Chapter 53: 53
Shun began to loosen the blue ribbon on the box, it was also wrapped with a red-clothed . And after unknotting the second wrapping, four big boxes were inside and there's also an envelope .
He opens the boxes and found it was also wrapped with a foil wrapper to keep its freshness . The food is still warm . He unrolls the wraps and the mouth-watering smell of the food hunger him .
Giant prawn cooked in coconut milk and the other boxes is fried squid ring onions . There is also a fried fish with a sauce in a different container wrapped in plastic cellophane and crabs .
But still 10 o'clock in the morning, too early for lunch but his mouth is now tempted to taste them . He picks up some squid rings and put it on his mouth . Wow .
He then remembered the envelope . He opens it and the handwriting is own by Cassie . He quickly read the letter inside .
"Brother Shun,
How are you today?
I heard yesterday from Mr . Jing that Mr . Thomas will be sail going back to Mainland City to pick up the six air compressor for the school's covered court .
Perfect timing Uncle Jong bought some prawns and squids . They are freshly caught! So I tried the recipe I saw on the internet .
I am not sure if it will taste like the one on the internet . Then what do you think, brother Shun? The first try I made wasn't turn out that good even though Joanna and auntie Ling said it is good .
That's why I try it again and they said its better than the first one I made . Hopefully, it was truly turn out good . I am sure you are familiar with these recipes and have eaten them already . I also tried the sweet and sour fish fillet . I have no confidence with the sauce I made . Unless I have those ingredients listed on the internet .
I saw more recipes but am not familiar to most ingredients that written in English . I searched Google for the pictures but it can't be found in the market here nor the seasonings that needed .
I'll try to ask Mr . Ian if could find something in the Mainland City . He comes to the city every month to buy the ingredients for the resort . "
Reading someone's name, Shun's face is now frowning . He remembers who is that guy . The resort manager of the Seagull Resort and the brother of that kid .
He almost forgets about them already, now he remembers again . Shun continue reading Cassie's letter while eating the squid rings . He did not notice that he was almost eaten half of it . When he realized, he licks his finger when suddenly his secretary entered his office without knocking this time .
"What is it?" he asked in a serious tone .
His secretary realizes her mistake, she right away bowed and asked forgiveness for not knocking . Fear began registering on her face .
"What do you want?"
"President, the chefs' asking if what lunch do you like today . " The secretary glances at the lunch boxes in the table . On her mind, who's the wife sent food to her boss? That person has a gut to get close to the president .
"Tell them no need . You can leave now . "
The secretary is hesitant to leave but then she bowed and left the office . She called the kitchen and said, someone sent food for the president and he's eating it . The kitchen was in disbelief .
***
Shun close the boxes and store them inside his fridge . He glances at his wristwatch and it is just 10:30 o'clock .
He sits back in front of his table then pick up his phone . "Daichi, give me the phone number of Thomas . "
