Chu Chu staggered along, looking exactly like a drunkard, patting her chubby cheeks with her two little hands, and threw herself into Qi Yu's arms with a wronged expression.
Lan Qingyue looked completely bewildered: "???"
Director Tsai: "!!!"
Staff member: "!!!"
Ahhh! The big boss got his eye on again! Is this the charm of a handsome guy?!
Qi Yu ignored the astonished people, closed his laptop and put it aside. He then easily lifted Chu Chu up by placing his hands under her armpits. Chu Chu's chubby body pressed against Qi Yu's thighs, her back against his embrace, her two plump legs dangling. She looked incredibly comfortable.
Lan Qingyue kneaded the dough, again and again, as if the soft dough were Chu Chu's chubby face.
She was planning to make some cookies and bake bread.
The cookie dough has been kneaded. Place it on a kneading mat and roll it out thinly with a rolling pin. Sprinkle some of it with raisins and some with dried cranberries.
The dried fruit prepared by the production team was in small packets, seemingly sold in bulk by weight. They prepared a little of each kind, and if used sparingly, it would be enough.
Lan Qingyue only started mixing the new flour after the cookies were baked in the oven.
She wasn't planning to make a cake, worried that it would turn out to be a big pancake.
High-gluten flour, granulated sugar, milk, yeast, warm water, kneading—Lan Qingyue spent over ten minutes doing all this in a simple and straightforward way. She covered the dough, which she couldn't knead smoothly no matter what, and let it ferment. Then she sat on a small stool, staring at the cookies in the oven.
The other guests were still busy. Lan Qingyue was accompanied by Yu Qingqing and Guan Zhizhi. As the mother of the "male lead" Lin Muze, Yu Qingqing was set up as a perfect person who was proficient in everything. Making a few pastries was a piece of cake for her.
Good-looking people are pleasing to the eye no matter what they do. Yu Qingqing gracefully cracked eggs, separated the yolks, and whipped the whites, going through a series of cake-making steps with a calm and composed demeanor.
Lan Qingyue was somewhat lost in thought when she felt a weight on her back. Chu Chu, the little chubby girl, had returned at some point, her chubby little hands encircling her neck, her plump and heavy body pressing against her back.
Lan Qingyue pinched Chu Chu's chubby arm and said in an annoyed tone, "Why did you come back? Wasn't the boss's embrace comfortable?"
This chubby kid is obsessed with looks!
Chu Chu nodded emphatically, her soft hair brushing against Lan Qingyue's neck, tickling him slightly. "Uncle Qi's hug is so warm~~~"
Lan Qingyue: "..."
cut!
Go ahead and go, don't come back!
Chu Chu nestled against Lan Qingyue's back, her chubby face as soft as jelly. She sucked on her hand, a glistening drop of drool landing on Lan Qingyue's clothes. "Mommy, the cookies are ready! Time for cookies~~~"
She had just returned by the smell of cookies; if it weren't for the aroma, she wouldn't have wanted to leave Uncle Qi's warm embrace.
Lan Qingyue: "..."
Wow, that little nose is so sharp! She was watching over it and didn't even notice the cookies were ready. This little foodie can smell them from so far away, amazing!
Lan Qingyue put Chu Chu down, put on heat-resistant gloves and took out the cookies. The aroma of milk and dried fruit blended together, making them exceptionally rich. Each square cookie was decorated with dried fruit, making them even more appetizing.
Director Cai, smelling the scent, ran over with a broad smile, along with a certain big shot.
