Bai Xiaoruo woke up when she smelled a fragrance, not knowing how long she had slept.

My stomach is so hungry, it's still protesting even though I'm asleep.

Hmm~ What smells so good? It smells like strawberries...

She slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw the strawberry cake in Xian Mingyu's hand, she sat up in bed with a look of surprise.

A little disbelieving, thinking she was still dreaming, Bai Xiaoru rubbed her eyes again. The cake was still there. She pinched her cheek again, "Ouch!"

It's true, the cake didn't disappear, this isn't a dream.

Wow, it really is a cake!

"Silly girl, why are you pinching yourself?" Xian Mingyu scolded, wondering why she was pinching herself for no reason.

Because he was in a hurry to finish making it and bring it up to her, he hadn't had time to wash his hands, nor did he dare to touch her face. Bai Xiaoruo pinched half of her fair face until it turned red.

"Let me check..." Bai Xiaoru swallowed, wanting to eat it but reluctant to. "Did you really make this?"

"Of course." Xuan Mingyu said with a proud look on his face.

I finally managed to make this one, but I haven't even tasted it yet. I followed the recipe, so the taste should be alright. I worked on it from noon until after 4 pm, which was really exhausting.

Regardless of whether Bai Xiaoruo liked it or not, Xuan Mingyu was almost sick of smelling flour and baking cakes all afternoon.

"You're so amazing!" Bai Xiaoruo happily hugged his neck.

Making desserts and cakes is no challenge for Bai Xiaoruo, but this is the first time in her life that someone has made a cake for her by hand. Even though it's just a small piece, it has made her excited for a long time.

She suddenly pounced on him, almost spilling the strawberry cake in Xuan Mingyu's hands. "Okay, okay, don't get excited. If the cake spills, there won't be any left to eat."

"Oh, right, right, we can't spill it." Bai Xiaoruo quickly let go of him and carefully took the cake from his hand and placed it on the bedside table.

Then, Bai Xiaoruo started looking for her phone again, "I want to take a picture of it."

This was the first cake he ever made for her, so it had to be commemorated properly.

After taking several photos, Bai Xiaoruo couldn't help but lick her lips. This cake looked really good. Not only was there a thick layer of strawberry jam on top, but there was also pink and white cream, and three large red strawberries. It looked so delicious.

But the thought that there's only one piece of cake, and it'll be gone once it's eaten, and that taking one bite would ruin its original appearance, is such a pity.

Bai Xiaoruo felt a little reluctant to eat it.

"Alright, that's enough filming, go eat." Xuan Mingyu handed her a fork.

"I don't really want to eat anymore."

"Why? You think it's ugly? Then I'll turn it upside down and make you a new one."

Just as Xian Mingyu was about to take the cake away, Bai Xiaoruo panicked and hurriedly grabbed his hand, "No, no, no, I didn't say it was ugly."

If he dares to fall, she'll fight him to the death.

She just couldn't bear to eat it, not that she really hated eating it.

Bai Xiaoruo put the strawberry cake back in its original place. "I just feel that this is so precious, it would be a waste to eat it. I want to keep it and look at it a little longer. This is the first cake you made for me by hand, so it means a lot to me."

Hsien Mingyu paused for a moment, then laughed, "Are you silly? It's just a piece of cake, what's the big deal? I'll make it for you again if you want to eat it later."

"Really? You... can still make me eat like this again?"

"Yes, I will give you anything you want."

Thank you~

Bai Xiaoruo suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She didn't mean to make things difficult for him, but his words made her really happy.

"Alright, try it now and see if it suits your taste."

"Hmm!" Bai Xiaoruo took the steel fork from Xian Mingyu's hand and was about to eat when she suddenly thought of a question, "By the way, can I put a candle on it and make a wish first?"

"Light candles? It's not a birthday, what's there to wish for?"

"Oh, right, that's true..." Bai Xiaoruo realized that what she said was a bit silly. "Then, three days later, could you make me another cake that looks exactly like this one?"

"No problem, you can try it first and see if it tastes good. I'll make it for you again in three days." Xuan Mingyu readily agreed.

"Then, you must remember it's midnight."

"The early morning? You want to eat cake so late at night?" Xian Mingyu was a little puzzled. He felt that this little girl seemed to be hiding something from him. Why did she have to make an exact copy three days later? And why did it have to be in the early morning?

"Is it not allowed?"

"Yes, you can, but you can only eat a little. It's not good to eat too much cream at night."

"Yes, I promise."

The thought of eating his homemade cake again on her birthday in three days made Bai Xiaoruo feel a little excited.

I bought some candles when I went shopping with him the other day, so we can put them on the cake later.

Bai Xiaoruo then felt relieved and began to eat the cake.

She dipped a fork into the cream, put it in her mouth, and tasted the delicate strawberry flavor mixed with the rich milky aroma, yet it wasn't sticky at all. Bai Xiaoru's eyes lit up, "So delicious!"

She scooped out most of the cake with her fork, bite after bite.

I picked up a big strawberry and tried it. It was sweet and sour, but the sweet flavor was more prominent. It was so delicious. I took a big bite, and my mouth was full of strawberry flavor.
