Bringing a baby to a street stall: The anorexic female CEO is brought to tears by her cravings at th

Chapter 145 The Pretty Aunt is a Well-behaved Adult

At 5:30 pm, by the flower bed outside Yintai Plaza.

As the surrounding office buildings closed for the day, the crowds in the plaza became noticeably denser.

The queue in front of Lin Chen's stall gradually lengthened, maintaining a size of about twenty people.

At the stall, Lin Chen remained calm and focused on stir-frying the food.

Without uttering any unnecessary words, he quickly cooked each serving of fried rice with a swift motion of his iron ladle.

Wang Hai worked seamlessly at the counter, bagging takeout boxes and handing them to diners while directing the queue forward.

Just then, a figure dressed in a dark business suit walked briskly from the direction of the high-end office building in Yintai Plaza.

She held a black briefcase in her hand and wore high heels, her posture was capable and efficient.

It was none other than Su Qingxue's personal assistant, Secretary Chen.

Secretary Chen walked to the stall, but instead of trying to greet the front or cut in line, he went to the very end of the queue and joined the crowd.

A dozen minutes later, it was time to join the queue.

"Next, how many servings would you like?"

Wang Hai had just handed over a plate of fried rice when he looked up and saw the person standing in front of him. He was stunned for a moment, then immediately put on a warm smile.

"Oh dear, Secretary Chen! Why are you the only one coming down to queue up today?"

As Wang Hai wrote down the order, he glanced behind her. "Didn't President Su come down for a look around with you today?"

"Secretary Chen said."

"President Su really can't get away today."

Secretary Chen explained, "The group added a high-level video conference this afternoon, and it's still going on."

Ms. Su didn't eat much at noon, and her stomach was empty, so she specifically asked me to come down and pack some fried rice for her to take upstairs.

After listening, Wang Hai nodded.

"Being a big boss is really tough; there's not even time to eat on time."

Please wait a moment, it will be ready soon.

Secretary Chen nodded, took out his phone and scanned the payment code posted on the table: "One copy, payment sent."

"Okay."

Lin Chen stood in front of the stove, listening to the conversation between the two, his expression remaining largely unchanged.

With a flick of his wrist, he steadily stirred the iron spoon in the pan, scooping the perfectly cooked fried rice into a takeout box.

Tangtang, who was sitting on a small stool next to him, saw that it was Secretary Chen and immediately put down the small plastic spoon she was fiddling with and stood up.

"Hello, Aunt Chen!"

Tangtang greeted everyone in a clear and crisp voice.

Upon hearing Tangtang's voice, Secretary Chen responded.

"Hello, Tangtang."

Secretary Chen bent down slightly, looked at the cute girl with a little pigtail in front of her, and said with a smile, "Auntie came down in a hurry today and didn't bring you any snacks."

"Auntie will bring you more delicious food during the food festival this Friday, okay?"

"good!"

Tangtang nodded obediently, then took a clean disposable plastic spoon from the small basket and handed it to Secretary Chen with both hands.

"Aunt Chen, here! Please help the pretty auntie hold the spoon."

Tangtang earnestly gave her instructions.

"Thank you, Tangtang."

Secretary Chen reached out and took the spoon. Looking at Tangtang's sensible little face, he couldn't help but gently pat her head.

"By the way, Tangtang, the pretty auntie really liked the little red flower sticker you gave her yesterday."

Secretary Chen recalled what she saw in the office today and couldn't help but share with a smile, "Even in such a serious setting as the high-level meeting today, I saw President Su deliberately turn his phone over and look at the little red flower on the phone case several times."

Hearing that the pretty auntie liked her reward so much, Tangtang's eyes curved into little crescents with joy.

"Hehe, because the pretty auntie is a well-behaved adult!"

Tangtang proudly puffed out her little chest.

While the two of them were chatting, Lin Chen had already pushed the fried rice he had prepared onto the table.

"Secretary Chen, President Su's fried rice is ready. Hold on tight."

Wang Hai quickly packed the takeout box into a plastic bag and handed it over, saying, "Take this upstairs while it's still hot so that President Su can have something to eat. It'll hurt his stomach if the food gets cold."

"Okay, thank you, Boss Lin, thank you, Wang Hai."

Secretary Chen took the packing bag and waved to Tangtang, "Tangtang, Auntie's going upstairs now. See you on Friday."

Goodbye, Aunt Chen!

Secretary Chen didn't linger. Carrying the fried rice, she turned around and walked towards the office building in her high heels.

After seeing Secretary Chen off, business at the stall continued smoothly.

"Boss, three servings of fried rice, please."

The customers behind them came forward to order.

"Okay, just a moment."

Wang Hai responded.

As dusk settled in early summer, the sky gradually darkened.

The streetlights in the square came on, illuminating this small, lively space.

Time passed by, second by second.

7:15 PM.

While packing, Wang Hai turned around and lifted the lid of the insulated container next to him for a peek.

He mentally calculated the remaining amount of rice, then walked directly to the end of the line and placed a small wooden sign that read "Sold Out" behind a young boy wearing headphones.

This way, later customers will automatically leave when they see the sign, instead of queuing for a long time only to end up empty-handed.

7:30.

Lin Chen scooped out the last portion of fried rice from the pot and turned off the gas cylinder valve.

"Dude, this is the last one for today, take it!"

Wang Hai handed the takeout bag to the boy wearing headphones.

"Thanks, boss. I'm really lucky today; I just happened to be online."

The boy smiled, took the lunchbox, and turned to leave.

The stall, which had been bustling for more than two hours, fell completely silent as the last customer left.

All the ingredients prepared today were used up completely, with not a single spoonful wasted and no customer having to wait in line unnecessarily.

"Brother Chen, the customer flow forecast for today was absolutely perfect, it's completely packed."

Wang Hai said with a smile as he stretched his aching shoulders.

"Okay, let's pack up and leave."

Lin Chen spoke up.

The two didn't waste any words, had a clear division of labor, and worked quickly.

In less than ten minutes, the two quickly gathered up the pots, pans, folding tables and chairs on the stall and carefully loaded them into the bread cart and tricycle.

The open space next to the flower bed has been restored to its former neatness.

"Daddy, my little chair is all set up!"

Tangtang stood obediently beside the car, holding the small basket containing spoons.

"Okay, get in the car."

Lin Chen opened the passenger door of the van, put Tangtang into the car seat, and carefully fastened her seatbelt.

"Drive carefully on the road."

After closing the car door, Lin Chen turned to Wang Hai in the driver's seat and gave him a word of advice.

"Don't worry, Brother Chen."

Wang Hai smiled and made a hand gesture.

Lin Chen turned around and got on the electric tricycle.

The two cars, one after the other, drove away from Yintai Plaza and headed towards the urban village.
