066 She looks like Manman when she loses weight.
Huo Yanxi looked up at him, his expression displeased. "Pei Yan, watch your words."
It is not proper manners for an adult to criticize a child.
Pei Yan chuckled and said, "I didn't mean anything by it, I just think that Teacher Xie's cooking is good for you."
After saying that, he looked at Huo Yanxi and noticed that he had gained weight, but not that he looked haggard.
"I have to say, Mr. Huo seems to have gained some weight since he's been eating Teacher Xie's cooking for the past two weeks."
Previously, Huo Yanxi's chin was pointed, giving him a somewhat emaciated appearance.
But in the past two weeks, Teacher Xie has been cooking all sorts of different dishes for President Huo, which has made him quite fat.
Her pointed chin has disappeared.
Huo Yanxi had already decided not to eat Xie Yaoyao's cooking, but Pei Yan was oblivious and kept praising how delicious Xie Yaoyao's cooking was.
The secretariat is envious of President Huo's special treatment every day.
"Shut up, aren't you busy? Don't you have anything else to do?" Huo Yanxi interrupted Pei Yan's rambling.
Pei Yan: "...I'm going out to do some work."
After saying that, he quickly made his escape.
The office fell silent. Huo Yanxi stared at the documents, but could no longer concentrate.
He had been running around all morning and had used up some of his energy. In addition, he hadn't eaten breakfast, so he was now hungry and feeling unwell.
He has difficulty concentrating on his work.
He glanced at the investigation documents on his desk and picked them up to look through them.
The first thing that catches the eye is Xie Yaoyao's ID photo, her chubby face almost filling the entire photo.
She's not ugly at all; her features are very delicate. If she lost weight, she would be very beautiful.
For no apparent reason.
Huo Yanxi imagined what Xie Yaoyao would look like when she lost weight, and at the same time, a face appeared in his mind.
It turned out to be Chi Xiaoman.
Huo Yanxi quickly stopped, not daring to think about it any further.
He must be crazy. How could he think that Xie Yaoyao, once she loses weight, would resemble Chi Xiaoman?
Huo Yanxi slammed the investigation file shut and stood up, irritated.
He paced anxiously back and forth in his office a few times, convinced that he must be hungry to be having such wild thoughts.
He pressed the intercom, "Pei Yan, have the cafeteria bring the food up."
Pei Yan was taken aback. "President Huo, isn't Lao Lin bringing food over today?"
For the past two weeks, Lao Lin has been bringing food over at mealtimes, and he assumed it would be the same today.
Huo Yanxi said coldly, "Old Lin will no longer bring meals over."
After saying that, he slammed down the phone.
Pei Yan was stunned. Then he realized that Huo Yanxi's condition today was not right, as if he had returned to what he was like more than half a month ago.
Even though he acted normally, there was an inexplicable aura of madness about him.
Could it be... that Mr. Huo and Teacher Xie had a fight, and Teacher Xie stopped cooking for Mr. Huo?
Pei Yan was completely baffled and naturally dared not ask Huo Yanxi, so he had no choice but to go to the cafeteria to get his food himself.
As soon as I got to the elevator, I saw Lao Lin carrying a thermos as he came out of the elevator.
When Lao Lin saw him, he quickly handed him the thermos. "Secretary Pei, this is from Butler Jian. It seems that President Huo and Teacher Xie had a little conflict. Butler Jian said that you could take it to the cafeteria and refill it in a bowl."
Pei Yan: "What's going on here now?"
"Who knows? Mr. Huo is a picky eater. He's finally gained some weight recently, so I hope he doesn't lose it all again. Could you please repackage it on a plate? I'll take the thermos back."
Pei Yan had nothing to say.
He went to the cafeteria, repackaged the food, carried it upstairs, and knocked on the door of the president's office.
Huo Yanxi had just finished a video conference when he smelled the aroma of food and looked up.
Pei Yan placed the chopsticks on the plate. "Mr. Huo, come and eat while it's hot."
Huo Yanxi got up and walked over. On the table were the cafeteria's serving trays.
But the dishes looked familiar, and didn't seem like the work of a cafeteria chef.
He pursed his thin lips and asked, "Is the cafeteria serving fried fish fillets today?"
Pei Yan saw the golden and crispy fried fish fillets on his plate and wondered where they would get fried fish fillets for lunch.
But what he said was, "Yes, the fried fish fillets look fresh today, Mr. Huo, would you like to try some?"
Huo Yanxi picked up his chopsticks and took just one bite, and he could tell that it was Xie Yaoyao's cooking.
That's strange.
Even though he only ate Xie Yaoyao's cooking for half a month, the taste was deeply etched into his memory.
He can tell the difference just by tasting it.
On the contrary, he doesn't quite remember the taste of the food that Chi Xiaoman cooked.
This fact terrified him.
He slammed his chopsticks on the table with a "bang," glaring sharply at Pei Yan. "Pei Yan, tell me, is this really food from the cafeteria?"
Pei Yan hadn't expected Huo Yanxi to get so angry, so he had no choice but to confess honestly.
"No, it was Lao Lin who sent it. He said that Teacher Xie worked hard to make it."
Huo Yanxi's face was ashen, his imposing presence radiating authority. "Take it out and throw it away. Go get some food from the cafeteria."
He couldn't get used to Xie Yaoyao's cooking, and he would never let her control his stomach.
Pei Yan: "How about we make do with this meal? Mr. Huo, we did pay for it after all."
It's said that Teacher Xie spends 10,000 yuan to cook a meal. Wouldn't it be a waste not to eat it?
Huo Yanxi said with a stern face, "Take it away."
Helpless, Pei Yan had no choice but to take the tray out and get food from the cafeteria.
Huo Yanxi took only one bite, then put down his chopsticks and silently returned to his desk to continue working.
Pei Yan couldn't understand him.
Teacher Xie's cooking was delicious and visually appealing, but he wouldn't eat it; he insisted on eating the cafeteria food instead.
Now the cafeteria has brought him his food, but he only takes one bite and then stops eating.
Is Mr. Huo trying to become an immortal?
Pei Yan took the food out and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. He couldn't understand Huo Yanxi anymore.
The secretary's office saw Pei Yan coming in and out, bringing out two meals, but he didn't touch them.
"Secretary Pei, is President Huo going through another period of anorexia?" the secretary asked with a worried expression.
Pei Yan shook his head. "President Huo is just making things difficult for himself this time. I don't understand, I just don't understand."
The group looked at each other, sensing that night was about to fall again.
When Huo Yanxi went through anorexia, he would become very irritable, and even though he had tried to control himself, it still terrified them.
When Pei Yan went downstairs to return the trays, he called Uncle Jian to ask what was going on with President Huo.
When Uncle Jian heard that Huo Yanxi could tell it was Teacher Xie's cooking, he told him to take it out and throw it away. He felt anxious and distressed.
"What should we do?"
Pei Yan asked, "Did President Huo have a fight with Teacher Xie?"
"No, they went to Disneyland together yesterday and were fine when they came back."
Pei Yan couldn't get any information from Uncle Jian and didn't know what to do.
Xie Yaoyao was eating in the restaurant when Uncle Jian hung up the phone and walked into the restaurant.
"Teacher Xie, Mr. Huo didn't eat the food that was delivered; he had it thrown away."
Xie Yaoyao was stunned for a few seconds, feeling inexplicably sad. "I understand. It's okay. Even if he doesn't eat my cooking, there are other people who will cook for him."
After much hesitation, Uncle Jian decided to tell the truth.
