Lu Weixi stayed in bed until she regained her strength. Qin Zhiyou’s early morning antics had caused her to wake up half an hour later than she usually did for work. If not for the fact that her company didn’t require clock-in times, she would have lost her perfect attendance long ago.

After getting ready and coming downstairs, she found that Qin Zhiyou was not there, and it looked like he had already left without having breakfast.

She guessed that lately, Qin Zhiyou seemed to be applying the same techniques he used to pick up girls on her, treating her like any other woman. Like it said in “Endearing Love”, Fan Liuyuan only reserved his flirty remarks for the women outside, and in doing so, he acknowledged Bai Liusu’s unique place in his heart. Otherwise, she was just another plaything to him.

She didn’t bother worrying about Qin Zhiyou. He seemed to maintain this pattern – sometimes spontaneous, at other times shallow. When he was happy, he’d come home daily, but when he wasn’t, even asking him wouldn’t bring him home for a month. Anyway, whether he was home or not, the money in her account never ceased to come through. She had enough for this month, next month, and perhaps even the month after.

Due to recent policy tightening, the advancement of the real estate industry has not been going too well. Fewer people were buying houses, and consequently, fewer were getting renovations. While Lu Weixi had accumulated many clients over her years working in designing, she was not immune to these effects. She saw a drop in the workload, but thanks to Qin Zhiyou’s frequent homecomings, she didn’t have as much trouble coping with this real estate winter, as most designers relying on quantity over fame would.

With more time on her hands, she didn’t find herself having to compete for every job like before. Instead, she decided to focus on figuring out a plan of attack for Owner Liao’s new building project.

The current issue was that not only could she not come into contact with Owner Liao, but the mysterious architect of the new building, Simon White, was also elusive. Apart from his command of multiple languages, which might reveal his mixed heritage or that he was an American Born Chinese, not much else was known. So all she could do was study Simon White’s past designs, hoping to discover elements of inspiration to incorporate into her own ideas.

During her lunch break at the company, she did some research and looked through various design diagrams by Simon White. Simon White became widely recognized when he designed a landmark in Southern Europe about three years ago. Even though he wasn’t renowned before, his remarkable designs quickly caught the attention of the event organizers. Since then, he had taken on multiple designing projects, each one creative and representative of the local style. Based on her knowledge of Owner Liao’s preferences, she should be able to piece together a rough understanding of Simon White’s design inspirations.

She had also set up an appointment to meet with a new client that afternoon. The client had purchased a house at the city center of Yan City, not far from her alma mater, N University. Originally, the house was planned as a school district residence for their child, but due to its excellent location and surroundings, they decided to give it a decent renovation.

She was able to finish early and head back. For a while, Xiaochen and Xiaoqian had constantly been running around with her, but since things had quieted down, she didn’t see the need to insist they return to the office straight away. As she drove back alone, her car suddenly broke down right in front of the gate of N University.

It was an embarrassing situation, as the students coming in and out were all staring at her stranded vehicle.. As she was getting frustrated, a man stepped out of a taxi nearby, and called out to her “Miss Lu?”
