Chapter 109 Unexpected Setbacks
Now that she has a new understanding of time travel, and now that she understands that there are some people and things that she cannot escape, Gu Xiran becomes more calm about it in the following life.Not only face life positively, but also no longer choose any escape.

So when the new brand was being established and it was inevitable that she and Lin Yixin would have to work together, Gu Xiran simply chose to forget what happened that day.

As if nothing had happened, he simply regarded himself as Lin Yixin's partner and kept a certain distance for the conversation.

"According to the budget and contract requirements, we selected several office locations for 'Mo'. Finally, among these several, we chose this office." Gu Xiran said while leading the executives of Xinrui Company led by Lin Yixin While taking it into the selected office.

This is an office building located on Fifth Avenue in New York. Compared with most office buildings on this street, it is a bit old, and the facilities and supporting facilities are not so complete.But here is the office space that many well-known brands have chosen.They are all here to thrive, and then sprout into today's huge fashion kingdom.

Therefore, among the many available office locations, Gu Xiran chose this office as the office space in the initial stage of the establishment of 'Mo' based on economic reasons and this point.

She hopes that 'Mo' can become a brand loved by people in the United States and even the world, just like the well-known brands that have grown up here.

"The size and layout of the office and the location are quite good, but the facilities seem to be a bit old. Will this be a little inconvenient for the office in the future? Or...you can increase your budget and choose a good one. Let's use the place you want as 'Mo''s office!" Lin Yixin led someone to look through the entire office, and then returned to the lobby and said to Gu Xiran.

"No, I think this place is very good. It has all the necessary facilities, and the necessary service is no worse than other places. I think those old things are nothing compared to the development of the brand. They are all within the scope we can overcome. I think it is better to spend most of the funds on the quality of the brand or on advertising, so that 'Mo' can grow up as soon as possible." Glancing towards the office, In the end, Gu Xiran's eyes stopped on the big floor-to-ceiling glass directly in front of him, and he spoke to Lin Yixin contentedly.

"Since you've made your decision, then I don't have any opinions, so I'll choose this as the office of 'Mo'!" Lin Yixin looked at Gu Xiran and was silent for a while, seeing the determination in Gu Xiran's eyes, so he didn't say any more For any sentence, I chose to agree with Gu Xiran's decision.

"You have agreed to choose this place as the office location, then we will officially sign the contract with the owner later. We will start the recruitment of decoration and 'ink' personnel at the same time. By the way, I contacted this information A few online sales channels..." After one matter was resolved, Gu Xiran naturally began to explain the next work.The attitude is very serious, not sloppy at all.

At the beginning, such Gu Xiran was still very strange to Lin Yixin.

Because most of the time before, Lin Yixin's impression of Gu Xiran was still the image of a little girl who loves to cling to him, loves to play, and loves to make trouble.So when seeing Gu Xiran take work so seriously, Lin Yixin felt strange, but he was deeply attracted by such Gu Xiran.

In order to proceed step by step and not scare Gu Xiran away, Lin Yixin decided to slowly carry out the plan Gu Xiran pursued again.

So when talking about work, he tried his best not to destroy the harmony at the moment.

When the two of them negotiated about the next work of 'Mo', Lin Yixin was planning to invite Gu Xiran to dinner when suddenly a group of people entered the office with their things on their backs.

"Excuse me, this is a private venue. I don't know if you have anything to do?" Dries, who followed Lin Yixin's eyes, immediately stepped forward to ask the group of people who came in.

"We are from the decoration company. We received orders from our superiors to be responsible for the decoration of this office. You see... this is the document given by our company." The black foreman in the group stood up and walked in front of Driss Passed the document in his hand to Driss to see.

"Renovation!" With a lot of question marks, Dries took the document and began to look through it.

On the first page of the document, the address of the renovation is clearly stated as the location of this office.The following content also clearly states the requirements for the decoration of this office.

So Driss held up the document in his hand, and asked Gu Xiran, "Linda, did you place the order for this decoration company? Did you call here?"

"My order?" When asked, Gu Xiran immediately frowned, and said, "The lease contract here has not been signed yet, so how could I sign a contract with a decoration company in advance."

"Then this document clearly states that this is where they want to decorate." Dries handed the document in his hand to Gu Xiran, and pointed to the address signed on it to indicate emphatically.

"This is really strange!" Seeing the black and white content, Gu Xiran was also a little dumbfounded, and didn't know where the problem was for a while.

Under the watchful eyes of both the people from the decoration company and Xinrui Company, Gu Xiran took out his mobile phone and called the owner of this office directly.

