Chapter 21
Can't you see that I don't want to sit with you? Luo Qingli complained inwardly, but still opened the back door obediently.
Never mind, it's not good to be too obvious.
After getting in the car, it slowly drove out of the parking lot and merged into the main road.
The car was quiet for a while. Luo Qingli sat upright with his hands placed neatly on his knees.
She turned her head to look at the scenery outside the car, but her mind couldn't help but recall the last time she rode in a car with Ji Jinsi.
My earlobes feel a little hot.
She didn't see that Ji Jinsi next to her was looking at her slightly red earlobe, stroking his fingers, as if he was missing something.
"Mr. Luo, is this your first time in Beicheng?" Sun Liang, who was driving, broke the silence.
"I've been here before." Luo Qingli replied.
"Oh, there are many sights worth seeing in our North City. Which ones have you seen, Mr. Luo?"
"I haven't seen it. I was in a hurry last time."
Luo Qingli did not lie. Although she had lived in North City for so many years, she had never visited those famous attractions.
Before I met Ji Jinsi, I didn’t have the time or money to go, and after I met Ji Jinsi, I didn’t have the chance to go.
"Oh, that's a shame. The historical sites in North City are still worth a visit. If you have time, Mr. Luo, please stay a little longer. I can introduce you to an authentic director."
"Thank you for your kindness, Minister Sun." Luo Qingli knew that Sun Liang was just being polite.
However, she was indeed interested in those scenes. Things that had been passed down for thousands of years were worth seeing.
"If Mr. Luo wants to see it, you can come to me and I will take you there." Ji Jinsi suddenly interjected.
Sun Liang was so shocked that he looked straight at the rearview mirror.
How fresh! Mr. Ji actually volunteered to be a tour guide!
Luo Qingli looked at Ji Jinsi in surprise, and looked directly into his dark eyes.
There were so many things in it that she didn't dare to look anymore.
Luo Qingli looked away and said with a wry smile, "Haha, Mr. Ji is a very busy man, so please don't bother me. I have friends in North City, and I can ask them to take me there."
Ji Jinsi withdrew his gaze and said nothing more.
As if sensing that the atmosphere was a little off, Sun Liang didn't dare to say anything more.
The three of them arrived in front of the factory in silence.
The security guard at the door recognized the license plate number immediately and let the car pass before it even reached the front.
Sun Liang didn't stop and drove straight to the factory gate.
After getting out of the car, Ji Jinsi said to Sun Liang, "Take Mr. Luo to visit the product display area and discuss cooperation matters."
Sun Liang knew that Ji Jinsi was going to take action, so he had to agree.
It's too late to tip off now, and don't blame him for not doing anything. He has heard some rumors recently that there are some problems in the factory.
Those guys in the factory thought they could rest easy since Mr. Li was on a business trip, but in the end, they were greeted by Mr. Ji, a big Buddha.
However, the life and death of that group of people had nothing to do with him. As a designer, he controlled the source, and the problem could not be traced back to him.
Thinking of this, Sun Liang smiled and said to Luo Qingli, "Come, Mr. Luo, follow me."
The two entered a building in the factory.
This building seems to be specially used for display, and it is filled with various kinds of home furnishings.
"Mr. Luo, our company's current products cover all the items a family needs, from sofas and beds to paper towel boxes and knife holders..."
Luo Qingli followed Sun Liang, listening to Sun Liang's introduction as they walked.
It seems that Lin Ju is just as he told her before, and he mainly advocates natural home living.
The design of Linju is really good. It can apply various natural materials to the home furnishings. The designs are colorful and innovative. After taking a look around, there are many things I want to buy.
No wonder Linju was able to expand to such a large scale in such a short period of time, it must be powerful, Luo Qingli thought secretly.
After looking around the huge three-story building, it was almost one o'clock. Sun Liang asked Luo Qingli to sit down and rest for a while, and called Ji Jinsi.
"Mr. Ji will be out soon, Mr. Luo, let's go wait for him outside first, and then we can go have dinner together."
Luo Qingli nodded. She was hungry too.
The two returned to the parking lot and waited for a while before Ji Jinsi came out.
Luo Qingli glanced at Ji Jinsi. Although there was no expression on his face, there was anger between his brows and his lips were slightly pursed. It was obvious that he was angry.
At this time, Luo Qingli didn't dare to provoke him. After getting in the car, he tried to sit close to the window, not wanting to be hurt by Ji Jinsi's low mood.
As the car drove out of the factory, Sun Liang cautiously asked, "Boss Ji, I've booked a private room at a restaurant downtown. I've ordered all the specialties from North City, and it's perfect for Boss Luo to try. What do you think?"
"Well, you arrange it."
Ji Jinsi leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes, and pressed his eyebrows with his hand.
Luo Qingli caught a glimpse of Ji Jinsi's actions out of the corner of her eye. If it were in the past, Ji Jinsi would have come to hold her hand.
But given the current relationship between the two, Ji Jinsi would not be so inappropriate.
There was a scorching sun outside the window, and some of the sunlight came in through the car window.
Although it is not as scorching as the sun in Mo City, it is still uncomfortable to be exposed to the sun.
