Chapter 201: Chapter 108 You’re Hot and You’re Cold_2 Chapter 201: Chapter 108 You’re Hot and You’re Cold_2 “A unique design is sure to make a splash.”

Yuwan was embarrassed by the praise, but somehow she felt less resistant to this family.

Meanwhile, Nongzhang was skilled at making cake bases, but not as good at icing, so she iced diligently, trying to make each flower perfect. The result was quite impressive.

When Yuwan arrived in the evening, she had just handed the cake to Mrs. Zhu.

Mrs. Zhu, looking quite apologetic, said, “I didn’t know Nongzhang made a cake too, I’m really sorry, Yuwan, would you be okay with serving both cakes together?”

But as Yuwan was a professional, and her icing was exquisite, she considered that her cake, once presented, might overshadow Nongzhang’s and make her effort seem pale in comparison:

“Of course, why not present Miss Zhu’s cake first? Grandma Zhu will surely be thrilled to see a cake made by her own granddaughter, and we can serve mine afterwards.”

Being a stepmother is tough, and Yuwan had no intention of making things difficult for others.

Mrs. Zhu breathed a huge sigh of relief, “Yuwan, you are truly generous and considerate. Qin doesn’t know how you were taught, and I really want to learn from you.”

Zhao Qin smiled, “It’s just a matter of yielding the cake spotlight. Yuwan isn’t trying to steal the limelight, she just wants to express her sentiments to the elder lady. As long as the thought is there, that’s enough.”

Even if her cake was served later, it would not cede the spotlight—Yuwan’s cake was sure to be more beautiful than Nongzhang’s.

At that moment, Mrs. Zhu was genuinely envious.

The Wen Family was indeed distinguished, with such good upbringing.

At the table, seeing her cake served first made Nongzhang quite pleased with herself.

She intentionally said to Grandma Zhu, “Grandma, I made this cake.”

Zhu Yaoqing glanced at the plain-looking cake and nodded, “It’s the thought that counts.”

Everyone was somewhat surprised that Nongzhang, who usually acted spoiled and lazy, had actually made a cake by herself.

Grandma Zhu rarely praised anyone, so when Nongzhang heard this compliment, it was worth the seven to eight hours of cake making.

Yuwan, seated next to Nongzhang, had thoughts but didn’t show them.

Nongzhang was still basking in her pride when suddenly a child slapped his hand on the cake, ruining the icing Nongzhang had spent hours on.

The child, grabbing cake, ran after his playmates:

“See if I don’t smash you!”

A playmate also grabbed a piece as he passed by the cake, making such a mess that it was inedible, and they ran around the banquet hall yelling, “I’ll smash you first, don’t run!”

Everything happened too fast for the Zhu Family to prevent it—the cake was completely wrecked by the group of kids.

Nongzhang was so shocked that she almost stood up.

Yuwan glanced her way. Feeling someone looking at her, Nongzhang looked back and realized that Yuwan’s gaze was mocking.

And the cake was already a messy disaster in the blink of an eye.

Mrs. Zhu, worried that the old lady would be upset, didn’t anticipate Nongzhang’s displeasure and quickly tried to appease her with a smile, “Yuwan also made a cake, we’ll bring it up later.”

Grandma Zhu didn’t care much for the ruined cake, but hearing that Yuwan had made another one, a smile appeared in her eyes, and she brushed off the incident with the destroyed cake with a laugh.

Watching the children throwing and catching, Nongzhang realized her miscalculation.

Her cake was now being toyed with, while Yuwan’s cake would surely be cut and shared, allowing everyone to taste it. Her own cake had turned into a disgusting mush.

These damn kids, why are they so mischievous?

Yuwan turned back with a smile, but from the corner of her eye, she noticed Nongzhang’s eyes were red.

Looking at the children playing with the cake, she suddenly understood.

If one was not a professional, making this cake would have taken a lot of time. Seeing something one had worked on so diligently turned into a plaything before anyone had even tasted it would upset anyone.

Suddenly, Yuwan grasped Nongzhang’s hand.

Nongzhang instinctively flinched, not wanting her distress to be seen, forcefully holding back tears and feeling an even stronger disdain for the smug Yuwan.

“Do we still have materials to make another cake?” Yuwan suddenly asked.

Nongzhang replied with disgust, “Yes, what about it?”

Yuwan stood up without hesitation, “Let’s go downstairs and make another one together.”

Even though her moment to shine was at hand, Yuwan suggested making a new cake with her. Nongzhang was taken aback and asked in astonishment, “…What?”

Without hesitation, Yuwan said softly, “Let’s go.”

She whispered to Mrs. Zhu beside her, “Auntie, the cake got ruined. I’ll go down with Nongzhang to make another one, don’t serve mine yet.”
