747: Chapter 747 Banquet for the Loli_1 747: Chapter 747 Banquet for the Loli_1 “Why are you in my car?” Bai Xiaosheng looked at Lin Ke in the car with complete surprise.
He thought that after her classes, this girl had gone to Zhongjing.
Lin Ke giggled, yet before she could answer, Feng who was in the driver’s seat couldn’t help but glance at her, and then at Bai Xiaosheng, “Mr.
Bai, this girl claid to be your relative, reciting your na, phone number, and even your company position without a single mistake, so I let her in.
Is there a problem?”
It wasn’t strange for Lin Ke to know all these details, having the information on everyone in the training class.
Bai Xiaosheng waved his hand at Feng, “No problem, it’s all good.”
Only then did Feng relax, though suspicion still lingered in his gaze.
Where did Mr.
Bai’s relative co from?
He’d never heard of her before…
Bai Xiaosheng got into the car, sat next to Lin Ke, instructed Feng to drive, then turned to look at her, “It’s almost noon, do you want to make sothing tasty for you, to settle the debt for one al?”
“That’s exactly what I ca for!” Lin Ke laughed, snapping her fingers.
“Back to my place,” instructed Bai Xiaosheng to Feng.
When they got near his residence, Bai Xiaosheng got out with Lin Ke, told Feng to go back to the company, and then took Lin Ke to a nearby market.
“Do you have any dietary restrictions?” Bai Xiaosheng asked at the entrance of the market.
“I can’t handle spicy food very well, but other than that, I’m good with anything!” Lin Ke said with a smile.
“Then wait here for a while, I’ll be back in at most ten minutes,” Bai Xiaosheng replied with a smile and turned to enter the market.
Lin Ke was obedient, amusing herself with her phone outside, and soon saw Bai Xiaosheng coming out with a bag of stuff.
What it was, she didn’t know, and she didn’t ask.
She was looking forward to the surprise.
However, on the way back, Lin Ke couldn’t help but say to Bai Xiaosheng, “Are you going to make atballs for lunch?
I’ve heard from Xiaoya that your atballs are exceptional!
So tasty they make people want to cry!”
That sounded so exaggerated.
Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but feel a mixture of amusent and frustration.
Only a true foodie could say sothing like that.
“We’re not having atballs in the middle of the day, I’ll cook a few dishes for you to try,” said Bai Xiaosheng.
Lin Ke nodded.
After a mont of silence, Bai Xiaosheng suddenly looked at her and asked, “Do you think this counts as bribing the examiner?”
“No, no,” Lin Ke reassured him, “If you feel uneasy, when the results are out, I can just deduct so points from your score.”
Bai Xiaosheng’s face darkened.
What was he after?
“If you want to be ‘fair’ like that, then I’m not cooking this al!”
“You wouldn’t dare!” Lin Ke glared, “Hmph, Bai Xiaosheng, don’t think I don’t know that in the first phase, you were first three tis in a row and only slipped in the last round, falling out of the top five.
There must be sothing fishy there!
Perhaps Feng Li helped you too!
I’m letting that go, but if you dare not make sothing delicious, I’ll trip you up!”
Lin Ke was even threatening him now.
Bai Xiaosheng shrugged helplessly, at a loss with her.
Back at his place, Bai Xiaosheng busied himself in the kitchen.
When he went to the living room to fetch sothing, he saw that Lin Ke had already taken off her boots and was nestled comfortably on the couch watching TV.
Her legs, clad in white tights, were crossed, and she was twirling the tips of her twin ponytails with her hands, looking both cute and beguiling.
“This girl, she’s going to be trouble when she grows up,” Bai Xiaosheng muttered to himself, then chuckled, “What am I saying, she’s grown up—she’s already thirty!”
If age was taken into account, she was probably even older than him…
Bai Xiaosheng shook his head and returned to the kitchen.
He busily prepared the dishes one by one and carried them out to place on the coffee table.
Lin Ke couldn’t take her eyes off them, and she even felt like she was about to drool.
“Golden Fried Shrimp Balls, Scallion-Braised Sea Cucumber, Crispy at with Radish, and Cold Mixed Juliennes.”
Two people, four dishes, and a pot of fragrant rice.
As Bai Xiaosheng ca back with the bowls and chopsticks, he saw Lin Ke had already started, picking up a Golden Fried Shrimp Ball and tossing it into her mouth.
Her eyes sparkled as she ate and nodded in praise, “The coating is crispy, the shrimp at is sweet, and you’ve added banana and spices, which is ingenious!”
As she spoke, she snatched the chopsticks from Bai Xiaosheng’s hand, picked up a piece of scallion from the Scallion-Braised Sea Cucumber, and tasted it, “Rich and strongly flavored, absolutely delicious!
To cook the scallion to this level, that’s the ultimate!”
The young girl heaped praise without any reservation as she wholeheartedly enjoyed the al.
Bai Xiaosheng smiled, served himself a bowl of rice, and ate with her.
In the end, most of the dishes ended up in Lin Ke’s stomach.
She put down her bowl and chopsticks, her face showing complete satisfaction.
“The dishes are not exotic, but you indeed have the standard of a top chef!
Xiaoya didn’t lie to !” Lin Ke said with a smile.
Bai Xiaosheng smiled and cleared away the dishes.
“Bai Xiaosheng, are you married?” Lin Ke suddenly asked as he returned.
“Not yet,” Bai Xiaosheng replied casually, then curiously asked, “Why do you ask?”
“How about I marry you then!” Lin Ke asked with big, charming eyes.
Bai Xiaosheng rolled his eyes.
They say to capture a man’s heart, you must first capture his stomach.
It seems this saying applies to won too, especially to foodies.
“Let’s talk about that when you’re older,” Bai Xiaosheng muttered, careful not to speak too loudly for fear of an outburst from Lin Ke.
Finally, Lin Ke took an afternoon nap at Bai Xiaosheng’s place, had a cup of tea, and then leisurely left.
That afternoon, Bai Xiaosheng did not go to the company, but instead stayed at ho to do his “howork.”
Even with Red Lotus’s assistance, which allowed him to master comprehensive information about nineteen enterprises excluding Zhongjing dia in a very short ti, he knew that making strategic business decisions required a lot of effort!
Bai Xiaosheng was very clear about this.
So he focused his mind and put in the sa, if not more, effort to refine and perfect his “howork.”
“Lin Ke’s idea is excellent!
If I really beco the provincial industrial manager, I’ll inevitably have to deal with these enterprises!
Getting accustod to this in advance is all gain with no loss!” Bai Xiaosheng, while laying the groundwork, also found it very interesting.
He spent an afternoon analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of each enterprise, typing every word into a docunt, and even drafted a vision and developnt plan for each company considering their current situations.
“If others reach ten, I aim to reach a hundred.
Only by doing so can I stay one step ahead and outpace them!” Bai Xiaosheng silently recited to himself.
This was a laborious project, and even with Red Lotus’s assistance, it was like climbing a mountain, requiring one to progress step by step.
However, once Bai Xiaosheng genuinely completed this task, dealing with affairs of each enterprise would beco extrely simple later on, and his decisions would be highly practical and applicable!
In the following ti, Bai Xiaosheng prepared wholeheartedly, pouring in several tis more effort than others.
He could feel his ntal reserves gradually becoming richer, a sensation that was imnsely fulfilling.
Bai Xiaosheng also looked forward to the arrival of the first brief on the affairs!
