Chapter Fifty-Eight: A Misleading Posture
Lin Xiran received a call from Chairman Ling, then put down the information in his hand and walked into the elevator, two minutes later, the elevator stopped on the top floor, Lin Xiran followed Secretary Wang and walked into the office with a respectful face.
"I heard that you recently lived with Ling Hao's child, how did you finally figure it out?"
Never thought that Chairman Ling would ask about the current situation of her and Ling Hao so bluntly, Lin Xiran looked down at Chairman Ling sitting at the front of the tea case in embarrassment, and said without hesitation: "We just want to try to have more contact, after all, we will be together in the future." β
"Who meant, yours or him?"
Chairman Ling still lowered his head and poured the tea pet, and he couldn't see any expression on his flat face, but the meaning of the words was enough for Lin Xiran to digest for a long time.
After realizing Lin Xiran's embarrassment, Chairman Ling spoke again: "Xiran, don't misunderstand, come and sit here." β
After beckoning Lin Xiran to sit down, he poured seven points for her and smiled lovingly: "My friend just sent me a taste, Xiran In fact, I have been treating you as my own daughter all these years, and the reason why I asked just now is just to say, you are still too young, and this matter of marriage must follow your heart, not gratitude." β
"Uncle Ling, we have thought it through."
Lin Xiran hurriedly put down the tea bowl in her hand and said, at this moment, she didn't want Chairman Ling to have any misunderstanding between her and Ling Hao, and she didn't want to break the previous harmony because of the current relationship.
After all, it was the father and son of the Ling family who gave her a warm home and gave her the care that her family should have over the years, and it was precisely because she needed these that she was so eager to get closer to Ling Hao and want to enter the role earlier.
She doesn't want to break her current life because of the appearance of old people and old things, but she may not realize that this eagerness and anxiety in her heart is affecting her sanity.
"Xiran, this tea drinking and doing things need to be fast and slow, it is easy to burn, and it is easy to lose the fragrance of tea if it is slow."
Lin Xiran noticed that the tea in the cup just now was already cold, losing its original aroma and charm, and saw Chairman Ling take the clip and pour the tea in the tea bowl again.
Nodding at her and motioning her to drink, the entrance is mellow and fragrant, the mouth is jerky, and the aftertaste is very delicious, Lin Xiran tried to close his eyes and taste as if he was in a tender green tea garden, leisurely.
"How about this tea, let's take some back to drink later."
"No, Uncle Ling's tea can only be tasted before you drink it here, and I really can't brew it when I take it back."
Lin Xiran shook her head and said, she was very grateful for Chairman Ling's kindness, but every time something came to her and Linda's hands, it immediately turned sour, so it was better not to be cruel to the heavens anymore.
"You're all too young, by the way, what's going on with Xiran's ink staining Fanghua's case?"
Suddenly mentioned the case of Mo Dye Fanghua, Lin Xiran clasped her hands in embarrassment, and after that day, she handed over the contract to Linda, but she didn't want Xu Mo to find fault with it, seeing that the contract was changed back and forth, and there was still no progress for half a month.
And she never took it over, but said to Linda that she would change it according to the other party's intention until she was satisfied, and now she heard Chairman Ling suddenly ask, I was afraid that he would ask if he had already heard something.
"The other party to the contract is still not satisfied, I have handed over this matter to Linda, Uncle Ling, you won't blame me for delaying for so long, I really don't want to..."
"Drink tea."
Lin Xiran thought that since Uncle Ling already knew about Xu Mo's difficulties with Linda, he simply said that he didn't want to take over the case, but he didn't want to be interrupted by Uncle Ling's tea, so he quietly picked up the teacup and drank the tea in the cup.
"How does it taste?"
looked at Lin Xiran twisting his eyebrows, as if he was reminiscing about something, but it was too late to regret his mistakes.
Chairman Ling asked her with a smile, and then said with a smile: "You are too young to listen to it, just now you drank tea with your heart and you dealt with this matter with your heart, Xiran I have always regarded you as a daughter, I only hope that you will not be anxious about life issues." β
In the office, Linda revised the contract over and over again according to Xu Mo's request, but in addition to giving opinions by email, Xu Mo completely refused all interviews with Linda, and did not even give him the opportunity to discuss the details of the contract.
Annoyed, she crawled in front of her desk and looked at the door of the director's office in a daze, in the past, there was always Director Lin's idea on the side, she just implemented it, but now Director Lin has completely handed over this case to her.
In the face of the other party's rude pickiness, she really didn't know how to deal with it, and she couldn't get the contract that had been changed for so long, so she was ashamed of Director Lin, and it was not good to disturb her to discuss.
What to do, what to do?
"Linda, how is the case of Ink Dye Fanghua, come to the office with me."
Lin Xiran walked out of the elevator and patted Linda on the shoulder and said, casually pushed open the office door and beckoned her to sit down, and said apologetically: "I've wronged you recently, but don't take it to heart, he made it difficult for me." β
"Director Lin, don't say that, it's Linda's lack of skill."
