Chapter 611: Startled Escape (Added for the reward from the book friend "Al Pacino")

They hadn't had their evening meal yet when they returned from doing their laundry. Manbao and Bai Shanbao ran into the kitchen one after the other, each grabbing four steamed buns from the steamer and leaving.

The cook opened her mouth to say something but ultimately decided not to stop them. However, she was puzzled to see them still hungrily devouring steamed buns during dinner, wondering since when the young master and Miss Man had such hearty appetites.

After nightfall, when everyone had retired to their rooms, Manbao tiptoed into the kitchen carrying a small bundle and stuffed it into the cupboard where leftover pastries were still kept from earlier that evening.

Manbao closed the cupboard and quietly snuck back, with Bai Shan keeping watch at the window. Seeing her scurry over like a guilty thief, he couldn't help but break into a grin.

Manbao waved her fist at him and ran back to her room.
