Chapter 465: Tang Yanqi Is Dead, I Am Su Anle (5)
Even so, Su Anle wrote down a few place names on a piece of paper and handed it to Li Weiwei: "If you want to explore, go to these places. They are quite representative of B City."
Li Weiwei, being very simple, took the note and said with a smile, "Sister Su, you’re really familiar with B City! Have you lived here before?"
Su Anle was slightly taken aback but quickly regained her composure: "I did some research."
"You did the research but didn’t go exploring with me. Sister Su, you’re such a strange person."
"Alright, go on quickly and come back early, don’t be too late."
Li Weiwei left with the note from Su Anle. Su Anle buried herself in her computer, reviewed the translation draft for tomorrow’s meeting, and then put on her headphones to practice her listening skills.
Her knack for languages is well acknowledged, but even the highest talent requires hard training.
From the time her injury healed until now, Su Anle couldn’t remember how many headphones she had worn out. To get into the Translation Institute, she listened while walking, on the bus, cooking, and eating. Sometimes she even fell asleep listening at night.
By evening, as the sunset painted the sky red, Su Anle finally took off her headphones, looked at the manuscript paper filled with writing in front of her, and stood up to stretch her legs.
She loves languages, and she loves translation. This job makes her much happier compared to when she was in the finance department of Shengshi Group.
Checking the time, it was already past six, and Li Weiwei hadn’t returned yet. Su Anle sent her a message and went to the hotel restaurant for dinner.
There were three meals a day here, though they were all not very tasty buffets.
Su Anle didn’t mind, casually ate something to fill her stomach, and went upstairs.
"Sister Su, where did you go?"
Upon opening the door, she saw Li Weiwei lying on her bed, surrounded by many bags, clearly having gone on a shopping spree.
"I went for dinner. What about you? Have you eaten?"
"I have, I ate outside. Sister Su, you know what, I had such good luck today. I passed by S&T and found they had an event. Spend over two thousand and get a five hundred discount."
"So you bought a lot?"
"Of course, I really like this brand. It has a great design and good quality. The key is it’s not expensive, or rather, it offers a range of prices. Isn’t that strange? They have items that cost tens of thousands and others just a few hundred or even tens. I’ve never seen a brand so capricious."
Li Weiwei rambled on; Su Anle wasn’t interested in these things but didn’t interrupt her, letting her talk.
"But I heard that ever since S&T was founded two years ago, although it emerged as a dark horse, it’s actually been operating at a loss. Well, with such a marketing model, how can it not lose money? Even though it’s positioned as a luxury brand, it has low-end products. Who would buy the high-end ones? As for those bigwigs with money to burn, they wouldn’t buy from a brand that has both high-end and low-end, right? It’s no wonder they’re losing money."
Li Weiwei continued to chatter, and finally, Su Anle interjected: "So, is this brand about to go bankrupt?"
If they’ve been losing money all this time, surely they’re about to go under.
"Not at all. Apparently, this brand has strong backing, and the group behind them doesn’t mind such a small loss. Oh, right, S&T originated in B City, and there’s a very powerful group in B City..."
Li Weiwei searched her brain, while four words had already flashed in Su Anle’s mind—Shengshi Group.
