William walked to the opposite side of Lin Yilan, pulled out the chair behind him, and made an inviting gesture to Lin Yilan, "Ms. Lin, Mr. Martin, please sit down. ."

Lin Yilan nodded with a smile and sat down.

She put her hands on the armrests on both sides of the chair and looked at William opposite, trying to see what he had to say.

At this point, SG signed a contract with the designer of the brand store in Beijing and even invited the chairman of the group headquarters.

If this matter is revealed, other people who don't know the situation will have to re-evaluate Lin Yilan. Those who didn’t know better would have thought she was some extremely arrogant architect.

Leo couldn't help but glance at William. He had seen him at a banquet before. At that time, William had not divorced his ex-wife. At that time, the couple seemed to have a very strong aura.

He really didn't expect that Lin Yilan's signing would bring William to SG. He felt that his view of Lin Yilan needed to be re-evaluated.

William felt the eyes of the two people opposite him looking at him, and he looked back.

When I was in Beijing before, I had never noticed that volunteers who had not graduated from college were so difficult to deal with. If her design hadn't been really good and Nevaeh had repeatedly expressed his desire to use her, he wouldn't have approached her.

"Ms. Lin, you have put forward many conditions with SG, and we haven't had time to see your design yet. I think this is unfair to SG."

Lin Yilan took out the document bag at the bottom. Slowly pushed to the middle of the conference table, "My designs are all here. If you have any objections, we can discuss them."

Nevaeh glanced at William, and when he nodded, she stood up and took the document bag. Arrived in front of me.

The document bag was very thin. After Nevaeh untied the coils on the document bag one by one, he poured out the design drawings in the document bag.

Lin Yilan did not take out all the design drawings she had prepared at once. What she gave were front views of five candidate sites, and another three sites provided side or top view design drawings.

And she colored each one with colored pencils. In fact, she was really dedicated to this project.

In order to draw these design drawings, she worked overtime for several days in a row.

And the reaction after the design drawing came out was worthy of her hard work.

Nevaeh looked at the meaningful design in front of him, carefully avoiding the colored areas, and placed the design in front of William.

"This is the first piece of information faxed by your SG. There used to be a house on that land, but it has almost collapsed now, and the style of the original building does not match well with SG, so I directly knocked down the original building and rebuilt it. ”

Lin Yilan explained on the side, she also took out a sandwiched photo from the book and placed it in the center of the table.

"This is the current condition of the first piece of land I photographed."

"Although half of the house collapsed, the ginkgo tree behind the yard is actually very beautiful and is decades old, so I didn't want to think about the ginkgo tree. Instead, we made a design around the ginkgo tree.

“I also hope that through the protection of the ginkgo tree, I can express SG’s environmental protection ideas to the outside world.”

When Nevaeh saw the design, she knew she had chosen the right person.

A three-story irregular cube enclosed by light-transmitting glass. There are towering white arcs outside the glass, some of which look like leaves and some of which look like petals. Behind the building is a half-covered ginkgo tree.

This is the first SG brand store designed by Lin Yilan for the first piece of land.

Considering the surrounding environment of these areas, Lin Yilan gave up using bamboo inside in order to prevent the building from looking too messy.

I have to admit that the first piece was favored by her as a designer. She not only drew fully colored front and top views of the first piece's brand store, but also painted pictures of falling ginkgo leaves in autumn and withered ginkgo trees in winter. .

Golden leaves fall on the white building, complementing the SG brand’s logo color.

On the design drawings, Lin Yilan was a little careful. When drawing the SG logo, she used gold, the most classic color in SG.

The people in the conference room who accompanied William and Nevaeh to the meeting were no longer the same group in the morning.

When these people saw Lin Yilan's design, they suddenly understood why William had been supporting Nevaeh in finding this Chinese designer.

Before, some of them thought that William was carried away by love, but now it seems that it is not as simple as imagined.

