The man is Fu Xiang.

After being expelled by Li Yulan, Fu Xiang lost his job and lost face. He did not dare to go out for several days, and could only drink at home.

The more he drank, the more he hated Li Yulan, and he was determined to cause her some trouble.

Fu Xiang originally wanted to set fire to the warehouse of the garment factory, but because of the previous fire, the factory was strict with the warehouse, and he had no chance to do it.

He drank again today, and the wine was so cowardly that he grabbed a knife from his home and came to seek revenge against Li Yulan.

What Fu Xiang didn't expect was that when he sneaked into the garment factory with a knife in his arms, he happened to be seen by Gu Shen who was sitting in the car at the door.

Gu Shen felt that something was wrong when he saw Fu Xiang's appearance. He got out of the car and followed behind him. When he saw his movement, he rushed up and kicked him away.

Seeing the knife that fell out of Fu Xiang's hand, Gu Shen's expression turned cold, and he sneered and kicked Fu Xiang's chest fiercely.

Fu Xiang felt that his entire chest was about to shatter, and the wine was more than half sober.

He resisted the severe pain and looked at Gu Shen, whose face was so cold that he could freeze

. Step by step towards Fu Xiang.

The black leather shoes made a rustling sound when they were rolled on the concrete floor, which made Fu Xiang's heart tighten.

"What do I want to do? What do you want to do with the knife?" Gu Shen gritted his teeth and said word by word.

Gu Shen was really angry and scared at the moment, his eyes fell on Fu Xiang's hand holding the knife before, he directly folded his wrist, and then punched him out of anger.

Being beaten like this, Fu Xiang couldn't help but let out a scream like a pig.

Hearing Fu Xiang's cry of pain, Li Yulan finally reacted. She took a few steps forward to hold Gu Shen, afraid that he would really beat him up.

"Stop calling, I'll go to the police first." Li Yulan said.

City S has opened the 110 alarm service desk at this moment, and Li Yulan turned around and walked to the stairs again, and went to the office to call the police.

Only the cold-faced Gu Shen and the shivering Fu Xiang were left downstairs.

After a while, the police finally appeared at the gate of the garment factory.

Seeing this, Fu Xiang immediately ran over and over to the police, shouting, "Comrade police, save me!" The

police saw the situation and asked, "Who of you called the police just now?"

"It's me." Li Yulan took the initiative to stand up and explain what happened just now.

She doesn't speak fast, her logic is clear, and she quickly explains things clearly.

The policeman looked at Li Yulan and his wife who were standing in front of him, and then glanced at Fu Xiang, who was hiding behind him.

In the end, all three followed the police to the police station.

This kind of thing is actually easy to convict. Fu Xiang is an attempted knife and wounding person and will be detained for five days.

When Fu Xiang heard the result of this treatment, he was very dissatisfied: "Why? I didn't hurt anyone! And I was beaten like this, why shouldn't he be responsible?"

Hearing this, Gu Shen went to Fu Fu. Xiang glanced in the direction.

Facing Gu Shen's gaze, Fu Xiang shook in fear, then closed his mouth.

...

After leaving the police station and getting into the car, Li Yulan began to feel a little scared.

Gu Shen held her trembling hand without saying a word, and drove home in silence.

When the car stopped in the community, Gu Shen suddenly said: "I will rest at home for a few days, don't go to the factory again?"

Li Yulan calmed down and shook her head: "No, the factory can't do without me now. ."

It's only a few days before October, and it's a critical time, and she can't leave.

But when Gu Shen heard this, his face turned cold and he said, "Is it important to you or the factory?"

Li Yulan was stunned and said at a loss, "But...isn't it all right now?" ..."

Gu Shen glanced at her, pursed his lips, didn't speak any more, and got out of the car first.

Li Yulan also jumped out of the car, Xiaobu followed behind him, staring at his tall back in amazement.

She felt that Gu Shen seemed to be a little angry.

In fact, Gu Shen doesn't get angry very often. He has never lost his temper against her after all these years of marriage.

So this was the first time Li Yulan saw him angry with herself.

