Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Huo Ting had never looked forward to lunchtime this much, and he had been looking at his watch since the morning.
The closer it was to twelve o’clock, the more frequently he looked at his watch.
He still didn’t know that Su Mianmian had thrown away the lunch she made in the morning.
At almost eleven o’clock, Mengmeng asked Su Mianmian if she wanted to order food.
Su Mianmian thought about it and ordered a sweet and sour pork ribs plus stir-fried meat.
That’s right! These were the two dishes she failed to make.
Mengmeng said in shock, “I really couldn’t tell you’re so thin but you can really eat!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSu Mianmian replied, “It’s not only for me, one is for Un...um, Boss.”
Mengmeng made a sound of acknowledgement and didn’t find anything wrong. She thought it was normal for Mianmian to order food for Mr. Huo since she was responsible for his diet.
Mary who was walking past heard their conversation, and she was taken aback at once.
Madam, are you sure you’re letting Boss eat fast food that cost less than twenty RMB?!
At twelve noon, Huo Ting coolly pressed the call button and instructed coldly, “Get Su Mianmian to bring my lunch in.”
After receiving the direct call from Boss, Mary’s mood became more complicated.
She felt that Boss would definitely be very angry when he sees the lunch Madam prepared for him.
Mary went out and said to Su Mianmian who was fighting on bravely, “Mianmian, Boss’s lunch...”
Before she finished talking, Su Mianmian shouted at Mengmeng, “Mengmeng, when is lunch arriving?”
“Oh, it will be here soon.” Mengmeng looked up. Seeing Mary, she gave a silly smile and said, “Sister Mary, I have snacks here if you’re hungry.”
But if she’d remembered correctly, Sister Mary didn’t order any food.
Mary shook her head and said to Su Mianmian, “Boss wants you send his lunch in.”
“Sure. No problem.” Su Mianmian replied.
Ten minutes later, the fast-food that Mianmian ordered arrived.
But instead of taking it in immediately, she took out the lunch box that she had washed in the morning and put the food in the lunch box.
Yes, she was going to treat the fast food that she bought as homemade food.
After seeing all this from outside, Mary turned around and said to herself, I didn’t see anything...
Su Mianmian knocked on the door. After hearing a response from the inside asking her to go in, she pushed the door and went in.
“Why are you so slow?” Huo Ting said unhappily. “I’ll deduct your salary if this happens again.”
“...” Su Mianmian ignored what he said. She put the food in front of Huo Ting’s desk, opened it for him, handed him the chopsticks, and said in an ingratiating manner, “Please enjoy your meal.”
Huo Ting was in a very good mood today. After giving Su Mianmian a cold look, he picked up chopsticks and started eating.
Su Mianmian kept staring at Huo Ting’s expression, and saw him...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAll right, he still had a cold expression, so she couldn’t tell his mood.
Nonetheless, Huo Ting finished all the food.
Su Mianmian was very surprised, as she seldom saw Huo Ting finish everything when dining at home.
She froze for a moment, and then asked, “Uncle, are you full?”
She could give Uncle the lunch box she ordered for herself if need be.
Huo Ting felt comfortable no matter how he looked at Little Lamb. Although the food she cooked was a bit too salty and the ingredients used weren’t fresh enough, the taste is still not bad. The most important thing was the effort she put in to cook for him.
So he decided to give praise appropriately.
“I like the food you made today.”
Su Mianmian secretly heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
Seems like Uncle likes this “little surprise”.
“But, I don’t like this dish you made. The green peppers tasted really awful.”
