Half a month later, Huang Panpan reported back to the company and became a formal employee of New Century. However, Xiaoxuemei did not receive any special treatment for the time being. After all, compared with Qin Shiqing, as a rookie her abilities were indeed limited and she still needed some training.
Of course, with Su Zelin around, Huang Panpan will definitely have a chance, but she will have to wait until she has more experience and learns more.
The next day after returning to Lin'an, Huang Panpan asked Su Zelin out after get off work, with the purpose of taking a look at her house in Phoenix Plaza and giving some advice on decoration.
Although the house was bought by her parents, Huang Panpan also hoped that her man would like the decoration style. What's more, Su Zelin was knowledgeable and must know how to decorate better than she did.
As Huang Panpan strolled around Phoenix Plaza, she met an "acquaintance" - Wei Xian - at the gate of the community.
Huang Panpan’s high school classmate and best friend also stayed in Lin’an to work after graduating from Zhejiang University and got a stable job in a state-owned enterprise.
After all, he is a top student who graduated from Zhejiang University. In today's world where college students are as numerous as dogs and doctoral students are everywhere, he is very popular, let alone in this era.
This time, Xiaoxuemei called Wei Xian over to act as a light bulb, because she wanted to refer to her bestie's ideas on the decoration.
Moreover, Wei Xian is now her roommate.
Before the house is renovated, they have to rent a house outside temporarily, so Huang Panpan and her best friend live together temporarily. Anyway, Wei Xian doesn’t have a boyfriend yet, so there is no inconvenience.
Moreover, even after the house is renovated in the future, she may go to her best friend's place often. After all, Su Zelin cannot accompany her all day long and can only meet her occasionally in private. So it is not so boring to have the company of a good sister.
Huang Panpan originally planned to pay the full rent. After all, she was a wealthy woman and couldn’t be short of that little money.
"Hi, Wei Xian, long time no see!"
In fact, he was not very familiar with Wei Xian, but he had met her many times because of Huang Panpan. However, Su Zelin still took the initiative to say hello to her.
"Hello, Senior Su."
Wei Xian nodded slightly.
"I heard from Panpan that you joined Lin'an Urban Construction Investment Group, which is one of the most powerful state-owned enterprises in the provincial capital. You have a promising future!"
Su Zelin talked about work.
"It's OK, just to make a living."
Having said that, Wei Xian was a little proud.
Her company is indeed very good and ranks among the state-owned enterprises in Lin'an. Even many of her classmates are envious of it. After graduation, her parents told everyone that their daughter had joined Lin'an Urban Construction.
Su Zelin added: "Come to think of it, I've had dinner with your boss twice."
Wei Xian: “…”
Well, not on the same level at all.
"Senior, is that true? Next time when you have dinner with Boss Xiaoxian, can you say a few good words for her so that she can get the opportunity sooner?"
Although Huang Panpan values women over friends, she still cares a lot about her best friend's affairs.
Before Su Zelin could answer, Wei Xian said with shame: "Pan Pan, what are you thinking? Our boss may not even know the name of a rookie like me!"
"I'll know once the senior mentions it. Maybe he can give me some special care!"
Huang Panpan said with a smile.
As they were talking, they walked into the residential complex and took the elevator to the apartment, which was located on the 29th floor.
Currently, the tallest building in Lin'an is the Long-Distance Telecommunications Hub Building, which has a total height of 248 meters and 41 floors. It was built in 2003. This commercial building in Phoenix Plaza has a total of 33 floors, which is considered outstanding in Lin'an.
The value of this property appreciated very quickly, and it later became one of the most expensive second-hand commercial properties in Lin'an.
After entering the house, Huang Panpan took the two of them for a walk around the house. She first asked her good sister: "Xiao Xian, what kind of decoration do you think is beautiful?"
"Come on, I don't understand this."
Wei Xian shrugged: "I just followed a little rich woman like you here to learn some tricks, you should ask the senior."
Wei Xian is self-aware. With her poor vision and knowledge, she can only give bad advice to her best friend.
So Huang Panpan turned her gaze to Su Zelin again.
"Your house is very big, so it would be suitable for a more grand style, but at the same time it shouldn't appear too deserted. I think the French style would be more suitable."
Su Zelin considered for a moment and then spoke.
“What does French style look like?”
Huang Panpan was a little curious.
She knew several common styles, such as the European style of her own Jiang Lan's house, as well as Chinese, modern, pastoral, etc.
“This style of decoration pursues natural design as the central concept, creating an experience of integration with nature to reflect the original texture and visual aesthetics.”
"In terms of main colors, French decoration is mainly fresh, warm and elegant, such as beige and milk coffee, which is different from the strong and rough American style. Although both are grand decoration styles, the French style is more delicate and romantic, and is more suitable for girls than European and American styles."
Su Zelin gave a brief description.
The house has two living rooms and six bedrooms, with a total area of 187 square meters. It seems a bit big for her to live in alone. The modern style and light luxury style will make it seem too empty and deserted.
The pastoral style and Japanese style are also warm and natural, but the former does not suit Huang Panpan's identity as a rich lady. As for the latter, considering historical reasons, it is simply because Su Zelin does not like it, there is no other reason.
