Chapter 106 It's too late, you can cry tomorrow!
Lu Junxing was worried that it would get chilly at night, and the kitchen was drafty, so he relit the stove to prevent her from catching a fever or cold on the island.
"Daddy~, my butt? Is my butt getting cooked?"
An'an felt a burning sensation on her bottom and quickly stood up. Her feet were burning, so she rushed into the man's arms, crying, "Waaah~, Daddy~, is my bottom still there?"
"Waaah~, if it gets really cooked, you can eat my butt!"
Lu Junxing quickly rinsed her off, wrapped her up, and patted her bottom impatiently: "Is your bottom still there?"
"Hehe~, it's still there? My poor little bottom~"
During the meal, Shen Yu noticed that An An kept touching her bottom, so he kept wiping her hands. Finally, he couldn't help but say, "An An~, you...you shouldn't keep touching your bottom while eating! That's not good!"
"Look at you, you touched my butt...and then you picked up some corn. Isn't that inappropriate?"
"It's okay, no one put their hand inside to touch you, and why should your butt be disgusted by it?"
An'an munched on corn, watching her brother Shen Yu wipe her other hand, and waved her hand dismissively.
Lu Junxing then realized what she had been doing while eating. He took her dried fish and broke it in half right in front of her, saying, "If you don't behave while eating, this is your butt!"
"You burned someone's butt off, and now you're going to beat her to pieces~ Waaah~"
An'an used the corn in her hand to wipe her tears, but when she realized the corn didn't absorb water, she ran over and threw herself into the man's arms to wipe her tears clean.
Shen Shaocheng then understood why Lu Junxing had told him to put out the fire when Shen Yu was washing: "Hahaha~"
After the meal, Lu Junxing went to the village to fetch a bucket of water and tidied everything up. Seeing that the troublesome girl's hair was still wet, he realized they didn't have a hairdryer.
He found another towel and helped her dry off, but her hair just stood there in a fuzzy mess. Feeling guilty, the man tried to comb it, but couldn't quite manage it, so he just left it at that, thinking a good night's sleep would fix it.
"Daddy, I want to go out and play?"
"What are you thinking about? You don't want to!"
Lu Junxing found a black tracksuit and hung it on the window, intending to use it as a makeshift curtain: "Your hair will scare people to death if you go out like that!"
An'an took out the small mirror that Duo Duo had given her, glanced at herself, and said, "Waaah~, um..."
The man quickly pinched her mouth shut. This dilapidated house—he'd be lucky if it didn't collapse in the next few days; the soundproofing was definitely nonexistent. "Don't make a sound! It's too late. You can cry tomorrow!"
Seeing her nod, he released her, applied some medicated oil to her hands and feet, and pulled up the sleeping bag: "Close your eyes! Go to sleep!"
The next morning at 6:30, the production crew came over and was about to knock on the door when they found that Lu Junxing was already awake. Xie Han quickly handed him the task card.
"Mr. Lu! The children need to pick up your breakfast from where we had lunch yesterday. Is An'an awake yet? First come, first served!"
Lu Junxing, clutching the task card, asked, "Do we really have to eat the production team's breakfast?"
"Uh...yes!"
Xie Han thought about this loophole and cursed Director Jiang Yun in her heart. Why did he have to leave a loophole, and of all people, she was the one who encountered it?
She only left relieved after seeing the man turn to wake An'an; another day of keeping her job.
"Get up! Go grab some food! Otherwise, you won't get any!"
Hearing this while leaning on the man's shoulder, An'an immediately woke up: "What? My food!"
"Dad! Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
An'an quickly stretched out her hand, begging the man to give her her clothes; she wanted to go grab some food! Lu Junxing helped her get dressed, and after she put on her shoes, he saw her about to rush out.
He quickly grabbed her: "Brush your teeth and wash your face first!"
"Dad! Can't you be a little more understanding? People are really worried!"
An'an worried that if she brushed her teeth and washed her face, someone would take all the delicious food, but she couldn't resist her man's insistence and was so anxious she jumped up and down.
She brushed her teeth briefly, finishing in less than three seconds, then wet her little hands, wiped her face, and rushed out, ignoring her father's astonished expression.
An'an lives neither too far nor too close to Daping, but it's easy to find; there's only one straight road, which is why An'an was able to rush there with all her might.
"Hmph ha~, ha~"
An'an stood in front of the long table, panting heavily. Jiang Yun, startled, came over to pat her on the back and said, "Why did you run so fast? Shut your mouth and take a deep breath!"
"No... Ha~, didn't you tell me to come and steal food?"
"Um...yes, yes, but it's still early!"
Jiang Yun glanced at his watch; it was 6:45. He had thought the kids would be tired from yesterday and sleep in, so he had gone to wake them up earlier. But instead, they were all very eager to get back to work.
"The early bird catches the worm!"
Jiang Yun handed her an insulated container and a biodegradable bag: "Come on, An'an~, see which one you like to eat? I'll hold the bag open for you, and you can put it in!"
Looking at the steamed buns, fried dough sticks, noodles, lean meat porridge, steamed bread, corn, and sesame seed cakes on the table, An'an felt she wanted it all, and she really did want it all.
"Didn't you say you'd give me anything I wanted?"
Seeing An'an staring at him with a puzzled look, Jiang Yun wanted to slap himself for being so talkative!
She took them all. On the one hand, there wasn't enough food for everyone else. On the other hand, Lu Junxing and the others wouldn't have to cook lunch, so how could he issue missions?
"Hey! An'an~, you ate too much this morning. What if there's something even better for lunch and you can't eat it?"
As Jiang Yun spoke, she secretly took out the corn, steamed buns, and sesame seed cakes from the bag under the table: "Can we skip the noodles? I saw your dad brought two bundles of noodles!"
"No, these noodles don't look like the ones my dad makes. Let someone try them!"
