He said with a face of sudden realization, "Oh, so it was my phone ringing..."

With that, he took out his phone and looked at it...

Sure enough!

It was a call from Manager Wei Tonghang.

Cai Bo, the newbie, glanced at the caller ID and immediately panicked, anxiously saying, "Han, it's the manager... He must have called to ask why we haven't returned yet, right?! What should we do? Should we... go back to the company now..."

After all, if the manager scolds them, they would be in for it!

If it weren't for the fact that all the documents were with Jiang Han, he felt he would have already turned around and headed back to report to the company.

But the experienced Jiang Han was indifferent!

He knew the manager's temperament well.

So there was no big deal!

With an attitude of "even if the sky falls, I've got it covered," he smiled and patted Cai Bo on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I'll talk to the manager..."

Having said that, he swiped his phone screen and picked up the call.

Once connected, Wei Tonghang's voice came from the other end, "Jiang Han! You and Cai Bo are out of the train station now, right? Are you on your way back to the company?"

"Ah... Manager, I have to tell you, I'm stuck in traffic, it might be a while before I get to the company, I'm really anxious... "

Jiang Han instantly turned into a drama king, with a face showing a "I'm anxious too, but powerless" expression.

Damn~

What else could he do?!

Beside him, Cai Bo watched Jiang Han lying to the boss without batting an eye, his expression convincingly in place, and felt his understanding of the workplace was totally overturned...

Internally he shouted: Oscar owes Han an award!

Of course, he also couldn't help but sweat for himself and Han!

The surrounding people, not just Cai Bo, were surprised.

The customers queuing in front and behind also cursed inwardly when they heard Jiang Han's words.

This guy is ruthless, for a meal he dares to fool the boss...

But honestly, if it were them, they'd also choose food; can the boss's meal compare to Boss Huang's cooking?

On the other end, Wei Tonghang said confusedly: "It's only 4:40 now, the evening peak hasn't started yet! How come there's traffic?"

"Who knows? Maybe there's an accident ahead... Cai Bo and I are also anxious, but there's nothing we can do! We probably won't make it back to the company today... Don't worry, we'll definitely come to see you first thing tomorrow morning for a report... Okay then, let's leave it at that... My phone's running out of battery, so I won't say much more to you, see you tomorrow..."

With that, he happily hung up the phone, muttering, "Great, finally sorted it out, now I can queue for food in peace."

Isn't it nice!

But why are these people looking at him so strangely?

Jiang Han noticed the other customers occasionally glancing at him, he touched his face in confusion, could it be they recognized him as the food blogger?!

"Han, we don't have to go back, it's really okay?" Cai Bo was still a bit worried.

"Relax, I've sorted it out, just chill!"

Having queued for almost 10 minutes, it was finally Jiang Han's turn, and he rattled off a string of orders: "Two servings of steamed spareribs with lotus leaf glutinous rice, two bowls of nourishing fish soup, two servings of stir-fried crabs with rice cakes, two duck necks, two pig trotters, four beef dumplings, a roast duck, and a processed duck rack, that's it, we'll eat here."

Once he finished ordering.

The guests behind him in the queue all subtly sighed in relief.

Thank goodness!

He didn't order all the roast ducks!

Seeing him order so much, Cai Bo worried they might not finish and advised, "Han, isn't this a bit too much! There's only the two of us, we might not be able to finish, maybe we should cut down a bit?"

Jiang Han was nonchalant, "Too much? I think it's still too little! If it's not enough, we'll have to queue again later and won't get any."

Cai Bo: ... That's a bit much!

Ding Suqin politely said, "Sorry, we don't serve the dumplings in the evening, only in the morning."

"Ah... Is that so! Then forget the dumplings!" Jiang Han couldn't help but show a trace of regret on his face.

"Alright, a total of 528 yuan, both WeChat and Alipay are accepted."

"Okay!"

Jiang Han scanned the code to make the payment with his phone.

"WeChat payment received, 528 yuan."

This price made Cai Bo feel a bit of a pinch, he couldn't help but mutter softly, "This meal is 528 yuan! That's 264 per person, isn't that a bit extravagant?!"

"Relax, it's definitely value for money."

Jiang Han chuckled, not explaining too much.

Once the food arrives, Cai Bo will naturally understand how worth it the 528 yuan was!

Then he took Cai Bo to find a seat.

Seeing Huang Tao in the kitchen slicing roast duck made him even hungrier, watching Huang Tao's slicing movements was making his mouth water.

"See? Isn't Boss Huang's duck-slicing skill amazing?!"

"It really is."

Cai Bo chuckled, thinking: What does that have to do with roast duck?

While waiting for the food, the two busied themselves with their phones.

"Hello, here's your roast duck, steamed spareribs with lotus leaf glutinous rice, nourishing fish soup, and two cold dishes, please enjoy, the stir-fried crabs with rice cakes and processed duck rack will be served shortly."

Xu Hao placed the dishes on their table one by one.

The aroma wafted directly into their nostrils...

"Oh, the food's here so quickly, let's dig in..." Jiang Han couldn't resist starting to eat.

He picked up a steamed pancake, chose a piece of gleaming red duck meat, dabbed a bit of sweet sauce, added cucumbers and shredded scallions, wrapped it into a duck roll, and took a bite.

As he slowly chewed, he savored the tender meat, the crispy duck skin, the refreshing cucumber, and the spicy scallions dancing a beautiful waltz on his tongue.

Then he took a spoonful of nourishing fish soup.

The rich fish soup added layers of flavor instantly.

Looking at Cai Bo opposite, he was just engrossed in eating, his mouth full of food, oily all over his face.

Like a reincarnated hungry ghost!

Jiang Han shook his head speechlessly, gourmet food is not meant to be eaten like this.

Looking down again...

Holy crap!

The whole plate of roast duck was left with less than half...

What the heck!

What are you waiting for?

Dig in!

He quickly bowed his head to eat, fearing this hungry ghost Cai Bo would finish everything.

As for culinary appreciation...

All thrown to the wind.

Eating was all he could see!

When Xu Hao brought the stir-fried crabs with rice cakes and the processed duck rack over.

The two said nothing, just took it and continued devouring.

...

"Ah! That was satisfying, right? Isn't the food here great? Now you see, my order wasn't too much, not extravagant?"

Jiang Han had polished off everything, even the scallions in the fish soup, slightly reclining and jokingly rubbing his belly.

Though the two were colleagues, they shared a pretty good relationship privately, often joking like this with each other.

"It's indeed excellent, the boss's cooking is unparalleled!"

Earlier he thought Jiang Han's words were exaggerated, ordering too much, and the price too extravagant!

But after eating, he realized, it wasn't exaggerated at all, the order wasn't too much, the price not extravagant...

Given this culinary skill, it's hard to find someone like Boss Huang in the entire Zhejiang Province.

"Han, let's come again tomorrow!"

"Sure!"