The specific manifestation of his anger was that he ignored her, and he didn't say a word to her from the way to the house.

It was also during dinner. In the past, the two of them would say a word or two, but today the dinner table is surprisingly quiet. Only the two children, Dabao and Jiang Mo, said a few words from time to time.

Li Yulan felt that she was wrong. After eating, she glanced at Gu Shen who was sitting on the sofa, and sat next to him with Xiaobao in her arms. She wanted to use her daughter to ease the relationship between the two.

Gu Shen had no temper with Xiaobao. Seeing Xiaobao crawling over to his lap, he took the initiative to take her and laughed and teased her.

Li Yulan took the opportunity to talk to him, but he still looked like he didn't pay attention, which made Li Yulan very annoyed.

Dabao's big eyes rolled around his parents, and finally felt that there was something strange between his parents and his mother.

When he grew up and wanted to ask, Jiang Mo covered his mouth and dragged him away.

When she went to bed at night, Li Yulan felt that she had to have a good talk with Gu Shen.

Just when she was waiting eagerly for Gu Shen to return to the room, he didn't even look at himself, and lay down with his back to her!

Li Yulan stared at his back, also became angry, pursed her lips and lay down with her back to him.

After lying down, the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved her, her nose was sore, hot tears fell from the corners of her eyes, and her shoulders trembled.

The man behind him froze for a moment, then sat up and pulled her shoulders.

Li Yulan bit her lip and waved his hand away, but a woman's strength could not compare to a man's.

Gu Shen looked at the tears on her face, pinched her brows helplessly, wiped her tears with her rough fingers, sighed and asked, "Why are you crying?"

Li Yulan felt even more aggrieved when he asked this. , turned around and didn't want to look at him, so he choked and said, "I was afraid, you ignored me, and I ignored you!"

Seeing this, Gu Shen pulled the man into his arms and hugged him tightly.

Li Yulan put her hands on his chest and tried to push him away, but the man was so strong that she couldn't push him away at all.

Li Yulan was so angry that she reached behind and hammered his back, Gu Shen groaned, still hugging her.

"You ignore me, don't hug me, let go!" Li Yulan said angrily.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong." Gu Shen put his big hand behind her head, pressed her head to his shoulder, and apologized in a low voice.

"It was your fault." Li Yulan choked out.

"...Well, it's all my fault." Gu Shen said helplessly.

He was really eaten by her.

...

The next day, Gu Shen still sent Li Yulan to work in a garment factory.

The car stopped at the entrance of the garment factory, and Li Yulan unbuckled her seat belt and prepared to get out of the car.

Gu Shen glanced at her and said, "I'll come to pick you up early this afternoon."

"Oh." Li Yulan got out of the car neatly without any pause.

Oh? Gu Shen was about to laugh at her cold tone.

Li Yulan fell asleep while crying last night. Gu Shen thought it was over, but she didn't expect her anger to go away today.

Seeing Li Yulan's unrepentant back, Gu Shen reached out and honked the horn.

Li Yulan paused when she heard the harsh horn sound, she looked back suspiciously, and saw Gu Shen lowered the car window and beckoned to her.

Li Yulan really thought he had something to do, and turned towards him.

"What's the matter?" Li Yulan asked while stopping outside the car window.

But as soon as she lowered her head, she saw Gu Shen stretched out his long hands, pressed her head against the back of her neck and pushed her head into the car window, then leaned over and kissed her face.

"It's alright, let's work hard." He said calmly after kissing.

Li Yulan was stunned, her face blushed when she reacted, and she was so angry that she wanted to scratch his smiling face.

"Gu Shen!" She took two steps back, stared at him with a pair of eyes, gritted her teeth and called his name.

"Well, I'm leaving." Gu Shen started the car as if nothing.

Looking at the back of the car that drove away, Li Yulan stomped her feet in anger. Is there something wrong with this person? How dare he dare in such broad daylight!

When she returned to her office, Li Yulan calmed down after drinking two sips of water.

But after sitting down, he couldn't help but scolded Gu Shen in his heart.

