Aurora Wish

Chapter 2 First Impressions

Before meeting Gu Mingxiao, Tang Liyin had already met four designers.

The house he will be renovating is at One Park Lane, off the island.After I bought it last year, I wanted to decorate according to this requirement, but at that time I was busy with work and didn't have much time to stay in Wuning, so I put it off until now.

Those four had different views on his request.Two of them declined politely, and the other two said they could give it a try, but he was not satisfied after the design proposal was given, and they ended up talking about it several times.

He has a rather short-tempered temperament, and he is not in a hurry to live there, he just wants to wait.After waiting, Gu Mingxiao came.

He parked his car in the Gemini Tower in Pearl Harbor and took the elevator up to the 32nd floor.

Wuning is a seaside city, and several roads around the island connect the inside and outside of the island.The island is the city center with complete supporting facilities, but the population density is high.The scenery outside the island is beautiful, especially the Park Road area in the mid-levels, which has a tropical island style, and the residential environment is more comfortable.

When Tang Liyin arrived, he checked his watch, and it was still ten minutes before six o'clock.He took out his membership card from his wallet, and the welcome at the door invited him in after registering, and sat on a seat by the window.

There are fresh forget-me-nots in the glass vase on the table, with a faint fragrance.He asked for a glass of lemonade, looking at the red-gold sunset and the clear sea in the distance, he couldn't help but think of his dream last night.

He hadn't dreamed of that person for a long time.

The memory went back to the past uncontrollably, but just when he remembered the way that person smiled at him, he stood up, planning to go to the bathroom to wash his face to wake up.

Gu Mingxiao arrived at ten past six.

He reported Tang Liyin's name, and the welcome guests took him to his seat and asked him if he wanted to order first.

Looking at the lemonade that had been taken a few sips on the table, he also ordered a glass, saying that he would order it later.

He put his suit jacket on the chair next to him, unbuttoned his cuff buttons, and thought about how to reject Tang Liyin for a while.

The question troubled him for two days without an answer.

After all, he had never encountered such an embarrassing situation, and he didn't know what Tang Liyin would think when he interrupted him, but it must be unpleasant.

Since neither of them has a good impression of each other, the cooperation will not go smoothly.But since Tang Liyin is Qi Xiaoxuan's good friend, he couldn't refuse so obviously.

The waiter brought him the lemonade he asked for, and he habitually took out chocolates from his bag, only to see the box Li He gave him.

He casually put it in his bag after get off work yesterday, and now he just opened it up to eat one.But as soon as he put the chocolate into his mouth, he saw a person turn out from the opposite corridor.

The man was tall and slender, wearing slim pants.Her shoulder-length brown hair, with a few strands of bangs falling on her sideburns, accentuated that delicate face with a bit of soft charm.

Gu Mingxiao just glanced at it and couldn't look away.The man's walking posture was also not like that of ordinary men, revealing the elegance of a cat.The marble floor reflected the crystal light, as if it had been crushed by that person, leaving a bright spot behind.

He thought it was some kind of public figure, but he didn't know it was Tang Liyin until the other party walked up to him and held out his hand to him with a smile.

He immediately stood up and held that white hand: "Hello, I'm Gu Mingxiao."

Tang Liyin still kept a gentle smile: "Hi, I went to the bathroom just now, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

"No, I just arrived too." Gu Mingxiao realized that the chocolate was still in his mouth after speaking, and said, "I'm sorry."

Tang Liyin saw the chocolate packaging box on the table: "Isn't this a new limited edition this year? You like to eat it too?" He sat back to his seat while talking, and Gu Mingxiao picked up the lemonade and drank it After taking a sip, he handed the chocolate to him: "I'm laughing at you. Try it too, it tastes really good."

Tang Liyin came out just as he put it in his mouth just now, and swallowed it without knowing what the ice cream chocolate tasted like.But since it's a limited edition, it shouldn't be bad.

Tang Liyin took it generously, took one off and put it in his mouth, took a few bites and said with a smile: "Sweet but not greasy, it's really good."

In the past, when eating chocolate, Gu Mingxiao was often laughed at by people who didn't know the inside story, saying that he, a big man around 1.8 meters, likes to eat things that only small women like.Today, I finally met someone like him, and he handed over the box without even thinking about it: "If you like it, I can give it to you, I have many more at home."

Tang Liyin wanted to refuse, but he was stunned after hearing the second half of what he said: "A lot?"

Gu Mingxiao nodded, then picked up the lemonade and drank it: "It's my source of inspiration. I have a big glass cabinet at home dedicated to storing all kinds of chocolates."

Tang Liyin agrees: "Appropriate sugar supplementation can indeed improve work efficiency."

He lowered his head and found the Norwegian instructions on the back of the package, wanting to see how much cocoa this product contains and whether it is suitable for Xue Qi to eat.But he didn't know that when he was watching, the people on the opposite side were also looking at him.

From the first time he saw Tang Liyin, Gu Mingxiao felt that he looked familiar.

At first I thought it was because of a public figure, but now it seems that it is just an ordinary person, and with such a grown-up, it is impossible to bump into someone.

Gu Mingxiao thought about it.At this time, the music in the restaurant changed, Tang Liyin frowned as soon as the tune started, then pushed the chocolate in his hand aside, and smiled at Gu Mingxiao: "Let's order."

The change in his expression was fleeting, but Gu Mingxiao didn't see it, so he beckoned the waiter to get the menu.

