Gourmet: Twins' Father and Chef of the Kindergarten

Chapter 299 - 280: Fear Not a Godlike Opponent, But a Piglike Teammate... (2)

"Okay, then Teacher Jiang will take you to eat..."

Jiang Xinzhuo replied with a smile, then nodded to Zhou Zhichong and his wife, and led Chenchen into the kindergarten.

Zhou Zhichong watched the backs of Chenchen and Jiang Xinzhuo walking into the kindergarten, inhaling the scent of caramel pudding, and couldn’t help but have mischievous thoughts.

He leaned in with a smile to whisper in Lin Huiyi’s ear, "Honey, what if Chenchen doesn’t want to go to school? We could take him home, and maybe pack his breakfast to go too."

Lin Huiyi: "..."

You sure know how to dream!

But the problem is...

If we take him home, who’s going to look after him?

You?

Though she was also tempted by the kindergarten breakfast, the thought of the exhausting National Day holiday spent taking care of the child made her think it might be better to send the little "beast" back to school. Otherwise, she might just break down...

After all, whoever takes care of the kid, breaks down...

The main concern was that kindergarten breakfast, portioned as it was, wouldn’t be much—they wouldn’t get much after all.

For the family of three, it might not even fill the gaps in their teeth...

Therefore!

No point in making a fuss!

...

Inside the kindergarten.

When the caretakers brought back the caramel pudding that Huang Jun had meticulously prepared, the entire hallway was instantly filled with the alluring scent of caramel pudding.

As soon as the caretakers entered the classroom...

The children, who could barely sit still before, couldn’t contain their excitement any longer.

Each of them craned their necks, their eyes fixated on the trays the caretakers were holding...

More precisely, they were looking at the enticingly colored, fragrant caramel puddings on the trays.

Even the usually composed class teachers couldn’t help but crane their necks, eager to catch a glimpse of the caramel pudding.

The reason for such loss of composure...

Was simply because, during this time, they had not tasted the delicacies made by Huang Jun; the longing in their hearts, like a trickle, had gathered into a river, desperately wanting to taste the sweet flavor of the caramel pudding.

To satisfy a craving...

In the trays...

Each small, exquisite ceramic bowl held a caramel pudding rich in color.

The pudding was a soft light yellow, smooth and delicate, like a solidified moonbeam, quietly resting on the plate.

Its surface quivered slightly, showing its tenderness and delicacy, tempting people to gently touch it and feel that softness.

On top of the pudding, there was a layer of golden-yellow caramel evenly spread.

The caramel layer was of moderate thickness, exhibiting an enticing amber color, exuding an alluring gloss and sweet aroma.

A sprinkling of cocoa powder on the caramel layer added a touch of depth and made the entire pudding look more sophisticated and tempting.

The boundary between the pudding and the caramel was not clear; they blended together to form a unique visual effect.

"Caramel pudding ding, caramel pudding ding~"

"Such beautiful caramel pudding, such fragrant caramel pudding!"

"Wow... is this the caramel pudding?"

"Gulp, I really want to eat it..."

"Gulp~"

For a moment, as the children vaguely caught sight of the true appearance of the caramel pudding and inhaled its sweet aroma, they all couldn’t help but show a hint of "hungry and thirsty" expression, and they all coincidentally began to "perform a swallowing exercise".

Because of the overlap, the sound of "swallowing saliva" was particularly loud in the wide, quiet classroom.

What a bunch of little foodies...

And truth be told, seeing those little expressions, they looked quite adorable!

The teachers couldn’t help but smile, holding back their laughter, and truly admired Huang Jun’s culinary skills from the bottom of their hearts.

Only the food made by Huang Jun could make those little ones show the same "hungry and thirsty" expression and collectively swallow their saliva...

However, smelling the tempting aroma, looking at the enticing caramel pudding, the older kids could barely sit still, but the kids in the middle and lower grades couldn’t sit still at all; they were like little bottoms with thorns, eager to get up and rush to the caretakers...

Fortunately, the teachers, who were attentive and observant, noticed their unease and immediately spoke out, "Everyone sit nicely, the teacher is going to distribute the caramel pudding. Whoever sits nicely first will get theirs first."

Once these words were spoken, they instantly calmed the restless hearts of the children.

They immediately sat up straight, putting their little hands on the table, eagerly waiting for the teachers to distribute the food.

It wasn’t easy, really not easy!

To get to eat earlier, the kids were really trying hard.

The teachers also sprang into action immediately, lest the little ones get impatient and start fussing again.

A moment later.

Chenchen and other children who received the caramel pudding first immediately picked up their spoons, scooped a bite, and started eating, momentarily forgetting dining etiquette.

It was fragrant and sweet, like candy rapidly melting in their mouths...

The children’s eyes lit up, shaking their heads happily.

"Teacher, today’s caramel pudding is so delicious, it’s the best caramel pudding I’ve ever had."

"Teacher, the caramel pudding is so tasty, you should try it too~"

"..."

Listening to the children’s tender praise and heartwarming words, the teachers nodded with smiles, "Alright, alright, we get it. Enjoy your snack, don’t talk."

After distributing the food, the teachers couldn’t help but pick up a caramel pudding to start eating.

When the spoon lightly tapped the golden caramel shell, the crisp sound heralded the deliciousness about to be tasted.

The shell cracked in the mouth instantly, releasing the sweet aroma of caramel, the rich flavor of cocoa powder, contrasting sharply with the soft pudding below.

The pudding itself was so light, so delicate, slowly melting in the mouth, leaving a silky texture.

It blended perfectly with the caramel’s sweetness, bringing out a hint of milk fragrance and the richness of eggs, making every bite an enjoyment, immersing them in this wonderful taste experience.

This caramel pudding was not only delicious but also had a very rich texture, from the rich flavor of the cocoa powder on top to the caramel crisp shell, then to the soft middle pudding, and occasionally a slight solidification at the bottom, each layer had its unique texture, achieving this culinary delight’s layering.

In short, its sweetness, delicacy, and rich texture made them intoxicated.

Relying on the deliciousness of the caramel pudding, the teachers also suddenly felt a boost of energy, feeling completely rejuvenated...

"This caramel pudding is really good, even better than the caramel pudding I queued for two hours during the National Day holiday!"

"Yes, indeed, it’s really delicious. This is definitely the best caramel pudding I’ve ever had."

"Chef Huang’s skills are top-notch... It feels like his culinary skills have even improved in the days we haven’t seen, even better than the desserts he made before."

"I’m already looking forward to his next lunch!"

"You’re the typical ’thinking about the next meal while eating this one’..."

"None of your business, bite me if you don’t agree..."
