Chapter 75 Perfume Spokesperson

He took her to a quiet garden on the outskirts of the city.

On a spring night, the silver moonlight gently shines on the grass, flowers and trees, and the chirping of insects everywhere is like a pleasant ditty. She saw the elegant wooden plaque in front of the hanging flower door: Gu Yuan. The font is old and powerful, showing the extraordinary magnanimity and skill of the person who wrote it.

She blinked: "Where is this?"

Before Li Lei could speak, a figure had already stepped out on the cobblestone pavement in the depths of Guyuan, wearing a black double-breasted middle suit and carrying a smoky blue quaint lantern. When she got closer, Xia Ling saw clearly that it was an elegant man in his fifties with gray hair, wearing half a pair of silver-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose.

He had a gentle smile on his face: "It turns out to be Second Young Master Li, a rare guest, a rare guest."

"Uncle Zhou, long time no see." Li Lei also greeted him happily, "Is Grandpa Gu at home? I just came back from abroad, and I specially brought him some fresh truffles."

The housekeeper of Uncle Zhou Gu Garden knew that Mr. Gu loved Li Lei, so he smiled and said, "At home, at home. The old man just had dinner and was playing chess alone in the tea room. You came to accompany him." Gu The old man has a weird temper, and many important people can't see him even though they have appointments, but Li Lei, a junior, has caught his attention somehow, and he can come and see him anytime.

Li Lei took Xia Ling in.

In the tea room, an old man in his seventies was playing chess alone. He was wearing a cotton suit and had a cup of tea in his hand. Li Lei stood by and watched for a while, then picked the right time, and called out affectionately, "Grandpa Gu."

Elder Gu raised his head and saw Li Lei, his eyes showed some kindness.

Seeing Xia Ling again, he was a little surprised: "This girl is...?" A nobleman like Li Lei, who came from a prominent family for many generations, is different from ordinary upstarts, they are very well behaved, even if they are outside No matter how many female companions there are, no matter how messy the play is, they will not lead anyone in front of the elders casually. Those who can be brought here by him must have status.

"My future girlfriend." Li Lei grinned.

"No." Xia Ling immediately clarified.

Mr. Gu's eyes flicked between the two of them, and he smiled cheerfully: "You kid, you brought me to me before you caught up with the girl. Tell me, what do you want Grandpa Gu to do for you?" No wonder This brat would suddenly come to see him, probably because he wanted something from him. Mr. Gu is the brother-in-law of Grandpa Li Lei. He grew up watching Li Lei, so he is very familiar with his nature.

Li Lei's small thoughts were exposed, but he didn't feel embarrassed at all. He climbed up the pole: "Grandpa Gu knows me best. This time I brought you some truffles from abroad. By the way, I would like to ask you for one." thing."

He has always been good at acting cute in front of his elders. At this time, he took out a box like a treasure. The box was made of transparent material, and the inside was vacuum-frozen. A small piece of truffle was wrapped in tin foil and covered with mud.

Mr. Gu's eyes lit up, he took the box, and observed carefully for a moment: "It's an Italian white truffle, and there are such well-preserved white truffles in this season." Italian white truffle is a treasure among truffles, and it is also Mr. Gu's favorite. , but the seasonality is too strong, so it is difficult to eat it in normal times. Now, Li Lei sent a small piece from afar, why not let him be elated?

However, Mr. Gu is a shrewd person: "Boy, why did I hear from your grandpa that you went to Manhattan a few days ago?"

Li Lei smiled innocently and cutely: "After finishing my work in Manhattan, I knew that you love white truffles, so I went to Italy by the way. This thing is precious, and I was afraid that others would not be able to choose it well, so I picked it for you myself."

This nonsense made Xia Ling unable to listen anymore, what is "by the way"? Manhattan is in the United States, and Italy is in Europe. Brother, you are really "smooth" by taking the road...

Mr. Gu couldn't laugh or cry, "You... tell me, what are you asking me for? Say it first, I won't agree to anything that is too outrageous." This kid is so busy with business in Manhattan, he still has time to go to Italy to buy truffles Bribery seems to be asking for a lot. Before he could speak, Mr. Gu quickly blocked his mouth with words.

Li Lei was aggrieved: "Grandpa Gu, do I seem to be such an ignorant person? It's really a trivial matter, a trivial matter. Don't you have a perfume here, the one called 'Star Wing', I found you one Spokesperson."

"Is this a trivial matter?" Mr. Gu almost fainted. They, the Gu family chaebol, are in the perfume business. Two years ago, they made a very perfect perfume, named 'Star Wings'. Anyone who has smelled it knows that this perfume is a miracle, and once it is launched, it will become an extraordinary classic in the history of perfume.

The reason why it has not been listed for two years is because it has not found a suitable image spokesperson.

The Gu family screened all the stars from all over the world, but they couldn't find anyone who could perfectly interpret the "Star Wings" temperament. It can be seen how strict their requirements are and how difficult this task is.

But now, Li Lei opened his mouth just to ask for this endorsement spot?

Old man Gu laughed angrily: "I knew you had no good intentions. This Star Wing is the treasure of my Gu family's town house. Whether your younger brother Gu Xiao and younger sister Gu Yan can continue to have Wanguan family wealth and squander it depends on it. Tell me, what kind of spokesperson have you found for me? If it's unreliable, I won't agree."

Li Lei smiled obsequiously: "My Xiaoling, my future girlfriend, the future queen of Tianyi... You see, if you want status, popularity and popularity, it is suitable to be the spokesperson of Star Wings."

Only then did Xia Ling understand what his real purpose was in bringing her here.

She couldn't help but be touched that when all the announcements were made to terminate her contract, he spent so much effort trying to get the most important announcement from the Gu family. From their conversation, she had already guessed which Gu family this was - the Gu family, a world-famous chaebol with a huge perfume empire. The old man in front of me is probably Gu Lingzhi, the founder of Gu's perfume empire.

Mr. Gu's eyes were a little more serious than before, and he looked at Xia Ling.

"What ability does this little girl have that allows me to hand over such an important endorsement announcement to her?" Mr. Gu said, "Boy from the Li family, don't play tricks with me. I want to hear reliable reasons." He knew Li Lei is not an ordinary playboy. He is truly capable and visionary and can do great things, so he is given a chance to fight for it. If his two useless grandchildren dared to recommend an ordinary-looking little girl for such an important endorsement, he would have turned against her long ago.

Li Lei did not immediately answer Mr. Gu's words, but asked Xia Ling: "Xiao Ling, can you pick it up?"
