Chapter 246 Mandarin ducks playing in the water

Li Qingwen sat on the sofa and opened a delicious spicy hot pot. The fragrant smell instantly filled the entire office.

Zhou Yongan looked at his portion and pushed it to Li Qingwen: "Since you like it so much, I'll give you both."

Li Qingwen shook his head: "Your stomach is growling."

She enthusiastically opened the lid of Zhou Yongan's portion, and a strong spicy aroma wafted into his nose.

Li Qingwen handed him chopsticks that had been smoked with sulfur.

Zhou Yongan held it in his hand, frowned, and slowly broke the two chopsticks.

Li Qingwen ate spicy hot pot and chicken clavicles at the same time. When she felt it was too salty, she took a sip of milk tea. The taste made her feel refreshed for the whole afternoon.

Zhou Yongan picked up his chopsticks and stirred the food that was randomly thrown together. He knew it tasted good, but as he had not eaten junk food for more than ten years, it was a little hard for him to swallow it.

Li Qingwen wiped it with a tissue and asked Zhou Yongan, "Why don't you eat?"

Hearing this, Zhou Yongan forced a smile and said, "Eat..."

Zhou Yongan took a few bites and tasted the chicken clavicle briefly. He also took two sips of the milk tea and then put it down.

Li Qingwen wiped his mouth clean and saw that he had so much left: "Don't you have no appetite for eating with me? Then don't force yourself in the future. You don't need to come here at noon."

Zhou Yongan picked up the chopsticks again and finished the whole bowl of spicy hot pot and almost finished the chicken collarbone, leaving only a cup of milk tea.

He said, “I’ll drink this slowly.”

Li Qingwen packed up the lunch box and prepared to take it away and throw it away.

Zhou Yongan volunteered, "I'll just throw it away when I go downstairs later."

Li Qingwen looked at him and said, "Let's go."

Zhou Yongan: “…”

She handed him the trash.

Zhou Yongan took over. Seeing her decisiveness, he felt that she was still angry: "Do you believe..."

Li Qingwen interrupted him: "I'm going to take a lunch break, come see me tomorrow."

In the evening, Li Qingwen returned to Jiyue Mansion after ten o'clock.

Zhou Yongan saw that the lights in her house were on, so he went over and rang the doorbell, but Li Qingwen didn't open the door for him.

The next morning, Li Qingwen went out half an hour earlier than usual, and Zhou Yongan was disappointed again.

In the morning, Zhou Yongan brought his team to the 17th floor of Huayu, found an empty meeting room, and started working wirelessly.

The meeting with Huayu’s team lasted until half past twelve. When I came out of the meeting room, I saw Lin Sen at the door.

Lin Sen told him: "Vice President Wen has already ordered lunch and invites you to go upstairs and eat now."

Zhou Yongan didn't understand what Li Qingwen was doing. He had searched Huayu all morning but couldn't find her, but now she asked Lin Sen to come down and call him.

When he was about to meet Li Qingwen and ask her what was going on, there was only his lunch in the office - a bowl of spicy hot pot and milk tea, and Li Qingwen was not there.

"What about her?"

Lin Sen realized that he had forgotten to say, "Vice President Wen is still meeting a client outside."

Zhou Yongan looked at the lunch on the table and asked Lin Sen: "Have you eaten?"

Lin Sen thanked and said, "I have eaten. Vice President Wen ordered this especially for you."

Zhou Yongan's eyes were like a ten-meter-long knife, slashing at Lin Sen: "When you followed me before, when did you ever see me eat something like this?"

Lin Sen shrank his neck nervously and pushed his glasses up.

Zhou Yongan sat down and said, "Next time she asks you to order these things, don't buy them. Change your mindset."

Lin Sen quickly expressed his opinion: "Don't worry, I will remind Vice President Wen to change your taste tomorrow."

Zhou Yongan opened the box, frowned, and looked at the person at the door: "Are you not leaving yet?"

