My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection-Chapter 394 - 009: That Heart_3

Chapter 394: 009: That Heart_3
This remark of hers made President Zhang laugh heartily a few times. Yun Qi kept holding her hand, watching her calm demeanor, his eyes filled with unchanged, even deepening, amusement.
Once the group entered the factory to inspect that batch of special soft leather, Yun Qi had to let go of Ye Lingran’s hand to start the negotiations. Ye Lingran seemed in no rush, quietly listening to them talk. She knew that seeing President Zhang today was thanks to Yun Qi — if it weren’t for him, she likely wouldn’t even get a call, let alone a meeting.
While they went to the office to discuss the unit price for the collaboration, Ye Lingran remained silent, quietly sitting in the chair, sipping her hot coffee.
Approaching noon, they finally agreed on the price. Several people signed the contract on the spot. When it was Ye Lingran’s turn, she explained calmly, making President Zhang somewhat touched. Originally, if it had been just her, he would surely raise the unit price, but since he had just negotiated this price with Yun Qi and Ye Lingran is Yun Qi’s fiancée, he couldn’t raise the price significantly in front of Yun Qi — it would be disrespectful. Yun Qi surely would have opinions about it, planning to bring Ye Lingran to discuss the deal himself.
President Zhang was indeed in a difficult spot, but for the long-term development of the company, he didn’t want to offend Yun Qi, so he reluctantly decided to supply ’Story’ at the same price, which made Ye Lingran immensely grateful and she thanked him profusely. After finalizing the contract, Ye Lingran breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing her looking so confident, Yun Qi smiled slightly and took a small sip of his coffee.
In the afternoon, the people from the factory arranged a banquet. Everyone went to the restaurant, and since Yun Qi had an injury and other plans in the afternoon, drinking was not advisable. The factory’s people initially asked Ye Lingran, but before she could speak, Yun Qi interjected, "Sorry, President Zhang, my fiancée might not be able to drink much. She’s famously a lightweight. Thank you for your kind offer."
With Yun Qi saying so, President Zhang didn’t press any further in the afternoon and simply ordered the waiter to bring some drinks over. This meal was enjoyed by everyone.
Since Yun Qi and the others still had plans in the afternoon, Ye Lingran didn’t stay with them and thought of walking separately, taking advantage of the nice weather to stroll around Jiang City, gathering inspiration for her creations.
However, Yun Qi wore a somewhat worried expression but didn’t say much. When the taxi she called arrived, he reminded her, "Stay safe, return to the hotel early tonight, and call me if you need anything."
Ye Lingran nodded with a smile, "Alright." She then waved, opened the taxi door, and got inside.
After watching Ye Lingran’s car leave, Yun Qi finally shifted his gaze back to Shao Min and Chai Jie behind him, "Let’s go!"
"Sure." Shao Min smiled faintly and opened the car door for him.
Ye Lingran drove straight to the most famous trendy street in Jiang City. Because it had snowed, the trees lining the road were covered in white snow. The sunlight gradually melted the snow, causing water droplets to drip continuously, resembling rain. Many people strolling along the road were holding umbrellas.
Ye Lingran looked up, the golden light sparsely shining through the gaps between the leaves, scattering over people, adding a shadowy glow from the leaves. She didn’t walk over but instead took her phone out to snap a few pictures, including some selfies, before leaving for the Macaron-colored leisure tourism area. There she stayed for the entire afternoon until close to six o’clock. Only then did she move to the must-visit Yu Hong Food Street after arriving in Jiang City. It gathered all the city’s special delicacies, offered views of the Jiangcheng River’s nightscape, and had boat tours, making it the perfect choice for foodies and thrill-seekers.
Meanwhile, as soon as it got dark, the street would become bustling. The area would be described as jam-packed, with various foods and even hanfu experience stores. Several arched bridges over the Jiangcheng River were also popular photo spots for many girls.
As soon as Ye Lingran got off the car, she saw the brightly lit banks, several rounds of boats floating on the river, and crowds of people on the shore. The aroma of various foods immediately wafted over, making her stomach rumble, bringing a smile to her face. She went in and first bought a cup of milk tea and a cheese stick. Passing by the bridge, she snapped a few selfies, ultimately selecting the four most exquisite selfies and landscape photos from different places in her album to post on her social media. Her caption was, "Let the eyes linger on the scenery; the sun is warm, the smile is sweet. This is the joy in Jiang City, touching the heart."
