Chapter 447 Lin Muxue and Wen Qiuyue
Chapter 447 Lin Muxue and Wen Qiuyue
"Qiuqiu! Qiuqiu!" Yao Lingling on the small pedal pulled up the visor of her helmet and waved at her vigorously.
Cheng Qiuqiu's lips moved, and for a moment she didn't know what to say, so she just nodded silently.
"We just saw you on the road and followed you here on purpose."
Gao Junfeng looked at the two people riding the motorcycle, chuckled and asked, "Qiuqiu, is this your friend?"
"Yeah." Cheng Qiuqiu nodded, pursing her lips.
Yao Lingling looked at the boy sitting in the driver's seat and said with a cheerful smile: "Hello handsome boy, your car is so cool! Continental GT, my dream car."
"Haha, hello, I'm Qiuqiu's friend, Gao Junfeng." Gao Junfeng raised his eyebrows, leaned his body slightly, and waved at the two of them in a pretentious manner, looking very stylish.
"I'm Yao Lingling." Yao Lingling looked up at the traffic light and said with a smile, "The light will turn green soon. How about we stop on the side road? We brought a gift for Qiuqiu. It's in her schoolbag."
"OK, no problem, I'll pull over after the intersection."
Cheng Qiuqiu clenched her hands suddenly and bit her lips hard.
I said in the group myself in the morning that I was not feeling well and needed to stay home to rest, so I couldn’t ride with them.
As a result, he was caught at noon and his lie was exposed.
She was not good at speaking and her mind was filled with panic and shame.
I don't know how to face both of them.
When the red light turned green, the Bentley Continental accelerated and stopped on the auxiliary road with the hazard lights on.
Soon, two motorcycles arrived.
Yao Lingling jumped out of the car, unzipped her backpack, took out a small box and handed it over. "This is a bookmark made of Xishan ginkgo leaves. It's very beautiful. Tang Song said that your name goes well with autumn ginkgo leaves, so we chose this gift."
"Thank you." Cheng Qiuqiu took the gift and her throat moved, but she didn't say much.
Hearing the name "Tang Song", Gao Junfeng was stunned and looked at the boy standing there in surprise.
Then, the mask of the black helmet was pulled up, and a handsome face appeared in front of him.
Not-so-nice memories gradually came to Gao Junfeng's mind, causing the corners of his eyes to twitch.
Previously at the bank's private party, Tang Song really stole the show.
The most important thing is that he actually hooked up with the only daughter of the company's managing director Tian Chengye, which is simply enviable.
I didn’t expect to meet him here, and he’s Qiuqiu’s friend.
"Assistant Gao, long time no see." Tang Song looked at him calmly.
Gao Junfeng took a deep breath, leaned against the Bentley, raised his head slightly, and said in high spirits: "It's been a long time since we last met."
Yao Lingling blinked in surprise, "Oh! You two know each other?"
Gao Junfeng nodded slightly, "Haha, I met him before at a private party held by the bank."
When they met again today, he was driving a Bentley and Tang Song was riding a scooter. They finally felt a little proud.
Cheng Qiuqiu was stunned for a moment, raised her head in surprise and looked at Tang Song.
Their eyes met, and Tang Song said in a natural tone: "Qiuqiu, how are you? Are you feeling better?"
"Yeah, it's okay now." Cheng Qiuqiu said in a low voice and immediately looked away.
"I'm glad you're okay. We noticed you didn't reply to messages in the group and were worried about you." Yao Lingling looked at Gao Junfeng and said teasingly, "So you have an appointment with someone else. Why didn't you tell us earlier? We won't blame you."
Cheng Qiuqiu quickly shook her head and said, "No, Brother Junfeng came to me for something, so I came out."
"Okay, I was just joking." Yao Lingling smiled and blinked, "It's okay."
Cheng Qiuqiu took a deep breath and looked at Tang Song again. Her lips moved and she wanted to say something but didn't know what to say.
Just pinching your fingers hard with both hands.
Noticing this scene, Gao Junfeng frowned slightly and said, "Qiuqiu and I still have things to deal with, otherwise we can have a meal together. I'll take my leave today and we'll meet again when we have the chance."
