Jiang Ranran endured the pain and walked towards the light. Soon she arrived at the agreed place and saw Grandma Zhang and the children waiting there.
"What's wrong? Did you fall and get hurt?" Grandma Zhang asked worriedly when she saw Jiang Ranran limping towards her.
"Mom, are you in pain?" Dabao asked with concern.
"It doesn't hurt at all. It will be fine in a moment." Afraid that they would worry, she tried to walk normally.
It was already dark, with a few faint stars twinkling.
Before they had their meal, they walked into a snack bar.
Jiang Ranran used her mobile phone to search for hotels. If they couldn't find a place to stay, they would probably have to sleep on the streets tonight.
There were no rooms left in the low-priced hotels, so Jiang Ranran had to choose a star-rated hotel, but the prices were so expensive that it made her want to cry.
Not wanting the children to suffer, she gritted her teeth and booked a room. The money she had was enough to cover the cost.
It's difficult to find a comfortable place to live these days.
If what the landlady said was true, considering what the landlord said, Jiang Ranran understood that Jiang Zhen wanted to make her homeless on the streets, with nowhere to stay, and force her to leave.
"Mom, do we have no place to stay today?" Erbao asked.
Just wanted to tell the kids they have a place to stay tonight.
The cell phone suddenly rang. Jiang Ranran picked up the call. Not knowing what was said on the other end, the corners of her upturned mouth drooped and formed a straight line.
The person on the other end of the phone said: I'm sorry, ma'am. You are on our hotel's blacklist. We have cancelled the room you just booked. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.
Here, Mo Cheng put a document on the desk.
Gu Tingchen picked it up and took a look at it, frowned, glanced at it casually, and threw the document on the table.
"Add more capital?" Then he ordered, "Make an appointment with the general manager of the company in Country B, now."
"I'll go right away."
"Call Jiang Ranran too and go with me." Jiang Ranran performed very well last time.
Jiang Ranran picked up the unfamiliar call and heard Mo Cheng say, "Excuse me, Miss Jiang. I have something at the company that needs your attention. Where are you? I'll pick you up."
After giving the address, Mo Cheng arrived quickly.
There is no place to accommodate the children now, so Jiang Ranran asked Mo Cheng if he could let the children go to the company with him.
Mo Cheng hesitated. He couldn't make the decision on this matter. "I'll ask Mr. Gu."
Jiang Ranran didn't hold any hope in Gu Tingchen. He was cold-blooded and heartless, and would definitely not agree.
"Mr. Gu agreed."
Huh?
When they arrived at the company, Gu Tingchen arranged for Mo Cheng to take the children to the playground, accompanied by Grandma Zhang.
After explaining the situation to Jiang Ranran, the other party requested the company to increase the investment ratio.
The price was negotiated and there is a contract, which is protected by law.
He couldn't refuse directly for fear of losing face, so Gu Tingchen decided to solve the problem face to face.
"Mr. Gu wants me to be his translator again?"
"No?"
"Why, it's an honor."
Gu Tingchen snorted coldly, understanding what Jiang Ranran meant. If she translated well, he would certainly give her a raise.
Seeing Jiang Ranran always moving around, he noticed her red and swollen ankle, "What happened?"
"I sprained my ankle after jumping from the second floor."
"?" As expected, weird people always do things that are different from ordinary people.
Gu Tingchen's squatting action scared Jiang Ranran, "Boss Gu, what are you doing?"
Don't take off her shoes!
"You're not going to deal with this swelling. Are you planning to take a day off from work tomorrow?"
Gu Tingchen asked her to sit down, rubbed her ankle, and then pressed it gently.
"Ah, help!" She felt that her feet were no longer hers.
"If you can leave, leave as soon as possible. Your partners are waiting." How unsympathetic! Her feet...don't hurt anymore?
The dislocated part has been straightened. Apart from the pain I felt just now, I found it wasn't as painful after taking it for a while.
Gu Tingchen is truly a god.
When they arrived at the place, everyone was polite at first, but when the issue of increasing the capital was brought up, the other party said that after strict review, they found that the price they had originally estimated was far from enough. If Gu Tingchen did not agree to increase the capital, they would have to fill the vacant space themselves.
Now, whoever tries to fill this hole will suffer a loss.
The man opposite seemed to be a lawyer brought from Country B.
He can speak simple Chinese, so Gu Tingchen was communicating with him in Chinese just now.
When Gu Tingchen said he would handle it according to the contract, he excitedly spoke the language of their country.
Seeing that Gu Tingchen didn't respond, and knowing that he didn't understand, he said something to him.
Jiang Ranran heard him say: "Get out if you don't know the current situation."
He actually bullied Gu Tingchen and scolded him for not understanding him. How could she tolerate his bad temper?
"You self-righteous idiot." The man turned to look at Jiang Ranran. He didn't expect that besides them, there were other people here who could understand this language. Realizing his own gaffe, the man began to talk to Jiang Ranran.
This woman seemed easier to deal with than Gu Tingchen, but it turned out that he was overthinking it.
When Jiang Ranran was still a young lady from the prestigious Jiang family, she had seen and learned much more than others.
She told the man that the contract was legally binding and no one was obligated to pay for their mistakes, and raising their salary was out of the question.
If they insist on not implementing the contract, their losses will be even greater.
These men actually understood, they just wanted to fight for it a little longer, even if Gu Tingchen added a little more, they would feel a little more relaxed.
Gu Tingchen saw the conversation between the two people, and neither of them was giving in in terms of momentum.
Although he didn't understand what was said, it was obvious that the man was no match for Jiang Ranran and gradually fell silent.
Only Jiang Ranran was left speaking, and he obviously had the upper hand.
Gu Tingchen was attracted by the way she was strategizing at this moment.
If Gu Tingchen thought Jiang Ranran was interesting before, now he felt that she was glowing.
After the treatment, Gu Tingchen decided to give her a ride to find the children because she came to work despite being injured. Jiang Ranran was naturally willing to do so, as she could save every penny she could.
Mo Cheng was not there. When they came just now, Gu Tingchen was driving. He sat in the driver's seat and Jiang Ranran sat in the back seat.
The last time we rode in Lu Yuan’s car, we didn’t feel awkward even though we didn’t talk.
When they came just now, they were chatting about work naturally, but now they have nothing to talk about and the air is quiet.
She began to regret getting into Gu Tingchen's car.
Looking out the window at the busy traffic with boredom.
"You were excellent today."
Jiang Ranran thought she was hallucinating. Was Gu Tingchen praising her?
As if to confirm the authenticity of this matter, Gu Tingchen raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Ranran in the rearview mirror.
"From now on, the project in Country B is yours. You are fully responsible for it."
"With my current position, I'm not yet able to take on such a large order."
"Since it's handed over to you, I will naturally give you the corresponding rights." Does this mean that she will be promoted and get a raise again?
"YES" She is full of hope for the future.
Gu Tingchen looked at Jiang Ranran in the rearview mirror with a softer look in his eyes.
