Chapter 561 Three-thirds of the world
For the three girls from Ying Chanxi, this clay workshop was not unfamiliar, let alone Li Luo, who had been there three times and had a memory palace.

After the four people followed Kelly Tam into the store, they sat down at the wooden table in a very familiar manner.

Seeing this, Kelly Tan simply brought up the clay she had prepared in advance and gave each of the four people a portion. She then asked, "What do you want to make today?"

"Besides cups, bowls and the like, are there any other commemorative items that can be made?" Xu Youyu asked curiously.

"As long as it has a specific shape, it can be made. It's just a matter of difficulty." Kelly Tan said this, pointing to the finished product display cabinet next to her. "You can try to make anything in there. It depends on your own needs."

Ying Chanxi and the others looked in the direction of Tan Huilin's finger, then stood up and walked to the display cabinet to look for the items they liked.

Li Luo didn't look at it, because he already had a preliminary idea in his mind before coming.

So when the three girls were choosing their targets, Li Luo had already skillfully picked up the clay, made the object she wanted to make, and then covered it with a cloth and quietly handed it to Tan Huilin.

"Are you done?" Tan Huilin was surprised.

"Well, it's a relatively simple little thing." Li Luo whispered, "But don't let them see it. After it's fired this afternoon, you have to cover it up and give it to me."

"Of course you can." Tammy Tam nodded, she was very familiar with this business.

After all, there were some couples in the past who wanted to give each other a surprise after the finished product was made, so during the production process, they hoped to hide what they had done from each other.

Kelly Tan was already experienced in this area. She reached out and picked up the plate with the clay objects on it and took it to the firing room for storage.

After walking in, she curiously lifted the cloth to take a look, then her expression was stunned, and then she was speechless, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help twitching a few times.

After seeing this, if Li Luo ever again said that these three girls were his cousins, Kelly Tan would probably just respond with a sneer.

"What is Li Luo going to do?" Yan Zhusheng had thought about what he was going to do. When he returned to the wooden table, he found Li Luo leisurely browsing his phone, so he asked curiously.

But Li Luo said, "I have already made it and asked the boss lady to put it in the kiln room."

"So fast?" Ying Chanxi asked in surprise, "What did you do?"

"Keep it a secret." Li Luo said with a smile, "What are you going to do?"

"I plan to..." Ying Chanxi said this, and suddenly snorted, then changed his tone and said, "If you keep it a secret, then I will keep it a secret too, Madam Boss, can I go to the wooden table over there?"

After saying that, Ying Chanxi pointed to an empty wooden table deeper in the room, not intending to let Li Luo know what he had done in advance.

Kelly Tan nodded indifferently.

Seeing this, Yan Zhusheng and Xu Youyu followed suit and found other places so as not to show it to Li Luo.

So Li Luo had no choice but to wait on the side.

Kelly Tan moved back and forth between the three girls, lending a hand when they encountered difficulties and teaching them specific steps.

This step did not take much time. After all, the three girls already had some experience before. And the things they made this time did not require rotation like making cups, so it was easier.

Near ten o'clock, the three of them finished their work successfully. They covered their work with cloth, not showing it to Li Luo, and handed it over to Kelly Tan to deal with.

"Then let's stop here for the morning." Li Luo stood up and said, "Let's go have lunch first. When the cooking is done, please notify the boss lady."

“Okay, no problem.” Kelly Tan made an OK gesture and watched the four of them leave.

Looking at the backs of the four people in a very harmonious atmosphere, Kelly Tan stood at the door of the store, unable to come back to her senses for a long time, and was caught up in an incomprehensible problem.

How did Li Luo do this?
……

Li Luo still didn't realize how much trouble he had caused to the boss's wife's worldview.

At this time, Xu Youyu was driving. Before Li Luo said where to go for dinner, she had already driven to the gate of the Golden Lakeside Bathing Beach.

"Come here again?" Li Luo was speechless.

"Although you have been here three times, we have only been here once." Xu Youyu said with a smile, "Besides, it takes several hours to fire the clay. We have to find something to do after lunch."

As he said this, Xu Youyu had already found a parking space in the parking lot nearby, so the four of them got out of the car and entered the bathhouse.