But the busy work quickly made her forget these things, until Dong Fengmao knocked on the door of Li Yulan's office with a face ashamed.

Looking at the expression on Dong Fengmao's face, Li Yulan guessed why he came.

"Director Li, I just found out what happened yesterday." Dong Fengmao pursed his lips and sighed again, "That child Fu Xiang has no parents or parents since he was a child. I spoiled him."

Li Yulan just thought Speaking, Dong Fengmao waved his hand to stop her.

"There's nothing pitiful about him being detained for doing such a thing." Dong Fengmao added, "It's just that I don't have the face to stay in the factory anymore... I'm here today to tell you about this matter. Yes ."

Li Yumei frowned and said, "Mr. Dong, Fu Xiang is Fu Xiang, you are you, you don't need to take the responsibility on yourself."

Dong Fengmao shook his head: "It's my fault, so For many years, I have been blamed for being too accustomed to the people in the factory. Now that I am gone, it is just a reminder to them. Director Li, you are a good factory manager, and I believe you will be able to make a career in the future. "

Li Yulan saw that Dong Fengmao had decided to leave, so she didn't open her mouth to persuade him.

She personally accompanied Dong Fengmao to the financial department, and after his refusal, she still paid him half a month's salary, and then personally sent the old man to the door of the garment factory.

When the old factory manager left, he couldn't help but look back at the factory where he had struggled for most of his life, with a bit of reluctance in his eyes.

But he still turned around firmly and walked away one step at a time.

Li Yulan couldn't help but sighed as she looked at his somewhat hunched back.

Five days later, Fu Xiang was also released from the detention center.

When he came back, he happened to see Gu Shen, who had come to see Li Yulan, and immediately like a mouse seeing a cat, he shrank his head and slipped away.

Later, Li Yulan heard from others in the factory that Fu Xiang seemed to have moved from his original home near his garment factory, and no one knew where he went.

Fu Xiang's matter is a complete conclusion.

In a blink of an eye, it was already October, and the first batch of goods in Li Yulan's factory was finally driven out.

Now that the goods are available, the next step is to sell them.

You don't have to think about where the clothes are sold. You must try them out in S City first.

It is definitely not realistic to open a clothing store alone.

Their factory produces a lot of clothes. How can they be sold out only by a clothing store they own? It is better to set up a special counter in the shopping mall to save the worry.

So, Li Yulan and Xia Bingbing went straight to an old department store in the city center early in the morning.

This department store is the largest shopping mall in S City, with a full five-story building.

Li Yulan and Xia Bingbing first went to the women's clothing department on the second floor for a walk.

At this time, a few foreign clothing brands also entered the country, including a counter in S City.

The clothes of several foreign clothing brands are really good. After all, they are aimed at international fashion, and there is indeed a big gap between them and local clothing, but the prices are also very expensive.

The rest are some domestic ready-to-wear.

Xia Bingbing had already researched in the mall, and while the two were walking, she and Li Yulan introduced the situation of other ready-to-wear in the mall.

In fact, Xia Bingbing doesn't need to say it, Li Yulan can see it herself.

The ready-to-wear styles hanging on the counter are indeed a bit old-fashioned, plus the prices are expensive, so few people visit.

After walking around, Li Yulan knew something.

She went straight to a teller and asked with a smile, "Hello comrade, I want to find the manager of your mall."

Although the reform and opening up has been implemented, some tellers in the mall are still not too high. Service awareness.

Especially in this women's clothing area, because the price is a little more expensive, the tellers are a little over the top.

However, the teller in front of him looked at Li Yulan's dress, and smiled at her again. His attitude was not so bad, and he happily took the two to the manager of the mall.

The manager of this department store is a man in his thirties.

It is rare to be the manager of such a large department store at this age.

Li Yulan didn't judge people by their appearance. Looking at the name written on his desk, she didn't make any detours and said with a smile: "Hello, Manager Yu. I'm the director of Lanman Garment Factory in this city. My name is Li Yulan. , I came to see you today, mainly because I want to buy a counter in your shopping mall."

