Magic Chef Of Ice And Fire

MCIF Chapter 19.2

Chapter 19.2 – The Wise Luo Ruo

Nian Bing acted as if he had not seen Xue Jing’s stare. As before, he looked into Luo Rou’s eyes, blue as his own. “May I have the honor of assisting you?”

Although her heart was filled with suspicion, Luo Ruo lived up to the title of Wise Girl. In these circumstances, she smiled slightly and said, “Just now, when Jing Jing greeted you, I will take her place in apologizing to the young lord. There are no status based divisions at Luo Rou’s birthday feast. Everyone who comes is a guest; all are Luo Rou’s friends. Please, young lord.” While saying this, she took the cake knife in her hand and passed it to Nian Bing.

A simple sentence immediately resolved the awkward atmosphere. Nian Bing walked up to Luo Rou’s side. To her, he gave a small nod. He said, “If the misses would please step back, in order to avoid cream splattering on you.”

Luo Rou cast a glance at Nian Bing, and stepped back together with Long Ling and Xue Jing. Nian Bing’s hand gripped the knife handle. Even though it was a different knife, because of his experience with knives, he could clearly perceive the cake knife’s aura. He shot a glance at the dining cart’s plates. Yan Feng came to his side and passed the first plate into his hands. Nian Bing smiled lightly, saying, “This first piece, is naturally for today’s birthday girl, Miss Wise Girl.”

A light flashed. Besides Yan Feng at Nian Bing’s side, no one could clearly see what sort of hand movements he did. A slice of cake had already appeared neatly on the plate. What was even more fantastic was that no cream could be seen on the knife. On the leftover cake, the incision was extremely neat with not even a little bit of cream touching it. Nian Bing took the plate to give to the Wise Girl behind him. “This piece of cake will be Miss Wise Girl’s birthday present from me.”

Even if the Wise Girl was brilliant, she, too, could not understand Nian Bing’s intentions. Long Ling next to her could not help but ask, “This is obviously Ruo’er’s household’s cake, how can it be a present you gave?”

Nian Bing smiled slightly and said, “Miss Wise Girl, just taste and see, this is a one of a kind slice of cake.”

Luo Rou’s and Nian Bing’s gazes met. She was surprised to discover that she could not see through the abnormal, handsome male in front of her. She took a spoon from a servant at the side. She scooped a small piece of the cake and put in her mouth. While she was scooping, she discovered that the cake seemed to have some hardness. The cake entered her mouth, and Luo Rou could not help but exclaim in surprise, “How cold!” The originally soft cake had many distinguishably sweet scents. It had turned into an icy clear cream when it entered her mouth. The sweet, refreshing scent immediately filled her mouth and nose. It made Luo Ruo’s spirit shake. Her pale, smart face had flushed red.

Nian Bing gave a little smile, saying, “How is it?” Ice Magic was put into the cake, it seemed simple, but the heat control was extremely important. If the ice element was too little, the flavor of the cake would be somewhat off. If too much, then the cake would become an inedible lump of ice. It required precise use at the perfect spot. Maybe only Nian Bing, who was a Magic Chef, could make this.

Luo Rou’s eyes glittered. To Nian Bing, she nodded her head and said, “Thank you very much, young lord. Luo Rou is very pleased with this present. It has already been long since there was something that could make me want to eat more than a few bites. I don’t know if it is possible for the young lord to let my two sisters try this deliciousness too?”

The nobles at the event naturally did not understand the meaning of their conversation, but Luo Rou’s words did not seem to be fake. In a moment, they could not help but cast their curious stares at Nian Bing.
