Is there a mistake?The pampered little princess of Ganlu Group actually wants to work in a private bookstore?With Gan Tian's identity, if she goes to her own company, she must be at least a middle-level and high-level leader, right?Are all women with love brains this crazy?Song Lan expressed that she was very incomprehensible.

If Gan Tian really came to the Shadow Bookstore, what kind of position should I arrange for her?Even the store manager has wronged her too much, right?Is it possible that I want to give up the position of boss?

Taking a step back, even if Gan Tian is willing to be a small shop assistant, what about her family?The members of the Gan family would definitely not agree to their favorite being so wronged.In this way, not to mention being on good terms with the Ganlu Group, it is already a thousand thanks for not making enemies!

"No, you have to stop her!" Thinking of this, Song Lan shouted anxiously into the phone.

"But Boss, I feel like it's too late..." Zhang Fan turned his head and looked helplessly at Gan Tian who was standing behind him with a smile on his face and excited, and felt that his brain was so painful.

"That Miss Gan is coming to the bookstore to apply?" After Song Lan hung up the phone, Xie Daonian asked eagerly.

Song Lan felt quite a headache: "Yeah, Zhang Fan said he couldn't stop her anymore, and asked me to go back in person."

Xie Daonian opened his mouth without thinking, "Then I'll go with you!"

"What are you going to do?" Song Lan frowned slightly, "This matter has nothing to do with you."

"It's about you, it's about me!" Xie Daonian blurted out in desperation.

Both of them were taken aback for a moment.

"Uh, what I mean is that I'm also the owner of the Shadow Bookstore. Now that the bookstore is busy, I can't always be the shopkeeper." Xie Daonian explained with a slightly embarrassed expression.

Song Lan raised her eyebrows, took a deep look at Xie Daonian, shook her head and said, "No need, you are also needed to sit here in Shanghai, just take care of Yingcha and Yingying Dessert House. I will deal with the problems in Jincheng." It will resolve itself."

Xie Daonian was silent for a few seconds, looked at Song Lan's face, clenched his hands hanging on both sides of his body into fists, and asked slowly, as if making up his mind: "After you leave, will you...will you come to Shanghai in the future? "

"...What are you talking about? Of course I will come." Song Lan swallowed, panic flashed across his face for a moment, but he quickly adjusted his emotions, "After all, my goal is to With bookstores opening all over the world, how could they miss the vast market of Shanghai?"

Xie Daonian stared into Song Lan's eyes: "You know that's not what I'm talking about."

Of course Song Lan knew, what Xie Daonian asked was, after everything was open and honest, would Song Lan, like before, find time to visit him in the Magic City occasionally, and call him as usual every night.

It was difficult for Song Lan to answer this question.Because his mind is so messed up right now, he can't even figure out his true intentions, how should he face Xie Daonian?

The only thing that is certain is that it is impossible for the two of them to return to the kind of friendship that they used to have as good friends, even if it is only the "friendship" that Song Lan unilaterally considers.

"Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?" Song Lan smiled dryly, intending to evade it vaguely.

Xie Daonian lowered his head and narrowed his eyes, his long and thick eyelashes drooped slightly, making it difficult to see the expression on his face.

Looking at his lonely figure, Song Lan's heart seemed to be pricked by a needle: It seems that Xie Daonian is not in a good mood.

This was the first time Song Lan saw Xie Daonian so sad, which made him at a loss, and felt like a bully bullying a woman from a good family, and his heart was full of guilt for Xie Daonian.

In order to alleviate this feeling of guilt, Song Lan hurriedly comforted him and said, "Okay, I promise you, if I have time, I will definitely come to Shanghai to see you."

Xie Daonian's eyelashes moved, but he still didn't look up.

"I didn't go to the ends of the earth when I went to Jincheng. Besides, the communication tools are so convenient now. We must meet each other. Isn't it enough to make a video call?" Song Lan continued to comfort.

"So you still call me every night, right?" Xie Daonian raised his head abruptly, looking at Song Lan with sparkling eyes, as if there were little stars dancing.

"D-Of course..." Song Lan turned her face away slightly, feeling a little guilty.

There was a moment of silence, and then Xie Daonian said: "Then be careful on the road." While speaking, the corners of his mouth kept rising.

Song Lan breathed out softly: Finally, his consolation has paid off, and Xie Daonian doesn't seem to be angry anymore.

But why, he suddenly had a feeling of being calculated?Song Lan wondered.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the airport." The revived Xie Daonian picked up the car keys with a rather cheerful tone.

Song Lan temporarily let go of her doubts, nodded and said, "Okay."

***

Hurriedly rushing back to Lijin Mall, before reaching the door, Song Lan was startled by those strong men who looked like bodyguards in black suits and sunglasses surrounding the bookstore: What's going on?Are you filming a TV series?

Because the door of the bookstore is surrounded by these few bodyguards who can be easily messed with at a glance, the customers who originally wanted to enter the store have detoured. The time of day with the highest traffic.

Song Lan couldn't help frowning.

