After acquiring the badge, Qin Lang looked up at the wall clock hanging in the living room.

The whole process of making the lotus seed paste had taken quite a bit of time.

At this moment, nearly two hours had passed since he had arrived at Daisy Garden.

Dinner service time was approaching, and he needed to return to make steamed bass.

Noticing Qin Lang watching the time, Song Hui took the initiative to ask, “Do you have other matters to attend to?”

“Yes, I’m currently a hanging-position Spirit Chef at a restaurant.” Qin Lang smiled.

“I see.” Song Hui nodded, then showed a regretful expression, “I had intended to personally cook a meal to express my gratitude, after all, you helped me find Su Zhi yesterday.”

On the side, Su Zhi wiped her mouth, also revealing a somewhat reluctant expression on her face.

“Miss Song, you are too polite.” Qin Lang shook his head, “I was just passing by, and 1 didn’t do much.”

He glanced at Su Zhi, understanding that the mother-daughter relationship would quickly return to its previous state once he left.

After a moment of hesitation, Qin Lang slowly spoke, “Miss Song, it may be out of line for me to interfere too much in your affairs, but I have a suggestion that you might want to consider.”

“It’s okay, go ahead.” Song Hui shook her head, looking at Qin Lang.

She was aware of the problems between her and her daughter.

At this moment, she could not think of any way to resolve this conflict, perhaps Qin Lang’s advice could offer a solution.

“I understand that as a Food Recommender, and also managing Daisy Garden, you are very busy.” Qin Lang paused, “This often leaves you unable to spare time to accompany Su Zhi, who is at an age where she needs your company.”

“That’s true.” Song Hui nodded.

“However, 1 believe that sometimes work and accompanying a child are not necessarily mutually exclusive.” Qin Lang recalled an experience of a friend from a past life.

She was a single mother who was also his coworker.

She was busy as well, but to take care of her child, she chose to bring her child to work.

At first, the friend was worried that the child would disturb her colleagues, but it turned out that the child was very well-behaved. Not only did she not bother others, but she also developed a strong interest in cooking from observing the chef in the kitchen at an early age.

Thinking of this, Qin Lang smiled, “Have you ever asked Su Zhi what she wants to do in the future?”

“This…” Song Hui shook her head, looking at her daughter on the side, “Su Zhi is still young, I had planned to wait until she’s older to discuss this…”

“I want to be a Spiritual Chef.” Su Zhi interrupted Song Hui’s words, voluntarily speaking, “I want to become a Spiritual Chef like Mum, using flowers to make delicious desserts!”

“Su Zhi…” Upon hearing Su Zhi’s words, Song Hui was touched.

So her daughter has always regarded herself as her future goal…

“Miss Song, since Su Zhi also wants to become a Spiritual Chef like you in the future, you can start nurturing her in this aspect.” Qin Lang smiled, “I am not very familiar with the fusion of flowers and desserts, but 1 am aware that understanding flowers is indispensable.”

“Indeed.” Song Hui nodded in agreement.

This was also one of the reasons why she personally nurtures the flowers in Daisy Garden every day.

“When you are usually tending to the flowers in Daisy Garden, you can bring Su Zhi along. For her, it’s a process of familiarizing herself with flowers, and it may also alleviate some of your work burden.” Qin Lang paused, “More importantly, it will increase the time you spend together on a daily basis.”

Upon hearing Qin Lang’s suggestion, Song Hui’s eyes suddenly lit up.

She had been too indulgent with Su Zhi before, almost raising her in a honey jar, and would not let Su Zhi participate in the laborious process of nurturing the flowers.

Now, Qin Lang’s suggestion seemed to have opened a new door for her.

Right!

If she lacked company due to being too busy, why not let her child accompany her?

However, there was one more question left, whether her daughter…

“I am willing!” Before Song Hui could ask, Su Zhi had already grabbed the hem of her skirt, “1 am willing to help nurture the flowers in Daisy Garden with Mum!”

“Usually, when you’re cooking delicious food, you can also let Su Zhi participate more.” Qin Lang continued to suggest.

“In that case…” Song Hui bent down, gently hugging her daughter, “From now on, Su Zhi will be Mum’s little helper-”

“Yes!”

Su Zhi nodded vigorously, a smile appearing on her face, her dimples making her look cuter than any dessert.

Seeing her daughter finally willing to get close to her, Song Hui revealed a relieved smile.

She stood up again, gratefully looking at Qin Lang, “Thank you so much.”

“It’s nothing.” Qin Lang nodded.

The problem between Su Zhi and her mother had been resolved, he could now leave at ease.

“Miss Song, Su Zhi, it’s getting late, I should take my leave.”

“Alright.” Song Hui nodded, then seemingly remembered something, “Wait a minute.”

She quickly walked to the constant temperature showcase, selected a few small packages of various kinds of desserts, packed them carefully in an exquisite box, and handed it to Qin Lang, “These are the desserts 1 made, try them and see if you like them.”

“I really didn’t know how to show my gratitude for your advice, I hope you don’t mind.”

“How could I?” Qin Lang held the box, looking at the eagerly anticipating Dan Bao on the side, and smiled, “I am looking forward to trying the desserts made by Miss Song.”

“That’s good then.” Song Hui, smiling, opened the door for Qin Lang, “Feel free to come again sometime.”

“Goodbye, Brother Qin Lang!” Su Zhi politely waved at Qin Lang, her eyes filled with admiration.

Brother Qin Lang is so amazing, he easily resolved the conflict between herself and her mother!

“Goodbye.” Qin Lang put on his shoes, helped Song Hui close the door, and then walked out of Daisy Garden with Dan Bao.

As he closed the main gate of Daisy Garden, Qin Lang could faintly see Su Zhi poking her head out of the villa window.

Waving at her, Qin Lang took a bag of desserts out of the box, looking at Dan Bao on the side, looking like a little glutton, “Didn’t you just eat three pieces of lotus seed paste?”

“Gulp!”

Dan Bao shook her head.

Just three pieces.

I, Dan Bao, am not even close to being full!

“Let’s eat these while we head to Starlight Restaurant.” Qin Lang opened the dessert bag.

He picked up one piece and put it in Dan Bao’s mouth, then Lord exclaimed.

The familiar shape was unmistakably a Daisy Ripple Cake.

Watching Dan Bao enjoying the dessert, making an utterly satisfied expression, Qin Lang took a piece and tasted it himself.

The rich aroma of baked milk, coupled with a light scent of daisies.

The two flavors combined perfectly, overflowing in his mouth as he chewed.

The taste was crunchy and full of flavor, sweet but not greasy.

After finishing the piece, Qin Lang understood why Su Zhi had chosen the Daisy Ripple Cake at the dessert shop last night.

This was probably the dessert that Miss Song was best at making.

“Indeed, she is a Food Recommender who bears the name of the daisy on her badge..”
