Chapter 77: Pastries from the Lady Boss
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After Lin Xiaowan got to know Hong Minhua, she realized that Hong Minhua was really gentle and approachable. Hong Minhua did not put on air at all even though she was a big shot in the industry. For this reason, she was much more relaxed when getting along with Hong Minhua.
Lin Xiaowan pouted and said, “I’m sure you won’t be willing to do that, Grandma Hong.”
“Grandma Hong might not be willing, but Teacher Hong might,” Hong Minhua said jokingly with a laugh. Despite her words, it was just as Lin Xiaowan said; she was definitely not willing to do it. After all, in her eyes, Lin Xiaowan was very cute, playful, and sensible. Lin Xiaowan even knew how to make various kinds of pastries. Most people would be willing to let Lin Xiaowan do whatever she wanted.
After eating a meat floss bread roll, Hong Minhua said, “In any case, you just started taking art lessons. Even when you don’t have classes, you have to remember to practice, understand?”
“I know,” Lin Xiaowan nodded vigorously and said, “I really like drawing and painting. I’m not doing it half-heartedly. I’m serious about learning, and I usually practice when I don’t have classes.”
Hong Minhua patted Lin Xiaowan’s head affectionately and said, “That’s good. Alright, let’s start our lesson.”
At the Huo Corporation’s headquarters.
Huo Zheng read the message and shook his head with a smile. Then, he dialed Assistant Song’s number and asked the latter to get something from the first floor.
Assistant Song had run this errand many times so he knew what it was. He did not ask any questions and happily agreed.
Because Huo Zheng usually sent Assistant Song to get the pastries, Lin Xiaowan would usually also include a share for Assistant Song. She was unaware that Huo Zheng had more than one assistant so she was also unaware that Assistant Song’s colleagues would look at him jealously and curiously every time she sent pastries over.
Huo Zheng was not usually strict with his subordinates as long they did not neglect their work and completed their work on time. In general, the work environment was relatively relaxed. For this reason, Assistant Song’s colleagues were very unrestrained and would often threaten or bribe him to share the pastries with them. After all, who would not want to try the lady boss’ cooking?
When the receptionist on the first floor received the takeout boxes, she called the president’s office. Then, she quickly brought her phone out and took two photos as she waited for Assistant Song to arrive.
Initially, when the receptionists first received the pink takeout boxes and saw that it was for Huo Zheng, they assumed that it was a gift from some rich young woman. After all, there were cases of rich young women giving Huo Zheng gifts in the past. However, when they informed Assistant Song about it, he would tell her to throw them away or return them if they were too expensive.
However, the first time this happened, Assistant Song personally came down to receive the package with a smile on his face. He even told them to inform him immediately the next time they received similar packages. Most importantly, he told them that if the person who delivered the package was a beautiful young woman, they had to try and make the other party stay no matter what.
Initially, the receptionists did not understand. When it happened the second time, they finally could not help but ask Assistant Song about it. When they found out that the lady boss personally made the pastries, they could not help but look forward to the pastries. It was a pity they did not have a share of it. They were really envious of Assistant Song who was given similar treatment as their boss; they also wanted the lady boss’ pastries.
However, the receptionist on the first floor was unaware of Assistant Song’s pain and joy in the president’s office. Every time there was a package for Huo Zheng, his colleagues would gather around him.
The receptionists were very enthusiastic and curious. Every time there was a package for Huo Zheng, they would wait for Assistant Song to come down, hoping he would open the package to let them have a look. After that, they would all take photos. n0𝒱𝖾𝐥𝐮𝑆𝑏.𝒸0𝐌
With this, the number of people who wanted to eat the lady boss’ cooking grew day by day.
Alas, Lin Xiaowan did not personally send the packages until now. When everyone discussed this matter, they could only dig out information from a few people who attended the company’s annual gala.
When Assistant Song arrived at the front desk, three people on duty gathered around him immediately.
“Assistant Song, you must show us what’s in the package today!”
They had already turned their cameras on.
Assistant Song was also very cooperative. He opened the package so the others could take a look before he briskly walked to the elevator.
After that, the receptionist quickly reported her findings in the group chat.
[Receptionist: Ahh! The lady boss sent snacks for afternoon tea again! They’re meat floss bread rolls. The fillings and the dressing are really generous!]
[Employee 1: Who’s jealous?]
[Employee 2: Me! Me! I’m so envious of those working in the president’s office! I’m so envious of Assistant Song! [crying emoji)]
The receptionist almost cried tears of envy as she continued chatting.
[Receptionist: Moreover, I saw the portion that the lady boss gave Assistant Song today is much more generous than what she gave the boss! The boss actually lost today!]
[Employee 3: Ah! I’m going crazy! I want to eat the pastries made by the lady boss!]
[Employee 2: Since Assistant has such a big portion, it doesn’t matter if I ask for a bite, right?!]
