“Really?” Sonia looked at Toby with wide eyes.

He nodded. “Yes. If you don’t believe me, why don’t you let me try?”

She handed the carving knife over without saying anything. After he took it, he took two steps forward and stood where she had just stood before he picked up the mud-like pumpkin she had carved and inspected it carefully, as if he was wondering where he should start from.

Sonia didn’t know what he was thinking. As she watched him remain motionless with the knife in one hand and her carved pumpkin in the other, she thought that he finally realized that things were not as simple and easy as he had said they were at the beginning. Just as she was about to laugh at him for boasting, she saw him move all of a sudden. With his long fingers wrapped around the carving knife, he carved onto the pumpkin little by little. His movements were deft, and he didn’t seem like a novice at all, more like a master with many years of carving experience.

Her red lips opened slightly in surprise. “You’re so good at this. When did you learn how to carve? Did you pick it up when you learned to cook?”

Even though food carving was a part of culinary arts, there were not many people who would learn it, and it was mostly those who dreamed of being a hotel chef or a chef in some high-end restaurant who would learn it. After all, it was only in a situation like this that food carving would come in handy. The average chef in a small restaurant would only know some simple dishes, but there was no need for any complicated food carvings in those dishes. Although Toby had been learning cooking recently, he was mostly learning home-cooked dishes from major cuisines instead of any exquisite and beautiful dishes. Therefore, it surprised her greatly that he knew food carving.

“I never learned it.” Unexpectedly, Toby’s answer was that he hadn’t learned it.

Sonia walked to his side in surprise. Looking at the movements in his hands, she looked even more astonished. “You never learned it? Then how did you know how to do this? You even look so good at it!”
