Chapter 560: Chapter 562: New Identity (4)
The next day, Xue Feifei still didn’t get up until well past sunrise.
The agent and lawyer that Yu Sixing assigned her had already gone over the contract with her.
She had already been cheated by Yu Sixing once when renting a house, so now she meticulously asked about each clause. The lawyer was very thorough, explaining each point to her.
Overall, Yu Sixing was much more generous than his friend Qin Zhiyou when it came to payments. As long as he was satisfied, he was very giving, willing to provide her with a comfortable environment.
If she wanted a title, he would bring her back to the Yu family the very next day. If she didn’t want a title, he was perfectly happy with that as well.
Naturally, Xue Feifei also made a phone call back to her mother. Earlier, she had said she would return home, but now she had unexpectedly been cast in a film.
Her mother naturally had no objection, as work was a priority. She also called Lu Weixi to let her know that she would be on location filming.
When the call came in, Lu Weixi was in the president’s office of Hanhai.
Although Qin Zhiyou had mentioned the desire for a refurbishment, mainly as a way to draw Lu Weixi into his domain so he could keep an eye on her, there were still aspects of the agreement that needed adjustments as a matter of course.
Firstly, Qin Zhiyou replaced the lounge and showers, saying that going home was an adequate solution, so why linger in the office.
The approach to refurbishments had changed; some environmentally-friendly materials with low levels of formaldehyde were now available. With proper planning, everything could simply be moved in. Even painting, which traditionally required a waiting period, could be done immediately – though the strong odor required windows to be opened for a couple of days before moving in.
Qin Zhiyou would not forcibly keep Lu Weixi with him, as he had at first. She was highly regarded at Lulu, as Siyi’s contract had not yet expired and needed further modifications. Secondly, Qin Zhiyou was her distant relative. Regardless of how far removed their kinship was, or what was brewing between them, Lu Weixi held a higher status than any other person in Lulu.
The CEO practically idolized her. What did it matter if she took a day and a half off for the Qixi Festival? As long as Hanhai awarded more projects to Lulu, she could take off every day if she wanted.
But while the CEO was indulgent, and Qin Zhiyou was assertive, she didn’t want to lose her job. Of course, Lu Weixi didn’t need to go hunting for clients at this time. Since Siyi’s case highlighted Lulu as a design institute, many people flocked to her, begging her to take on their projects.
Siyi’s case had kept her busy for a while, but not anymore. Lu Weixi was not so arrogant as to only prioritize projects from Siyi and Qin Zhiyou, ignoring all others. If a suitable project came along, she would take it.
That was what she was doing today, formally suited, accompanying Xiaochen and Xiaoqian to measure the site. Qin Zhiyou stood aside with a stern expression on his face, clearly displeased. For every comment that Lu Weixi made, he retorted thrice.
On the surface, Qin Zhiyou seemed to be stern with Lu Weixi, with not a hint of closeness or intimacy.
Indeed, he was annoyed. It was just a bedroom remodel, a place both of them would live in. Why did they need third-party input on their preferred type of bed, walls, and curtains?
Moreover, today was quite unusual. Normally, Secretary Wang always followed closely. Today, after Qin Zhiyou assigned Lu Weixi’s reception task, Secretary Wang claimed to have another appointment entertaining the model district personnel and sent another assistant to help out instead.
