Lu Qin got up.
Whether it was habit or the system's Fatigue Elimination Aura, Lu Qin was always in excellent spirits when he woke up early. He had no desire to sleep in at all.

"Papa~! You're up so early~?"
The little one was still bleary-eyed, her soul seemingly still trapped in a dream.
"Papa slept very well yesterday. Once I woke up, I couldn't fall back asleep. I'm going to the market to buy ingredients, then prepare our breakfast and get ready for the morning stall."

Her soft, smooth little cheek rubbed against Lu Qin's face.
"Papa~! This is so tiring for you~! Yao Yao will feel bad for you~!"

"Really~?"
"Mm."
"Why did Yao Yao wake up so early?"