"Ms. Lin really likes to use streamlines in the buildings she designs." William looked up and sighed after reading the design drawing of the first piece of land.

Lin Yilan smiled, which was indeed too obvious in her two overseas designs so far.

Because the chairman was looking through the design drawings in his hand, the conference room quickly became quiet again.

It was also at this time that Leo really saw Lin Yilan's design.

He couldn't help but look up at Lin Yilan many times. He seemed to finally understand why she could always do things beyond his imagination.

After William read the last design drawing, he turned to a boy next to him and whispered: "Go and call David."

Nevaeh glanced at her husband in surprise, "Is David here too?"

"Of course, he said I want to support you. After hearing about what happened to you here, I flew back in a hurry." William held Nevaeh's hand and patted the back of her hand guiltily.

A rush of footsteps came from outside the conference room door.

After hearing the sound of the door opening, Lin Yilan turned around and saw a man with a beard and a ponytail.

He came in without paying attention to anything, and rushed directly to Nevaeh, "Is this the design drawing brought by the designer you highly recommend?"

Nevaeh nodded, "Yes."

He picked it up directly from the table, and then looked at it got up.

Upon seeing this, William's assistant quickly moved a chair and placed it behind David.

"Very well, William, I think Nevaeh's insistence is right. You should really listen to her opinion this time."

"Who is the designer of this perfect little flower? I want to get to know him."

"Oh, yes. You? Sweetheart."

David carefully put down the drawing and walked to Lin Yilan.

Lin Yilan was stunned for a moment, and thought to herself that this person just looked at two design drawings and just spoke for her. She stood up and stretched out her hand, "Hello, sir, I am their designer Lin Yilan."

After that, she also introduced Leo, who stood up together, "This is Leo Martin, a lawyer from Raglan Lorenz Law Firm. He is also my lawyer today.”

After David said hello to Leo in a perfunctory manner, he started chatting with Lin Yilan enthusiastically.

"Sweetheart, how did you come up with such a design? I'm really curious."

Lin Yilan scratched her head and talked about her thoughts with him.

"At first, because I liked the ginkgo tree very much, I hoped that it could be integrated with the brand store. When I was looking for inspiration, I happened to pick up a few ginkgo leaves. The flowers on the roadside were also blooming, and I still had SG ones in my hand. The petal skirt that was first famous was a magazine cutout, so I made this design...

"

Facing the design director of SG, she carefully told him her design ideas and ideas for the brand store.

When facing people who talk about art, Lin Yilan will not be so calculating.

David held her hand excitedly, "Honey, can I give you a hug? I really like your idea."

"SG has so many stores now, but none of them have used the classics of our founder, Mr. SG. Baby, you are so considerate."

Seeing that he was really excited, Lin Yilan hugged him back.

"Thank you, David. For me, it is the happiest thing for my design to be recognized."

David looked into Lin Yilan's eyes with some affection, e, dear, we are all designers, I am very happy I can understand you. "

William and Nevaeh were completely dumbfounded, especially William. He called David over. He originally wanted him to find fault, but now it's better.

"Ahem, cough, David. Asian girls are very reserved. "Nevaeh saw that David was still holding Lin Yilan's arm and reminded him a few words.

David was not really a fool. After chatting with Lin Yilan for a few words, he sat quietly next to the conference table and listened.

After Lin Yilan finished talking about her After receiving the inspiration, William had to admit that he felt much better about her.

"Lin, thank you very much for designing SG with such care. "

Lin Yilan also thanked her seriously. No matter who praised her design, she would be very grateful to them.

Design is like her child to her, although she has to admit that each design is light or heavy. , but she cherishes them all.

After the project is completed, she will carefully save every inspiration and sketch.

William sighed and reached out to his assistant, "Give me the final version of the contract. "

The assistant took out the folder from the briefcase and put it in William's hand.

After getting the contract, William quickly checked both copies and handed them to Lin Yilan.