Li Luo went to the men's bath, while Ying Chanxi and the other two went to the women's bath.

"It seems like we haven't taken a bath together for a long time."

Soaking in the bathtub, Xu Youyu let out a long sigh and looked at Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng beside him, "The last time seemed to be in Qiongzhou City."

"Yeah." Yan Zhusheng nodded, as if she remembered something. She moved her feet, feeling that something was missing.

"By the way, what did you do?" Ying Chanxi asked curiously.

"What did Xixi do?"

"I will not say."

"Then I won't tell you either."

The three girls played around in the bathtub, took a shower, changed into bathrobes, and went upstairs to find Li Luo.

At this time, Li Luo was already waiting in the dining area and had ordered their favorite meals in advance.

After Ying Chanxi and the other three found this place and sat down, the dishes were served one after another within a few minutes.

But just when Li Luo was enjoying his lunch peacefully, he felt something extra on his thigh.

Looking down, his eyes immediately turned to Xu Youyu who was standing across the table, with a helpless expression on his face.

At first, Xu Youyu was eating seriously, and there was no sign of anything unusual on his face.

It was not until she raised her head and made eye contact with Li Luo that a sly smile flashed across her brows and her feet started to play mischief.

But just when Li Luo thought that was it, his thigh suddenly felt heavier.

Looking down again, Li Luo's mouth twitched suddenly, and he turned to look at Yan Zhusheng on his right.

Yan Zhusheng also looked normal. After noticing Li Luo's gaze, he picked up a piece of braised pork and put it into his bowl.

Li Luo had a helpless look on his face. He turned his head to look at Ying Chanxi on the left. Seeing that she was eating with gusto and finding topics to chat from time to time, he sighed.

As expected, his Xixi is the best behaved.

Unlike the other two, who always like to make trouble and make people worry.

Fortunately, Li Luo chose a private room before ordering, otherwise it would be very embarrassing if seen by other guests.

Can't you just go home and do it?
After finally finishing lunch, the four of them went to play at the pool table next door for a while, and then opened a mahjong room.

It was not until around one o'clock in the afternoon that the proprietress sent a message saying that the firing was completed. The four people went downstairs, changed their clothes, and returned to the workshop.

Because of the confidentiality measures initiated by Li Luo, after the four people received their respective products, they were divided among four tables to prevent others from seeing them.

After careful carving and coloring, the four people finished the work at around three o'clock in the afternoon and handed it over to the proprietress for the final firing.

"You'll probably get the finished product around six in the evening, and I'll pack it for you then." Tan Huilin said, "Will you come and get it at six?"

"Yes, I came to get it." Ying Chanxi nodded. Although she was a good student, she never asked for leave for fun.

But today is Li Luo's birthday, so Ying Chanxi took a day off from evening self-study for the first time and celebrated Li Luo's birthday tonight.

"So where are we going now?" Li Luo turned and asked Xu Youyu after sitting in the co-pilot seat.

"Don't ask me, ask Xixi." Xu Youyu pointed at Ying Chanxi and said with a smile, "Xixi, where is the store you are looking for?"

"Let me give you navigation." Ying Chanxi became excited when he mentioned this. He sat in the middle seat of the back seat. After the navigation came out, he gave directions to Xu Youyu.

Soon, Xu Youyu drove to a cake shop.

"So you're just here to pick up a birthday cake?" Li Luo said with a smile, "Why are you being so mysterious?"

"We're not here just to pick up the cake." Xu Youyu said with a smile. After unbuckling his seat belt, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go, get out of the car!"

After the four people got out of the car, Li Luo followed the three girls into the cake shop, only to find that this shop seemed a little different.

After entering, there is an open kitchen.

Ying Chanxi took the lead in stepping forward and after some communication with the store staff, he obtained the right to use one of the countertops.

At this time, Li Luo realized that they were not here to pick up the cake, but came here specifically to make the cake themselves.

Although Li Luo was a chef in his previous life, he mainly cooked home-cooked meals and the main dishes in Chinese restaurants. He had never come into contact with food like this kind of noodles.

Although I can do it, I am definitely not as good as others in terms of professionalism.

