<h4>Chapter 264: Chapter 265: The Happiest Breakfast</h4><h4></h4>
Having cleaned the eggs, Huangfu Jue ced the te aside, wiped his fingers, and pulled her in front of him to untie the apron around her body.
"Come out with me!"
He picked up the te with the burnt eggs and strode out of the kitchen, pulling her along and casting an authoritative nce over everyone.
They were lucky she hadn’t gotten hurt; otherwise, they would have been in trouble!
Intimidated by his authority, everyone timidly looked down.
"What are you standing around for?" Will hurriedly spoke up, "Go prepare breakfast now!"
The kitchen maids snapped to their senses and scurried back into the kitchen.
Having settled Gan Yuan by the table, Huangfu Jue took his ce with the te in hand.
"I’m in a rush, so I won’t wait for you all."
He unfolded his napkin over his knees, reached for the knife and fork, and elegantly began to cut into the burnt egg on his te. Watching him slice, fork, and bring a piece of the burnt egg to his lips, Gan Yuan finally reacted, hastily stretching out her hand to grab his fingers.
"You’re crazy!"
The egg was burnt and had even fallen on the floor; how could it be edible?
"I like them a bit burnt." The man said with an indulgent smile, lifting the egg to his mouth and chewing, "Mmm... the taste is very... unique!"
Gan Yuan had indeed added quite a few seasonings to make the burnt egg more ptable, so the taste was, naturally, very unique—awful.
Beyond "unique," he couldn’t think of any other adjective.
Across from him, Gan Tang had already started sniffing.
"Mommy, did you add cinnamon powder?"
Gan Yuan forced augh.
"Just a little bit."
The little guy sniffed again, "Why do I also smell cumin?"
Gan Yuan nced at her son sideways, "Because I wanted to make it barbecue-vored!"
Pfft!
The little guy couldn’t help butugh, looking sympathetically at Huangfu Jue; having to eat such a "special" burnt egg was no easy feat when dating his mommy!
Gan Yuan gave him a re and frowned at Huangfu Jue, who was focused on eating the egg.
"It’s so bad, just throw it away!"
"It’s not as serious as you think," Huangfu Jue said with a smile, "Considering it’s your first time, you did really well."
Gan Yuan’s hands hastily pushed a ss of milk towards him, "Drink some milk instead, don’t eat that egg."
The man caught the ss of milk and casually took her hand as well.
"This is the happiest breakfast I’ve ever had!"
The little one unreservedly scoffed, "Uncle Huangfu, you’re so cheesy!"
"Shut up!" Gan Yuan red at her son, then turned her gaze back to Huangfu Jue, who was eating the egg, "Remember, you need to be extra careful when you leave this time."
"Okay."
Huangfu Jue finished the milk inrge gulps, stood up from the table, and ruffled the little guy’s hair. He stood beside Gan Yuan, bent down, and kissed her lips.
"Wait for me to return."
"I’ll see you out."
He put his hand on her shoulder to stop her and epted the breakfast served by the maid, patting Gan Yuan’s shoulder affectionately.
"Have a good meal, ande to pick me up when I get back."
"Okay."
She smiled in agreement.
In truth, she didn’t like farewells either; they were indeed saddening.
"Goodbye, Uncle Huangfu," Gan Tang politely bid him farewell.
Nodding at him, Huangfu Jue strode out of the dining room. Since he had gotten upte that morning and needed to catch up on his schedule, he had to move quickly.
If it weren’t for Gan Yuan cooking herself, he definitely wouldn’t have had breakfast at home.
Sitting in the back seat of the car, he looked sideways at the receding main building, feeling for the first time a poignant sense of attachment stirring in his heart.