Seeing Linda huddled on the sofa full of guilt, Lin Xiran smiled and said, "Okay, don't always look like I'm bullying you, I'll explain the details later, and ask him to meet in the afternoon." β
Linda raised her head and looked at Lin Xiran in surprise, is the director going to prepare to go out in person?
But thinking back to the events of that day, presumably Mo Dye Fanghua will not treat the director well, should he discuss this matter with Mr. Ling, what if Director Lin has any more accidents?
"Okay, you don't have to be so surprised, I'll tell Ling Hao about going out in the afternoon later, you better put caution on the contract."
Lin Xiran flipped through the information and rearranged the to-do list for the afternoon, looked at Linda's cuteness with a chuckle and said, sometimes she really wondered how much luck she had saved to meet Linda, a living treasure, and she was still cute and cute if she put everything first.
The location of the interview was quickly decided, and it was still the VIP lounge upstairs of the Emgrand Hotel Lin Xiran was a little skeptical that Xu Mo had been staying in the Emgrand Hotel all along, but it was only a flash.
After all, Principal Ke still has a lot of properties here, and they are already engaged, presumably Ke Yunrou will not agree to stay in the hotel all the time, shaking his head and dispersing these thoughts that should not be there, it is better to decide that the contract should not intersect again.
Although Chairman Ling repeatedly emphasized that she should not bring the emotions of life into her work, she still avoided Xu Mo.
This time, he was forced to cooperate under the pressure of the directors, and after everything went into normal, Lin Xiran decided to push the matter to other departments in the name of being unfamiliar with the business.
At the Dorsett Hotel, Lin Xiran took Linda to check the contract in advance and checked the contract repeatedly, only waiting for the other party to sign and leave.
Time passed minute by minute, but the other party was not seen for a long time, and Linda muttered in a worried whisper: "Director, will there be a temporary cancellation of Ink Dye Fanghua?" β
I saw Lin Xiran slamming the folder on the table with a "snap", and said sarcastically to the camera in the corner of the curtain: "Come out, Xu Mo!" β
Linda then understood why Director Lin always appeared in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows frequently in the name of looking at the river view just now, it turned out that the director had already discovered it, but she couldn't figure out what it meant to dye Fanghua with ink?
The lounge members were pushed out of the way, and Xu Mo, dressed in a silver-gray suit, approached Linda and said, "You go out first, we need to talk alone." β
Lin Xiran glared at Xu Mo, who was eventful in front of him, patted Linda's hand soothingly and said, "Go out, I'm fine." β
He is one of the few difficult partners she has encountered, and he is the only one she doesn't want to talk about in detail, but due to the pressure of the board of directors and the fact that Haochen Film and Television, which doesn't want to drag Ling Hao down, has no choice but to see the move.
Watching Linda's departure, Xu Mo did not sit on the opposite side to look at the long-prepared contract, but casually leaned on the armrest of Lin Xiran's sofa and stared at her condescendingly, as if the light in his eyes was about to burn her.
After a few minutes, he lightly opened his thin lips and said, "I heard that you are living with him, what are you worried about so anxious?" β
His eyes scrutinized the slight changes in her body, as if to see through her clothes, and finally his gaze rested on her pink lips.
Under the light, it looked particularly seductive and intriguing, but when she thought of giving it to another man that she didn't cherish there, Xu Mo's fingertips were white and wanted to strangle her.
"I think we'd better talk about the film and television rights of the novel Parallel Line, Mr. Modye Fanghua."
Lin Xiran turned his face away and ignored his gaze, ignoring his question, his gaze swept over the contract on the table, and calmly reminded.
"Don't you really understand these four words, Lin Xiran, you are so cold-blooded!"
Xu Mo's eyes were stained with a touch of injury, and after staring at Lin Xiran with burning eyes, he squeezed her shoulders with both hands and said.
He thought that she would feel something about his appearance, but the news she didn't want to get was that she actually moved in with that person, hasn't she always been very reserved, what about her reserve?
"Of course, aren't these four words your pen name, sir, here is the contract, as long as you sign it, the generous conditions on it are enough for you to take your fiancΓ©e to Europe for a trip, of course, I will continue to apply for the follow-up income."
The indifferent and calm attitude made Lin Xiran carry the words prepared before coming like a robot, and she didn't want to look at him from beginning to end, and she didn't want to read the expression on his face at the moment.
Alienated from staring at the contract on the table, as if the person in front of him was a complete stranger, and of course a stranger who was extremely annoying.
"Okay, Director Lin is really understanding, but in return, I also have a surprise feedback!"
Lin Xiran's attitude completely ignited the jealousy in Xu Mo's heart, pinched her chin and pushed it towards the table in front of her, leaning over to press her, and said with a playful look in his eyes: "What would he think if he looked at our current posture?" β
Seeing the body that was pouring towards her, Lin Xi panicked and supported him with both hands, and said with a panicked face: "Xu Mo, get up, calm down, are you worthy of Ke Yunrou by doing this!" β
