Chapter 1869 - Reunion (8) (1/2)
Chapter 1869 “Reunion (8)”
“This is the laurel cake Mother made for me. Auntie used a special spell to preserve it for me…. I, I’ll give you this piece to eat.” His eyes were full of reluctance when trying to move away from the pastry.
Seeing the sort of face Jin Tian was making, Ji Song immediately shook her head: “No, you eat it.”
“No Big Sister, you take it. Once Mother takes a break, she will make more for me.” Despite saying that, the drooling saliva coming out of his mouth said it all – that a person’s words are not always the truth.
In reality, even if Bai Yan does make more cake for him it wouldn’t matter. Di Xiao Wan the demon princess would immediately confiscate everything to save for later. The reasoning? It’s because the aunt was afraid the boy would get a tooth cavity from eating so many sugary sweets. This laurel cake was his portion for the day, meaning he won’t get any more until tomorrow.
Seeing how determined the boy was about giving this gift, Ji Song knew it was better to accept it. Placing the cake to her mouth, the girl takes a small bite to discover the wonders of this fantastic object. It’s sweet and smooth to the tongue, an experience she’s never encountered before in the Monarch Manor. This was truly delicious!
“Big Sister, how is it?” Jin Tian asks with hopeful light in those eyes.
Flushing red from the attention, Ji Song murmurs her answer: “It’s delicious…”
“Really?” Jumping with glee, “Then can you play with me later? I don’t have any company here in the Demon Realm.”
Meeting the boy’s gaze for the first time since their meeting, Ji Song found herself unable to reject him. “Okay.”
First reason being that she already accepted his gift so it’s only proper she returns the favor. The second being she doesn’t want to be a shut-in anymore!
“That’s awesome!” Jin Tian became a beet red due to the excitement.
This laurel cake is worth it, at least now this big sister will play with me….
“Let’s go, I will show you around.” Without ulterior motive, Jin Tian smoothly winded his hand around Song’s and toddled the way forward towards the palace.
