Chapter 105 - Mhmmm

"Thank you too, for letting Ming Ming be my goddaughter, I couldn't hope for a better daughter."

"Mama, why are you crying? Did Ming Ming do anything wrong?"

Wang Ming looked at Fu Ya after Ming Ming pointed out that she was crying. He didn't know why she was crying but her face didn't look sad at all instead she looked happy and relieved.

"No, nothing, I'm not crying. I just got some dust in my eye that's all."

Fu Ya used her hand to fake rub her eyes, it deceived Ming Ming, but Wang Ming didn't believe her one bit, the house is brand new where would dust come from, but since Fu Ya didn't want to open up yet, he didn't want to force her.

"Since it's a new house, I didn't clean it yet sorry for that. Now Ming Ming, do you want to make some Chocolate Noodles with daddy?"

Ming Ming said nothing but hurriedly ran towards Wang Ming eagerly jumping up and down. She looked so excited to cook with him. Maybe she would have a passion for cooking when she grows up. If she did, he would teach her everything he knows.

"Have you eaten Chocolate noodles before Ming Ming?"

Seeing her shake her head made him happy. He could show her a new type of candy, not only that, he could show her how to make candy. Though he wouldn't be making everything from scratch so he couldn't show her how to actually make noodles, but it would have to be another time.

"Ming Ming let me show you how to cook noodles ok? It's very simple."

Wang Ming then took Ming Ming's hands to open a pack of noodles. He got her to grip the noodles tightly before taking her hands over the boiling water.

"Ah."

Ming Ming dropped the noodles as soon as she felt the heat from the steam that hit her hand. But luckily her hands were over the pot, so most of the noodles fell into the pot.

"Are you okay? Ming Ming? Put your hands in cold water immediately. If you're in pain."

He then grabbed her hands to blow on them to relieve Ming Ming's pain. He expected to see her face crunched up in pain, but she looked happy, like when a father spoils his princess.

"It doesn't hurt Daddy. The water bubbles scared me."

Fu Ya wanted to move over to check on Ming Ming, but when she heard that she wasn't hurt, she let Wang Ming take care of it.

"There's nothing to be scared off Ming Ming, I'll hold your hands tight this time, so there's nothing that's going to hurt you."

She hadn't put in enough noodles, so Wang Ming gave Ming Ming another batch of noodles to cook, but this time it went a lot better, she didn't even drop one noodle outside of the pot. It seemed like Wang Ming's soothing made Ming Ming more confident.

"Good job, Ming Ming! I'm proud of you. Now when the noodles cooks, let us make the chocolate sauce."

"Mmm, I love chocolate, Daddy!"

"Then you're going to love this candy."

The chocolate sauce would be simple to make as he had chocolates already from the bag of snacks that Mo An had picked out. There were multiple chocolate bars in it and he had chosen two which were perfect for the sauce.

One of the chocolate bars had caramel inside, which would make the sauce even sweeter, but then he would also mix it with a dark chocolate bar, which would even out the sweet taste, but the dark chocolate bar also has a hint of chili in it.

"Let me show you how to do this, Ming Ming. See to melt the chocolate you put it in a bowl over the pot make sure that the bowl doesn't hit the water. Then slowly stir it okay?"

Ming Ming understood what Wang Ming said, but her hands were too small so she couldn't properly stir the bowl, so Wang Ming had to take over for her.

"Don't worry Ming Ming, you can do this when you get older let Daddy show you how to do it."

He just slowly stirred the mix of chocolate, which was in the bowl but he made sure that it released no steam from the bottom as it's very important that no moisture comes into the chocolate, he had made this mistake many times when he was young making a chocolate sauce with his mother.

If you let any moisture back into the chocolate, it will harden up and become more of a dough than a sauce. He made sure that the bowl was secure every time he moved it and after a few minutes the chocolate had all melted down, but now came the most important step taking the bowl off.

He took the bowl off fast and hurriedly wiped the bottom of the bowl to get all the moisture off. Wang Ming then saw that Ming Ming tried to cover up the bowl as she was afraid of it cooling down.

"Stop, Ming Ming! It's important that you don't cover the chocolate. If you do it when the chocolate is hot it can produce moisture which will ruin the sauce."

Fu Ya got curious seeing the chocolate sauce that Wang Ming had made, as it smelled weird but also good. She moved over to see what they were doing as well.

"I'm sorry, Daddy. I didn't know."

"Don't worry Ming Ming, I'm not angry. I didn't mean to yell at you."

Giving her a hug, Wang Ming then moved his attention back to chocolate sauce. He needed to see if he still needs to season the chocolate anymore.

"I want to taste it Daddy, please let me taste."

Seeing her so eager to taste it, Wang Ming let her try the sauce. As the chocolate sauce is as good as it is, he hoped it tastes good. The dish didn't need the noodles at all, but the noodles would make the chocolate taste less intense, allowing people to eat more of it.

"Mhmm!"

Ming Ming said nothing after trying the chocolate sauce, instead ran around looking at the ground. Looking at her curiously, Fu Ya also tried the sauce, but funnily enough she had almost the same reaction as Ming Ming.

"Is it good?"

"Mhmmm."