"Ms. Lin, my wife and I The design director is impressed by your design, and I am certainly no exception. So I decided to follow your request and stop wasting time. "

Lin Yilan took the contract and handed one to Leo, then took one and read it.

After reading it all, she nodded with satisfaction and deleted the SB clause. It was good.

While reading After looking at the design fee and the work she needed to complete, she couldn't see any problems in other aspects.

The next step was to look at Leo's contract.

Leo read the contract very quickly. I took a pen and circled the areas where I had objections to the contract.

“Just modify these areas and sign. "

He took the contract he had noted and put it into Lin Yilan's hand.

Lin Yilan checked what Leo had modified, then nodded and handed it to William.

The process of signing the contract can be fast or slow. Where.

The two parties just raised the objections in the contract, revised it, discussed it, and then reached an agreement, then reprinted two copies of the contract and signed it.

Lin Yi thought so at the beginning. Who knew that after she came to SG Company, she would still have it. So many things have happened.

Now we have finally entered the contract signing process.

Watching the assistant run out to reprint the contract, Lin Yilan let out a sigh of relief, and then leaned back in his chair

to see her movements . Finally, he turned sideways and asked softly: "What's wrong? Forest.

She tried her best to open her eyes wide and said with a fake smile: "It's okay, I'm just a little tired. " "

Looking at the window above William's head, Lin Yilan decided to relax tomorrow after signing the contract.

No, she will relax tonight.

She will drink Coke, eat potato chips, and eat junk food.

With this in mind She finally cheered up and signed the contract smoothly.

When she walked out of the SG company building with the contract, she suddenly stopped and looked up at the conference room where she was before.

"Is there anything you didn't bring? Forest. Leo held up his suit and looked at Lin Yilan.

Lin Yilan shook her head and looked back at Leo, "Do you think those people in SG will be very angry now?" "

"ah? Leo asked inexplicably: "Is it because I gave you more design fees than expected?"

Lin Yilan nodded, feeling a little funny, "Yes, why do you think the boss will be willing to pay more? " Especially when something can be done with less money, why spend more now? "

And don't forget, what was the reason why I caused this incident in SG before?" "

Thinking of Nevaeh, she looked up at the location of the conference room again, hoping that this sister would give her some help. She had laid the groundwork for her, so sisters should seize the opportunity.

Leo looked at Lin Yilan's back. , followed closely, "What do you want from helping SG's chairman's wife?" "

"Guess it. Lin Yilan turned around and shook her head proudly, "Ah, by the way, you might win a prize if you guess." "

In the conference room of the SG office building, while Lin Yilan and Leo were looking up, there were two people looking downstairs.

William held Nevaeh's hand with the wedding ring on it, "Nevaeh, don't worry, I will definitely take care of this matter. It will be taken care of, Leah, I will switch to another brand. "

After that, he kissed the back of her hand.

Nevaeh looked away from Lin Yilan's figure, smiled and held William's hand back.

"William, what are you going to do? I don't want you to be embarrassed by this matter, but I am indeed very unhappy. "After she leaned into William's arms, she reached out and touched his face.

William touched Nevaeh's hair and kissed her forehead gently, "Honey, what do you want to do?

Nevaeh, leaning in her husband's arms, hid half of her face, "Just follow the company's rules. " Starting from the very beginning of the contract, the person who drafted the contract should do whatever it takes.

William's hand stopped, and his fingers were tangled in her hair, "So...do you have anyone to recommend for the vacancy in the legal department? " "

Nevaeh raised the corners of her mouth slightly, but her tone was very calm, "No, you can just do the interview normally. William, don't let so many complicated relationships appear in SG."

Her head tilted slightly towards the window of the conference room, Lin must be gone now.

"That's fine, just do as you say." William's tone was obviously more relaxed than before.

Nevaeh smiled inwardly, with a gentle expression on his chest.

-After

signing the contract with SG, Lin Yilan began to communicate with SG’s marketing department about site selection.

