Chapter 159 - Just this
Hearing Xue Yuning's words, Jiang Hao also rushed up to have a look.
To be honest, Jiang Hao belonged to the layman of laymen when it came to such things as decoration, and could be called the fighter of them all.
Basically, he was a novice and didn't know shit.
But even so, when he saw the decoration design in Xue Yuning's hand, he lit up.
The style was so unique that it was a far cry from the previous designs.
The previous ten or so design proposals, the main thing that stood out, was basically a theme, which was luxury and grandeur.
However, Jiang Hao did not like this style at all.
Although he was also considered a rich man, after all, he was also poor in the past, but in his opinion, that kind of old-fashioned style of either gold and blue or luxurious mahogany was too low and tasteless.
If he used this kind of decoration for his own villa, he would simply be trashing the house and spoiling things.
What comes out in the end will either be uninspiring or ridiculed.
There is no style of your own at all, no unique mood at all.
Besides, this style is too common, and Jiang Hao doesn't really like to make everything the same as everyone else.
He preferred to be a bit of a maverick.
However, the design in Xue Yuning's hand at this moment was just the right kind of design to meet the feeling Jiang Hao wanted.
It was a design that highlighted the relationship between the environment and people, with the main body of the design being pure white and some minor changes to the exterior of the villa to make it more in keeping with the overall style.
The entire area of the villa will then be transformed into a tranquil and relaxed environment.
The white exterior, with some antique details, and a layer of bamboo and greenery on the exterior of the building, make the entire villa seem hidden in nature, separated from the hustle and bustle of the outside world.
The woods with birdsong and flowers, the quiet stream winding through the front of the villa, a small bridge and a small pavilion, complement each other like a dream.
Although the atmosphere of the villa is generally in natural harmony, the overall construction of the villa, however, highlights a sense of technology.
The interior of the villa, according to the design proposal, is almost entirely constructed using the most current technology to make life easier and more comfortable.
With both picturesque scenery and technological experience, one would simply feel like a god when living in such a comfortable environment.
"Yes, this design plan is fantastic, not to mention you, I'm also impressed." Jiang Hao smiled and said to Xue Yuning, "How about we book this?"
When Xue Yuning heard Jiang Hao's words, she seemed a little hesitant and pointed to the other designs to the side and said, "Why don't we take a look at the others, just in case there's something you like better."
Jiang Hao nudged Xue Yuning's forehead with his finger and laughed heatedly, "Silly girl, what you like is what I like best. Besides, I've just looked at all those, and they're simply too different from this one, no more, just this design, not to mention, I really like this design too much."
Qiao San, who was at the side, saw Jiang Hao praising the design so unstintingly, he smiled and came up and said, "Young Master Jiang, you and Young Madam's vision is too good, to be honest, I also think this design is fantastic."
Qiao San hurriedly continued, "Don't think I'm flattering you, I'm not. To be honest, I've been in the hotel industry for so many years, and I've been dealing with decoration for decades, so I can tell at a glance if a design is good or not, but honestly, this plan really makes me feel amazing, it's really great. I invested several hundred million dollars in the ecological hotel built according to the seven-star standard in Chujiang East, in fact, I want to make it into your style, I have asked a designer from Singapore, but I feel that the design scheme is still quite poor compared to yours."
In fact, Qiao San said he wasn't flattering, but there was still a bit of it.
But he wasn't lying either, he had been working in hotels for so many years, he was as clear as a mirror when it came to things like decoration, he could tell the difference between good and bad at a glance.
But the design that Xue Yuning had chosen, he truly thought it was great.
However, when Qiao San looked at the booklet, he frowned slightly, because he seemed to realise that he did not remember who had given him this design plan.
Almost all of the designs here had been commissioned by Qiao San from friends or design companies that he often worked with, so he could basically tell which company had designed them.
However, the brochure in Xue Yu Ning's hand really made him a bit confused.
However, seeing that Jiang Hao was in the middle of something, Qiao San didn't say anything more, for fear of spoiling Jiang Hao's good mood later.
Hearing that Qiao San was so sure of the design, Jiang Hao's heart was obviously even more positive about the design.
Jiang Hao looked at Qiao San and said, "Mr. Qiao, it's settled then, let's use this design plan.
Jiang Hao scratched his head and said with a smile, "But I'm not experienced in this kind of decoration, so I hope you can help me with it."
