A gentle breeze carried those sweet words into Ye Minghan's ears.
Having never been to the kitchen before, he raised his eyebrows almost imperceptibly upon hearing the question. His hand, which was gently stroking the end of her hair, paused for a second before resuming its normal motion.
He gazed at the little figure nestled against his chest, his pale red lips curving slightly.
"Small cakes? Yan Yan likes them?"
His voice, which was going through puberty, didn't have the unpleasantness of a hoarse voice; instead, it had a captivating and alluring quality.
This is not much different from his voice when he was an adult; it is still so deep, magnetic, and alluring.
Hua Qingyan looked up at his deep eyes, which seemed to be filled with dazzling starlight, as if a shooting star had fallen into them.
If she weren't too young to do anything, she would have loved to kiss his mysterious and alluring eyes.
She sighed inwardly; her age and short stature were major disadvantages.
Now we can only wait until he grows up before we "eat" him!
With her mind replaying images unsuitable for children, she gazed intently into his eyes, which were brimming with tenderness.
"Yes, I like the little cakes you make."
She particularly emphasized the words "you did it".
In the previous small world, he was her personal chef.
She never eats cakes made by anyone other than him; she only likes the ones he makes.
Because he understands her unique taste, he will specially sprinkle her favorite crushed peanuts on top.
Recalling that soft yet crispy texture, my mouth waters instantly.
Her small hands, wrapped around his neck, swayed gently, and her soft, sweet voice, unique to her age, drifted out from behind her veil.
"Hanhan, I want to eat."
Her large, dark, bright eyes were filled with a clear longing.
The sunlight was gradually setting in the west, casting long, soft rays upon her, making her appear as if she were a playful little fairy who had secretly descended from heaven.
Lively, pretty, and lovable.
Ye Minghan's hands around her waist gradually tightened, pinning her to his lap, his lips slightly parted in a gentle smile:
"Okay, I'll make sure Yan Yan gets to eat it tonight."
Even after receiving a positive answer, the girl couldn't resist leaning close to his cheek through her veil and gently kissing him.
This kiss had nothing to do with love; it was simply because she couldn't suppress her excitement.
Her Hanhan was a favored child of heaven in this life, with special servants to take care of her every need, so she must have never cooked before.
The fact that he's willing to learn for her now means he has a lot of feelings for her, so there's no need to worry about him driving her away.
And we can't let him really treat her like a younger sister!
Otherwise, when she grows up, she'll have nowhere to cry.
Furthermore, having been spoiled by him to the point of being unable to do anything in her previous life, she certainly wouldn't wrong herself this time.
She wanted to raise him to be hers alone, to make him completely devoted to her.
Most importantly, this was a time of frequent wars, and she wanted him to have her in his heart so that he wouldn't risk his life.
Upon unexpectedly receiving a kiss, Ye Shao was slightly taken aback. Although it was through a veil, the familiar touch etched into his bones still stirred up a strong emotion within him.
His deep eyes gleamed with an obscure, unfathomable light.
Just then, a woman wearing a high-slit cheongsam slowly walked towards them.
When she saw Ye Minghan, who was sitting in a wheelchair with a leg disability, a look of amazement flashed in her eyes. His handsome appearance was even more beautiful than a woman's.
She is a dancer named Peony, and she has been in the profession for ten years.
Having seen all sorts of beautiful women in various nightclubs, this was truly the first time she had ever seen a man who was more exquisite and charming than a woman.
And the little girl sitting in his lap, even with a veil on her face, her captivating eyes revealed her stunning beauty.
She already possesses a charming beauty at such a young age; she'll definitely be a stunning beauty when she grows up.
In the past two days, there happened to be a prominent family in Tongxiang, the Song family, who were looking for a girl under the age of ten to treat the Song family's chief illness. The only requirement was that she be beautiful.
If a suitable person is found, they will receive 500 silver dollars.
She happened to be passing by when she saw the little girl sitting on the handsome young man's lap, and that's when she immediately thought of this.
She traveled from Beiping to this place half a month ago, spending all her savings, and now urgently needs money to buy clothes.
The aloof young man sitting in the wheelchair is clearly disabled and unable to walk.
The little girl was probably around six years old; she was easy to fool.
Although they were dressed very fashionably, clearly the kind of people who were not short of money, they had no servants around them.
In the past two weeks, she has learned about most of the sons of prominent families in Tongxiang, and has not heard of any of them suffering from hidden illnesses.
This means that the "two siblings" are not locals.
When she arrived at the department store, she saw a passenger ship docked at the pier, which led her to deduce that they were passing through the area on a cruise ship.
In this chaotic world where finding a person is harder than climbing to heaven, abducting a child is incredibly easy.
Although the boy's eyes were cold and sharp, making him intimidating, his crippled legs meant he was unlikely to cause any trouble.
Wearing a narrow-waisted, high-slit cheongsam, Peony, thinking of this, lowered the darkness in her eyes, put on her high heels, and walked over to the "siblings" sitting in the wheelchair. Looking at Hua Qingyan, who was wearing a veil, she spoke gently:
"Little sister, I need your help."
She had just stood a meter away from the wheelchair when Ye Minghan's dark, unfathomable eyes shot out bursts of cold light.
His face, sculpted to perfection, was covered with a thick layer of frost, chillingly cold.
Their chilling gaze was enough to send shivers down one's spine.
