BXBX NOVEL Chapter 56 Little Baker
Li Fengjin and Ye Chaoxiang shouted in sync. "What do you mean no party? This is big brother Kai we are talking about here," Ye Chaoxiang retorted. Their awesome and loving big brother was coming back home after a long time and Yang Chen did not want them to throw a party for him. How ridiculous could that be?
"Listen to me while I talk Daddy Xiang. When I say no party, I was trying to tell you guys that Kai said he does not want one. He wants to keep a very very low profile for a while. You know, so as not to alert anyone," Yang Chen explained. Without waiting for their reply, he continued. "Secondly, he also said we should not pick him at the airport. He did not tell me the reason why but I think we should not be stubborn," he warned them. "Last but not least, Kai ordered us not to tell anyone one about his arrival. When I say anyone, I mean no one. Not even a single or married living souls. Understand?" Yang Chen said in a dangerously stern voice. He was trying to mimick his elder by and he got it right because he could tell from his friends\' reactions. They very well understood the gravity of those warnings.
"Alright, let us move to next phase of our weekend hang out. Well, Li Fengjin, tell us what we are to do," Yang Chen said. His earlier cold aura faded as soon as he was sure his friends got his elder brother\'s message.
"Let us watch a movie. You know how we do it. Xiang should start," Li Fengjin said.
Ye Chaoxiang: Alright, action.
p
Li Fengjin: Comedy.
Once they decided on how they wanted the movie to be like, Yang Chen searched for a movie on Netflix and found one. While they were searching, Li Fengjin ordered the butler to get them popcorn, potato chips and chocolate bars along with a chilled yoghurt for all. Soon enough, they were settled and started the movie.

Kitchen
While the trio were busy with the movie, Mrs Li was teaching Lee Ai how to bake cookies. When Ye Chaoxiang had arrived with her , the dullness of the vibrant sweet girl did not escape her eyes. She was told by Ye Chaoxiang that she had had a nightmare about her parents accident and since the time she woke up , she had been down.
Mrs Li then decided to help brighten her mood since the boys were having fun and her husband was out with his friends. Mrs Li felt that cooking would be great and she and Lee Ai could enjoy. At least when she wanted to forget about her troubles, she always cooked or relax by the pool. \'I hope she would enjoy baking cookies,\' Mrs Li thought within herself.
Lee Ai was trying very hard to carefully break the egg Mrs Li had given to her. Three eggs had lost their lives by falling off from the kitchen counter and she was already getting angry and dad about it. Mrs Li smiled in amusement seeing the angry pout the little baker had on her face.
"Don\'t be sad about the eggs," Mrs Li said. "I wasted good eggs because of my clumsiness. I don\'t want to break another one and dirty the kitchen. I should stop or else he will destroy more eggs," Lee Ai dejectedly sighed as she proceeded to come down from the stool she was standing on where Mrs Li stopped her.
"Hey, where are you running of to. Look sweetheart, because you broke an egg out of MISTAKE does not mean you should stop learning how to try to properly break and egg. Besides, your grandma Li is here to help you out. Now let\'s start baking before your daddy and uncle come down," Mrs Li said.
After the pep talk, Lee Ai was motivated to learn how to break an egg and bake. She was already beginning to enjoy the fun of baking. To the extent that they used the flour and some batter to on each other, laughing, screaming and running around in the kitchen. The loud noise from the kitchen alerted everyone in the building.
"What in the name of Neptune is going on here?" Li Fengjin shouted on getting to the kitchen. Eggs and flour all over the place. Why were they wasting good food? The houseworkers were already gathered in the kitchen door. All over f them were surprised to see the mess that their madam and the little miss had created.
"Daddy daddy, come look grandma Li baked cookies and I learnt how to break an egg," Lee Ai ran towards Ye Chaoxiang who scooped her up. "Mm hmm, I can see that my little baker," he nugdeg her cute nose, making her giggle.
"Someone clean this mess up. As for you sweetheart, you need to go and freshen up," Li Fengjin said and pushed his mother out of the kitchen. "But the cookies are in the oven. I need to check on it or else it will burn," Mrs Li tried to reason out with her son.
"If any cookie get burnt then everyone gets a baked." That was a very clear warning to the workers in the kitchen. "Don\'t threaten them like that Jin," Yang Chen sighed as he shook his head. He pitied the workers in the Li household.
"Oh don\'t tell me to not threaten them. They should know how to do what they ate paid for. How can they let my sweetheart\'s hand made cookies to burn?" Li Fengjin defended himself.
They all walked out of kitchen to the living room while Mrs Li went upstairs to clean up. She was covered in baking material that she herself could get baked.
"I think Lee Ai should also take a shower," Yang Chen said. The three turned their attention to the little girl who was trying to lick off the batter from the top of her nose. It was a funny sight causing them to laugh. Li Fengjin asked a maid to help Lee Ai take a bath and also sent for a fresh set of clothes for her.
