"How could this happen?" Liao Wanhua hurriedly asked for confirmation. "The owner of this villa didn't choose me? I need to talk to him face to face. I will do my best to satisfy him with whatever style he wants and make sure he's satisfied."

"Teacher Liao, please listen to me..."

"Wait a minute, I want to ask who the homeowner chose?"

"Yes...it's Teacher Xia."

Liao Wanhua was shocked and angry. She looked at the calm Xia Xi and almost lost control of her expression. Realizing that the camera was recording her at all times, she forced a smile and said, "I still want to talk to the owner of the villa. The director also said it was a two-way choice, which proves that it can be discussed."

"Teacher Liao, the owner of the villa insisted on using Teacher Xia." The staff member responsible for communicating between the two parties smiled apologetically at Liao Wanhua.

Liao Wanhua was completely petrified. How could she have expected that Xia Xi, the least competitive of the few people, would snatch the house she had her eye on? Liao Wanhua was unwilling to accept this: "I haven't even communicated with the owner of the villa, how can I decide?"

The staff had no choice but to ask the director for permission. After getting permission, they arranged for Liao Wanhua to meet with the villa owner.

Liao Wanhua immediately went to another meeting room, and one of the cameramen followed her.

Pushing open the door of the conference room, a man in a black suit was seen sitting at the conference table. When he heard the door open, he looked up, as if a little surprised, and his brows froze for two seconds.

He thought he would meet Xia Xi.

A hint of confusion appeared in Xu Yanfeng's eyes. He said to choose Xia Xi. Did the staff misunderstand him?

Liao Wanhua quickly adjusted her expression, smiled appropriately, walked over, and extended a hand: "Hello, may I know your name? I'm Liao Wanhua, the lead designer at Yunzhu Design Company."

"Hello, please tell me your surname is Xu." Xu Yanfeng nodded and shook hands with her politely.

"Mr. Xu, I've seen your villa. The layout is very good. Whatever style you want, I'm confident I can recreate it exactly as you want." Liao Wanhua said sincerely, "Please give me a chance."

"I don't know what style I want to change to." said Xu Yanfeng.

Liao Wanhua didn't understand.

Xu Yanfeng: "It depends on what my wife thinks. She doesn't like the current style very much."

Liao Wanhua was stunned for a moment, then realized that the man in front of her was a good husband who loved his wife. "You can call your wife and I will talk to her. I won't let you down."

"Sorry, I already have a designer I like." Xu Yanfeng said slowly.

Liao Wanhua felt aggrieved, her chest clenched and she could barely breathe. She spoke for a long time, her mouth dry and her tongue parched, but the other party remained unmoved. She continued to greet him with a smile, trying to persuade him to change his mind: "Mr. Xu, I hope you will reconsider. I can..."

Xu Yanfeng raised his wrist to look at his watch, pursed his lips, and said calmly, "Sorry, I'm short on time, and I have other things to do next."

Liao Wanhua left the meeting room dejectedly, feeling a little uneasy. However, in front of the camera, she didn't show any dissatisfaction. She shrugged self-deprecatingly, "Perhaps I just don't meet Mr. Xu's eyes."

The houses selected by several other designers were also changed. After coordination, the villa was finally renovated by Xia Xi, and the house originally selected by Xia Xi fell into the hands of Liao Wanhua.

Next, you need to communicate with the homeowner, visit the site, issue a design plan, and carry out construction and renovation... It's similar to the normal work process.

Under the guidance of the staff, Xia Xi came to the outside of a meeting room. Her breathing became a little rapid. She grasped the door handle and slowly pushed it open. The man sitting there was wearing the white shirt and black suit that she was familiar with. When they parted at the door of his house in the morning, he was still dressed at home, with his hair hanging down softly, looking lazy and casual. His eyes were neatly combed and he had an extraordinary temperament.

Even though Xia Xi had prepared herself mentally, she still couldn't remain calm when she saw him here. Her heart was pounding. She didn't even know how she walked in. Maybe she was at fault.

Xu Yanfeng actually attended in person!

Wouldn't he find someone else to replace her? Just like when he asked Guan He to pretend to be the landlord and trick her into signing the contract... No, this wasn't a question of pretending or not. Why did he sign up for this variety show?

The chair opposite Xu Yanfeng had been pulled out. It was where Liao Wanhua had sat before. Xia Xi sat down on it, clasped her hands together on the conference table, and stared blankly at Xu Yanfeng.

How should I greet him? Should I pretend I don't know him? That would be too weird.

But if they don't act, won't their relationship be exposed?

Xia Xi's mind was in a mess. Finally, when Xu Yanfeng smiled at her, she couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "What's going on? Why are you here?"

After asking, Xia Xi realized that the camera was facing them. She was about to collapse. She scratched her head and turned to the cameraman and said, "Cut this part out." She emphasized again, "It must be cut out."

Cameraman: “…”

Xu Yanfeng coughed lightly and spoke concisely: "This program is sponsored by Xu's group, don't you know? I am here to support it as a representative of Xu's group." He spoke in a very high-sounding manner, as if he appeared here without any selfish motives.

Xia Xi was stunned.

She was pushed by Lu Mingji to participate in a variety show without knowing why, so she had to investigate the sponsors of the show? Of course she didn't pay attention!

Xia Xi stared at Xu Yanfeng and muttered, "Is there no one left in your Xu Corporation? We need you, the president, to come and support the show as a representative."

Xu Yanfeng smiled and continued to rationalize his actions: "As a boss, I must pay attention to the programs I sponsor. I can't just leave everything to my subordinates."
