Chapter 534: Chapter 423: Is This a Freaking Marathon?

When Ah-Can ran over, he saw President Yang happily munching away, with his cheeks puffed out from the food.

Ah-Can was about to ask the leader where to order food from.

He saw Yang Jianming directly lift the bowl, tilt his neck back, and gulp down the noodle soup in one go.

"It’s delicious. How did Ah-Hao find such a tasty yet strange food truck?"

Ah-Can was a bit puzzled, "President Yang, where do we order food from? Is our gathering today just for noodles?"

Truth be told, although Xu Zhenghao had shared information beforehand, mentioning that they would be eating noodles and pancakes,

Ah-Can thought that while the noodles and pancakes were indeed delicious, they could still buy other food from different stalls.

But now?

On Wenzhou Street, there were only coffee shops and dessert stores, and he had no idea where President Yang’s noodles and pancakes came from.

Yang Jianming pointed to a junction ahead, "Ride your bike ahead to the junction and then turn left. You’ll see a yellow food truck; just go and order. Note down how much you spend; we’ll reimburse it at the office tomorrow."

After saying this, Yang Jianming thought for a moment, stood up, and rubbed his belly, "One bowl of noodles is not enough. Come on, you ride and I’ll run, I’ll go get another bowl."

Before Ah-Can could think further, Yang Jianming had already dashed off.

This level of exercise was nothing for him, so Ah-Can didn’t think too much and pedaled his bike hard to catch up.

After a turn, just as President Yang had said, Ah-Can saw a yellow food truck slowly moving ahead.

"President Yang! Keep running; I’ll go help stop the truck."

Yang Jianming smiled but said nothing, continuing to run in a comfortable manner, while Ah-Can pedaled harder and caught up with the food truck.

"Boss, please stop! I want to order food."

Chen Mo elegantly stood inside the truck holding a cup of lemonade, "Can’t stop."

Ah-Can thought he had misheard, pointing at a roadside parking spot ahead, "There’s a spot there; you can park there, boss."

"I said I can’t stop; my truck has to keep moving forward."

"Why?" Ah-Can turned his head while riding, only then noticing that the boss inside the truck was indeed different — wearing a black suit in this 40-degree heat, impressive!

"Because someone is chasing me, so I can’t stop. If I stop, I’ll be caught." Chen Mo explained briefly and made the consequence sound serious, "What would you like to eat?"

Ah-Can was baffled by what Chen Mo said, so he pedaled slowly and glanced at the menu, "I’ll have one of everything! Since the company is paying."

Then he slowed down further, "Mister, a genuine pancake, please!"

And slowed even more, "Bro, can I have an iced juice, is there orange juice?"

Ordering one of everything possible, Ah-Can was finally satisfied and biked to catch up with Chen Mo, "Oh right, boss, make it two portions of noodles, my colleague will be here soon."

Chen Mo nodded and started making noodles.

The sky had just turned dark, and more people were coming out for an evening stroll and nightlife. Before long, Yang Jianming had also caught up, jogging slowly, and even though he had just eaten a bowl of noodles, watching Chen Mo’s noodle-making felt very elegant.

This was not just noodle making; it was like an art performance!

Similarly, Ah-Can was also somewhat amazed.

Is it necessary to be this dramatic just to cook noodles?

Isn’t it just grabbing some noodles from the box and tossing them in the pot?

They kept running and riding while waiting for the noodles to be ready.

Then, a panting voice came from behind, "President Yang! Ah-Can! Wait for me!"

The two turned to look, and it was Ah Xia, the new graduate girl from the department.

Although others might not know, Yang Jianming remembered Ah Xia very clearly.

When she first joined, Ah Xia was considered the goddess among male colleagues in the department, at 160 cm tall and weighing 90 pounds, she had curves where she needed, and was slender where she didn’t.

But in just one year...

Ah Xia’s figure went haywire, the once curvaceous side profile now looked like a straight line.

There was a time when the head office came for an inspection and even scolded Yang Jianming.

Said it was inhumane for the company to allow a pregnant woman to work overtime!

At that time, Yang Jianming was utterly puzzled, there was only one girl in the department, Ah Xia, where would a pregnant woman come from?

Later, it slowly became clear.

The leader wasn’t talking about a pregnant woman but about Xiaoxia!!!

Her protruding belly was almost no different from being four or five months pregnant!

Of course, even now, Xiaoxia remains the goddess among the male colleagues in the department, after all, when people see each other every day, it’s hard to notice if someone gets fatter or thinner.

Yang Jianming looked back and sighed slightly as he saw Ah Xia running towards him.

The goddess of the past... if only you could lose thirty pounds.

Ah Xia exerted a lot of effort to finally catch up, hands on her knees, bending over, gasping for air, and just as she was about to speak...

"No way... President Yang, Ah-Can? Wait for me?"

She saw that her two colleagues hadn’t waited for her and were still running ahead, with Ah-Can biking?
