Chapter 57: Cook Me a Meal
world's largest diamond supplier, and the jewelry designers they hire are naturally the world's top talents. Finding a designer from their company is the most reassuring option for her.But most of Zh..."Food," Gu Chi replied briefly. "If you want to repay me, cook a meal for me yourself."
Su Ke Xin widened her eyes, she could hardly believe what she was hearing.
"That's it" she said incredulously, "But my cooking wasn't very good, was it"
She considered her own cooking as "not bad," at most. Compared to Wang Ma's skills, it was the difference between a hotel chef and a street vendor.
This picky eater, Ke Guzhi, actually wants to eat her cooking
"What's wrong" Gu Chi raised his brow, "You don't want to"
"Of course not," Su Keqin hurriedly said, "It's just... 60,000 yuan. How many meals do you want me to cook for you"
"How many dishes do you think would be suitable" Gu Chi asked in return.
Su Kexin was stumped.
For a normal restaurant meal, the most expensive one would be a few hundred dollars at most. 60,000 yuan, she wouldn't have to do hundreds of meals.
"A hundred tons" she asked cautiously.
Watching Su Kexin truly engrossed in thinking about the calculation, Gu Chi only found it adorable, a slight arc rising at the corner of his mouth. "Alright, then one hundred servings."
What would you like to eat
"I don't know." Gu Chi said slowly, "Just choose what you're good at."
"That won't do," Su Kexin thought to herself. Six hundred yuan a meal It must be custom-made for the customer. "I don't have many dishes I can make, so how about this I'll take a look at my recipes tomorrow and try making some for you"
"Good." Gu Chi's lips curled up even more.
The next day was the weekend, but Gu Chi had a meeting and left home early.
After Su Ke Xin got up, she went online and downloaded several recipes, starting to study them one by one.
Her recent observations led her to notice that Gu Chi seemed to like spicy food. She chose three dishes: spicy chicken, pickled fish, and mapo tofu, to test the waters.
After working all morning, she finally finished the first piece. She hurriedly took a photo and sent it to Gu Chi via WeChat, wanting to ask about his preference.
Chi Yao Group, Conference Room.
At this moment, all the department heads of the entire group were tremblingly making reports.
"Mr. Gu, this is the result of our work this quarter," one middle-aged man said, wiping his sweat nervously, "Are you satisfied"
Gu Ci's long fingers flipped through the documents in his hand, his expression indifferent, "With these results, do you think I would be satisfied"
Everyone gasped in fright once again.
"Um... I'm sorry, but could you please tell me what the issue is"
"All of it." Gu Chi uttered two words succinctly, then tossed the file in his hand onto the table with a blank expression. "Redo it."
Silence fell over the entire venue.
This is Gu Chi. Despite being a man in a wheelchair, he, with his resolute and precise leadership, has allowed Ciyao Group to grow into such an independent company in just two years.
"Yes, yes, Mr. Gu," the middle-aged man trembled as he took back the file. The next manager was about to begin his report, trembling slightly, but at that moment—
Ding.
A sharp ring of a cell phone shattered the silence in the conference room.
Suddenly, everyone's faces turned pale with fright, and they looked at each other in panic.
Who on earth would have the audacity to use their phone during a meeting
Just as everyone was dumbfounded, Gu Chi remained calm and composed, glancing at his phone that had lit up on the table.
On the screen, it showed that Su Kexin had sent a photo.
Gu Chi's slender fingers scrolled through his phone, landing on the photos of several dishes and Su Ke Xin's WeChat message:
Which one would you like to eat today, creditor
Accompany it with a slightly obsequious expression.
The people in the meeting room, seeing Gu Chi pick up his phone, finally realized that the phone that just rang wasn't anyone else's—it was Gu Chi's.
They exchanged an unbelievable look.
To know how much of a workaholic Gu Zhi was, he rarely used his phone outside of work. Now, he's actually looking at WeChat during the meeting
Before everyone could recover from the shock, another even more terrifying scene occurred—
Only then did Gu Zhi's gaze fall on his phone, and the alluring thin lips suddenly curled into a slight arc.
Everyone in the audience was stunned, their eyes wide with shock.
Their ice mountain Big Boss, actually smiled
You have to know, the number of people present was established when Zhi Yao was founded with Gu Chi, and they had never seen this man in the wheelchair smile!
On the other side, Su Kexin was busy in the kitchen, completely unaware that the few photos she had casually posted had caused such a stir at Chi Yao Group. She had just flipped through several cookbooks when her phone suddenly rang.
She quickly picked up her phone and saw Gu Chi's WeChat message —
All of them.
So greedy. Su Ke Xin curled her lips and could only eat the sour fish herself, then took advantage of the afternoon to make another one.
When Gu Zhi returned home that evening, he saw a table laden with sumptuous dishes and a woman bustling about in the kitchen.
This seemingly ordinary scene couldn't help but cause Gu Chi to unconsciously twitch the corners of his lips.
"You're back" Su Keqin only noticed Gu Chi at this time, and hurriedly walked out, "Hurry up and wash your hands for dinner. There's quite a bit of food, you can eat as much as you want. If you can't finish it, I can make it into lunch boxes and take it to the company."
"No need." Gu Chi sat down. "I've finished eating."
Su Keixin didn't think much of it. Even if four people were to eat, they wouldn't be able to finish this amount, let alone the two of them.
But it turned out, she had underestimated Gu Chi's appetite. He seemed to have a particularly good appetite today and actually ate all the dishes she had made.
Su Ke Xin was dumbfounded. After all, she and Gu Chi had eaten so many meals together, she really hadn't noticed before that Gu Chi was actually a big eater.
The next day, Sunday, Su Kexin was busy cooking for Gu Chi all day. The weekend passed by quickly like that.
On Monday, Su Kexin went to work.
Su Ke Xin used to really enjoy going to work, but ever since Gu Yi Han became the editor-in-chief, she feels like work is as terrifying as a flood of ferocious beasts.
As if fearing the worst, she had barely settled into her office when Editor-in-Chief Jiang Lili hurried over. "Su Kexin," she said breathlessly, "I have an interview this afternoon that I need to run. Would you mind organizing this document and sending it to the Chief Editor's office"
Su Keixin took it, frowned, "Editor-in-Chief, I have to prepare for tomorrow's interview this afternoon. Could you please trouble someone else with this"
Before Jiang Lili could respond, Qiu Yue, standing beside her, suddenly spoke in a陰陽怪氣 tone. "Oh, Miss Su, please don't act so coy, okay Everyone knows about your complicated relationship with Editor Gu. Why bother pretending"
Su Kexin didn't expect Qiu Yue to suddenly say such a thing. She was stunned for a moment, looking at Qiu Yue, who was her colleague, and frowned involuntarily, "Qiu Yue, don't talk nonsense."
"Come on, am I talking nonsense, or are you guilty" Qiu Yue gave Su Ke Xin a cold glance. "Su Ke Xin, don't treat others like blind people."t dark eye sockets and sallow complexion on both sides of his face that this man was probably a long-time drinker, smoker, and even possibly an addict.Therefore, although he had originally possessed a...
