Chapter 1123 - 039 Zhuangzi_4
"What, aren’t you embarrassed?" He Xiaodong scolded with a blush and a glaring eye, her lips accused him, yet the happiness in her eyes couldn’t be hidden.
He Chengfang grinned, revealing a row of pearly white teeth, "I am the future son-in-law, we’re already engaged after all."
"Engagement is just an engagement, we are not married yet." While speaking, He Xiaodong lowered her head and lifted the clean cloth covering the small basket to reveal a teapot, two cups, and some homemade fried cakes.
"Miss, young master, father came home and said you both wanted to come see this villa, so he sent me to bring the keys to the yard. He also mentioned you have been out since early morning and must be hungry, so he asked me to bring some snacks for you."
He Xiaodong took out the plates somewhat shyly and chuckled: "This, these are the fried cakes I made myself. They might not look great, nor are they as tasty as the ones in the Capital city’s restaurants, but still, they taste quite good. Would you like to try?"
Truth be told, those fried cakes indeed didn’t look very appealing, a bit scorched, probably because she hadn’t controlled the heat well. But Lin Yuan wasn’t fussy, especially given the wholehearted kindness before her. Repeatedly assuring it was fine, she picked up her chopsticks and tried a fried cake.
The fried cake was not only scorched on the outside but also very oily and sweet on the inside. Lin Yuan took one bite and didn’t want any more. Yet, not wanting to make He Xiaodong feel embarrassed, she took a sip of tea and bravely ate down the fried cake.
Seeing her eat with such heartiness, He Xiaodong and He Chengfang were both delighted and urged her to eat more.
