At dawn, she stood in Bai Xiao's kitchen Tang Mi looked at the ripe, fragrant ested, ”How about ?”
”Sure” Bai Xiao nodded in agreement

”We're using a round piping tip; pipe out the batter in the shape of ladyfingers and two spiral bases” Seeing that she was done with the base of the cake, Tang Mi placed it into the oven She then continued on to the next step ”You can os and blend them into puree”
”Okay”
Tang Mi watched Bai Xiaoout re was done, she brought out the cooled cake base ”Brush the bottom and sides with syrup, the thicker the better Then, evenly io wine Afterward, pour the crèside the o chunks and divide it in two”
She then topped it with another layer of the cake base andcrèo Charlotte Cake creation then entered its final stages ”Serator to cool and set Afterward, decorate the surface with n it yourself Ah, but don't forget to layer the top with o puree”
Bai Xiao pondered for a ood?”
”Mn, but cut the slices a bit thinner”
While Bai Xiao decorated the cake, Yu Xin had just tried on his last set of clothes in front of the mirror
Dressed in a casual white button-up and khaki pants, nine-tenths length, Yu Xin carefully brushed his bangs to the side and then put on a slate-colored floral print jacket He smiled at himself in the mirror ”How can I be so handsome?”
Happily, he thought about going i so handsome and picked up his phone as he headed downstairs His phone just happened to ring as he put on his shoes Yu Xin glanced at the caller's nahtly
Bai Xiao? What was she calling about?
He thought for a moment and quirked his lips as he answered ”Xiao Xiao, what's the matter?”
Bai Xiao froze on the other end
Yu Xin repeated his question Bai Xiao finally regained a bit of mental clarity at this ”That, today is your birthday Iif you are free?”
Yu Xin said, ”I apologize I aht not have any time to come over”
Bai Xiao was a bit disappointed as she replied, ”Are you at work? I can deliver it to you Otherwise, it'll be wasting theMi and I placed into it”
Upon hearing Tang Mi's naether with Sweetheart?”
Stunned, Bai Xiao asked, ”Are you talking about Tang Mi? She's at ht me how to make the cake”
Yu Xin sht now”
Tang Mi saw Bai Xiao hang up and inquired, ”Hoas it? What did CEO Yu say?”
Bai Xiao sht now”
”That's good” After she spoke, Tang Mi saw a bit of confusion on Bai Xiao's face, so she asked, ”What's wrong?”
”Mn…” Bai Xiao deliberated for a ”
Tang Mi did not question further after getting this response She walked over to the living roooodbye to Bai Xiao ”Then I'll take my leave”
”You won't wait until Yu Yi arrives?”
”No, I have an appointment at lunch I'll make it in time if I leave now”
”Alright” Bai Xiao did not urge her to stay again and escorted Tang Mi to the door ”I'll send you the tuition fee later”
”Okay, thanks” Tang Mi waved at her before walking aith her bag
Twenty minutes later, Yu Xin arrived at Bai Xiao's place When Bai Xiao heard the doorbell, she sped over to the door
When she opened the door, she was greeted with the sight of a casually dressed Yu Xin, causing her to stare in astonishment
Yu Xin smiled at her and asked, ”Where's Sweetheart?”
Bai Xiao took a , ”She just left”
Yu Xin frowned ”Left? Did you knohere she went?”
”I heard she had an appointment to meet up with a university senior brother for lunch”
Yu Xin narrowed his eyes University senior brother? Lin Che?
Hehe
He turned and began walking in the direction of his car Bai Xiao called out to stop hiave it to hiht as well take the cake Happy birthday”
Yu Xin glanced at it and then accepted the offered cake ”Thank you”
”You're welcome” Bai Xiao looked at him with a question in her eyes, but Yu Xin simply carried the cake back to his car and actually did not drop it to the ground
After starting his car, he connected his phone to the bluetooth system and dialed a number
Tang Mi and Lin Che's appointment was at noon When she arrived at eleven-forty, Lin Che was already waiting in the restaurant
”This restaurant changed chefs Blumer Quentin, have you heard of him? I previously wanted to invite you to eat here” Lin Che sat across fro tenderly at her
Tang Mi simply replied noncommittally, which Lin Che did not take offense to and instead began looking for other conversation topics Tang Mi's phone began to vibrate in her bag, causing her to take it out and nearly choke upon seeing the caller's identity
CEO Yu had always contacted her through Luo Hao, so for him to directly call her…
”Sweetheart, where are you?”
Tang Mi: ”…”
She shot a glance at Lin Che before turning slightly away as she whispered, ”I aht now What do you need?”
”And who are you eating lunch with?”
Yu Xin's voice did not sound particularly happy Tang Mi sighed at her o to Bai Xiao's place?”
…Wait, did he go to Bai Xiao's place?
”I already left Where are you? I' to find you”
Tang Mi: ”…”
”If I can't find you, I'll have no choice but to head to work”
