Mi Yao was taken aback.
Her gaze shifted from a faint shyness to her current stunned expression, prompting Feng Yueming to frown instinctively, before he ordered, "Go to the kitchen and boil the dumplings."
Mi Yao did not dare hesitate, she placed the dumplings on the Crystal Plate and then hurried into the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Mi Yao boiled the water and then used chopsticks to put the dumplings in one by one.
Suddenly, a sequence of footsteps sounded behind her, Mi Yao thought Nanny Fu had come, so she said, "Nanny Fu, I've put all the dumplings in, what spices should I prepare next?"
There was silence behind her.
Mi Yao found it strange, wondering why Nanny Fu wasn't responding, so she turned around.
As she turned, she found herself in the embrace of Feng Yueming, who had appeared silently behind her at some point, standing very close.
