From that Korean city.

Chapter 560 The Late Endorsement
By the bed, Krystal looked at Taozi who was packing her luggage in the corner, and the latter looked back at her.

Although he was surprised, he chose to deny it, "No way, did you see the quarrel between me and Lin Yi just now?"

"No, it's just intuition."

If it were Taozi last year, she would never have said such a thing.

Because at that time, even if she knew it was the truth, she would choose to escape and remain silent, not to mention this kind of despised and intangible illusion.

Taozi's words made Krystal bow her head and smile, then she replied, "It's vacation time, how can I not be happy? And we're staying in such a nice hotel, I can't wait to be happy. I was just mad at Lin Yi just now."

"Okay, I guess I'm just being sensitive."

Pouting, Taozi muttered something and continued, "But Xiujing, actually Oppa just likes to play around sometimes, but he actually takes good care of us."

Seeing that Taozi started speaking for Lin Yi again, Krystal also understood a little bit why Yoona had looked depressed towards him before.

She is too biased towards that person.

What's even more outrageous is that these two people really don't have any problems at all.

On the contrary, I had an affair with her, which is outrageous to think about.

So he nodded and said, "Got it. Don't speak for him anymore. He is always responsible for others' behavior and you are responsible for cleaning up the mess, right?"

"No way."

Taozi, who was criticized, not only did not think there was anything wrong, but was secretly happy about it.

Krystal sighed when she noticed this, "Ah, Sulli, you are hopeless."

After saying that, he put his phone aside and said, "Forget it, you take the luggage, I'm going to wash up."

"Well, you wash first, I'll wash later."

Taozi watched Krystal walk into the bathroom, and happily picked up her phone to take a few pictures of the room. Then she sat cross-legged on the carpet and shared the pictures with Goo Hara and Lee So Hee.

Then he put down his phone and looked at the murals and lattice ceiling in the room that were full of literary atmosphere, while his mind recalled every little detail with Lin Yi.

This time seems to be the last time I took a real trip with Lin Yi, which was in the Alps.

The rest are basically just simple outings, which last only two or three days and cannot be considered tourism at all.

What she didn't know was that the last trip that was originally planned to be just her and Lin Yi was interrupted by Ham Eun-jung.

But now she had become the third party, and had snatched away half of the reward that was supposed to be obtained from Krystal's blackmail.

In other words, she doesn't know it yet. If she knows it later, Taozi will probably smile even more happily.

……

Time flies, and a new day has arrived as the bright sunshine shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows at the edge of the green garden and into the Renaissance Suite of the hotel.

After a while, the curtains were drawn inside the suite.

Taozi, wearing a cute pajamas, stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the beautiful garden view outside the window.

An artistic interweaving of paths, lawns and groves, dotted with hills and ponds.

This scene made her feel extremely comfortable as she just woke up.

She smiled and stretched, "Oh, what a nice day, what a beautiful garden."

Behind her, Krystal, who had also gotten up, saw the beautiful garden and nodded, "It is indeed beautiful."

She had stayed in many hotels before, some with unique scenery.

She had seen those facing the sea, overlooking the city, or in the mountains and forests. But this one was built directly in the city center, with a huge garden, and it was so beautiful. This was the first one so far.

"right."

Happy Taozi stood in front of the window and looked out for a while. After stretching her body and mind a little, she returned to the dressing table and began to prepare for today's outing.

It's just that she was at the peak of her beauty at that time, and she also knew that someone preferred light makeup, so her preparation was just to put on some simple makeup and then packed up her tools.

Then he turned back to look at Krystal, "Xiujing, do you want to put on makeup?"

Behind her, Krystal, who had already washed up, was applying lotion. When she heard Taozi's call, she shook her head and said, "No, I'll just put on some BB cream later."

She is at the peak of her beauty like Taozi, and she doesn't need any makeup to beautify her naturally beautiful face.

The only flaw may be her hairline.

So she just washed her bangs in the bathroom and blow-dried her hair to cover up that little flaw.

