Chapter: 3194

Xiao Chongkun mentioned that Du Haiqing had invested a lot of heart and soul into renovating this house, with many small details being carefully considered without regard to cost.

In the car, Xiao Chongkun lamented to Leaf Chen: "It's that customer you met yesterday, Aunt Du. I originally drew up a plan worth over 200,000 yuan for her to renovate that old house, but she kept adjusting it and increasing the budget to over 1 million..."

As she spoke, she continued: "I've discovered that rich people really don't care about cost when doing things. This house is estimated to be sold for no more than 100,000 yuan, and the government doesn't allow major changes or renovations, so she ended up spending a lot of money on internal repairs, almost enough to buy an entire block..."

Leaf Chen smiled slightly and said: "Perhaps this old house holds some special meaning to them, so they want to spend money to renovate it nicely. That's understandable."

"Is that right," Xiao Chongkun replied. "Aunt Du said she wants to retire here, but her accent sounds like someone from Yanjing. I don't know why she chose to move here instead."

As she spoke, Xiao Chongkun added: "And Aunt Du's daughter is also planning to live with her here, and the daughter's accent is also from Yanjing..."

Leaf Chen nodded, smiling: "Actually, living in Jinling is much better than living in Yanjing. Yanjing is hot in summer and cold in winter, with short springs and autumns, and it can get very dry and windy. The air quality is still quite different from that of Jinling..."

Xiao Chongkun couldn't help but laugh: "Look at you talking about Yanjing like you're an expert! Have you lived in Yanjing before?"

Leaf Chen laughed: "I went to Yanjing a few times to help a client with feng shui, and the client was complaining. Actually, the more you move north, the more people yearn for southern climates. Look at northeastern China, where it's cold all year round. The locals there love the South Seas..."

Xiao Chongkun nodded slightly and said, "That's also true. The climate in Jinling is indeed better than in the north by a lot."

After that, Xiao Chongkun added, "Oh, Aunt Du seems to have quite an impression of you, always asking me about your situation. She said she wants you to go give her a reading on Feng Shui if you have time, and she's really nice."

Leaf Chen couldn't help but wrinkle his brow, thinking that Du Haiqing was well aware of his true identity, so why was he still chatting with Xiao Chongkun about this?

He thought for a moment before saying casually, "Last time I took a look around, her old mansion's Feng Shui is actually quite good. There's no need to make any changes if she really wants to adjust it. Just wait until everything is done and then we can do the fine-tuning afterwards."

"Okay." Xiao Chongkun didn't know Leaf Chen was just humoring him, nodded his head and said, "I'll go tell Aunt Du about it later."

Leaf Chen dropped Xiao Chongkun off at the old mansion's gate. Just as they arrived, Du Haiqing happened to come out from the courtyard, saw Xiao Chongkun getting off the car, and smiled, saying, "Initial Here already!"

Xiao Chongkun smiled and said, "Aunt Du, nice to see you again. I've fine-tuned my previous proposal and will show it to you later."

"Okay!" Du Haiqing nodded slightly, gestured to Leaf Chen sitting in the driver's seat, and laughed, saying, "Mr. Leaf, good to see you again!"

Leaf Chen rolled down his car window and smiled, saying, "Aunt Du, nice to see you too. I have some things to attend to later, so I won't get off."

Let me know if there's anything else I can help with!

"Okay!" Du Haiqing nodded slightly, gestured to Leaf Chen sitting in the driver's seat, and laughed, saying, "Mr. Leaf, good to see you again!"

Leaf Chen rolled down his car window and smiled, saying, "Aunt Du, nice to see you too. I have some things to attend to later, so I won't get off."

"Alright then! You're busy, go ahead and take care of your matters," said Aunt Du Haiqing with a nod.

Leaf Chen nodded slightly and wondered in his heart why Aunt Du Haiqing had suddenly referred to Shuo Chu as "Initial", instead of her usual term "Elder". He knew that their relationship was developing quickly.

Leaf Chen didn't doubt Du Haiqing's character, but he couldn't help feeling a bit worried about whether she was intentionally trying to get closer to Shuo Chu. He feared that Du Haiqing might unintentionally let something slip.

However, Leaf Chen decided not to directly remind Du Haiqing and believed that she would know her limits when doing things. JrNovels.com
