C22 My Money Falls from Heaven
The phone rang. It was Lu Bei Chen's inside line asking her to order lunch.
It was fine if she was hungry, but if she was hungry, she had to order a meal for him. She could only look at the food and not eat it. It was a thin blue mushroom!
Twenty minutes later, Yu Qi took the food from the delivery boy and turned around to deliver it to the office.
Lu Bei Chen was still reading the email, asking her to put down the afternoon meal and go out first.
Yu Qi walked out of the office looking back every few steps.
Today, Lu Bei Chen wanted to order the First-Rate House's beef sauce set meal. She loved it the most!
Yu Qi sat back on the chair and touched his stomach. He did not feel hungry. Instead, he felt pain in his stomach.
After she went to college, she stayed in the school dormitory. Other than the tuition fees, she did not ask for a single cent from the Yu Family. Her life was all dependent on working or tutoring.
It was common that she could not eat, so her stomach was not too good, and she always lost her temper.
"I also want to feed you. It's just that I don't have any money! Sigh, following me is really hard on you."
After he finished speaking, he even sighed.
He touched his phone and hesitated whether or not he should borrow some from his friend.
She opened her phone book and glanced at her contact list. Even her best friend could not open her mouth to borrow money.
She knocked her head on the table.
He was about to starve to death, yet he still held that pitiful self-respect. How could self-respect be treated as food?
Borrow!
Why couldn't she just pay her salary?
Yu Qi finally decided to borrow money. Just as he was about to press the call button, the phone suddenly rang!
F * ck!
Who was it?
Thirty seconds later, Yu Qi entered the office with his head lowered. "CEO, what's wrong?"
Just as he picked up the phone, he heard Lu Bei Chen's gloomy voice say in a crisp voice, "Get in here."
Then, she rolled in without any backbone.
Lu Bei Chen's face darkened and his voice became tense. "Did you order something for humans to eat?"
Yu Qi's eyes fell on the open food box and blinked. "I ordered the beef with sauce from the first-grade house according to your request."
The First-Rate Room's takeout was not an ordinary takeout. Every serving was freshly made and delivered. Not to mention the fresh and clean ingredients, but even the food box was custom-made to ensure that the taste of the food would not be affected by the food when it was delivered to the customers.
Lu Bei Chen frowned. "This is not the beef with sauce from the First-Rate House."
"This is really the stewed beef from the First-Rate House. Look at the food boxes. There isn't any outside the food boxes from the First-Rate House." Yu Qi tried to defend himself. Otherwise, Lu Bei Chen would have thought that she was trying to make money out of the lunch fee.
"The taste is not right."
"What's wrong?"
"You can try it yourself."
Yu Qi did not think too much about it. He picked up a piece of beef with the chopsticks from the food box and put it in his mouth. In an instant, he felt like he was in heaven.
It was really... too delicious.
Just now, he had almost drooled just by looking at her. Now that he had a bite, he could die without regrets.
"This is really the beef with sauce from the First-Rate House, but..." She paused for a moment and carefully savored the aftertaste. "The taste seems to be a little different."
There were not many changes. Only regular customers from the First-Rate House would be able to notice it. Yu Qi could tell that she often pestered Lu Bei Chen to take her to the First-Rate House when she was in middle school.
No one was more familiar with the taste of the fragrant beef with sauce from the First-Rate House than her.
Lu Bei Chen leaned against the sofa and did not say a word. He glanced at her coldly.
Yu Qi knew how much Lu Bei Chen liked to nitpick. He did not dare to argue anymore. He put down his chopsticks and stood aside. He whispered, "Maybe it's because the chef has changed. Do you want me to change your restaurant?"
The man's lips moved slightly, and his adam's apple moved. He squeezed out a single word, "Yes."
"Then I will throw this away." Yu Qi bent down to pick up the food.
"Yu Qi, did my money fall from the sky?"
"Huh?"
