The ex-wife is rebellious, which makes the CEO feel troubled

"The southern suburbs are very popular recently, and even the prices in the surrounding business districts have risen. I heard that the use rights of those businesses are in the hands of your group?"

Liu Yin thought he was here to discuss cooperation, but she didn't expect Gu Huaijing to ask about Nanjiao right away.

She didn't hide it and said directly: "It's in my hand."

Gu Huaijing said: "Let's be frank. I am very interested in these merchants. Ms. Liu, just name a price."

Seeing how straightforward he was, Liu Yin was slightly stunned and then couldn't help but smile.

"Mr. Gu is a generous man, but we are not selling these merchants. I am sorry to disappoint you."

Recently, many people have been coveting the businesses she owns.

Some wanted to buy it, and some wanted to cooperate and share profits, but Gu Huaijing was the first one to offer such attractive conditions.

But Liu Yin declined them all.

She was widowed at a young age and supported the Liu family alone, relying on her perseverance and long-term strategic vision.

The Liu family has no shortage of money. Once the southern suburbs are planned well and these businesses develop, the reputation and long-term benefits they bring will enable the Liu family to move to a higher level.

As a company manager, Gu Huaijing naturally understood this kind of thinking.

He pondered for a moment and said, "I remember that in March, your company's nested mold won the third place in the Red Dot Design Competition. I think it was all thanks to Ms. Liu."

The Red Dot Design Competition is a global competition. If you win first place, you will have the opportunity to cooperate with Celtic, the largest mold manufacturer in the world. For that competition, she personally worked overtime, but ultimately missed the championship.

Most people who participate in the competition go there for the opportunity for cooperation.

Gu Huaijing keenly caught the regretful look on her face and said, "In my opinion, it is not too much for Ms. Liu's work to take first place. If you are interested in meeting with the representative of Celtic Company, I can help you contact them."

A hint of joy flashed across Liu Yin's eyes: "Really?"

Celtic Company is not an easy bridge.

Gu Huaijing nodded solemnly: "Of course."

At this moment, Liu Yin's heart was greatly shaken.

Gu Huaijing's words carry great weight in the industry. If this thing can really succeed, the benefits it will bring will be more significant than those brought by merchants.

After all, Liu's company is famous for making molds, and she hasn't figured out what the merchants should do with them.

After a brief consideration, Liu Yin said, "If Mr. Gu is really willing to help, I can sell the business. However, I can't sell all of it to you. I hope you understand."

That's true. Gu Huaijing pondered for a moment and asked, "How many merchant usage rights do you have?"

"Fourteen." Liu Yin said, "To show my sincerity, I am willing to sell eight to Mr. Gu."

This was already a huge concession, but Gu Huaijing shook his head and said, "Seven is enough."

At Gu Huaijing's suggestion, Li Mingyou took out the contract that had been prepared long ago. After Liu Yin read it carefully, she found no loopholes and signed her name readily.

She took the lead in extending her hand and said to Gu Huaijing, "Mr. Gu, it's a pleasure to work with you."

"Pleasant to work with."

A faint smile appeared on Gu Huaijing's lips.

Now, all the gifts for Ning Xi are complete.

……

The next day, He Zhao got up early, booked a restaurant, bought gifts, and happily arrived at the place where he had agreed to meet Liu Yin.

He specially picked out a limited edition bag and ordered all her favorite dishes. Liu Yin was so pleased with him that she couldn't stop smiling.

"Boy, you must have something to ask of me today, right?"

He Zhao smiled and said, "You can't hide anything from your cousin. I really have something I want to ask you for help with."

Liu Yin smiled knowingly: "You are the only one who has many clever ideas. Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Isn't the business in the southern suburbs very popular recently? I want to buy half from my cousin..."

"Why are you interested in the merchants there?" Liu Yin asked in surprise.

He Zhao hadn't realized the seriousness of the matter yet, and said with a smile: "I want to make the best use of it. Cousin, why don't you sell it to those unreliable outsiders? Sell it to me."

"It's not that I won't give it to you, it's that I've already sold half of it."

"So fast? Who did you sell it to?" He Zhao was also surprised. "Weren't you reluctant to sell it before?"

"I sold it to Gu Group. Gu Huaijing said he could help me get in touch with Celtic Company, so I sold it to him. The price was very good." Liu Yin paused, "You are just late. If you had come a day earlier, it would have been fine."

"Gu Huaijing?" He Zhao suddenly raised his voice a little.

I thought I would be the first to see the moon because I was close to the water, but who knew that Gu Huaijing got there first!

Ning Xi heard good news in the embroidery workshop.

Rong Qingyun's new men's clothing had a sample garment. Ning Xi took it in her hand and saw how perfect it was.

"The sample dress alone is so beautiful. I can't even imagine what it would look like if all the patterns were embroidered..." Ning Xi exclaimed sincerely.

"There are actually some areas where this dress can be modified," Rong Qingyun said.

"where?"

As he was talking, the door was gently pushed open. Rong Qingyun turned around and said with a smile, "Well, wait until he puts it on and you'll know."

The person who came was Gu Huaijing.

"Teacher Rong." Gu Huaijing greeted.

"Come here and try on this dress."

Five minutes later, Gu Huaijing walked out of the fitting room.

Everything is just right.

All the apprentices in the embroidery workshop were stunned. Zhang Xiaoxiao even said directly: "So handsome..."

Rong Qingyun was amused by her straightforwardness and glanced over: "Look at you, you're such a fangirl! You only look at people and don't pay attention to their clothes, right?"

Zhang Xiaoxiao shook her head: "No, no, it's just that the person and the clothes complement each other!"

What she said was indeed right. Even though Ning Xi had seen Gu Huaijing in various forms before, she couldn't help but be stunned.

She had never thought that Gu Huaijing could blend so well with this new traditional Chinese style, and his brilliance was not obscured by the clothes, but instead had his own unique flavor.

"Huai Jing, how do you feel about wearing this dress?"

Gu Huaijing spoke frankly about his feelings: "Everything is fine, but... can the waistband be a little higher?"

Rong Qingyun was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud.

Gu Huaijing looked over with some confusion, not understanding why. Logically speaking, with Rong Qingyun's experience, he would not make such a low-level mistake.

Rong Qingyun looked at Ning Xi: "Xiao Xi, please explain to him why the waistband doesn't fit properly."

"The sizes are calculated based on the average of survey data, and we try to cater to the needs of the general public." Ning Xi paused, "You feel that it doesn't fit you... because your legs are too long."

This simple sentence made Gu Huaijing feel inexplicably better.

Does this count as an admission that he has particularly good body proportions?

Ning Xi looked at the faint smile that flashed across his eyes and her eyebrows twitched involuntarily.
