Chapter 325 - 143: The Socialites’ Infighting, Someone Is About to Be Disgraced

Chapter 325: Chapter 143: The Socialites’ Infighting, Someone Is About to Be Disgraced

Then she would head back to the kitchen and casually announce the result.

Just thinking about that scene was enough to make Ling Shuyu’s soul tremble with satisfaction!

But now...

"Damn, Boss! You can even calculate that? Did you learn some kind of mental arithmetic trick as a kid?"

"I’m impressed, I’m really impressed. Boss Su, it’s like your brain is hacked. How did you even calculate that? You didn’t even need to use a pen and paper?"

"Two to the thirteenth power, calculated instantly? Awesome!"

"See, I told you it was a good idea for Xiaobin to do his homework at the company. He should come more often in the future, and we should get the boss to tutor him specifically!"

"Awesome, awesome, awesome! No wonder the boss is always so fast when he looks at the account books. So it’s because he has such formidable arithmetic skills. You should be a math professor or something!"

Hearing her colleagues’ compliments toward Su Chen, Ling Shuyu’s vision went dark, and she nearly stumbled and fell.

’Damn it... Why did the boss get to show off again?’

’How could my carefully designed moment to show off be hijacked halfway through?’

Stumbling back to her office, Ling Shuyu didn’t feel happy at all.

As for Su Chen.

That mental calculation ability was indeed a bit ridiculous, but he had the practice room!

’Just slip in, do a simple calculation, and slip back out. It’s a piece of cake, isn’t it?’

"All right, all right." Su Chen put on an impatient expression for his employees. "President Ling is right. When you have free time, don’t just stand around chatting. You should study more."

He washed his hands, gathered all the pastries in the kitchen, and told Aunt Fang to deliver them to Ling Shuyu’s office.

Su Chen went up to the second floor and, near the doorway, saw Bai Xiaobo staring blankly into space.

"Still upset about what happened earlier?"

Xiaobai shook his head. "No."

"Then what is it?"

Bai Xiaobo took out his phone. "The client said if it’s convenient, she’d like to have a voice call with you."

Tossing the phone down, Bai Xiaobo left the second floor, completely disheartened.

Watching that lonely figure depart.

Su Chen shook his head.

’Ah, Xiaobai... I’ve wronged you. If I’d known, I never would have made you wear those floral shorts. Sigh!’

’At worst, I just won’t deduct your bonus this month. Yes!’

He glanced at the chat history on the phone, but there wasn’t any useful information, so Su Chen decisively initiated a voice call.

The call was answered quickly.

A cutesy, high-pitched voice came from the phone’s earpiece, but it wasn’t overly affected or fake at all; it was actually very pleasant to listen to.

"Boss Su!" Zhang Jiayi sounded as if she were grasping at straws the moment she answered. "Boss Su, you have to help me! This order of ours, can we dine tomorrow? I really can’t wait any longer, I’m desperate!"

Su Chen waited for her to finish before slowly speaking, "Are you in that much of a hurry?"

He wasn’t entirely unsympathetic, as he had already guessed her identity.

For an ordinary person, there was no reason to be anxious about a single meal; it was just a matter of eating it today or tomorrow.

But she was a socialite!

When people like her had a meal, it was about more than just the food.

"Yes, I’m really in a hurry! I can pay extra!"

Su Chen quickly refused. "There’s no need to pay extra. If it’s tomorrow, the earliest would be 5 p.m. Lunch won’t be possible. Would that work for you?"

Su Chen’s original plan had been for the day after tomorrow at noon.

Now all five types of pastries were ready. The only thing missing were the props from Ling Shuyu’s side, but rushing the factory shouldn’t be a big problem.

The remaining task was that Su Chen wanted to decorate a certain area on the nineteenth floor into a more ancient-style space. If they moved the meal up by a day, the schedule would be a bit tight, but it wasn’t impossible.

After all, Meiweilai specialized in Delicious custom orders; everything had to start with the customer’s needs.

As long as they could meet the customer’s needs, they had to accommodate the customer’s schedule, not their own.

Hearing Su Chen actually agree, Zhang Jiayi’s voice became a little shrill. "Really? Then I’ll go tell my friends! Tomorrow at 5 p.m., at Meiweilai Company?"

Su Chen grunted in affirmation. "Tomorrow at 5 p.m., on the nineteenth floor of Meiweilai Company."

"That’s wonderful! Mwah!~ Boss Su, I knew you were the most helpful person to call."

This sort of feminine charm was useless on Su Chen. "By the way, I’d like to suggest you bring some professional photography equipment when you come. Didn’t you say you wanted it to look good? If you’re going to take pictures, it’s best to be a little more professional."

"Got it! I understand!"

With the pleasant conversation temporarily over, Zhang Jiayi happily rolled around on her bed several times.

Then, she sent a message to Duoduo.

"Don’t worry, Duoduo~ I just asked Boss Su, and we can go to his company to taste the delicacies tomorrow at 5 p.m.~ The reason he hasn’t been out with his food stall these past few days must be because he’s been busy cooking for us! So just get your stomach ready and prepare to enjoy yourself~"

Not even a few seconds after Zhang Jiayi sent her message.

Sweet popped up in the [Northern Sisters Group].

[Duoduo: @Sweet, sorry, a few of us sisters from Jingzhou won’t be able to make the event. It’s mainly because there’s a very important banquet tomorrow afternoon. Mmm... let’s get together some other time if we have the chance.]

’Damn it!’

Zhang Jiayi immediately opened her chat with Duoduo, wanting to say something, but after tapping at the screen for a long time, she ended up deleting everything she had typed.

Because she saw someone else had spoken in the group chat.

[Sweet: Oh, alright then. I remember Jiayi does livestreams, right? If there’s an interactive segment, we can do a joint broadcast~ We can help her get some more followers while we’re at it.]