Another very important point is that house decoration not only depends on the type and area of the house, but also on the owner's personality.
Compared with the light luxury style of Song Yuwei's suite in West Lake Impression Fengyue, the French style has a stronger homely feel in visual effects.
Considering Huang Panpan's past experience of being self-isolated and withdrawn, which is a manifestation of her inner lack of love, a warm home decoration would please her more.
In fact, my junior high school sister in this life is much better than that in the previous life.
In her previous life, she had been unwilling to forgive Huang Hongbo and Li Juan because of her grandmother's death. She was indifferent to her parents and had almost no friends around her. The only person she had a good relationship with was Wei Xian, and everyone revolved around her.
This is also the reason why Huang Panpan is willing to cling to Su Zelin until her death. She has regarded the admiration and pursuit of Hunzi as her spiritual support to an almost pathological level. Once Su Zelin disappears from her life, her whole world will collapse.
However, she broke the ice with her parents in this life and accepted family love again. She also got along well with not only Wei Xian but also her former college roommates. Two of them stayed in Lin'an to work, and they would occasionally get together when they were free. During her internship at the company, she also got to know several colleagues who were also interns.
In general, her circle of contacts and network are already that of an ordinary person, unlike in her previous life when she was all alone and pitiful.
“This decoration style sounds pretty good!”
After listening to it, my junior high school sister liked it very much.
Warmth and romance, this is exactly the life she pursues.
"Xiao Xian, what do you think?"
"Senior Su is right. Girls need to live a more refined life."
As she was just a layman, Wei Xian dared not doubt Su Zelin's aesthetic taste.
Seeing that her bestie agreed, Huang Panpan clapped her hands and said, "French style is fine then. I'll go find a decoration company tomorrow!"
Su Zelin said quickly: "Pan Pan, don't rush to make a decision. I'm just giving you some personal suggestions. Decoration is not a trivial matter. You should think it over carefully first. It's not too late to discuss it with your parents."
"It's okay, senior. My parents said that you can do whatever you want with the decoration as long as I like it. Besides, I believe in your vision!"
"In that case, then all right."
"… "
After the decoration was finalized, we left the building and had dinner together.
After dinner, Su Zelin sent Huang Panpan and Wei Xian back to the rented apartment and left first as he had other social engagements in the evening.
Watching the Audi go away, Wei Xian couldn't help but speak up: "Pan Pan, are you really going to continue like this with Senior?"
She is the only one who knows about the relationship between her junior high school sister and Su Zelin.
"Of course, I pursued him for so many years before he accepted me. How could I give up? Besides, there is no other man as good as him in the world!"
Huang Panpan said without thinking.
"I know that the senior is very good, but he is really too outstanding. Such a man will not belong to you alone. Apart from other things, there is also a senior sister Shiqing!"
"Have you never thought about what would happen if, I mean what if, one day, the senior sister found out about what happened between you two?"
Wei Xian asked tentatively.
Su Zelin is Huang Panpan's taboo, the dragon's reverse scale. Wei Xian has never dared to talk about their relationship, especially to persuade them to break up, but she also doesn't want her best friend to completely lose herself for love, so she finally reminded her again.
"It's okay. Don't you know Senior Sister Shiqing's temper?"
Huang Panpan disagreed: "Besides, she took good care of me in the company. During my internship, she even invited me to her rental house for dinner a few times."
Wei Xian: “…”
Well, speaking of which, Senior Sister Shiqing is indeed very generous.
Doesn't she know how Panpan feels about Senior Su? It's amazing that she can be so magnanimous.
Is she planning to accept Panpan
An absurd thought popped up in Wei Xian's mind, but then she shook her head.
How is that possible? This is the 21st century, not a feudal society, and Senior Sister Shiqing is a highly educated person.
But then again, many of the wives of wealthy families in Hong Kong have received higher education, and they turn a blind eye to their husbands having mistresses outside.
If Senior Su can handle both Senior Shiqing and Panpan at the same time, I will be really impressed.
Wei Xian was about to say something but was interrupted by Huang Panpan.
"Xiao Xian, have you ever imagined what would happen today if I hadn't met you, senior?"
Wei Xian couldn't help but be stunned. She had indeed never thought about this question.
But the answer is obvious.
Panpan is likely to still be that problem girl, doing her own thing, being rebellious and willful, not taking her parents seriously, and having no other friends except herself. Even if she is admitted to university, she will probably only be able to study in a crappy college.
In a word, her life may be a mess.
The appearance of Su Zelin did make her feel stuck in a dead end emotionally, but her life is back on track.
"It was my senior who made me believe in family and this world again, and brought back my long-lost smile and happiness. My senior has become a belief to me. You will never understand how important he is to me. I will never leave him even if I die. This is the last time we talk about this topic. Don't mention it again in the future, otherwise I will be unhappy!"
The junior high school girl had a serious expression on her face.
"Okay, I won't tell you. This is the last time. I swear!"
Wei Xian felt helpless.
She didn't dare to doubt her best friend's seriousness at all.
If I continue to persuade her, the good sisters will really become estranged from each other.
"That's more like it!"