"Yeah, okay." Yao Lingling nodded, smiled and made an OK gesture, "Bye~, be careful on the road."
"Bye-Bye."
Cheng Qiuqiu took a deep breath and said, "Bye Lingling, bye Tang Song."
"Bye-Bye."
Accompanied by the roar of the engine, the Bentley Continental started slowly and merged into the main road of Huaian Road.
Looking at Yao Lingling's eyes still looking around.
Tang Song smiled and patted her butt, "What's wrong? Can't you take your eyes off the handsome guy?"
"Ah! Why are you hitting me again!" Yao Lingling took a half step back and pinched Tang Song's arm gently, then explained: "I was looking at the car, not at some handsome guy, and... he is not as handsome as you, senior. If I have to look at anything, it should be you!"
As she spoke, Yao Lingling stared at Tang Song's face under the helmet with a lecherous expression on her face.
Tang Song laughed a few times, gently put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Lingling, we have such a close relationship. If you really have any ideas, we can find a quiet place for you to enjoy them."
Yao Lingling's face immediately turned red, and she pretended to joke, "Hey, hey, hey! You said it, so you can't deny it when the time comes!"
"Don't worry, I'll keep my word." Tang Song said with a smile, "I'm not like someone who only talks about being generous."
"How can they be the same? Senior is so bad!"
The two of them laughed for a long time.
Yao Lingling came close to him and said in a charming tone: "But, if senior can also drive me for a ride in his Bentley Continental, then I will find a quiet place and let senior feel the feel of fake breasts, hehe."
After playing with Tang Song for so long today, she felt very relaxed and spoke with less reservations.
When I made this request, I didn't expect Tang Song to agree. It was just a casual joke.
Hearing her words, Tang Song coughed lightly and asked seriously, "How do you know I have a Bentley Continental?"
"Puchi——hahaha——" Yao Lingling laughed so hard that she bent over.
After a long while, she calmed down and said with a smile: "Senior, you are so funny!"
Tang Song knocked on her helmet and said, "I say, you are not going to play a trick on me again this time, are you?"
"How could that be!" Yao Lingling quickly shook her head, winked playfully, and said with a smile: "I have to go to the company this afternoon, and I won't be done until around 8 o'clock in the evening. How about you drive a Bentley Continental to pick me up then? To be honest, if you drive a Bentley, you will definitely be many times more handsome than Gao Junfeng!"
"You have good taste!" Tang Song nodded approvingly, "Okay then, I'll pick you up when you're done with your work tonight."
He has a good impression of this cheerful and generous cyber girlfriend and junior high school girl, and he likes the relaxed and pleasant atmosphere when he is with her.
Of course, he also wanted to see what expression his junior high school girl would have when she saw that he was actually driving a Continental.
It’s interesting to think about it.
For Tang Song today, in addition to improving the charm score, more is the pursuit of meaningful and interesting things.
Yao Lingling said with a smile: "Senior, you said you would come to pick me up, and I took it seriously."
Tang Song nodded and said, "Yeah, I took it seriously too."
Yao Lingling blushed, "Then... I'll send you a message then. Mainly because I'm not sure when I'll be done with my work."
The Yan Province International Fashion Exhibition will open in 3 days, and the company is actually very busy.
She stayed up late to finish all the design work on hand, so she had half a day to ride with Tang Song.
However, I had to rush back before 2 pm, meet up with the team, prepare the display stands and models, and check the samples for exhibition.
In fact, it doesn’t matter whether it is a Bentley or not. She also thinks Tang Song is joking with her.
What really concerned her was the fact that Tang Song came to pick her up after get off work.
This kind of romantic plot only happens occasionally in dreams.
Just thinking about it makes me excited, so it’s definitely not to be missed.
At noon, the two found a small restaurant that Yao Lingling often went to.
We ordered some spicy and delicious stir-fried dishes and ate with big mouthfuls while chatting happily.
Yao Lingling, who had a congenitally healthy body, had a great appetite and drank two bowls of rice by herself.
Before parting.
Yao Lingling said with longing: "This Yan Province International Fashion Exhibition is very important for our local enterprises. If my work can win an award in this exhibition, maybe I can become a famous designer one day in the future."
