Zhao Lan couldnt bear to wake her daughter again, but who would have thought that Bai Zhis few minutes sleep will take half an hour.

And so, Hu Feng came again. But this time, he didnt knock on the door. He stood outside and shouted: Zhier if you promised to make dumplings to a person, shouldnt you be working on it now?

Bai Zhi suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Zhao Lan who was sitting on the side, then busily asked: What time is it now?

Zhao Lan looked at the sunlight outside the small window. The sun was no longer as strong as the afternoon: Its around 3-5 in the afternoon, did you really promise to make dumplings for Hu Feng?

Bai Zhi sat up and answered. Yes, he saved my life earlier. In order to repay him, I promised to make dumplings for dinner. I didnt expect to overslept.

Zhao Lan said: Since you made a promise, get up now. It takes a lot of time to make dumplings. You should prepare early.

The next second, Hu Fengs voice rang outside again. The embarrassment Bai Zhi had forgotten earlier popped up in her mind again. However, she could only sigh, helplessly get out from the bed and walked to the door. Bai Zhi opened the door and faced Hu Feng: Dont shout, I woke up. You go back first, I will just wash my face.

Bai Zhi said as if nothing happened. She looked as calm as before, but Hu Feng still noticed a trace of embarrassment in her eyes.

Hu Fengs lips slightly curved into a smile, but he didnt say anything. He just turned around and left.

Bai Zhi took the wet towel to Zhao Lan and indiscriminately wiped her face, then sighed: If I could take back my words by pouring out this water, it would be great.

Zhao Lan was puzzled, so she asked: What silly things are you saying? How can you take back words by pouring out water?

Bai Zhi handed the wet towel back to her mother and released another sigh: Im just saying it, if I cant take it back, then I cant, no need to pour it out!

Looking at Bai Zhis departing back, Zhao Lan couldnt help but say: Whats wrong with this child? How come she is so strange?

In the front yard of the Hu Family, Hu Feng poured flour in the pot. The amount of flour he poured was more than the amount from the last time.

Bai Zhi walked inside the kitchen as if nothing happened. She took the pot on Hu Fengs hand and pointed her finger to the leeks and potatoes in the corner, then said: You wash the vegetables, I will knead the dough.

Hu Feng pointed his finger over the stone stove: Those vegetables have already been washed, the rest are stocks. He specifically bought a lot more today, so that the rest can be eaten tomorrow.

Bai Zhi scoop water and began to prepare the dough. She said without turning her head: Then, cut them the same way I did last time. Hu Feng shook his head: I wont cut. He will chop and remove the bones to chicken, but he will not cut vegetables

Bai Zhi looked at Hu Feng with full of disdain in her eyes: What else could I expect you to do? You cant even cut leeks.

Hu Feng shrugged his shoulders and said: Theres no law saying I should cut leeks, right?

Bai Zhi pointed her finger next to the small cupboard: The eggs are there, go get them.

Hu Feng took 2 eggs from the small cupboard and asked: Is 2 enough?

Of course, its not enough, its not enough for a big man like you, what more to 5 people. Bai Zhi said as if she was not embarrassed by earlier events.

Hu Fengs face on the other hand always has this faint smile. This smile was unnoticeable but real.

Unfortunately, Bai Zhi was concentrating on what shes doing, so she never had noticed it.