After a while, the two people who had finished changing clothes were just about to pack their bags when Taozi's cell phone at the bedside table rang.

I picked it up and saw that it was a call from Lin Yi next door.

The happy Taozi answered the phone directly, "Hello, Oppa."

"Well, have you guys finished it? If you have, go out. But it's neither early nor late now, and I'm too hungry. Do you want to eat something?"

Because of Yoona's decision last night, everyone slept until they woke up naturally today, so the time now is already past 10 o'clock in the morning, stuck between breakfast and lunch, which is awkward.

After hearing Lin Yi's complaints, Taozi immediately smiled and said, "Let's go out and take a look first, Oppa, and buy some snacks first. I'm not very hungry at the moment."

After saying that, she looked at Krystal, who nodded slightly, indicating that she felt the same way. "It's the same with Xiujing. She's not too hungry."

"Okay, let's go out then."

Just like that, after hanging up the phone, Taozi and Krystal picked up their bags, turned around and walked out of the room.

As soon as they walked out the door, they noticed that the door to the next room also opened.

Then Lin Yoona came out first, and when she saw the two of them, she greeted them with a smile.

"Good morning, Sulli, Soojung, how was your rest last night?"

"Morning, Ernie."

"It's very comfortable. The bed and quilt are very soft. I don't get used to the bed."

At this time, Lin Yi, who had arrived late, walked out of the room.

However, unlike the three people outside the door who were in high spirits, he seemed to have not rested well. He yawned, hung his head, and waved to Taozi and the others with a sleepy expression.

"morning."

"Good morning~ Oppa, you didn't get enough rest."

Taozi responded and then showed concern.

"I slept too late. If only I had known..."

"You shouldn't have played games earlier, right? I told you, Teacher Lin, to have a rest early, but you insisted on sitting there playing games. Now you know the consequences, right?"

Lin Yi, who was interrupted, looked at Lin Yoona who spoke with a strange look.

The latter secretly gave someone a warning look, asking him to speak more slowly. She also wanted to save face and maintain her image in front of her two younger sisters.

Krystal just gave a "deserved it" comment. But Taozi reacted belatedly. This scene seemed to have appeared many times in her memory, in the mornings after she stayed in the apartment for several nights.

Thinking of this, she immediately looked away, not daring to look at Yoona.

Then he took Krystal's arm and changed the mood, "Okay, Soojung, it's been a whole night, let's not be angry anymore, let's go shopping and find something delicious."

Lin Yuner also heard this, so she looked at Lin Yi and rolled her eyes charmingly, "Teacher Lin, you really should control your mouth a little. Look, you've made Xiujing angry."

Lin Yi's answer instantly made Krystal, who was about to leave, furious, "Ah, so stingy?"

"Ah~ Dog..."

"Xiujing, don't do this so early in the morning."

"Teacher Lin~"

"Hahaha."

In this way, the first morning of the few people in Florence started with such chaos and noise.

……

……

Florence, the capital of the Renaissance, has always been famous for its rich history, art and culture.

So this place is undoubtedly a dream destination for some travelers who love art and history.

As long as you come here, you can experience in person those artistic masterpieces and architectural wonders that you can only see in books.

It’s just that the city is not very large, so the streets appear narrow and winding. But even so, the ancient buildings and exquisite shops on both sides of the road are full of plus points.

There are still no trees, flowers or plants on both sides of the road. It is bare everywhere, with only the walls of ancient buildings, shop windows and pedestrians.

Here, every street, every bridge, and every church has its own story and history.

Walking on the bluestone slabs of such an ancient street, Taozi, who is full of empathy, also has an outburst of emotion, as if she has grasped the feeling of going back in time and returned to the Renaissance.

Especially when she walked to a small shop selling olive wood, copper pots and other kitchen supplies, her eyes showed surprise. She turned her head to look at Krystal who was taking pictures next to her, and pulled her to the corner of the store to start their check-in journey.

Then he waved to Lin Yuner, "Ouni, let's come over and take a picture."

"Well, here we come."

