Chapter 219: Renting an Office

Mo Yu took off her hat in embarrassment. “It’s too hot today. I’m sunproofing.”
She pointed at the sky, and then they all fell silent. Where would the sun come from on a cloudy day?
However, the security officer still sent Mo Yu into the Gu Corporation building very tactfully and respectfully sent her to the elevator.
Mo Yu leaned her head against the elevator and felt that it was really too embarrassing just now.
She helplessly tidied her hair again. She could not look like this when she saw Gu Lian later.
The front desk had already told Gu Lian that she had gone upstairs. Gu Lian also asked his secretary to prepare caramel macchiatos.
“President, Madam is here.”
The secretary knocked on the door and let Mo Yu in.
Seeing her outfit, Gu Lian was a little surprised. “You went for exercise? Running?”
Mo Yu only smiled. She did not want to mention this matter at all.
Gu Lian saw that she was still holding a mask and sunglasses in her hand and roughly guessed that she had gone to meet Wang Li and the others.
The corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously. Seeing his expression, Mo Yu became even more embarrassed.
“Aiya, 1 was just meeting Wang Li and the others to discuss online sales. This outfit is just in case.”
Gu Lian pushed the coffee in front of her and asked, “So you felt that it was inconvenient to meet and decided to rent an office building?”
Mo Yu nodded fiercely and took a big sip of caramel macchiato.
“There are too many people in the restaurant. It’s not good to be secretly photographed or to leak business secrets, so I want to rent an office first. We’ll talk about it when Llife expands.”
Mo Yu had thought it through very clearly. Now that there were few people, she would just start a studio. The rent was cheap and there was privacy protection. However, Gu Lian still broke her fantasy. “The office buildings in the city center are rented on a floor to floor basis. Even if two companies split the together, each company has at least ten offices. The four of you have an average of two offices per person, plus two extra. And the rent…”
Although Gu Lian did not mention the rent, Mo Yu could tell that the rent was definitely not low.
“Dear husband!” Mo Yu had a fawning expression. “Then can no company rent me a small office?”
Gu Lian raised his eyebrows. “You only need an office? No other requests?”
When Mo Yu saw that Gu Lian was willing to help, she quickly leaned over. “There are still requirements. The renovation can’t be bad. The internet speed has to be fast, and security management has to be good. It’s best if there are 24-hour security officers patrolling. The door has to be strict. It would be even better if there’s an employees’ restaurant downstairs like the Gu Corporation and various high-end restaurants beside it.”
Mo Yu revealed a big smile again. “The rent for an office shouldn’t be too expensive, right?”
Gu Lian looked at her expression and almost laughed out loud, but he held it in. “The rent can’t be high, the office environment has to be good, and there are requirements for the location…”
Mo Yu widened her eyes and tilted her head, looking at Gu Lian expectantly.
Gu Lian coughed. “There’s a small conference room next to my office that’s temporarily unused. I’ll rent it to you.”
“What?” Mo Yu jumped up in shock.
Gu Lian continued, “The Gu Corporation is located in a good place, the environment is good, and the security measures are in place. There are many delicious food beside it. Moreover, 1 can rent you an office. 1 won’t take the money for the internet, electricity, and water.”
“No, how can this do?” Mo Yu quickly stopped him. “How can we work in the Gu Corporation?”
Gu Lian explained, “It’s not working in the Gu Corporation. The meeting room is rented to you. You have to pay.”
Mo Yu still waved her hand repeatedly. “That’s not appropriate either. Even if you rent it to us, won’t we still be working at the Gu Corporation? No, no!” Although her relationship with Gu Lian was not bad now, she wandered in front of the big boss every day. She might anger him one day.
If the cannon fodder plot started again, wouldn’t she be asking for trouble? “Then do you have a more suitable place?” Gu Lian picked up his coffee and took a sip, not looking at Mo Yu.
“You don’t want others to know that you’re the mastermind behind Llife, right? It’s not convenient for you to have a meeting now. You can’t let them go to your house for a meeting, right? Or do you still want to go to Wang Li’s apartment?”
Thinking of Wang Li’s apartment, Gu Lian shivered.
If not for the live-stream that day, he would never have stepped into that kind of “small-scale garbage dump.”
Mo Yu was also quite helpless. It was indeed very important to solve the office problem now.
However, she felt a headache just thinking about going to work with Gu Lian every day.
Gu Lian continued, “You can usually do your work at home. You just need to have meetings occasionally. A small meeting room is enough. Moreover, Leo and the others have a collaboration with the Gu Corporation. They won’t make others suspicious if they come here. Moreover, the rent is very low..”
