Chapter 185: Chapter 176: What Should I Do? I Want Them All

Liang Yinqiu led the head of the parent committees of various classes, marching grandly towards the teaching building.

The purpose of this trip is to let these parent committee heads visit their children’s classrooms and gain a deeper understanding of their children’s life and learning at school.

They hadn’t reached their destination yet!

Liang Yinqiu and her group keenly sensed an atmosphere of excitement ahead.

Looking up…

They saw childcare teachers from each class carrying trays laden with food, slowly emerging from the direction of the kitchen one by one.

The breeze gently blew, carrying wafts of fruity fragrance in the air, and at the same time, the voices of the childcare teachers’ conversations drifted with the wind, filled with admiration for someone.

“Chef Huang really put his heart into it this time!” Wu Meijuan praised, “To encourage the kids to eat more fruit, he really went the extra mile. Look at these fruits, not only are they fresh and tasty, but he also creatively carved the dragon fruits into various animals, it’s truly thoughtful.”

“I always knew Chef Huang’s cooking was great, but I didn’t expect his carving skills to be so amazing too!” Zeng Qiaoxian said with surprise.

Wang Wenxia couldn’t help but exclaim, “Chef Huang’s skills are fabulous! I think he could totally teach the kids craftwork, he might even be better than Miss Yang in our class. Look at his fruit carvings, they’re more exquisite and vivid than the soap carvings Miss Yang does! It’s truly impressive!”

This remark aroused curiosity among Liang Yinqiu and the others.

Liang Yinqiu wondered aloud, “What’s better than what Miss Yang makes?”

The childcare teachers from each class heard this and looked up towards the voice…

They immediately saw Liang Yinqiu and the group of parent committee heads.

Smiling, they greeted in unison, “Hello, Director Liang, hello, all parent committee heads!”

The parent committee heads politely responded, “Hello, teachers!”

Liang Yinqiu nodded with a smile and said, “Oh, hello, everyone!”

“Director Liang, take a look, these are the fruits Chef Huang specially prepared this morning.” Wang Wenxia responded to Liang Yinqiu’s earlier curiosity with a smile while nodding towards the fruit on her tray for Liang Yinqiu to see.

She originally intended to show a few dragon fruits carved into animal shapes to Liang Yinqiu and her group, but the tray was a bit heavy, she couldn’t steady it with one hand, so she invited Liang Yinqiu to come closer for a look.

Curious, Liang Yinqiu and the others stepped closer and peered carefully at the fruits in the tray.

It was quite a sight…

Upon seeing those dragon fruits carved into various adorable animal shapes…

They were all left in mouth-agape surprise.

“Is this really a dragon fruit? How does it look exactly like a Dalmatian dog?”

With an astonished face, Liang Yinqiu carefully picked up a dragon fruit from the tray and examined it closely. How could this just be a fruit? It’s a lifelike Dalmatian dog sculpture!

No, it’s even more exquisite and realistic than a model; even the spots are intricately carved.

In her mind, kindergarten fruit snacks were simple chunks and slices. Who would have thought of such stunning carvings?

Moreover, these dragon fruits in front of her were carved in various lively forms by Huang Jun, as if a group of playful and adorable little animals were leaping off the plate. It was truly eye-opening…

It was something utterly unimaginable…

Chef Huang actually has such a remarkable skill!

Liang Yinqiu felt once again like she had found a treasure!

Simultaneously filled with curiosity and anticipation, she wondered how many more surprises Huang Jun had in store for her to discover.

“Director Liang, this is indeed dragon fruit. There’s no rule in our kindergarten against carving dragon fruit into animal shapes, right?” Wang Wenxia and other childcare teachers, hearing Liang Yinqiu’s words, worried she misunderstood Chef Huang’s intentions and might blame him for taking initiatives, so they cautiously inquired.

Immediately realizing the potential misunderstanding her words could cause, Liang Yinqiu knew Huang Jun did all of this for the children’s benefit, and quickly explained, “Oh no, I didn’t mean that. There’s no such rule in the kindergarten. I was just too amazed, never expected Chef Huang could carve the dragon fruits so vividly, his skills are outstanding!”

The other parent committee heads, now also snapped out of their daze, exclaimed with admiration.

“Wow… were all these animals carved by Chef Huang? They look just like the real thing, it’s unbelievable!” Lin Huiyi exclaimed continuously, filled with anticipation for the upcoming lunch.

It must be delicious.

She had tasted the pumpkin cakes made by Huang Jun, still longing for them to this day, savoring every thought, hoping for the chance to experience Chef Huang’s exquisite skills once more.

Now, the opportunity had finally arrived!

Soon, she would have the chance to taste Chef Huang’s exquisite skills again, certainly another unforgettable culinary journey!

“Amazing! I always thought Qingqing’s dad was only good at cooking, but his carving skills are equally exceptional.” Xu Sijun sincerely praised.

Mai Linjie couldn’t help but marvel, “These animals are carved so lifelike, you almost can’t bear to eat them! By the way, are the kids truly willing to eat such charming little animals?”

“I don’t know if the kids are, but I certainly am not!”

Responded one of the parent committee heads with a laugh.

In their hearts, they all felt that Dorami Kindergarten truly put a lot of thought into its meals.

Even with something as simple as fruit, it’s carved into adorable animal shapes to tempt children’s appetites.

