Let's Divorce As Agreed

Chen Xiang’s efficiency at work was remarkable. After receiving the job, he immediately contacted Mr. He, the client. Mr. He informed him that the villa requiring renovation was located in Tongyuan.

They agreed on a meeting time at the villa in Tongyuan for an on-site inspection and measurements.

As Chen Xiang entered Tongyuan, he could hardly believe his eyes. Despite having designed many houses in upscale residential areas before, Tongyuan surpassed them all.

Tongyuan was vast in size, with extensive greenery. The entire residential area was designed with a combination of strip landscaping and courtyard landscaping, blending the characteristics of a southern river town with modern urban styles.

After finally locating the villa the customer mentioned, Chen Xiang met Mr. He, only to find out that he was actually Mr. He Ming.

The two of them quickly got to the point and discussed the project.

As Chen Xiang measured the site, he explained to Mr. He Ming, “Let’s get the design sketches done as soon as possible. After all, it’s for my good friend, and he will have the final say. He prefers a warm and homely feeling.”

“Sure, thank you, Mr. He,” Chen Xiang replied, and he left after inspecting the site.

A few days later, Chen Xiang came up with a rough design sketch and planned to show it to Mr. He Ming for an initial review before proceeding with the detailed drawings.

To his surprise, when Mr. He Ming showed it to Gu Shaoting, he immediately vetoed the design, stating that he didn’t want to live in a cold and soulless house with no personality despite its luxury.

Mr. He Ming conveyed Gu Shaoting’s message tactfully and informed the director at Sunrise, hoping to find a more sensitive designer.

Regrettably. the director had no choice hilt to make the switch. and

conveniently, Shu Pan was available to take over the project. When Chen Xiang handed over the work to her, she expressed her apologies, but Chen Xiang reassured her that as long as the customer was satisfied, it didn’t matter who did the job.

Every customer had different requirements and preferences, and it was impossible to please everyone.

Chen Xiang then briefed Shu Pan on the internal design of the villa and the measurements he had taken. This way, Shu Pan could create initial sketches to show the client, saving time before another on-site inspection.

Based on her experience and the client’s requests, Shu Pan worked diligently to create the design sketches. When she sent the design sketches to the client, she felt anxious throughout the day.

Finally, in the afternoon, good news arrived. The client was very satisfied with the initial draft. Shu Pan could finally relax and made plans to meet the client on-site the next day to discuss the details.

The following day, Shu Pan dressed slightly more formally because of the client meeting. It was one of the few outfits in her wardrobe that she could confidently wear.

She looked at herself in the mirror—her lustrous black hair was tied into a ponytail, a light green top with a frill collar, and white cropped jeans. She wore medium-heeled pumps, giving her a somewhat innocent yet sexy look.

Satisfied with her appearance, Shu Pan grabbed a small leather bag and carried a large fabric bag as she left.

Arriving at the villa’s entrance, she rang the doorbell, and the person who opened the door inside was taken aback.

To her surprise, it was Mr. He Ming, and Shu Pan was equally astonished, unable to close her mouth.

“Shu Pan, why are you here? … Are you the designer responsible for decorating this villa?” Mr. He Ming spoke with a loss of his usual composure.

“Yes, it’s me. What a coincidence! Long time no see, how have you been?” Shu Pan greeted him like an old friend..