She glanced at Tang Song and thought to herself: Maybe by then, I can tell you openly that I like you.
But in the end, he said in a joking tone: "When the time comes, I will buy myself a Bentley Continental and take you for a ride!"
Tang Song smiled, stretched out his hand and pinched Yao Lingling's cheek, and said affirmatively: "I think you can definitely achieve this goal, famous designer Lingling."
Currently, Rongliu Capital and Juqing Huijin are already in contact with the major shareholders of Huachang Clothing.
Once he gains control of the company, Songmei Clothing will set up its own clothing design team.
He is very optimistic about this junior school girl.
Yao Lingling clasped her hands together and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Senior. I will work hard."
"Okay, bye then."
"Bye, senior." Yao Lingling waved reluctantly and rode away slowly on her scooter.
Watch her back disappear.
Tang Song put on gloves and a helmet, got on the motorcycle, and drove towards Yan Jingtian City.
After returning home, I took a quick shower and changed into comfortable casual clothes.
Tang Song went straight to the study, put on Tang Song's glasses, and turned on the computer.
In the morning, Jiang Yourong sent the information of the company she mentioned.
After all, it is related to the main task, and it can also complement Songmei Clothing. He attaches great importance to this company.
Click on the attachment information.
The company details are presented one by one.
Hangzhou Yimai Technology Co., Ltd., established in 2021, is a technology company with AI as its core, focusing on the intelligent upgrading of the apparel industry.
The CEO is a former senior technical expert of Alibaba.
Most of the entrepreneurial team members are PhDs or masters in computer science, and architects from large companies.
In addition, there are also supply chain directors from well-known clothing companies.
Relying on a luxurious entrepreneurial team, their achievements are very impressive.
Revenue in 2022 was 1.1 million, a year-on-year increase of 150%.
Among the investors, there are also well-known investment institutions such as Penguin Investments and Matrix China.
The technological breakthrough that Jiang Yourong mentioned is that Yimai Technology has trained a set of large models for the clothing industry.
It can not only help designers quickly generate clothing design drafts, but also provide intelligent recommendations on fabrics, colors, and styles.
It can also provide real-time inventory management, supplier matching and logistics optimization services to reduce supply chain costs.
Although it is not online yet, the effect is very good.
That is why we started planning for the B+ round of financing just three months after the B round.
Jiang Yourong was unable to obtain specific financing information.
However, a conservative estimate is that it will not be less than 5 million US dollars.
It is worth mentioning that Yimai Technology will participate in the event "Investors' Night, Leading the Future with Intelligence" to be held in Shanghai later.
Demonstrate the company's strength and vision, attract potential investors, and promote international layout. As a high-tech enterprise, especially in the booming AI field, Yimai Technology has no shortage of investors, and they hope to obtain more strategic resources and industry networks through investors.
Tang Song looked at the lines of information above and felt eager to try.
Just as described in the growth plan mission, after becoming the controller of "Confluent Capital Limited", he, who has had many complete venture capital experiences, is ready to enter the primary investment market.
He is indeed excited to be involved in investing in such technology companies and to have in-depth contact with top investment institutions.
……
6:30 p.m.
Yuhua Business Building, Shangya Fashion Design.
Xiao Mingxuan clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention, and said loudly: "Everyone has worked hard today. The dinner I ordered for you has been placed in the activity area. There is also milk tea, cake, and fruit. Everyone can help yourself!"
"Clap, clap, clap——" warm applause rang out.
"Long live President Xiao!" "President Xiao is so generous!"
Li Shumin shouted excitedly, muttering excitedly: "Great, milk tea, cake... here I come!"
Yao Lingling smiled and said, "You are the greediest one. You were even shouting yesterday that you wanted to lose weight."
"Hey, to lose weight you have to learn to be flexible. This is free, you definitely can't miss it!"
The two chatted and laughed, and followed their colleagues out of the office area.
When I arrived at the activity area, I received a delicious set lunch and a cup of milk tea.
Yao Lingling sat at the dining table, took a lot of photos, and shared them with Tang Song.
