soon?

He thought and thought...

Thought and thought...

And he actually came up with a solution...
