BXBX NOVEL Chapter 260: Don’t Give Him A Chance _1
Seeing Mo Shiting still looked upset, Li Jinyao couldn’t help but gossip and ask: “You ran over here first thing in the morning and stayed all day. Did you have an argument with Gu Li?”
“None of your business.”
Mo Shiting responded curtly.
“How is it not my business? You don’t go toyourcompany and just stay here. It seriously affects me.”
Li Jinyao complained.
Mo Shiting gave him a cold look: “You can pretend I’m not here.”
“Ha…”
Li Jinyao laughed at his statement, “Your presence is so strong, even if I were blind, I would know you were here, let alone I’m not blind.”
Mo Shiting:”…”
He ignored Li Jinyao and poured himself another drink.
Li Jinyao walked over and snatched his wine glass away: “Stop drinking. Is it necessary to get yourself into such a mess over a woman? If it really doesn’t work out, just divorce her, so you don’t have to be so miserable all the time.” Mo Shiting shot him a sharp gaze, “Shut up!”
“Okay, I won’t say anything anymore.”
Li Jinyao put down the wine glass and added a sentence: “But don’t say I didn’t warn you. Murong Si is not simple, and he harbors ill feelings towards Gu Li. Don’t give him any chance…Hey, where are you going?”
Seeing Mo Shiting left before he finished speaking, Li Jinyao couldn’t help but shout out.
Without answering, Mo Shiting quickly disappeared from Li Jinyao’s sight.
Knowing that Mo Shiting was eager to return home and reconcile with his wife, Li Jinyao crossed his arms, hooked his lips, and chuckled: “Such a stubborn fool!”
After having lunch with Murong Si, Gu Li took a taxi to Riverside Creative Park.
Da Ha and Song Yunque were all busy there, and surprisingly, Lin Ranzhu was there too.
“Sister Gu Li…”
Lin Ranzhu was delighted to see Gu Li.
Gu Li asked in surprise: “What are you doing here?”
“Boss, she is the intern I just recruited.”
Da Ha explained with a smile, “A few days ago, I went to a coffee shop and forgot my phone there. Little Lin helped to collect it. I thought she was good, so I kept her contact. This morning, I asked her if she would like to do an internship, and she agreed right away.”
Da Ha had no clue that Gu Li had saved Lin Ranzhu a few days ago, let alone that Gu Li had intentions to cultivate Lin Ranzhu.
Unexpectedly, he had accidentally recruited Lin Ranzhu into the company. Gu
Li couldn’t help but want to shout “Fate!”
Seeing that Gu Li didn’t object, Da Ha laughed brightly: “Boss, to celebrate our company’s new joiner, you must treat us to afternoon tea, right?”
Gu Li slapped him on the head, “In your dreams!”
“So stingy!”
Da Ha sniffled, “Just a tea, it’snot going to break you.”
No sooner had he finished his complain than he heard Gu Li laugh: “Afternoon tea, or a barbecue dinner tonight, choose one?”
“Haha, definitely barbecue!”
Da Ha made his choice without hesitation.
Song Yunque immediately added, “Then, sister-in-law will treat us to a barbecue, and I will treat everyone to karaoke. As for the afternoon tea, Da Ha, you treat first.”
Gu Li chuckled: “You do have everything figured out.”
Song Yunque beamed with pride: “Of course. Da Ha, are you not in a hurry to order the afternoon tea?”
Da Ha: “…”
Somewhat unexpectedly, he felt like he had become the scapegoat.
Watching the two young men placing the delivery orders together, Gu Li pulled Lin Ranzhu aside.
“Are you sure you want to join my company?”
“Yes, I’m thrilled to have this opportunity.”
Lin Ranzhu was excited, “Sister Gu Li, I promise I will do my best.”
“What can you do?”
“I… I can do odd jobs. But, school is about to start, can I work part-time?”
Lin Ranzhu asked timidly.
For the first time, she wished she could grow up quickly.
Gu Li sized her up and was about to speak when Song Yunque called her, “Sister-in-law, what do you and Little Lin want to eat?”
“What do you want?”
Gu Li asked Lin Ranzhu.
Lin Ranzhu felt a bit embarrassed and said: “I’ll have the same as you.”
“Okay. Two lattes, tiramisu, durian mille crepes, chocolate rice cakes, yam egg yolk flaky pastry, and a few profiteroles.”
Gu Li ordered several desserts in one breath.
Da Ha pouted, muttered under his breath: “Eating so much, be careful not to get fat.”
“What did you say?”
Gu Li heard that he had some complaints.
Da Ha quickly said: “Nothing, just sayingyou have a good appetite.”
“Hmm.”
Gu Li chuckled then got back to the topic with Lin Ranzhu: “You are very talented, plus you have a good appearance. If you are willing to debut as a singer, I can arrange that.”
“Really?”
Lin Ranzhu was very surprised.
She loves creating and singing. It was definitely a lie if she said she didn’t have a dream to be a star, just that this dream was dimmed after her cousin’s set-up.
“Yes.”
Gu Li nodded, her face somewhat serious, “But, if you want to debut, you must pay the corresponding price.”
“What price?”
Lin Ranzhu’s face changed slightly, her shoulders shook involuntarily.
Gu Li saw her reaction and couldn’t help but laugh, “Don’t worry, it won’t be what you think. In my company, there will not be any underlying rules.”
“I’m sorry, Sister Gu Li.”
Knowing that she had misunderstood Gu Li, Lin Ranzhu felt guilty.
Gu Li patted her shoulder, “It’s normal for you to think that way, I don’t blame you.”
“Then what is the ‘price’ you mentioned?”
“You’re 16, haven’t graduated from high school yet, right?”
“Yes, I’ll be going into my second year of senior high school in September.”
Lin Ranzhu answered honestly.
“How are your grades?”
“Grades…”
Bringing up her grades, Lin Ranzhu was really reluctant to speak, “I’m pretty dumb, apart from music, I don’t do well in any other subjects, I’m afraid it’s hard to get into a key university.”
“In that case, have you ever considered applying to an art school?”
“You mean…”
“If you choose to debut, it will not be possible for you to attend school like a normal student. The price I’m talking about is this. Are you willing?”
“You can think it over and give me an answer.”
“There’s no need to think, I agree.”
Lin Ranzhu responded without hesitation.
She believed that Gu Li would not trick her.
She was willing to entrust her future to Gu Li.
Seeing the determined look in Lin Ranzhu’ s eyes and her complete trust in herself, Gu Li was moved: “Okay! Then let’s work hard together.”
“Yes, Yes!!!”
Lin Ranzhu nodded like beating a drum, perhaps too excited, her eyes even turned a bit moist.
Blue Sky and Blue Sea.
When Auntie Guan saw Mo Shiting entering the house, tired from the journey, she was very surprised: “Young Master, didn’t you go abroad? How come you are back so soon?”
Mo Shiting made up an excuse on the spot: “I had an urgent matter and changed my itinerary. Where is she?”
“Young Madam went out early in the morning and hasn’t come back yet.”
After reporting to Mo Shiting, Auntie Guan couldn’t help but suggest, “Young Master, why don’t you call Young Madam and ask if she’s coming back for dinner?”
