The Tsundere Boss x The Foodie
Chi Xing, formerly an executive's secretary and now a food blogger, finally realized half a month after quitting that her former boss was a total glutton.
Before she left, her boss would sneak her snacks every day. Not even half a month after she quit, he actually followed her to a street stall and stuffed himself, then invited her to be his meal buddy.
Chi Xing: I'll pass, thanks. I'm not into BDSM, and I don't want to spend any more time with my boss now that I've quit.
Xie Jingcheng: I won't freeload. I'll pay.
Seeing the transfer history on her phone, Chi Xing grinned from ear to ear. Her boss was even paying her hush money while her non-compete clause was still in effect.
Getting paid to eat: one of life's great pleasures!
So Chi Xing took her former boss, now her meal buddy, to eat her way through every corner of Haicheng, then every corner of the country, and then every corner of the world.
But why wasn't this boss satisfied with being just a meal buddy anymore?
[Bonus Scene]
A question on Zhihu: What's the weirdest thing that's happened to you at work?
User: Thanks for the invite. My boss kept stealing my snacks, so I quit in a fit of anger.
User: My secretary left, and now my snacks are gone.
Onlookers: Get these two out of here!
[Reading Guide]
1. This is a food-focused story. There is romance, but there are tons of descriptions of food, as well as lots of comments from internet users.
2. The protagonist's tastes are based on the author's. The author doesn't eat spicy food, raw food, or offal, among other things, which will be mentioned in advance in future author's notes.
3. This story won't be abandoned, but it won't update daily. What gets written each day depends on what the author has eaten or feels like eating.
4. The heroine is a food blogger, but she hardly ever cooks. If she does cook one day, it means the author herself has cooked.
5. That's all for now. I'll add more if I think of anything later.
Theme: Wake up and eat
