Chapter 123 - Are These Dumplings?

123 Are These Dumplings?

Chu Tianbao followed suit and stood beside Bai Wutong. Bai Wutong handed him the rolling pin and taught him, “Press the rolling pin with one hand. When you exert strength, use this hand to turn the dough in this direction.”

Chu Tianbao tried and his dumpling skin did not look like anything.

Bai Wutong smiled and realized that his technique was wrong. She personally held his hand and instructed, “Don’t use too much strength. Just gently…”

Under the careful guidance of Bai Wutong, Chu Tianbao quickly mastered the technique. A complete dumpling skin that was like a big round moon was finally made.

In his excitement, he kissed Bai Wutong’s face several times like he usually did to Stinky.

After kissing her, he didn’t notice anything wrong. He turned around and continued to flatten the noodles.

However, Bai Wutong’s ears quickly turned red as she stood there stunned.

Only then did she realize that her posture with Chu Tianbao was extremely ambiguous. She was clearly behind him just now, but she was unknowingly pulled into Chu Tianbao’s arms.

Bai Wutong awkwardly tried to break free from his arms. Chu Tianbao looked up with a strange expression. “Wife?” He didn’t seem to understand why Bai Wutong was moving around.

His hot breath was all over her face, and his deep eyes were filled with her. In an instant, Bai Wutong felt her heart burning.

Bai Wutong crawled out from under Chu Tianbao’s arm in a panic. Her eyes flickered as she said, “The water in the pot is boiling. I’ll go take a look.”

Only when she went to the kitchen, then she realize that the dumplings had not been wrapped and she had not boiled any water at all.

Bai Wutong returned with a red face. Chu Tianbao was still focused on flattening his dumpling skin and did not notice her abnormality.

Bai Wutong lowered her eyes, a sense of loss lingering in her chest.

Quickly, she composed herself and walked to Chu Tianbao. “There’s enough dumpling skin. Let me teach you how to make dumplings.”

Bai Wutong picked up a dumpling skin and had just picked up the dumpling filling with her chopsticks when Chu Tianbao naturally hugged her from behind.

Startled, Bai Wutong turned to meet his deep features and handsome face. “What are you doing?”

Chu Tianbao looked at her strangely. “Aren’t we making dumplings?”

Bai Wutong was speechless and said helplessly, “There’s no need to get so close when making dumplings. Stand further away and watch carefully.”

Chu Tianbao didn’t move. Instead, he leaned his head closer and took a deep breath. “Tianbao wants to make dumplings with my wife like this.”

Bai Wutong had always emphasized to Chu Tianbao to never lie, but now, her face was red from his words.

Her cheeks were hot, and her temperature was rapidly rising. Chu Tianbao realized that half of her fair skin was gradually turning into an alluring peach color. He couldn’t help but lean against her face, and his beautiful thin lips seemed to be about to land on hers in the next second.

Bai Wutong’s heart was pounding. She turned her head slightly to dodge, but her movement was very small, so small that Chu Tianbao did not notice it at all.

Suddenly, Xiaobai howled at the door.

Bai Wutong’s blurry eyes instantly sobered up. She pushed Chu Tianbao away and said, “Qingfeng and the others are here. I’ll open the door.”

Chu Tianbao watched as Bai Wutong hurriedly left. He let out a disappointed “Oh” and poked a hole in the dumpling skin with his finger.

Bai Wutong walked out of the kitchen and looked back at the lights in the house. She lowered her eyes and thought about it. If Gu Zhongxun’s master was found and Chu Tianbao’s head was cured, and he really didn’t marry or have children, living with Chu Tianbao like this seemed… seemed pretty good.

Bai Wutong opened the door and saw Qingfeng carrying five life rabbits. Sheng Huaixuan was carrying Stinky, and Lin Yue was carrying all kinds of snacks. Cui Lingyi smiled and shook the fine wine in her hand. Cui Muzhi was holding the wind chime that he had made himself.

Bai Wutong smiled and welcomed them in. “The dumplings are not wrapped yet. You can go to the study and have a cup of warm tea first.”

Sheng Huaixuan smiled and suggested, “Why don’t we help together?”

Bai Wutong glanced at them. “Alright, it’s also an interesting activity to make dumplings together.”

Suddenly, many people entered the kitchen. When Chu Tianbao saw Stinky in Sheng Huaixuan’s arms, he suddenly revealed two rows of white teeth. He spread his hands and said happily, “Son!”

Stinky also opened its chubby arms and wanted to pounce into Chu Tianbao’s arms.

“Daddy… Daddy…”

He only knew how to say ‘Daddy’ now, and he was only willing to call Chu Tianbao ‘Daddy’. He didn’t know how the two of them had become so close after hating each other back then.

While Bai Wutong went out for a short while, Chu Tianbao’s face and body were already covered in flour. Bai Wutong pulled him to a corner and patted the flour on his face. She untied his apron and said gently, “Wash your hands and carry Stinky to the room to play.”

Chu Tianbao nodded and quickly washed his hands. He lifted Stinky to ride on his head before going upstairs to play.

Sheng Huaixuan took the initiative to ask to help make the dumplings. Bai Wutong thought that the richest man in the business world would know how to make dumplings, but in the end, he was at a loss as to what to do.

Bai Wutong turned her head to look again. Qingfeng nimbly picked up the dumpling skin and dug out some dumpling filling to place on it.

Everyone looked surprised. Lin Yue even revealed a shocked expression that was questioning her for knowing how to make dumplings.

Under everyone’s gaze, Qingfeng calmly pressed and skilfully wrapped a wanton.

“…” A wanton!

Everyone stared at the dumpling that looked like wanton and suddenly fell silent.

Only Lin Yue was confused. “Are these dumplings?”

Qingfeng heard the mockery in his words and looked at him coldly. Lin Yue immediately retracted his smile and nodded in agreement. “That’s right. These are dumplings.”

Lin Yue looked sincere, as if he was telling the truth. Qingfeng almost believed him.

Bai Wutong found them very interesting. The corners of her mouth curled up. “There are many ways to wrap dumplings. Qingfeng’s method is one of them.” She praised sincerely, “It’s well wrapped! The filling definitely won’t leak out!”

Cui Lingyi raised her hand. “I want to learn how to make dumplings.”

Bai Wutong was naturally willing to teach her. She put Qingfeng’s ‘dumplings’ aside and picked up the dumpling skin to demonstrate. “If you turn it like this and fold it into a sunflower, it’ll be sunflower dumplings. There’s also this kind of moon dumpling with a folded edge. There’s also this kind of casual dumpling that’s similar to what Qingfeng made just now, and this kind of…”

Bai Wutong made one dumpling per second. They were of different shapes, but all of them were white, plump, and cute.

This was the first time everyone had seen so many types of dumplings. They picked up the dumpling skins and tried to imitate her.

Everyone was smart. Once Bai Wutong taught them, they quickly picked it up.

Lin Yue even deliberately placed the best dumpling he had made in front of Qingfeng’s ‘dumplings’. He glanced at her sideways, seemingly wanting to provoke Qingfeng and telling her that this was what a dumpling should look like.

Qingfeng’s hand speed was fast. In the blink of an eye, she had already imitated a sunflower dumpling that had the greatest difficulty and placed it in front of Lin Yue’s dumplings.

...

Lin Yue’s dumplings versus Qingfeng’s dumplings. Lin Yue’s dumplings were instantly defeated.

He glared at her indignantly, and Qingfeng returned with an expression saying he was dumb.𝐟𝓇𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝐛n𝐨ν𝙚𝚕. c𝚘m