When Qiao San heard that, he hurriedly nodded his head, "Fine, fine, no problem, don't worry, Jiang Shao, I will take care of the decoration of your villa, I will do my best. Please show me the design plan you have in your hand, I'll see which company it's from, and I'll contact that company directly later."
Jiang Hao nodded and didn't think much about it, and directly handed the design proposal to Qiao San.
Qiao San looked directly at the title page at the back of the design proposal, but just as he saw the decoration company stated at the back, his entire body couldn't help but stare.
"Dad, what's wrong?" Qiao Dong, who was at the side, seemed to have sensed a hint of something wrong and hurried over, asking in a low voice, "Is there something wrong?"
Qiao Dong followed his own father's line of sight and also looked at the name of the company stated on that title page.
Only when he looked at it, Qiao Dong couldn't help but have his face change abruptly, and surprisingly, he didn't say anything for a long time.
Jiang Hao also saw that there was something wrong with the two fathers and sons, and hurriedly asked with a frown, "What's wrong Mr Qiao?"
Qiao San was called back to his senses by Jiang Hao, his face was a little unpleasant, his finger pointed to the title page and said, "Jiang Shao you, you read it yourself or"
Jiang Hao's frown deepened as he hurriedly took the title page and glanced at it, his gaze instantly falling on top of the name of that company.
"Chujiang City Donglin Decoration and Design Company" Jiang Hao silently read that name out, then the whole person also froze.
"This," Jiang Hao gave Xue Yu Ning a look, wanting to say something.
This was too much of a coincidence, wasn't it?
He had looked at so many design proposals, but in the end he didn't like any, but finally there was one that he really liked, and it ended up being such a coincidence that it was made by Wang Jiani's father's company?
Jiang Hao simply did not know what to say, because he remembered that just now, he had said that no matter what kind of design Wang Donglin's company made, he would not want it, but this was too quick to hit his face, right?
Jiang Hao couldn't help but hesitate for a while, and finally dropped his gaze on Xue Yuning's body.
At this time, Xue Yuning also understood what was going on, and also felt that this matter was a bit difficult to deal with.
For one thing, she genuinely liked this design scheme.
In every girl's mind, she has a vision of her future home, and although everyone's fantasy is not the same, she still wants to be close to the most ideal direction in her mind.
Obviously, Wang Donglin's design plan has hit the softest spot in Xue Yu Ning's heart with unparalleled precision.
Almost every landscape and building in the design is the most beautiful one in Xue Yu-ning's mind.
She loves this design from the bottom of her heart.
But now, the problem was that such a perfect design came from Wang Jiani's father's company.
To be honest, deep down, Xue Yuning also rejected Wang Jiani and her father's design company.
She did not expect that Wang Jiani's father's design company would come up with such a perfect design.
But Jiang Hao had already made it very clear that no matter what, he would not want Wang Donglin's design company even if they designed the Heavenly Palace.
Xue Yuning did not want to go against Jiang Hao's wishes, and she did not want to make things difficult for Jiang Hao.
But she really liked this design scheme!
For Xue Yuning, it was a dilemma to decide.
So after Jiang Hao asked herself, Xue Yuning fell into a long contemplation.
She thought about it for a long time
"Yu Ning?" Jiang Hao called out softly to Xue Yu Ning, which pulled Xue Yu Ning's thoughts back from afar.
"Ah? Oh," Xue Yuning smiled awkwardly and looked at Jiang Hao, at this moment, she already had an answer in her own mind.
Xue Yuning smiled at Jiang Hao and ripped the design proposal out of Jiang Hao's hand, then threw it aside with a jerk.
Xue Yuning smiled and said, "I don't like this proposal anymore, let's look at something else."
Xue Yuning's attitude appeared resolute, but Jiang Hao could naturally see that Xue Yuning had said this on purpose and was deliberately so speechless.
She was trying to save her own face, and Jiang Hao knew how much Xue Yuning liked this design.
Xue Yuning's action, apart from making Jiang Hao's heart grateful, made him feel a little uncomfortable.
However, at this moment, Xue Yuning seemed to have made up her mind, not even looking at the design she had thrown away, but directly picking up the design that she had just passed away with a glance and reading it from the beginning.
