Jiang Duoduo insisted on cooking alone in the kitchen, so Ji Yue and Gu Yan couldn't go in to help.
Once all the dishes and rice were served, the three men sat down at the table.
Gu Yan smiled and said, "I'm so happy to be able to eat a meal cooked by Duoduo on my first day back from D City."
Ji Yue glanced at Gu Yan and sneered, "The way you say that makes it sound like Duoduo did it all for you alone."
The two bickered again with their chopsticks in hand, while Qin Jue watched from the sidelines, indifferent, hoping they would still be able to speak to each other later.
There were seven or eight dishes on the table, including three braised pork, prawns, and steamed carp, and the rest were stir-fries made by Duoduo.
Their goal was clear: to cook the stir-fried dishes that Duoduo herself would make.
As they secretly jostled to pick up food and put it in their mouths, the entire restaurant fell silent.
Ji Yue and Gu Yan's expressions changed drastically, but when they saw the anticipation in Duo Duo's eyes as she secretly glanced at them, they swallowed their anger.
"tasty."
"It's delicious."
Ji Yue was the first to speak. He resisted the urge to drink water to relieve the salty taste in his mouth and forced himself to praise the product.
Gu Yan, who spoke up later, forced himself to pick up another one in order to show that it was really delicious.
Duoduo, blushing from the praise, said shyly, "I'm glad you like it."
Ji Yue and Gu Yan waited for Duo Duo to try the dishes she had cooked herself. However, apart from eating the shrimp and seafood that Gu Yan had prepared, Duo Duo didn't touch any vegetables at all.
Then, Gu Yan turned his attention to Qin Jue, "Why isn't President Qin eating?"
He now understood why Qin Xue had run away in such a hurry.
They also understood why Duoduo's lovingly prepared bento box ended up in Qin Jue's hands.
Qin Xue must have known all along that Duo Duo's cooking skills were like this... that's why she deliberately let Duo Duo make lunchboxes for Qin Jue.
At this moment, Qin Jue calmly ignored Gu Yan, looked at Duo Duo, and changed the subject, saying, "Fang Chu has already talked to me and can temporarily register you under their company."
Jiang Duoduo was still lost in the beauty of her own culinary skills when Qin Jue spoke. She paused for a second, then looked up at him, "Huh? W-what?"
"Temporarily registered under their company's name?"
"What's the meaning?"
Qin Jue knew that Duoduo was so excited that she was stuttering, so he added, "One-year term."
A year is just the right amount of time; it should be enough for Duoduo to get tired of Shen Chuanyu.
Then, he glanced sideways at Ji Yue and Gu Yan, and humphed. "See that?"
Only he could make Duoduo this happy.
“Why…” Jiang Duoduo’s eyes lit up. Oh my god! Didn’t Qin Jue promise her that he would help her refuse Fang Chu’s invitation?
Why are you still talking to Fang Chu?
Qin Jue wouldn't have done it on purpose, would he?
She felt like she had been tricked, which made her both angry and flustered.
The man slowly picked up a leaf of vegetable, his voice tinged with a hint of indulgence: "I know that the real purpose behind your words that day was for Shen Chuanyu to be placed under Fang Chu's name."
Qin Jue's "No need to thank me, I'm just that nice to you" attitude left Jiang Duoduo speechless.
No, it wasn't that day! Which day?
Was it the day Fang Chu stopped her in front of the elevator at the Qin Group building?
Didn't she make it perfectly clear to Qin Jue that day that she didn't want to become an artist under Fang Chu's management?
Wait a minute... Qin Jue knows she's a fan of Shen Chuanyu, and he's so good to his subordinates, so it's impossible that he misunderstood her and thought she was being sarcastic that day, right?
