Seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, he became a little anxious. There were already so many people, and when the office building staff left at six o'clock, there would be even more people. He wasn't sure if he would be able to buy anything then.
Fang Jie remained silent.
Could it be that Sister Fang wants to go directly there and use her connections to cut in line to buy a boxed lunch?
However, the next second...
"Go line up and buy me two portions: one braised pork ribs and one stir-fried broccoli and shrimp."
The assistant hesitated for a moment, "But, Sister Fang, with so many people, Sister Shiyi should limit the number of purchases, allowing each person to buy only two."
Fang Jie: "......"
"Why don't you come with me to queue up? That way we can buy four servings." She suggested, but when she looked up, she saw that Fang's face had darkened upon hearing this.
Left with no other choice.
"Okay, I'll go."
She had wanted to buy two portions herself tonight, but it seems hopeless now.

Shi Yi saw Grandpa Tan, whom she hadn't seen for a few days, come forward, and it was his turn in line.
"Uncle Tan, you're here! What kind of boxed lunch would you like? Limited to two per person."
The two aunties from before were following behind him.
Grandpa Tan chuckled in response, "Hey, it's a good thing Aunt Zhang told me you sell boxed lunches here, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to find you."
He glanced at the sign on the stall and exclaimed, "Wow, they even have king crab!"
“My grandson will definitely like this, so let’s have one king crab and one braised pork.”
He has bad teeth, so he likes to eat soft foods.
This braised pork looks delicious; the pieces even trembled slightly when I picked it up from the box, indicating it was stewed until very tender.
"Oh my, just like Lao Tan, I was so hungry for that braised pork you were eating at noon."
After Zhang Fengjuan caught up, she spoke.
Yu Mei, who was following behind, also came over.
"My daughter says she'll take anything, I really don't know what to choose, they all seem pretty good."
She was conflicted.
Zhang Fengjuan also helped her look at the other dishes.
"That braised fish chunks look pretty good, as does the beef rice bowl and the black pork ribs. If you want something lighter, try the broccoli and shrimp stir-fry."
While Shi Yi was packing Zhang Fengjuan's food, Yu Mei leaned over to take a closer look. "My daughter likes to eat shrimp, so let's have a plate of braised shrimp in oil, and a plate of braised fish chunks, since my husband likes to eat fish."
"Oh dear, you're even thinking about sleeping with your own man, why don't you order what you like to eat!" Zhang Fengjuan couldn't stand it anymore.
She always felt that Yu Mei always considered others but not herself.
“Actually, I love all kinds of food, I’m not picky,” Yu Mei said with a smile.
In her opinion, it wasn't that she didn't consider herself; it was that she was truly open to anything and never picky about food, as long as it tasted good.
Zhang Fengjuan is different; she puts herself first, even after having children. She prioritizes herself above all else.
The king crab and braised pork that she ordered today were also what she wanted to eat.
Of course, we can share it when we get back, and everyone can eat it together.
"That's settled then. Let's go, don't delay the young lady's business." Seeing that Yu Mei had finished packing, Zhang Fengjuan pulled her away.
Shi Yi works non-stop, packing and packing, she's practically a human machine.
When I looked up because I was tired, I happened to meet a pair of eyes.
It looks somewhat familiar.
Then, the man suddenly lowered his head.
Fang Jie's assistant, Xu Ning? What's she doing here?
"Why are you here?" Shi Yi asked her.
Xu Ning was startled when she realized she had been recognized.
"Sister Shiyi, you recognized me?" Xu Ning pulled down her mask, no longer trying to hide herself.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm just here to buy a boxed lunch. This boxed lunch is especially delicious!"
What she said seemed sincere and didn't sound fake.
"I'd like a serving of braised pork ribs and a serving of broccoli and shrimp stir-fry."
