Su Mianmian walked out with the empty lunch box, feeling both guilty and worried.

She felt guilty because Uncle said to her, “Although the food you cook is just so-so, I’m still quite happy with this little surprise on account of you getting up early to prepare for me.”

Her worry was also because Uncle said to her, “Since you can cook, you shall be in charge of my lunch. By the way, green pepper is disgusting. I don’t want to see it in my menu again!”

…but she can’t cook!

Will Uncle be angry if she confess now?

The answer is definitely yes.

Therefore, Su Mianmian didn’t confess but just walked out in despair.

After seeing Su Mianmian come out, Mengmeng tugged at her and said, “I’m sorry, Mianmian. Today’s meal was cooked by the boss himself, and it was really awful. We have already made a phone call to complain. The boss said he would get the chef to prepare again and send it over…huh, it’s all been eaten?!”

Su Mianmian froze for a moment and asked, “Did it taste very awful?”

“Yeah, it’s too salty, it can’t be eaten.” Mengmeng wondered, “Strange, why did Boss finish it? It’s really awful. No one here could eat it.”

He probably thought it was cooked by her!

That’s why Uncle finished everything!

Su Mianmian was suddenly filled with guilt. If she had known it, she would have kept the food she cooked today no matter how bad it looked and tasted. It was better than lying to Uncle.

Mengmeng shouted at her back, “Huh, where are you going, Mianmian? Boss has eaten all the food, do you still want to complain?”

Su Mianmian went back to the door of the president’s office. After standing for a while, she knocked on the door a little uneasily.

“Come in.” There was a monitor at the door. Huo Ting already knew it was Su Mianmian when she was at the door.

Su Mianmian walked in, looked at Uncle, and swallowed back the words she wanted to say.

“What’s wrong?” Huo Ting looked up and asked.

She pursed her lips and said, “Uncle, I will be serious in learning cooking from now on.”

Huo Ting thought she was still upset about the lunch, so he said, “It was actually not too awful.” This was the most consoling statement he could come up with.

Su Mianmian lowered her head and couldn’t bring herself to say that it wasn’t cooked by her.

Huo Ting looked at her defeated look and couldn’t help but find it interesting. He thought about it and said, “I look forward to your second little surprise.”

That’s right! There’s still afternoon tea!

Su Mianmian held her fists and looked up at Huo Ting. Her eyes had regained their brightness.

She said, “Uncle, there’s a shop across the road that sells delicious cake! I’ll go buy it for you, wait for me!”

Right after this, she turned and rushed downstairs.

Huo Ting was a little surprised by Su Mianmian’s reaction, and at the same time felt a slight sense of pride. She really deserves his fancy! Little Lamb is always thinking of him.

He stood up, pulled up the curtains behind him, and looked downstairs.

Within a short while, he saw Su Mianmian run quickly across the road, entered a cake shop, and came out with a bag after a while.

At this moment, Su Mianmian was waiting for the red light downstairs. She had never felt that one minute of red light would be so long.

Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three…

A car suddenly went past in front of her, and quickly reversed after going past her. The man inside opened the door, pulled the unsuspecting Su Mianmian in, and closed the door!

All these was done in less than a second.

The green light finally turned red, but Su Mianmian was nowhere to be seen, leaving behind only the cake that fell on the ground.
