Xu Yanfeng: "If you have any questions, just ask. What does the question mark mean?"
Xia Xi: "Are you serious?"
Xu Yanfeng: "Do you think I'm kidding you? I have to talk to someone here at 2 pm. I only have an hour and a half at noon. Please try to be on time."
Xia Xi edited a message in the dialog box: "If you are not free today, we can make an appointment another time."
Before she could send the message, a message popped up on the other side -
Xu Yanfeng: "I'm flying to London on a business trip tomorrow morning and will be there for a week. If you're not in a hurry, you can wait until I get back from London in a week before discussing it with me."
How can that be possible? Absolutely not!
The progress is already slow enough, and if it goes any further it will take forever to complete this project.
Frantically pressing the delete key, Xia Xi deleted all the text she had just typed in the dialog box and re-edited a new one, which was quite standard: "Okay, see you at noon."
She looked at the time and it was just past ten o'clock, so she started to take the next step, drawing the construction drawings and planning the decoration budget. She was busy until half past eleven, then she packed up and prepared to leave, and called Huang Shiyu.
"Come with me to meet the client. We need to show them the renderings today."
Huang Shiyu: "Um, Sister Xi, is this client you are talking about Senior Xu?"
Xia Xi raised her eyelids slightly and gave her a look that said "Are you talking nonsense?" If it wasn't Xu Yanfeng, who else could she have as a client?
Huang Shiyu smiled meaningfully. Xia Xi frowned, and Huang Shiyu immediately pursed his lips and stopped smiling. He raised a hand and said, "Let me be clear, it's not that I'm lazy and don't want to go. It's certainly good to be able to learn from you, but based on what happened last time, even if I went, Senior Xu would send me away."
Xia Xi: “…”
As if choked, Xia Xi's expression flashed with an unnatural moment: "It's impossible for him to have an attack every time."
Huang Shiyu was so frightened that he bared his teeth. Perhaps only Sister Xi would dare to use the word "sick" to describe Xu Yanfeng: "Okay, I'll go with you."
Xia Xi was still driving, and Huang Shiyu sat in the passenger seat, and they arrived at their destination quietly all the way.
Huang Shiyu only knew to follow Xia Xi. She had no idea where they were going to meet the client. When the car stopped, she looked up and saw the glittering golden sign of "Xiting Hotel". She asked uncertainly, "Are we meeting the client here?"
Xia Xi said seriously: "Is there a problem? There is a conference room in the hotel."
"No problem!" Huang Shiyu hurriedly shook his head, embarrassed to say that he had misunderstood.
The hotel valet came to take the car keys and drove the car to the parking lot. The two walked through the magnificent lobby, walked into the elevator, pressed the button for the 33rd floor, and the elevator went up, bringing a slight feeling of dizziness.
Xia Xi held the handrail beside her and stared at the numbers jumping above in a daze. Every time she came here, she would uncontrollably think of her first time with Xu Yanfeng. She wondered if he felt the same way.
"Sister Xi, we're here."
Huang Shiyu stood behind Xia Xi. The elevator reached the 33rd floor, and with a "ding" sound, the door slowly opened. Xia Xi looked stunned and didn't move, so Huang Shiyu had to remind her.
Xia Xi came back to her senses, tightened her grip on the bag, and stepped out of the elevator.
Huang Shiyu was here for the first time and looked around curiously. She soon discovered the crux of the matter. She looked at Xia Xi's profile and whispered, "Sister Xi, are you sure there is a conference room on this floor? Why does it look like a suite?"
Xia Xi: "There is a conference room in the suite."
Huang Shiyu: “Oh.”
Arriving outside Suite 3302, Xia Xi took a deep breath, raised her hand to knock on the door, and waited anxiously. Since their reunion, she had to prepare herself mentally every time she saw Xu Yanfeng.
The next second, the two doors in front of them were pulled open from the inside, as if someone was waiting behind them. Before they could see who it was, they heard a deep male voice coming from the crack of the door: "Mr. Xia really knows how to keep time. Not too early, not too late, exactly half past twelve."
As the gap in the door opened wider and wider, the person behind the door came into view. Xu Yanfeng was wearing a white bathrobe, with half-dry hair hanging in front of his forehead. Compared to the cold and distant appearance he had shown in the past when appearing in front of people, he looked quite harmless at this moment.
Xia Xi was petrified.
The way the door was opened to receive customers gave her the illusion that she had mistakenly entered a certain club.
Xu Yanfeng suddenly realized that the person outside the door was not only Xia Xi, but also her assistant. He immediately turned his back and pulled up the crossed lapels in front of his chest, for fear of being seen naked.
Huang Shiyu realized it later and turned his back, fearing that he would offend the customers.
Xia Xi tried to calm down and suggested, "Why don't you change your clothes first?"
Without turning around, the man slammed both doors shut. The sound of hurried footsteps drifted away from behind the doors, giving the impression of someone fleeing in panic. Xia Xi suddenly laughed. This was a strangely amusing moment.
Huang Shiyu glanced at her, feeling a little aggrieved. "I told you I shouldn't have come. Look, Senior Xu took a shower just to see you, and dressed up like a handsome man emerging from the bath to greet you. But my appearance ruined everything."
She felt like a sinner.
The corners of Xia Xi's mouth twitched, and she was about to lose her composure. "I never realized you were so gossipy before."
Huang Shiyu said righteously: "I am not gossiping, what I said is the truth."
The door of the suite opened again. Xu Yanfeng was wearing a neatly ironed white shirt and iron-gray trousers wrapped around his long legs. Although his hair was still a little wet, his temperament was completely different from before.
Just now he was a puppy drenched by the rain, but now he is the big devil who controls the wind and rain.
"Come in." Xu Yanfeng's face showed no emotion. After Xia Xi walked in, he instructed Huang Shiyu who was following behind, "My assistant is in the conference room on the 12th floor. Go find him and ask him to bring up a copy of the contract. He knows which one it is."
