182 As Long as You’re Not Afraid that Chu Tianbao Will Destroy Your House

Cui Lingyi suddenly looked back and that scene entered Qu Lianghua’s swaying heart.

When he thought of the marriage his father had mentioned, his heart burned. He hurriedly avoided Cui Lingyi’s gaze and bowed. “My daughter is young and insensible. Thank you for taking care of her, Miss Cui.”

Everyone called her Madam Cui, but at this moment, he was calling her Miss Cui and treating her as an unmarried lady.

Cui Lingyi noticed this subtle difference and was surprised. She pretended to be cold and said, “Not really. We just want her to compensate for the flower cakes.”

Qu Lianghua could tell that Cui Lingyi was trying to keep her distance from him, and his heart sank.

He regretted not listening to his father.

After the petals were washed, Cui Lingyi and Bai Wutong brought the father and daughter back to the kitchen at home.

Cui Lingyi lived alone. The layout of her house was the same as that of Bai Wutong’s house.

This was the first time Qu Xin’er entered the kitchen. Her eyes were filled with curiosity, and she was not so resistant to making flower cakes anymore.

Cui Lingyi put on a small apron for her and brought her a low footstool to step on to see how they made flower cakes.

Qu Lianghua stood at the side like a wooden stake. When Bai Wutong glanced at him, she felt that he was quite awkward.

Qu Lianghua was more tenacious than he had imagined. When he saw Cui Lingyi kneading the dough and seemed to find it quite difficult, he took the initiative to say, “I’m stronger than you. Let me help you knead the dough. This way, we can be faster and help you make the flower cakes that my daughter destroyed.”

Granny Wang looked at Qu Lianghua and his daughter and frowned.

Bai Wutong had only suspected it just now, but now she was certain that Qu Lianghua was interested in Cui Lingyi.

However, it made sense. Cui Lingyi was such a beautiful and interesting woman. If she was a man, she would definitely not be able to help but like her.

Qu Lianghua looked at Cui Lingyi uneasily.

Cui Lingyi glanced at Bai Wutong, who could tell that she had no intention towards Qu Lianghua. She smiled and said, “Thank you for your kind intentions, Young Master Qu. The few of us are enough. The gourd in the garden is ready. Young Master Qu, you can go take a look.”

Qu Lianghua could tell that she was chasing him away. He touched his daughter, who was poking at the dough, and reminded her to be obedient before leaving the kitchen.

As soon as he left, the atmosphere in the entire kitchen became much lighter.

A faint smile appeared on Bai Wutong’s face. Cui Lingyi knew that she was secretly teasing her. She glared at her and pretended to be fierce. “If you continue looking, I’ll kidnap you and make you stay behind to do manual labor!”

When Qu Xin’er heard this, her hands trembled.

She chuckled. “I’m so afraid!” As she rolled the dough, she showed off her lovey-dovey relationship. “As long as you’re not afraid that Chu Tianbao will tear your house apart.”

Cui Lingyi was speechless.

She felt unhappy that she was suddenly shown off to.

The process of making flower cakes was complicated. The moment they were sent into the oven, everyone smiled in anticipation.

Qu Xin’er asked happily, “When can it be baked?”

Cui Lingyi smiled and said, “After an hour.”

Seeing that her small face had flour, Cui Lingyi reached out and wiped it for her.

Qu Xin’er lowered her head shyly. Suddenly, she felt a greater liking towards making flower cakes and Cui Lingyi.

They went to the garden to rest and realized that Qu Lianghua was still standing there looking at the gourd after so long.

When Qu Xin’er saw him, she rushed over and hugged him. “Father, I made many flower cakes! They’re especially delicious!”

Qu Lianghua had rarely seen Qu Xin’er smile so happily and brightly.

However, after staying with Cui Lingyi for the entire afternoon, there had been such a huge change. Qu Lianghua carried Qu Xin’er and involuntarily glanced at Cui Lingyi.

When his gaze suddenly met hers in the air, Qu Lianghua’s heart beat wildly. It was as if he had returned to the moment when he was young and unveiled his deceased wife’s red veil.

Cui Lingyi retracted her gaze coldly and did not look at him.

Qu Lianghua’s heart fell into a cold lake.

At that moment, a child’s giggle came from the garden.

Everyone looked sideways.

Chu Tianbao held Stinky, who had a big golden lock hanging, and flew to the front of Bai Wutong like a shadow.

Bai Wutong had been with Cui Lingyi all day.

Seeing that she was still not back, Chu Tianbao brought Stinky to look for her.

When Stinky saw Bai Wutong, he patted Chu Tianbao’s head excitedly. One could hear the crisp sound of the big golden lock hitting his head.

In order to become the most cool father and son, the two of them really tried hard.

Stinky called out in a childish voice, “Mother~ Mother~ Mother mother~”

The corners of Bai Wutong’s mouth curled up as she reached out to take Stinky, who was asking for a hug from above Chu Tianbao’s head.

Cui Lingyi pinched his chubby face and teased him. “Stinky, isn’t it time to lose weight?”

Stinky howled in dissatisfaction. When he glanced over and saw that it was Auntie Cui, who was as beautiful as a flower, he immediately laughed and reached out to touch her.

Cui Lingyi smiled. “Do you want me to hug you?”

Stinky extended his meaty hand even further. “Hug… hug…”

Cui Lingyi was conquered by Stinky’s cute little voice. She reached out to pick him up and rubbed his meaty face. She even sighed. “Stinky, why do I feel like you’ve become heavier again?”

When Qu Xin’er saw the warm scene in front of her, the smile on her face disappeared.

Compared to Stinky, they didn’t seem to like her at all.

Qu Lianghua did not notice his daughter’s thoughts. He thought that since she liked children so much, she would definitely treat Qu Xin’er very well in the future.

A rich fragrance came from the oven. The flower cakes were baked.

The color was tempting and the shape was exquisite. There was also a strong smell of flowers that made one’s appetite expand.

A smile finally appeared on Qu Xin’er’s face. She said proudly to Qu Lianghua, “Father, I made that.”

Qu Lianghua patted her head and praised, “Xin’er is awesome! It will definitely be delicious.”

Qu Xin’er looked at Cui Lingyi expectantly, but Cui Lingyi seemed a little cold. After wrapping a portion of the flower cakes in oil paper, she asked the servant to hand them to Qu Lianghua. “Take these flower cakes back to eat.” Then she smiled at Qu Xin’er and said, “Miss Xin’er, we’re even.”

She could have left here without worrying that Cui Lingyi would complain to Qu Yuanxian. It should have been a very happy thing for her. But Qu Xin’er met Cui Lingyi’s smile and was inexplicably disappointed.

As for why, she couldn’t explain. She could only hug Qu Lianghua and bury her head in his arms.

Qu Lianghua could tell that his daughter was reluctant to part with Cui Lingyi. On the way back, he said to her, “You can still play with Miss Cui tomorrow.”

Qu Xin’er suddenly looked up and said excitedly, “Really? Can I still make flower cakes with her?”

Qu Lianghua nodded. “But you have to be polite. If you were polite, Miss Cui would definitely not refuse you.”

He thought that if he could make Cui Lingyi fall in love with Qu Xin’er, she would definitely accept him.
