Chapter 284: Chapter 284 Uncomfortable
Mrs. Lin didn’t dare to look more and, after saying goodbye to the old lady, she went down.
Seeing that there were no outsiders around, the old lady took out her mobile phone and watched something with a serious face.
Lu Shiran curiously leaned over and immediately burst into laughter, “Grandma, so you don’t know how to make it either, having to learn from a video.”
“You talk too much,” the old lady unceremoniously tapped her grandson on the head.
Lu Shiran covered his head, his voice filled with grievance, “So you’re allowed to set fires, but I can’t even light a lamp, double standards.”
The old lady snorted and earnestly wrote down the steps for making the cake.
Lu Shiran moved in front of Qiao Yun and whispered, “What’s the fun in making a cake? I’ll take you out to play instead?”
Qiao Yun glanced at the old lady who was diligently memorizing the steps and shook her head, “Making a cake is fun.”
Lu Shiran pursed his lips.
If it wasn’t for the bet he carelessly made with his grandma, he wouldn’t bother to step into the kitchen.
“What cake are we making?” Qiao Yun asked the old lady.
The old lady cleared her throat and chose the simplest one, “Let’s just make a chocolate mousse cake, it seems pretty easy.”

“Okay.”
After Qiao Yun agreed, she was about to start right away, but remembering what her grandma had said about doing it together, she said to Lu Shiran, “You come here, butter 40g, crushed Oreos 80g, mix and blend.”
Lu Shiran was stunned for a moment. Was this really about having a family fun while working together??
What kind of strange development was this?
Seeing Qiao Yun staring straight at him with her clear black-and-white eyes, Lu Shiran gave in, “Alright, cake-making it is, what’s so difficult about that.”
The old lady looked at her two grandchildren’s backs, her eyes crinkling with laughter.
“My good granddaughter, do you know how to make cakes?”
Qiao Yun was whipping the cream when she heard the old lady’s question. She turned around and said, “Mm, it’s quite simple.”
The old lady’s heart stuttered for a moment, then pressed on, “Do you often cook by yourself?”
Qiao Yun didn’t think much of it and said with an easy face, “Since I was four.”
Cooking by herself was a form of entertainment for her.
However, to the old lady’s ears, it was different; Qiao Yun was lost at three and had to start cooking at four.
It is often said that children from poor families take charge earlier, how hard life must have been.
A tender sorrow welled up in the old lady’s heart, and she looked at Qiao Yun with increasing pity.
Qiao Yun was utterly baffled and had no idea what the old lady was feeling sorry for.
The old lady composed herself and rolled up her sleeves, saying, “Grandma will do it with you.”
Qiao Yun, with a keen eye, noticed that the old lady was wearing the jade bracelet she had given her.
The old lady said affectionately, clutching the bracelet, “Grandma really likes the gift you gave.”
The jade was of good quality, and it was obvious that it must have cost a pretty penny.
As for the money Qiao Yun used to buy the jade, the old lady thought it was given by the Lu family.
“As long as you like it.” She was satisfied that the gift she gave was cherished by others.
Making a mousse cake wasn’t complicated, and since three people were working together, it was finished in less than half an hour. Then it just needed to be refrigerated for three hours before it could be eaten.
Lu Shiran was reluctant at first, but after they were done, he even took several pictures and posted them to his group to show off his accomplishment to his friends.
His friends commented: Lu Bro’s got a pure young heart.
Lu Shiran: Dammit, no, I’m not.
The old lady was going to take a nap, and Lu Shiran took the opportunity to lure Qiao Yun to the flower room, planning to compare answers for their midterm exam.
“I’ll grab some snacks, you sit first.”
Lu Shiran’s plan was nice, surrounded by flowers, studying while snacking, what a pleasure~
The happiness of a top student is something you slackers will never understand.
Qiao Yun obediently sat and waited for Lu Shiran to come back. It was during this time she saw Mrs. Lin looking panicked as she walked out.
