Prologue XXI

'Chocolate' cake

"Hey, hey, hey......"

Siegel did not answer Renoah's question, but instead stretched out his hand and stroked the two whiskers on his mouth, with a look of 'unfathomable'. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Siegel's appearance was a silent affirmation of Renoa's inquiry, well, though Renoa still found it incredulous. Maybe Siegel's expression at this time was really 'under-trained', so after Renoa returned to normal, she covered her mouth with her hands like a queen, chuckling 'hehe', and said sarcastically and sarcastically: "I don't remember you can cook...... Otherwise, you won't be able to scorch the eggs. ”

Siegel's face couldn't help but turn red when Renoa turned his old story, especially when Lux and I turned their suspicious eyes on Siegel, Siegel's face turned even redder.

"And making a cake is much easier than an omelette, so trust me, this birthday cake may not look good, but in terms of taste, it can at least be edible......

The embarrassed Siegel didn't just bow down to Renoa's old accounts, but used a proverb to bring the problem over, and the words that followed were even more ...... Originally, I wanted to say that I was convinced, but after thinking about it, I would like to describe it as "not very convincing". After all, Siegel was quite hesitant in his last sentence, doesn't this prove that he is also a little less confident in his work?

Under Renoa's squinting gaze, Siegel became more and more embarrassed. Seeing this, Lux couldn't bear to let Siegel continue to be embarrassed, so he said: "Hmm~ People believe that my father will be able to make delicious cakes." Lux's words made me silently complain: What about the appearance of the cake? What about the appearance of the cake??The appearance of the cake???—— of course, I just think about it, after all, listening to Renoah's words, I know that Siegel himself is not good at cooking, so ...... It should be a matter of course that you can't make a nice cake...... Right?

"Thanks, thank you, Lux...... You've been so good to your father. ”

Lux's words freed Siegel from his original embarrassment, which made Siegel inexplicably grateful. As soon as he turned his head, Siegel saw that Renoa seemed to be about to say something, so he stood up "Teng", and threw down the sentence "Since everyone is full, let's start eating cake...... and hurried into the kitchen, which was really embarrassing, which made Renoa and Pakritt laugh when they saw this scene.

"It's still the same, Siegel......"

Seeing Siegel walk into the kitchen, Pacritt suddenly sighed softly. Renoa turned his head, and when he saw a rare warm expression on Paklet's face, he said softly: "Isn't it good to not change? If it changes, maybe the relationship will not go back......" Hearing this, Pacrit was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "You're right, it's good if it hasn't changed......

As Pakrit sighed to Renoa, I quietly moved my ass in the direction of Lux, then leaned my head to Lux's earlobe and muttered, "I don't know what kind of cake my father makes, but I'm really looking forward to it, husband." Hearing this, Lux laughed "poof". She turned her head so that I could see her flowery smile, but the next second, she threw me a big roll of the eyes, then covered her mouth and chuckled, "Is Kiki talking back? Don't people think that Kiki is looking forward to the cake made by his father......"

"Uh......"

Hearing this, I turned my head and looked embarrassed.

In fact, I really didn't expect much of Siegel's own cake, after all, he didn't have much confidence in Siegel himself.

My thoughts have undoubtedly been expressed on his face in Lux's eyes, of course, Lux didn't blame me, she just smiled faintly, and said softly: "Hmm~ People are also a little suspicious, but since my father took the time to make it himself, so even if it is unpalatable, people will eat it...... Otherwise, I'm sorry for my father's hard work for others. ”

When I heard Lux's words, I was speechless for a while. I've never felt what fatherly love is, and I'm still quite new to family affection, but I think that Lux must be happy at this time, even if she knows that the cake made by Siegel may not taste good.

"Pack up the gifts first, or?"

I silently turned my gaze to the music box on the table, then again, the shape of this music box is actually quite vulgar, if it is a child...... Well, children in the ordinary sense of the word must not be able to understand the meaning of these two kissing dolls, in other words, we are already unclean beings when we think about it, right? Hmm...... Wait, unclean your sister, my favorite Lux is the purest~\\(≧▽≦)/~.

