Chapter 425 His First Love

Shu Xue closed the booklet, brushed away her scattered hair, and said, "I didn't look at anyone, I was just flipping through it. I think these designers are all very good, and the worst ones are out of reach."

Qiao Xi smiled and said softly, "I heard from Xingzhou that the designers they invited are all well-known both domestically and internationally, and their designs have their own personal style. If he wants to do a good job on the Future City project, he needs a stunning design drawing. Today's salon is to connect Party A and Party B and put forward Tianyuan Group's demands."

Communication is essential for the birth of a good design.

Shu Xue's red lips parted slightly. "If the designer is confirmed, will Zhou Yu be the one to liaise with him?"

"Yes, the person in charge of this project is Mr. Zhou."

"oh."

Shu Xue held the booklet tightly in her fingers.

What on earth was she hoping for?

Suddenly, the media sitting not far from them became agitated.

"Xie Liuzheng is here!"

"She just returned home after winning the Jane Drew Award! She's the hottest young designer."

"Thank you Liu Zheng!"

The media also pursues popularity.

Xie Liuzheng is not the most experienced among these designers, but he is the most talked about.

In particular, she won the Jane Drew Award in the design industry, becoming the youngest recipient! This award is generally given to women who have made outstanding contributions to architectural design.

Her design style is very individual and unique.

He is admired by many people and is known as an architectural genius.

"Xie Liuzheng, are you planning to compete for the design of Future City after returning to China? How confident are you?"

Qiao Xi and Shu Xue looked over.

A woman wearing a black satin shirt with a scarf collar and an oatmeal-colored ankle-length skirt walked in, carrying a casual suit jacket in her hand.

Very intellectual, capable and elegant.

Her facial features are relaxed, the edges of her face are clear, and her figure is tall and slender.

She is not a stunning beauty at first sight, but she is very attractive. The more you look at her, the more appealing she becomes, and the more you want to explore her.

Facing the media's inquiries, she remained calm and cool.

"Sorry, no interviews."

These media were invited by Tianyuan Group. If the designers are unwilling to be interviewed, they will not force them.

They soon scattered.

Journalists with skills and emotional intelligence can dig out the news they want in this salon, while those who lack the means can only sigh in despair and not even get a sip of soup.

Qiao Xi sighed: "That's Xie Liuzheng."

Even the name exudes a sense of coolness and elegance.

Xie Liuzheng walked over to them, took a cup of freshly ground coffee prepared by the waiter, and started drinking it while leaning against the bar. She seemed very busy, replying to messages on her phone.

Shu Xue's breathing became disordered.

This was not the first time she had seen the name Xie Liuzheng.

In the corner of Zhou Yu's storage room was a box of Xie Liuzheng's design drafts. She also found the design drawings of the house he lived in. It turned out that even that house was decorated according to Xie Liuzheng's design.

There is also Xie Liuzheng’s history records on his mobile phone search interface.

He has been unusually cold these past few days. Is it because... Xie Liuzheng is going back to China?

Because Xie Liuzheng is his first love!

When Shu Xue saw Xie Liuzheng's resume, she couldn't even feel jealous.

It's such a big difference!

She was just a woman that Zhou Yu was reluctant to throw away after playing with her for fun, so he was forced to tie himself to marriage with her.

And between him and Xie Liuzheng, there may have been many irreplaceable memories, which made Zhou Yu, a playboy, unable to help but keep her things out of nostalgia and live in the house she designed.

He and Xie Liuzheng broke up. Who was the one who proposed the breakup?

Perhaps it was because Shu Xue's gaze was too focused, Xie Liuzheng turned his head to look over, his eyes dark and a little indifferent.

Shu Xue immediately avoided the sight.

So embarrassing.

"Shuxue, what's wrong with you?" Qiao Xi looked at her worriedly. "You look terrible. Are you feeling unwell? Why don't we go back first?"

Shu Xue shook her head and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."

"Do you know where the bathroom is? I need you and me..."

"I'll just ask the waiter."

Shu Xue stood up and left.

Qiao Xi pursed her lips and just happened to see Zhou Yu walking in from the entrance. He was dressed very formally and his expression was more serious than usual. He looked really intimidating without even being angry.

Zhou Yu is like this, with a bit more stability.

The staff member walked over to him and reminded him, "Mr. Zhou, most people are here. There are still a few who couldn't make it because of flight delays. They were very sorry and called us to apologize."

"I understand. Please remind everyone to sit down and chat. I will communicate with each table later. They are good at architectural design. I hope this salon can bring them some inspiration."

"Okay, then when will Mr. Huo arrive?"

"He should be a little while longer."

Zhou Yu looked around and saw Qiao Xi sitting alone in a corner. He hurried over and said, "Sister-in-law, why didn't you tell me you were here? Did they put you here?"

Qiao Xi thought he was busy, but he came over to greet her and said, "I just came to join in the fun. Go and do your work and leave me alone."

Shu Xue said she didn't want Zhou Yu to know she was here, so she didn't mention it.

"Okay, take a look around. Huo Er will be here soon, so you two can go together."

"Um."

Qiao Xi smiled gently and nodded.

By this time, the design salon had already begun. Designers from home and abroad had chosen their seats. This was a small circle, and after a while, everyone became familiar with each other. So, they naturally started chatting, without anyone's guidance.

As the person in charge of the organizer, Zhou Yu naturally had to greet each table as a courtesy.

He has a lot of social engagements in his daily life, so he is very comfortable with such occasions.

Qiao Xi watched him from afar as he handled things with ease.

Until he sat on the sofa set with Xie Liuzheng, although Xie Liuzheng looked cold, he was still very professional when chatting with his colleagues, and the discussion was all about academic issues.

The four or five people here were immersed in the design concept proposed by Xie Liuzheng, vying to express their opinions.

The discussion was very heated.

Zhou Yu was holding a cup of coffee and couldn't get a word in, which seemed a bit awkward.

Xie Liuzheng didn't seem to care at all about his identity as the project manager of Tianyuan Group. He leaned casually on the sofa and spoke directly to the key point.

She really has an aura of confidence and independence, and a firm beauty.

Only after a hearty discussion did they have time to pay attention to Zhou Yu.

"Mr. Zhou, do you think the concept Vivian just proposed is in line with the design style of Future City?"

Vivian is Xie Liuzheng's English name, and she is called this name abroad.

Zhou Yu felt a bit complicated. He looked at the relaxed and confident Xie Liuzheng and said, "Ms. Xie is very professional. But the final result depends on the results of your design drafts. Our President Huo will make the final decision."

Xie Liuzheng laughed contentedly, "Mr. Zhou is still the same as before, he has no interest in design."

The designer beside him asked, "Do you two know each other?"

“Not familiar.”

"predecessor."

Xie Liuzheng looked at Zhou Yu openly, "You said you are not familiar with each other, are you afraid that your girlfriend will misunderstand?" She glanced in the direction of Qiao Xi. She saw Zhou Yu talking to that lady very gently just now.

Zhou Yu explained: "That's my sister-in-law, Mr. Huo's wife."

Xie Liuzheng smiled and took a sip of coffee: "Sorry, I haven't been back for a long time, so I don't know a lot of information."

She seemed to have completely let go of the relationship and could even tease her ex like an ordinary friend.

Seeing that they seemed to have some past events to talk about, the designers sitting together tactfully moved their seats and went to other tables to communicate with other designers.

Only Xie Liuzheng and Zhou Yu were left in this sofa area.

Zhou Yu felt as if a heavy stone was pressing down on his heart. Without any expression on his face, he said, "Didn't you say before that you would never return to China in this lifetime? Why are you back?"
