Chapter 689 - Yu Chu’s Form. (2/2)
Just as Yu Chu was trying to decide on where to eat today, someone knocked on his door.
Dong. Dong. Dong. The door was knocked in a very orderly manner.
“Come in,” Yu Chu said.
Creak. The door opened. A young woman wearing a thick woolen suit and had her hair tied up neatly in a bun walked in.
“Manager Yu, this is the information about that company. I also have the document with me,” the woman spoke clearly in a concise manner.
“Um.” Yu Chu nodded after a glance at the document on the table.
“This are the oats you left behind last time. The water has been boiled as well. You can start eating them at any time,” the young woman solemnly said after placing down a jar.
“Leave it there. Call for a driver for me,” Yu Chu suddenly said.
“Ok. Your meeting will start 40 minutes later. You will have another meeting with that company 30 minutes after the first meeting. Do you need to change your schedule?” the young woman nodded and started telling Yu Chu his schedule.
“Start the meeting at two and postpone the rest. I need to take a trip somewhere,” Yu Chu directly said.
“It’s lunch time. You should leave after having lunch,” the young woman said after some hesitation.
It was clear that this woman thought that Yu Chu was going out for work as well. After all, each time Yu Chu came to this subsidiary company, he never went out for meals. He would only eat some oats to satisfy his hunger. But now, he wasn’t even eating oats anymore. This was somewhat excessive.
“I’m having lunch outside,” Yu Chu stood up and did not bother giving other explanation.
“Ok. Do you need me to go with you?” The young woman was the secretary assigned to Yu Chu when he was at this subsidiary company. Therefore, she would need to follow him around for work-related purposes.
That’s right. She thought that Yu Chu was having lunch with a client. That was why she offered to join.
Yu Chu frowned slightly before he directly said, “There’s no need. I’m only going to have a meal.”
“Ok.” The young woman caught on to what Yu Chu was trying to say. Therefore, she acknowledged his request and left to call him a driver.
Inwardly, she became curious and couldn’t help but mutter, “Manager Yu is going out on a meal by himself? Is the company getting into the food and beverage industry as well?”
That’s right. This was the impression Yu Chu had left on others. In the eyes of others, he was a workaholic that would skip meals for the sake of work. Now that he had postponed his meetings for the sake of a meal, she could only assume that this meal was for the sake of work as well.
As for Yu Chu, he wasn’t bothered about this. After getting on the car, he gave an address and started going through his document silently.
Yu Chu’s first stop was that unique restaurant as he had suddenly recalled Yuan Zhou’s Steamed Tofu with Minced Pork. He planned to try the Yonghe Tofu at this restaurant.
It was lunch time. Therefore, the restaurant was very crowded. When walking in, Yu Chu couldn’t even hear his own footsteps. He looked for an empty seat before sitting down. Then, he ordered, “Boss, one set of Yonghe Tofu and a bowl of white rice, please.”
“Please be seated. The food will arrive shortly,” a waiter answered.
Yonghe Tofu was a dish that could be cooked quickly. As long as the ingredients were prepared in advance, cooking it wouldn’t take long. Therefore, it did not take long for what Yu Chu ordered to arrive.
“Your Yonghe Tofu and white rice. Enjoy your meal,” the waiter served the food and left.
“Well, they look normal.” Yu Chu started picking at the plate that was not white enough in his opinion. Casually, he started arranging his food on the table.
Ding. He used his spoon and scooped a spoonful of tofu before sending it into his mouth.
“Um.” He frowned as he kept the tofu in his mouth for a bit before swallowing it down.
“What tofu is this? Not only is it not tender and smooth, the peas within are also frozen peas as well. I might as well eat some oats instead,” Yu Chu criticized.
In the end, he only took a mouthful of the tofu and left the rice untouched. Just like that, he got on the car and left.
Ever since he tried Yuan Zhou’s Tangyuan, a brand new world had opened for Yu Chu.
Of course, Yu Chu did not forget to leave his evaluation on the form he had prepared.
