Genius Daddy in the City - Chapter 666
Chapter 666: Lin City’s First Snow!
Saturday morning on October 8th, Ye Chen was still hiding under the covers when he was woken up early in the morning.
“Daddy, wake up! Open the door!
Daddy, it’s snowing! It’s snowing!”
His daughter, Mengmeng, was knocking on the door. Her voice was filled with excitement. The newly changed door could not withstand her strength.
“Is it snowing?”
Ye Chen stood up and walked to the window to take a look.
As expected, the snowflakes that were like goose feathers fluttered down. The window lattices were covered with a thick layer of snow, and the willow trees outside the window were covered with a layer of silver. They looked like snow pines.
Yes, it was snowing!
It meant winter was here!
Ye Chen could not help but smile warmly.
It was the first time that it had snowed in Lin City since he returned to earth!
It was also the first winter that he had spent with his daughter!
Mengmeng was still knocking on the door outside. He even heard her complaining to Su Yuhan, “Mommy, I can’t wake daddy up. He’s even lazier than me.”
“Kick the door open if you can’t wake him.”
Su Yuhan’s voice could be heard faintly.
Ye Chen walked over and opened the door immediately.
The little girl was wearing a yellow down jacket, and her face was flushing from the cold. Even so, she was still glowing with excitement.
Qianqian, who was wearing a sky blue down jacket, followed behind her.
Compared to Mengmeng, Qianqian rolled up her sleeves, revealing a pair of thin and slender arms.
When the little girl saw him, she pouted and said, “Daddy, why are you only opening the door now? I’ve been calling for you for a long time!”
Ye Chen squatted down and pinched her red cheeks, “I was wondering where I should bring my daughter to play today.”
“Daddy, are we going out to play today?”
The little girl’s expression instantly brightened up as she said with a radiant smile, “Daddy, I want to build snowmen and have snowball fights…”
Ye Chen said between laughter and tears, “Alright, alright, alright. We’ll do what you say. However, aren’t you going to kiss me?”
Subsequently, he moved his face closer.
“Daddy hasn’t even washed your face. You haven’t shaved in a long time.”
The little girl was a little annoyed. However, she leaned over and kissed Ye Chen on the cheek for her father’s sake.
“Come on, let’s go out first. We’ll go build a snowman after mommy finishes making breakfast, okay?”
Ye Chen walked out with the two little girls.
His parents, Ye Hai and Wu Lan, were sitting at the door and watching the snow outside. The two old people no longer have diseases such as rheumatism after eating Ye Chen’s medicinal pills.
Ye Hai looked outside calmly, “Auspicious snow heralds a bountiful year!”
Ye Chen smiled and walked into the kitchen.
Su Yuhan was in an apron and she was putting noodles into the pot. The steam made her face red.
Ye Chen hugged her from behind.
Su Yuhan turned around and slapped his hand with chopsticks. When she saw Ye Chen moving his lips over, she said in disdain, “Go wash your face and brush your teeth. You’re an adult, yet you’re still acting like a child.”
Ye Chen refused to let go, “Have you thought about how to celebrate Mengmeng’s birthday today?”
“That’s for sure!”
Su Yuhan rolled her eyes at him. Then, she stole a glance at the two little girls outside and said, “This is what I plan to do. We’ll celebrate our daughter’s birthday tonight. I’ve ordered a cake too. You can do whatever you want during the day. We’ll watch a movie together at night.”
“What movie?” Ye Chen was interested.
Truth to be told, he had never been to a cinema since he returned to earth. Even Su Yuhan was no exception. His experience and age were the factors too. After all, they were no longer young lovers.
Su Yuhan revealed a charming smile, “Isn’t it snowing today? So, let’s watch ‘Wandering Earth’. I heard from my friend that it’s pretty good.”
“Whatever you say!”
Ye Chen pecked her on her lips when she was not looking. Then, he ran into the bathroom as if he was escaping. In reality, after entering the path of cultivation, not only could people abstain from eating, they were also spotless in cleanliness.
However, since he was at home, he might as well do as the Romans do.
After washing up, he heard his parents talking and laughing. He asked curiously, “Dad, mom, what are you guys talking about?”
Wu Lan was overjoyed, “Your father said that it will be Lidong the day after tomorrow. He was wondering if he should eat dog meat and Mengmeng immediately said she would eat Cutie.”
Lidong marked the true arrival of winter!
On this day, the customs in the north and south were different. Most people in the north ate dumplings around bed-stove, while people in the south ate meat, especially dog meat.
Dog meat could warm the kidneys and strengthen the body, as well as resisting the cold.
It was also how the custom of eating dog meat during Lidong came about.
Ye Chen glared at Mengmeng after hearing that, “Cutie used to make you so happy, but you actually want to eat his meat. What are you thinking? You’re so heartless.”
Although Ye Chen addressed the Patriarch of Hell differently, the entire Ye family still called him Cutie out of habit.
It was almost impossible for the patriarch to get rid of this title!
Seeing that his father was unhappy, the little girl stuck out her tongue playfully and said, “Cutie is naughty. Cutie ran away secretly and didn’t even bid farewell to me. If I catch him, I will definitely pluck his hair.”
“That’s right, Xiaochen. Cutie has been away for a long time. Where did he go?” Wu Lan asked from the side, her eyes filled with longing.
Ye Chen comforted her, “Mom, there’s something that Cutie needs to deal with out there. Don’t worry, he’ll be back soon.”
While they were talking, Su Yuhan placed the noodles on the table, “Dad, mom, breakfast is ready…”
Ye Chen stood outside the house and took a look at the snow outside. He could not help but think of the Patriarch of Hell, “I wonder how the patriarch is doing…”
…
It was covered in silver thousands of kilometers away in the northeast.
In a peach blossom forest, a beautiful white-clothed woman was still trapped in the stone pavilion like before. She wore the same white dress and played the piano day after day.
The lady in white seemed to have sensed something when Ye Chen looked to the north. She said slowly, “No.3, how’s the guy at the back of the mountain?”
A giant python dashed over and spoke in human language, “Big sister, that guy surnamed Huang has been in there for more than ten days. He hasn’t eaten or drunk anything, he hasn’t come out.”
At this point, it seemed to remember something, “There’s a formation at the back of the mountain. We can’t get in, so we don’t know whether that guy is dead or alive.”
Hu Meiling’s eyes flashed with brilliance, “Interesting.”
As they were talking, the Patriarch of Hell’s voice rang in their heads, “Hey babe, I’m hungry. Can you get your people to send me something to eat?”
Babe?
The white python was enraged upon hearing that.
Hu Meiling was slightly taken aback. She smiled and said, “What would you like to eat?”
The Patriarch of Hell’s voice sounded again.
“Ahem, dog food!
I want this brand called Myfoodie…”
