Chapter 172: Conquering Colleagues With Granny’s Dishes

During lunch time, Li An’an was in the office, fuming as she gobbled down the staff meal.

Damn it.

Her colleagues in the office comforted her as they ate from their own lunch boxes.

“An’an, did CEO Chu berate you? I saw that your face was red with anger when you came out. It’s fine. You’ll get used to it. If you really can’t take it, stare at your salary slip. You’ll feel much better when you look at how much you’re being paid.”

“Aye, all right.” Li An’an sighed. No matter what, her salary was enough to make others envy her.

“Today’s takeout tastes terrible! I can’t eat at all!” Xiao Zhang sighed.

“I can’t eat this too. It’s too oily!”

Li An’an took out the pickled vegetables she had brought. “Here’s some pickled vegetables I made. If you don’t mind, let’s eat it together!”

She was worried that the staff meal would taste bad, so she had specially asked Butler Chu to bring it. However, when she was cooking previously, she had also made a bottle for butler Chu, and he readily agreed!

“But I don’t really eat pickled vegetables.” Xiao Zhang tentatively scooped a spoonful of soup. After taking a sip, her expression changed. “Mmm, it’s delicious! Give me some more. It’s too delicious. This pickled vegetable is too delicious. It’s spicy and delicious.” Xiao Zhang scooped up a huge spoonful of food.

When the other colleagues saw this, they also took action. They were initially skeptical, but when they had a taste of it, tears immediately welled up in their eyes!

“Heavens, it reminds me of my grandma’s cooking. This is too delicious!”

“Yes, yes. I’ve never eaten such delicious pickled vegetables! An’an, are you an angel?”

“An’an, do you have any more? Make more tomorrow. I’ll buy it!”

“Me too, me too!”

Li An’an was quick-witted. She first filled her bowl before saying, “I’m not selling it, but I can make more for you guys tomorrow. It’s not expensive!” “Thank you so much. Sob, sob, life will be so much better from now on!”

In less than ten minutes, everyone had finished their meal. They then looked at the empty jar, trying to figure out if they could fish out more.

Outside the secretary’s office, Li Cheng walked back with the bento box. He had smelled the fragrance and came over. Alas it was too late. He broke down.

“Li Cheng, you seem to pay a lot of attention to the new secretary.” Bess walked over and frowned at the smell of pickled vegetables. How could anyone like such low-end food?

“I wouldn’t dare. Don’t talk nonsense.” Li Cheng ate heartily. He had a pile of things to do after lunch. Today, he did the death-defying deed of interrupting the CEO’s private moment. The punishment was a mountain of work. How unlucky!

“Did Li An’an make the CEO unhappy just then?” She had heard heavy noises coming from the office. After that, Li Cheng pushed the door open and entered. Li An’an came out with reddened eyes. Hmph, that woman overestimated herself! She didn’t even dare to approach the CEO when he was angry, yet Li An’an rushed to curry favor with him!

“I don’t know about that. If you wish to know, you could ask the CEO. However, he’s going out for a meal with CEO Cheng now. He probably doesn’t have time to answer your question. Also, don’t make things difficult for Li An’an in the future. I’m telling you this for your own good.”

After all, they had been colleagues for so many years. Li Cheng kindly reminded her that while it was a good thing to care about the CEO, it would backfire if she went overboard!

Bess did not take his words to heart and turned arrogantly and walked away.

Li An’an leaned against the door and rubbed her nose. It turned out that Chu Yichen had gone out for dinner. He was lucky. Otherwise, she’d have put so much salt in his food he’d die from it. She’d teach him what to do and what not to do.

“An’an, why are you in a daze? Your phone has been ringing for a long time,” Xiao Zhang asked curiously.

Li An’an didn’t even look at the number and hurriedly answered the call.

A man’s voice came through. “This is Lu Ming. Let’s meet.. I’m just downstairs at your office building!”
