Su Chen understood as soon as he saw Yan Bingxue's expression.
Their marriage had been a bit sudden, so where they should live was now the biggest question.
"Why don't we let the kids decide?" Yan Bingxue said.
Su Chen nodded, then turned to ask Tuantuan and Lele, "Tuantuan, Lele, do you want to go to Daddy's house tonight, or go back to Mommy's house?"
Tuantuan said without hesitation, "Tuantuan wants to go to Daddy's house! I want to bring Mommy and brother too~"
"Tuantuan hasn't been to Daddy's house yet! Tuantuan wants to go~"
Lele didn't say anything, but his big eyes looked at Su Chen, filled with a hint of curiosity and anticipation.
It seemed he also really wanted to see his father's house~
Yan Bingxue immediately compromised when she heard this, "Okay, then we'll go to your place."
"En!" Su Chen readily agreed.
He had been looking for a job, and his studies at school were finished. He had to move out of the dorm soon, so he simply rented a two-bedroom apartment off-campus. The apartment was 90 square meters, so it was perfectly fine for Yan Bingxue and the two children to live there.
It's just... he was a single man and usually lived alone, so his place was a bit messy!
He hadn't known so many things would happen today before he left, so he hadn't cleaned up in advance.
But this was the first time the children's mother and the two little ones were going to his place, and Su Chen didn't want them to see trash everywhere, or indecent socks piled up all over the place!
Su Chen thought for a moment and said, "It's too late today, let's eat out before we go home~"
After getting their agreement, Su Chen quickly sent a message to the cleaning lady who had cleaned his apartment last time, asking her to hurry up and clean the house.
The auntie was Su Chen's school's dorm manager and also did some part-time cleaning work outside.
After Su Chen moved out, his roommates would occasionally have parties, and sometimes it got too messy. The few guys were too lazy to clean up, so they just paid the familiar dorm manager auntie to clean it.
The auntie was very familiar with Su Chen and immediately replied when she saw the message: "Little Su, cleaning in such a hurry? Are you planning to bring your girlfriend home tonight?"
"En! Auntie, I'll leave the house to you. We'll be back in an hour."
"Don't worry~ Auntie will definitely clean it up for you! I hope you have a pleasant evening tonight, haha~"
Su Chen chuckled when he saw this.
Tonight was the first time he was bringing the children's mother and the children home, so of course, it would be extra pleasant!
Su Chen's apartment was rented near the university. He was very familiar with this area. Since they were already here, he took the initiative to choose a barbecue place with a really good taste and drove over.
Seeing the lively night market, Yan Bingxue seemed to be taken aback.
Tuantuan and Lele, who were leaning against the car window, also looked a bit lost.
Tuantuan, cute and curious, leaned there and said, leaving a small patch of white mist on the car window, "Daddy~ Where is this?"
"This is the most famous snack street in the university town! There are so many things here. There's a barbecue place with amazing taste inside. Dad will take you to eat, okay?"
Barbecue? Street food?
Yan Bingxue swallowed. It wasn't because she was craving food, but rather, she had never eaten in such a... lively place before!
Tuantuan didn't seem to care what they were eating for dinner. As long as she was with Daddy, she was happy~
"Okay, okay~ Let's go eat barbecue~"
The little one was eager to get out of her car seat, "Daddy, hug Tuantuan~ Tuantuan wants to eat grilled meat~"
Lele slightly furrowed his small brows and reminded, "Barbecue is unhealthy, it's bad for your body. And there are too many people here, cooking by the roadside, the hygiene environment cannot be guaranteed."
"Eating food like this will make your stomach uncomfortable."
The little guy said very seriously, acting like a little adult with his proper demeanor.
Although he was only three years old, he read a lot and knew a lot. And his mommy had never brought them to eat at such street stalls!
Su Chen stretched out his long arm, intending to pat his son's head, but the little guy dodged it.
He smiled indifferently and said, "Lele, a true man, how can your stomach be so fragile?"
"Restaurants can make delicious food, and so can street stalls. It's all made by chefs. I think barbecue depends on the taste, not its environment or location!"
"Don't worry, the barbecue I'm taking you to will definitely be safe and hygienic, and the taste will be super good!"
"I guarantee you'll want to eat it a second time after eating it once!"
Lele still frowned, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at the crowded snack street outside.
Yan Bingxue looked at Su Chen's profile, and as if she had suddenly made up her mind, she squeezed her small fist on one side and said, "Okay, then let's go eat barbecue!"
Su Chen was a little surprised by her decisiveness.
A CEO like Yan Bingxue probably hadn't eaten at such street stalls before, right?
However, Su Chen was confident in his taste. The barbecue place he chose would definitely not be worse than high-end restaurants!
"En! Trust me, the taste here will definitely not disappoint you!"
They got out of the car together. Tuantuan immediately clamored and ran down. Lele was still a bit resistant, but since his mommy had already gone, he could only follow.
The lively outdoor stalls, the hot grills, the sizzling skewers of meat, the fragrant barbecue seasoning... This place was almost full, both inside and outside.
Su Chen found a quiet spot to sit. He used a paper towel to wipe down the table and stools before letting Yan Bingxue, Tuantuan, and Lele sit down.
This thoughtful and considerate gesture made the corners of Yan Bingxue's mouth lift slightly.
Despite the crowd in the shop, the chef's hands were quick, and the food came out fast. Three large plates of fragrant barbecue, with both meat and vegetables, and a full selection of seafood and fish, were perfectly cooked – crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sprinkled with cumin and sesame seeds, emitting an enticing aroma.
Tuantuan couldn't wait and started eating.
Su Chen saw her pick up a very large skewer of meat and, afraid she might hurt herself on the skewer, quickly took it from her.
"Tuantuan, Daddy will get it into your bowl for you to eat~"
"Mhm mhm~ Thank you, Daddy~"
Su Chen gave his daughter a gentle, doting smile, then put all the meat into the bowl and pushed it in front of Tuantuan.
"Tuantuan, blow on it before you eat, be careful it's hot~"
Lele remained still, and Yan Bingxue seemed to still be mentally preparing herself.
Su Chen picked up a fragrant lamb skewer, turned to Yan Bingxue, and said, "Try this, it's really good!"
Yan Bingxue was taken aback. Although the skewer in Su Chen's hand looked appealing, she couldn't help but hesitate when she remembered it was from a roadside barbecue stall.
But Su Chen's gaze was so sincere; he really wanted her to try
