Nan Zhe had originally planned to return to Jiang City tonight. He had an important morning meeting tomorrow.
However, when he heard Shen Yanqing’s proposal, he finally decided to stay in
Huai City for the night and rush back tomorrow morning.
Just like that, the two of them dismissed the manager and the staff in the kitchen and sat in the hall to carefully choose the venue for the proposal.
The reason why she asked Nan Zhe for advice was because Shen Yanqing felt that Nan Zhe definitely knew Nan Ge the best.
Among these options, Nan Zhe should be able to pick the most suitable one.
After almost two hours of picking and choosing, Nan Zhe tapped on a photo on the tablet and said, “How about the amusement park?”
“Among your plans, she’s probably more interested in this.” He did not forget to help plan. “When the time comes, just say that you’ll bring her here for her birthday. When the sky turns dark, just kneel down and propose as the fireworks rise into the sky.”
“Oh right, her birthday happens to be Saturday. There should be a lot of people in the park. To make sure nothing goes wrong, just clear the area. Do you need me to make a call for you?”
Shen Yanqing shook his head. It was just a phone call.
However, he did not approve of clearing the area.
‘When the time comes, there will be no tourists in the park. Isn’t that a little too deliberate?”
Hearing this, Nan Zhe thought for a moment. ‘We can’t do without clearing the area, nor can we clear it… Then find a few fake tourists.”
“Find a few people who know. They won’t ruin the atmosphere.”
“Why don’t you conduct team building for the company?
This was indeed a good idea.
Shen Yanqing nodded and wrote this down.
Nan Zhe looked at the plan carefully and confirmed the process.
After seeing the layout, Nan Zhe raised his eyebrows. He remembered Nan Ge saying that Shen Yanqing had a special physique.
He was allergic to many things.
What was going on with the roses that covered the ground?
He could not help but take another look at the person opposite him and sneered.
The old thing was quite scheming.
The next day, Shen Yanqing and Nan Ge finished dinner outside. The two of them walked slowly on the street arm in arm.
In the past few days, it finally felt like winter in Huai City.
The tip of Nan Ge’s nose was a little red from the cold. She was about to bury her face in the scarf when she smelled the fragrance coming from the side.
It was chestnuts stir-fried with sugar.
She stopped in her tracks, and Shen Yanqing had no choice but to stop.
Following her gaze, Shen Yanqing saw a stall on the street.
There were many people gathered in front of the stall. It seemed like they would have to wait for a while.
“Here’s the car keys.” He took his hand out and placed the keys in her pocket.
Nan Ge looked up at him in surprise. He touched her head. “Wait for me in the car.”
It was too cold outside.
Nan Ge hesitated for a moment, wanting to go with him.
He saw through her at a glance. “You’re wearing too little. You’ll feel terrible if you catch a cold.”
He pushed Nan Ge’s shoulder and she left reluctantly.
After watching her get into the car in front, Shen Yanqing turned around and helped her line up to buy chestnuts.
Shen Yanqing queued for about ten minutes. When it was almost his turn, the city enforcement officer happened to come.
The old man selling chestnuts quickly closed the stall. He ran so fast that his tricycle nearly gave off sparks.
Shen Yanqing and the city enforcement officer were left at a loss.
Fortunately, before the old man left, he said, “Wait for me here.”
After the city enforcement officer left, Shen Yanqing waited for another ten minutes. Finally, he saw the old man riding his tricycle around and coming back.
The city enforcement officer had not gone far.
Shen Yanqing bought the rest of the chestnuts and reminded the old man that the city enforcement officer was across the road and asked him to pack up and go home.
He walked in the direction of the car. The road was not long, but he happened to pass by a bus stop.
When he walked over, the advertisement happened to change. The light reflected on it flashed, causing Shen Yanqing to turn around and take a second look.
With this glance, he stopped.
Coincidentally, a bus stopped at the side. He retreated and made way for the people boarding the bus.
After the pedestrians left, he looked up at the advertisement inside again.
He was the only one standing here. There were actually no particularly eye-catching advertisements inside.
It was just a publicity advertisement for an aquarium in Huai City.
There were a few cartoon animals drawn on the side.
Shen Yanqing took in the black and white penguin in the corner and suddenly had an idea.
That night, Nan Zhe was about to fall asleep when he was suddenly woken up by the phone ringing.
“Hello?” He had a morning temper to begin with. Now that he was patient and did not scold anyone, it was already giving Shen Yanqing face.
“It’s me, Shen Yanqing.” Nan Ge had already gone to bed, and Shen Yanjing had secretly come out to make a call.
“I’m not blind. I can see the caller ID. If you have something to say, say it!”
Nan Zhe could not be bothered to take his phone. He simply turned on the speaker and let the phone fall to the pillow.
“I’m going to change venues.”
“Huh?” Nan Zhe frowned. The next second, he reacted. “Where do you want to change it to? Isn’t the amusement park good?”
“I want to propose in the penguin enclosure at Undersea World.” On the other side, Nan Zhe could not help but scold, “Are you crazy?”
“To us, this place is more meaningful than an amusement park. Besides, Nan Ge told me before that the last time she went to the aquarium was ten years ago.”
Nan Zhe began to gossip. “What’s the meaning behind it? Tell me.”
On the other end of the line, Shen Yanqing chuckled and said in a pleasant voice, “It’s a secret.”
Nan Zhe, “…
The venue was finally decided on the Undersea World.
Assistant Yuan was reliable and quickly brought good news.
There was only one Undersea World with an independent penguin enclosure in Huai City, and it was currently the largest penguin enclosure in the country.
After hearing this news, Shen Yanqing heaved a sigh of relief.
“But President Shen, there’s bad news.” Assistant Yuan held the tablet and looked troubled. Under Shen Yanqing’s fixed gaze, he said, “I’ve communicated with the park. It’s a little difficult to clear the area.”
“They said that if you want the penguin enclosure alone to be cleared, it can be done. But if it’s the entire park… I’m afraid not.”
A new venue had recently been built in the Undersea World and there was an event, so a lot of tickets were sold for Saturday. Most of them were parent and child tickets.
“That’s simple.” Shen Yanqing did not think that it was a troublesome matter. “You can compensate the tourists who have already bought tickets. You can talk to them about the details. As long as you can clear the area, I can accept any outcome.”
With this sentence, Assistant Yuan had nothing to be afraid of.
At the end of the day, it was just that the money was not enough.
Now that they could increase compensation, it was only a matter of time before the aquarium relented.
Assistant Yuan went to talk to them for the entire afternoon. When it was almost time to get off work, he brought Shen Yanqing good news again, The venue was settled.
On the same day, seven of the departments of the Huasheng Group received the news about team building..
