In one corner of the banquet hall stood a row of tables laden with various cheeses, biscuits, and fruits. Several tables were filled with exquisite pastries, along with two enormous cake towers standing five layers high. At this moment, two chefs were standing by with knives at the ready. Mu Fan gazed at the golden, fluffy texture of the cheesecake nearby and a pile of desserts he had never encountered before, let alone named: honeycomb cake, Miluo pudding, soft-centered jam bread...
Occasionally, someone would pass by and pick up a small, elegant portion to eat. These were pre-dinner desserts provided for the guests, available for casual sampling.
Mu Fan's eyes widened; he had never in his life seen such delicious-looking food. It was like a mountain laid before him, free for the taking, yet surprisingly few people seemed interested in the vast array of desserts.
