Chapter 166: Poor Dun Dun
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Yayan went upstairs after having dinner with her family. She received a video call invitation from Huo Chenhuan as soon as she entered her room, and her eyes lit up.
“Have you eaten? Was the meal I prepared to your liking? Is there any dish you particularly enjoyed? I can make it for you next time.”
Huo Chenhuan gazed at Su Yayan’s sparkling eyes, and the corners of his lips curved subconsciously into a smile. “They are all delicious. I liked everything.”
“It seems that there are still not enough choices. I will make something else for you tomorrow. Ah, no – we’re meeting each other tomorrow. I think I will make you some snacks. Do you like sweet food?”
“Sweet food?” Huo Chenhuan was startled and nodded. “Yes, I like it.”
“Then I will make egg tarts and small cakes for you with a bottle of freshly ground hot soy milk. Drinking hot soy milk in the cold weather keeps you warm.”
“Sure.” Huo Chenhuan looked at her with expectant eyes and then asked in a low voice, “Did you prepare tea for Shaoyang today?”
“Did you see it and got jealous?” Su Yayan knew that she could not find any faults with Huo Chenhuan, save for his slight jealous streak, so she quickly explained. “I watched him deliver the meal on his own, and it was cold, so I thought I could help a little. To put it bluntly, I only gave him the tea because he is your subordinate. If it were anyone else, I would not even bother.”
Huo Chenhuan knew what she meant. Similarly, Gu Shaoyang also understood that she gave him the tea because of his Young Master. Ultimately, it was because she cared for Huo Chenhuan.
Therefore, Huo Chenhuan was not upset when he heard their banter just now. Instead, he cared more about…
“They said that you are an angel.”
Su Yayan was startled and smiled helplessly. “I am not.”
“You are.”
“Even if I am, I’m your angel. Moreover, it’s under the condition that you are here.”
As long as he was there, she would be an angel. If he was gone, angels would turn into demons.
Just like how he had behaved in her past life after her death, his tenderness died with her passing. He had antagonized the entire world to seek revenge for her.
Su Yayan knew that Huo Chenhuan could be fearless in front of everyone, but in front of her, he was always a little unconfident and worried that he would hurt her and was unworthy of her.
Su Yayan wanted to tell him that no one in this world was better than him and more worthy of herself than he.
However, it was useless, and she hoped to convey this to him through her actions to make him feel at ease.
Huo Chenhuan seemed to see through her intentions, and the expression on his face gradually softened. “Previously, you said that your grandfather wanted to see me. I’m free these few days.”
“That’s great! I will ask Grandpa tomorrow and arrange a time so our family can gather.”
Huo Chenhuan felt warm in his heart to hear her refer to them as a family, and he readily agreed. “Okay.”
Dun Dun, who was near Huo Chenhuan, seemed to have heard Su Yayan’s words. It ran over and barked at Su Yayan.
“Dun Dun? What happened to it?”
“It’s complaining that we hadn’t brought it to see its little fiancée in a while.”
Dun Dun yapped in excitement when it heard this, obviously agreeing with this statement.
Su Yayan was extremely busy during this period. She juggled many responsibilities, such as taking over the entertainment company’s affairs, doing her livestream, and helping her family recuperate their health. She had completely forgotten to ask Ling Xiaoqi what the situation was like over there.
“Look at my schedule! Dun Dun, are you still in your special period? But when I saw Hua Hua that day, she didn’t seem to pay much attention to you.. I’m afraid that she’s not interested in having babies with you so early. How about you let your dog daddy take you for neutering?”

The poor fur kid thought that this discussion was over, but its owner had suddenly brought it up again. It yapped at her heartbreakingly and firmly rejected this inhumane proposition.
Su Yayan felt amused by her dog’s expressive barks and laughed heartily. After a while, she said compassionately, “Oh, I just realized that if we neutered you now, even if Hua Hua is willing to have your babies in the future, you also won’t have a chance. Let’s forget it then.”
“Woof~” Dun Dun’s last yap was a mournful one. Combined with its sad little eyes, if one did not know what was going on, they would easily think that they were abusing the dog — cough, this was dog abuse!
“Okay, okay, let me ask your mother-in-law what’s her current situation like first, and I will take you to see your dream dog in two days. You must be good and not cause any trouble, okay? Otherwise, I won’t take you there, are you clear?”
Dun Dun barked again and lay under the table obediently. It looked at her eagerly, as if it was saying, ‘I am good, you have to keep your promise!’
Su Yayan really had no idea what to do with this clown and instead urged Huo Chenhuan. “Take care of our fur kid, okay? I’ll see you tomorrow.”
“See you tomorrow.”
The next day, Su Yayan had prepared the snacks she had agreed to make for Huo Chenhuan the day before.
The egg tart filling was not complicated to make. As long as you mixed according to the proportions, it would be fine. The real challenge was the production of egg tarts crust, which was very complicated and time-consuming.
Aunt Li had become accustomed to the Eldest Young Mistress running to the kitchen when she had nothing to do. Moreover, she always made meals that she had never seen before, but they were unusually fragrant.
At first, Aunt Li was a little worried if her job was at stake because her Young Mistress’s cooking was so good.
Later, when she saw that several of the masters in the family did not bring up the matter and ate her cooking when Su Yayan did not cook, she gradually felt relieved.
She saw Su Yayan pacing around in the kitchen as if she was looking for something. She could not help stepping forward and asking, “Young Mistress, are you looking for something?”
“Do we have a blender in our house?”
“We have one, but it is not used very often, so it’s kept in a corner. I can find it for you.”
The food cooked at home mainly consisted of stir-fried dishes, so the blender was quite useless. It was used only occasionally when squeezing juice. No wonder it was thrown into the corner and could not be found.
“Is Young Mistress going to make juice today?” Aunt Li asked curiously as she took the blender out.
“No, I want to make some egg tarts and cake.”
“Egg tarts and cake?” It was another type of food she had not heard of.
Seeing Aunt Li’s surprise, Su Yayan smiled and said, “I will make more later so that you all can try.”
“Okay, then I’ll go out first. If Young Mistress needs any help, you can call me.”
Most chefs did not like being watched by others when they cooked, so Aunt Li tactfully retreated away.
“Mm.”
Su Yayan found the high and low-gluten flour and spent nearly an hour making dozens of egg tarts before putting the egg tarts in the oven to bake for ten minutes.
After putting the egg tarts in the oven, Su Yayan started making a small cake.
The cake base was easy to make. After Su Yayan had iced the cake, she tried to paint a cute version of Huo Chenhuan on the cake but found that the difficulty level was high, and the finished product was not particularly good-looking.
In the end, she had to find an alternative.. She drew a lot of hearts and roses on the cake edge and finally added a puppy next to these flowers before she considered herself done.