In the whole city, it would be hard to find another kindergarten that puts as much thought and creativity into its meals.

They once again felt that choosing Dorami Kindergarten back then was a wise decision.

Speaking of which, wouldn’t it be a shame not to take photos of such exquisite fruit animals as a souvenir?

So…

With a smile, Lin Huiyi asked Liang Yinqiu, “Director Liang, can I take a few photos? These fruit animals are too adorable, I want to keep them as a memento.”

“Of course you can!” Liang Yinqiu agreed readily.

Upon hearing this, other committee heads also picked up their phones.

“Click click~”

As the shutter sound rang out, everyone gathered around the caregiving teachers, capturing photos of the fruity animals among the dishes.

Each photo captured their vivid lifelike shapes, as if trying to eternally preserve the beauty of this moment.

After taking photos, they admired them and expressed gratitude to the caregiving teachers of each class: “Thank you, teacher, sorry for the bother…”

“You’re welcome, we’ll get going now, so the kids don’t get impatient.”

The caregiving teachers responded with a smile, and then went their separate ways.

Liang Yinqiu and others followed right behind.

…

“Children, delicious fruits are here!”

Upon entering the Class (4) room, Wang Wenxia cheerfully announced, carrying a tray towards the dining table.

By this time, the children had already washed their little hands meticulously under the guidance of Yang Yuxi and Xie Jianing, and sat upright in their seats, eagerly awaiting the arrival of breakfast.

When Yang Yuxi and Xie Jianing came over to help, their eyes collectively fell on the fruits in the tray.

Instantly…

Their mouths opened wide in surprise, forming an “O” shape!

Yang Yuxi struggled to believe her eyes, blinking to confirm again: “Teacher Wang, is this… is this dragon fruit?”

Xie Jianing was even more surprised, thinking, “Is this something I get to see for free?” She stared wide-eyed, muttering to herself: “Today’s fruit snacks are indeed something else… If it wasn’t for the familiar dragon fruit aroma wafting over, I would have thought the teacher brought a bunch of exquisite animal models!”

At this moment, she and Yang Yuxi suddenly realized what Weiwei meant by saying the fruit snacks were different this morning!

It turned out there was an additional carving process!

But it must be said, this carving indeed is remarkable, almost dazzling their 24K titanium eyes!

Wang Wenxia looked at the surprised expressions of Yang Yuxi and Xie Jianing, inwardly marveling, she had encountered numerous such surprised expressions on her way here.

Thinking back to her own astonishment when first seeing the animal-shaped dragon fruits, it took her quite a while to calm her excited heart…

She nodded and laughed: “Haha… When I first saw them, I also thought they were exquisite animal models! But be sure not to be mistaken, these are specially prepared by Chef Huang for the children. Each one is carved so vividly, they look beautiful, almost too good to eat, and they surely taste delicious too. The children will absolutely love seeing these fruit snacks!”

Sure enough!

When the children saw the lifelike dragon fruit animal carvings, their eyes instantly lit up like lightbulbs, sparkling with excitement and surprise, and their little mouths opened wide enough to fit an egg.

“Wow… what adorable little animals…”

“Wow! There’s a little rabbit hiding inside this dragon fruit skin, oh, there’s also a little puppy inside this dragon fruit skin, and inside this one there’s a little lion…”

In an instant…

The children couldn’t help but crane their necks, trying hard to look at the big dining table more clearly.

Seeing the eager looks on the children’s faces, Yang Yuxi smiled and educated them: “Children, these adorable dragon fruit animal snacks were specially prepared for everyone by Qingqing’s dad. Do you know? These little animals didn’t originally look this way, but were carefully carved one slice at a time by Qingqing’s dad using a carving knife on the dragon fruit flesh…”

Qingqing and Weiwei suddenly understood what their dad meant by his words this morning.

The two sisters exclaimed in amazement, “Wow… Dad is so awesome…”

Weiwei proudly said to Yuanyuan, “Yuanyuan, see I was right? The fruits my dad makes are indeed special, right?”

“Mmm mmm…” Yuanyuan nodded her little head strongly, thinking these dragon fruit animal carvings are both cute and edible, she couldn’t help but praise Weiwei: “Weiwei, your dad is really amazing…”

“Naturally, my dad is super awesome!”

If the children praised Weiwei, Weiwei would mostly return a calm smile and wouldn’t care much.

But once the topic turned to her dad, her little face would instantly light up with a bright smile, and her eyes would sparkle with pride and joy.

After all, in her heart, her dad is the most incredible person!

Any praise for her dad makes her feel extremely happy and proud.

Yuanyuan initiated her daily question: “Weiwei, Qingqing, can I swap these dragon fruit animal carvings for your dad later?”

“No!”

Qingqing and Weiwei refused without hesitation.

Yang Yuxi smiled and said to the children: “Alright, everyone sit nicely, we’re going to start distributing breakfast.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the children quickly expressed their wishes:

“Miss Yang, I want the white rabbit, it’s my favorite!”

“I also want the white rabbit, and the puppy is cute too, ooh, what do I do, I want them all!”

Yang Yuxi smiled and explained: “These dragon fruit animal carvings aren’t one per person, we need to share and taste them together.”

Upon hearing this, the children felt a bit disappointed, pouting:

“Ooh ooh ooh, the animals are so cute, do we really have to eat them?”

“…”