When initially negotiating this office, Gu Xiran and Xiao Han met the owner of this office together, she was a very amiable and fashionable old lady.

This old lady can be regarded as an old man in the fashion industry. When she was young, she worked as a model and also did image design, so she has a deep affection for this industry.

When Gu Xiran communicated with the old lady, it can be said that they hit it off right away, and the chat was very pleasant.

Therefore, a good landlord can be regarded as a major reason why Gu Xiran finally chose this place as his office.

Encountering such a thing, Gu Xiran naturally immediately thought of that kind and amiable old lady.

The phone rang three times, and then the old lady's hearty and friendly voice rang out on the other end of the phone, calling out affectionately: "Dear Linda, why are you thinking of calling me today!"

"Mrs. Metz, I'm sorry to interrupt your lunch break. I have encountered something here, so I specially called you to inquire about it." Gu Xiran politely exchanged greetings with the old lady, and slowly brought up today's matter.

"Baby, what is it that makes you call me in such a hurry!"

"I met you before, didn't we want to rent your office on Fifth Avenue? Today we have taken a look at it, and we plan to make an appointment in the afternoon to sign a contract with you. I just don't know what went wrong, and a decoration company suddenly came here. He said that he received an order to come and renovate here. So I want to ask, is it the person you called?" Gu Xiran didn't want to affect the relationship between the two parties because of this incident, so he spoke in a very friendly manner, and tried his best to describe this incident as It was an accident that allowed both parties to have a step down.

"Are you talking about the office on Fifth Avenue?" The old lady fell silent when she heard this.

"Yes, do you know what happened?" Gu Xiran glanced at the person from the decoration company standing behind him, and continued to ask the old lady for an answer.

After a burst of chattering voices on the other end of the phone, the old lady finally spoke to Gu Xiran again and said, "Linda, I'm really sorry. I just asked my son and found out that he signed a contract with someone else yesterday. , rented that office to someone else."

"What about renting it to someone else?" Although he had this thought in his heart, Gu Xiran couldn't help raising his voice when he heard the answer.

After controlling my emotions a little bit, I continued to ask: "I remember we had an agreement before, and we agreed to give me two days to consider. Why did you rent it to someone else in advance and didn't give me a notice?"

"I just found out about this. I really don't know what to say to you except I'm sorry. How about I ask you to see if there are any other suitable offices for you to introduce to you!" The old lady said to this I am very sorry and I am trying my best to solve this matter.

But before Gu Xiran could answer, the old lady's phone was snatched by her son, and she said loudly to Gu Xiran on the phone: "Renting an office is a question of left and right, whether or not there is any money to rent is a question." .You didn’t put any deposit on me. Why should I wait for you to think it over. The other party paid twice as much as you for renting that office. Even a fool would know who to rent it to. So don’t call my mother The phone call, we are not sorry for you."

"How did you say that? It's called honesty. Verbal promises are recognized by the law. How can you do things like this?" Gu Xiran was really angry at the other party's unreasonableness, so he refuted.

"It's recognized by the law. What a joke. If you have the ability, take this to the court and sue me! If you don't plan to sue me, then don't call me to harass us, or I will go to the court to sue you for harassment." The male voice on the other end of the phone dropped these words fiercely, and quickly hung up the phone.

If the other party's attitude is friendly, explain the whole thing clearly and apologize, maybe Gu Xiran won't feel anything wrong.But such an attitude, as well as those few words at the end, really made Gu Xiran intolerable, and completely irritated her.

"What's wrong? What exactly happened?" Seeing the whole story, Lin Yixin walked up to Gu Xiran and asked with concern.

"The landlord's son rented this place to other people yesterday, and then told me in a very bad manner not to harass them, or he would sue me. This is really ridiculous and shameless." Putting the phone in his pocket, Gu Xiran said very dissatisfied.

"That is to say, our previous decision to choose this place as our office has to be changed!" Lin Yixin looked at the office and said to Gu Xiran.

"Well, I don't want to change the place, and there is no way not to change it." Gu Xiran really didn't want to admit this fact, but he had no way not to admit it, so he could only nod helplessly.And he murmured distressedly: "It will take several days to re-select the office space, and other preparations will also be backed up together. The troubles are really one wave after another."

The originally scheduled work nodes are proceeding in an orderly manner, moving in a good direction step by step.But it was such an accident that disrupted all the work at once.This made Gu Xiran very annoyed by this, and he didn't know what to say when he saw Xiao Han and Chen Yanan later.