I have hardly encountered such a thing in my previous life.

Perhaps inspired by Li Luo's choice of a handmade workshop, Ying Chanxi also privately found a shop where he could make cakes by himself.

The store provides the raw materials, so they can make a birthday cake by themselves to celebrate Li Luo's birthday.

"Should I lend a hand?" Li Luo couldn't help but ask as he watched the three of them put on aprons.

"You put it on first." Ying Chanxi helped him put the apron on his head with his own hands.

As a result, just as she was about to go around to the back to help Li Luo tighten the straps, Yan Zhusheng on the other side got there first.

"We plan to have each person take charge of one-third of the cake," Xu Youyu said with a smile. "You can watch and give us your opinions, but whether we adopt them or not is our business."

"alright."

Li Luo didn't care and watched them operate with interest.

The main body of the cake is baked in advance by the store.

After Ying Chanxi and the others got the cake, they cut it into three layers.

After the first layer was laid out, the three people drew lines with cream, allocating one-third of the territory.

Ying Chanxi put his favorite mango cubes on it, Yan Zhusheng put strawberries, and Xu Youyu put some apple slices.

"I prefer eating grapes, why don't you put them in?" Li Luo reminded from the side.

"Is this okay?" Xu Youyu picked up two peeled grapes and stuffed them in the middle as a finishing touch. "I'll give you two, no more."

Li Luo: “…”

He always felt that Xu Youyu was driving, but with the other two sisters present, he didn't know where to start complaining.

So I could only watch helplessly as the second layer of cake was built up.

On this layer, Ying Chanxi sprinkled white chocolate crumbs on his territory.

Xu Youyu used chocolate sauce.

Yan Zhusheng prefers strawberries, so he spread another layer of strawberry jam.

Li Luo saw this and couldn't help but say, "What if we eat a cake at night with half strawberry jam and half chocolate? Wouldn't it taste a bit weird?"

"Is it strange?" Xu Youyu laughed, "I guess you like it so much that you can't wait."

Li Luo: “…”

Horse riding!
Sister You Yu, you are driving right?

Unfortunately, Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng couldn’t hear it.

Only because Li Luo had read many of Xu Youyu's masterpieces in his previous life could he immediately understand the hidden meaning of this guy's words.

All I can say is that this driving skill has reached perfection.

After the second layer of sandwich is completed, the top layer of cake is covered.

The three girls carefully wrapped and trimmed the entire cake with cream, and then began to add patterns and decorations on their own areas.

Because of their different aesthetic tastes, the three territories on the cake are clearly defined, and you can tell at a glance which one belongs to whom.

And as the last step before the task was completed, the three girls received three chocolate figurines from the clerk. They all looked like cute girls and were placed in their respective territories.

Afterwards, another chocolate man was brought and placed by Ying Chanxi himself in the center of the cake, at the junction of the three territories.

In this way, the birthday cake is completed.

However, Li Luo looked at the little man sitting in the center of the cake and couldn't help asking, "Is this me?"

"Yes." Ying Chanxi nodded, "The three people around are me, Zhu Sheng and my senior."

"Um……"

Ying Chanxi’s idea is quite good.

But Li Luo looked at himself sitting on the cake, thinking that on his birthday later, he would have to cut himself into several pieces with his own hands and give them to the three girls in turn. He felt a chill down his spine just thinking about it.

However, looking at the four little people on the cake, Li Luo still smiled. It would be nice if the little people could be squeezed together.

While I was thinking this, the cake had already been packed and it was almost six o'clock in the evening.

By the time Xu Youyu drove back to the workshop, Tan Kelly had just helped them pack the finished products and put them in small gift boxes.

Ying Chanxi took his gift box, then looked at Li Luo curiously. Seeing that the gift box in his hand was not big, he became even more curious and didn't know what Li Luo had done.

Li Luo obviously had no intention of saying anything. After putting the gift box in his pocket, he said goodbye to the proprietress.

Four people got in the car and drove towards Bi Hai Lan Ting.

"The three of us will make dinner." Ying Chanxi emphasized to Li Luo, "You just wait and eat."

"Okay, okay, just don't poison me to death."
