Chapter 338: 338: Are You Going to Cause Trouble for Me Again?
Morgan nodded rapidly, like a pecking chick, “Sure, sure! Could we also swing by the Lego Store? I want to add some more roads and plants!”
If I could get a few more from the LEGO Neighborhood series, that would be perfect!
Adrian Zhekova teased Morgan with a smirk, “I can get it for you, but are you going to continue causing mischief?”
Morgan immediately covered his face in embarrassment, saying, “Ouch! I didn’t mean to! I won’t get in the way of your bonding time.”
“Of course, if I accidentally get in your way, then that would definitely be unintentional,” Morgan quickly added.
Cindy Clarke sneakily pinched Adrian.
What on earth had he secretly talked about with Morgan?
Still, Cindy was considerate of Adrian’s dignity as a father, she just sneakily pinched him without letting Morgan see.
In front of Morgan, Adrian took the pinch without changing his expression.
“Let’s go out to eat then,” Cindy said, “We don’t have groceries at home. It’s a good chance to buy some for dinner tonight which I will cook.”
Cindy tilted her head in thought, then said, “Consider this… a celebration for
Morgan and me moving into the new place.”
“Good,” Adrian agreed with a smile, “From now on, if there’s any groceries you want to buy, just tell the housekeeper. She’ll bring it every time she comes over so you won’t have to go shopping yourself.”
While speaking, Morgan was already putting on his coat.
It was autumn, and the weather was getting chilly.
Morgan was considerate and did it without Cindy reminding him.
And then, the three of them took off.
Because Morgan wanted to see Legos, they chose a shopping mall with a Lego Store.
The mall was located in a bustling area and catered to mid to high-end consumers.
While there aren’t many people visiting the physical stores in the mall to buy clothes nowadays as online shopping offers better value for money.
However, many popular restaurants, including those under Pingla Corp., have branches here.
Additionally, the cinema in the mall was top-notch, from the screens to the effects, so both students and working adults, friends gathering, and dating couples were attracted to the place.
The foot traffic in the mall was rather substantial.
Deciding on what to have for lunch, Adrian left it to Cindy and Morgan.
Morgan was not sure how many restaurants Adrian owned.
But as luck would have it, in this mall, where half of the restaurants belong to Pingla Corp., Morgan chose a Charcoal Grilled Frog restaurant.
Since it’s to Morgan’s liking, they had to give it a try.
Luckily, they arrived past one in the afternoon, after the lunch rush.
So they didn’t have to wait and were seated immediately.
After ordering their food, while they waited for it to be served. Morgan whispered to Cindy, “Cindy, I need to go to the bathroom.”
“I’ll accompany you then,” Cindy responded.
“No need, I can go by myself.” Morgan claimed. He has been able to handle his bathroom needs independently since he was three years old.
“You can go to the bathroom on your own, but I have to accompany you to the bathroom entrance,” Cindy insisted.
“The restaurant in the mall does not have a dedicated bathroom: will have
to use the one in the mall. I’m afraid you may get lost,” Cindy explained, “And what if you lose your way back to the restaurant after coming out of the bathroom?”
Morgan began to protest. Despite his young age, he had a great sense of direction.
Besides, there are signposts, which he can read.
But Cindy wasn’t about to take any chances..
