Chapter 554: Chapter 540: Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao Appears!

Two in the afternoon.

Huang Tao and his parents packed up and loaded various New Year supplies into the trunk, then each drove their cars onto the road home.

You know!

The road was crowded with vehicles, making it particularly congested.

So, careful driving was a must.

After all, he wasn’t alone. His precious daughter was also in the car!

As for Mimi in the car...

It naturally couldn’t be counted as a person...

While his dad, a novice driver, was following behind his car.

Plus, his mom was in his car too!

So, safety came first!

Huang Tao glanced at the rearview mirror inside the car.

Xuanxuan was leaning in the car seat, her little head tilted, sleeping sweetly, with a trace of glistening drool at the corner of her mouth.

The little one was a bit of a sleepyhead. Coupled with the strong vibrations on the back seat, she fell asleep unknowingly shortly after getting in the car.

Luckily, Huang Tao had foresight. Fearing she might fall asleep in the car, he covered her little tummy with a slightly thick small blanket right after she got in the car.

At that time, the little girl pouted, looking quite reluctant!

She even swore she wouldn’t fall asleep in the car!

But look at what happened...

She fell asleep shortly after getting in the car!

Fortunately, even though she was initially unwilling, she obediently covered herself with the blanket, otherwise, she would’ve definitely caught a cold sleeping like that.

Although the car was heated and quite warm, it was still winter after all!

Sleeping while curled up was an easy way to catch a cold!

Watching his beloved treasure sleeping soundly, Huang Tao couldn’t help but smile tenderly.

Fifty minutes later, he exited the highway and entered a narrow road.

"Daddy~"

At this moment, Xuanxuan suddenly woke up, rubbing her eyes, and asked drowsily, "Where are we now?"

Huang Tao smiled and said, "We’ve left the highway. In about ten minutes, we should be home."

"Oh~"

Xuanxuan peeked out the window, and upon seeing familiar buildings, she smiled with her eyes curved and said to Mimi beside her, "Mimi, look, just around this bend, and keep going straight, straight, straight, and we’ll be at Grandpa and Grandma’s house."

"Meow~"

Resting lazily on the back seat, Mimi raised its head upon hearing the call from the little master, responding with a meow.

It seemed to say: Yes, yes, little master, I know that!

Xuanxuan put her small hand on the car window, tilted her little head, and looked back through the window, wanting to see if Grandpa’s car was still following behind Daddy’s car.

That’s right!

The little one was afraid Grandpa would get lost!

But alas...

The window blocked her view, and with that being a blind spot, the little one couldn’t see what was happening behind!

Now.

Little Xuanxuan felt so helpless!

Bingo!

Got it!

Her pretty eyes twinkled as she came up with an idea to look through the rear window.

But she was helplessly trapped by the safety belt in the car seat, so she couldn’t get up to see.

Alright!

Now completely out of options.

"Daddy~"

She looked to her father for help and asked, "Is Grandpa and Grandma still behind us? They didn’t get lost, right?"

Huang Tao chuckled softly while looking at the rearview mirror, confirming, and said, "Don’t worry, Grandpa and Grandma are still behind us!"

"Even if they got lost, they know the way home, so don’t worry about it. Just sit tight."

"Oh right! Grandpa and Grandma know the way to their own home."

With that thought, Xuanxuan was completely at ease, sitting obediently.

"Xuanxuan, if you’re thirsty or hungry, there’s food and drink in the bag next to you, just take it yourself."

"Mm-hmm~"

Xuanxuan was indeed a bit thirsty; she hadn’t drunk water since morning, only had a little drink at Mr. Li’s house around noon.

She reached for the children’s thermos in the bag, pressed the button on the lid, opened it, and holding the water cup, drank through the straw with a strong gulp.

Drinking freely.

Mimi looked up at her pleadingly, meowing softly while reaching out its little paw to rest on Xuanxuan’s arm.

Is this the rhythm of wanting to drink?

Feeling it, Xuanxuan paused, reached to stroke its head, and asked, "Mimi, are you thirsty too?"

Mimi leaned its head towards the water cup, and Xuanxuan quickly pulled it away, saying, "This is my drink. If you want some, I’ll pour you some separately."

"But how can I pour it for you? You don’t have a water bowl." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Xuanxuan was troubled!

Looking at Mimi helplessly.

"Why don’t you open your big mouth, and I’ll drip some from the bottle for you?"

Mimi seemed to understand, lifting its head and opening its mouth wide.

Xuanxuan exerted herself to lift the bottle, attempting to let water drip from the straw into Mimi’s mouth.

After all, she was too little to twist the bottle open, so she could only feed Mimi water this way.

Poor Mimi, opening its mouth wide for a long time to catch a few droplets of water.

This exhausted the cat!

This water, forget about it!

With that energy, might as well nap a bit more.

If I sleep, I won’t be thirsty!

It gave a "meow" and then curled up lazily again.

Luckily, Xuanxuan got the hint, quickly righted the bottle, preventing water from dripping onto the seat.

She said helplessly, "Mimi, you’re so naughty..."

Huang Tao glanced at the rearview mirror again, seeing that scene, and reminded, "Xuanxuan, let’s give Mimi water when we get home. It’s not convenient now in the car."

"Mm-hmm~"

Xuanxuan nodded obediently, closed the water bottle, and put it back in the bag.

Not long afterward.

Huang Tao’s car drove onto the village road of Huang Family Village.

Arriving at the doorstep.

He parked the car in an empty space in front of the house.

And the Fourth Aunt, who was washing by the water trough next door, saw Huang Tao getting off the car and greeted with a smile, "Yo, Tao is back."

"Hey, I’m back."

Huang Tao responded with a smile, "Auntie, you’re busy!"

Xuanxuan obediently greeted Fourth Aunt, "Hello Great Aunt!"

"Good, good, what a sweet child..."

The corners of Fourth Aunt’s mouth curved into a gentle smile, and not seeing Huang Tao’s parents get out of the car, she curiously asked, "Tao, where are your parents? Why don’t I see them?"

"Oh, my dad is in the back and should be here any moment."

Speak of the devil!

Beep beep~

Huang Yide slowly parked the Mercedes behind Huang Tao’s car, and he and Song Cailian unbuckled their seat belts and got out of the car together.

Upon seeing Fourth Aunt, the old couple greeted her in unison, "Fourth Aunt."

"Yide!"

"Cailian!"

Fourth Aunt’s eyes widened; she wiped her eyelids vigorously in disbelief.

No mistake!

Seeing Huang Yide drive back in a Mercedes shocked her to the point of disbelief.

Even though Fourth Aunt didn’t know much about cars, she could recognize a BMW or a Mercedes!

Huang Yide and Song Cailian laughed together and said, "It’s us."

Fourth Aunt curiously asked, admiringly looking over the Mercedes Huang Yide drove back, "Yide, did you buy this car?"

Huang Yide said with a laugh, "No, Tao bought it for me."

"Oh, Tao bought it!"

Fourth Aunt gave Huang Tao a thumbs up and remarked, "Tao is truly filial and accomplished, even buying a Mercedes for his old man!"

In fact, cars were not a rare sight in Huang Family Village, most families had one.

BMWs and Mercedes were not uncommon either.

But a son buying a Mercedes for his father, that’s unique to Huang Tao!

No denying it, Huang Tao is really a filial child!

Look through the whole village, and you won’t find a second like him.

Fourth Aunt admired how blessed Huang Yide and his wife were with such a filial and successful son!

Other neighbors who heard also displayed envious expressions.
