Gourmet: Twins' Father and Chef of the Kindergarten

Chapter 524 - 481: An Unexpected Surprise (Part 2)

He smiled and responded, "Director Liang, this office is really great. I am very grateful for your consideration and arrangement."

"Chef Huang, no need to be so polite."

Liang Yinqiu noticed Huang Jun’s hesitation and gently explained, "Although you’ll be busy in the kitchen most of the time, this office can be your quiet space for planning menus and researching new recipes. It can also be a place for you to rest and think when needed."

"I hope this provides you with a more comfortable working environment." Liang Yinqiu looked around the office, "Take a look and see if there’s anything else you need. I can have someone get it for you."

Although this office was just tidied up not long ago, it was already well-equipped with a desk, sofa, chairs, a computer, and other office supplies and greenery.

Huang Jun replied with a smile, "Director Liang, it’s already very good here. There’s nothing else needed."

Liang Yinqiu nodded, "Alright, if you need anything in the future, just let me know, or you can tell Manager Liu and have her procure it..."

Huang Jun nodded in agreement, "Okay!"

"Chef Huang, here is the key to the office. Keep it safe!" Liang Yinqiu handed the key to Huang Jun.

"Thank you!"

Huang Jun expressed his gratitude, took the key with a smile, had a few polite exchanges with Liang Yinqiu, then left the office heading towards the kitchen.

As he passed by the playground, he heard the sounds of children in the school building sharing their delicious lunch experiences and expressing their anticipation for snack rewards, and a smile appeared on his lips.

After all, this is the purest and most beautiful kind of praise!

"The children are so looking forward to their snack rewards; I must prepare well! I wonder if Assistant Dong found that old-fashioned popcorn maker. If not, I’ll have to pop it in the pan later."

As he walked, he pondered, hoping not to disappoint the children.

As he was almost at the kitchen...

A familiar voice suddenly interrupted his thoughts from behind: "Chef Huang..."

Huang Jun immediately turned his head at the sound, only to see Dong Yuantao approaching swiftly with a big box, his face beaming with a smile.

"Chef Huang, I found what you were looking for..."

"So fast..."

Huang Jun couldn’t help but be a bit surprised, not expecting Dong Yuantao to be so efficient.

Just during lunch, he casually mentioned wanting to make some crispy rice treats for the children as a snack reward but was troubled by the lack of a traditional popcorn maker.

At that time, Dong Yuantao volunteered to help find one.

Huang Jun didn’t have high hopes, considering such old-fashioned machines are uncommon.

However.

In less than half an hour, Dong Yuantao showed up with the results.

No wonder he’s Liu Shiwei’s reliable assistant. His efficiency is truly impressive!

"For your matters, Chef Huang, I naturally give it my all. Look and see if this is what you wanted."

Dong Yuantao chuckled as he spoke, placing the box in front of Huang Jun.

"No need to look. When you handle things, I’m at ease!"

Huang Jun accepted the box with a smile and thanked him, "Assistant Dong, thank you for your hard work. Once it’s done, I’ll save some for you and President Liu. I’ll leave it at Uncle Li’s gatehouse; you can pick it up when you’re free."

Yay~

Dong Yuantao was delighted inside but outwardly maintained a calm smile, humbly responding, "Huang Jun, you’re too kind, even considering me and President Liu. Since that’s the case, I’ll gratefully await the treat. Thank you, thank you!"

Huang Jun smiled back and said, "It’s the least I can do, Assistant Dong. Your help means a lot to me, and this little token is just a small expression of my gratitude."

"Alright, thanks! Chef Huang, I have some matters to attend to at the company, so I’ll head back first. If you need anything else, don’t hesitate to call me anytime." Dong Yuantao waved as he said goodbye.

After watching Dong Yuantao vanish around the corner, Huang Jun slowly walked into the kitchen, unexpectedly running into Liu Suyu, who was about to return to the office.

He greeted her politely, "Manager Liu, are you heading back?"

"Yes."

Liu Suyu nodded gently, then asked with concern, "Chef Huang, I didn’t see you just now. Where did you go?"

"Oh, I just went to find Director Liang to sign and confirm the new contract." Huang Jun replied honestly.

Hearing this, a look of surprise blossomed on Liu Suyu’s usually calm face, "So you’ve accepted Director Liang’s proposal?"

Huang Jun smiled and nodded to confirm, "Yes, I’ve agreed. The new contract has been signed."

"That’s great news!"

Liu Suyu was genuinely happy for him and then focused on the large box Huang Jun was holding, curiously asking, "Chef Huang, what’s in this box of yours?"

Huang Jun feigned mystery, smiling with a wink, "Haha, take a guess?"

Liu Suyu: "..."

She couldn’t tell...

Chef Huang, you have such a childish side...

She shook her head, "I can’t guess. Just tell me!"

Huang Jun glanced up at Liu Suyu and playfully teased, "I’m not telling, you’ll find out later."

Hmph~

Fine, don’t tell! Who cares anyway...

Liu Suyu crossed her arms, tilted her head up, and put on an unconcerned demeanor.

But the next second...

Seeing Huang Jun, who wasn’t considerate, walked straight inside without humoring her, left her feeling somewhat uncomfortable, and her curiosity grew stronger. She couldn’t help but follow along.

She wanted to see what kind of treasure Huang Jun was hiding in the box to make it so mysterious, enough not to tell her, the purchasing manager at Dorami Kindergarten...
