Ghost World Office

After a full meal, Tao Ye and Mai Xiaobo slumped on the chairs like chicks being fed by a mother hen.

"Do you want to go to the Internet cafe?"

All year round, Mai Xiaobo's mind was only about eating, drinking and having fun. After he was full, he naturally thought about playing games.

Tao Ye leaned on the back of the chair, his bones seemed to have been pulled away, and he lazily refused:

"No, I still have something to do in the afternoon."

"What's so important? I'll give Zhang Minghe and Cheng Qiangjun a while..." Mai Xiaobo subconsciously wanted to ask Cheng Qiangjun and the others to go to the Internet cafe to play games.But in the middle of the speech, he suddenly realized that Cheng Qiangjun was no longer there, so the words in his mouth suddenly stuck on his lips.

After Cheng Qiangjun's death, he entered the human world to handle this matter, but Mai Xiaobo didn't know about it.

Taking a complicated look at Mai Xiaobo, Tao Ye took a piece of dental floss from the table and began to pick his teeth:

"It's okay, I'll play again when I have time."

Suddenly thinking about Cheng Qiangjun, Mai Xiaobo's mood instantly became lost.He squinted at the leftovers on the dining table, his nose involuntarily sore.

Seeing Mai Xiaobo like this, Tao Ye was a little at a loss.He raised his hand and scraped his forehead with his index finger, but he couldn't say any words of comfort when they came to his lips.

After more than ten seconds, Tao Ye opened his mouth and said:

"Stop pretending to be affectionate there, Cheng Qiangjun and the others should have a pretty good life over there."

The melancholy mood was interrupted by Tao Ye's "love kind", and Mai Xiaobo sullenly reminded Tao Ye:

"The word love is not used in this way, bro."

After glancing at Mai Xiaobo, Tao Ye got up from the chair, walked slowly towards the door, and said loudly to Chen Xiang who was watering the flowers on the balcony:

"Auntie, I'm leaving first!"

After speaking, Tao Ye slipped out of Mai Xiaobo's house.

Leaving Chengkong Square, Tao Ye went straight to the noodle restaurant in Yanshi Lane. He found Shen Zhu immediately and shared the clues he got from Mai Xiaobo with Shen Zhu.

Of course, Tao Ye did not mention the silver azalea to Shen Zhu.Although in Tao Ye's eyes, the suspicion that Shen Zhu was an insider was no longer that great, but he still had some precautions against Shen Zhu.

In the Human World Office of City S today, there are only four brothers and sisters, Tao Ye, Shen Zhu, and Cheng Qiangjun.Tao Ye has unconditional trust in Cheng Qiangjun's brother and sister, but regarding Shen Zhu, Tao Ye's heart knot has not been completely untied because of the incident of the laser shot in the hospital last time.

After learning these clues, Shen Zhu immediately summoned Cheng Qiangjun's brother and sister, and the four of them had a brief meeting.

At the meeting, all four felt that MIZU was very suspicious, so they decided to go to the office building where MIZU was located to find out.

It is definitely inappropriate to go there hastily. If MIZU is really related to the disappearance of the live broadcast, then if there is a slight mistake, it will be alarmed.

After the four discussed, they unanimously decided to send Tao Ye there.

……

In the afternoon, Tao Ye arrived at MIZU's office building in Shen Zhu's car.

Shen Zhu parked the car in a far away parking lot, took out a walkie-talkie from her pocket, and handed it to Tao Ye:

"Contact us if you have any situation, we will be near MIZU's office building in a while."

Glancing at the miniature walkie-talkie in Shen Zhu's hand, Tao Ye didn't reach out to answer it: "It's okay, no need."

This is the nature of the work of the human office. If it is really dangerous, even if it is equipped with a thousand walkie-talkies, it will not help.Tao Ye felt that this time it was just to explore the reality of MIZU, and the walkie-talkie was of little use.

Shen Zhu turned her head and glanced at Cheng Qiangjun who was sitting in the back seat, and then at Tao Ye who was sitting in the co-pilot. After a moment of silence, she compromised and said:

"Well, you pay attention to safety."

Tao Ye nodded, tightened the collar of the windbreaker, took the information package prepared in advance, opened the door and got out of the car.

Braving the slightly chilly early spring breeze, Tao Ye walked quickly to the downstairs of the MIZU office building.

After entering the hall on the first floor, the security guard stopped Tao Ye and asked him why he came.

Looking into the security guard's eyes, Tao Ye smiled sincerely and said, "Hi, I'm from the Liaoyuan Group."

Liaoyuan Group is owned by Shen Zhu's father, Shen Liao. The group is not only involved in the real estate industry, but has also entered the fashion industry in recent years.

In order to ensure the success of this plan and to deceive others, Shen Zhu asked someone to arrange a cooperation project, and asked MIZU to be the cooperative brand of the newly opened mall of Liaoyuan Group.

So Tao Ye naturally became the person in charge of this project and came to MIZU to discuss related matters.

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll check the appointment record." The security guard looked down at the appointment system and found that Tao Ye had indeed made an appointment for today's meeting, so he put Tao Ye into the building.

Before leaving, Tao Ye asked the security guard with a smile: "Which floor is your marketing department on?"

"On the third floor, you can go up from that elevator." The security guard pointed to the elevator on the west side of the hall, and said to Tao Ye.

