Chapter 278: Chapter 278: Cherry Curd Flavored Candy Chapter 278: Chapter 278: Cherry Curd Flavored Candy Hua Jinyan wanted to lead Little Taotie away by the hand, but Little Taotie shook off his hand and ran to Red Garnt Ah Piao. Looking at the thick resentnt between her brows, Little Taotie pursed her lips and gazed at her with bright, sparkling eyes, asking, “Sister, what was your favorite food when you were alive?”
Red Garnt Ah Piao: “…”
She had not expected the little girl to be unafraid of her appearance.
Red Garnt Ah Piao frowned slightly, her mories too blurred to recall.
“It seems to be… cherry curd.”
“Cherry curd?” Little Taotie couldn’t help but swallow and asked in a tiny voice, “Is it tasty?”
Chard by her adorable, gluttonous look, Red Garnt Ah Piao chuckled and nodded, “The sugar cane juice is cold through the silver cup, the crimson cherries glow against the jade bowl.”
Little Taotie blinked, confused, and shook her head, “I don’t understand.”
With a light laugh, Red Garnt Ah Piao explained, “Cherry curd is made by placing fresh cherries in pretty containers and then pouring over sugar cane juice or yogurt. Jade plates, silver cups, jade bowls are all cool-toned containers that set off the snow-white and crimson yogurt cherries, making them even more tempting to the palate.”
Little Taotie’s eyes lit up like she had fallen into a whole glittering galaxy, sticking out her little tongue to involuntarily lick her lips, and she swallowed her saliva.
“Feeling greedy?” Red Garnt Ah Piao mischievously teased, “Too bad, there’s none here.”
Little Taotie eyed the resentnt at her brow, pleading softly, “Then, if you had so, could you give a taste?”
“If I had it, of course I would give it to you, who can resist your cuteness!” Red Garnt Ah Piao teased her like a child and chuckled.
Little Taotie beca excited and laughed along with her, “You do have it! Sister, you do!”
“I have?” Red Garnt Ah Piao twirled around to show her empty sleeves and shook her head, “My sleeves are empty.”
Little Taotie pointed at the resentnt on her forehead, imploringly, “Your resentnt will taste like cherry curd! You have so much resentnt, just give a little, and I can turn it into a candy flavored like cherry curd!”
Red Garnt Ah Piao was stunned, then burst out laughing, “Little cutie, don’t tease !”
“I’m not teasing you!”
“Lying is not sothing good children do!” she said as she reached out and playfully tapped Little Taotie’s little nose, “Don’t be naughty!”
Little Taotie pouted, “I’m not lying! I’m not a bad child who lies! If you don’t believe , I’ll show you!”
With that, Little Taotie stretched out her pale, harmless little hand towards Red Garnt Ah Piao.
But eerily, Red Garnt Ah Piao felt immobilized, as if she had been hit by a pressure point, and for a mont couldn’t move.
By the ti she could move again, the little girl had already grabbed a handful of thick resentnt.
“Let go, that’s not sothing good, it’s harmful to the living!” Red Garnt Ah Piao urgently shouted.
Little Taotie bunched it up, tilting her head with innocent and clear eyes, her voice milky, “Don’t worry! It’s sothing good!”
Red Garnt Ah Piao’s eyes widened as she watched the little girl turn the resentnt into a milky white and red, crystal-clear candy.
Little Taotie was about to gobble up the candy, but rembering that she hadn’t shared any treats with Hua Jinyan several tis before, she gently licked it instead. Her eyes instantly brightened, and she extended the candy to Hua Jinyan’s lips, her voice tinged with reluctance, “For you to eat!”
Hua Jinyan looked at the candy, now even more translucent after her lick, and before Little Taotie could regret it, he swallowed it in one go, his lips touching the tip of Little Taotie’s fingers.
With reluctance filling her eyes, Little Taotie watched him eat the candy. After a while, she turned expectantly to Red Garnt Ah Piao, her eyes full of hope, and whined sweetly, “Sister, can you give just a little more resentnt?”