The message read: "I've already eaten. The boss treated me. There were also fruit snacks. It was delicious!"
[Tang Song: "I'm hungry after watching this. I'll go downstairs and eat."]
Yao Lingling took a sip of milk tea and replied with a smile: "Senior, you said you would pick me up today, and I took it seriously!"
[Tang Song: "Of course, I will keep my word."]
【Tang and Song Dynasty: Caress.gif】
When Yao Lingling saw the emoticons he sent, her face turned red instantly.
Biting the straw, he hesitated for a long time and replied with an emoticon of “lululu”.
"Who are you chatting with? You look so happy." A voice came, and Xiao Mingxuan sat opposite her with a lunch box.
Yao Lingling put her phone back and said with a smile, "I was sharing the company's benefits with my friends, and I also praised you, Mr. Xiao."
"Not bad, not bad. He is a good employee who knows how to repay his kindness."
"Of course not. Don't forget about me, your bootlicker, when you get a promotion and a raise."
The two joked a bit.
Xiao Mingxuan said casually: "You don't seem to ride a motorcycle today. You won't get off work until after 8 o'clock. Do you want to take my free express car?"
Li Shumin, who was eating braised pork, immediately raised her head and was about to speak when her foot was kicked.
Yao Lingling shook her head and smiled, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Xiao! But I have already made an appointment with a friend today, and he will pick me up later, so I won't bother you. I'll take your car next time I have the chance!"
Xiao Mingxuan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh? Which friend?"
Yao Lingling took a bite of meat and said in a relaxed tone, "Haha, Mr. Xiao, don't worry, he is a reliable friend and will not abduct me away!"
After hearing Yao Lingling's reply, Xiao Mingxuan's eyes flickered slightly and he didn't ask any more questions.
But I always have a bad feeling in my heart.
Yao Lingling did occasionally refuse his invitations, but this was the first time she used this excuse.
Taking over the shift at night has a different meaning if it is a man.
A sumptuous dinner ended.
Yao Lingling and Li Shumin returned to the warehouse and began to check samples and prepare spare items such as needles and thread, pins, hangers, etc.
Li Shumin patted Yao Lingling on the back and asked in a low voice: "Did you just make up an excuse, or did someone really come to pick you up?"
"Of course there is such a person!"
"Oh? Who is it? Could it be..." Li Shumin's eyes sparkled as she asked, "Senior Tang Song?"
Yao Lingling smiled without saying anything, twisted her body playfully, and looked very proud.
"Wow, you're such a fake Ling, have you managed to scam Senior Tang Song? I've come to pick you up from get off work!"
Yao Lingling said fiercely: "Hey, hey, hey! I'm warning you, don't call me that nickname!"
Li Shumin asked excitedly: "How far have you progressed? Have you kissed?"
Yao Lingling blushed and patted her head. "Oh, what are you thinking about? There's nothing! We are good friends! Hurry up and work hard, or I'll deduct your performance!"
Looking at her good sister who was angry and embarrassed, Li Shumin made a face at her and said nothing more.
From her perspective, she actually likes Xiao Mingxuan very much. He is tall, rich and handsome, the only child in the family, and has a good personality.
They are high-quality men that are hard for them to come into contact with.
But ever since the last Chinese Valentine's Day gift incident, she felt...
Actually, senior Tang Song is also very good.
He is also gentler in character, more handsome, and more generous.
He is the "male god" that the sisters watched grow up.
At the beginning, on Xiaohongshu, she worked as a hairstyle consultant, helping Tang Song to transform himself online.
Although we treated each other as electronic pets at the time, subsequent offline encounters and repeated contacts have made us become good friends.
If Lingling can successfully get along with the senior, it would be a good choice.
The sky gradually darkened.
"Bye, Lingling, Minmin, I'm leaving first."
"Sister Xuan, bye."
"Let's go, Lingling. Bye."
...
It was past 7 o'clock in the evening and my colleagues left one after another.
There are fewer and fewer people in the office area.
In fact, the entire Qimeng business unit only has 1 design director and 4 core designers.
The others are assistant designers, pattern makers, sales, marketing planners, etc.