While looking at it, Xue Yuning smiled and said, "Look, I guess I wasn't looking too carefully just now, but I think this design style is quite nice too. This golden backdrop design, and the marble fence outside, especially this crystal chandelier in the middle"
Jiang Hao could naturally see that Xue Yuning was faking all this for herself, she was just doing it so she wouldn't be embarrassed.
Xue Yuning was still looking, looking very carefully
Jiang Hao looked at the design that Xue Yuning had thrown away, and hesitated a little.
Finally, Jiang Hao made a move, he walked over and picked up the booklet that Xue Yuning had thrown away, the moment he picked it up, Jiang Hao had already made up his mind, his heart was no longer torn, and his face even showed a smile that hung openly.
"Mr. Qiao." Jiang Hao walked up to Qiao San and Xue Yu Ning's side and smiled as he said to Qiao San, "Go contact Wang Donglin, their company's design proposal, it's been adopted."
The moment Jiang Hao said this, it was like a shock to the sky, not only was Qiao San flabbergasted, even Xue Yu Ning looked up in dismay, looking at Jiang Hao with a look of disbelief.
"I'll ask them to find some top international home design companies and they will definitely be able to come up with a design that is ten times better than this one.
Obviously, Qiao San was a bit angry for Jiang Hao's sake.
But Jiang Hao was smiling as he looked at Xue Yuning and said, "No, this is just fine, as long as Yuning likes it, I'll do whatever I want."
Chapter 160 - Cloud Mist Manor
Hearing Jiang Hao's words, Xue Yuning was simply touched to the point of tears.
Xue Yuning certainly understood how much Jiang Hao had to sacrifice for himself this time.
He was a character that even a Chu River lord like Qiao San had to bow down to his ears, and now for the sake of a design plan, he even had to bow down to Wang Jiani, to someone like Wang Donglin, who was not even in the class.
To Jiang Hao, this was not only a loss of face, but also a loss of dignity.
Although Xue Yu Ning was not sure if Jiang Hao also had his own kind of rich second generation, second generation coterie.
If so, it is estimated that because of this matter, Jiang Hao could not even lift his head in front of his colleagues afterwards, and would probably be laughed at by others for a long time.
This matter was simply not a matter of a simple design scheme, but a matter involving dignity.
"No, Jiang Hao, I said it, I don't like that design proposal anymore, let's not!" Xue Yuning looked resolute and was directly about to go forward and snatch the booklet out of Jiang Hao's hand.
But Jiang Hao dodged it, he smiled and shook his head slightly at Xue Yuning, "Nonsense, don't think I can't tell, you like this design too much, I think if you miss this design, you might not even like it more in the future, so I don't want you to miss it, Yuning!"
At this moment, Jiang Hao's attitude also seemed very resolute, and since he had already decided on something, it would definitely not be changed.
He had already made up his mind that he was going to decide on this design.
Seeing the two of them arguing, the two Qiao fathers and sons at the side also looked very embarrassed.
Qiao Dong could not help but steal a glance at his own father, obviously asking what to do.
But whatever he did or said now, it probably wouldn't be too good.
If one supported Xue Yuning, it was estimated that Jiang Hao would be very unhappy.
But if he supported Jiang Hao, whether Xue Yuning was happy or not was another matter, and in case Jiang Hao really became a laughing stock in the future because of this matter, then later on Jiang Hao would look back and remember that he had supported him in making this decision, and he would put all the blame on himself in the future.
Of course, Qiao San did not know Jiang Hao that well, but he knew a lot about this kind of second-worlder, who was always shifty and uncertain.
Qiao San felt a certain dilemma for a while.
But at that moment, his mind suddenly struck a brilliant idea.
Qiao San hurriedly interrupted Jiang Hao and said with a smile, "Jiang Shao, in fact, I think there is another way to avoid you being ridiculed in the future, and you can still get this design!"
When Jiang Hao heard Qiao San's words, he was immediately intrigued and hurriedly said, "Oh? Really? Then tell us what to do."
Qiao San heatedly smiled and continued, "Here's the thing, since Miss Yu Ning really likes this design, I think it would be better for me to find a friend to buy this design in the name of someone else or another company and move the flowers around. It's unlikely that Wang Donglin would believe that this is what we did anyway?"
"If we turn around and the right to use this design plan falls into our hands, we can use this design plan without worrying about being laughed at, won't this kill two birds with one stone?"
After saying these words, Qiao San couldn't help but feel a little smug, because he himself felt that this solution was simply too good to be true.
