Chapter 122
Zachary casually said, “Get Mr. Thompson to pick me up from now on.”
Steven was puzzled. “Why? What happened?”
Zachary didn’t plan to reveal his true thoughts. “I just think you have to buy gifts for us every day, and it costs a lot of money. So, you’d better focus on working hard at the company. Otherwise, your income won’t be enough.” Steven didn’t expect Zachary to be so thoughtful. He was so happy that he hugged the latter and gave him a kiss on the cheek. “Alright!”

On the way, I took out the dresses I had bought for Willow and showed them to her, one set after another.
Willow’s jaw dropped. The earlier gloom lifted from her face. She happily asked, “Mommy, did you buy all of these for me?”
I nodded. “Of course!”
Willow hugged the beautiful dresses and suddenly began to cry.
I quickly wiped her tears. “Do you not like them?”
“No!” Willow’s eyes were red. “I just didn’t expect you to buy me clothes, Mommy. I’m so happy.”
I hugged her. “When I get paid, I’ll buy you more.”
Willow immediately turned me down. “No, Mommy. It’s not easy for you to make money. Let’s save it up.”
She looked up at me. “But maybe occasionally, you can buy me one set. That’s fine.”
She was eternally happy to receive something from me.
“Alright.” I understood that Willow didn’t want me to spend too much money. “I have another piece of good news for you today.”
Willow’s attention was completely captured. She excitedly asked, “What is it?”
“I’m planning to take you and Daddy out for dinner.” I gently tapped her nose. “Is there anything you’d like to eat?”
Willow looked at Zane secretly, as if worried I might spend too much.
She lowered her voice so that Zane wouldn’t hear us and said, “I want to go to the food market and see if there’s anything nice to eat.” Zane looked at Willow in surprise.
Willow buried her face in my arms, whispering, “Mommy, please say yes.”
I naturally sought Zane’s opinion. “Is it okay?”
Zane pect that his properly didn’t raised d daughter had been wanting to eat street food all along.

Because Willow was willing to communicate with him, Zane felt that she was much livelier than before. He asked, “What’s up?”
“Daddy, should we line up separately?” Willow didn’t wait for Zane to reply and had already assumed he would agree.
Not knowing how to read yet, she pointed to the stall with the longest line. “You go to that one.”
Zane indulged her. “Okay.”
Willow took my hand. “I’m a little kid, so I need an adult with me. So, Mommy, you stay with me in this line.”
I naturally didn’t mind. “No problem.”
With Willow’s guidance, the three of us bought eight different snacks.
Willow wanted to try everything she saw and urged us to keep buying when she felt it wasn’t enough.
However, Zane refused, his tone unusually serious, “Let’s finish what we have first, or we’ll be wasting food.”
Willow reluctantly glanced at the never-ending stalls and sighed. “Alright.”
After placing the snacks on the table, Willow tried a piece of grilled shrimp, her eyes widening in surprise. “It’s delicious!” She then used a toothpick to pick up a piece of shrimp and offered it to me.
“Mommy, you should try it, too!”
