AS the boy walked towards them, he looked at Astrid with curiosity. When he stood in front of Astrid, he added to what he said earlier, "You don't look like someone who knows how to cook?"
Astrid smiled and crouched down so he and the boy could be at eye level. "Then, what does young master think someone who knows how to cook looks like?"
"I don't know. But they won't be as pretty as you."
Astrid chuckled at such an innocently child-like response. "Well, there's a saying that 'one should not judge a book by its cover'. The same applies to people. One's ability should not be judged by their appearance. Don't you think so as well, young master?"
"Then what criteria should I judge them by?" the boy asked curiously. His turquoise eyes were filled with interest. As if he liked how Astrid explained things to him instead of treating him like a child who didn't know anything.
