“Yes, yes, yes. Look, I was so caught up in my sadness that I didn’t consider that,” Butler Li quickly wiped away his tears and led them inside. “Let’s go, let’s go back and rest properly!”

Upon returning to the main residence of the Zhou family’s ancestral home, Liao Ning allowed the two children to play in the living room while she headed to the kitchen to prepare desserts for them. Sweet treats had a calming effect on people.

Liao Ning gathered the ingredients and turned on the live-stream system.

“Hello, everyone! Today, I’ll be making desserts for the children at home. I’ll be teaching you how to make Taro Paste Mochi.”

[Sister Liao Ning!]

[I thought Liao Ning would take a few days off after the competition. I didn’t expect her to start a live-stream the next day!]

[I’m so thrilled that Liao Ning is live-streaming. I was just craving something sweet today!]

Liao Ning smiled sweetly at the camera. “Since everyone is so enthusiastic, let’s all learn together! ”

[Of course!] [Liao Ning looks absolutely stunning. Her smile just now blinded me!]

[Me too.]

[I won’t recover without Liao Nings kiss!]

“The ingredients we’ll need for today’s Taro Paste Mochi are taro, purple sweet potato powder, milk powder, white sugar, cheese, glutinous rice flour, corn starch, milk, and butter.

First, peel and wash the taro, then cut it into small pieces and steam them in a pot. Once the taro is steamed, place it in a bowl and add a little purple sweet potato powder, a suitable amount of milk powder, and a desired amount of white sugar. Then, mash the taro into a paste and stir until all the ingredients are well combined.”

[Why does Liao Ning add purple sweet potato powder? Can’t she omit it?] [I don’t have any purple potato powder at home.]

Liao Ning responded as she stirred the taro paste, “Sure. I only added purple sweet potato powder to enhance the final color of the Taro Paste. It’s purely for visual appeal and not for flavoring. If you don’t have it or find it inconvenient, you can omit it.”

After preparing the Taro Paste, Liao Ning moved on to making the mochi crust.

“Now, let’s prepare the crust for the mochi. In a bowl, combine glutinous rice flour, corn starch, and white sugar. Gradually pour in a suitable amount of milk while stirring to achieve a smooth consistency. Once well-mixed. strain the

batter to ensure there are no lumps when steamed.”

“Cover the strained batter with plastic wrap, poke small holes in it, and steam it in a pot for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, you can stir-fry the glutinous rice flour.”

“Heat a clean pan and stir-fry the glutinous rice flour for three minutes. Transfer it to a bowl and set it aside. Melt the butter while it’s hot, then knead it into the steamed batter until thoroughly combined. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for 30 minutes.”

After washing her hands, Liao Ning addressed her viewers, “In the next thirty minutes, I’ll take you all to see the wolf cub and his new friend, Mili.”

Liao Ning walked into the living room, where the wolf cub and Mili were playing a game of aeroplane chess on the table. The little girl leaned against the light, focused on shaking the dice, while the wolf cub beside her watched intently, like a knight from a fairy tale devoted to his princess.

The floating live-streamer beside Liao Ning captured this heartwarming scene. The audience watching the live-stream couldn’t contain their excitement in the chat.

[Oh my god, did you see how seriously the wolf cub looks at the little girl?] [This little girl is so beautiful. Who is she?]

[I was wondering the same thing. Plus, Nai Nai seems to be quite familiar with her.]

[Now that the live-streamer is Colonel Zhou’s girlfriend and they live in the Zhou family’s house on the capital planet, could this little girl be Colonel Zhou

Ling’s niece?]

[That’s a plausible theory. The little girl does bear a resemblance to Colonel

Zhou Ling.]

[She does resemble her mother!]

[Her mother?]

[Have you forgotten? Since the little girl is Colonel Zhou’s daughter, her mother is Colonel Zhou’s sister-in-law. Colonel Zhou’s sister-in -law is the renowned beauty and genius in the alliance—Milu!]

[Not only is Milu stunning, but she’s also an S-rank instructor at the Alliance Military School!]

The chat buzzed with excitement as they discussed Mili’s mother. Liao Ning took this opportunity to gather some information about Mili’s mother’s identity.

After reading through the comments from the viewers, Liao Ning realized that almost 30 minutes had passed.. She turned to the two little ones who were tidying up the aeroplane chess pieces and asked, “Mili, Nai Nai, would you like to try making mochi?”
