Chapter 277 The Shabby Resaurant


    Jane didn''t stop cursing at Autumn even when she was being taken away by the security. Although her


    mood was ruined by Jane''s words, her spirits were lifted when she turned around and found Charles by


    her side. "How did you know?" she asked him.


    "I called me and told me what happened. I happened to be around the area dealing with some


    business, so I came here as soon as I got I''s call." Charles patted her head gently and said, "You


    shouldn''t be so kind to everybody unless you want to be pushed around by people. Do you understand


    me?"


    Although Charles med her, he did so in an affectionate tone. Autumn scratched her head and stuck


    her tongue out to him like a child.


    "Why don''t we get something to eat?" Charles suggested as he checked the time.


    "Wait for a moment. Let me finish the meeting." Autumn felt extremely disappointed that the meeting


    had to be stopped because of Jane''s intrusion.


    She felt like she was always burdening Charles with her problems. Whether it was when they were in


    Japan or now, she realized that she couldn''t solve her problems without his help.


    Thus, she really wanted to excel at her work to show Charles all the progress she had made by herself.


    "I''ll wait for you then." Charles sat beside Autumn while the rest of the participants prepared for the


    meeting. I was amazed to see Charles in the meeting room after she returned from escorting Jane


    out of thepany with the help of the security guards.


    "You can carry on. I''m just an onlooker." Charles smiled at I.


    Autumn didn''t think it was inappropriate to have Charles attend the meeting as he was the main


    shareholder of thepany; he could stay there everyday if he wanted to.


    "I apologize that our meeting was abruptly interrupted just now." Then she continued, "It''s wise of us to


    give up the project of Light House Company but... we have all put so much work and time on it, I won''t


    let our efforts go to waste. I promise to give you your deserved bonuses, in return, I urge you to put


    your heart and soul into the project of Giant Promise Company from now on. I also hope that you can


    ce your trust on me as well, I won''t let you down."


    "Manager Ye, are you really going to give us bonuses?" Some of the employees were doubtful of what


    she said, since the project had failed.


    "Yes, I am." Autumn nodded her head and assured them, "I promise I won''t let your efforts go


    unrewarded. Although we lost that contract, I willpensate for your efforts with my own money.


    Moving on, I hope you can help me get the project of Giant Promise Company."


    "Rest assured, we will work hard for it!" The employees who were previously skeptical of Autumn, now


    felt differently after getting assurances from her.


    "Moreover, " Charles began speaking abruptly, "If you canplete the project of Giant Promise


    Company, I will give everybody several days of paid leave. You can go anywhere you want to and I''ll


    pay all the costs."


    Everyone got excited when they heard the good news. Charles tried to encourage the employees to


    work hard so that Autumn could carry out her n easily.


    "Then I think we should... thank Mr. Lu for his support." I called for the rest of the employees to give


    Charles a round of apuse.


    Autumn checked the time and said, "It''s time for our lunch break. Let''s take a break, and then we can


    continue to discuss about the details of the project in the afternoon."


    "I." Autumn called I after all the other employees had left the room. "Let''s have lunch together, "


    Autumn insisted.


    "Sorry, I can''t go with you." I rejected with a smile. Then she added, "I don''t want to ruin your


    romantic date. You can take this chance to enjoy some time together and I''ll eat lunch together with our


    colleagues."


    "I..." Autumn tried to hold her back but she ran away quickly. Autumn then turned to Charles and


    said, "Let''s go grab a lunch."


    "Okay." Charles nodded his head. Autumn picked a small restaurant nearby to bring Charles along.


    Charles frowned when he saw how dirty the ce was, but he didn''t say anything to Autumn because


    she wanted to eat there.


    "What? Don''t you like this restaurant?" she asked him. Autumn wiped the table and quickly cleaned the


    tableware for Charles.


    Charles wasn''t a picky person, generally speaking, but this restaurant... looked really dirty. "Why do


    you choose this restaurant?"


    Autumn smiled and answered, "During the three years that I worked for Cloud Advertising Company, I


    often came here for lunch. It looks dirty and shabby on the outside but the food here is great. I promise


    you that you will love it as soon as you have a taste."


    Autumn was willing to take Charles to a small restaurant because she had already regarded him as her


    husband rather than her boss. She was more open to share all her past secrets with him now.


    "I am sure there are many other restaurants in the area with delicious food. Why not choose one that''s


    a little cleaner?" Charles felt a little ufortable to dine at that restaurant.


    Autumn burst intoughter as she looked into Charles''s eyes.


    Nobody would believe that such a handsome man in an expensive suit would eat lunch in this


    restaurant. Autumn was amused to see him sitting there.


    "Why are youughing?" Charles asked her out of confusion.


    "I don''t know." Autumn shook her hands and said, "Charles, I know you''ve never been to any shabby


    ces like this restaurant before, but I used to live around here. I want to open my heart and share my


    past with you. It''s an excellent restaurant even though it looks a little messy, so I want you to have a


    try."


    The owner of the restaurant approached them while they were talking. She greeted Autumn with a


    smile, "Hi, so nice to see you again and this is?"


    She looked at Charles carefully with tender eyes so that he wouldn''t feel unwanted.


    "He is my husband, " Autumn said proudly.


    Charles nodded and greeted her politely.


    "Really? Congrattions! Please help yourselves. I''ll prepare some more dishes for you!" The owner


    walked away happily.


    Autumn picked up a piece of pork and gave it to Charles. "How is it?" she asked him with great


    expectations in her eyes. "Is it delicious?"

    Charles had to admit that it was really good.


    Autumn was d to hear that he liked it. They smiled happily as they gazed into each other''s eyes.
