Xuan Niao pursed her lips and didn't say much for a moment.
The other party was, after all, the country's top designer, and held various honors. She couldn't afford to offend them completely, it was just a slight displeasure, nothing more.
Besides, they were the ones who invited them. If they spoke too harshly, what if they left?
"It's okay, it's okay, it's my fault."
Xing Huimin coughed, feeling a bit embarrassed. She was the one who refused first.
"I'm very sorry, Teacher Xing. This subordinate of mine has this temper, and there's nothing I can do. Please forgive me. Of course, I also asked Xuan Niao to invite you. I want to ask you to design a manor for me."
Ye Longlin apologized, expressing his regret for Xuan Niao's rudeness.
"You flatter me. I just love this industry. Please don't call me teacher. Your contributions to Great Xia are evident to all of us. It is my honor to serve you."
Xing Huimin probably never imagined that one day she would be able to serve the esteemed Commander of the Three Armies.
When she received the email, she didn't pay much attention to it. Although she didn't know how the other party found her private email, since it was a personal matter, she declined.
She really didn't expect the other party to have such an identity and background!
In the end, the other party used express air delivery to send the invitation to her company, and only then did she receive the invitation from the Dragon Pavilion.
But she didn't expect them to be the same person!
"Teacher Xing, do you have any ideas about this manor? Because I really want to build a manor. To put it bluntly, I also want to have a place to live after I step down.
I also prefer quiet, so I want to build one in the suburbs, a quieter place."
Xing Huimin nodded slightly and said, "Of course, I can. However, Mr. Ye, what kind of manor are you looking for, or what style are you looking for? It would be convenient for me to provide you with renderings."
Ye Longlin looked at Mu Hanqi and said, "Tell me, what do you want?"
...
"Okay, Mr. Ye, I understand your requirements. I will provide the renderings within a week at the latest."
After listening to their requirements, Xing Huimin nodded and directly promised.
In fact, their requirements were not too excessive. Among the requirements she had encountered, this was already a very simple one.
As long as a designer heard their requirements, they would know what to do, as it was too simple and too normal.
However, the extravagance of the other party was also the most extravagant she had heard.
Mu Hanqi directly said that she would invest one billion to build it, using the best materials. And with such funds, she had encountered this before. She had undertaken many large projects, and one billion was indeed not much.
However, the other party's identity was the most significant among the orders she had taken!
When she was still overseas, she had heard of Ye Longlin's great name, and after returning, it was even more resounding.
She herself did not expect to receive his order!
"Alright, thank you for your trouble."
"It's no trouble, it's no trouble, it's what I should do, it's what I should do."
After leaving the tea house, Xing Huimin took a deep breath and called her company, instructing, "Notify my dedicated team to set off for Chang'an tonight."
After making arrangements, she then sighed, a look of shock appearing in her eyes, clearly not expecting it to really be him.
Before setting off, she still couldn't believe it, but now she truly knew why the other party could hold a high position at such a young age!
From his demeanor and cultivation alone, one could tell his quality, especially the aura he exuded inadvertently, which made her heart pound.
Ye Longlin sat by the window, tasting the tea and looking at the scenery outside. In a daze, he seemed to see scenes of martyrs sacrificing themselves for the country.
It was precisely because of these fearless ancestors that there was today's peace and stability. However, there were still many problems, and even though darkness concealed filth, he was the cleaner!
As long as the biggest cleaner was dealt with, the remaining small fish and shrimp would essentially be meaningless.
"What are you thinking about?"
Mu Hanqi asked softly. It had been a long time since she had sat down to have tea with Ye Longlin like this. He had been very busy recently dealing with the matters of the Dark Hall, and they had spoken less.
"It's nothing, I was just thinking that if we both get old, we could drink tea and bask in the sun in the manor, with our daughter nearby, and Yuan Gang and Xuan Niao visiting Chang'an from time to time. Life would be very leisurely."
Listening to his words, Mu Hanqi could hear the longing in his voice from his description.
Mu Hanqi shook her head and turned, her eyes, as gentle as flowing water, fell on him, capable of melting anyone into them.
"I am just a small woman, and I don't understand your talk of family and country. For me, even if you step down, there will be others to do these things. I just hope you can be safe, and I have no other wishes.
As a wife, I naturally consider my family. I also don't want Yiyi to not have a father, so you should understand what I mean, right?"
Ye Longlin nodded: "I know, so don't worry too much. The foundation of the Ye family has already been laid, so nothing will happen to me, don't worry."
"You'd better not have any accidents, otherwise, I'll take Yiyi and remarry. Yiyi is so obedient, her stepfather will definitely like her."
Mu Hanqi snorted proudly.
Ye Longlin pulled Mu Hanqi into his arms, playfully stroking her waist, and teased, "Sun Wukong can't escape the Five Fingers Mountain of the Buddha, and you can't escape my Five Fingers Mountain either. You still want to remarry, you're dreaming!"
"Hahaha, who knows. I don't want to remarry either, so it depends on you!"
Xuan Niao watched from the side, not wanting to disturb them.
Ding!
The phone rang.
Xuan Niao took it out and her expression gradually turned grim. After looking at the contents, she was silent for a moment, then took her phone and walked aside, calling Yuan Gang.
"Didn't I tell you to monitor them? How could such a big mistake happen? What the hell are you doing?"
The monitoring task was assigned to Yuan Gang, but now that such a major blunder had occurred, no one could escape responsibility.
"It happened suddenly, no one knows. The main reason is that the other party had a Barrett, and the glass couldn't withstand it, shattering her body!
Do you think I didn't want to watch her? A sniper, and a large caliber like a Barrett, what could I do?"
