12:30 PM.

Ling hummed a song, happily pushing open the front door of her home, only to see her husband, Lin Zhihua, eagerly put down his newspaper, rushing over with excitement to ask, "Honey, you’re back?"

He then quickly took the three bags of takeout boxes, a carton of milk, and some snacks from her hands: "Did you get the Coconut Milk Boba Ice Smoothie?"

"With your wife handling it, are you still worried?"

Ling wore a proud expression and began to explain to her husband: "Let me tell you, I didn’t even shop around the street, just went straight to line up at the Delicious Restaurant to buy..."

The reason she gave up her love for shopping and hurried to the Delicious Restaurant to pack meals was because her husband sent her a screenshot at around 10 AM. It was from the Delicious official Weibo account.

Upon seeing the text, she realized that the new Coconut Milk Boba Ice Smoothie she was longing for was being launched at noon today.

Thinking about the things from the Delicious Restaurant, they might be hard to buy if not purchased early.

So...

She skipped the shopping, went straight to the Delicious Restaurant, and sent a message to her husband, Lin Zhihua, telling him not to cook for lunch.

Lin Zhihua, instantly understanding, replied with a "Received" emoji, then shared this good news with their daughter, Lin Yuru.

At this moment, Lin Yuru, who was in her room working on practice problems, came out upon hearing the noise, her eyes bright as she asked, "Mom, I heard from Dad that we’re having food from the Delicious Restaurant for lunch, right?"

"Yes, and there’s also Coconut Milk Boba Ice Smoothie to drink. Yuru, why don’t you go wash your hands first?"

Lin Zhihua replied with a smile, turning to Ling and said, "Honey, you too."

While the mother and daughter went to wash their hands, Lin Zhihua quickly placed the milk and snack bags aside, brought the takeout bags to the dining table, and laid out the takeout boxes and drinks.

Time to eat.

Ling was the first to insert a straw into the Coconut Milk Boba Ice Smoothie cup.

Earlier, while queuing to buy food at the Delicious Restaurant, she saw many customers taking away their orders, sipping the Coconut Milk Boba Ice Smoothie as they walked.

The overall appearance of the Coconut Milk Boba Ice Smoothie looked beautiful. Listening to everyone exclaim how good it was, she was completely tempted.

Now the Coconut Milk Boba Ice Smoothie was still cold, and she took a sip.

The dense ice smoothie rushed down her throat through the straw, the coldness refreshingly comforting. The coconut milk tasted particularly fragrant and silky, and the boba was even softer and more bouncy.

It tasted particularly clean and healthy, naturally sweet, unlike the industrial sugary taste mixed with substances from ordinary milk tea shops.

That’s exactly why.

Ling was willing to bring back a cup for her daughter to try.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t dare let Lin Yuru drink these close to the exams.

She took another two sips, and just like that, the heat from carrying things upstairs dissipated, leaving her feeling much fresher and much more cheerful.

She smiled and called to her daughter, "Yuru, try this Coconut Milk Boba Ice Smoothie, it’s really good."

She noticed her daughter had already taken several bites of the Shredded Eel in Garlic Sauce and some rice.

"Okay, this Shredded Eel in Garlic Sauce is really delicious."

Lin Yuru sighed, picking up her cup of Coconut Milk Boba Ice Smoothie, inserted the straw, and drank expectantly.

Icy and cool, with a smooth and dense texture, the rich milk flavor didn’t overshadow the refreshing and unique sweetness of the coconut juice. Then, with another big sip, a couple of boba pearls entered her mouth.

She bit down casually...

Chewy, soft and sticky but not overly resilient or sticky on the teeth.

She couldn’t help but take another couple of large sips, filling her mouth with ice, refreshing her entire body, and clearing her mind, which had been somewhat muddled from studying.

She smiled and said, "This is really nice, this sweetness is just perfect, I quite like it."

Seeing her daughter’s approval, Ling felt delighted and said with a smile, "As long as you like it. I heard from the clerk that this Coconut Milk Boba Ice Smoothie uses real ingredients without too much sugar or condensed milk; it’s all coconut juice and milk, very pure, so you can drink worry-free! If you like it, just let me know any time you want another, and Mom will pack one for you."

"Okay,"

Lin Yuru nodded sweetly and said sincerely, "Thank you, Mom, you’re the best..."

Lately, while she was staying at school, her mom bought food from Delicious every Wednesday and Friday and delivered it to her at school.

The food was all dishes she loved, and she didn’t have to squeeze into the cafeteria, which put her in a good mood and helped her study better, forming a positive cycle.

Her recent exam results in all subjects have been top-notch!

Having family meals and chatting like this was a rare moment of relaxation after intense studying for her!

For Ling and her husband, it was also a kind of companionship!

Hearing his daughter and wife’s words, Lin Zhihua smiled contentedly, put down his chopsticks, and picked up the Coconut Milk Boba Ice Smoothie to try it.

It wasn’t as sweet as he imagined; rather, the pure taste of coconut juice and fragrant milk was very refreshing.

He closed his eyes, savoring it, and then took several more sips, exclaiming, "Refreshing!"

During lunch breaks at work, he often saw young female colleagues always carrying a cup of black sugar pearl milk tea, seemingly enjoying it immensely.

Back then, he didn’t quite understand why people liked those starchy pearls.

He preferred drinking alcohol over beverages, and so didn’t enjoy these. Occasionally, his daughter or wife would let him taste their milk tea.

But they were too sickly sweet!

He never could grow fond of them. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

But ever since his wife brought back a cup of Delicious’s Green Mung Bean Milk a few days ago, and he had a sip, it blew his mind.

Since then, he fell in love with these naturally sweet drinks.

Close to noon that day, he accidentally came across the Delicious official Weibo’s new product release while scrolling Weibo, and knowing how delicious the Green Mung Bean Milk was, he thought this Coconut Milk Boba Ice Smoothie must also be good.

He couldn’t help but screenshot it and send it to his wife.

Fortunately, his wife was also eager to try this new drink, which allowed him to taste it first-hand.

One has to admit, the offerings from the Delicious store indeed lived up to expectations.

After lunch, after tidying up and a short nap, it was time for Lin Yuru to return to school.

This also meant that her New Year’s holiday was about to end!

Before leaving,

Ling prepared some snacks and a carton of milk for her with a smile, saying, "I heard from my coworker that Sichun pure milk is really good; it’s what Delicious’s Green Mung Bean Milk is made of. The ingredients are pure cow milk, very healthy and nutritious. When I bought the meal, I stopped by the convenience store next door to get a carton, and these snacks too, take them along in case you’re hungry during evening self-study."

Upon hearing that this milk was the raw material for the Green Mung Bean Milk, Lin Yuru couldn’t help but recall that rich milky aroma.

She felt a bit tempted!

She nodded in agreement, saying, "Okay then, I’ll take a carton back and drink a pack a day."

"Alright."

Ling held her daughter’s hand, gently patting it, and advised her with concern, "Also, with the exams approaching, these days are crucial, Yuru, remember your health is most important. You can ease up a bit on your studies, don’t put too much pressure on yourself."

With a cheeky smile, Lin Yuru replied, "Don’t worry, Mom, I’ll keep a good study pace. I’ve got a good grasp of the class material, so don’t worry."

Knowing her daughter’s personality, Ling was finally relieved hearing this.

They all then accompanied Lin Yuru to the car.
