Chapter 2647 - 451: Moving the Children’s Room Next to the Master Bedroom

Bai Qingling thought back over what she’d just said and realized she hadn’t mentioned Chu Junming.

She smiled and said, "No, Chu Junming’s not coming."

Her voice paused slightly, then she added, "He’s busy these days. He left the villa renovation to me."

"Qingling... okay, I’ll bring the drawings at noon."

Jian Ye wanted to say something but stopped.

In the end, what he wanted to ask never made it out over the phone.

"What’s wrong, couldn’t get an appointment?"

As soon as Lin Qiang walked into Jian Ye’s office, he saw him frowning, looking downright unhappy.

He knocked twice on the desk with the back of his hand, then just sat right down on it.

Behind the desk, Jian Ye still had his phone pinched in one hand, and the drawings he’d finished this morning were spread out on the desk in front of him.

Since the clients were Chu Junming and Feng Yize, Jian Ye hadn’t dared slack off in the slightest, and his speed was top-notch as well.

"I got the appointment."

He lifted his head and gave Lin Qiang a faint glance, then lowered it again to look at the drawings in front of him.

Lin Qiang raised a brow. "You got it, and you still look like this?"

His gaze swept over the drawings on the desk. "Is Young Master Chu going to be there?"

Otherwise, what’s with staring at the drawings like he’s trying to burn a hole through them.

"No."

Jian Ye raised a hand to touch his earring. "Qingling said Chu Junming handed the villa renovation over to her to oversee."

Lin Qiang practically slid right off the desk.

...

As Bai Qingling walked out of the office building, she saw Feng Yize waiting by the roadside.

Today he was driving Ye Zhan’s Range Rover.

From quite a distance away, Feng Yize waved at Bai Qingling, and she flashed him a bright smile in return.

"Are you coming back to the company this afternoon?"

"Yeah."

Feng Yize tilted his head slightly, signaling for her to get in the car.

In the afternoon, he’d drive her back to work.

As soon as Bai Qingling got in, she said to Feng Yize, "I asked Jian Ye to bring the renovation drawings for the villa. Do you want to call Qinghuan over too, have her help give you some input later?"

Knowing that Feng Yize was in G City because of Qinghuan, Qingling suggested it with a smile in her eyes.

A flicker of surprise crossed Feng Yize’s face. Earlier, when Qingling said they’d have lunch together at noon, she hadn’t mentioned Jian Ye.

He knew about Jian Ye; Third Brother had told him.

"Qingling, Jian Ye finished the drawings this fast, but why didn’t he contact me?"

Feng Yize frowned slightly.

Bai Qingling pulled the seat belt over and buckled it. "Chu Junming said he’s going to be really busy for a while and can’t mind the villa side of things. He’s also worried you’ll decorate it to look exactly like your place, so he asked me to keep an eye on it for him... just then Jian Ye called, so I asked him to bring the drawings."

Feng Yize even forgot to fasten his own seat belt.

Third Brother’s worried he’ll decorate Third Brother’s villa to look exactly like his own?

Fine, whatever Third Brother says goes.

"I see. Qinghuan’s been doodling for my mom this morning; they’re definitely together right now. After we look over the drawings, I’ll have her take a look later."

Feng Yize thought for a moment and said.

Bai Qingling understood. "Okay, let’s do that then."

Yi Pin Xuan Pavilion.

Jian Ye arrived a bit early.

When he saw that Bai Qingling wasn’t alone, and that Feng Yize was walking in behind her—

The smile on Jian Ye’s face froze for a second, then quickly returned as he stepped out from his seat to greet them.

"Qingling, Young Master Feng."

After the pleasantries, Jian Ye moved to pull out a chair for Bai Qingling, but Feng Yize beat him to it.

"Thanks."

Bai Qingling thanked Feng Yize and sat down.

Jian Ye went back to his seat and called the waiter in. He said to Qingling and Feng Yize, "Qingling, Young Master Feng, you two go ahead and order. I brought the drawings, we can look them over while we eat."

"Qingling, you order."

Feng Yize pushed the menu over to Qingling, his peach blossom eyes shifting to the drawings Jian Ye had brought.

Jian Ye handed the drawings to him.

Qingling knew Yi Pin Xuan so well she didn’t even need a menu, and on her own turf there was no way she’d let Jian Ye pick up the tab for this meal.

She didn’t even look at the menu and passed it straight to Jian Ye. "You want to treat us, then next time pick another place. If I let you pay here, that’d make me look really bad."

"Alright, I’ll treat you next time."

It seemed Jian Ye missed a word.

He’d gone straight to "treat Bai Qingling."

Head bent over the drawings, Feng Yize didn’t care that he’d been left out. He simply pointed at the drawings and said to Qingling, "I’ll go with this style for the renovation. Qingling, which one do you and Third Brother want?"

Whether intentional or not—

That "you and Third Brother" of his landed in Jian Ye’s ears with a different flavor.

He lifted his head to look at Bai Qingling and forgot to order.

Bai Qingling saw him staring blankly at her and urged him again to order first, then she turned her head and looked over the drawings with Feng Yize.

"What kind of style does your Third Brother like?"

There was no questioning Jian Ye’s professional skills.

All of the renderings were very good, and the details were handled nicely.

It was just that the styles differed, and Bai Qingling didn’t know which way Chu Junming leaned.

She also had no idea that the reason Jian Ye had brought so many sets of renderings today was because Chu Junming had requested it last minute.

To give them more options.

Feng Yize rubbed his chin with one hand and pointed at the drawings with the other, smiling slightly. "Third Brother’s not that particular about decor. Why don’t you just pick what you like? You’re the one supervising anyway, might as well choose something pleasing to your eye so your mood’s better."

Bai Qingling lifted her gaze from the drawings to look at Feng Yize. "You sure your Third Brother won’t kill you?"

"He won’t. His only condition is that it doesn’t end up looking like my place. Even if we decorated it like a rental, he wouldn’t care."

"Pfft."

Bai Qingling laughed and looked at Feng Yize. "If you say that, I really will pick whatever I want."

After all, Chu Junming’s villa was so close to Momo’s and Tongtong’s place, and Qinghuan might end up living there too.

With that thought, Bai Qingling decided to decorate it according to her own taste.

If Chu Junming didn’t like it in the end, she’d just buy it off him cheap and be neighbors with Momo and the others.

With that in mind, Bai Qingling felt completely unburdened. She carefully went through the drawings again and chose the style she liked best.

Best-case scenario, he won’t like it and will transfer it to her.

"Let’s go with this one. I want to tweak this bookshelf a bit..."

Jian Ye followed where Qingling’s finger pointed on the drawing and nodded. "No problem. I’ll revise it and show you later."

"Once you’ve revised it, just send it to me. I’ll see if there’s anything else that needs changing."

Watching how enthusiastic Bai Qingling was, Feng Yize’s peach blossom eyes blinked.

It really felt like she was decorating her own home.

He picked up his phone and snapped a few photos to send to Qinghuan and Chu Junming.

Then he asked Qinghuan which style she liked.

Qinghuan knew these were his villa’s renovation plans and replied, [They all look good.]

Feng Yize glanced at Qingling beside him, still studying her chosen design to see if anything else needed adjusting, then looked back at Qinghuan’s three-word reply.

A tiny pang of disappointment stirred in his chest.

Bai Qingling was very serious about it, believing that renovations should be done to full satisfaction; otherwise, once you moved in, it’d be too late to regret.

So from inside to outside, from upstairs to downstairs, from the master bedroom to the bathroom... she went over everything carefully.

Then she pointed at the drawing again. "Move the children’s room next to the master bedroom."
