Chapter 85  : Magic

Fang Liu divided the dough into small pieces after entrusting the most laborious task to Mo Yu. The children with rolling pins had already started flattening the dough. They skillfully rolled the small amounts of dough into thick yet even dumpling wrappers. Their movements were quick yet tidy.

Fang Liu wrapped the fillings with the dumpling wrappers. She had seen Ah Yu make dumplings at home, and although she had never tried to do it herself, she had very steady hands. Soon after, she successfully wrapped the dumplings.

Meanwhile, Mo Yu had also kneaded some dough to make noodles. But there was some flour on his face, making his elegant demeanor seem comical.

Fang Liu held back her laughter and told Mo Yu not to move. Then, she took a tissue and wiped the flour off Mo Yu’s face.

Mo Yu was very tall, so the petite Fang Liu had to stand on the tip of her toes to wipe the flour off his face.

Fang Liu’s expression was solemn, and the movements of her hands were gentle. The sunlight that came in from the window shone on her face, making her glow in a magnificent golden hue. She resembled an angel who descended from the heavens. Fang Liu was so beautiful that it was soul-stirring.

Mo Yu’s gaze was fixed on Fang Liu. Seeing that it was somewhat strenuous for his wife to stand on her toes, Mo Yu put one hand on the table and bent down slightly, instantly closing the distance between them.

Their interaction was extremely intimate. Fang Liu’s face immediately turned red, and she hurriedly withdrew her hand. “T-There, I’m done now.

Mo Yu curled his lips into a smile. “You’re just wiping my face. Why is your face so red?”

‘Well, it’s because you unexpectedly came so close to me!’ Fang Liu yelled in her heart.

They were surrounded by so many people, which made Fang Liu feel even more embarrassed.

The film crew was forced to witness such public displays of affection. They felt a subtle bitterness in their hearts.

The children did not understand the affection between a man and a woman. They only felt that the Yu-Liu duo looked good together. They resembled characters that came straight out of a Japanese manga.

The children who could not help prepare the food raised their heads and stared earnestly at the couple.

“Why is Big Brother’s hand on Big Sister’s waist? Why is Big Sister blushing?”

Fang Liu looked at Mo Yu’s hand and whispered anxiously, “What are you doing? There are children watching.”

Mo Yu smiled, looked at the group of little kids, and said, “Can I perform a magic trick for you guys?”

When the children heard that Mo Yu would perform a magic trick, they immediately became excited and agreed, “Yes, please!”

Mo Yu continues, “Then close your eyes and quietly count to five. When you reach the number five, open your eyes, and you will see something spectacular!”

The children looked at each other, unable to hide their anticipation and excitement.

“All right, close your eyes, everyone!” Mo Yu yelled playfully. The group of children proceeded to close their eyes.

Fang Liu also looked at Mo Yu curiously.

‘Does Mo Yu really know how to do magic tricks?’

Mo Yu was right in front of Fang Liu in the blink of an eye. He lowered his head and kissed Fang Liu’s soft and tender lips.

Fang Liu’s heart was about to jump right out of her chest when she realized that Mo Yu had kissed her in front of so many people.

“Y-You…” Before Fang Liu could properly react, Mo Yu smiled devilishly. “I know it’s inappropriate to kiss you in front of children, so I asked them to close their eyes.”

Fang Liu’s face was flaming red. “Stop quibbling!”

The film crew saw this level of affection was inappropriate for children. They mumbled amongst themselves, “All right, that’s enough mushiness for me.”

Meanwhile, the children continued, “...three, four, five!” The little kid who chanted opened his eyes when he counted to five. The other children also finished counting and opened their eyes. They were curious to see if Mo Yu had completed his magic trick.

Fang Liu turned her head and stared at Mo Yu.

She wanted to see what kind of magic trick Mo Yu would perform, and if it turned out that he was lying to the little children, she would laugh at him.

Mo Yu pursed his lips and smiled. His pair of almond-shaped eyes became even more charming because of his gentle smile.

Mo Yu reached out his hand, and a small transparent bottle appeared in his hand. There were many seed-like objects in the bottle. He did not know what they were.

“Do you know what these are?”

The children widened their eyes.

Mo Yu said with a serious expression, “A garden fairy gave me this bottle just now. There are many seeds in this bottle. The garden fairy told me that a flower would grow if a child worked hard.. The flowers that grow from these seeds are magical and can bring good fortune to those who work hard.
