Dressed in an apron, Lu Yi placed down the cake, which was freshly out of the oven and, frankly, not very appealing. Even so, Yan Huan rested on the table and stared at it intently like a cat, as though she was afraid someone would steal a bite.
Lu Yi sliced off a piece of cake for Yan Huan, and then a smaller piece for Little Bean served in its bowl. Little Bean had already grown from a kitten to a large cat, and was now using a pot as its bowl.
Yan Huan ate a slice contently. She loved the sweet taste of cream. It was too tasty.
And all of the large cake belonged to her. How blissful.
Lu Yi wiped a smudge of cream from her face, thinking to himself that she was like a little girl. Let go of everything and forget what happened in your previous life, he thought, and live only in the moment. He doted her like a child, the child they may or may never have. At least he had her.
He rubbed her head. "Don't eat too much. It's fattening."
