Chapter 130 - Southville Project

Today Xi Ana went to observe on the site of the Southville Project, she didn't even go to the office and just started her day her. So far this project is the biggest one she had to handle ever since she started working in the company.

"Are there any problems with the progress of the construction?"

She is currently talking with the engineer in charge who is also the head of the engineering department of X Corporation, as a hotel and restaurant company they have to make sure that each and every building they construct would be of high quality so they created a department solely dedicated on it.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click <a href="#&apos;s-wife-has-a-secret_14496266906619705/southville-project_50907534495641718">#&apos;s-wife-has-a-secret_14496266906619705/southville-project_50907534495641718</a> for visiting.

"There was a delay with the shipment of some the materials that were needed but it won't pose a problem since those materials were not yet needed at this stage."

"If it's like that then it's fine but just in case, notify them again. We can't tolerate anything that might delay us on our schedule."

"I understand, president."

From obtaining the land, to contract signing, to finding inventors, up to this phase Xi Ana had poured more time and attention to this more than anybody else so things like delays and mistakes, she won't tolerate them not even in the slightest.

"President, regarding the center piece."

The centerpiece would be a statue that would be constructed at the center of this place. "What about it? Isn't that also given to Lim Corporation? Furthermore, didn't I already choose a design last time and it was just sent back for some details I wanted to be fixed." although this Southville project is also given to Lim Corporation for the center piece there is actually a different set of contract.

Considering that factor, the center piece should be eye catching not only at first site but it should be something like someone can't take their gaze away from it, that's the kind of design they were aiming for.

"They already sent the final design after the editing it's just that in the design they sent they also incorporated the logo of Lim Corporation."

These words made her frown, "Into which part exactly?"

"The logo of Lim Corporation was placed beside ours."

Her eyebrows arched, if their logo was placed beside theirs it would be easily interpreted as a joint project instead of a collaboration.

"Have someone sent the output to me."

"Yes, president."

No matter how one would look at it they can't put their logo into the design, aside from it's not part of the contract that mere act of putting their logo is like a big marketing activity on their part, they ill basically use Southville project for their own personal goal.

Xi Ana walked towards the tent which was allocated as her resting area although she only go her for a few times whenever she's here, most of the time he is outside talking with the engineers of this project.

"President, you should take a little rest." Hannah gave her a bottled water as she approached her.

She took the bottle and asked, "Do you know who is in charge of the center piece in Lim Corporation's side?"

"I'm not sure about the exact person who is creating the design but I guess the final say in everything about this collaboration is from their vice president."

She already know that this is something Lim Yi Sheng has no knowledge of, they may be husband and wife but when it comes to things that like this they have to be completely professional and even Lim Yi Sheng would agree that their logo should not be placed there.

All their work for this project were already paid as per the contract that both parties have sent, it is not entirely impossible for their logo to be incorporated but the placement should be changed and of course if that happens they will also need to pay Xi Corporation for it.

"Then set up a meeting with me and their vice president, emphasize that I want to meet who designed the center piece as well."

The person who decided this on his own must have great confidence that his plan will work, well taken into consideration that she and Lim Yi Sheng are husband and wife it could have been easy but they forgot that both them were professionals who would not use personal relationship in work.

"I'll work on it, president."

She might as well mention this matter to Lim Yi Sheng tonight since they will be having a dinner outside. This will give him the opportunity to sort out his people again.

Xi Ana just came from observing on site and so she said that her clothes were not appropriate so they had to go to Xi Corporation and change since this is closer than Imperial.

It didn't take long before Xi Ana went out of her dressing room already in a knee-length white dress and seeing this Lim Yi Sheng can't help but smile. In his wife's closet most of the dresses were black and white and they are not, they will be beige or something like that. You can't really see clothes with bright colors.

"What are you smiling for, are you falling in love with me even more now?"

"Of course I do, every time I see you I always keep on falling in love with you over and over again."

Xi Ana chuckled at his response, "You seem to be so accustomed to saying these kinds of words without thinking whether it's shameless or not."

"Don't worry I can only say these things in front of you. Let's go?"

"Okay."

With his hand on her back he guided her all the way to the parking lot. He only started the car when the both of them are finally settled inside.

"Is there something special today that you wanted to have dinner outside?" Xi Ana asked as she looked at the man who busy maneuvering the wheel to get out of the parking space.

"Should there be a need for a special reason for me to ask my beautiful wife on a date?" after a while he finally got out of the parking space and they are already driving on the main road.

"Well, it's really been a while since we ate out. We're kind of too busy these past months."

They were really busy, on top of them being already workaholic people especially his wife they have a lot of works on their plate.

This is also because they needed to clear their schedule by the end of this year so they could have time for the preparation of their wedding next year as they have promised their elders.

"Yeah, you're too busy that you don't even have spare time for me already." he said half-jokingly.

"I know, I know. Can you please forgive your workaholic wife, dear?"

He sighed jokingly before answering, "Since I love you so much I just have to be the one to create opportunities like this to spend time with you. Never in my life would I ever thought that my rival with my wife's attention will be her work."

"It's fine, at least I still go home to you right?"

Xi Ana flashed a sweet smile and when Lim Yi Sheng turned and saw this his heart melted like a puddle.

"Jokes aside, it seems like you will also tell me something tonight. Is that right?" his wife really is really good at observing other people.

"Yeah. Actually I've been planning to tell you this for a while now I just can't get the right timing to do so since we were both busy."

For a few seconds Xi Ana was silent, "I have a feeling that what you will be saying is something very important."

"You can say that."

"I was also planning to tell you something later but because you said that just now I think its better if I say it now."

Lim Yi Sheng frowned because she can hear the seriousness on her tone, is she upset over something? "What is it?"

"Is your vice president a reliable person?"

Hearing the question Lim Yi Sheng's frown became deeper. Is this about Lim Corporation's collaboration with the Southville project? "He's always done every task I gave him efficiently that's why I have entrusted him big projects as well. Why are you suddenly asking, did he mess up Southville project?"

Because it was a project that involves Xi Corporation which is his wife's of course he also paid extra attention to it but when it comes to approvals everything was in the vice president's care and just reports everything to him.

If it was a joint project where they would also incorporate investments on top of the architectural designs they provided he could have handled it but the investors were already chosen even before they got married.