Lin Sen said anxiously, "Vice President Wen asked me to watch you pick up the trash after you finish eating."

Zhou Yongan: “…”

In the afternoon, Li Qingwen came back from outside and appeared on the 17th floor. He took a special look at Huayun's team and prepared a fruit salad for everyone.

Zhou Yongan came out of the conference room and asked her, "I rang the doorbell last night. Didn't you hear it?"

Li Qingwen said: "I heard it. I'm taking a shower."

Zhou Yongan stared at her expression and asked, "When did you leave this morning? You didn't even have breakfast."

Li Qingwen said calmly, "We are organizing a senior citizen care event in Renhe District this morning. I am the deputy general manager, so I have to go there early."

After Li Qingwen finished speaking, Zhou Yongan fell silent.

There seems to be nothing wrong with what he said.

Zhou Yongan asked her tentatively: "Then, can I have rice for lunch tomorrow?"

Li Qingwen glanced at him and said, "Oh, so you don't like spicy hot pot?"

Zhou Yongan: "Have you forgotten that I don't eat unhealthy food?"

"I saw you were eating very happily these past two days. I didn't notice."

"..."

Zhao Qing asked Zhou Yongan to go to Greenland Restaurant in the evening, saying that she wanted to apologize in person for what happened the night before.

Zhou Yongan happened to have a few candidates to introduce to Zhao Qing, so he did not refuse and went to the meeting alone.

Li Qingwen happened to have an appointment with a client to have dinner at Greenland in the evening. The client had sharper eyes than her and saw Zhou Yongan and Zhao Qing, and motioned for her to look.

Customer: "I'm a little confused. Some say the second son of the Zhou family is pursuing you, Vice President Wen, and some say he is pursuing Ms. Zhao from the Datata Group. Which one is it?"

Li Qingwen smiled and said, "Maybe neither."

She picked up the menu, looked at the dishes one by one, and finally called the waiter to add another dish. When the dish came, Li Qingwen asked the waiter to bring it to Zhou Yongan's table.

Zhou Yongan turned around and found Li Qingwen there. Seeing that it was a bowl of soup, he called the waiter: "What kind of soup is this?"

Waiter: "This is our signature soup - Mandarin Duck Playing in the Water."

It is mainly made of mandarin duck scallops and chicken breast, supplemented by mushrooms and winter bamboo shoots, and is named Mandarin Ducks and Dragon and Phoenix Soup.

Zhao Qing looked at Zhou Yongan's changing expression and asked, "Do you want me to explain this to your ex-wife?"

Zhou Yongan then relaxed his expression and said with a smile: "What's there to explain? It's just a dish. Don't think too much about it. Look at those handsome guys just now. Which one are they most satisfied with?"

Zhao Qing smiled slightly: "I haven't met them yet, so how can I say for sure? I'll make dinner appointments with them one by one in the next few days, and I'll tell you if there's good news."

After dinner, Li Qingwen had left the restaurant at some point, so Zhou Yongan had no choice but to go back to Jiyue Mansion to find her.

He saw Li Qingwen's car coming back and knew she was in the house, but she still refused to open the door for him.

The next morning Li Qingwen went out early.

When she arrived at the company, Zhou Yongan sent her a message to explain the rumors in the circle in recent days.

Li Qingwen received the message but did not reply.

At around 11:30 am, eight lunches were delivered to Huayun’s conference room on the 17th floor.

Eight servings of spicy hot pot, eight servings of grilled sausages and gluten, and eight large cups of iced milk tea.

The staff of Huayun, except Zhou Yongan, were all excited: "Did Mr. Zhou order this for us?"

"That should be the case. He doesn't seem excited at all."

Zhou Yongan picked up the tea in his hand, expressionless: "Vice President Wen invited everyone to eat this, do you like it?"

Staff: "I like it. Vice President Wen is so nice!"

Zhou Yongan: "If you like it so much, eat my share too."
