Chapter 170: Frenemies

Su Yayan held the cup with the soymilk for a while, until her hands were warmed up, then she started pestering Huo Chenhuan to eat.

“Look at the egg tart! I’ve baked it very early in the day now, so it might be a little cold, and its tart may not be as crispy anymore.”

Huo Chenhuan reached out for the delectable-looking egg tart and took a bite.

The slightly cool tart was a little chewy, the golden-colored custard was soft and fragrant, just like the person beside him.

“It’s really good.”

“I’m glad you liked it.” Su Yayan breathed a sigh of relief. She turned around and whipped out a delicate little cake. “I wanted to draw the two of us and Dun Dun, but it was harder than I thought. I’ll practice more, and when it’s our wedding day, I’ll make a huge cake to put as the centerpiece in the mansion hall, what do you say?”

Huo Chenhuan’s eyes sparkled. “Sounds good.”

Su Yayan was relieved that Huo Chenhuan was still considered the two desserts acceptable. She passed another prepared portion to Yu Ziyan.

“I had limited time, and cake baking’s a little complicated, so I’ve only made two — one for my family, one for your Young Master. Even so, I’ve made a pretty big batch of egg tarts, so here you go, go share with the others so they could have a taste.”

Yu Ziyan, who was driving upfront was so moved he nearly burst into tears, and he instantly forgot how he was ‘abused’ before this. He quickly took over the container handed over by Su Yayan when the car was on hiatus.

“Thank you, Ms. Su, I’ll be sure to share with the rest.”

As he was saying it, he stole glances at Huo Chenhuan. He saw how Huo Chenhuan did not react unpleasantly, so Yu Ziyan happily placed the container of egg tarts on the empty space before him.

He even peeked several times at the container before he continued driving. Those that did not know what had happened might think that he was staring at his ideal life partner!

After reaching the hospital, Huo Chenhuan accompanied Su Yayan as she headed up, while Yu Ziyan stayed waiting downstairs.

Right after the pair left, Yu Ziyan immediately shot a 360-degree angle video of the egg tarts trying his best to capture its deliciousness on screen.

After he was done with the video, Yu Ziyan took some time to look to his heart’s content before sending it to a group of the three of them. He gleefully asked, “Guess what this is?”

Zuo Yanbai and Gu Shaoyang were both at the office, but since their worktime was pretty flexible, they replied almost immediately.

ArdentValleyRisingSun* (TN: This is a wordplay on Gu Shaoyang’s name since in Chinese, Gu means valley, and Yang means sun): [Sh*t! What is this ultimate cutiepie, no, I mean ultimate cutie-tart? I’ll spare your life if you surrender it!]

AsStillAsPineAndCypress* (TN: This is a wordplay on Zuo Yanbai’s name in Chinese. Bai means cypress): [This is… Edible?]

FishermanZiYan* (TN: Fisherman is a wordplay on Yu Ziyan’s surname, Yu, which has the same pronunciation as fisherman in Chinese.): [Hehehe, this was so worth me fighting for a chance to be an escort today! Young Madam made snacks and drinks for Young Master, and she made some for us too! How sweet, how kind of her! Sob sob, I’m moved to tears.]

ArdentValleyRisingSun: [(Envy makes me ugly.jpg) (Envy makes me cry.jpg) (Envy plasmolyzed me.jpg) (bawling.jpg) Why wasn’t I the one that went today?!]

AsStillAsPineAndCypress: [Us? Does this mean we get a share too?]

FishermanZiYan: [Only for me and Shaoyang, none for you!]

ArdentValleyRisingSun: [Exactly, none for you! It all belongs to Ziyan and I (blessed.jpg)]

AsStillAsPineAndCypress: [… you guys are blatantly abusing power for your personal gains, you’re pocketing public property.]

FishermanZiYan: [So what if we are? Young Madam said that this was for us to have a taste, and she didn’t specify who. She gave this to me, so I should have total say in this!]

ArdentValleyRisingSun: [True that! Traitors have no right to speak. F*ck off! (I know I’m right.jpg)]

AsStillAsPineAndCypress: […] All he did was eat a meal without them, did they really have to hold a grudge for so long?