"Thank you." Tao Ye smiled at the security guard and walked towards the elevator.

After taking the elevator up to the third floor, Tao Ye found the office area of ​​the marketing department. After explaining his purpose to the front desk of the marketing department, the front desk took Tao Ye to a reception room and asked him to wait for the staff who came to talk to him.

Sitting on the sofa in the reception room, Tao Ye looked at the furnishings in the room——

This reception room is very different from ordinary company reception rooms. The furniture and decoration in the room are very tasteful. Most of them are bright and bright colors, which are completely different from MIZU's usual cold style.

Tao Ye was thinking wildly when a man in a black oversize jumpsuit came in from the door.

"Hi, I'm Li Li."

The man named Li Li has shoulder-length hair, deep facial features, and a bright but non-aggressive neutral beauty between his brows.

Tao Ye stood up, shook hands with Li Li, and sat back on the sofa.

And Li Li sat opposite Tao Ye, said with a smile: "I am the designer of MIZU, nice to meet you."

Calmly looking at Li Li, Tao Ye sighed inwardly. Sure enough, beautiful people are beautiful in their own way, and ugly people can only be ugly in one way.

"Tao Ye." Nodding to the other party, Tao Ye reported his name.

Without too much official courtesy, the two discussed the cooperation plan.

In terms of business, Tao Ye is a real layman.Thanks to Shen Zhu's series of crash training before coming here, coupled with Tao Ye's personal adaptability, he was barely able to finish talking with Li Li.

After finalizing most of the cooperation matters, looking into Tao Ye's eyes, Li Li warmly invited:

"Mr. Tao, would you like to visit my studio?"

"How nice..." Tao Ye was about to politely refuse, but remembered the purpose of this trip, so he immediately changed his words, "But if you don't mind, I am also very happy."

Li Li smiled and said, "Just call me Xiaoli, that's what my colleagues call me." After finishing speaking, he stood up and motioned Tao Ye to follow, and they went to the studio together.

Tao Ye got up from the sofa. He always felt that Li Li was a bit too familiar and suspicious, but he still followed Li Li, left the reception room, and came to the studio at the end of the corridor on the third floor.

Li Li's studio is very messy, with fabrics, patterns, and tools scattered all over the place, and mannequins for pattern-making are piled crookedly in the corner.

Looking at the needles and threads scattered on the table, Tao Ye couldn't help sighing:

Such a chaotic studio dares to bring people to visit. Does this Mr. Li have the social arrogance that is said on the Internet?

While thinking wildly, Li Li turned into the inner room of the studio, took out a black suit with a dustproof non-woven bag from it, and said to Tao Ye:

"I think you are very suitable for this dress, so I lured you to the studio and wanted to give it to you."

When Li Li was talking, his hair was randomly scattered in front of his forehead, and his thick eyelashes covered half of his pupils, casting a soft shadow under his eyes.

Looking at the suit in Li Li's hands, Tao Ye subconsciously wanted to refuse, but he finally held back and smiled politely:

"How embarrassing that is."

Li Li bent his eyes, took off the dustproof cloth bag on the suit, lifted the hook of the hanger, looked at Tao Ye with a smile, and said:

"As long as you don't mind, can you try it on?"

When the designer spoke, his eyes were full of enthusiasm for work and art, which made it difficult for Tao Ye to refuse, and finally nodded reluctantly.

After receiving Tao Ye's affirmative answer, Li Li led Tao Ye into the compartment inside the studio, closed the dark blue velvet curtain of the compartment, and said to Tao Ye, "You can try on clothes here and match them I have put away my shoes and shoes."

After finishing speaking, Li Li turned around and left the cubicle, leaving Tao Ye alone to change clothes inside.

Looking at the clothes neatly stacked on the changing bench, Tao Ye raised his hand and patted his head. He really didn't understand why things turned out like this.

When he came to MIZU today, he originally wanted to collect information by negotiating business, but he didn't expect that Li Li pulled him into the studio by accident and turned into a humanoid self-propelled fitting machine.

Li Li felt very strange to Tao Ye. Although he invited Tao Ye to visit the studio and asked Tao Ye to try on clothes as soon as they met, the light in his eyes didn't look like it could be faked.

Tao Ye has always thought that he is not a person who pursues positive energy, but after seeing Li Li, he also thought briefly that maybe living like this is also a kind of happiness.Therefore, Tao Ye stood in the fitting room in a daze, and put the clothes on his body clumsily.

After getting dressed, Tao Ye opened the velvet curtain and walked out of the cubicle.Li Li was lying on the workbench, writing and drawing something on the paper.Hearing Tao Ye come out, he raised his head, looking at Tao Ye in a black suit as if admiring a work of art.

"It's beautiful." Walking in front of Tao Ye, Li Li stretched out his hand to tidy up Tao Ye's wrinkled collar, patted the silver azalea embroidery on the chest of the suit, and sighed, "It really suits you. "

Tao Ye instinctively wanted to take a step back to avoid Li Li's hand, but was restrained by the light in Li Li's eyes.

He always thought that helping others tidy up their collars was a very intimate thing.However, once the person who did this became Li Li, it became more or less reasonable, because Li Li's gaze was always on the black suit, and he didn't even look Tao Ye in the eye.

Maybe this is the artist...

Tao Ye lowered his eyes, looked at the azalea blooming on his chest, and sighed in his heart.
