After listening to the Great Compassion Mantra for ten minutes, Luo Shimiao finally calmed down, but she dared not go out to see Gu Nian, fearing that her autumn dryness would flare up again if she saw him.
After calming down, I thought about opening a studio, so I sat down at my desk and called Luo Min.
Luo Shimiao: "Hey, is it convenient for you to talk now, Sister Min?"
Luo Min: "It's convenient, go ahead."
"Aren't you planning to go solo? Where do you think would be a good place to open an office?"
Luo Min thought for a moment and said, "Fengcheng Film and Television Cultural Industrial Park is good. Many artists have registered studios there."
"Wait a minute." Luo Shimiao turned on speakerphone, opened the map and searched for Fengcheng Film and Television, which Luo Min mentioned. When she saw that it was in another area, she replied, "It's too far. It takes more than an hour to get home."
"Sister Min, what do you think of the area near Huayin Financial Center?"
Luo Min: "The 'heart' of Kyoto is certainly good, but do you know how expensive the rent is there?"
If it were before, Luo Shimiao definitely wouldn't have chosen that place, but now that her vault is back, things are different.
Luo Shimiao: "You don't need to worry about the rent, just leave it to me. The most important thing now is to find out if there are any vacant offices available for rent around here. We need to ask around."
Luo Min assumed she wanted to ask Gu Nian for help, so she didn't ask any further questions. As Luo Shimiao's agent, she knew exactly how much Luo Shimiao earned—penny poor, unable to afford an office there.
This is not Luo Min's fault, because Luo Shimiao had never told her about his family background.
Before appearing on "First Experience of Cohabitation," Luo Min always thought her family was a middle-class family. It wasn't until she saw Luo Min swiping her mother's card that she realized her family was better off than she had imagined, but she never thought of them as wealthy families.
Although she looks like someone from a wealthy family, some of her behaviors are not at all like those of someone from a wealthy family.
The two talked for a long time. When Luo Shimiao made the call, it was a little past 2:00, but after he hung up, it was already past 3:00.
Luo Shimiao wanted to write down the results of their discussion and make a plan, but there was no computer or tablet in the room, and the phone was too small to operate.
Looking towards the door, Gu Nian's office probably has more than one computer.
Luo Shimiao put down her phone, walked to the door, and opened it: "Gu..."
"Mr. Gu, the company's performance this quarter..."
Both sounds seemed to be paused simultaneously, as if a pause button had been pressed.
Gu Nian listened to his subordinates' work reports with a cold expression.
Two men in their thirties stood respectfully in front of his desk.
When Qin Jiazhi and Luo Yang saw a woman suddenly walk out of the boss's lounge, and a very beautiful one at that, they suppressed the turmoil surging in their hearts and tried their best to control their expressions, making sure they didn't lose their composure in front of their boss.
The beautiful woman looked vaguely familiar; a thought flashed through their minds.
Isn't this the woman who briefly appeared in the video conference last time? Back then, Chen Jiawen even led the way in calling her "boss's wife."
Qin Jiazhi and Luo Yang exchanged a glance, then turned to Luo Shimiao in unison, bowed slightly, and said, "Greetings, Madam!"
The sound was as loud as a bell, and it even echoed!
Startled by their address of "Madam," Luo Shimiao took a half-step back, forcing an awkward smile that was almost splitting her face: "Hello... I am surnamed Luo, not 'Madam.' My full name is Luo Shimiao. You can call me Xiao Luo or Shimiao."
Seeing his wife's adorable reaction, Gu Nian's eyes almost overflowed with laughter.
"Yes, madam."
Seeing their boss's "rejuvenated" appearance, the two dared not call out to him carelessly.
Luo Shimiao: "............" It's as if she said nothing at all.
Gu Nian: "What's wrong?"
!!
Qin Jiazhi secretly picked at his ear. Had he really heard correctly? Did the boss really say that?
Ah, those soft, gentle words!
Ah! This loving tone of voice makes even a man like me feel weak in the knees.
Luo Yang nudged his colleague with his elbow, reminding him to mind his manners. "President Gu isn't asking you anything, so who are you trying to impress with your affected manners?"
Qin Jiazhi snapped out of his daze and quickly straightened his legs, which were twisted inwards.
"Um... I'd like to borrow a computer, a tablet is fine too," Luo Shimiao said to the man.
Gu Nian put an unused laptop aside and gave it to her.
Luo Shimiao ran over, grabbed it, and ran off.
"Continue." Gu Nian glanced at his subordinate who was exchanging flirtatious glances.
Luo Yang: "Okay."
Luo Yang continued his work report.
Luo Shimiao returned to her room, turned on her computer, and stared at the screen: "I forgot to ask for the password. What is the password?"
"Ding-dong."
My eyes went to the phone screen, which displayed a message: "The password is your birthday."
Luo Shimiao made a heart shape with her hands towards the door: "I love you, my darling."
She entered her birthday, pressed enter, and instantly went to the desktop. Luo Shimiao began fiddling with her schedule.
The clock on the wall keeps turning.
In the end, Luo Shimiao even produced interior design drawings for the studio.
After finishing, I logged onto WeChat, posted the message to my alternate account, closed my laptop, and stood up to stretch.
Luo Shimiao opened the door, peeked out, saw that Gu Nian was alone, and went outside.
She walked behind the man, placed her fingers on his temples, and gently massaged them.
Luo Shimiao massaged for a while and then asked, "How is it? Does it feel good?"
"Comfortable." Gu Nian closed the project plan and pulled Luo Shimiao into his arms.
Luo Shimiao sat down on the man's lap: "Gu Nian, I want to open a studio and I'd like to find an office nearby, preferably a whole floor, so I can visit you when I go to the studio. Do you know any real estate agents?"
"I'll clear out the 34th floor for you, it'll be closer that way," Gu Nian said, resting his head on her shoulder.
"That won't do. This is your company's headquarters. You can't do whatever you want here."
Gu Nian: "Then I'll have Jiawen help you find it."
"Okay." Luo Shimiao turned around, pouting slightly, wanting to kiss Gu Nian.
"Knock knock knock"
Luo Shimiao immediately pursed her lips, stood up and wanted to go back to her room, but was pressed down by the man behind her, who wouldn't let her leave.
Gu Nian: "Go in."
The door was ajar, not closed. In such a large office, if the door were closed, one would have to shout for the person outside to hear.
Chen Jiawen walked in holding the invitation: "b..." He paused for a second when he saw Luo Shimiao, then continued, "Boss, there's a business banquet at 8 pm tonight. Should we cancel it? The invitation has already been delivered."
Gu Nian didn't answer him, but looked at the exquisite person in his arms: "Do you want to go?"
"Is it fun? Is there anything good to eat?" Luo Shimiao asked Chen Jiawen.
If Chen Jiawen hadn't seen the genuine joking in her eyes, she would have truly thought she was joking.
At these high-end banquets, the bigwigs use the opportunity to discuss cooperation or recruit talent; none of them actually go to eat.
"Whether it's fun or not depends on the individual, but there will definitely be plenty of delicious food," Chen Jiawen replied.
Luo Shimiao: "Then let's go, eat our fill and then go home." She put her arms around the man's neck, smiling brightly: "I saved money on a meal, aren't I good at managing money?"
