Chapter 634: Phoenix Nest

Lin Yunan was very efficient. A few days later, he rented the building.
On this day, Xia Ling got up in the morning and saw a man standing beside the low fence door. The thin morning light fell on his cold and beautiful face, painting his white clothes extraordinarily.
“Brother.” She called in surprise and ran over to open the door.
Xia Moyan lowered his head to look at his sister. It seemed that she was a little thinner than the last time he saw her. Luckily, she was in good spirits as her smile was not fake. He sized up the yard. The ivy and night willow herbs were lush. Everything was almost the same since the last time he left not long ago.
He was satisfied with this.
Xia Ling curiously asked, “Brother, what are you looking at?”
Xia Moyan said, “The last time, I helped you sort out the feng shui in the yard. It seems you’ve maintained it well. You have to continue doing this, understand?”
Xia Ling nodded obediently. Her brother was an expert in this area and had excellent aesthetics. Thanks to him, her courtyard looked like a piece of art. She asked him curiously, “Why are you here? Is there something important?” She was very clear that she had the life of a widow and had to be separated from her family. Usually, her brother deliberately avoided contact with her. Now that he suddenly appeared here without warning, something must have happened.
Sure enough, Xia Moyan said, “Have you rented the office building? Come, let’s look at it together.”
“Huh?” Only then did Xia Ling react. In their last call, her brother said that he would help her renovate the building. It looked like he was serious. She smiled and said, “Sure. Let me call Lin Yunan. He’s in charge of the renovation. If you have any suggestions later, he will be the one in charge of looking for a contractor.”
“No need for that.” Xia Moyan said. “I’ve already looked for the contractor and hired an interior designer and a supplier for materials. These people have worked with the Xia Family for a long time and know how to ensure that the feng shui is optimum. If I find an ordinary contractor, it will be very troublesome to coordinate the project.”
Xia Ling thought so as well.
“So I don’t need to ask Lin Yunan to come over?” She asked.
However, Xia Moyan said, “You know what, ask him to come as well. In the future, you have to rely on him whenever there are problems and maintenance issues.”
Xia Ling nodded. She called Lin Yunan and told him to meet them in front of the building.
Xia Ling and her brother drove over.
That was a very grand building. It was 18 stories high and its exterior was very elegantly and artistically designed. In front of the main entrance, two strangers with tools were chatting. After seeing them get off the car, they greeted them and said very respectfully to Xia Moyan, “Mr. Xia.”
They were the engineering team that frequently worked with the Xia Family. They were very clear that Xia Moyan was The Preceptor but did not know the identity of the petite girl beside him. In front of others, they usually did not call him The Preceptor in case someone recognized him.
Xia Ling looked at them curiously. The two men looked very unique as they had a restrained yet confident attitude. They should be experts in their field.
Xia Moyan introduced them to her. “This is Zhang Gong and this is Master Ouyang. Many famous buildings in the world were designed by them.” He reported the names of a few buildings and, sure enough, they were well known.
Xia Ling was always respectfully towards those with skills. Politely, she said, “Nice to meet you, Zhang Gong and Master Ouyang.”
Calmly, Xia Moyan said to her, “You don’t have to be so polite. They aren’t worthy.”
Xia Ling was taken aback.
Even the two masters were startled. Who exactly was this girl in front of them? How could it be that they were not worthy of her politeness? She should know that they were famous in the architectural world and many people worshiped and fawned over them.
Both of them looked at each other suspiciously.
Xia Moyan said, “Both of you are here to help Xiao Ling renovate this place. I won’t hide this from you. Xiao Ling is the Xia Family’s Phoenix. Your ancestors worked for the Xia Family, so I’m sure you know what it means to be a Phoenix of the Xia Family.”
The two of them were shocked. My god…
Phoenix!
Legend has it that every Phoenix of the Xia Family has to be discarded from birth because it’s cursed with a lonely life and can never have any familial relations for a lifetime. It could only return to the family through mysterious conditions.
Zhang Gong and Master Ouyang were outsiders, so they didn’t know what the mysterious conditions were. However, they knew how rare a Phoenix of the Xia Family was. It was extremely rare for a Phoenix to reconnect with the family, and it was treated like a precious treasure. In this case, even if they had the guts to offend ten preceptors, they would never dare to offend a Phoenix of the Xia Family.
The two of them quickly stood up straight and quickly said that they were not worthy.
Would it really distort their luck?
Xia Ling was half-doubtful and stopped being respectful to them.
The two master architects were filled with excitement. They never expected to personally see a Phoenix of the Xia Family alive! Oh my god… it’s so exciting! They were even able to build a building for the Phoenix!
“Yes, you’re going to build the building for the Phoenix.” Xia Moyan directed them inside and said, “All of the wood has to be sycamore. Its sound has to be deep yet quiet when you hit it. As for the other details, I will explain them to you elsewhere.”
Both of them quickly agreed. They could not suppress their emotions. They had a hunch that this renovation would be the best work of their careers!
Soon, Lin Yunan also rushed over.
Seeing Xia Moyan, he critically sized him up and asked Xia Ling, “Who is he?”
Xia Ling did not know how to explain her brother’s identity, and her brother warned her before not to let too many people know about it. After some thought, she said, “Anyway, he’s someone I trust. He helped us look for interior designers and contractors to renovate the entire building.”
Suspiciously, Lin Yunan asked, “Is he reliable?”
Xia Ling told him about the buildings that the two masters had created.
Lin Yunan was shocked. “Those are masterpieces! How did you get to hire such people?” His impression of Xia Moyan changed.
Xia Ling casually glossed over the situation. She looked at the large empty space and said, “I’m the only singer in this entire company. I’m not going to hire too many people, so I’m not planning on creating many departments. Is such a huge space going to waste?”
The floor plan of this building was no less than Skyart’s.
Xia Moyan said, “I’m only in charge of feng shui. As for the usage of the space, that’s up to you. You’re in charge.”
Xia Ling walked around the building and gradually had an idea. “Let’s create an exhibition. Besides the office and meeting area, use the rest of the place to create an exhibition hall. Put some of my endorsements and works there. We can even let the fans visit it.”
“That’s a good idea.” Lin Yunan said, “This will become your fans’ holy ground.”
Xia Moyan also said, “Ok, let’s do it.”
The group of people spent an entire day and finally worked out a complete renovation plan.
