"Actually, if your company goes bankrupt due to poor managent, you could probably apprentice under a head chef for a few months and successfully learn enough to beco a head chef yourself." Ding Jinshi was indeed affirming Ding Long’s abilities.
Ding Long was amused and exasperated, "Should I thank you for the complint?"
"No need to be polite." Ding Jinshi chuckled.
"I think you should pray that my company doesn’t go under; otherwise, if we break off the engagent in half a year, people will say you, Ding Jinshi, are soone who loves the rich and despises the poor." Ding Long, with a face that seed well-intentioned, said this seriously to Ding Jinshi.
"Oh, I am soone who loves the rich and despises the poor, so I’m not afraid of such talk. But having more wealthy friends is always better than having more impoverished ones, so I still believe your company will thrive." After a pause, Ding Jinshi added, "I know you are going to thank again. Actually, there’s no need; I am not soone who likes friends being so polite with ."
Seeing Ding Long roll his eyes at her, Ding Jinshi left the kitchen feeling very pleased and reminded him to hurry up before she departed.
For two people, Ding Long made three dishes and a soup, two veggie and one at. Set on the table, it surprisingly impressed Ding Jinshi.
Under Ding Long’s gaze, Ding Jinshi picked up her chopsticks and tried all the dishes. Then, with a raised eyebrow towards Ding Long, she said, "Other than the bean sprouts being too salty, everything else is unexpectedly decent. Who would’ve thought Ding the boss is also a kitchen whiz. Looks like I won’t need to eat out with you every day anymore!"
Seeing Ding Jinshi actually enjoy it, Ding Long couldn’t hide his happiness and secretly thought that he should learn more about cooking. At the very least, watching Ding Jinshi happily eat the al he personally made gave him imnse satisfaction.
The news of Ding Jinshi and Ding Long’s engagent was announced just two days later and was done in an extrely high-profile way. By the third day Ding Jinshi reported to work, the date and the venue for the engagent party were already decided, with more than a month to go.
Lan Li returned to the army the day after Ding Jinshi and Ding Long’s engagent party dates were set, learning about the news from Zhou Chenyue. Ding Jinshi remained silent for a long ti without saying anything.
Since the news was released, Lan Li hadn’t co to find him, but at least he was still in the capital then. Now, he hasn’t done anything and went directly back to the army as if the affairs of the capital had nothing to do with him whatsoever.
Ding Jinshi returned to his previous life’s workplace; Ding Long was not surprised at all by this because Ding Jinshi was a talent in his field and was key national developnt. The only difference this ti was that Ding Jinshi took on a considerable position upon joining the unit, not all that surprising because the achievents Ding Jinshi obtained while studying in M Country far surpassed those in his previous life.
On Ding Jinshi’s first day off work, Ding Long didn’t go out, staying ho with Ding Jinshi. Breakfast was eggs and congee that he personally cooked, and Ding Jinshi ate with great relish.
"How are you getting along with your colleagues at work?" Ding Long actually cared about this question quite a bit; in his previous life, due to a drastic change in personality, Ding Jinshi was cold to everyone, eventually resigning to go to the mountains, leaving no friends among colleagues in the company.
