Without paying attention to the stunned uncle, Jin Yufan watched as the little girl approached him step by step, and a charming smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
He pulled out a corner of a chair: "Come, sit down and eat!" After saying that, Jin Yufan took a plate from the side, placed some fragrant fish balls and fish rolls on it, and handed it to the little girl who had now reached the table.
The little girl looked at the delicious food on the table, swallowed her saliva, and then looked at Jin Yufan, her face showing a moment of hesitation. However, hunger ultimately took over, and she sat down.
"Big brother, can I eat these things?" The little girl sat down but did not start eating immediately. Instead, she looked at Jin Yufan cautiously and asked softly.
"Of course, if not for you, who else would I give them to? Come, come, don't be shy, eat! There's plenty of food, and I can always call for more!" Smiling at the cute little girl, Jin Yufan took a skewer of fish balls and offered it to her mouth, saying softly, "They're very delicious, come, try them!"
Seemingly very hungry, or perhaps trusting Jin Yufan a lot, the little girl did not say anything this time and directly bit into a fish ball.
The moment the little girl bit into the fish ball, her charming big eyes widened, and she started eating the fish balls much faster. While eating, she mumbled, "Mm, big brother, these fish balls are so delicious!"
"Ha ha!" Seeing the little girl's adorable appearance, Jin Yufan couldn't help but laugh.
Not just Jin Yufan, the uncle beside him also showed a gentle smile. Indeed, watching the little girl eat the fish balls cutely was like a perfect picture, making one feel warm and cozy, and a smile naturally appeared on his face.
"Ha ha, if you like them, eat more!" Seeing the little girl wolf down the fish balls, Jin Yufan quickly said, and without him needing to ask, she took the fish balls from his hand and started eating them in large bites. Jin Yufan then signaled the uncle to bring more fish balls and fish rolls.
"Come, don't choke, drink some water first!" Seeing the little girl wolf down the food, Jin Yufan was really worried she might choke from eating too fast, so he quickly poured a glass of water and said.
The little girl seemed to have completely let down her guard at this moment, obediently took the glass, and drank half of it in one gulp. She then put the glass down and continued eating.
"Ask about the child's situation!" The uncle brought the food Jin Yufan had ordered to the table and, taking advantage of the little girl's distraction, whispered to Jin Yufan.
At this point, the uncle understood that the little girl only trusted Jin Yufan and had no guard up, but was very cautious around others.
Even when the uncle brought the food over, the little girl's body clearly reacted, keeping a distance from the uncle.
Therefore, the uncle realized that to understand the identity and situation of the little girl who was wolfing down the food, Jin Yufan had to be the one to ask.
Actually, even without the uncle's reminder, Jin Yufan himself was very curious about the little girl's name, where she was from, and why she was wandering the streets at midnight without going home.
Thinking about this, Jin Yufan leisurely ate some rice cakes and smiled as he asked, "Little sister, what's your name?"
"Suzy, Bae Suzy!" Hearing Jin Yufan's question, the little girl subconsciously answered.
"Ah, so your name is Bae Suzy. Suzy, where are you from? Where are your parents? Why are you still on the street so late at night?"
Suzy, who was eating happily, stopped at Jin Yufan's words. Her charming big eyes looked at Jin Yufan, and tears suddenly welled up in her eyes. In just a few seconds, large tears started falling.
"I don't know where my dad went, wu wu wu~~~~ I want my dad, I want to go home!" As she spoke, Suzy started crying, and when she finished, she burst into loud sobs.
This made Jin Yufan and the uncle completely dumbfounded. They didn't expect Suzy's reaction to be so strong. For a moment, they both tried to comfort and reassure her, hoping she would stop, but the more they tried, the louder Suzy cried, showing no signs of stopping.
"Wa~~~~~~~~ Suzy wants to go home, why doesn't dad take Suzy home? I want to go home, I want to go back to Gwangju, I don't like it here..."
Neither Jin Yufan nor the uncle knew what to do in the face of Suzy's loud crying. They were flustered and busy, but it had almost no effect.
However, in the midst of this chaos, they learned a bit about Suzy's situation.
From Suzy's intermittent cries, they understood that she was not from Seoul but from Gwangju. The reason why she was in Seoul was unclear, but at least they knew she came with her father.
Now, Suzy's father was missing, and it was likely due to the large number of people in Seoul that they got separated.
Finally, the uncle came through. He brought out a large mixed dish, which included almost all the food from his street stall, and placed it in front of Suzy, saying softly, "This is the uncle's secret recipe and the signature dish. Even if people beg, they can't usually get to eat it. Suzy, come and try it, see how it tastes."
Perhaps she was still hungry, or perhaps the aroma of the mixed dish was too strong. Although she was still crying, Suzy's attention was immediately drawn to the mixed dish. She looked at the uncle again, then cautiously reached out, picked up the chopsticks, and tried a bite.
Children's moods come and go quickly, and the same goes for crying. It seemed endless, but once her attention was captured by something, she could stop immediately. The mixed dish was indeed the uncle's signature dish, and it tasted very good. Just one bite, and Suzy forgot to cry and started eating attentively.
Seeing that Suzy had stopped crying, the uncle and Jin Yufan both breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was only a short half-minute, the uncle felt more exhausted than setting up his stall for the whole night. As for Jin Yufan, he felt more tired than participating in "Music Bank" at KBS today, where he was directed by seniors.
