Sir, How About A Marriage? Chapter 71 - Planning

Chapter 71 - Planning

Jiahui was confused.

Before Jiahui could ask any questions, Song Ning swiftly changed the topic. "Silly, I provided you with food and drinks, aren't you even going to ask me about this place?"

With these words, Jiahui seemed to have realized something. She looked around curiously as she said, "That's right! What kind of place is this, Song Ning? It's really beautiful!"

Although the first floor was still messy, its potential shone through. The hall on the left was very s.p.a.cious like an exhibition hall. Although it was Oriental-themed, the colors used were not intense like red or black. Instead, it was the soft color misty rain, stone green, the blue of the sea, and the white of moonlight. It was elegant and exquisite.

"Who designed this place? It's really tasteful. This kind of environment would make me feel embarra.s.sed for speaking loudly. Even if I'm not ladylike, I feel like I have to be more restrained. Otherwise, it'd feel like I'm committing a crime against this place!"

Song Ning could not help but smile. She picked up her gla.s.s and clinked it against Cheng Che's gla.s.s before she said, "Thank you, Cheng Che!"

Jiahui turned around to look at Cheng Che. "Handsome, you did this? Amazing!" After she finished speaking, she clinked her gla.s.s against Cheng Che's gla.s.s as well.

Cheng Che modestly replied, "There's Brother Chen as well. He keeps an eye over things."

Mu Chen looked at Cheng Che and said calmly, "You should take credit for your work…"

Cheng Che smiled fawningly as he said, "I don't dare, I don't dare."

"However, what's this place?" Jiahui asked.

"It's an embroidery shop," Song Ning replied as she placed food on Jiahui's plate.

"Wow, that's amazing. It looks high-end and cla.s.sy. Does President Mu own this place? No, it doesn't look like it. This kind of business is more feminine and not very popular. It belongs to you?" Jiahui speculated out loud.

Song Ning smiled. Jiahui was a very smart girl. "My mother left me this shop. I asked for Mu Chen and Cheng Che's help because I don't understand business management very well."

Jiahui's eyes widened in shock. "So this place really belongs to you?"

Song Ning nodded.

"Heavens! Song Ning, you're amazing! You really hid yourself very well. This shop really suits you; it suits your temperament." As usual, Jiahui was filled with nothing but praise for Song Ning.

At this moment, Cheng Che said, "Sister-in-law, the renovation will be completed in half a month. At that time, I plan to invite a few famous fas.h.i.+on designers over to discuss a collaboration. Embroidery is a very niche market, hence, I plan to popularize it by collaboration with famous fas.h.i.+on designers."

Song Ning said hesitantly, "My mother and Ms. Yun Yao had this thought before. However, they shelved the idea in the end due to the gap between embroidery and the fas.h.i.+on industry. I've thought about it as well, but I don't have any connections in the fas.h.i.+on industry."

Cheng Che said confidently, "You don't have to worry about this, sister-in-law. First, we'll position ourselves in an advantageous position. We won't be begging others to join us; we'll attract their attention instead. At that time, we can select a suitable candidate whose ideas align with ours from the crowd that swarms to our door!"

Song Ning was briefly stunned as she looked at Cheng Che whose face held a hint of pride.

Mu Chen patted her head. "Don't worry. Leave this matter to him. I'll help you keep an eye on him. I guarantee he won't act rashly and ruin the things your mother left behind."

Song Ning nodded solemnly. "Thank you, Cheng Che!"

Cheng Che scratched his head and chuckled, feeling slightly embarra.s.sed.

Jiahui asked, "What kind of fas.h.i.+on designer are you looking for?"

Cheng Che immediately began to excitedly explain his ideas and plans to Jiahui.

Jiahui listened as she ate with an expression of confusion on her face. When Cheng Che finished speaking, she shook her head and said, "I don't understand what you're saying."

Cheng Che deflated like a balloon as soon as he heard Jiahui's words. His expression was rather interesting to look at as well.

Song Ning could not help but laugh upon seeing this.

"I have a cousin who studied fas.h.i.+on design. She likes oriental clothing very much, to the point of being obsessed actually. She even won awards abroad. However, I heard her mother saying that her work isn't going well recently. It seems like her ideas aren't in line with her company's ideas so she resigned three months ago. Therefore, she's not been in the best mood recently. I didn't really pay attention, but I think she has traveled south to look for inspiration. I… If it'll help, I can invite her over to have a look. What do you think?" Jiahui asked tentatively.

Song Ning's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this. She instinctively looked at Mu Chen.

Mu Chen nodded.

However, before Mu Chen could speak, Cheng Che hurriedly said, "Sure! Let's arrange a meetup!"

After that, Cheng Che continued to speak to Jiahui excitedly. When they finished eating, he brought her around the studio. It was very lively.

Song Ning could not help but laugh upon seeing this. Currently, Cheng Che looked as though his first priority was pursuing Jiahui while work ranked second.

Mu Chen squeezed Song Ning's hand lightly. "Don't worry. This kid knows what he's doing, and he won't act rashly."

Upon hearing his words, Song Ning could not help but ask curiously, "Are the two of you related?"
