Shi Nuan’s body slightly stiffened, and she instinctively called out, "Second Uncle..."
Song Yansheng lowered his head, resting his chin on her shoulder, nose surrounded by the fresh scent of her hair.
It smelled very nice, making him somewhat reluctant to part.
If he could, he would really like to hold her forever, feeling her presence until the ends of the earth, until the end of life, and never let go.
But he knew he couldn’t.
The closer he got now, the more he would push her away.
She was the girl he watched grow up, truly, he knew her too well.
Song Yansheng loosened his grip a little and said, "It’s tilted, I’m afraid it will fall apart soon. Instead of this, let’s tie it again... Don’t worry, it’ll be quick!"
Shi Nuan lowered her gaze, her back pressed against his strong chest, she could sense his heartbeat clearly.
Unable to refuse, she nodded and said, "...Alright!"
Song Yansheng chuckled lightly. His little girl was still very obedient.
After tying her hair again, it was almost a minute later.
Shi Nuan thought it should be fine now, but as soon as he let go after tying her hair, his fingers naturally slid down to hold her slender shoulders...
Then he spun her around within his arms, and the two of them quickly stood face to face...
Shi Nuan felt embarrassed, but Song Yansheng remained composed. He reached out to brush aside her bangs and seemed satisfied, saying, "Though my skills aren’t great, thankfully our Nuannuan is naturally beautiful... still looks very nice!"
Shi Nuan blushed and hurriedly said, "...Second Uncle, it’s getting late!"
Meaning, we should hurry and start cooking!
Song Yansheng smiled, "Alright, you continue picking vegetables; I’ll be in charge of cooking!"
Shi Nuan’s gaze wavered slightly: So, Song Yansheng... can actually cook?
Later, Shi Nuan realized that Song Yansheng was not only capable of cooking, but he was as skilled as a professional chef.
Watching him skillfully chop vegetables, especially when he sliced the beef with each slice being almost identical in size and thickness...
Shi Nuan was genuinely impressed...
Who would have thought that the president of the prestigious TK Group, who was admired in the business world, Song Yansheng, was actually a culinary expert!
Probably noticing the little girl’s curiosity, Song Yansheng raised his handsome brows and asked, "What’s this? Very curious?"
Shi Nuan blinked her eyes, not denying it, indeed very curious!
Song Yansheng said, "Actually, there’s nothing to be curious about... Don’t forget, I spent a full seven years abroad!"
Leaving at fourteen, returning at twenty-one, Song Yansheng rarely mentioned his overseas life to others. When asked once by the media, he simply brushed it off with, "Compared to the past, I focus more on the future."
But Song Yansheng had a serious stomach issue. He even mentioned he had turned into a fool once...
After returning, why didn’t he take over the Song Family but established TK instead, and where did the funding to start TK come from...
All of these are a mystery!
But none of that had anything to do with Shi Nuan. Thinking for a moment, Shi Nuan asked, "Then, Second Uncle, did you cook for yourself while abroad?"
Song Yansheng smiled, "No, I was too busy studying and working, so I didn’t cook much, just worked as an apprentice at a Chinese restaurant for a year!"
"An apprentice?" Shi Nuan was a little surprised!
Song Yansheng nodded, "Yes, you might not believe it, but at the time, the chefs at the restaurant said I was very talented. If I worked hard, I might become an exceptional chef in the future... They were quite regretful when I left!"
