Chapter 316 - Xian Zihao Stealing Something (2/2)

Jiang Ruolan immediately smiled and happily took them. She walked quickly to the table. Without using chopsticks, she grabbed one with her hand and inserted it into her mouth. ”Oh, it tastes pretty good!”

Having said that, she looked back at Xian Zihao with a warm smile as spring and as bright as the sun.

Jiang Ruolan could not help but ask in surprise, ”You did this?”

Without waiting for his answer, she picked up another dumpling and stuffed it into her mouth. ”If you want to make dumplings, just tell me. Do you really need to ask for grandpa's help? Even if you want to give me a surprise, you shouldn't do it so late.”

Xian Zihao ignored her blubbering and went to the closet. He grabbed a set of clothes and went to take a shower.

When he came out, Jiang Ruolan had finished the plate of dumplings, but it seemed like she had not eaten enough and was waiting for him to make another plate for her.

”You haven't eaten your fill?” he asked.

Although Jiang Ruolan did not feel that she had eaten enough, she was still satisfied with her meal. She got up from the bed and smiled coquettishly at him, ”Is there anything else? Did you really make these dumplings? How much did you make?”

Xian Zihao glanced at her before he took the plate and said calmly, ”I stole it.”

Jiang Ruolan's mouth twitched. ”You stole it?”

The dignified and elegant President Xian had just stolen dumplings that had just been cooked in the middle of the night? Imagine what people's reactions were when they heard this.

Sigh, what a pity. President Xian wasn't very good at stealing. How could he only steal one kind of filling? However, thinking about how he actually stole dumplings, Jiang Ruolan really didn't dare to imagine that scene.

Jiang Ruolan then pursed her lips and stood in front of him. She looked at his serious expression and then looked at the plate in his hand. She suddenly couldn't hold it in anymore. She turned her back to him, smiling so hard that her shoulders trembled.

Only when she had laughed enough did she turn around. Seeing Xian Zihao's solemn face, she forced a smile and asked, ”Where did you steal it? Xian Resident is in the suburbs. There's no store near this place.”

Xian Zihao glanced at her. ”If you want to eat, then come with me.”

Jiang Ruolan hurriedly followed him out. This was the first time she stole something in her life, and it was also the first time she stole dumplings with Xian Zihao on New Year's Eve. Jiang Ruolan slowly walked forward with light steps.

However, compared to her sneaking action, Xian Zihao was more relaxed and at ease. He slowly walked down the stairs, and when he caught a glimpse of Jiang Ruolan's thief demeanor, the corners of his eyes couldn't help but twitch.

Two or three minutes later, the two of them successfully made their way into the Xian Residence's kitchen. The kitchen was very large. Usually, Nanny Cheng and four or five servants would be cooking here together.

Jiang Ruolan smelled the fragrance and could not help but ask softly, ”Do people in H City often eat dumplings? Why would there be one now when there isn't in the New Year's Eve dinner?”

”Grandpa was in the northern troop when he was young and has been used to eating these things for decades. However, he only ate dumplings at the beginning of the year. Nanny Cheng and the others had packed them in the refrigerator and planned to cook them in the morning.” Xian Zihao said indifferently.

Perhaps everyone would have some deep-rooted and unforgettable hope when they were young. For Jiang Ruolan, when she and Jiang Yijun were at Jiang Family, they could only watch the family of three happily eat dumplings on New Year's Eve. At that time, she only had one simple wish, and that was to eat a plate of dumplings during New Year's Eve every year.

Later, she packed her bag and ran away. During those years, she was always independent, eating and dressing with the little money she earned from hard work, and the expectations gradually settled down in her heart. It was enough for her to eat what she got and she had never expected anyone to pity her simple, foolish childhood desires.

But who would have thought that a few years later, someone would fulfill her wish? Xian Zihao would actually go as far as to steal a plate of dumplings for her.

Jiang Ruolan should have been moved to tears, but she was grinning like a child. She didn't even open her mouth to say a word of thanks.
