Chapter 529 - Anthony and Little Seven 10 (1/2)

They dumplings were cooked and smelled very fragrant by the time Anthony ended the call. Anthony was not good in making the dumplings but the fillings were fragrant, but…

The pot of dumplings looked disastrous.

Anthony was new at making it and he did not fold the sides of the dumplings properly. Therefore, the fillings came out when it was being cooked, making the pot of clear soup become meat soup. There were a lot of dumpling skins floating in the soap.

Anthony saw Eleven looking at the pot of dumplings in a speechless manner when he came out of the room. He thought that something had happened and went to take a look. He coughed lightly and finally knew why people liked to cough a few times out of the blue.

“The skin is too thin, it’s not my fault.” Anthony immediately reb.u.t.ted and looked at Eleven in an innocent manner.

Eleven shrugged the corner of her lips and teased him. “Did I say anything? Clumsy denial results in self-exposure.”

Anthony harrumphed. “I’m just saying the truth. The skin is so thin and will melt once cooked, how is it my fault?”

He stared at the dumplings in the pot ruthlessly.

It’s all your fault!

“You’re so childish.”

Why did the dumplings she made not fall apart? Could it be that the dumplings selectively despised him?

Anthony felt gloomy as he wanted to do well, in the end… it ended up like this. He had a sudden change of thought. “You are better than me at cooking dumplings and I’m sure there is a dish where I can cook it better than you. I will make it for you at night.”

“I will be full at night if I eat the dumplings now.”

“We can eat supper!”

Eleven was speechless…

She felt funny looking at Anthony’s confident face and thought that he was cute. Did he really cared that much? It seemed like this man’s confidence could not be trampled. She agreed to him casually and he smiled. Eleven smiled but did not say anything.

Eleven split the dumplings into two portion as she wanted to eat a more bland meal while Anthony wanted to add more seasoning. He watched as the plump dumplings were split into two portions and so were those failed products. He contemplated for a while and said. “Little Seven, you eat those good ones and leave the bad ones for me.”

She side-glanced him and curled up the corner of her lips. “Is there a need to separate it into such a clear line? Do you just want to eat the dumpling skin?”

“I’m scared that you are not full just by eating these.”

Eleven paused and laughed lightly, “Stupid!”

Anthony took a portion of the dumplings for her and put a lot of chilli and seasoning for his own portion. It looked vastly different from that of Eleven’s. Eleven ate one mouthful and felt that the taste was good as Anthony was good at making the fillings.

“By the way, I thought of something. How about you call your friends and ask them to clear the road, it should not be a difficult task.” Eleven said. She would usually bring along her communicator when she went out, but she wanted to go out and relax this time round. Ye Wei was not with her and her mood was not good, therefore she did not want to be interrupted and did not bring the communicator with her. Mrs. Kurt’s phone could only be used to call the people living nearby and could not call out, therefore she could only rely on Anthony’s phone.

“You were sick yesterday and I asked people to clear the road as I was afraid that you will get more sick. But, they just called to say that the snow was too big and it was too dangerous to clear the road as the road was cordoned off and they cannot even walk in. They can only clear after the snow has stopped.” Anthony lied without changing his expressions or even batting an eyelid. He did not prepare this lie beforehand yet he could say it so naturally, showing how he must had been used to doing this.

“How is it impossible to clear?” Eleven felt puzzled.

“The snow is too big and the roads are too slippery. It is dangerous as the car might flip.” Anthony said.

Eleven thought about about how there is a Top Terrorist Organization stronghold in Eastern Europe, and it should not be a problem for Chu Li to get people to clear the road. “Lend me your phone.”

Anthony paused and drank a spoon of soup. “Sure, please wait a while.”

He went into the room calmly and casually, as if it did not matter. Once he closed the door, Anthony quickly turned on his phone and took out the battery and took out another battery from the drawer before putting it in the phone. He put the working battery back into the bottom drawer and hid the charger. In order to make sure that everything was alright, he even tried it to make sure that the battery was not working before bringing out his phone.

“Her it is!” Anthony returned to his seat and continued to eat the dumplings and did not even looked up. Eleven pressed a few b.u.t.tons and looked at Anthony. She thought that the phone was not turned on and pressed the start b.u.t.ton, but it did not turned on.

“Anthony, why is it not responding?”

“Is it? It can’t be, I was using it to call just now.” Anthony took over the phone and pressed a few b.u.t.tons and looked shock. “Aiya, it has run out of battery.”

He looked at Eleven in a sorry manner and she shrugged. “Forget it.”

Anthony put his phone to a side and continued to eat the dumplings, but he was secretly laughing in his mind. He realized that she was gullible and she would not suspect whatever the people that she trusted said.

She had a pure personality, and her cold-looking face in the past was just a facade. He really suspected how she could survive for so many years and be at the top. How did she escape from all the plot against her?

Or was it that Ye Wei was really too smart and protected her well by clearing every obstacle. Therefore, Eleven could be what she was now.

She was like a transparent person that showed everything clearly to you. You could tell whether she was good or bad easily and she was like a bright pearl without any defects.

People like them would lose their pureness after a while, but she did not.

It was a miracle.

“Why are you staring at me?”

“I realize that Little Seven is beautiful.” Anthony said lightly. She was beautiful from the inside out and it was not because she was the apple of his eye. He was not the type of blind people that would think everything about her was good just because he liked her. He just felt that she was really good.

Meng Lianling never gave him that kind of impression.

“How many girls have you coaxed like this?” Eleven’s face was not red and her heart was not thumping. She bantered and brushed his words aside naturally.

“One.”

“Should I feel honored?”