In the past, every time he returned to Wuning, Tang Liyin would patronize Haiwan Restaurant, and he was very familiar with the dishes here.He asked Gu Mingxiao's taste, and then pointed to several styles and asked if they were good.Gu Mingxiao nodded one by one, without any opinion.After the waiter wrote it down, he asked Gu Mingxiao to order some.Gu Mingxiao said that he eats casually, what he ordered is fine.

The waiter asked if he wanted drinks.He came here by car, but Gu Mingxiao didn't have one, so he said that the restaurant's special fruit wine tasted very good, and asked Gu Mingxiao if he wanted to try it.

Gu Mingxiao still had no objection. After the waiter left, he returned to today's topic and asked about the plan.

Only then did Gu Mingxiao realize that he came here to refuse, but after getting along with him just now, he completely put this matter behind him, and couldn't help laughing awkwardly: "Actually, I haven't made up my mind yet, I also plan to ask you out today Ask your thoughts first, so that I can go back and draw the design drawings."

Tang Liyin thought for a moment: "You know the basic outline requirements, the main thing is the details. I used to live in Norway for a long time, and I was used to the European style, so the whole should be white and gray. For furniture, you can find professional customization according to your design drawings. of."

Gu Mingxiao said clearly: "No wonder you have such a request, it turns out that you are used to seeing the Northern Lights."

Tang Liyin said: "I also know that this request is a bit troublesome. I have already found four designers before you, but there is no follow-up. I hope you can see the dawn here."

Gu Mingxiao opened the briefcase on the side, took out his notebook, found the group of photos of the aurora that he had taken, and turned it in front of him: "This was taken when I went to Norway last year, and it has most of the angles, take a look first. If you want to show the effect of the aurora surrounding in the living room of the residence without being dazzled, then as you said, the supporting furniture should be mainly white, and gray can be used as an embellishment. Also, the forest part should not be conspicuous, it is best to With the outline of spruce, it will be natural to connect with the sky."

Tang Liyin listened carefully, pressing the left and right keys with his slender fingertips, turning over one by one.After Gu Mingxiao finished speaking, he didn't bother him anymore, and asked after he finished reading, "How is it?"

Tang Liyin smiled, maybe he had been staring at the Northern Lights for a long time, his expression was more gentle than before: "It's good, I have a picture in my mind after you say that."

Gu Mingxiao turned the notebook back, and opened a folder for him to read, all of which were some materials collected that afternoon.The two of them discussed for a while, and when the appetizers came, Gu Mingxiao put away his notebook, planning to continue after eating.

The Western food at Haiwan Restaurant is very rich in taste. After a meal, Tang Liyin only asked him how he felt after serving the food, and kept his head down while eating without speaking.

Gu Mingxiao took a few glances, Tang Liyin's eating was just like his appearance, he chewed slowly and silently, and the knife and fork rarely touched the plate.And he tied up his hair before eating. From his own perspective, the eyelashes were thick and long, blocking the light in his eyes.

Gu Mingxiao often eats with clients, and he can handle them well no matter they are informal or polite, but he has never seen Tang Liyin so silent.So much so that he became stiff, he couldn't speak well, and his chewing speed slowed down.

The meal took nearly an hour to finish.Tang Liyin wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, said excuse me, and went to the bathroom to rinse his mouth.

Gu Mingxiao heaved a sigh of relief when he turned into the corridor that he came out just now.

He usually doesn't like to eat Western food, mainly because Western food has more rules than Chinese food.Fortunately, the people who dined together today feel pretty good.Looking at the empty chair opposite, he couldn't help but think of Tang Liyin eating with his head down.

I have to say that such facial features are really pleasing to the eye, not at all like 30 years old.

Thinking of how polite he was eating, Gu Mingxiao remembered the phone call yesterday.

I didn't think about it at the time, but now it seems that it's no wonder that it makes a soft sound like a cat.

Although it's not good to do that kind of thing in broad daylight, judging from Tang Liyin's attitude today, he should be pretending to be stupid, so he should cooperate and act as if he doesn't know.

After making up his mind, Gu Mingxiao called the waiter to put away the plate, took out the notebook, and continued the discussion after Tang Liyin came back.

They chatted until almost nine o'clock, and Tang Liyin made a preliminary decision after drinking a stomach full of lemonade.

Originally, he planned to do this first, but Gu Mingxiao was going on a business trip tomorrow, and he hoped to see the structure of the house on the ground tonight, so that he could draw the design first if he got inspired in the past few days.

Tang Liyin asked him to wait a while, and called to go home. Aunt Fen said that Xueqi was very obedient, and she took a shower and went to bed after eating and watching TV for a while.

Tang Liyin felt relieved, and drove Gu Mingxiao to No. [-] Park Road, and stayed there for about an hour before it was over.

He sent Gu Mingxiao back, and agreed to meet again after the design drawing was released.Half a month later, Gu Mingxiao called, but he said that today was inconvenient, the nanny was away due to something, and he had to take care of the children.

Gu Mingxiao just wanted to show him the design drawings, so he said that he could send them to him. He read them early, and if there were any problems, he could modify them as soon as possible.

Tang Liyin hesitated for a moment, and a faint cry of a child came over.Gu Mingxiao was about to ask what's the matter, when he heard his voice a little anxious: "Then I'll trouble you. I'll send you the address, and you can call when you arrive."
