I looked at a ceramic flowing fountain with a diameter of 2 meters in the center of the hall, and asked Luo Sumei beside me: "Boss, is Mr. Xiao particularly particular about pomp?"

Luo Sumei also looked at the hall where we were located, and then replied with a smile: "Mr. Xiao is still very low-key, the reason why he attaches importance to the image of the enterprise is to show his strength to the outside world, these years Jinding Real Estate has taken high-end real estate as its main business." ”

I nodded, and then sighed: "Anyway, it's rich, no wonder I'm willing to spend 3 million for a wedding, and I'm afraid that ordinary people like us will make so much money in our lifetime."

"That's not easy to say, the bigger the plate, the greater the pressure, the recent market is not very good, I heard that Jinding Real Estate has been losing money since the second half of last year, and this year's financing pressure is very great."

While talking, Luo Sumei and I came to the service desk, because there was an appointment in advance, the front desk lady took us to the office where Mr. Xiao was on the 6th floor.

After arriving, the front desk lady knocked on the door and asked the people inside very respectfully: "Mr. Xiao, the people from the wedding company are here, do you have time to meet you now?"

A neutral voice came from the room: "Please come in." ”

The front desk lady gently pushed open the double doors of the office, and then made a gesture of please to me and Luo Sumei, and I walked in with Luo Sumei.

At first glance, the office is spacious, but the decoration is obviously not as luxurious as the hall, a bit of an ancient Chinese style, with a lot of ceramic and rattan ornaments in the floor-to-ceiling cabinets, and Mr. Xiao is sitting at a desk made of mahogany, holding a pen for signing, and seems to have been working all the time.

He motioned for me to sit with Russell Mei, I subconsciously glanced at him, and sure enough, he was full of the aura of a successful person, although he knew that his actual age was already 50 years old, but he looked like he was in his early forties, as for the appearance

I looked a little familiar, and I was sure that I had never had the chance to see him before, but at this moment, I was a little nervous because of the importance of the matter, so I didn't think much about it, and immediately focused on the conversation between Russell and him.

Luo Sumei said to him politely: "Mr. Xiao, I know that you have a lot of opportunities, so I didn't dare to disturb you too much before, but the wedding date is getting closer and closer, so I still take the liberty of bringing our company's planner over to talk to you face-to-face." ”

"Don't bother, but I heard that you have put a lot of thought into this wedding."

"This is our job, as long as the customer is satisfied, we should put as much effort as we want"

Mr. Xiao nodded.

Luo Sumei finally smiled and asked, "Then Mr. Xiao, can our planner make a proposal with you?"

I quickly combed through the outline of the plan in my brain to ensure that I could express it accurately and fluently later, but I didn't want Mr. Xiao to say to us: "Wait a while, my daughter is also here today, planning to help me as a staff officer, I just went to the bathroom, and I should be back soon." ”

I was very surprised, because the list of relatives provided to us by Mr. Xiao's fiancée did not mention that Mr. Xiao also had a daughter, but Luo Sumei seemed to know some inside information that I didn't know, she didn't act surprised, just nodded, and then signaled to Mr. Xiao that it was okay for us to wait for a while.

After about two minutes, the door of the office was pushed open without warning, and a girl wearing a red vest skirt and looking very standard stood in front of us so recklessly, and my jaw was so shocked that I couldn't pick it up

I was a little confused about the situation, stared at Xiao Ai over and over again, and then I connected her with Mr. Xiao's daughter, and I really couldn't make such an association before, because I have served a lot of customers with the surname Xiao, and I didn't see her name at all on the list of relatives I got, so I ignored the detail that she and Xiao always have the same surname, but is there any inevitable connection between this and her finding me, I can't figure it out, and still open my mouth to look at her

Mr. Xiao finally looked at Xiao Ai and said to me and Luo Sumei: "This is my daughter Xiao Ai, you can talk to us about the planning of the wedding." ”

Xiao Ai walked past me, and then gave me a look not to talk nonsense, although I was surprised as if I was dreaming, but I didn't want to say anything more on such a serious occasion, because there is always a chance to figure out some things, and it is the most important thing to let Xiao pass my proposal in front of me.