In addition to work, she also takes time to learn about computer and software-related industries.

In order to find CAD, she visited all the markets related to the computer industry in New York. She even asked Leo and some people from SG to ask their friends, but there was no news.

That was until her first weekend in New York.

Because people at SG Company were not working on weekends, Lin Yilan could rest. She specifically contacted her childhood friend Fan Changxing, who is now studying abroad in New York at public expense.

"Sister Changxing!"

Lin Yilan took the orange juice and looked at Fan Changxing who was looking around and waved hello.

She and Fan Changxing had not seen each other for many years. The last time they met, she was still in junior high school.

It's just that grandpa and Fan Changxing's grandpa were comrades who had worked together for many years, so they often talked about Fan Changxing with her. Otherwise, they might have forgotten each other.

Over the years, sister Changxing has changed a lot.

Looking at Fan Changxing, who was wearing a white shirt, tight jeans, and sunglasses in front of her, she had to lament the transformation of women.

"Sister Changxing, you are more beautiful than before."

At that time, she felt that Fan Changxing's appearance was very similar to that of Hong Kong stars in the 1980s and 1990s. But at that time, because everyone dressed more plainly, it was not so obvious. Now it turns out that he is. What a beauty.

Fan Changxing took off his sunglasses, opened his mouth slightly, and looked up at Lin Yilan, "Xiao Lanlan, you have become so tall now, you are half a head taller than me."

"You look a little quieter than before, and you have changed. " She has become much whiter and is now a beautiful girl.

Lin Yilan has black lines on her head. She admitted that many people in the compound were impressed by her love of climbing trees and catching bugs when she was a child.

After sitting down and waiting for Fan Changxing to order drinks, the two continued chatting.

"Xiao Lanlan, I heard from my grandpa that you are very powerful now. I originally thought that I could still maintain my sister's prestige in front of you, but it seems that I can't now."

Lin Yilan shook the ice cubes in the cup. , and then drank all the juice in one breath, "No

way , Sister Changxing, you are so amazing. To be selected to study abroad at public expense is beyond the reach of many people who want to fight for it." Studying abroad may sound awesome, but I am still very self-aware in front of you." Fan Changxing took the cup from the waiter's hand, "When you can apply for publicly funded study abroad in your junior year, your school will definitely give you a place. "

You can go abroad to do projects while you are still in college. Who would you choose?" She took a sip of the juice in the cup and smacked her mouth.

When she and her grandfather talked about Lin Yilan on the phone some time ago, she couldn't believe that the outstanding person her grandfather mentioned was actually the little kid who loved walking around the compound when she was a child.

Sure enough, everyone has changed a lot.

Lin Yilan pinched her straw, leaving nail marks on the plastic straw. "Sister Changxing, to tell you the truth, I have no plans to apply to study abroad."

Fan Changxing was stunned for a moment, put the cup next to him, and held it in both hands. Holding her face, the flesh on her face was squeezed together.

"Xiao Lanlan, are you stupid? Why don't you come to study abroad?"

After getting excited, she suddenly became depressed again, "Oh~ Although I don't want to say this, I have to admit that the current education level in China is still not as good as abroad. There is a difference. When you come to the United States, you will find that the level of architectural design in the United States is far behind that of China. "

"You are very talented, but you should not waste them, but learn to make good use of them. Give it your best shot."

Fan Changxing's appearance at this moment suddenly changed to that of his childhood in Lin Yilan's mind.

At that time, she also persuaded herself so earnestly.

It's a pity...if those things hadn't happened, she might...

Lin Yilan cheered up again, a smile appeared on her face, "Sister Changxing, actually, I came here today. I want to consult you on something, oh, no, that's right. To be precise, I want to ask you for help."

Fan Changxing waved his hand boldly, "Tell me, Xiao Lanlan, I will help you if I can."

Lin Yilan took out a notebook from her bag, and this is what she said. Time collected in New York.

