Transmigrating into a book: The little wife turns into a boss
Chapter 96 Is he a food taster?
Although Qiu Xiaona repeatedly said that she would not prepare a birthday present for Xie Junyi, she had actually been secretly planning to give him something.
She thought about it and decided to make a birthday cake by herself to bring a unique surprise to Xie Junyi.
So, she learned how to make cakes from the chef at home in the afternoon.
In the kitchen.
Qiu Xiaona, a cooking expert who is usually at ease in the kitchen, encountered unprecedented challenges when it came to making cakes.
Although she had cooked countless delicious dishes, her technique was stiff and clumsy when it came to making cakes.
She tried again and again, each time hoping for success, but each time ended in failure.
The batter was too thick, the cake collapsed, the decoration was uneven...all kinds of problems kept popping up, making her feel a little frustrated.
Maybe she really has no talent for Western desserts.
However, Qiu Xiaona did not give up.
Finally, before Xie Junyi got off work, Qiu Xiaona managed to make a cake with a recognizable shape. She hasn't tasted it yet, but she thinks it won't be too bad.
So she asked all the servants to leave the house, leaving only herself and the baby.
Qiu Xiaona sat on the sofa, holding the baby in her arms, and from time to time she lowered her head to rub his cheek affectionately.
Her eyes drifted out the window from time to time to see if Xie Junyi had returned home.
Qiu Xiaona saw that it was past the time to go home from get off work.
He picked up the phone and called Assistant Liu.
"Hello, Assistant Liu, has Xie Junyi finished get off work?" Qiu Xiaona's tone was full of anticipation.
"Madam, the president is still in a meeting and may be late." Assistant Liu's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Qiu Xiaona frowned slightly, but then relaxed again. She smiled and said, "Okay, if he gets off work, send me a message."
"Okay, ma'am." Assistant Liu responded.
"By the way, don't tell Xie Junyi that I called you for something." Qiu Xiaona specifically reminded him, "Although I'm not your direct superior, you should understand that my 'pillow talk' still has a certain power."
Assistant Liu nodded and said, "I understand. I will keep it a secret."
After hanging up the phone, Qiu Xiaona patted the baby's back gently and whispered, "Baby, let's wait for Dad to come back together, okay?"
The baby seemed to understand what his mother said. He blinked his big eyes and giggled.
As night fell, Xie Junyi finally finished his busy work and returned home.
As soon as he entered the door, what greeted him was not the warmth of bright lights, but pitch darkness, as if the whole house was immersed in the tranquility of the night.
However, in this boundless darkness, he vaguely sensed a faint light, which seemed to come from the direction of the restaurant.
Xie Junyi walked towards the direction of the light curiously. When he approached the restaurant, the scene in front of him stunned him.
Qiu Xiaona was standing next to the dining table, holding an exquisite cake in her hand. There were several candles on the cake. The candlelight flickered in the darkness, emitting a warm and soft light.
Qiu Xiaona sang the birthday song softly, her voice as sweet as the sound of nature, and she slowly walked towards him.
Her face was filled with a happy smile and her eyes were shining with anticipation.
Qiu Qiu Xiaona walked up to Xie Junyi, held the loving cake in both hands, handed it to him, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
She whispered, "Happy birthday to you, honey. Blow out the candles and make a wish."
Xie Junyi gazed into Qiu Xiaona's bright eyes, and a deep warmth surged in his heart.
He nodded gently, took a deep breath, and then blew out the candle vigorously.
Seeing this, Qiu Xiaona opened her mouth in surprise and hurriedly reminded: "You forgot to make a wish!"
Xie Junyi smiled and shook his head, gently holding Qiu Xiaona's hand, and said softly: "Nana, actually I have made a wish. My wish is to be with you forever and experience every bit of life together. I believe I can realize this wish."
After hearing this, Qiu Xiaona was deeply moved.
She gently placed the cake on the dining table, and in the candlelight, Xie Junyi was finally able to see the entire cake.
He was stunned, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
It's obvious that this cake was not bought outside, nor was it made by a chef at home.
Qiu Xiaona explained a little embarrassedly: "I made this cake myself. It may not look very good, but I have tried my best. You can try it. It should taste good."
As she spoke, she picked up the knife, carefully cut off a piece of cake, and gently placed it in front of Xie Junyi.
The cake looked particularly tempting under the candlelight, exuding a faint fragrance.
Xie Junyi looked at the cake in front of him and felt a warm feeling in his heart.
He picked up the fork and was about to taste the delicious cake when the baby sitting in the high chair suddenly started babbling.
The little guy's eyes were fixed on the cake, as if he could smell the tempting aroma.
Saliva flowed from the corners of the baby's mouth. Seeing this, Qiu Xiaona quickly picked up a tissue and gently wiped the baby's saliva.
She smiled and said to the baby, "Baby, you can't eat this cake! Mommy doesn't know how it tastes, let your daddy taste it first, okay?"
The baby seemed to understand what his mother said. Although he was a little reluctant, he still nodded obediently.
Xie Junyi looked at this scene and couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
He couldn't help but wonder: Is this cake really edible? What if it doesn't taste good?
Seeing Xie Junyi holding the fork but not taking a bite, Qiu Xiaona couldn't help but urge him, "Hurry up and eat! See how it tastes."
Xie Junyi took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and put the cake on the fork into his mouth.
He savored the texture and taste of the cake and was secretly surprised.
The cake tasted better than he had imagined. Although it was not perfect, it was enough to make him feel surprised and satisfied.
After seeing Xie Junyi eat the cake, Qiu Xiaona asked expectantly: "How is it? Does it taste good?"
Xie Junyi nodded and said with a smile: "Not bad."
After hearing this, Qiu Xiaona showed a satisfied smile on her face.
She immediately cut a piece of cake for herself, and then carefully put some cream on it for the baby to taste.
After tasting the cream, the baby showed a satisfied smile on his face, as if to say, "This is delicious!"
Xie Junyi thought, is he just a food taster?
When he looked up at Qiu Xiaona and the baby's happy smiles, he felt extremely warm and happy in his heart.
He knew that this was the life he wanted. Having Qiu Xiaona and the baby by his side was his greatest happiness and also his best wish.