He walked into the store, but the bodyguards didn't stop him, but Song Lan could feel a few cold gazes on him.At that time, Song Lan was immediately dissatisfied, but she thought that if something happened in her own shop, she would be the one who would be unlucky, so she could only forcefully suppress the anger in her heart, and walked in without saying a word.

There was a sound of eager footsteps from far to near, and Zhang Fan was the first to notice that he was back.

"Boss," Zhang Fan leaned closer to Song Lan's ear, wanting to report the situation in the store, with a nervous and helpless face, "I really can't stop Ms. Gan, so I have to..."

"I see, you are not to blame for this matter." Song Lan interrupted Zhang Fan's explanation, "But what happened to those people outside?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Fan was even more troubled: "Those seem to be Miss Gan's bodyguards."

He just knew it was so!Song Lan covered her forehead, feeling dizzy for a while.

He could roughly guess why things happened like this: the Gan family naturally didn't want Gan Tian, ​​a rich lady, to work as a waiter in a small bookstore, but Gan Tian insisted on doing so, and the Gan family couldn't help it.So he had to settle for the next best thing, and sent a group of bodyguards over, for fear that his daughter would be wronged while working.

Song Lan could understand what Gan's family did, but the problem was that those bodyguards had seriously affected the business of the bookstore!If it continues, the Shadow Bookstore will not have to open, because there will be no customers who dare to come to the door.

"Mr. Song, you are finally back!" A sweet and soft voice full of surprise sounded behind Song Lan, and then a petite figure ran up to Song Lan, looked up at him, his face was full of joy.

Gan Tian is wearing the characteristic apron of the Shadow Bookstore, and her long curly hair is tied up high with a hair tie. She used to only wear skirts and high heels, but now she has changed into pants and flat shoes. At first glance, she looks like an ordinary young female college student. .

Of course, it would be more like her dress if it wasn't Chanel.

Facing this little girl who was so well protected by the family and was so naive as to be wayward, Song Lan, who was quite a gentleman, couldn't say a single serious word.After brewing in her mind for a long time, Song Lan sighed softly: "Miss Gan, why did you suddenly say that you want to be a shop assistant?"

"I'm here to help you." Gan Tian thought naively, her charming almond eyes seemed to be filled with the words "seeking compliments".

Song Lan's expression was complicated: Judging from today's situation, this lady is not here to help, but rather to make trouble!

"Miss Gan is a daughter of a thousand gold, and I really feel wronged for you to come to this shop as a small clerk." Song Lan thought about her words, trying to persuade Gan Tian to give up this idea, "If Miss Gan wants to experience life, why not?" Go to the Ganlu Wenchuang Living Museum under the name of your group? The environment there is much better than our bookstore, and you must be able to adapt better."

"Mr. Song, do you dislike me?" Gan Tian's eyes suddenly became watery, and her voice was full of grievances.

Song Lan was taken aback: You must know that the bodyguards at the door are always paying attention to the movement here, and if you want them to see that your lady is made to cry by him, then you still have something good to eat?Of course, he was not afraid of those bodyguards, but only worried about his own bookstore.If something unsettling happened, he probably wouldn't even think about opening a shop in Jincheng.

For a while, Song Lan was extremely helpless, and even felt that the lethality of this silly white sweet lady was stronger than that of the competitors she met before, she could be called a walking person|meat bomb|bomb, killing people invisible .

"Of course that's not the case," Song Lan hurriedly waved her hands to explain, showing hesitation, "It's just that Miss Gan, your bodyguards have been standing at the door of the store, which may affect the normal order of the bookstore."

The person who tied the bell had to be untied. Since these men in black were provoked by Gan Tian, ​​she had to deal with it naturally.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect things to turn out like this." Gan Tian frowned when she heard the words, and said to Song Lan pitifully, "Then Mr. Song, if I let them go, won't you drive me away? "

"Miss Gan, I'm sorry, you are really not suitable for this job. I'm not saying that you are incompetent, but because of your identity and status, you are destined to be the most eye-catching focus wherever you go. I also frankly tell you You said, if you come to our bookstore as a clerk, your family will definitely not agree. I, Song Lan, am just a small businessman. I don’t think I have any strength to oppose the Ganlu Group. The family is against you." Song Lan said lightly.

"If I wasn't Miss Gan's family, would you accept me?" Gan Lu looked like she was about to cry, and I really felt pity for her.If it was someone else, they might have softened their hearts at this moment.

It's a pity that our Boss Song is more determined: "If you are not the daughter of the Gan family, with your appearance and ability, I certainly welcome you to come to the bookstore as a clerk. But this assumption is not valid. If there is no if, you are the Gan family." Miss."

Sweet tears finally fell down, crying like pear blossoms with rain, and finally couldn't help it, and ran away covering her face.Seeing this, the bodyguards outside the door followed eagerly.

Song Lan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Gan Tian would not come again this time.

"Boss, you made Ms. Gan cry. Will the Gan family settle accounts with you?" Zhang Fan, who had been watching the scene from the sidelines, finally spoke, raising his eyebrows.

Song Lan had a faint smile on his lips: "No."

