Chen Yu's body trembled violently, and even the stuffing he had just picked up almost fell.
Tong Ya's hands were delicate and soft, and when she kneaded him like this, he instantly felt a refreshing shock.
"How is it? Comfortable, right?" Tong Ya giggled, "You stand like this every day, be careful about your cervical spine."
"Wow! Dad, you actually let Teacher Tong Ya give you a shoulder rub!"
Tuan Tuan suddenly climbed onto the dining cart with two bottles of juice in hand.
Chen Yu was about to explain, but Tong Ya beat him to it.
"You little girl, which student in the dance class hasn't been massaged by me! Besides, your dad has been busy for days, if he doesn't move his muscles a bit, it's easy to have problems."
Tuan Tuan placed the juice besides her and hugged Tong Ya's neck from behind.
"Teacher Tong Ya, do you want to rub my dad's shoulders for a lifetime?"
Tong Ya's heart suddenly raced, and her face instantly turned red to the roots of her neck.
Chen Yu rolled his eyes, "What nonsense are you talking, little girl? Are you asking for a spanking?"
Tuan Tuan pouted her little mouth and hid behind Tong Ya.
"By the way, Dad, many customers said you stocked too few types of ice cream!"
Chen Yu snorted lightly, "I think it's you, little girl, getting tired of those few ice cream flavors!"
Tuan Tuan stuck out her tongue, then went to the room to get her backpack, obediently sitting aside to do her homework.
"By the way, Chen Yu, I noticed that today's leftover raw materials are also low, can we close up by seven or eight?" Tong Ya suddenly asked.
Chen Yu instinctively looked around the dining cart, "On weekend afternoons, there will definitely be fewer people; mostly it's the elderly coming for square dancing! We might sell out by six or seven."
"That would be great! There's a dance competition at the Youth Palace tonight, I signed Tuan Tuan up for it half a month ago, I've been so busy these days, I almost forgot about it!"
Upon hearing this, Tuan Tuan immediately jumped up excitedly.
"Really?"
"Of course, it's true!" Tong Ya suddenly became serious, "But before we go, you have to finish your homework!"
Tuan Tuan raised her hands and cheered "hooray," then kissed Tong Ya on the face, before going back to her homework.
This picture of seeming like a family of three made Tong Ya's heart flutter again.
Chen Yu also noticed Tong Ya's change, "Are you feeling unwell? Why is your face so red?"
Tong Ya hurriedly fanned herself with her hand, "No, I'm just too hot!"
Chen Yu didn't press further, only glanced at the food truck's built-in cold storage.
When the dining cart was delivered to Chen Yu, a large amount of solid cooking oil was already stored in the cold storage.
Coupled with the fryer on the dining cart having a filtration system, the consumption of cooking oil wasn't very high, averaging just two large blocks a day.
After the past few days, these blocks of solid oil were nearly finished, with only one block left in the cold storage.
He had to call to stock up this evening.
At four in the afternoon, the elderly came as scheduled for square dancing, and today there seemed to be even more than usual.
"Xiao Chen, did you hire this girl to work for you? She's been here for two days, hasn't she?"
"With such a pretty girl around, no wonder Xiao Chen doesn't want to go on blind dates."
"This girl is incredible, not only pretty but also hardworking, Xiao Chen you should just marry her!"
...
This sudden rush toward marriage left Chen Yu somewhat at a loss.
Tong Ya didn't say anything either, just focused on packing by herself.
Indeed, today, besides these elders, there weren't many people.
Even so, the fried cakes and vegetable dumplings sold out quickly.
By six in the evening, everything was sold out.
[Congratulations to the host for perfectly completing a day's business, today's net profit is forty thousand, seven hundred yuan, earning forty thousand, seven hundred points, current accumulated total points is one hundred six thousand, eight hundred forty points.]
Chen Yu's breathing suddenly became rapid, he hadn't expected it, but the points accumulated to one hundred thousand points so quickly.
With this, he could have a high-level lottery draw.
However, Chen Yu didn't rush to the draw immediately but calmed himself and first called the raw material supplier.
It was the same materials as yesterday, just with an additional ten blocks of solid cooking oil today.
Each block was ten catties, five yuan per catty, totaling five hundred yuan.
So tomorrow's total cost was nineteen thousand, six hundred yuan!
After paying, Chen Yu found his savings had reached an astonishing eighty thousand, nine hundred twenty yuan.
In Suzhou City, this amount was enough for a down payment on a small house.
At this moment, Tong Ya and Tuan Tuan had also changed clothes, and the three went together in Tong Ya's car, heading straight for the Youth Palace.
Perhaps because of the competition, there were surprisingly many people at the Youth Palace today.
Tuan Tuan held the hands of Tong Ya and Chen Yu, skipping joyfully.
This scene immediately drew envious glances from passersby.
"This family of three is just so good-looking!"
"That's good genes, great inheritance!"
"The child is already so big, yet they're still so loving, truly a model family."
"I think I've seen that little kid before, wasn't she the champion of the last Youth Palace dance competition?"
...
Hearing the comments along the way, Tong Ya not only wasn't angry, but her heart raced, and like a little girl, she couldn't help but sway her body.
When they arrived at the competition venue, all the participating kids were already in tense preparation.
But Tuan Tuan wasn't nervous at all, casually changing into her dance outfit and heading to the preparation area.
Chen Yu and Tong Ya made a cheering gesture for her and then went to the audience seats.
"I've told you before, Tuan Tuan's talent in dance is quite unparalleled!"
Tong Ya inexplicably got excited.
Chen Yu smiled and nodded, "It's because you raised her well!"
Upon hearing Chen Yu's praise, Tong Ya immediately bit her lower lip.
"Oh, right! If Tuan Tuan wins the championship in this competition, there will be a ten thousand yuan prize! Just enough for tuition."
Chen Yu was slightly startled, it seemed like Tong Ya had been thinking of ways to support Tuan Tuan for a long time.
"Thank you!"
The word "thank you" made Tong Ya's breathing quicken, in her view, it was Chen Yu's acknowledgment of her efforts.
The competition began, with Tuan Tuan being the first on stage.
From her graceful dance moves, Chen Yu surprisingly saw an elegance derived from life itself.
It seemed that the events of this period had greatly impacted Tuan Tuan.
Yet this little girl could incorporate all her emotions into her dance, enough to showcase her talent.
Chen Yu suddenly felt that the best decision he ever made was sending Tuan Tuan to learn dance, no matter the cost.
As the music stopped, Tuan Tuan froze on stage with incredible poise.
Thunderous applause erupted, indicating everyone present knew the champion title already belonged to Tuan Tuan.