"Since this is the case...it's not as good as the office matter, let me help you solve it! Wait for me for 2 minutes, and it will be ready soon." Lin Yixin touched his chin, then smiled gently at Gu Xiran, giving him peace of mind After looking at him, he called Dries to the corner.

"President, what's your order?" Driss asked respectfully.

"Go to the company right away and get the keys to the office building I bought last month." Lin Yixin handed a key to Driss and ordered in a low voice.

"The office building you bought last month... isn't that what you plan to buy as the company's new office? You asked me to pick it up, are you planning to use Miss Linda's 'ink' as an office?" Driss took the key , Immediately remembered the original purpose of this office building, and asked with doubts, reminding Lin Yixin of this original intention.

"I have this plan to buy this place, but now compared to those, I think it will be more suitable for 'Mo'. Anyway, our current office is also in a good location, whether to change it within a year or two It's not a big problem. So don't worry about these problems for me, go and get the keys quickly. I'll take them now and wait for you over there." Lin Yixin didn't think so much about these things at all, just simply He really wanted to solve Gu Xiran's troubles as soon as possible, because he didn't want to see the energetic Gu Xiran listless.

"President... don't blame me for talking too much. I think you put a lot of thought into Miss Linda's brand. For the brands you invested in before, you attended several important meetings, and then completely let go We will do it. But this time, you will do a lot of things yourself. After all... Is this Miss Linda too attractive? Or does she really have such great potential?"

Dries has been working with Lin Yixin since the establishment of Xinrui Company.For the temper of the young boss in front of him, he can be considered quite thorough.But it's the first time he's seen everything that revolves around one person and one brand in the current state, so he can't help but gossip with curiosity.

"Okay, just take care of your own affairs. Don't gossip like a woman. Whether she is more attractive or has more potential has nothing to do with you." Lin Yixin looked at Gu Xiran's back through Driss, with a smirk on his face. With a shallow smile.

For him at this moment, no matter how much he pays to get Gu Xiran back, he feels it is worth it.So a mere new office building is not in his eyes.

It's just... the accident that happened in renting this office building made him suspicious.I feel that behind this incident, it must not be that simple.

So he reached out and grabbed the collar of Driss who was about to leave, and called him back to him.

"What's the matter, President! Is there anything else you need to order?" Seeing Lin Yixin's serious face, Driss also became nervous.Desperately recalling what he said just now, to see if he said something wrong that made Lin Yixin look like this now.

"I don't think it's that simple that the office was suddenly rented out today. So after you send the key over, go and investigate for me who rented this office. The most important thing is, what is the purpose of the other party? Who is it for?" Lin Yixin explained his doubts to Dries.

"Okay, I will definitely investigate this matter, President, you can rest assured!" Dries nodded hard, patted his chest and took the matter to himself.Seeing that Lin Yixin had no other orders, he quickly left here and went to Xinrui Company to pick up the keys.

After watching Dries leave, Lin Yixin tidied up his clothes and returned to Gu Xiran's side.Asked softly: "What? Are you still troubled by this matter?"

"No, I'm thinking about the several office sites I selected before, and which place is more suitable as the office space for 'Mo'. After all, if this place is lost, the preliminary preparations for 'Mo' still have to continue, I can't always When you encounter a little setback, you will be decadent.”

The moment Lin Yixin left, Gu Xiran had already adjusted himself.I didn't want to be defeated by this small setback at all, so I quickly cheered up.

Pick up the materials that have not been discarded before and start researching.I plan to re-select the most suitable one among the several offices that have been abandoned.Hurry up to sign the contract, and hurry up to proceed with the next thing.

"Didn't you agree that I'll take care of the office affairs for you?" Seeing that Gu Xiran didn't listen to his own words, Lin Yixin became a little dissatisfied.

"I know you want to help me, but I also know that a suitable office space is not so easy to find. So instead of spending time and money and energy looking for it again, I would rather make a compromise and choose one of these. After all, ready-made things save the most time." Smiling sweetly at Lin Yixin, Gu Xiran accepted Lin Yixin's kindness, and continued to flip through the documents in his hand for comparison.

"Put down the things in your hands, and I will take you to a place. After reading there, if you still feel dissatisfied and want to choose these places, I will definitely not say a word!" After coming over and throwing it to the assistant behind him, Lin Yixin took Gu Xiran's hand and walked towards the door.

"Hey... Lin Yixin, can you stop doing this every time! This kind of behavior is very domineering, do you understand, I don't like it very much!" Being taken away by force again, Gu Xiran resisted dissatisfiedly, it was just such a protest , Lin Yixin didn't pay attention to it at all, and continued to do his own thing and pulled her away.

 happy new year~