"Right, this is a good solution!" When Qiao Dong heard Qiao San's solution, he could not help but say, "This solution is really good, this way, that Wang Donglin will definitely have nothing to say, and we can still continue to use this design plan, killing two birds with one stone, and no one else will have an opinion. And Jiang, my father and I can take care of this for you, you don't have to show up at all."
This was indeed a good solution, at least it would save Jiang Hao's face.
Otherwise, if Wang Donglin and his daughter found out that Jiang Hao would continue to use their design, they would probably float to the sky and might say something.
At first hearing about this solution, Jiang Hao couldn't help but feel a bit moved, after all, who doesn't love their reputation?
But soon, Jiang Hao's slightly agitated face calmed down again.
He looked at Qiao San, shook his head and said, "Forget it, I appreciate your kindness, but I am a person who likes to be practical and doesn't like to do things that are crooked, so you should go ahead with this matter."
When Jiang Hao said this, he couldn't help but smile again as if he was laughing to himself and continued, "Wang Jiani and his father don't believe that I bought that villa anyway, so why should I bother getting involved with them so much. Mr. Qiao, just do as you're told, and don't worry, whatever goes wrong in this matter, it has nothing to do with you, I'll take all the responsibility myself."
"This," Qiao San smiled, his face was a bit unpleasant, but since Jiang Hao had already said this, he would not say anything more.
"Jiang Hao, I really don't want that design," Xue Yu Ning blushed slightly and looked at Jiang Hao, "You should know what kind of person Grandma Wang Jiani is, if she knows about this, she will definitely laugh at you and will probably spread the word about it everywhere, then you"
Jiang Hao smiled and raised his hand to indicate Xue Yuning to stop talking, while he himself said, "Don't worry, I know what's going on in my heart."
Seeing that Jiang Hao's mind was already made up, Xue Yuning seemed to have stopped insisting, as she knew very well that she could not argue with Jiang Hao at all, and could only nod silently as a tacit agreement.
Seeing this, I couldn't say much to Qiao San, he heaved a sigh and spoke, "Ai, then it's alright then Jiang Shao, I'll go deal with it then"
Having said that, Qiao San was about to turn his head and leave.
However, before he could leave, he was once again called to stop by Jiang Hao.
"Mr. Qiao, please wait a moment." Jiang Hao suddenly thought of what Xue Yuning had told himself earlier about her family relatives coming to Chu Jiang, "I have something that I still want to ask of Mr Qiao."
Qiao San grinned at his words, "Hey, Jiang Shao, if you have something to say, just say it, why are you so polite with me?
This Qiao San was really good at talking, which made Jiang Hao a bit embarrassed to open his mouth.
"That is like this, in a couple of days, Yu Ning has some relatives who may want to come to Chu Jiang to play, so I hope that Mr. Qiao can see if you can reserve a few rooms for them in this Howlite Hotel?"
Hearing about Xue Yuning's relatives, Qiao San immediately nodded in agreement: "No problem, it's not a big deal, don't worry about it, I'll definitely handle it smoothly for you, I'll have someone arrange it in advance."
After he finished speaking, Qiao San was about to go on, but he had just taken two steps away when he stopped again, he looked at Jiang Hao with a smile on his face and continued to speak, "Jiang Shao, I think we should entertain the six cars at the Grand Hyatt Hotel!"
Jiang Hao froze for a moment at Qiao San's words and said with some embarrassment, "What, Mr. Qiao, are you backtracking?"
Qiao San hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Hearing this from Qiao San, Jiang Hao immediately took the plunge: "Well, then, it will go to the Cloud Mist Manor, then please Qiao General you to arrange it."
Qiao San heatedly smiled: "Look at what you're saying, what's the trouble, you don't even see what our family does, don't worry, from tomorrow onwards, I'll order down and leave a few of the best rooms, when you bring people to check in, just say my name."
Jiang Hao nodded at his words, but just when everything seemed to have been decided, Xue Yuning, who was on the side, suddenly spoke up.
"Come on Jiang Hao, just make some casual arrangements, why are you arranging such a nice place?"
Of course Xue Yuning was a bit angry, for those people who had bullied her and her mother, could she not only not hold a grudge against them, but also treat them with hospitality?
The Grand Hyatt Hotel seemed extravagant enough, did she have to change to something better?
