Our Glamorous Time( A Vsoo adaptation novel by Ding Mo)

Chapter 69(Fish in Troubled Waters)

Jisoo put on a rough stare at him, but he just smiled lightly and wrapped his arms around her to get in the car.

In fact, Taehyung’s English was more than just fluent. In the next two days, he even talked to two companies that made leather goods and casual bags. He didn’t need an interpreter to be present, nor help from Jisoo. He obtained the rights of sales and distribution in Asia from those two companies.

Both of them were local companies and small in scale. One of the companies’ products were not yet sold outside of Italy, and the other was only making their business in central and southern Italy. When approached for cooperation by Korean industry giants like Kim Taehyung, they were ecstatic. The cost obtain the distribution rights was quite decent, and Taehyung therefore signed the contracts for five years at once, and placed two orders that were considered quite substantial for both of the small firms.

When they stepped out of the office building, it was the evening. The town was flooded with lights, and the shops on both sides of the long street were full of world-renowned luxury brands, just like the Avenue of Stars leading to the unknown.

Jisoo held Taehyung’s arm and took a look at the black backpack he used for documents, looking proud, “Well, I feel like I am a nouveau riche today, came to Europe to ‘shop’ and place orders.”

Taehyung gave a faint smile, looking ahead, “One day, Layover’s flagship store will also be opened here.”

He rarely spoke so straight from the heart, leaving Jisoo’s heart beating faster, “Ah,” ambitiously, she pointed at the luxury shops in the front , “my brand in the future, will also reside here! Right next to yours.”

Taehyung paused suddenly, retrieving his arms, grabbing her to his chest and bowed his head to kiss her.

On the streets of an exotic country, there were strangers of different skin colors everywhere. He embraced her, standing in the middle of the rainy street, quietly kissing without any disturbance.

Their dinner was served in a small shop on the street. Red wine and steak, such a simple combination, yet unexpectedly good. Jisoo was a little tipsy, taking out the documents from his bag and looked while asking, “How many contracts have we got?”

“Including the resale franchising agreement from the domestic companies from back home, five, in total,” Taehyung responded.

Jisoo carefully looked through the information on the five companies. From German companies with a turnover of more than 100 million euros, to some local companies in Florence, like the those visited earlier in the day; including both leather goods and leisure bags. Most of them were moderately priced, some were supplied to Taehyung at a very low price. The quality also varied. Some of them were second and third tier products, but just as good as DG, some were in the Italian style, but the workmanship was very rough.

However, they all shared something in common, a long history of at least 50 years or hundreds of years.

This was similar to DG. Jisoo thought in a playful way.

After the dinner, Taehyung held her hand, “Let’s go get the last contract.”

Jisoo was a bit surprised, “This late?”

The nightlife in the town had already begun. The music in the alleys was roaring, and the buskers were in wide-brimmed hats, leaning against the walls to sway their saxophones gracefully.

Taehyung took Jisoo, turning a few corners before finding a small door in the alley where the local residents lived. The grayish-brown stone wall contained a square door, adorned with Chinese lanterns, red and hazy.