"Boss, are you so confident?" Zhang Fan was slightly surprised.

"I'm confident because I know that the Gan family doesn't want their lady to be a clerk, but obviously Miss Gan doesn't listen to the family, and I can only be the bad guy." As early as the moment he saw the bodyguard, Song Lan already understood the Gan family's plan.

——Gan Tian also came to the bookstore every day before, but she never saw bodyguards appearing beside her, not because there were no bodyguards, but because the bodyguards were all hidden, so as not to be discovered, so as not to affect Gan Tian's normal life.But after Gan Tian decided to work as a clerk, those bodyguards suddenly appeared in a high-profile manner, for fear that others would not know what she was doing, and she looked like the Matrix, except for the black trench coat.

The Gan family deliberately let this group of black-clothed bodyguards show up, just to test the pressure on the shadow bookstore, and through Song Lan's hands, Gan Tian would retreat in spite of difficulties, so that they would win without blood or a fight.

Sure enough, no one who has been in the mall for a long time is a pure and good person.

"It's actually quite a pity," Zhang Fan said with great interest. "With Miss Gan's appearance, if she can really join our bookstore, it will be like a free advertisement, which will definitely attract many customers."

Zhang Fan had imagined that Gan Tian would come to the Shadow Bookstore before, but after the fact happened, he knew that his thinking was too simple.

"Stop dreaming, her identity determines her life." Song Lan gave Zhang Fan a sideways look.

"Again," Zhang Fan's eyes were tinged with playfulness, "Boss, don't you have the slightest bit of heartbeat in front of such a beauty?"

Song Lan raised her eyebrows, squinted at him, and said, "You still have the mind to take care of other people's affairs. Could it be that you think your work is too idle? Do you want me to give you more?"

Zhang Fan said awkwardly: "Then what, boss, don't bother me, I'm off to work." After saying that, he ran away.

"Do people in the heavens gossip like this?" Song Lan said to herself, "It's different from what I imagined..."

***

In the middle of the month, after seeing off the last batch of customers in the bookstore, Song Lan closed the doors and windows, and was about to leave when her cell phone rang.

Oops, forgot one thing!Looking at the three words "Xie Daonian" flashing on the phone screen, Song Lan felt guilty for a while.

I promised too hastily today, without thinking too much about it, and after thinking about it afterwards, I regretted it: I shouldn't have agreed to keep talking with Xie Daonian. Now that I think about it, it's really embarrassing.It was almost impossible for him to face Xie Daonian with the attitude he had in the past, but if not, what would they say?

In the past, on the phone, the two would chat casually about what happened that day, such as the best customers they met, or the business in the store.In short, it is also very happy to say whatever comes to mind and chat aimlessly.

But now, let him tell Xie Daonian these things as if nothing had happened. I don't know how Xie Daonian feels. Anyway, Song Lan always feels weird.

Just when Song Lan was struggling, the phone rang for a while and finally stopped.

Song Lan felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief: In this way, he doesn't have to worry about answering the phone, just pretend that he didn't hear it and missed it.

Unexpectedly, a few seconds later, the phone rang again, and it seemed to be ringing forever.

No way, here we go again.Song Lan's face changed slightly.

If you don't answer, I'm afraid Xie Daonian will really keep calling... Thinking of this possibility, Song Lan bit her lip, took a deep breath, and pressed the connect button.

"Hello..." Song Lan said weakly.

Xie Daonian's voice sounded quite normal. As usual, he took the initiative to tell him about what happened in the store today. At the end, he asked him, "Where are you? Has Miss Gan's matter been resolved?"

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Song Lan always felt that when Xie Daonian said the word "Miss Gan", his tone was a bit unnatural.

Song Lan pressed down on this thought, and Shan Xing briefly told Xie Daonian what happened today.

"Miss Gan hasn't come back since she ran away, so she probably thinks it's boring." Song Lan complained to Xie Daonian, "In short, the matter has been settled satisfactorily. There will be a dinner party next time. I don't want to attend it anyway. ..."

Xie Daonian listened quietly, with a slight smile on his lips, just like the countless calls in the past in the middle of the night, when he was also smiling and listening to Song Lan.

In the middle of speaking, Song Lan suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Xie Daonian asked puzzled.

Song Lan's voice sounded weird: "I don't know if I missed something..."

"Huh?" Xie Daonian didn't understand.

But in the next second, the voice from the phone made him understand——

"Miss Gan, why are you here?" It was Song Lan's surprised tone.

Sweet?Didn't Song Lan say that she ran away?Why did it appear again now?Besides, it's still in the middle of the night, and a young woman came to find a man... The development of this plot made Xie Daonian a little uneasy.

Just as he was thinking about it, Xie Daonian heard a few women's sobs coming from the receiver of the mobile phone.Before he could ask a question, he listened to Song Lan on the other end of the phone and said, "I'm sorry, I encountered something here, let's talk about it later."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xie Daonian to say anything, he hung up the phone in a hurry.

Looking at the phone interface showing that the call had been hung up, the light in Xie Daonian's eyes suddenly dimmed, and he couldn't help but clenched his fists.
