Su Zihan sent a screenshot of the stocks she'd posted to Moments earlier that day to the group.
Su Kexin: "Whoa, whoa, big sis, I've been meaning to ask—how did you get so much allowance?"
"Mom said, 'Give me 1,000 yuan,' so give it to me?"
"Don't worry, I haven't told Mom you have over 50,000 yuan in allowance invested in stocks."
"I'm still pretty cute, right?"
"Shouldn't you give your adorable fifth sister a little more allowance? Like, say, 1,500 yuan~~~"
Su Zihan: "50,000 yuan of that money came from Dad today, for all five of us. The rest is our living expenses."
"I don't mind giving you 1,500 yuan, but you have to spend it carefully."
Su Kexin: "Whoa! Dad's so generous—he gave all five of us 50,000 yuan in one go! Does that mean I get 10,000?"
"Big sis, send me 5,000 yuan."
Su Youyu: "Whoa! That's so much money! I get some too~"
"Big sis, I don't want 5,000. 3,000 is enough~ I want to eat roast duck, roast duck~~"
Su Yutong: "Boss, I happen to need a new surgical knife, plus some specialist books and articles, and a laptop. I don't want 10,000. How about 9,999 yuan?"
Su Zihan: "...!!!"
Su Zihan: "This money came from Dad for all five of us. Every last cent has to be put to good use."
"@Su Kexin, 1,500 yuan is enough for you."
"@Su Youyu, 500 yuan is plenty for roast duck!"
"@Su Yutong, you just bought a new surgical knife last month. For specialist articles, use your library points; you don't need to spend money! And a 4,999-yuan laptop will do. Pick one out and send me the link and address, and I'll buy it for you."
Su Yinuo, who'd been quietly lurking, was astonished.
She hadn't expected that the handsome dad she'd seen today
would give all five of them 50,000 yuan in allowance!
Wasn't that ridiculously generous?
And after she got back, she'd looked up the car Dad had driven today. It turned out to be a Toyota Alphard, a minivan with an on-the-road price of 1.5 million yuan!!!
The internet said it was the standard car for the rich and celebrities!
Her dad was loaded!
Thinking about the embarrassing misunderstanding between her and Dad today, she gave her cheek a little punch with her pink fist.
Dad must have gotten a terrible impression of her, right?
!!!
Her sisters were all asking big sis for allowance, and she wasn't about to fall behind.
Besides, this was their sisters' group. Dad had no idea she was asking for allowance~
Su Yinuo: "@Su Zihan, big sis, my nickname is Surgical Knife. Send all the money to me."
Su Kexin: "Pfft... Second sis, you're a genius."
"Big sis, my nickname is Surgical Knife too."
Su Youyu: "Same here +1!"
Su Yutong: "Same here +2!"
Su Zihan: "..."
Her sisters were mischievous, but seeing that they were all willing to spend Dad's allowance
made her feel like it wouldn't be long before she brought all four of them over to her side.
The future looked bright~~
She sent another picture: "(Image)"
It was a picture of the three dishes and soup Su Chen had cooked himself that evening.
Su Youyu was the first to leap in: "Ahhh! What am I looking at? Stir-fried yellow beef with chopped chilies! Hot and sour pan-fried fish! Egg fried tofu!!"
"I can smell the deliciousness through the screen!"
"Big sis, you're so mean! You're posting food porn in the middle of the night. I'm calling the police! Calling the police!"
"My mouth's watering. I'm hungry."
"I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight."
Seeing the little foodie's reaction, Su Zihan was very pleased. "Dad made all this for me tonight. He sliced every piece of yellow beef so thin, and the meat was so tender. Add in the chopped chilies, and it was a feast for the taste buds!"
"And the hot and sour pan-fried fish—the skin was crispy, the flesh tender, and the slightly browned bits were especially delicious. With the pickled vegetables, it had such a unique flavor."
Before Su Zihan could finish, the group chat was flooded with messages.
Su Youyu: "Big sis, stop! You're making me crave it! You know how bland everything I've eaten these past few days has been? My mouth's practically sprouting feathers from how bland it is. I've been waiting for finals to end so I can go home and eat Mom's cooking."
Su Kexin: "Big sis, if I'd known Dad's cooking was so good, I definitely wouldn't have left tonight. I would've stayed to mooch a meal and fill my belly first, nom nom~ I won't be back for a whole week~"
Su Yutong: "Boss, you don't have class until second period tomorrow. I want an order of Stir-fried Yellow Beef. Bring me some."
Watching the screen, Su Yinuo couldn't help swallowing.
She hadn't expected Dad's cooking to be so delicious!
She hadn't even tasted it, but just looking at the dishes told her the meal had to be amazing!
She wanted to go see Dad!
She absolutely would not admit that she wanted to mooch a meal!
But meeting Dad today had been so awkward. She'd better wait a few days before seeing him again.
Back to lurking.
Su Zihan was on her phone, looking at how interested her three sisters were in Dad's cooking,
when she heard a sound from the living room.
She hopped off the bed and padded to the living room in her fluffy bunny slippers, where Su Chen had just come out of the bathroom after showering, drying his hair.
Her beautiful eyes gleaming with excitement, she said, "Dad, the Stir-fried Yellow Beef you made tonight was so good. Could you make extra tomorrow morning? Do we have any yellow beef left at home?"
They said that to win a man's heart, you first had to win his stomach.
The same was true for women.
All five of them were foodies.
They'd talk about losing weight while clamoring for delicious food.
You could scold me or bully me, but if you took my food, I'd fight you to the death~~~
As he dried his hair, Su Chen smiled and said, "If you like it, I'll make extra tomorrow morning. We still have two jin of yellow beef at home."
"Okay, Dad. I'll take it to my sisters. They haven't had such authentic southern food in ages. It'll be a nice treat for them," Su Zihan said cutely.
"If it's for your sisters, then I'll go buy more ingredients tomorrow morning, and some insulated lunch boxes too." Su Chen was suddenly brimming with energy.
He'd always wanted to meet his other four daughters.
But he knew he couldn't rush things.
If he did, he'd make mistakes.
After all, he'd been absent from his daughters' lives for the past eighteen years.
He wasn't sure whether his other four daughters would want to meet him, or accept him as their dad.
Still, he'd win them over with his sincerity and care, until they accepted him and called him Dad~~
He couldn't wait to meet his other four daughters~
"Okay, Dad~~ Make what you cooked tonight, just three extra portions. Third sis went to the neighboring province to do some painting, so she isn't in the Imperial Capital."
"Sure. I'll go buy the ingredients tomorrow morning."
"Okay, Dad~~"
After drying his hair, Su Chen casually tossed the towel over the back of a nearby chair. Then he patted the little girl's shoulder affectionately and said, "Hanhan, it's ten o'clock. You should get to bed."
"Mm-hmm~~ Good night, Dad~"
"Good night~"
Su Chen watched his daughter bounce happily into her room. In his mind, he pictured all five of his daughters hopping into their rooms together.
It would be such a lively sight~