New York's computer industry may not be as good as San Francisco's Silicon Valley, but it shouldn't be too far behind now.

"Sister Changxing, you majored in computer science. You must have some understanding of the future development of computers. You also know that I majored in architectural design. The most troublesome thing for me now is drawing design drawings. Drawing drawings by hand is not only efficient but also very efficient. " It's slow, and the fault tolerance rate is very low."

"Originally, the design time of a project may take a month, but if there is a software that can draw design drawings, I estimate that the time can be shortened by at least half.

So Sister Changxing, you have it. Are you interested in designing such a software?"

After speaking, she handed the notebook to Fan Changxing.

She wrote down her memories of this period in the notebook. She wrote down all the functions of the design software she used in her previous life and the functions of software other than CAD.

Without knowing whether it could be done, she wrote it down without any hesitation.

Because her knowledge of computers is really shallow.

After handing over the notebook, Lin Yilan blinked and looked expectantly at Fan Changxing opposite.

Fan Changxing felt that Xiao Lanlan had great ideas from the beginning, but when she saw the content in the notebook, she had to admit that there was a reason why her friend could succeed.

As she turned the pages, the expression on her face grew more serious.

Lin Yilan stared at Sister Changxing's expression. In fact, she didn't know whether this software could be designed, but she really needed this software.

Fan Changxing put down her notebook and sighed deeply, "I'm very confused, Xiao Lanlan."

She held Fan Changxing's hand, "Sister Changxing, tell me what you're struggling with, and we'll find a solution together."

Fan Changxing Holding her chin with her free hand, she stared motionlessly at Lin Yilan across from her.

Until Lin Yilan was so shocked that she said, "Sister Changxing, you are going to see through my brain."

"I just want to see through your brain. How does your brain grow? Why do everyone eat the same food?" , Even if you are half a head taller than me, you are so much smarter than me." Fan Changxing pinched Lin Yilan's cheeks with both hands and said in a sour tone: "Damn it, people like you simply don't do this to me. Ordinary people have a way to survive.”

Not to be outdone, Lin Yilan also stretched out her hand to pinch Fan Changxing's face, "Sister Changxing, being too modest is pride. You can get this publicly funded study abroad place from so many people, and you can also complete the credits in college in advance, and you can also be a graduate student. The application is accepted, can it be an ordinary person?"

The two looked at each other and said in unison: "I will count to one, two, three, let go together."

"One." Lin Yilan stared into Fan Changxing's eyes.

Fan Changxing also stared back, "Two."

The two of them said in unison: "Three!"

and then let go of their hands.

Lin Yilan rubbed her cheek, "Sister Changxing, what do you think of my idea? Can it be implemented?"

Fan Changxing held up the cup and used the ice cubes in the cup to apply cold compress on his face, "Yes, it's okay, but Xiaolin, if I'm a If someone designs it, it may take a long time, but if you want someone to help, I can ask my classmates, but you may have to pay a salary."

Lin Yilan thought of her recent gains, "The salary is easy to say, how much it will cost. If it's not enough, I can still go for investment."

The words "investment" made Fan Changxing's eyebrows rise. "Are you serious? You really want to go big."

Lin Yilan took the book. , turned a few pages back, "This is some data I found, the global number of architects and construction engineers in the two industries, look at it!

The number of people is increasing now. After this software is developed, if All the architects and engineers are buying it, how big a market do we have?"

She calmed down a bit when she saw Fan Changxing staring at the book, "Of course, these are far-fetched things now. Sister, as a computer major, you should know better than me how much changes computers will have on human society in the future."

Fan Changxing raised his hand, "Lin Yilan, please stop talking and let me read your notebook quietly. "The content."

Lin Yilan closed her mouth in response.

In addition to the software functions she recalled during this period and the general development of the U.S. computer industry, the content in her notebook also wrote a very simple market report.

