Chapter 41 For You, Thousands Upon Thousands

The muffin molds liners were small cups prepared long ago. Jiang Qiuqiu brushed butter on the bottom of the cups and poured the batter in. “In order to let more people enjoy the taste of cake, we only put one small cake in each cups. But if we make a bigger one, we pour a bit more batter.”

The batter slightly rose, forming a small tip. Just like every time before, Jiang Qiuqiu slowed down only when making the first one, explaining as she worked. After the first one, her speed was like flying.

With a flip and a pour, in just a few sentences, the batter for twenty molds liner was poured.

“For this dessert, we’ll use a new tool, an oven.”

This era had replicated the ovens used back then, although the power and usage methods were a bit different now, but the function remained the same.

“Put the molds into the oven, and now, we can start smelling.”

At first, the fragrance was faint, barely noticeable, only those with keen senses seemed to perceive a hint of it.

Then, as time passed, the  camera focused on the oven’s transparent panel, everyone could clearly see the still gooey cakes slowly expanding, forming small bumps.

The fragrance intensified.

Eggs combined with sugar, then with flour, underwent a reaction at high temperature, becoming soft and fluffy, the strong sweet fragrance directly wafting out of the oven.

[What’s this scent?]

[Mmm, it’s fragrant, so fragrant!]

[So sweet, this feeling… too sweet!]

[I don’t know why, tears uncontrollably flow from the corners of my mouth…]

[I finally understand why Jiujiu said this scent, though completely different from braised gugu but it’s equally overpowering. This scent just goes straight into the brain, so mouthwatering!]

“But it’s not the most fragrant yet.”

Ten minutes passed and a cracks naturally appeared on the cake’s surface, The caramel-colored top cracked one by one, revealing the snow-white ‘belly’ inside.

Jiang Qiuqiu used tongs to remove the molds.

What a mouth-watering aroma.

Chang Bei outside the holographic screen also swallowed saliva, his eyes slowly turning vertical, some orange hues of desire in his pupils. “This, this batter suddenly looks so appealing, is the color of the cake similar to the color of my eyes?”

“Qiu Dao, it smells so good!”

“…”

“Um.” Qiu Dao brushed his tail.

Everyone on the screen praised Qiuqiu’s dessert lavishly. She thanked everyone for their compliments, swiftly moved the cakes out, and placed them under the scanner.

“Though I’m happy to hear your compliments, it’s getting late. Let’s finish eating quickly and rest.”

“I’m a bit tired too.”

The first wave of cakes was quickly distributed. This time, it was a welfare giveaway, not based on the speed of fans but everyone’s participation. The system randomly selected ten thousand lucky fans from the participants to taste the delicious cakes.

This time, she made twenty, which can benefit two hundred thousand fans.

But there are currently more than 700,000 people watching online. Jiang Qiuqiu didn’t say much and just took out a new molds.

“Those who have been selected can start eating. Those who haven’t can wait a bit more, I’ll try to let everyone taste tonight’s cakes.”

She took out smaller molds and sped up.

One cake after another was placed on the scanner. Jiang Qiuqiu became increasingly tired. After distributing to nearly six hundred thousand lucky viewers, she had no choice but to turn off the live stream because of exhaustion.

Sleepy and tired, she went to sleep.
