Lu Weixi’s visit to the Siyi Company was a routine business approach, and she brought her team along. Regardless of how many plans she had made beforehand, all of it felt hollow. When it came to discussing the layout of the project, she couldn’t avoid Qin Zhigu.

A real estate project, from its conceptual design to completion, takes more than a year. Especially since the boss, Liao, wanted it to be fully formed and ready for occupation immediately upon completion. Her work with Qin Zhigu was bound to intersect; even after the primary building structure was completed and it was time for her to move to the interior, Qin Zhigu, being the chief architect for the whole project, still had to oversee and approve her work.

Such a long process was bound to be awkward and felt weird to her and Qin Zhigu, even if Qin Zhiyou could let go.

Fortunately, upon arriving at Siyi Company, the first thing Lu Weixi did was introduce her team to Qin Zhigu. She then stated promptly, “During work, I like to focus a hundred percent. If there are any offenses, I hope Mr. Qin will not take it personally.”

With a stern and focused expression, Qin Zhigu nodded, “Of course, work is paramount.” He then instructed his employees, “This is our first project in China, so we must strive to do our best”.

He has numerous projects internationally, and the only reason he was approached for the Siyi Company project was because Liao had discovered his identity as the second son of the Hanhai Group and invited him back to China. But no project is too small or big; once undertaken, every project is equally important.

With the top figures from both teams putting emphasis on the project, progress was rapid. Lu Weixi was relieved; she had been worried that Qin Zhigu might complicate things due to their past, which could adversely affect their work. If he was willing to genuinely focus on their work, it would save her much unnecessary worry.

Qin Zhigu was also stern. He couldn’t deny the occasional melancholy feelings but he refused to let it affect his work.

When the two of them put aside their personal feelings and worked together, they were in perfect sync.

Even though they had been apart for many years and there had been changes in their knowledge, experiences, and temperaments, their aesthetics, ideas, and work methods were still very much alike. Back in university, they had done architectural and interior design projects together and had won awards.

Now, working together as a team and picking up where they left off brought added strength. After a day’s work, even Qin Zhigu’s foreign classmate had to admit, “Simpson, Miss Lu may be young, but she is incredible. We have worked with many teams and world-renowned designers, but none are as compatible as Miss Lu. She can strategize many steps ahead, and it’s always very appropriate.”

Listening to the praises, Qin Zhigu naturally, nodded, “Of course. She is my…” “Your what?” His classmate was a bit puzzled. Apart from their initial meeting at the foundation laying ceremony, today was his first meeting with Lu. Despite this, he felt that his old classmate, Qin, and Lu seemed to have known each other for a long time. They acted quite formally and only spoke about work. Combining this with what Qin Zhimei had said at the foundation-laying ceremony, he couldn’t help but be curious, “Simpson, is she similar to Miss Cai?” – is she your ex-girlfriend?

“How can she be compared with Cai Yiren.” Qin Zhigu shook his head.

Before his classmate could ask anything else, Qin Zhigu put his hand in his pocket and felt a plush little bear. A thought sprang to his mind, and he left to find her..
