Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 830: Chapter 830: Capsized in the Gutter

In front of two floral clocks, in the city of Green City, the first Cherry Food Competition was about to begin. Cheng Su and her group were about to head to the venue, but they had been waiting in the lobby for a long time, and Old Liu and Xiao Zhu had yet to show up.

Cheng Su glanced at the time on her wrist and instructed Wang Bo, "Go check on them and see what’s taking them so long, why aren’t they here yet?"

Wang Bo nodded and had just taken a step when he saw the two of them approaching. But seeing their faces and the way they walked, Wang Bo’s expression changed.

"President Cheng!" Wang Bo’s face turned pale as he looked at Cheng Su.

Cheng Su looked over, and her expression changed drastically too. Ning Ge, not understanding, followed her gaze and his face fell.

The two walked unsteadily, their faces pale green, something was clearly wrong; if you said nothing was the matter, no one would believe it.

"What’s going on with you?" Cheng Su noticed them clutching their stomachs and immediately began to suspect something.

Xiao Zhu said with a mournful face, "Diarrhea. I’ve had it since last night, all the way till this morning."

Cheng Su’s expression turned very unpleasant. Now, at this moment, they say they have diarrhea?

"Last night we had dinner together, how come only the two of you got diarrhea? What did you eat?" Wang Bo asked through gritted teeth.

Old Liu’s face was filled with guilt as he said, "We went out to have a late-night snack last night."

So that’s what happened.

"We’ve already taken medicine, and we can hold on," Xiao Zhu said through chattering teeth.

Their legs were shaky and faces pale, what could they possibly hold on to?

Ning Ge and Cheng Su exchanged a look, both seeing the seriousness in each other’s eyes.

How could it be such a coincidence that just the two of them got diarrhea after a midnight snack?

"President Cheng, this..." Wang Bo was extremely anxious.

After preparing for so long, could it all fall apart at the crucial moment?

"Let’s go, head to the competition venue first. If we don’t check in on time, it’ll be considered forfeiting," Cheng Su said through gritted teeth.

Wang Bo and Zhao Da had no choice but to pick up their things and help Old Liu and the others on their way.

"What do you think?" Ning Ge asked, looking at Cheng Su.

"I didn’t expect our company’s influence to be so significant that people would be so apprehensive," Cheng Su said coldly.

She wasn’t a fool. Reaching this point, right before the competition, it just so happened they both went out for a midnight snack and got diarrhea?

Surely, when they went out, someone had targeted them.

"This hotel was booked by the hosts, most of the people here are participants, it’s hard to find out who did it now," Ning Ge said equally coldly.

Cheng Su snorted and said, "Even if we find out, what can we do? Who’s to blame? Diarrhea doesn’t kill you; it just makes competing impossible. If you’re not careful and hit a snag, you can’t blame others. Besides, now isn’t the time to pursue this."

Ning Ge heard the anger in her voice and asked, "What should we do now? I don’t think they’ll be able to hold up during the competition."

Cheng Su glanced at him, "Did you forget about me?"

"You’re going personally?" Ning Ge was taken aback and said, "How can you manage on your own?"

"There are seven of us here. Even if we weren’t all deeply involved in the sauce simmering process, we know how it goes. I was part of it, so I’ll handle the sauce simmering myself. I just need to find someone to assist me," Cheng Su said.

Cheng Su was also very angry, but there was no way around it. Getting upset now wouldn’t solve the problem.

"Yanmei is a woman, she’s more meticulous, so it’ll just be Yanmei and me up there," Cheng Su said, looking at Mai Yanmei.

"No. Both of you are women; I’ll go with you. If you don’t have enough strength while stirring the sauce, I can step in, I’m a man, I’ve got more strength," Ning Ge said, "Besides, I can handle a knife too."

Cheng Su was momentarily stunned, and seeing the determination in his eyes, she nodded.
