Chapter 498: Please Respect Yourself
Lin Yilan woke up at dawn, washed up, and sat on the sofa waiting for Gao Long and Gao Hu to arrive.
They had agreed yesterday to go look at a new store together today. After the previous milk tea shop burned down, she had thought about renovating it and continuing to operate it, but after calculating the cost of redecorating it, it was obviously more cost-effective to find a new store.
She and Gao Long and Gao Hu agreed to meet at ten o'clock. When the clock pointed to nine fifty, there was a knock on the door.
They were still on time as always.
When the door opened, Lin Yilan was wearing a lavender dress, with light makeup on her face, a rosy complexion, and in great shape.
"Idol-san, why are you acting so strangely today? I never see you wearing a skirt normally."
There was a hint of surprise in Gao Long's eyes. Although in his heart Lin Yilan was more like a brother, people are visual animals after all. At some point, he couldn't help but be moved by Lin Yilan.
"What do you know?" Lin Yilan closed the door and said as she walked away, "When you talk business, you must first build up your momentum. That way you can get twice the result with half the effort."
"I've learned a lesson again today," Gao Hu said jokingly. Lin Yilan kicked him and said, "Just go your own way. You're the only one who keeps talking nonsense."
It’s about an hour’s drive, and after getting off the bus you still have to walk some distance on your own.
Lin Yilan doesn't usually wear high heels, and she stumbled a lot when walking in them. Gao Long and Gao Hu supported her together, and she looked a little embarrassed.
"Sister, you are already so tall, why are you so careless about wearing something?"
Gao Hu was not complaining, but was a little confused. In his opinion, Lin Yilan's entire body just standing there represented excellence, and she didn't need these things to boost her aura.
Lin Yilan did not explain, but just thought of the male protagonist, and inexplicably wanted to be more ladylike, more intellectual, and become a better person to give the male protagonist a surprise.
As they were walking towards the agreed location, they suddenly heard a delicate, frightened voice, "Robbery, everyone, help me stop the thief."
This is a busy commercial street. A woman was seen chasing a man, asking for help from people nearby. However, no one wanted to get into trouble, so no one took action.
Seeing this, Lin Yilan took off her high heels and smashed it on the man's head. The man was hit and turned around to look at Lin Yilan viciously.
While he was distracted, Lin Yilan ran up barefoot and knocked him down from behind. The man still wanted to escape, but Lin Yilan subdued him with three punches and two kicks, and pressed on him, finally making the man unable to move.
Gao Long and Gao Hu pushed the man aside and called the police.
The woman also caught up, panting, and took the stolen bag from Lin Yilan. She kept thanking Lin Yilan, "Luckily, you guys are here, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get my bag back. I bought this bag yesterday. This little thief has such a sharp eye."
The woman didn't seem to be satisfied after saying this and kicked the subdued man a few times.
"Don't let me catch you, you nosy bitch."
The police arrived quickly. Before getting into the car, the man spoke viciously to Lin Yilan, but Lin Yilan did not take his threat seriously.
"Let me treat you to dinner. Thank you so much for today." The woman made the invitation, but Lin Yilan didn't agree because she had to go see the new store.
"Then let's exchange contact information. My name is Lin Sen, what's yours?"
Don't hit a smiling person. Lin Yilan did not refuse this request. After exchanging contact information, Lin Yilan left with Gao Long and Gao Hu.
After Lin Yilan left, two men quickly came to the woman's side and said with some remorse, "Miss, I'm sorry, we are late."
When Lin Yilan arrived at the reception hall and had almost finished chatting with the contact person, there was suddenly a commotion.
"What day is it today? President Lin actually came to the company!"
Surprised voices came from the company's internal staff nearby. Lin Yilan followed their gaze and saw the woman who had just been robbed.
Lin Sen happened to look over and met Lin Yilan's eyes. He was a little surprised and walked over.
"Ms. Lin, why are you here?"
Lin Yilan said frankly, "I came here to rent a store. Are you——"
Fate is so wonderful. Lin Sen was even happier when he saw it. "This is really fate. Whichever one you like, I will take you to see the store later, and then we can have dinner together."
Lin Yilan didn’t know how to describe her current mood. She felt like the person she had helped inadvertently turned out to be a big shot.
She had learned a lot about this company before renting a store here. It was rumored that the Lin family had been involved in politics for generations, and Lin Sen was extremely intelligent since he was a child. After graduating from university at the age of fifteen or sixteen, he set his sights on the real estate industry. Later, he became a real estate tycoon with his keen vision and strong management skills.
He is really a person who dares not be underestimated.
Having said this, Lin Yilan had no reason to refuse and followed Lin Sen directly to the store address.
The other employees watched as their President Lin stepped into the company for a moment and then left.
The rented store is in a busy area. Lin Yilan has no plans to join other milk tea shops. She plans to develop her own milk tea flavors and create her own brand.
The decoration inside the store is very good. The overall color scheme is green and white, and it is decorated with many exquisite small green plants, making it look high-end and fashionable.
"This environment is really nice, and in this location, I have a feeling business will be good in the future."
Gao Hu took a look and was somewhat happy. No matter what, if they could finalize the contract this time, they would have to make fewer trips in the future.
"It's not that easy. Whether business is successful or not depends on the quality of the product. The environment and other things are secondary."
Lin Yilan is still very clear about this, but she is also very confident in her own formula.
During this time, Huo Juncheng asked Gao Long about the progress of Lin Yilan's store rental. He heard that it was going well, but after thinking about it, he was still a little worried, so he drove over to take a look in person.
Lin Yilan didn't expect the male protagonist to come over. She was a little surprised, but at the same time she felt a little sweet at being valued.
"I'd like to ask Ms. Lin, what is the approximate cost of daily maintenance of green plants?"
The green plants here are decorated in circular lines at high altitudes, and it must take a lot of effort to maintain them.
As soon as Huo Juncheng arrived, he saw something that Lin Yilan and the others had not noticed. The good environment meant that daily maintenance would also cost a lot of money.
When Lin Sen saw Huo Juncheng, he felt as if a bullet had been fired into his heart. His heart was beating non-stop, and he rarely felt shy.
"Don't worry about that, we will maintain it here."
Lin Sen said as he approached the male protagonist. With a hint of urgency, he stretched out his foot to hook the male protagonist's calf, and said with a charming smile, "I personally admire Mr. Huo very much. I wonder if I have the honor to further interact with Mr. Huo?"
Huo Juncheng stood up and frowned: "Ms. Lin Sen, I already have a fiancée, please respect yourself."
