Chapter 247 Special Desserts
Since he was buying desserts, Kino must go to Alia's dessert shop.

In fact, there are quite a few famous dessert shops in Dusk City. Since Chino took office as administrator, the city’s governance has become more orderly. Coupled with various tax incentives and policy support, it has attracted many talents to settle in, including those from the inland provinces. Or exotic chefs, their craftsmanship is extremely exquisite, and the desserts they make are naturally top-notch.

But food is actually the same thing as love.

The girl with the most beautiful body and the hottest body may not necessarily be your favorite type.

Compared with the big star that everyone admires on TV, you may still prefer the big sister next door who smiles sweetly at you every day.

The same is true for desserts. Alia's craftsmanship is definitely not as good as that of a top chef, but Kino prefers her home's natural sweetness to those delicate and exaggerated desserts.

At the dessert shop, Alia was kneading dough. When she saw Kino coming, she jumped out of the door happily: "Master Administrator, long time no see, you haven't come for a week! I dreamed about you last night~ "

Chino showed a friendly smile: "I'm a bit busy these days, so I haven't had time to patronize the business. Please come with two catties of egg yolk crisps, one catty of regular and one catty of special. Thank you."

"Wait a minute, the egg yolk puff pastry has just been sold out, I'll bake it for you now." Alia invited Chino to sit down, brought free tea and pastries, and then got into the kitchen, skillfully mixing various ingredients, and soon Just make the original solution, shape it, and put it in the oven to bake.

Alia washed her hands, sat down opposite Kino, held her face and said with a smile: "It will be ready in 8 minutes, please wait patiently~"

Chino: "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry."

Alia asked curiously: "You actually ordered a regular one today. Did you bring it to someone else? Or the guest you mentioned last time?"

Chino nodded: "Yes, she is still young, eating too much sugar is not good for her health, so I don't plan to let her eat the special version."

"Wow, how gentle and caring~" Alia pushed the tray in front of her gently, "Come on, gentle administrator, first eat some pastries to fill your stomach."

Kino picked up the pastry and took a bite, couldn't help nodding, and praised from the bottom of his heart: "I've heard a saying before - if you want to lock a man's heart, you must lock his stomach first - which one will you be in the future?" It must be a blessing for a man to marry you."

Blush appeared on Alia's face, her red lips were pursed, her eyes dodged left and right, and she smirked sweetly from time to time.

Chino glanced at the empty dessert shop, and asked casually, "I don't see any other men every time I come here, are you single?"

Alia pushed her hair behind her ears and nodded slightly: "Yes, I haven't been in a relationship yet"

Kino's eyes widened immediately: "Impossible? You are such a beautiful girl, and you are such a good cook. No man likes you? Are all the men in Twilight City blind?"

Yalia held her small face, shook her head from side to side, and said slowly: "Actually speaking of this topic, when I was very young, a little boy next door said that he would marry me in the future, but it was just a childhood joke. Later, when I grew up, many people confessed to me, but I was always single because I didn’t meet anyone I really liked.”

Chino: "Didn't you consider talking to someone casually first?"

Alia shook her head firmly: "No, no, love is something that you can't talk about with just one person, but you have to like it wholeheartedly. If you don't like it that much, you'd rather wait for the next one than just let it go. This It is my bottom line, and I cannot relax easily."

"So, even if a man confesses his love to me, I will definitely refuse after making it clear. Otherwise, it is not only self-discipline, but also irresponsible to each other."

"I admire your view of love." Chino was not being polite, but approving from the bottom of his heart.

Alia's view of love is very common in modern times, and it's not unusual, but in this conservative feudal era, her view of love can still be so upright, she can be considered a "heterogeneous".

Alia was very happy when she was praised, and she couldn't hide it. Two small dimples appeared on her cheeks. It’s timid. If I fell in love with someone, I would be the type who keeps pretending to be stupid, dare not speak out openly, and only dare to hint quietly.”

Kino immediately asked curiously: "Oh? Then do you have someone you like now?"

"I won't tell you~ it's someone from your house anyway." Alia secretly glanced at Chino, her eyes lowered in confusion.

Kino was eating egg tarts just now, and didn't notice Alia's eyes. He raised his head and thought for a while, then tentatively said, "Lugo also seems to come to this dessert shop often. Is the person you like Lugo?"

"Pfft~" Alia was directly amused, "How is it possible? I don't like rough guys like Lugo! I like boys who are more delicate. The young ones."

Kino thought for a while, and clapped his hands vigorously: "Baiza! He is the youngest among my officers, and he is very skilled in archery. Every time he goes to the stall to shoot a target, he can attract the admiration and cheers of many girls. Are you Don't you like Baiza? Do you need me to introduce each other for you?"

Alia didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she lowered her head, and her voice was as soft as a deer whispering: "I mean younger. The ones younger than me"

"My lord administrator." A soldier suddenly came to the table, nodded to Kino and said, "My lord judge, there are several cases that I don't know how to decide. I would like to invite you to his house for dinner to discuss together. The time is set at Is it convenient for you to watch at 6 o'clock in the evening?"

Chino nodded: "Okay, I see, I will go there on time."

After the soldiers left, Kino looked at Alia: "Sorry, what did you just say?"

"It's nothing. It's nothing." Alia lowered her head and kept rubbing the corners of her clothes, feeling a little overwhelmed. Fortunately, the alarm clock rang soon, giving her something to do.

Alia went to pack the freshly baked egg yolk shortbread and handed it to Kino, her voice was full of big sister's tenderness: "Come, one catty is regular, one catty is custom-made. The customized one uses two egg yolks per piece, White sugar is replaced with honey, and the most important thing is—"

"No sesame!"

After paying the money, Kino took the egg yolk pastry and smiled at Alia: "Thank you for your care."

Just as Kino was about to leave, a voice came from behind him: "Kino."

It was the first time Alia called his name.

It was evening now, and the last afterglow of the setting sun fell on Alia's face, illuminating the longing in her eyes, but in the end, she still didn't have the courage to speak her mind, so she couldn't help but chuckled, her soft voice was like evening The wind: "I said that I dreamed about you last night, and it was true."

Chino blinked: "Well, I believe it."

As the sun set, Alia watched Kino's leaving figure until he gradually disappeared from sight.