Although this project is very promising, it is not guaranteed to be a success, and she knows this very well. In addition to software, how to let other people use this software is also a question of thinking.

And she also put forward various ways she thought of in the notebook.

For Lin Yilan, this software is also a big gamble for her. She may have to spend all her chips, but she feels that her chance of winning is not small.

As long as she succeeds, she will be more confident and capable when facing her mother's ex-husband's family.

This is a life-changing choice, both for her and Sister Changxing.

"Bang!"

Fan Changxing slapped the table, stood up and stretched out his right hand towards Lin Yilan.

"Xiao Lanlan, I decided to cooperate with you to develop this software."

Lin Yilan looked at Fan Changxing's hand, a little at a loss, it was so casual!

Seeing that she didn't hold his hand back, Fan Changxing waved his right hand in front of her, "Will you cooperate?"

Lin Yilan held Fan Changxing's hand, "Of course!"

"Thank you, Fan Changxing."

The two of them said. After the handshake was loosened, Fan Changxing hooked Lin Yilan's neck, "I'll go! You don't call me Sister Changxing now. Xiao Lanlan, are you going to rebel?"

"Be careful, I will strangle you!"

Lin Yilan He looked speechlessly at the girl who tried to strangle her but couldn't. Seeing her flushed face, he couldn't help but comforted: "Sister Changxing, how about I cooperate with you?"

Fan Changxing was so angry that he strangled her fiercely. Hitting Lin Yilan's forehead, "You actually ridiculed me?!"

"Ahhhh - I was wrong." Lin Yilan dodged the claws she extended, twisted her waist and ran away.

Time flew by so fast, Lin Yilan felt like she had just slept a few times, and it was almost time to return to China.

She looked at the architectural model she built and called Nevaeh, "Nevaeh, I've built the model. Find someone to drive and move it."

Nevaeh: "Okay, thank you for your hard work. By the way, do you want to get off work today?" Want to go out for a drink?"

Lin Yilan glanced at the number on the landline. Did she enter the wrong number? This person actually invited her to have a drink?

"If I remember correctly, people under the age of 21 in the United States are not allowed to drink, right?" she asked confused.

Nevaeh patted his forehead lightly, "I forgot, I've known you for so long, I even forgot that you were just a young kid."

Lin Yilan suppressed the twitching corners of her mouth, "If you want to scold me, just say so. Don't beat around the bush here. Anyway, we have been arguing a lot during this time."

Nevaeh chuckled, "Don't get angry so easily. Since you can't go to the bar, I'll invite you to dinner.

I haven’t even taken a good look at the night view of New York, so I’m about to go back. It’s because I didn’t treat

her well enough. “You can’t get anything for free, and you can’t get along with her.”

If I didn't blackmail her, I would be sorry for feeling tired for so many days.

"Okay, it's agreed, I want to have a big meal." Lin Yilan shook her body proudly.

Nevaeh heard her happiness and coaxed like a child: "Of course, don't worry."

After hanging up the phone, she looked at the phone and couldn't help but smile and shake her head. She is really a child, and a delicious meal is enough. Can be coaxed out.

It's too easy to be fooled.

After the model was moved, Lin Yilan did not go to SG. Instead, she went to the law firm to find Leo to handle something.

Standing at the front desk of the law firm, she looked boredly at the two rows of clocks hanging behind the girl at the front desk.

New York, Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, Hawaii, Paris, London...

looking at them one by one, Lin Yilan also saw Hong Kong.

It has the style of a five-star hotel lobby.

This marble countertop makes this place more like a hotel lobby.

Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, Lin Yilan turned around and saw Leo walking out anxiously.

"Lin, you're here so early?"

Lin Yilan looked up and down, and her style was different from before.

My hair was not sprayed with mousse. I don’t know if it was because I scratched it, but it looked a little messy. My tie was not tied, and the first button of my white shirt was undone, and the collar was open, giving me a messy aesthetic.

Soon, she withdrew her gaze and stretched out her hand to Leo, "Yes, have you drafted the contract?"

