Heroine's Daughter Away on Vacation

It was a sunny afternoon when Bing, Leira's elder sister, decided to whisk her little sister away on a culinary escapade. Bing was known for her adventurous spirit and insatiable love for food, so when she offered to take Leira to some of her favorite spots, the younger girl was more than excited.

"Where are we going first, Elder Sister Bing?" Leira asked, practically bouncing in her seat as they sat in the car.

Bing grinned, adjusting her sunglasses dramatically. "First stop: the best dumpling shop in town. You haven't truly lived until you've had their soup dumplings."

The aroma of steamed buns and broth hit them the moment they walked into the small, bustling shop. Bing ordered a steamer full of xiao long bao, soup-filled dumplings, and expertly showed Leira how to eat them.

"Careful, don't just bite into it, or the soup will spill everywhere. Use the spoon like this," Bing instructed, demonstrating with precision.