"Clothing factory? Are you selling clothing?" Manager Yu asked.

"Yes, currently it mainly sells women's clothing." Li Yulan replied.

"Did you bring any clothes from the factory? I have to take a look first." Manager Yu asked again.

He wasn't trying to embarrass Li Yulan. There were plenty of counters in their shopping malls, but women's clothing really had to be paid attention to.

As the manager of the shopping mall, he is naturally aware that most of the wardrobes currently sold out are loss-making.

Manager Yu has been having headaches for a long time because of the women's clothing department. He wants to pull up the performance of the women's clothing department, so he has to be more careful in the selection of products.

If Li Yulan's clothes in the factory were too bad, Manager Yu would have to persuade her to give up.

First, it will lower the level of their shopping malls, and second, it is for the good of Li Yulan and the others. After all, it is also a large expense to pay for the counter every month.

"Of course I did." Li Yulan stood up, pointed to herself and Xia Bingbing, and said, "It's on us."

Manager Yu looked at the clothes on both of them with surprise. .

Manager Yu actually noticed the clothes on Li Yulan and Xia Bingbing for a long time, but he didn't think that it was the clothes produced in their own factory, and thought they bought them from other places.

But this is not to blame for Manager Yu. He has seen many clothing factories, but he has never seen a factory that can design such beautiful clothes.

If such beautiful clothes can be sold in their mall... Manager Yu's

eyes flashed.

"I wonder if such clothes can be sold in your mall?" Li Yulan asked.

Manager Yu nodded hurriedly: "Of course, Director Li, we can sign the contract now, and I will give you the best counter on the second floor!"

Seeing that things went smoothly, Li Yulan was relieved.

The two immediately started talking about the contract.

Li Yulan carefully looked at every clause in the contract. Thanks to the experience of copying the contract for Gu Shen before, Li Yulan was not so blind to the contract.

After confirming that there was no problem with the contract, Li Yulan readily signed it.

"Then I will immediately ask someone to clean up the counter. If you want, it can be opened today." Manager Yu said.

The counter is not so delicate at the moment, and the women's clothing department is also here, which is a unified place to hang clothes, plus a signboard.

Li Yulan's clothing factory just started, and she didn't think too much about it, so she simply followed the trend.

Since Manager Yu said that it could be used immediately, Li Yulan was not polite, and said to him with a smile: "Can I borrow the phone number of the shopping mall, I will tell the factory."

"Please." Manager Yu smiled. He pointed to the phone on his desk.

Li Yulan quickly called the factory.

It was Liang Xiaoshi who answered the phone, and Li Yulan told him to transfer the goods directly to the department store. By the way, he called the two articulate female workers in the factory.

The truck on the other side of the factory has been in contact with them for a long time, so that as long as the negotiation is settled, the goods can be dispatched immediately.

As for the two female workers in the factory, Xia Bingbing proposed to Li Yulan.

Xia Bingbing felt that the attitude of the tellers in the shopping malls is not very good. A large part of it is actually because of the bad attitude of the tellers. They wanted to buy, but were persuaded to quit.

Li Yulan thought it made sense, so she directly picked two female workers who could speak and be lively in the factory, and asked them to come directly to the counter to sell goods.

Regarding the female worker, Li Yulan and Manager Yu just talked about it, and the other party also agreed.

After confirming with Liang Xiaoshi across the phone that there was no problem, Li Yulan hung up the phone.

"Then I would like to thank Manager Yu, and we will wait outside." Li Yulan said.

Manager Yu nodded with a smile, and then suddenly said, "Director Li, have we met before?"

Li Yulan had no impression of Manager Yu. Just as she was about to speak, she saw that Manager Yu seemed to have thought of something and said excitedly. : "By the way, I remembered, did you open the Xiaolan tailor shop before?"

Li Yulan nodded with a smile.

"I'll say you look familiar! I went to your store with my wife before, and she likes the clothes you make. If she knew that the clothes from the clothing factory you are running are still selling in our mall, she would be the first to rush. Come and buy." Manager Yu said.