Luo Qingli gradually forgot his original intention of getting close to the window, and in order to avoid the sun, he quietly moved inside.
"How are you guys discussing the collaboration? Have you decided on a theme?"
Ji Jinsi opened his eyes and suddenly spoke, and Luo Qingli quickly stopped moving quietly.
Sun Liang, who was standing in front, quickly replied, "Boss Luo and I have tentatively decided on two themes: bamboo and trees."
"reason?"
"Both of these are Linju's favorite raw materials, and they're also not prone to errors. I think they're more suitable for this collaboration. Mr. Ji, do you think they're okay?"
"Too ordinary."
Ji Jinsi was right, this was also what Luo Qingli was worried about.
There are too many bamboo and woody perfumes on the market. Even Mozhu has released several, so it is difficult to come up with something new.
"Mr. Luo, I want to hear your opinion." Ji Jinsi turned his head and looked at Luo Qingli and asked.
Suddenly feeling like he was being called out by the big boss, Luo Qingli had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Indeed, these two are quite common in perfumes, and it's difficult to make them distinctive. Also, people's opinions on woody scents are somewhat polarized. Those who like them love them, while those who hate them can't stand the smell of them at all. It's not very popular."
“I needed a fragrance that was unique but also in keeping with the natural tones of the forest dwelling materials.”
Luo Qingli subconsciously looked at Ji Jinsi, "Boss Ji, do you have any ideas?"
"For example, the evening primrose we watched together that night."
This sentence sounds normal, but when it comes from Ji Jinsi's mouth, it seems a bit ambiguous.
The two words "at night" and "together" together have an indescribable meaning.
Sun Liang, who was driving in front, couldn't help but look in the rearview mirror.
Luo Qingli didn't expect that Ji Jinsi still remembered the evening primrose he saw that night.
After that day, she did intend to create a perfume with a scent similar to evening primrose, but she was planning to use this perfume for the next new product launched by Mozhu.
"What are Mr. Luo's concerns?"
Ji Jinsi was indeed good at reading people's minds. Luo Qingli did not hide anything and said directly: "Originally, I wanted to use the evening primrose for the next new product of Mozhu."
As if satisfied with Luo Qingli's honesty, the anger between Ji Jinsi's brows had dissipated, and with a smile on his lips, he said, "Our cooperation this time is also a new beginning for Mozhu, isn't it?"
If you think about it this way, it makes sense. Even though it is a perfume produced in collaboration with Linju, it is still the Mozhu brand.
Thinking of this, Luo Qingli nodded and said, "Mr. Ji is right. Let's choose the theme of evening primrose."
"It's just," Luo Qingli frowned and said, "I only brought the basic raw materials this time. If I want to make the theme of evening primrose, I may have to go back to Mocheng."
She originally thought that this time she would collaborate with Lin Ju to create basic fragrances, and she never expected that they would create evening primrose. She didn't bring enough raw materials, and besides, all her perfume-making tools were in Mo City.
I didn't want to stay in North City in the first place, and I didn't want to see those people in North City. I might as well take this opportunity to go back to North City...
"Don't worry, Linju has a fragrance production department. They have all the materials you need. If they're not available, I can ask someone to purchase them. Linju will also provide you with an office and equipment."
Ji Jinsi's words completely blocked Luo Qingli's retreat.
The plan failed, Luo Qingli gritted his teeth and said, "Then I have to thank you, President Ji."
Ji Jinsi's brows were tinged with joy, "Mr. Luo, you're welcome."
As we drove back and forth, the car stopped in front of an old store.
The three of them got out of the car and Sun Liang introduced them to Luo Qingli.
"Boss Luo, this Changsheng Restaurant is a well-known old brand in North City. They serve traditional North City cuisine, which is absolutely authentic and tastes very good."
Luo Qingli smiled and nodded, then looked at the three-story old shop in front of him, and his smile froze.
Why this store?
When she was with Ji Jinsi, they didn't often eat out. The only restaurant they would go to was this "Changsheng Restaurant".
This is really bad luck. Luo Qingli sighed secretly in his heart.
What a narrow road for enemies!
Ji Jinsi stood beside Luo Qingli without knowing when.
"Mr. Luo, Changsheng's dishes are really good. You should try them more later." Ji Jinsi's magnetic voice sounded in his ears.
"Haha, what Mr. Ji said is true. I have to try it."
Sun Liang led the way and went inside. Before the waiter could greet them, a woman with a good figure came up to greet them.
"Brother, you're here. Hello, Mr. Ji!"
Luo Qingli took a look and saw that it was the woman who had taken the elevator with him in the morning.
It turns out that she is Sun Liang’s sister. I never knew that Sun Liang has such a beautiful sister.
Luo Qingli looked at Sun Xi calmly, and saw that her eyes were shining - staring at Ji Jinsi.
Luo Qingli immediately understood. She was familiar with this kind of look. She had looked at Ji Jinsi with this look before.
"Mr. Ji, this is my sister. She is here to help us order food."
"Mr. Ji, I work at the front desk of Linju. I wonder if you have any impression of me?" Sun Xi looked at Ji Jinsi with bright eyes and full of expectation.