Logically speaking, as one of the four core designers, Yao Lingling does not need to work overtime until the end.
However, she has too little experience, having only been with Shangya Fashion Design for a year and a half.
Thanks to Xiao Mingxuan's help, he was able to become a core designer of the high-end brand "Qimeng" from a small assistant designer in a short period of time.
Being in such a team, it is inevitable that there will be a lot of gossip and the pressure will be extremely high.
Yao Lingling didn't want others to look down on her, nor did she want to let Xiao Mingxuan down, so she was always the last one to leave after working overtime, and she tried to arrive early every day and was extremely serious and responsible at work.
And this Yan Province International Fashion Exhibition is an opportunity for her to prove herself.
……
Yuhua Business Building, Room 1404, Xuetang Culture.
In the office of more than 100 square meters, computers, printers, water dispensers and other equipment are all available, and various documents are neatly placed on the desk.
Xu Ning turned off the last light, locked the glass door, walked into the elevator, and breathed a sigh of relief.
According to Xiaoxue, the Yannan Short Drama Base will be put into use next week, and the artist agency they have been preparing for a long time will finally be officially operational.
Today, she gathered a group of artists with the best qualifications to the company and completed the preliminary registration and review.
Although we lacked experience and our efficiency was not very high, we finally completed the task.
Xiaoxue has also promised to recruit two clerks for her soon to help the company get back on track.
Thinking of the company's thriving prospects, Xu Ning felt a warm feeling in his heart.
Perhaps, Xuetang Culture can really grow and develop, not only helping her repay her debts, but also allowing her to live a better life.
"Ding——" The elevator door slowly opened.
Xu Ning took out his work badge, swiped the access card, and walked quickly towards the door of the office building.
Suddenly, she stopped and looked towards the corner of the lobby in astonishment.
A familiar figure was sitting on the sofa in the open beverage shop.
The orange wavy hair falls naturally, and she wears a white silk shirt with suit pants and stiletto high heels.
On that pretty face, the corners of her bright red lips were slightly raised, her eyes were cold and arrogant, and she was staring at the direction of the elevator.
Wen Qiuyue!
Xu Ning took a deep breath, took out her cell phone from her bag, and walked quickly out of the office building.
……
Financial center of Yan Province.
The matte gray Porsche 911 slowly drove out of the basement and merged into the main road.
Lin Muxue held the steering wheel, her slender fingers tapping lightly to the music.
She cared more than anyone else about Tang Song's proposal to acquire Huachang Clothing.
She worked overtime at the company throughout the weekend, and together with employees from the investment and risk departments, conducted a detailed analysis and research on Huashang Clothing.
It was not until after 7 o'clock in the evening that she sent the compiled report to Tang Song and left work with peace of mind.
"Ding-ling-ling——" The cell phone rang suddenly.
Lin Muxue glanced at the caller ID, answered the call, and said briskly: "Hello? Xu Ning, what's the matter?"
Soon, Xu Ning's somewhat nervous voice came from the receiver: "Xiaoxue, I met Wen Qiuyue in Yuhua Business Building!"
Lin Muxue was startled, and her eyes became sharp in an instant: "Is she still there?"
"Yes, she was sitting in the coffee shop on the first floor. She was probably waiting for her fiancé. But her expression was very strange. It was just like when she was about to lose her temper. I was so scared that I hurried out."
Lin Muxue gripped the steering wheel tightly, unable to suppress the restlessness in her heart any longer: "Wait for me at the coffee shop, I'll pick you up now."
"Ah! Xiaoxue, don't be impulsive!"
Lin Muxue raised the corners of her mouth and said in a low voice: "Haha, don't worry, I'm not stupid."
After saying that, she hung up the phone, turned the steering wheel, and drove towards Yuhua Business Building.
Wen Qiuyue is an indelible psychological shadow for her.
For a long time, she would even wake up from nightmares.
If she were to say who she most wanted to see after becoming successful, it would definitely be Wen Qiuyue.
Although she had already planned her trip for next Wednesday, she really couldn't wait.
She wished she could appear in front of Wen Qiuyue immediately, look down at her from above, and let this woman who had once trampled on her self-esteem take a good look at herself now.
