Free Web NovelChapter 1234: Chapter 1254: He Loves Everything She Makes
Xia Xiaonuan covered her mouth with her hand. Could this brand new necklace be the surprise Nangong Yaoling meant to give her?
Then, who was the one who gave her the necklace she’s been wearing all along?
Xia Xiaonuan was completely stunned, feeling utterly absurd for a moment!
Someone actually gave her two identical necklaces!
Xia Xiaonuan sat there, recalling the situation from that day.
On that day, she discovered the necklace and found it strange, thinking it was from Shaochen...
Shaochen...
As Xia Xiaonuan thought of this, she suddenly stood up from the bed.
She looked at the necklace in her hand.
So, one of these was from Shaochen! And the one she’s been wearing all along was also from Shaochen.
No wonder, when she wore this necklace to a party, Shaochen kept saying strange things, repeatedly asking if the necklace was from Nangong Yaoling.
But Zhong Li also wore this necklace?
Could it be that Shaochen gave Zhong Li one as well?
Thinking of this, Xia Xiaonuan felt completely confused.
What does Nan Mo mean? Why would he give her and Zhong Li the same necklace, and even sneak it into her clothes?
At that moment, a servant knocked on the door and said, "Young madam, the things you wanted have been bought."
Xia Xiaonuan hurriedly said, "I know."
Then she stood up and put the necklace safely in the drawer.
******
Xia Xiaonuan went to the kitchen, where the servant had already prepared the baking ingredients she wanted.
Nangong Yaoling had said that he would like anything as long as she made it.
So today, she planned to bake cookies for him.
Although she hadn’t baked since she found herself in this situation, she had printed out some recipes using the computer and printer in Nangong Yaoling’s study.
The servant beside her nervously said, "Young madam, you should go to your room and lie down. Let me help you."
Xia Xiaonuan quickly waved her hand and looked at the few maids standing at the door.
Smiling, she said, "No need, you all go out quickly. Today, the kitchen is my domain!"
The maids exchanged a glance and resignedly left.
Xia Xiaonuan worked for half the night, making bear-shaped cookies and cookies of various designs. But after several attempts, they all failed, either being overbaked or coming out in a mess.
On the last try, Xia Xiaonuan wore gloves and opened the oven.
She finally pulled out a tray of cookies that looked passably okay.
Smelling the strong fragrance of the cookies, Xia Xiaonuan smiled proudly.
She wondered whether Nangong Yaoling would like them.
While thinking, she heard the sound of the door opening outside.
Xia Xiaonuan was so startled that she almost dropped the cookies.
Some dishes on the dining cabinet fell to the ground with a loud crash.
Xia Xiaonuan clutched her chest and was about to tiptoe towards the kitchen door when suddenly the kitchen door was pushed open.
Nangong Yaoling appeared at the door in a suit.
His tie was a bit loose, and there seemed to be a complicated look in his eyes.
Xia Xiaonuan was stunned.
It took her a few seconds to gather her wits before she spoke, "You...you’re back?"
"What are you doing?" Nangong Yaoling looked at the girl in front of him, wearing a pink apron and with flour on her face. She had an oven mitt on her hand.
In front of her was a tray of freshly baked cookies.
Xia Xiaonuan said a bit nervously, "I...I’m baking cookies."
As she spoke, she quickly picked up the cookies in front of her, summoning the courage to step forward.
