Chapter 291: Chapter 188 Assistant Chen_2

Spending so much effort, going around in such a big circle just to ask, Qin Huai could only say that these assistants really are meticulous and cautious in their work.

Qin Huai was on the high-speed rail messaging Huang Jia, telling him he’ll soon arrive in Gusu, will definitely be at work on time tomorrow, and will head to Huang Ji after dropping off his luggage.

Huang Jia told Qin Huai not to rush, that resting at home and coming to Huang Ji tomorrow is fine too.

minutes later, Qin Huai opened the door to his rented apartment, seeing the familiar smart furniture, dust-free living room, washed fruits on the coffee table, and neatly arranged snacks, he actually felt a sense of coming home.

The only regret was that the fridge had no cheese sticks.

Qin Huai decisively ordered some takeout.

While waiting for the takeout, Qin Huai sat on the sofa browsing through his social media moments.

The first post he saw was from Gong Liang’s, not sure which restaurant in Beiping attracted Gong Liang, he was enjoying himself in Beiping. Every day leading his wife and kids to eat, drink, play, check-in, take photos, and post them, still in Beiping and not back yet, seeing this pace he’ll probably be there for another week.

For this week, Qin Huai’s next door was destined to be empty.

Qin Huai silently gave it a like.

The second post was Assistant Chen’s, a very standard work-related post, forwarding a product promotion link.

Qin Huai glanced at it, Good Taste Soy Sauce, such a simple name, never heard of it.

Gave it a like as well.

The third post was Ouyang’s, Ouyang rarely posted on social media, usually the kind like Assistant Chen, forwarding links about things like community lonely seniors, building a civilized and hygienic city, etc.

This time the post was different, a bit out of context.

［This time, I will take back everything I lost.］

Qin Huai was a bit puzzled, but still gave it a like.

Scrolling down further, there wasn’t much interesting, college classmates complaining about how hard their job is, iced americanos being more bitter than life.

Like.

Neighbors in Sanmalu District liking posts to get free toilet paper.

Like.

Granny Qin took a picture of the free-range chickens in her yard.

Like.

Qin Xiuli posted the dismal monthly exam results of her unlucky son which were unbearable to look at.

Like... well, better not.

Qin Huai was going through social media likes like processing memorials to the throne, when he reached Dong Shi’s post about checking out after work from last night, the cheese stick takeout arrived.

Qin Huai ate two first, put the rest in the fridge, tidied up, and went to Huang Ji to take a look.

See what to eat tonight.

Just as he stepped out, he ran into a regular at Huang Ji in the community.

"Master Qin is back from Shan City!" The regular greeted Qin Huai enthusiastically, "How’s Shan City, was it fun?"

From the tone, one would think Qin Huai went to Shan City for a vacation.

"Quite good, coming back after a vacation, regular work resumes tomorrow. From tomorrow I’ll only make Three Meat Buns, not Five Fillings Buns, if you like, make sure to come buy some for lunch."

"Absolutely, as long as it’s made by Master Qin, we like them all, Five Fillings or Three are all the same."

By the time Qin Huai reached the entrance of Huang Ji, 20 minutes had passed.

There’s no helping it, the neighbors were too enthusiastic.

Just as Qin Huai was about to step inside, someone called out to him.

"Master Qin, what a coincidence, just parted ways and here we meet again. I was coming to Huang Ji to find you, didn’t expect to meet at the door."

Qin Huai turned around and noticed it was Assistant Chen.

Qin Huai was a bit surprised: "Looking for me?"

Assistant Chen’s smile remained unchanged: "Yes, our boss sent me to Gusu to find you, just after you boarded the high-speed rail gave me the message. I myself found it quite a coincidence, and fearing I’d mistaken someone with a similar face, I came to Huang Ji to confirm, didn’t expect to bump into you at the door."

Qin Huai gestured for Assistant Chen to go inside, not to talk while standing at Huang Ji’s entrance. After going inside, Qin Huai told the service staff at the door, then led Assistant Chen to a window-side corner to sit down.

"You are Qin Huai, the famous Qin Huai of ’Night Mooring by the Qin Huai’s Tavern’," Assistant Chen first confirmed.

Qin Huai nodded.

"You ran a community restaurant in Shan City called Yunzhong Restaurant."

Qin Huai continued to nod.

"Then that’s correct." Assistant Chen smiled and said, "Do you remember I mentioned on the plane that our boss had a son last year? During his son’s first birthday last year, due to the madam’s condition, it wasn’t celebrated largely. Our boss plans to host a large event to invite friends and family for his birthday next year."

"The birthday is on March 19th next year, our boss heard about your skills from a friend, and would like to invite you to A City to be in charge of the snacks for the birthday banquet."

Qin Huai was stunned.

His first reaction was to search his mind for who Assistant Chen’s boss’s friend could be.

Xu Tuqiang?

Grandma Ding?

Grandpa Qian?

Wang Genqiang?

Or Gong Liang?

No, who is Assistant Chen’s boss?

"Sorry, this really is a bit sudden, may I ask, who is your boss...?"

"Our boss’s surname is Han, named Han Guishan. You can search online, whether on the company’s official website or the company registration information, you’ll find him. Our company is called Good Taste, primarily selling soy sauce."

Qin Huai was still somewhat puzzled, such an unfamiliar name: "Then your boss’s friend..."

"Our boss’s friend is a foodie, very good at tasting, you probably haven’t met yet. Today, our boss’s friend went to Shan City hoping to taste your skills, but isn’t it unlucky you came to Gusu today."

"Our boss got the news from his friend that you came to Gusu today, and to Huang Ji for exchange and learning. So he instructed me to contact you, to ask if you are interested in taking this job."
