FOOD

Gong Ouyang picked up his phone and scrolled through the recent calls. His finger stopped at the call he made an hour back.

That damned woman!

After all he did for her, she dares to ask him why she was supposed to call him?

He went to that island for her and even magnanimously opened his property for her relatives, and she did not even say thanks!

She is bold.

Hmph!

He'll teach her later, how to be thankful of him spending his time on someone as insignificant as her.

He picked up the company phone and dialled his secretary's number, "Did she get started?" he asked without any preamble.

"Yes sir. Miss Shi is now in the kitchen preparing your dinner."

"Hmm," he acknowledged and hung up.

He came back to S city early in the morning and has been working ever since. He managed to eat some unappetising food, but now he was really looking forward to dinner.

"Mr Gong, the meeting will start in a few minutes, everyone is ready and waiting for you" his assistant reminded him.

This meeting was the main reason why he had to come early today. Picking up another file on his desk, he left the room closely followed by his assistant.

After one and half hour, the meeting broke up for their dinner.

The room slowly filled up with cafeteria waiters and waitresses bringing in dishes cooked by some of S city's best chefs.

The executives sitting in the room were old and experienced and knew about Gong Ouyang's picky personality. They have seen him firing chefs from the board room just because some dish didn't look good.

When one waitress served Gong Ouyang his dinner, everyone discreetly kept an eye on their president's reaction.

Will another one be fired this evening?

When the waitress served a plateful of egg fried rice, almost everyone unanimously raised their eyebrows in surprise.

Forget getting getting fired, this cook will lose his life!

But, once again, Gong Ouyang surprised everyone by eating the rice without any complaints. Not only that, he did not even look up once and completed every last bit of it and asked for seconds!

One brave executive couldn't help but murmur that his wife could make better fried rice than that.

The other executives sitting nearby couldn't help but nod their head in agreement.

Gong Ouyang, on the other hand, started polishing off his second plate. The delicate smell of eggs and scallions teased his appetite and very fluffy mouthful made him crave for another bite.

This woman, despite all her flaws, really knew how to grasp his stomach.

He should reward her.

Sending message to his secretary, telling her to make Xiaonian wait in his office. Gong Ouyang then turned back to the table. The meeting resumed for another two hours.

His mood was satisfied making the other executives question their boss. 

Why was he in such a good mood and why was he looking at his phone every now and then. As if waiting for a response, like a kid who just confessed their love.
