Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Just Take a Look
Zhao Gushen nodded, waited for everyone to leave, and then he and Ye Fei walked in.
After the elevator door closed.
The employees who just exited the elevator couldn’t help but start gossiping.
"I think that’s the president’s girlfriend, right?"
"Maybe she’s even the mother of the president’s child. Don’t forget that kid who visited earlier, he looks so much like the president!"
"Is the president secretly married?"
"I’m more curious how that girl can put up with the president’s bad temper?"
"Even the president can find a girlfriend? Don’t joke! If even that dog-like president can find someone, why am I still single!"

Ye Fei had no idea about the employees’ speculations as she followed Zhao Gushen to his office.
Just as Ye Fei was about to ask, there was a knock on the office door.
"Come in." As Zhao Gushen spoke, Xiao Ruofeng walked in.
"President, Ye Fei." Xiao Ruofeng greeted them with a smile and placed a lunch box on the table. "This is just delivered from ’Its Taste’."
Zhao Gushen then said to Ye Fei, "You probably came without having eaten, so I had lunch delivered."
Ye Feixin thought, no wonder the lunch box looks so exquisite, it’s not the usual takeaway.
It turns out it was from that Three-star Michelin Restaurant ’Its Taste’ under Changping Group.
Ye Fei had never eaten there and honestly was quite curious about it.
A Three-star Michelin Restaurant typically requires reservations far in advance and isn’t cheap.
Ye Fei was somewhat reluctant to splurge on it.
However, since Zhao Gushen can request such a fine lunch, why did he ask her to deliver lunch?
In terms of ingredients or culinary skills, she was surely less than the chefs of the Three-star Michelin Restaurant.
Wasn’t Zhao Gushen going out of his way?
Previously, she never thought about this issue, but now the reality was right in front of her.
Ye Fei felt a bit anxious.
Would Zhao Gushen, who was used to such exquisite cuisines, find hers too simple?
Making her feel a bit like showing off in front of an expert.
"I came to deliver food to you, yet you went ahead and ordered for me." Ye Fei felt embarrassed.
"These restaurant dishes are indeed exquisite and delicious, but to me, they lack a warmth in flavor." Zhao Gushen explained why he chose Ye Fei’s cooking over a delivery from his own restaurant.
Ye Fei thought about it and agreed.
Zhao Gushen was used to eating these exquisite dishes regularly.
No matter how delicious something is, you get tired of it after a while.
Xiao Ruofeng then said, "President, Ye Fei, I won’t disturb you any longer."
He was about to leave but was stopped by Zhao Gushen: "Wait a minute."
Xiao Ruofeng looked at Zhao Gushen in confusion.
Zhao Gushen sat down unhurriedly and then said to Ye Fei, "Take a seat."
It meant he intended for Ye Fei to stay and eat here.
So Ye Fei sat down, and only then did Zhao Gushen say to Xiao Ruofeng, "Nothing else, just wanted you to see the lunch Ye Fei prepared."
Zhao Gushen opened the lunch box and was stunned at first sight.
Ye Fei had arranged each component in separate layers.
Golden fried rice, crisp green lettuce, red shrimp, red-and-white poached salmon and egg, and a creamy white meringue edged with a slight golden brown.
Just from looking, it was clear Ye Fei put a lot of thought into this meal, which must have taken her quite some effort.
"It’s beautiful," Xiao Ruofeng said, his mouth watering.
"Looks good, doesn’t it?" Zhao Gushen asked.
Xiao Ruofeng nodded eagerly.
"You can look but don’t touch. Go on." Zhao Gushen said mercilessly.
