Chapter 18: Going to the kitchen

Su Lan thought for a while and heading over to the kitchen. She saw some similar looking ingredients but wasn't sure if the ingredients were the same as the one on earth.The chef went over to Su Lan and asked, "Little miss, is there something you want to eat?"

Su Lan: "I want to use the kitchen. You can head out and take a break."

Chef: ".....Yes, Little miss." (Turns every three steps to look back at Su Lan).

Su Lan first walked over to what look like salt and sugar. She dipped her finger in and tasted it a bit. It was normal salt and sugar. She then walked over to the weird looking vegetable and opened her screen and started to look at all the food descriptions. She decided to make pound cake. She grabbed the ingredients that fit the ingredients for pound cake even though it looked a bit weird.

How was it weird? If you see an egg that is not oval but squared and milk was supposed to white become pink how can that seem normal!

Su Lan picked up all the ingredients that had similar effects and taste to make the pound cake. She put the mix into the oven. At least the oven was normal but instead of gas it used fire stones to light up. After using an hour and 15 minutes the pound cake was finally ready but it was pink in color instead of yellow. Su Lan cut a slice and tried it. She smiled and though at least it tasted right. Su Lan sliced the rest of the pound cake and packed it in a basket. She also made different type of sandwiches and decide to bring some to her father. She was sure her father should have been working the whole time without eating. Mango had told her before that her father had to come back home to check on her and refused to go back to his office in the castle to work. Her father brought his work home but there was still a lot that piled up.

Su Lan walked over to her father's office and saw two guards at the door and a few hidden ones. She walked up and told the guards to inform her father she was here. One of the guards knocked on the door and walked in.

Su Lan waited a while before her father's assistant Shun came out.

Shun: "Little miss please come with me."

Su Lan nodded and walked in with him. In the office, her father Lui Shan was current writing a document and his desk had was two stacks of paper. When she walked in Lui Shan finish writing a sentence and then looked up. He had a gentle smile on his face and ask if she needed anything.

Su Lan: "Father did you eat lunch?"

Shun and Lui Shan stared at her. Lui Shan took a while to come back before answering.

Lui Shan: "No, not yet."

Su Lan: "I made some food and desserts for you."

Lui Shan and Shun both had a look of being shocked and dumbfounded. The only thing they were missing was a mouth hanging open wide.

Su Lan mouth twitched and decide maybe it better to tell her father the truth but, of course hide some parts or she wouldn't able to explain her changes. From her memories she knew how Lui Shan cared about her and wouldn't harm her.

Su Lan (teary eyes): "Daddy, you don't want to eat it?"

Lui Shan the daughter-con immediately said, "I want to eat!"

Shun looked at his boss and childhood friend and thought before he was already a daughter-con before but even more so now.

Su Lan smiled and pulled her father from behind the desk to the couch and coffee table. She turn to Shun and said, "Uncle Shun can you have some bring in some tea and we can eat together?"

Shun: "Sure...."

Shun turned and had a maid make some tea.

Su Lan looked at the blue tea and opened her screen confirming it was what earth called black tea in her world.

Su Lan pulled Shun to also sit down on the couch before putting the sandwiches and pound cake on the coffee table. Shun and Lui Shan was shocked because it looked edible. They were thinking even if it was burned and pitch black they would still eat it because it was her first time cooking. When they saw the sandwiches and especially the pound cake they were shocked.
