Reborn in the 90s, I traded my ex-husband for eight apartments.

Anping and Xiao Zhongyun's villa is quite large, with three floors and a yard, covering more than 1,000 square meters.

Xiao Zhongyun is truly extravagant; land in Yuan City is cheap, and he buys it without hesitation.

Building a house for oneself is naturally even more casual.

In the development he built, apart from the other high-rise buildings, there were only twenty villas in total, and his villa was the largest and in the best location.

Xiao Zhongyun held his precious daughter while encouraging Huo Zheng:

"Mr. Huo, you see, Ms. Bai's family is all in Yuan City, so she will definitely come back to Yuan City often."

"Do you want this villa? I'll give you a discount."

Huo Zheng was also quite blunt:

"Mr. Xiao, don't worry about not being able to sell them. Once Mr. Bai has decorated these villas for you, they will definitely fetch a good price."

Xiao Zhongyun pointed at Huo Zheng:

"Mr. Huo, you're just like me, both henpecked husbands, hahaha..."

Huo Zheng smiled but did not refute.

Only now did Bai Zhenzhu realize that An Ping not only wanted to renovate her own house, but also wanted Huihuang to renovate the other nineteen villas.

This is a huge order; even Ge Minjing, who was standing next to her, was a little taken aback.

Xiao Zhongyun laughed heartily:

"I used to have a designer, but my wife didn't like him."

"She just likes Mr. Bai's style, so there's nothing I can do but listen to my wife."

An Ping put her hands behind her back and said:

"Your port city's designers don't understand us mainlanders."

She said to Bai Zhenzhu:

"Old Xiao's team does have designers, and you've met them. I just think his design schemes are too rigid."

“All of our houses have yards, and he just put up some lawns and told us to plant grass. What’s the point of that?”

"They even said they'd dig an outdoor swimming pool, but that's completely unrealistic. Who swims there except for the hottest days in summer? It's such a waste."

"Moreover, his design style is too monotonous. What I mean is, these twenty villas could be decorated in four or five different styles, giving the owners more options."

As Anping spoke, Bai Zhenzhu already had some ideas in mind.

Her leg was still recovering, so Huo Zheng didn't dare let her walk too much.

The group only visited three villas in total, focusing on Anping's house.

Anping and Xiao Zhongyun mainly wanted to hear Bai Zhenzhu's thoughts today. They intended for Huihuang to decorate these houses, but they also needed to see if Bai Zhenzhu had the ability to satisfy them.

So many villas, that's a lot of money.

After we finished looking around, we found a place to sit down, which was like having a small meeting to hear Bai Zhenzhu's opinion.

Bai Zhenzhu briefly mentioned the styles she has decorated so far: European, light luxury, glamorous, modern style popular in Hong Kong, and Chinese style.

"As long as the style of the courtyard and the interior of the villa are unified, the effect will be immediately apparent. For example, a European-style courtyard paired with an exquisite small garden. The swimming pool that Sister An mentioned earlier is also very good. It can be paired with a fashionable and bright modern style, or a Chinese-style water feature with a pavilion and lotus pond, and the style will immediately come through."

Xiao Zhongyun nodded repeatedly as he listened:

"Yes, yes, let's do it that way. Let's come up with a few styles, there's bound to be one that the big bosses will like."

Anping was also very satisfied and immediately made the decision:

"I trust Pearl to take care of these villas."

Ge Minjing immediately smiled and said:

“Alright, I’ll transfer a college graduate from Chengdu to oversee President An’s project.”

Then he looked at the white pearl:

"Let's go with Dou Bin."

White Pearl nodded:

"Have him come over now. I'll have a good talk with him in the next few days."

There were still things to measure the room and so on, and Bai Zhenzhu definitely couldn't do it alone. Ge Minjing was also a woman of action, so she immediately took out her phone and called Dou Bin, asking him to come over as soon as possible.

Dou Bin receives a travel allowance, and there are generous bonuses for such large projects, so he is naturally happy to travel.

We ate lunch at a state-run restaurant again.

The boss didn't know Huo Zheng and Bai Zhenzhu, but he did know Xiao Zhongyun and An Ping.

Seeing these people traveling together, the boss hurried over to greet them.

"Mr. Xiao and Mr. An, please come to the private room upstairs."

Holding his sleeping daughter, Xiao Zhongyun said with great pride:

"Boss Liao, prepare a table full of your family's signature dishes."

He then asked Huo Zheng:

"Mr. Huo, how about something else?"

Huo Zheng refused:

"Don't drink anymore."

Xiao Zhongyun did not force him:

"Haha, I don't like drinking that stuff either."

He even pouted at Anping:

"I don't drink alcohol outside, honey. Neither Mr. Huo nor I like to drink."

Huo Zheng: "..."

An Ping gave a cold laugh, clearly not believing it.

Hearing that Huo Zheng was a big boss from Chengdu, the restaurant owner was even more respectful and personally poured tea for everyone.

"Mr. Huo, that person came by this morning, asking around about you two."

Huo Zheng's eyes darkened:

Did he say anything?

The restaurant owner hurriedly said:

"He didn't say anything, just asked if I knew you. I said I didn't, and he went out. I saw him drive a red Santana and stand on the side making a phone call. He seemed to be mentioning a company called Huaxing or something."

Bai Zhenzhu and Huo Zheng exchanged a glance.

Huo Zheng nodded and thanked him.

The restaurant owner poured tea for everyone and then left.

Ge Minjing asked with concern:

"Pearl, are you in trouble?"

Bai Zhenzhu smiled:

"No, I ran into my ex-husband last night."

Ge Minjing glanced at Huo Zheng, whose face was expressionless and whose emotions were unreadable.

Ge Minjing said:

"Don't bother with those kinds of people; they're all just passing clouds."

Xiao Zhongyun looks strange:

"So it was a love rival! I knew Mr. Huo seemed a bit down today. Oh dear, were the dishes not sour today? It's not suitable for Mr. Huo, hahaha..."

Everyone: "..."

An Ping rolled her eyes speechlessly and said to Bai Zhenzhu and Huo Zheng:

"This person just speaks without thinking, please don't mind him."

Xiao Zhongyun wanted to make a joke, but his wife silenced him with a glare.

It's rare to see Huo Zheng so depressed; what a great opportunity for revenge, what a pity.

Huo Zheng was thinking, "Pei Xiangyang is inquiring about Huaxing. Could it be that he went to Rongcheng?"

He was negligent.

So he got up, grabbed his mobile phone, and went outside to call Qin Mo, asking him to check if Jinfei Real Estate in Shanghai had any projects in Chengdu.

And pay attention to a person named Pei Xiangyang.

After giving these instructions, Huo Zheng returned to the private room.

As he sat down, he gave Bai Zhenzhu a reassuring look, and Bai Zhenzhu didn't ask any further questions.

After finishing their meal and getting into the car, Huo Zheng told Bai Zhenzhu his thoughts.

White Pearl frowns:

“He is a very selfish person and it is impossible for him to stay in Chengdu just because of me.”

"I remember the Xia family has businesses in Chengdu, so it's very likely that the Xia family's companies are doing something in Chengdu."

Huo Zheng nodded:

"I see. It's alright. I'll have Qin Mo inquire about it, just in case."

Bai Zhenzhu recalled that in her previous life, Pei Xiangyang had always stayed in Shanghai and had never returned to his hometown.

I never imagined he would come to Chengdu in this lifetime.

The Xia family's financial and power centers are all in Shanghai, but Pei Xiangyang was sent to Chengdu.

It seems that Pei Xiangyang's life in this one is not as comfortable and smooth as his previous one.
