Chapter 142 - The invitation from me

Time flew, but nothing changed between lovers.

At midnight, Manla fell asleep. Gu Yan was still awake and looked outside thoughtfully.

She felt vacuous at this long night.

Mo Yichen was lying on the bed, struggling whether he should call Gu Yan or not.

“Forget it. Gu Yan, you should go to sleep.” Gu Yan felt that she was a little bit self-sentimental.

It finally came to the next morning. Gu Yan went to the studio early as usual.

“Morning, Did you sleep well last night? Enjoyed your time?” Xiao Ling asked. Gu Yan found it was marvelous that everyone came earlier than her.

“What’s going on?” Gu Yan asked Xiao Ling who was holding a manuscript.

“Yesterday, Sister Yuan Xi told us that we have too much orders this month, so we have to work overtime to sort them out last night. This is the earliest morning I get up.” Xiao Ling said helplessly. She was sleepy.

“Thank you for your effects.” Then Gu Yan went back to the office.

Gu Yan was also very tired. Given the increase of the orders, Gu Yan had to do more. She usually had no time for lunch.

Gu Yan had thought about setting a branch office for a few months. But she’s not sure about it since her studio just started. It was really a relatively large risk.

“Manla, are you available this afternoon? I want to discuss something with you.” Gu Yan called Manla who was on her way to work.

“Why don’t you tell me now? I’m listening.” Manla was drinking the soy milk in her hand as she answered the call.

“I want you to introduce me more people as much as I’ve got now.”

“What’s your problem? Why do you need so many people?” Manla was scared and almost spit out the soymilk.

“Let’s talk about it in the evening.” Gu Yan hung up directly.

“Come on. You promised to tell me your business.” Manla complained.

“Yuan Xi, e-mail me your manuscript. I will inspect it and give it back to you at noon. Then you need to sort out the summary sheet and send it to me. I’m leaving this afternoon. You’ll be in charge by then.”

“Well, got it.” Yuan Xi looked at Gu Yan who was serious and followed her command.

“I’m getting to the end since there’s only the last step left.” Gu Yan was very satisfied when she looked at the design.

“Gu Yan, lunch time.” Xiao Ling looked at Gu Yan who was busy in the office. “Well, she is the boss.”

“OK. I will come later.” Gu Yan continued her work.

“Yes! I’m done!”

“What makes you so happy?” Yuan Xi was attracted by Gu Yan.

“This is the best design I’ve ever made.” Gu Yan was excited and asked Yuan Xi to see her design.

“What’s this? Seems like a design of a tiny room with many tool designs. You really racked your brain for this. Who is the customer?” Yuan Xi was curious who the lucky dog was.

“It’s an old friend. I designed it for his child. I hope that he would like it.” Gu Yan spoke naturally and didn’t draw any suspension from Yuan Xi.

“I have to go.” Gu Yan was about to leave.

“Sister Gu Yan, where are you going?” Xiao Ling asked Gu Yan who was in hurry.

“To see an important person.” Gu Yan went out and said.

“An important person? Who’s so important that you could even ignore your studio? Is she falling in love?” Xiao Ling murmured and thought about Gu Yan’s recent behavior.

“Xiao Ling, come to take the documents you copied.”

“Got it.”

Gu Yan walked on the road and then called Mo Yichen.

“President Mo, are you free in the afternoon?” Gu Yan asked and pulled her bag.

“Yes. What’s going on?” Mo Yichen replied without any hesitation. He had been waiting for a long time to see Gu Yan and kept watching his phone during the meeting.

“What happened?” Mo Yichen was worried.

“Nothing important. I just want to show you the design. Are you busy?” Gu Yan replied.

“No, there is only a document to sign and a video conference to hold in the afternoon.” Mo Yichen couldn’t concentrate on his business all day but thought of Gu Yan. The call was put through in time.

“I will send you the address later.” Gu Yan hung up immediately. She was afraid that she would blush.

“Actually, you don’t have to hang up so fast since I want to talk to you, but…” Mo Yichen looked at the phone and smiled.

Gu Yan walked to the cafe. She felt that the weather was warm and pleasant even if it was cloudy. She was full of expectations at this moment.

Mo Yichen got to the cafe soon.

Before he got off, he asked, “Do you want to go with me?” Mo Yichen said it deliberately because Wu Gang would be embarrassed if he followed.

“Come on, boss. Don’t make fun of me.” Wu Gang rejected Mo Yichen directly.

“Don’t you often complain that I treat you bad?”

“No, you treat me very well.” Wu Gang forced a smile. Then Mo Yichen got out of the car.

“Fine. I thought you would treat me a good meal.” Wu Gang complained as he reversed the car.

Mo Yichen sorted out his collar before he entered the cafe. Then he looked around and tried to find Gu Yan.

“President Mo, right here.” Gu Yan waved to him.

Mo Yichen saw her and nodded.

“It’s hard to meet you, huh?” Gu Yan looked at Mo Yichen who was in a suit. He made people feel comfortable.

“I’m sorry, last time I was…” Mo Yichen wanted to explain because he didn’t want her to misunderstand.

“Never mind. I know you are very busy.” Then Gu Yan ordered the drinks.
