Chapter 677: 143: Serious_6

Hearing this, Gu Shufen sighed on the other end of the phone, "Gui Mei, I really can’t help you with this!"

After finishing her sentence, Gu Shufen added, "If I were that powerful, I’d just put you in the position directly, why would you need to go through all those procedures?"

Lin Guimei continued, "Then who can deal with this? Can you introduce me to them?"

Gu Shufen on the other end didn’t immediately reply to Lin Guimei.

The sound of Lin Guimei’s crying came through again, "Shufen, rest assured, if you just agree to introduce me to that person, I’ll find a way to deal with her! Just this once, only this time, if it doesn’t work out this time, I won’t bother you ever again."

"Shufen, after all, we’ve been friends for so many years, I’m begging you..."

Gu Shufen thought for a while before saying, "Alright then, I can arrange a meeting with our President Li for you, but you’ll have to handle the rest on your own."

Lin Guimei was right.

After all, they had been friends for so many years, and during their university days, Lin Guimei had helped her a lot.

This time.

She might as well repay the favor all at once.

Upon hearing this, Lin Guimei was overjoyed.

She was very confident in herself, certain that as long as Gu Shufen was willing to do her this favor, she would be able to grasp the opportunity firmly.

"Yes! Yes!" Lin Guimei stuttered excitedly, "Thank you, Gui Mei."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Shufen immediately contacted Li Ling.

If it were anyone else, Li Ling would have refused straight away.

But this person was after all Gu Shufen.

For no other reason.

Than the fact Gu Shufen’s husband and Li Ling’s husband were business partners.

Li Ling said with a smile, "Shufen, may I ask what the situation with your friend is?"

Gu Shufen replied, "President Li, my friend’s situation is indeed a bit special, but rest assured, she graduated from a key undergraduate program, so her capabilities should be unquestionable."

Hearing this, Li Ling didn’t ask further, and glanced at his watch, "Do you have time at 10:30 tomorrow morning?"

"Yes," Gu Shufen nodded.

Li Ling continued, "Then let’s meet at Imperial City Cafe at 10:30."

"Alright, I’ll bring my friend and wait for you at Imperial City on time."

"Mhm."

The next morning at nine o’clock, Lin Guimei got ready and drove out.

The twenty-ninth day of the lunar year.

Tomorrow would be New Year’s.

Everywhere she went was covered in festive joy.

Lin Guimei arrived at Imperial City Cafe to wait for Gu Shufen and Li Ling.

Gu Shufen arrived at ten o’clock.

The moment she saw Gu Shufen at the entrance of the cafe, Lin Guimei was extremely excited, "Shufen, you’re here."

She was truly afraid that Gu Shufen would abandon her.

In the two days since they last met, Lin Guimei seemed to have aged ten years.

Gu Shufen was taken aback.

Although she knew the Beauty Chant incident would deal a heavy blow to Lin Guimei, she didn’t expect it to ravage her to such an extent.

Gu Shufen nodded, then said, "Gui Mei, don’t worry too much about this, President Li and my husband have a business relationship, they are old acquaintances. As long as you perform well, she should be willing to do me this favor."

In fact, one of the reasons Gu Shufen had been able to join Beauty Chant smoothly was also due to Li Ling’s influence.

Lin Guimei, still somewhat anxious, asked, "Does this President Li have a lot of power?"

"A lot, of course," Gu Shufen replied with a smile, "She’s one of our boss’s favourites, and just a week ago, she accompanied our boss on a business trip to Country P. Moreover, she’s one of the first batch of employees to join Beauty Chant, and with her strong capabilities, she’s now the manager of all the stores in Qing City!"

Hearing this, Lin Guimei breathed a sigh of relief.

The two chatted for a while longer before Gu Shufen stood up and said, "Gui Mei, I’m going to the restroom."

"Alright," Lin Guimei nodded.

After Gu Shufen went to the restroom, Lin Guimei kept her eyes on the cafe’s entrance.

She didn’t miss any of the customers coming in, trying to determine if any of them were the President Li that Gu Shufen had spoken of based on their attire.

10:29 a.m.

A young woman in a black suit walked into the cafe, carrying a bag.

She was very efficient and had a great temperament.

In her hand, she also carried an expensive-looking bag.

Without a doubt, this person had to be the President Li whom Gu Shufen had mentioned.

Lin Guimei looked up, but the next second, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Because she knew this person.

It was the actress who had been acting with Lin Guixiang last time.

Tch!

And here she thought it was President Li herself who had come.

With that thought, Lin Guimei rolled her eyes.

An actress who couldn’t even be considered B-list carrying a bag that cost tens of thousands?

Without thinking, she knew it had to be a fake.

Lin Guimei was speechless.

She didn’t understand how people still bought fakes to satisfy their vanity these days.

Watching Li Ling looking down at her phone, Lin Guimei pushed her coffee toward the edge of the outside table, pushing the cup directly to the edge of the table and deliberately positioning the spoon handle sticking out.

As Li Ling walked, she looked around the cafe for Gu Shufen, but after a full glance around, she couldn’t find Gu Shufen and had to send her a message on WeChat.

The next second,

Li Ling bumped into something.

Bang!

The coffee on the table was knocked over by Li Ling and spilled on the floor.

The glass cup shattered everywhere.

The coffee splashed all over her.

All eyes in the cafe were on Li Ling.

Seeing her like this, Lin Guimei let out a soft laugh.

A materialistic woman carrying a fake!

She deserved it.

With that thought, Li Ling looked down slightly and saw Lin Guimei sitting at the table, "It was you."

Li Ling had a very deep impression of Lin Guimei.

After all, half a month ago, Lin Guimei demanded in front of her that Lin Guixiang bow down to her...

At that time, Li Ling thought that Lin Guimei was not quite right in the head.

Until later, when Lin Guixiang mentioned the name Lin Guimei,

Li Ling indirectly found out about the things that happened before Lin Guixiang started her business and learned that Lin Guixiang and Lin Guimei were sisters. If Lin Guimei had taken her chances well, she would definitely have been the second Zhao Cuinong.

But Lin Guimei was nothing but an ingrate.

After a moment, Li Ling’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she looked at Lin Guimei, "You did that on purpose, didn’t you?"

Lin Guimei said with a smile, "What are you talking about? I don’t understand."

"You deliberately placed the coffee there, so I would bump into it, right?" Li Ling continued.

Lin Guimei looked at Li Ling, "Where I place my coffee is my freedom. What does it have to do with you? Now, the problem you need to face is compensating me for a new cup of coffee!"

Li Ling took out a hundred-yuan bill from her bag and slapped it on the table, "I’ll compensate you for the coffee, but now aren’t you going to compensate me for my bag? This is a classic model of pure Yang leather from Beauty Chant, it’s ruined if it gets wet!"

Lin Guimei scoffed, "Carrying a fake and still dare to come to the cafe to scam! Have you no shame? Do you really think that having an Americano every morning makes you a corporate lady?"

A fake?

Hearing this, the others in the cafe turned to look towards Li Ling.

Lin Guimei was extremely pleased with herself inside.

Her intention was to expose the true face of women like Li Ling in front of everyone.

Just then, Gu Shufen came out of the restroom, saw the scene, was stunned for a moment, and then went straight to Li Ling, "President Li, what happened?"
