BXBX NOVEL Chapter 148 - 149 Breach of Contract (1)
Saying it’s a hassle isn’t exactly right. A new client from yesterday decided on her design, and this morning she had arranged to go to the client’s room.
The client is a man in his thirties, not very demanding, but quite generous with payment. The only thing is, every time he looked at her, there was always a sleazy vibe in his eyes, as if he was trying to take advantage of her.
Ever since Lu Weixi joined the workforce, she encountered all kinds of characters, including many men who’d look at her with special intentions. As long as they didn’t act upon them like Manager Liu, she managed to shrug them off with a smile. This man chose high-end residential quarters, a duplex for a hundred thousand per square meter. He kept bragging about his success, but he also complained about the troubles of the affluent, such as the absence of a confidant. Then asked Lu Weixi subtly if she was single.
Lu Weixi didn’t answer any of his personal questions. Xiaochen, who couldn’t bear it any longer, blurted, “Weixi is pursued by many, for instance, the one who drives a Mercedes.”
Lu Weixi was stunned. Quite a few people in her circle drove a Mercedes, but the one Xiaochen probably knew was—Qin Zhiyou. Could she have seen Zhiyou picking her up when her grandfather was ill?
Just as she puzzled over it, Xiaochen looked at her with a knowing gaze, “It’s the one who dresses in white, with a surname Qin or Wang or something. Also a doctor, quite a handsome one.”
Lu Weixi immediately realized she had mistaken Secretary Wang for Qin Zhiyou and even believed Secretary Wang was pursuing her. As for Zhao Zihuan, it’s a non-starter. She didn’t want to start a debate about this in front of the male client and simply replied, “I will tell you more when we get back.” She then directly asked the client, “Do you have any other requirements for the design? If you don’t, I can list down your ideas, make the design drawings as soon as possible. It usually takes seven business days to complete the drawings.”
The male client quickly responded, “I do have some ideas, but I can’t think of them off the top of my head. It’s now lunchtime, it’s been a long morning, how about we go somewhere to chat over lunch?”
Lu Weixi immediately shook her head, “That’s okay, just let us know your thoughts on WeChat. All the designs can be modified before the completion of the project.”
With that said, she turned to Xiaochen and instructed, “Let’s pack up.”
Xiaochen cheerfully agreed, quickly packed her stuff and slung her bag over her shoulder. She looked at Lu Weixi earnestly and said, “Lu, let’s go.”
Lu Weixi nodded slightly, “We’ll be in touch.”
The two basically ignored the client and took the elevator downstairs. The man chased after them to the lobby and tugged at Lu Weixi’s arm. Just as she was about to shake him off, a woman sprang out from nowhere, swinging her bag at the man” “Good for you, Wei Junlai. I knew you were up to no good when you left the house. Be caught with a vixen, huh?”
After a few hits, the woman lowered her bag, looked at Lu Weixi in astonishment, “Weixi?”
Inside a nearby cafe, the man had already left, leaving the woman, Huang Caiwei, who seemed rather pleased talking to Lu Weixi, “We haven’t seen each other in a while, right? Ever since I went abroad during my sophomore year.” Lu Weixi chuckled and sipped her coffee, Huang Caiwei laughed, “It seems I’m running into old acquaintances more frequently. Just a month ago, I bumped into Cai Yiren too..”