Leo nodded, "It's done. Just wait for me. I'll take it out for you now."

"By the way, have you had lunch? Let me treat you to lunch and answer some of your previous questions."

Lin Yilan made an OK gesture.

After watching Leo return to the office area of ​​the law firm, she began to look around again out of boredom.

After looking at the clock on the wall at the front desk, she couldn't help but glance at the two girls working at the front desk of the law firm.

Thinking of Leo from before, she looked at the two girls again and couldn't help but wonder if this law firm had any appearance requirements when recruiting?

Why are they all so beautiful? !

"What are you looking at? Let's go." When Leo came out, he saw Lin Yilan standing there in a daze. He stepped forward, walked up to her, and waved to her.

Lin Yilan withdrew her gaze and glanced at Leo who had finished cleaning up. "Let's go."

The two of them didn't go far away for dinner, so they just found a restaurant near the law firm to eat.

She ordered a steak salad and Leo ordered a green salad.

"You just eat vegetable salad. Aren't you hungry in the afternoon?" She looked at the boy in front of her in disbelief. He didn't look thin.

Leo calmly poured himself a glass of water, "I've been working out recently to lose weight, and other dishes are too high in calories."

Sure enough, beauty comes with a price.

Lin Yilan felt silent about her habit of eating meat.

"By the way, do you have any thoughts or suggestions about what I asked you before?" She touched the cold side of the cup and put the water aside.

Leo frowned, he couldn't understand the person in front of him.

"Is it a matter of the company's equity distribution?"

Lin Yilan took the plate from the waiter, picked up a fork, and inserted a piece of meat. "Yes. What's your suggestion?"

"I want to 100% protect the rights of the company founder. , the best way is for the founder to hold more than 50% of the shares." Leo patiently talked to her about American corporate law.

He poked at the green vegetables in front of him, "But if you want to go public and raise funds, it's difficult to guarantee that the holding will always be above 50%. And if you still have shares that you want to distribute to other technicians, it's basically impossible to hold the share. "

Lin Yilan also knew something about these situations. Although she didn't know the specific laws, she had read a lot of news.

Leo asked curiously, "Lin, do you want to start your own architecture firm?"

Lin Yilan glanced at Leo and shook her head, "No, it's still very early, so don't think about it now."

She sighed. She took a breath and decided to think about the equity issue again, and then she remembered what she had asked Leo before.

"Have you thought about it? I plan to sign a contract with you."

Considering that Leo is indeed reliable and proficient in the legal terms of many countries, and is also a well-known elite lawyer in the American legal circle, Lin Yilan plans to sign a contract with him. She plans to hire him as her lawyer for a long time, specifically responsible for helping her handle legal matters such as patents and contracts with project parties.

However, in order to cooperate, both parties must be willing.

Leo picked up the tissue next to him and wiped his mouth. "I've prepared the contract. We can sign it when we get up."

"By the way, how is your work at SG?"

Lin Yilan was stunned for a moment. It doesn’t look like a lawyer who cares about his client’s private situation. It’s probably because something happened to SG again. “What’s wrong? I’ve been modifying the design of the brand store with the staff of the marketing department and design department of SG recently. I haven’t heard of it. What's going on with SG Company?" Leo took out a newspaper from his bag and handed it to her, "It's not from SG Company, it's from SG Group. To be precise, it's their chairman's business," Lin Yilan said

.

He wiped his mouth, took the newspaper, and started reading.

[SG Chairman William Dewey was revealed to have had a five-hour private meeting with his ex-wife Grace Moore in the forest villa recently]

Looking at the paparazzi photos in the newspaper, she quickly recognized that the man was indeed William, and the other The woman with reddish brown hair must be his ex-wife.

This man with reddish-brown hair looked really familiar. Suddenly, she remembered that Leo had told her before that someone from William's ex-wife's family was working in his company.