Lin Yuna, who was eating with Lin Yi, quickly stuffed the unfinished grape bread in her hand into Lin Yi's mouth, then walked towards Taozi with a smile.

At this time, Lin Yi already had a lot of things in his hands, but they were basically food.

There were bread, almond biscuits, and beef tripe buns which he thought were pretty good.

The tripe pieces that have been simmered for several hours are very tasty. Combined with the special sauce here, the originally hard bread becomes moist after being soaked in the sauce, and you can eat it with the soft and tasty tripe.

The taste and texture were so appetizing that even Lin Yi, who had never liked this kind of hamburger, started to like it.

Paul and Bullet behind him did the same, each eating one while walking.

Just when Taozi was pulling Yoona and Krystal to take photos and check in, and went into the shop to buy some small things.

After eating beef tripe buns outside, Lin Yi suddenly received a call, a long-distance call from China.

"Hey, Wuque, what's wrong?"

"Lao Lin, are you with Yuner now?"

Xu Que on the other end of the phone went straight to Lin Yuner as soon as he opened his mouth, which surprised Lin Yi, but he still replied, "Yes, she is with me."

"That's just right. Didn't I mention the endorsement issue of that sports brand to you before?"

As soon as Lin Yi heard Xu Que talking about this, he understood, "What, is there a follow-up?"

Facing Lin Yi's curiosity, Xu Que told him everything he knew, "Well, I mentioned it to them before, but there was no follow-up until noon today, when they suddenly told me that they wanted to communicate with Yoona's team."

"This timeline is a bit weird. I remember you told me about it on Labor Day."

In response, Xu Que continued, "I also felt it was a bit strange, so I asked someone to sound out the truth, and you know what happened."

"Stop keeping us in suspense and tell us now." Lin Yi cursed with a smile.

"It was Yoona's performance at the Paris Fashion Week a few days ago, plus she seemed to have some connections in the fashion circle, so the brand reconsidered it, and then contacted me today."

After saying this, Xu Que's tone was a little awkward, "But now this thing seems to be my credit, which is embarrassing."

In response, Lin Yi said directly, "I know, I know. I'll treat you to a big meal when I get back, okay?"

"I'm not kidding. I'm really ashamed. This is a situation that Yoona created herself. It has nothing to do with me."

Xu Que sighed softly, because he felt that he really did nothing.

He did push it, but it dragged on for several months without any follow-up, so he didn't know how to tell Lin Yi and Lin Yuna later.

As a result, when this happened, I was really embarrassed.

But Lin Yi sees it very clearly that sometimes the first impression or recommendation is the best resume.

As a recommender for a partner in such a large domestic market, the preference rate on the brand side will definitely not be very low.

Those so-called popular images are not that important compared to the background.

So after hearing Xu Que's self-deprecating remarks, he immediately told him his thoughts, and finally asked, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. You must have called me to tell me more than just this situation."

"Oh, yes. I just want you to tell Yoona to go to the headquarters as soon as possible to discuss the details of the contract."

Originally, these documents should have been sent directly to Sammamish, but since Lin Yuna had a recommender this time, the brand simply gave this favor to Xu Que and asked him to handle the follow-up.

"Headquarters?"

Xu Que's answer surprised Lin Yi again. He originally thought that it was just a domestic endorsement, but now it seems that it is more than that.

The next second, Xu Que's answer came, "Yes, starting from the Asia-Pacific region."

Hearing this, Lin Yi turned his head to look at Lin Yuner who was selecting small accessories with Taozi and Krystal, and raised the corner of his mouth, "I know, I'll ask her to fly over later. By the way, are you free?"

"I knew what you would say, so I have booked a flight tonight. I will meet up with Yoona there then."

Lin Yi felt relieved when he heard Xu Que's words, "Thank you."

"Bullshit, hang up, I'm packing my bags and leaving for the airport."

"Ah."

Over at the grocery store, Yoona was still playing, completely unaware that in just a few minutes, Lin Yi had secured a super endorsement for her.

Although the contract has not been signed yet, it is at least 80% to 90% certain.

A new day indeed means a new beginning.

What a great day.
