– At South Hill Manor –
"Grandpa, when can we eat?" Little Bean asked impatiently as she circled the professor in the kitchen.
Pudding sat calmly in the living room, watching TV and analyzing the stock market.
She heard from Su Yu that after Huo Siqian disappeared, the Huo Corporation basically collapsed. However, the news hadn't been released yet.
The outside world didn't know that Huo Siqian had finished his apprenticeship and that the Huo Corporation was only an empty shell.
Pudding held a lot of Huo Corporation shares. She planned to sell them all when the market opened tomorrow and … cash out.
"Okay, right away." The professor smiled.
"Grandpa, you lied. You just said it would be done soon …" Little Bean pouted.
"Haha. Little girl, are you starving?" The professor squatted down and hugged Little Bean, his face full of love.
"Yeah. When I heard we could go home, Grandma Su asked me to stay for dinner. I didn't eat."
"Okay. Go out and call your sister. Wash your hands and wait at the dining table. I'll bring the food out."
"Okay."
Hearing that it was time to eat, Little Bean ran out like the wind.
"Sis, wash your hands. Grandpa said it's time to eat."
"Okay."
Pudding nodded. Putting down the tablet in her hand, she got up and walked to the sink.
After washing their hands, the two sisters sat at the dining table obediently and waited.
Sure enough, the professor brought them a bowl of tiramisu. It looked even better than the ones sold at the bakery.
"Grandpa, did you really make this?" Little Bean couldn't believe it.
"Yeah. How is it?"
"It looks good. I can't judge it until I finish eating." Little Bean licked her lips.
"Okay. I'll wait for you to grade Grandpa."
Then, the professor brought over a plate of black pepper steak and fried ham and placed it in front of Pudding.
"Thank you, Grandpa."
Pudding was much calmer than Little Bean.
Then, the professor went into the kitchen and brought out two small bowls of noodles.
"Here, one for each of you."
"What's this?" Little Bean looked at it curiously.
"I made noodles with vegetables and eggs for you … You won't be full just from eating that."
"Grandpa, you're so good at cooking. You can cook anything."
"That's right. Grandpa knows a lot of things." The professor looked at his granddaughter proudly.
"Grandpa, are you really my mommy's father?" Little Bean suddenly asked.
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"But doesn't a person only have one father? If you're Mommy's father, then what about the grandfather who passed away? "
Little Bean thought about it for a whole night, but she still couldn't figure out the connection, so she was very curious.
"I can't explain all of this in a few sentences. You'll slowly understand in the future." The professor smiled.
"Grandpa, why aren't you eating?" Pudding saw that her grandpa only made food for the two of them, but there was nothing in front of him.
"Grandpa is old. He can't eat too much at night. He'll feel uncomfortable."
"I see … Grandpa, have some ice cream then … I'll get it for you. It's very sweet."
Then, Little Bean ran to the fridge and opened it. She took out a box of ice cream and placed it in front of the professor.
"Okay, Grandpa, have some ice cream."
The professor used to think that he would have to risk his life for scientific research. He never thought that one day, he would be able to take care of two granddaughters.
They lived the most ordinary life, ate the most ordinary food, and enjoyed the happiest time.
If Huo Mien was here, this scene would be even more heartwarming.
Thinking of this, the professor's eyes filled with tears.
"Grandpa, why are you crying? Are you tired from cooking for us?" Little Bean asked.