It turns out to be her, no wonder she has such a high tone.

When Leo saw that she was silent, he picked up the water glass and took a sip, "I told you before that SG Company is very chaotic right now. Nevaeh, you'd better not believe her too much. I think she also wants to use you to get rid of SG Company.

"Unfortunately, the meat in other places in SG has been eaten, so Nevaeh can only pick a bone and gnaw on it."

He couldn't help but touch his belly as he talked about the bones . It's the same as not eating.

"Lin, to be honest, you must not get involved in SG's affairs. For William's sake, the Moore family will not deal with his current wife, but you may not."

Lin Yilan put down the newspaper and said, He smiled and said, "Why are they trying to deal with me? I'm not interested in this whole thing in SG. What I'm focusing on right now is my career."

"As for Nevaeh, you don't have to worry about me having a good relationship with her. She and I don't even dare to hug each other, for fear of stabbing each other one day."

She didn't know what she was thinking of, so she picked up the gossip newspaper in front of her and flicked the photo of William printed on it.

"Besides, Leo, don't underestimate Nevaeh, she is not that simple."

"Hey, Leo, are you eating here too?"

Suddenly a tall, plump girl with long blond hair and a sweet voice sat next to Leo. , hooked his arm.

"Baby, I miss you so much. Do you have time recently?"

Lin Yilan silently picked up the newspaper she had just put down.

Mom, what's going on?

Damn, this is so embarrassing.

She held up the newspaper, which could cover her eyes, but not her ears.

I heard a chirp. It must have been the girl kissing Leo?

She stared at the newspaper in a daze, and didn't come to her senses until Leo spoke.

"Ahem, Lin, you can put down the newspaper, I'm sorry."

Lin Yilan put down the newspaper and looked at him with a reproachful look, "Friend, the customer opposite you has just grown up. I want to talk to you next time. Can you say hello to your girlfriend when you are intimate?"

Leo wiped the lipstick marks on his cheeks with a tissue, "Sorry, I will pay attention next time."

"And she is not my girlfriend." He shrugged easily. He also made a joke to her, "Now I finally have the feeling that you are Chinese."

The condemnation in her eyes instantly became more.

Damn, she took it, this person shouldn't be sick, right?

She must share meals with him in the future, and she must not eat from the same dish without serving chopsticks.

After Leo felt her gaze, he said with black lines on his head: "Lin, the United States is not your country, and we are not as conservative about the relationship between men and women as you are."

Lin Yilan couldn't hear his excuse, she raised her index finger and waved it , "NONONO, what I mean is that I can't stand people who mess around. I understand that you have male and female friends to have sex with, but I can't understand that you are looking for bed partners, and it seems that there are more than one at the same time."

Leo didn't bother to say anything more to Lin Yilan. He snorted, "You guys are too conservative. Okay, go ahead and sign the contract."

Lin Yilan took her bag and followed him out of the restaurant.

But after she left the restaurant, she still couldn't help saying what she was holding in her heart, "Leo, please remember to have regular physical examinations. I don't want my lawyer to contract the disease at a young age."

If a person's current emotions will be substantive Well, Leo must be covered in black smoke at this moment.

He looked at Lin Yilan as if he wanted to eat someone.

"Don't worry! I'm not sick!" When he spoke, you could even hear the sound of teeth grinding.

Lin Yilan quickly comforted the man who was about to explode, "Okay, okay, you're not sick, I know."

"Let's go, let's sign the contract quickly, I have to go to SG later."

After getting on the elevator, Lin Yilan took advantage of the reflective wall of the elevator to glance at Leo's expression and whispered, "I didn't say you were sick now, I just said you should be careful about getting sick in the future."

Leo instantly turned his head and stared at Lin Yilan, " Can we change the topic? Lin Yilan, do you want to pay more for your lawyer's fees?"

Lin Yilan raised her hands in surrender, "OK, I won't say anything anymore."

She also made a zipper gesture with her hands.
