Lin Yi picked him up from the bed, tidied his messy hair, and said, "Baby, are you hungry? I heard there's afternoon tea around this time. Shall we go have some?"
Huo Mianmian nodded and patted his little belly.
He was indeed a bit hungry.
Soon, after Lin Yi tidied up for Huo Mianmian, they were about to head to the restaurant for afternoon tea.
But before leaving, he still asked Huo Jihan, "Mr. Huo, do you want anything to eat? I can bring it back for you."
Huo Jihan replied in a calm voice, "No need."
Lin Yi rarely saw Huo Jihan eating outside of regular meals, so he nodded, "Alright."
Then he took Huo Mianmian to the restaurant.
The consumption at this villa was high, and naturally, the services were exceptionally attentive.
Every afternoon, before dinner, the restaurant would offer some pastries and fruits as afternoon tea. Late at night, there would be snacks, ensuring that every customer could have something to eat whenever they wanted.
When Lin Yi brought Huo Mianmian to the restaurant, there were already some people inside eating.
Lin Yi took a large plate and led Huo Mianmian to an empty table, instructing him, "Mianmian, wait here for me. I'll bring you something delicious soon."
Huo Mianmian obediently sat down and nodded.
After settling Huo Mianmian, Lin Yi started picking food with the plate.
He first picked some sushi, then some osmanthus cakes...
Huo Mianmian remained quietly seated at the table until he overheard the conversation at the next table.
The guests at that table were a mother and daughter.
The daughter pushed away a glass of fruit juice with a whine.
The mother said indulgently to her daughter, "Don't be picky. You should drink more fruit juice; it's good for your health."
Fruit juice is good for your health.
Huo Mianmian heard these words.
He blinked his eyes, thinking about something.
Soon, he slid off the chair, took a plate, and went to the fruit section.
Unfortunately, the fruits were placed a bit high, and he was too short.
He had to stand on tiptoe and stretch hard to reach the fruits.
After much effort, he only managed to grab the nearest lemons.
Lemons are fruits, right?
Huo Mianmian thought so and took several slices of lemon.
Finally, when his plate was full, he stopped taking more lemons.
Huo Mianmian returned to the table with his plate full of lemons, placed it on the table, and then ran to get a cup.
Everything prepared, Huo Mianmian sat at the table and began making his lemon juice.
He picked up a slice of lemon and squeezed it hard with his small hands until the juice dripped into the cup, then threw the pulp into the trash and started squeezing another slice...
After repeating this many times, Huo Mianmian finally had half a cup of lemon juice.
Looking at the lemon juice, he smiled happily, his dimples spreading sweetness around his cheeks.
