Chapter 46 Going to the Canteen

Shang Yuze couldn't help but smile, and a warm feeling of happiness flowed through his heart.

His parents passed away so suddenly that all the burdens fell on him at once, leaving him no time to grieve. At only eighteen years old, he carried the business on his own.

For the past eight years, he has been working day and night, and when he is busy, he can't even have a meal a day.

Like this, someone prepared a meal and sent it to his company, making him feel an unprecedented happiness.

He couldn't wait to open the thermal box. It had five layers, containing rice, grilled chicken wings, grilled spareribs, boiled broccoli, and boiled greens, with a layer of sauce on top.

Shang Yuze asked softly, "Did you do this?"

Gu Qingyue nodded. "I didn't dare to stir-fry because I was afraid of the oil, so I roasted the chicken wings and spareribs in the oven. These two dishes were boiled in water. I made the sauce according to the online tutorial. I tasted it and it's not bad."

She doesn't have any cooking skills. She can only cook porridge and noodles. She can't stir-fry at all.

When she first started learning to cook, she was scalded by the oil splashing from the pot, and the pot almost burned her. Since then, she dared not touch any dishes that needed to be fried in oil.

Shang Yuze smiled and asked, "Have you eaten?"

"Is that considered eating?" Gu Qingyue said a little embarrassedly, "I was just eating while I was cooking. I ate the not-so-pretty grilled chicken wings and spareribs with the steamed rice."

The rice fresh from the pot was so fragrant that she couldn't resist.

Shang Yuze couldn't help but laugh. His little girl was so cute. "Would you like to try the food in the company cafeteria?"

Gu Qingyue was slightly stunned: "You won't eat what I made?"

Did she do something wrong?

Shang Yuze closed the thermal box again and took her hand: "Eat, let's go to the cafeteria to eat. It's a good opportunity to see if there is anything you like in the food."

Gu Qingyue followed him obediently to the cafeteria.

It is now time for dinner. The company's cafeteria is free and there are dozens of dishes to choose from, which are delicious. Various drinks and desserts are also free. Afternoon tea is also provided. When working overtime, the cafeteria also provides free dinner.

The food in the cafeteria is delicious, clean and hygienic, so most employees choose to eat in the cafeteria.

When the two of them arrived at the cafeteria, everyone was shocked.

I've been in the company for so long, and this is the first time I've seen Mr. Shang come to the cafeteria to eat. The most important thing is that he even brought Mrs. Shang with him!

Usually, Shang Yuze’s meals are packed by his special assistant and delivered to the president’s office.

Gu Qingyue was dazzled by the sight and shook their joined hands. "Shang Yuze, your company's dishes are so rich! When will our school be able to make so many dishes?"

I've been eating at the Kyoto University cafeteria for over a year now, and the food is always the same, so I'm tired of it.

Shang Yuze brought her a plate and said, "Pick what you like."

As soon as Gu Qingyue came over, the employees in front made way for her.

"Mrs. Shang, you take it first."

Gu Qingyue quickly waved her hands: "No, no, you guys take yours, don't worry about me."

After getting the food, Shang Yuze took her to a place with fewer people and sat down.

He arranged the food in the thermos box one by one, then took out his cell phone and took a photo.

Gu Qingyue bit her chopsticks and said, "Shang Yuze, what are you doing?"

Shang Yuze tapped the screen of his phone and said calmly, "To commemorate the first time my wife brought me lunch."

Gu Qingyue's face turned slightly red, and she felt a little shy.

Shang Yuze picked up a piece of pork ribs and put it into his mouth. It was crispy and tender.

Gu Qingyue asked expectantly, "How does it taste?"

Shang Yuze swallowed the meat in his mouth: "It's delicious."

Gu Qingyue's eyebrows curved with joy when she received the praise.

Although the two of them were sitting in a secluded place, the place where Shang Yuze was was the center of attention.

After all, it wouldn't make sense for workers not to greet their boss when they saw him. Moreover, they also wanted to get a closer look at Madam Shang.

It's not common for the president's wife to come to the company. If I miss it this time, I don't know how long I will have to wait for the next time.

"Hello, Mr. Shang, and Mrs. Shang."

For a moment, they were surrounded by greetings, and some senior executives even came over to exchange a few words.

"Mr. Shang, did Mrs. Shang make this lunch box for you?"

Shang Yuze's eyebrows were gentle, the corners of his narrow eyes were upturned, and he smiled very beautifully: "Yes, my wife sent it to me specially, so I took her to the restaurant for dinner."

"Mr. Shang, you and your wife have a really good relationship."

Gu Qingyue bit her lips, her face flushed.

Why does it feel like this man has become a conspicuous bag?

Is it her illusion?

Shang Yuze ate up all the food that Gu Qingyue brought him, put her chopsticks down, and asked, "Are you full?"

"Yeah." Gu Qingyue wiped her mouth with a tissue.

Shang Yuze packed up the thermal box and picked up the dinner plate: "Let's go."

After walking out of the cafeteria, Gu Qingyue saw a milk tea shop next to her and said in surprise, "You actually sell milk tea here."

Shang Yuze looked at her, his phoenix eyes softly smiling: "It's free. What do you want to drink? Ask the waiter to make it for you."

Gu Qingyue's bright eyes curved slightly: "Shang Yuze, you are such a generous boss."

"Only when employees taste the sweetness can they work harder. The better the company's performance, the richer their meals and afternoon tea will be, and the bigger their bonuses will be." Shang Yuze took her hand and walked towards the milk tea shop.

"No wonder you can be the boss, the situation is just different."

The sensor door opened automatically, and as the two of them walked in, they attracted countless gazes.

The people in the queue at the front all made way tacitly: "Mr. Shang, Mrs. Shang, you go first."

Gu Qingyue refused repeatedly: "No need."

"It's just a cup of milk tea. We don't have anything to do. It will be fine later." Everyone said enthusiastically.

"Thank you." Gu Qingyue did not refuse. If she and Shang Yuze stayed here all the time, they would feel restrained.

It would be better to get the milk tea earlier and leave earlier.

"You are so kind, ma'am."

Gu Qingyue ordered a cup of taro milk tea. As soon as they left, everyone gathered together and started talking.

"The man is handsome and the woman is beautiful, they are a perfect match."

"Mrs. Shang is really beautiful, a great beauty with a strong complexion, just like that fox demon. One look at her can seduce you. She is so beautiful that it's offensive. Even a woman likes her."

"Mr. Shang is so lucky. He actually managed to take such a beautiful girl home."

"Mrs. Shang is very talented. She developed the Y1 chip. In my opinion, this time, Mr. Shang benefited from Mrs. Shang's influence."

"How did you know that?"

"My boss said so."

“…”

Today the company was full of gossip about Mrs. Shang coming to the company to deliver lunch to Mr. Shang.