"Well, since you've already watched it, let's put it back first. With that, Lux took it back to the gift box, and after tying it again, Lux carried it aside.

As Lux sat back in her place, Siegel happened to enter the dining room through the kitchen door. When I looked at Lux and I, I saw Siegel carefully holding a silver platter with a lid on it, which I had seen was about thirty centimeters in diameter and a little shorter in height, only about twenty centimeters. In other words, the cake inside should not be more than 28 centimeters in diameter and only about 18 centimeters in height, so it seems that this cake is not very large.

Siegel's steps were cautious, only a dozen steps from the table, but it took nearly thirty seconds to put the plate down. After putting down the plate, Siegel finally breathed a sigh of relief, and after reaching out to wipe the non-existent sweat droplets on his forehead, Siegel looked up at us, and the two whiskers smiled and said: "Come on, come on~ Let's see what the cake made by my father looks like......" After speaking, Siegel imitated the sound of "Dangdang~" in a deep voice, while reaching out and lifting the lid in one breath.

As I speculated, this cake is not that big. It has two layers, the lower layer is even smaller than I have speculated, the upper three centimeters in diameter, only twenty-five centimeters in size, and the height is about ten centimeters, and the upper layer is ten centimeters smaller than the lower layer, only about fifteen centimeters, and slightly smaller in height, only about eight centimeters—as for why I know so well, because the pieces of paper that hold the cake are drawn on all four directions, and the height is what I visually measured, well, visually......

If its size was within my guess, then its shape was definitely not what I expected, and I even had to wonder if Siegel had asked Renoah about the design, otherwise why would he have designed the second layer of cake to be like two hearts stacked on top of each other!

It's not that this look is bad, really, because for me and Lux, the meaning of this look is the same as the music box that Renoa gave us.

But there is a very important issue here.

First of all, Renoa's music box has a shiny and powerful appearance, while Siegel's cake has no beauty at all, and the color is tragically only brown - if it weren't for the fact that the shape of the double heart is too obvious, I really can't tell if it's a heart or a double heart.

When it comes to color, we have to think deeply, why is it coffee-colored?

"The answer is simple, because it's made of chocolate. ”

When I asked Siegel about it, Siegel said with a smug smile on his face.

Well, I instantly fell to my knees when I heard that, and it was the first time I had seen a cake made entirely of chocolate...... I have to say that Siegel is really willing to pay for Lux's birthday cake, although the value of chocolate in this world is estimated to be not as high as in my original world, but if the whole cake is made of chocolate, its price is naturally expensive.

"Is this still a cake?"

I was skeptical that Siegel knew how to make cakes, so when I asked the question, I looked at Siegel with suspicion.

Siegel nodded affirmatively and said, "Of course it's a cake, you know, there's a kind of cake called 'chocolate cake'." Hearing this, not only was I speechless to Lux, but even the Pakritt family was embarrassed, especially Renoa, who gave Siegel a beautiful white eye for free, which made Siegel very angry and said: "Isn't chocolate cake made of chocolate? ”

Hearing Siegel's defense, I found myself speechless.

"Okay, okay......"

Lux was also quite speechless, but considering that Siegel didn't know how to make cakes after all, it was natural that he couldn't tell the difference. Lux had no intention of popularizing the cake genre for Siegel, so Lux decisively set her sights on this brown-colored 'chocolate cake'.

"Hey~ Father can even draw the names of people and Qiqi~ It's amazing. ”

Hearing Lux's exclamation, I looked sideways as well. Upon closer inspection, I also saw the slightly crooked words of 'Chi Klein-love-Lux Klein'...... Wait, it seems to be a bit crooked, I think it should be described as super 'word art' to accurately describe how 'twisted' these words are.

By the way, if it weren't for Lux mentioning that it had my and Lux's names, I wouldn't have been able to understand what these ghost charms were talking about...... However, the four letters of love are drawn quite standardly—in terms of ordinary people's brushwork.

ps: New Year's Day is a little busy...... Please forgive me for the slow update...... By the way, just now I saw that the collection was 2333 (hahaha~)
