Chapter 267: You're just freeloading

Lu Ye took Bai Zhi to see his room.

It's about 20 square meters, and there's a large wardrobe inside. The beds are all new.

Looking at the room's furnishings, a warm feeling welled up inside her. She turned to Lu Ye, who had followed her in, and asked, "Did you buy this?"

"right."

She smiled and said, "Thank you, I really like how this house is decorated."

It was almost exactly the same as the boudoir she had once dreamed of.

When she lived in the countryside, she lived in the same courtyard as her grandfather. Although they were very poor, she still had her own adobe room.

Later, after his grandfather passed away, his stepmother and her father demolished the old courtyard where they lived and started raising pigs and chickens there.

She was forced to share a room with Bai Weiwei.

During those years, I lived with that woman, and not only did I have no privacy, but I was also constantly subjected to her sarcastic and hurtful remarks.

What's most infuriating is that Bai Weiwei and her stepmother ransacked all the belongings her mother left her.

Her biggest wish during those years was to have her own room.

Lay out the pink sheets and duvet cover.

In her past life, she did have her own room and her own house.

But I'm not at an age where I'd want to decorate my room in pink.

When she was studying medicine, in order to gain the trust of her patients, she not only dressed maturely, but also decorated her home in black, white and gray.

I'm so glad I had the chance to be a little girl again in this lifetime.

She can also legitimately sleep in a pink bed.

It was arranged by her boyfriend.

Overwhelmed with emotion, Bai Zhi reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, giving him a big hug.

Thank you.

"Silly boy, I'm your lover, why are you thanking me?"

He pulled her tightly into his arms and gently kissed her forehead.

The two were whispering sweet nothings when a teasing voice came from outside the door, "Oh my, this is so cheesy! Are you trying to kill me? I'm getting goosebumps."

Hearing that irritating voice, Lu Ye gritted his teeth and spat out a single word, "Get lost."

"I'm leaving now." Ye Qingbai, who was standing outside the door, had no choice but to cover his ears and run into the yard.

Lu Ye wanted to hold her a little longer, but Bai Zhi couldn't stay in his arms any longer. She quickly stood up straight and pushed him away.

His arms were empty, and he hated that damned guy outside even more.

A clueless single guy.

"Let's go outside."

Once outside, Ye Qingbai stood leisurely in the courtyard, one hand in his pocket.

He gestured to Bai Zhi, "Cousin, come and see my room too."

"good."

Since the curtain was opaque, Ye Qingbai only heard their voices and didn't see them embracing. Therefore, even though Bai Zhi was always aware of the era she lived in, she still didn't feel embarrassed at all.

And it's okay to see them hugging.

The ones who feel awkward and uncomfortable are the single people themselves; they are simply surrounded by happiness.

Compared to her room, Ye Qingbai's room was much simpler.

There was only a 1.5-meter bed and an old-fashioned four-legged table.

The bedding on the bed was also purchased by Ye Qingbai himself today.

This room was originally intended to be a guest room, and there were no plans to clean it up for the time being.

He insisted that he was also Ye Rufeng's grandson, and since he wasn't going back to Bincheng for the time being, he needed a room, so he decorated it himself.

After touring the rooms, they happily strolled under the grape trellis in the courtyard.

Ye Qingbai said happily,

"Cousin, this will be our home from now on."

"right."

The two were feeling quite pleased with themselves for having a place to live in Nancheng when Ye Rufeng came out of the living room and casually reminded them, "This is my home. You're just lodging here."

Ye Qingbai and Bai Zhi were immediately a little embarrassed.

"Second Grandfather, don't be so blunt. Isn't your home our home too? What's wrong with us younger generation benefiting from your presence?"

“When I buy a big house in the future, I will also reserve a room for you. I believe my cousin thinks the same way I do.”

Bai Zhi nodded in agreement, "Of course, not only will I reserve a room for my grandfather, but I will also buy him a big house."

As the two sang in harmony, Ye Rufeng's expression softened.

But he remained defiant, saying, "I don't need it, I have my own."

After saying that, she went back to her room with a haughty air.

They had long since figured out the old man's temperament, so no one took it to heart.

They will still be filial to their parents in the future.

"Oh, right, cousin, give me my uncle's phone number. I need to call him and my other uncles to tell them about my wedding and invite them to Nancheng for the ceremony."

Bai Zhi said, "Logically speaking, I should go to Bincheng in person to tell them the good news, but I'm currently in the military region and can't get away."

"Okay, let's make the call now. My dad will be very happy to hear that you're getting married."

Ye Qingbai was also eager to tell his father and Ye Tiandong the news.

His idea was to give his uncle a chance to come to Nancheng to relax, and perhaps through Bai Zhi's wedding, he could also ease the tension with his second grandfather.

It must be said that they all shared the same opinion on this issue.

"Cousin, when my uncle comes, could you give him your room to stay in?"

Bai Zhi was afraid that Ye Qingbai would misunderstand her meaning, so she hurriedly explained, "Don't worry, I'll book the best hotel for you, or you can stay wherever you want."

“My main goal is to get my grandfather and uncle living under the same roof so that we can clear up the misunderstanding between them and mend their relationship. My grandfather is getting old, and although he doesn’t say it, we can all tell that he cares a lot about his son. I think we should all work together to help them get back together.”

Upon hearing Bai Zhi's words, Ye Qingbai praised her repeatedly, "Cousin, I completely agree with your idea. To be honest, I was just thinking that when Uncle comes, I should ask him to ease the tension between him and Second Grandfather. What you said is exactly what I think."

He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, when my uncle comes, I will definitely make room for him in the house. Also, you don't need to worry about my accommodation, and you don't need to book the best hotel for me. My dad is rich and powerful. If he comes, he will definitely stay in the best hotel in Nancheng. I will just stay with him."

Bai Zhi looked at her cousin and instantly realized that he was also a rich second-generation.

Once they reached the street, they found a shop with a public telephone. Bai Zhi dialed Ye Tiandong's number first.

Since Ye Tiandong and Li Li went through divorce proceedings, Bai Zhi hasn't contacted him much.

She knew her uncle definitely didn't want anyone to bother him and wanted to give him some time to heal.

The call was answered quickly.

A hoarse male voice came from the other end of the phone, "Hello."