Xiao Ai sat down on the sofa next to Mr. Xiao, but his expression was ugly, not at all like he was here to be a staff officer, but like he was here to smash the field

I quickly adjusted the state, connected the computer I brought with the projection equipment in the office, and then opened the wedding planning plan and said: "This time I am going to use the sunshine as the theme of your wedding, which has two meanings, first of all, Mr. Xiao, you are engaged in the real estate industry, is an important builder of the city, so the theme uses the word city to point out your career, and the sunshine represents warmth and happiness, but also symbolizes a universal love, in order to show everyone's blessings for this wedding, And the word "Sunshine Allure" expresses a vision, wishing that the upcoming marriage between Mr. Xiao and his fiancée can be bathed in sunshine every day, and at the same time, it will be as eternal as sunshine in the city."

Mr. Xiao nodded, obviously satisfied with this wedding theme, and he asked again: "Then how do you plan to execute it, and then show this theme?"

I subconsciously looked at Xiao Ai, but she looked at me with a very disgusting gaze, I hurriedly withdrew my eyes and said: "We are going to move several landmark buildings that Mr. Xiao has done in Nanjing to the wedding site in the form of models, and at the same time create a feeling of going out of the city, and before the wedding begins, we will make the effect before dawn, when the wedding officially begins, the sun will pour down from every angle, everything on the scene is colorful, colorful road signs, colorful tables and chairs, colorful flowers, Colorful balloons This is a rendering of the wedding scene, Xiao always you can see. ”

As I spoke, I presented the renderings made by the design department separately, and Mr. Xiao also left his office chair, and then stood under the projection screen with a very serious expression, and I then stood beside him, answering some doubts to him that he felt was problematic.

It took about an hour for Mr. Xiao and I to finish the wedding proposal, and he himself gave a high evaluation of the idea of "Sunshine Allure", and only put forward his own opinions on some details, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, because it meant that we could start to prepare for the implementation part, and the obstacles in front of us at this moment have been basically cleared.

As soon as Luo Sumei and I walked out of the office building of Jinding Real Estate, we received a WeChat message from Xiao Ai: "Jiangqiao, you are not allowed to leave, wait for me downstairs." ”

I was already full of doubts about her identity as Mr. Xiao's daughter, so I immediately stopped and said to Luo Sumei: "Boss, you go back to the company first, and I'll take the subway back by myself later." ”

"What's wrong?"

"Do something personal."

Luo Sumei took the car keys from me, didn't ask anything more, and then drove away, while I lit a cigarette and stood in the shade downstairs waiting, but my brain has not been idle, because I always feel like I am dreaming, and I feel that my previous behavior is a little ridiculous, I actually took Mr. Xiao's daughter to run the wedding field, and then earn some small money that she didn't care about at all.

When a cigarette was about to run out, Xiao Ai finally walked out of the building, she pulled me to the place where she parked without saying a word, and then pinched the flesh on my waist with her hand and said: "You're sick to death, aren't you just a negative man with an old cucumber, what kind of bullshit wedding theme do you make for them?"

As I broke free, I exclaimed bitterly: "I'll just work part-time, don't make it nice, can your father agree to my proposal?"

"Your conscience has lost money and been eaten by dogs."

"You quickly let go, the flesh is puffed and swollen by you"

Xiao Ai finally let go of me, but still glared at me angrily, while I looked at her suspiciously, I needed her to give me an explanation.

That evening, Xiao Ai drove me back to Tulip Road, but instead of going to my accommodation, we stood in front of the door of the abandoned textile factory, and the setting sun was a little depressed on our faces, and the wind blew a gust of coolness before the night came.

I finally said to her: "You have always been the leader of this game, but at this time, can you give me an explanation, why you are the daughter of Mr. Xiao"

"He gave birth to me, and of course I am his daughter."

I broke out in a cold sweat, reorganized my language and said to her: "I didn't mean that, I just wanted to ask, did you come to find out if I had something to do with Mr. Xiao's wedding"

Xiao Ai looked at me and said after a moment, "I want to talk to you about the wedding theme of the Sunshine City now." Can you tell me that there really is such a wedding in this world that can be as beautiful as you just described?"

I put away my doubts for a while, and repeated this word in my mind, and suddenly became a little sad, and was silent for a long time before replying: "Your father spent 3 million yuan to make a wedding, and without this theme, I don't know how to spend this money." I've thought about a lot of themes before, but this one uses the most equipment and materials, and the effect is the most luxurious, and I don't actually believe in the sunshine, but I've done a lot of weddings in the rain in the past 6 years."

"But I've fantasized about it"

"What"

Xiao Ai didn't respond to me, she looked at the tulip road in front of her in a little confusion, the street lights were lit up in her silence, and the night seemed to only come between the two of us, and she suddenly became very thin and pitiful in my eyes
