No wonder they borrowed her phone today. They were secretly scheming!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the manager of the tech department, if I can’t even handle a computer, what kind of manager am I?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, I reacted quickly, using the excuse of cleaning the computer case to cover it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, wouldn’t this silly guy have dressed up for nothing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even for the company’s anniversary banquet, I didn’t dress this formally. He really put in some effort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Qiang handed over a bouquet of flowers, and Qi Panpan received it with both hands. She pretended to be casual, but after accepting them, she couldn’t help but give a hug. It was her first time receiving roses in her life, and it was very exciting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Welcome, brother-in-law, to inspect our little den.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Qiang loosened his tie and noticed they were living in a four-room, one-hall apartment. It was claimed to be four rooms, but actually, it was a two-room one-hall apartment partitioned into four rooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the living room, there was a dining table. He put his bag on it and asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shall I set things up for you? Where’s the restroom?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A quirky roommate pointed to a door with a sign of a cartoon girl showing her shiny butt and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The restroom’s that way. You can wash your hands in there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Panpan immediately stopped him and pointed to the kitchen:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Never mind, just go wash in the kitchen. The restroom isn’t suited for you to enter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside were everyone’s unwashed underwear and stockings and stuff. Letting a guy in to wash his hands—what was Lanlan thinking? Was she kicked by a donkey?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Qiang went to the restroom to wash his hands, then came to the dining table and started unpacking the dishes one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he took them out, he couldn’t help but marvel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, he brought plenty of food and drinks, even several portions of staple rice; otherwise, this meal couldn’t be properly eaten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wow, are these all dishes from Lin Ji’s?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, this is Lin Ji’s sweet and sour pork, a must-order at every table. The flavor is superb, though it’s been steaming in the box for a while, the taste should still be good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Qiang introduced each dish. After taking them all out, he brought out two cups of yam juice, two cups of pumpkin soup, and two cups of soy milk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this the hot-selling whitening soy milk?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Panpan sis, can I have a sip? I work near Sanlitun, far from Haidian. I’ve been drooling over it but still don’t know if it’s salty or light...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Me too, Panpan sis, I work in East City and can’t get Haidian’s soy milk.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really envy Panpan sis for having such a great boyfriend who delivers all the food. Someone like me, living alone, will never enjoy such blessings this lifetime.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The envious looks from her girlfriends made Qi Panpan proud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She picked up a cup of soy milk and a cup of yam juice, pointed to the remaining hot drinks, and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The rest are all yours. You figure it out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, each girlfriend took a hot drink first, then headed to the kitchen, planning to use a measuring cup to split the soy milk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ji’s soy milk is 450 ml per cup, split into three parts, each person will have exactly 150 ml.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theoretically, this division is fair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if someone takes a sip while dividing, the allotted soy milk decreases.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girlfriends noisily argued in the kitchen, while Qi Panpan sat down and pointed to the seat beside her and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sit down. Standing so straight, are you planning to look down on me from a height?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Qiang quickly sat down, took out the disposable plates that the store included, and set them at everyone’s dining spots, also distributing disposable utensils properly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Panpan put down her hot drink:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You haven’t eaten either, right? Hurry and eat. Don’t mind them; once they go crazy, it never ends.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Qiang nodded, used chopsticks to pick up a piece of crispy chicken and put it in Qi Panpan’s bowl:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the new crispy chicken on today’s menu. Try it. If it’s good, I’ll take you to the store next time and have Mr. Lin personally cook.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, do you really have that much pull?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Lin promised me before I came. He said whenever I bring my strong wife to the store for a meal, I’m free to order whatever I like.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Strong wife?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Panpan blushed:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who’s your strong wife? I’m your ex-girlfriend... but treating your ex to a meal isn’t inappropriate, huh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was an immediate sigh of disappointment from the kitchen’s direction:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsk, been waiting all this time and you two didn’t even kiss; instead, with this ex-boyfriend, ex-girlfriend nonsense, so pretentious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly, wasted this whole time waiting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you two going to kiss or not? If not, we’ll just eat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, the three buddies, using Ms. Cheng’s airy tone, asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Panpan, can you or can’t you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Panpan turned around and glared at them:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Either come eat, or go back to your room.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They immediately stopped being mischievous, sat down with their drinks, and started enjoying the feast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While eating, they praised the delicious taste of the food from Lin Ji’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, Li Qiang was quite nervous, even breaking out in a sweat, but as he ate, he became more familiar and eased up, feeling more at ease with Qi Panpan too, even sneaking a little hand-hold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the meal was finished, not even a scallion was left in the meal box.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Including Qi Panpan, they finally experienced the joy of dining at Lin Ji’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such delicious dishes, such tasty rice, and delightful hot drinks left everyone wanting more, even if they were full, yearning for just a little more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Li Qiang tidied up the meal boxes, Qi Panpan rubbed her small belly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you eat like this all the time at Lin Ji’s?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1016,"2026-06-06T10:24:52.856Z",1,"novelbin.me","f8df7e0075a934fefa98c6742193d355dd81cc2442bf246127fcee690d58e478","i-m-the-culinary-god-chapter-864","i-m-the-culinary-god-chapter-862",1043,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-the-culinary-god-cover.jpg"]
