Protagonist:

Lu Feng

Bao Hong opened the takeout box containing the steamed buns, and a rich heat of fresh meat, toon, and wrapper wheat fragrance rose out.

That tempting fragrance drifted to Zhang Haitao's nose beside him, making him subconsciously swallow his saliva.

Although the steamed buns had been sitting for a while, the takeout box in Lu Feng's shop had especially good insulation.

Therefore the steamed buns were still piping hot now, not much different from just coming out of the pot.

"Come, General Manager Zhang, you try this steamed bun too."

Bao Hong took a steamed bun out of the box and handed it to Zhang Haitao.

After saying this, he himself pinched one, impatiently brought it to his mouth, and took a bite.

Just as the warm bun skin was bitten open, an incomparably delicious soup surged into his mouth.

Bao Hong hurriedly sucked two breaths in succession, and his eyes instantly lit up.

The delicious soup wrapped the fresh meat and scallion-ginger flavor, the seasoning was just right, the meat filling was chopped fine but not mushy.

Every time he chewed, his teeth could clearly feel the elasticity of the meat granules.

This taste was simply too perfect!

A taste that even Michelin master chefs would bow down to!

Mo Du's steamed buns, Bao Hong's favorite was an old brand twenty-plus kilometers from his home.

He had driven there several times before to eat, and at that time he still thought that shop's steamed buns were probably the best-tasting in Mo Du.

But now, compared with this steamed bun before his eyes, the taste of that shop's was simply inferior by who knows how many grades.

This was truly delicious steamed buns!

Bao Hong swore, this was the most delicious steamed bun he had eaten in his life, without exception!

He finished one in two or three bites, and immediately pinched up the next one, eating in a state of complete self-forgetfulness.

Bao Hong's mind was full of gratitude now.

This trip to Jiangcheng had indeed not been in vain!

The taste of this steamed bun was so good, that restaurant owner's culinary skill was absolutely top-notch!

It seemed he would have to find opportunities to come to Jiangcheng often in the future.

In that treasure shop, there must be other dishes with tastes even more superb than this steamed bun.

Such delicacies, he absolutely could not miss!

On the other side, Zhang Haitao held the steamed bun in his hand, with a few traces of casualness still on his face.

Looking at the steamed bun, he couldn't help but feel suspicious in his heart.

Although this steamed bun smelled quite fragrant.

But after all, it was nothing more than a steamed bun.

This thing was sold everywhere on streets and alleys, how special could it be?

Did Manager Bao really make such a fuss over this little thing?

Zhang Haitao certainly didn't think that relying on these few steamed buns could entertain Manager Bao and his group.

This thing could at most fill the stomach a bit, serving as a pre-meal snack was fine.

To make this cooperation proceed smoothly, they definitely still had to book a high-end restaurant and properly entertain them.

But when Zhang Haitao took the first bite, that contempt in his heart just now was instantly washed away by the deliciousness exploding in his mouth, without a trace.

The taste and texture of this steamed bun... simply invincible!

This was completely not on the same level as those he had eaten before!

Compared with this steamed bun, those he had eaten before couldn't even be called delicacies!

No wonder even a figure like Manager Bao couldn't forget this steamed bun.

So this steamed bun really was extraordinarily delicious!

Zhang Haitao finished a steamed bun in two or three bites, and when swallowing, he couldn't help but lick his lips.

At this moment, he suddenly recalled the scene of scolding the employees in the conference room just now.

Zhang Haitao thought of this at this time, and suddenly felt some guilt in his heart.

No wonder those employees were willing to risk being late for work in the afternoon to eat at that restaurant on Food Street.

If it were him as an employee, having something so delicious.

Not to mention being late, even if asking for leave, he would still have to go taste it.

Zhang Haitao looked at the takeout box in Manager Bao's hand, inside there were only two steamed buns left.

Recalling the deliciousness of the steamed buns just now, an impulse to eat another one couldn't help but rise in his heart.

But just as he was about to reach out, he shrank back again.

It was rare that Manager Bao ate so enthusiastically, he certainly couldn't snatch food from the client.

Anyway, Food Street was not far from the company, if he wanted to eat later, there would always be a chance to go eat.

Bao Hong finally finished the last steamed bun, took out a tissue from his pocket to wipe his mouth, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

"Manager Bao, the taste of this steamed bun is indeed superb!"

Zhang Haitao saw he had finished, and hurriedly went over to say: "But eating these few steamed buns probably won't fill the stomach, how about we go to a high-end restaurant to have a proper meal? I'll arrange it, guaranteed to satisfy you!"

He said while calculating in his heart which restaurant would be more suitable.

Unexpectedly, Bao Hong shook his head after hearing this, smiling as he said to Zhang Haitao, "Thank you for General Manager Zhang's kind intention, but dining is unnecessary."

Speaking, he raised his wrist to check the time on his watch, his tone quite flat as he said, "General Manager Zhang, the project introduction meeting this afternoon need not be held; we plan to book tickets back to Mo Du shortly, thank you for your entertainment."

"What? General Manager Bao, this is……"

The smile on Zhang Haitao's face instantly froze; the whole person felt as if someone had splashed a basin of cold water on him.

Wang Zhiqiang beside him also showed a panicked expression on his face; the project materials in his hand nearly fell to the ground.

No way?

How can this person be like this?

You want to eat xiaolongbao, we also let you eat.

Result: you just finished eating, wiped your mouth, and directly turned your face refusing to acknowledge it?

If this cooperation falls through, hasn't the whole company up and down been busy for nothing these past few months?

Zhang Haitao instantly became anxious, just preparing to speak a couple more sentences, but was interrupted by Bao Hong's following words.

"General Manager Zhang, you misunderstand; actually, regarding the matter of cooperating with your company, we already researched it at our company before I came."

Bao Hong smiled, his tone gentle as he said, "On behalf of our company, I agree to cooperate with you; shortly the assistant will hand the cooperation contract to you for signing; after I return I will arrange a team to coordinate with you."

Hearing this, Zhang Haitao's raised heart instantly settled back down; he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Many thanks, General Manager Bao! Rest assured, we absolutely will not let you down!"

Project Manager Wang Zhiqiang also had a face full of excitement.

Originally thought this project cooperation, no matter what, would require negotiating with the other party for several days.

Didn't expect the other party would agree to cooperate so readily.

"Right, your side should also send out a person in charge to coordinate with our side; just hand it to……"

Bao Hong's gaze fell on Ma Wenliang; he stretched out a hand pointing at him: "Just hand it to this young man; shortly you give your contact method to my assistant; after returning I will arrange our people to contact you."

"What? Me?"

Ma Wenliang abruptly raised his head, eyes staring round.

He felt a huge pie fall from the sky, heavily smashing onto his own head.

Smashing until his head buzzed.
