"Where did you go today? Why are you only getting back now?"
Su Huamei's tone was tinged with complaint when Liu Nanfeng brought Xiao Liyu to the shop in the afternoon.
"We went for a big meal," Xiao Liyu said excitedly.
"Wow, you had a big meal and didn't even call me," Su Huamei said, deliberately putting on a sad expression when she heard this.
"It's okay, it's okay, this is for you to eat," Xiao Liyu quickly offered the banana in her hand.
Su Huamei also pretended to reach out and take it.
Xiao Liyu continued, "Don't be too sad, the boss was so stingy, he didn't let us eat anymore because he thought we ate too much."
Speaking of this, Xiao Liyu got angry again. How could they do this?
"Huh?" Su Huamei was a little surprised and asked if there were shops that turned customers away.
So she cast a questioning glance at Liu Nanfeng.
Liu Nanfeng smiled and explained it to her roughly, and Su Huamei really couldn't stop laughing.
"If you ate without restraint, you'd put any restaurant out of business."
"No way," Liu Nanfeng said with insufficient confidence.
"But can Xiao Liyu eat a lot too?" Su Huamei was a little confused.
Although Xiao Liyu often clamored to eat and drink a lot before, it was just talk. Her appetite was not actually large.
"Because she's no longer just a simple little carp," Liu Nanfeng said with a smile.
"Huh? Did you see Zhu Yin'e? When?" Su Huamei asked in surprise.
Then her face showed gossip, and she wasn't jealous, because her sister would eat twice as much for her.
"A few days ago."
"Good heavens, you didn't tell me. Say, did you do anything to betray me?" Su Huamei put down the banana in her hand, raised her eyebrows, and asked pretending to be angry.
"What nonsense are you talking about..."
Liu Nanfeng helplessly explained the whole thing in detail.
While they were talking, Xiao Liyu had already put her little hands together and wandered around.
"Sister Song, you are so beautiful, and you smell so good."
"Really? This flower is for you, I'll help you put it on your head."
So Xiao Liyu got a beautiful flower from Song Haitang.
"Wow, Sister Xu, what are you doing? It smells so good, you're amazing."
"This is coffee, you can't drink it. Here, this bottle of milk is for you."
"Thank you, Sister Xu."
So Xiao Liyu got a bottle of milk from Xu Xinyi.
Then she went straight into the back kitchen, into Hong Xiumin's territory.
Hong Xiumin had just finished making the cake and was adding cream and making patterns.
Xiao Liyu didn't bother her, holding the milk bottle and watching from the side, sniffing occasionally.
"Doesn't it smell very good?" Hou Xiumin teased her, asking intentionally.
Xiao Liyu nodded repeatedly, then said, "Sister, you are amazing, the pastries you make look and smell better than Sister Yuchan's."
Hong Xiumin didn't know who Sister Yuchan was, but she assumed it was someone she knew.
"Do you want to eat it?" Hong Xiumin asked with a smile.
"Yes, I really want to eat it." Xiao Liyu didn't know about politeness, and nodded repeatedly when she heard this.
"Then give me a kiss," Hong Xiumin bent down and said.
Just this?
This was too simple for Xiao Liyu. She stood on tiptoe and kissed Hong Xiumin on the cheek with a smack.
Looking at the chubby little one, Hong Xiumin was also very fond of her, and directly gave her the largest cake.
So Xiao Liyu, with a flower on her head, milk in one hand, and cake in the other, marched proudly towards Liu Nanfeng.
"Oh, you even got some food? Amazing?"
"Giggle giggle..."
Xiao Liyu burst into laughter upon hearing this, but she didn't dare to laugh too loudly, for fear that if she exerted too much force, she would drop the delicious cake.
Su Huamei, who was standing beside her, reached out to take it, fearing she might drop it.
Xiao Liyu misunderstood Su Huamei as wanting to eat her cake. Her eyes widened, and she wanted to pull her hand back, but she was afraid the cake would fall on the ground.
The reluctance and entanglement on her face at that moment were so comical that Su Huamei couldn't help but turn her head to the side and laugh, for fear that she would laugh and spray on the cake.
Seeing Su Huamei help her put the cake on the table next to them, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She obediently climbed onto the chair and sat down, and then—
She found there were no tools to eat the cake with.
Liu Nanfeng, sitting opposite her, said nothing, just wanting to see what she would do.
Then she saw Xiao Liyu hesitate for a moment, then open her mouth wide and headbutt the cake on the table.
"Ahhh..."
Fortunately, Liu Nanfeng was quick-handed and reached out to support her forehead, otherwise, her face would have been covered in cake by now.
The little one raised her head and looked at Liu Nanfeng with confusion, her big eyes blinking, as if to say, "Do you want to eat it too? But there isn't much, I want to eat it myself."
"Go and get a spoon from Sister Xu," Liu Nanfeng pointed to the counter and said helplessly.
"Oh~" Xiao Liyu showed a look of sudden realization.
Then she slid off the chair and ran towards the counter, but halfway there, she seemed to remember something, and quickly turned to look at the cake on the table.
Seeing that the cake was still there, she walked towards the counter with her body sideways.
Liu Nanfeng: ...
Su Huamei: "Haha..."
"I won't steal your cake, just focus on walking forward," Liu Nanfeng said helplessly.
Only then did Xiao Liyu walk to the counter with peace of mind and ask Xu Xinyi for a plastic spoon.
Just as she was about to walk back with the spoon, the cafe door was suddenly pushed open, and someone walked in from outside.
Xiao Liyu looked at the other person, and the other person also looked at Xiao Liyu.
Then, like a startled cat, Xiao Liyu's fur stood on end.
"Hi~" The young girl opposite her smiled and waved at her.
"Bad kitty," Xiao Liyu shouted loudly, then turned and ran, crashing into Liu Nanfeng's arms.
"Huh?" Yang Ruoyun was surprised by this. That this little fish could see her true form was really unexpected.
"You're here," Su Huamei greeted her with a smile.
"What would you like to drink?"
"Get me a latte, half sugar," Yang Ruoyun said as she sat down at the counter.
On the surface, she acted as if nothing happened, but in fact, she pricked up her ears, eavesdropping on Xiao Liyu and Liu Nanfeng's conversation.
"Big brother, big brother, that's the bad kitty. She didn't run away from home, she turned into a human. I knew it, I knew it, the bad kitty would definitely turn into a bad person and come back to bully me," Xiao Liyu said indignantly.
She didn't know why she always had a problem with Mo Yu. Was it just because one was a cat and the other was a fish?
But now Xiao Liyu wasn't a fish anymore!
No, she was now half fish and half bird, this...
"Alright, I'm here, what are you afraid of? Eat your cake." Liu Nanfeng reached out and helped her sit down at the table.
Looking at the cake in front of her, Xiao Liyu temporarily forgot her troubles and took several bites before she remembered the bad kitty again. Then she tilted her body and secretly peeked towards the counter. She looked so amusing.
In fact, the person at the counter was also paying attention to them.
Yang Ruoyun put down her empty cup, took out a wallet, counted out seventeen yuan from it, and placed it on the counter one by one. Then, as usual, she turned and left directly.
This wasn't the first time she had come these days, and everyone had gradually gotten used to her style of entrance.
However, after she left, Liu Nanfeng thought for a moment and got up to chase after her.
