Shirley heard footsteps behind her. She turned around and locked eyes with the man descending the stairs.

“The dumplings are ready. I’ll bring them out in a moment.” She smiled at him.

His gaze became more intense and he couldn’t help but secretly gulp.

“I accidentally made too many dumplings. Please don’t waste them. You have to eat them all!” Shirley brought out the second bowl while looking a bit embarrassed as she smiled at him.
