At this moment, Ma Lu leaned over, "Can I have one?"
"Ah?" Rocky Chen was slightly stunned.
"Considering the time spent on interim reviews and scoring, the competition has been going on for three and a half hours. I've been working from morning till noon and my stomach is also hungry; these custard buns look quite delicious," said Ma Lu.
"Um, okay, I guess, since there are a lot on the plate and we can't finish them anyway," responded Rocky Chen.
Ma Lu then picked up a small rabbit-shaped one, took a bite, and felt the soft, cloud-like dough and the hot, flowing heart inside melt in his mouth.
