Qiao Xiaoni was generally satisfied with the house's structure; it was enough for the two of them.

Su Chenhao paid close attention to many things, and after looking around, he couldn't find any major problems.

The two looked at each other and seemed satisfied, feeling that it was time to make a decision.

Su Chenhao said to Zhu Wenhua, "Since we're new here, let's offer a discount. We plan to rent for six months."

Zhu Wenhua was very happy; finally, someone was willing to rent the house. And it was for six months at once. He thought about it for a moment.

"For six months, I won't take your deposit anymore. You can pay me 400 yuan and we'll sign the contract."

Starting today, you can use any furniture in the house as you like; it doesn't matter if it breaks.

Su Chenhao and Qiao Xiaoni exchanged a glance, agreed on the price, and offered no further objections.

So, I wrote a rental agreement, went to the neighborhood committee to say hello, got it signed, and that was it—the house was rented.

They hadn't expected to rent the house so quickly. After seeing them off, the two returned to the rented house and unpacked their luggage.

After about an hour of tinkering, the whole house looked brand new, and even the windows had new curtains.

The two sat on the recliners, simultaneously letting out a sigh of relief, then smiled at each other.

There was no clock inside the house, and it was getting dark outside.

Qiao Xiaoni took out the kitchen utensils she had prepared in advance from her space, including pots, pans, oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar; the cupboard was completely filled.

Back in the living room, she asked Su Chenhao, "What would you like to eat tonight?"

Su Chenhao: "Just eat something simple. You've had a long day, so get some rest. You have to go to school to register tomorrow, so it's better to get up early."

Qiao Xiaoni returned to the kitchen, took out the dumplings she had made before from her storage space, and cooked two large plates of dumplings.

Then I made two bowls of sauce, and the first meal was ready.

The lights in the room weren't very bright, the wattage was a bit low, and the dim lighting made the room feel especially cozy.

He sighed silently, seeing the prince's infatuated expression, he was truly head over heels in love. Looking at the dumplings in the bowl, he realized that chive filling was his least favorite, yet today's dumplings were precisely that.

I remember that His Highness used to dislike eating chives because he had never seen them before.

Su Chenhao finished the last dumpling, quickly cleared the table, and went to the kitchen to wash and put away the dishes.

I'm so happy. I finally have my own place with my little girl, and I don't have to hold back when we talk anymore.

"Honey, which room would you like to stay in?"

"Any room will do; the two rooms look about the same size."

"Then you can stay in the room on the north side, the window doesn't let in any wind."

"OK."

Silently, they felt no will to live and completely ignored it.

Qiao Xiaoni glanced at the bathroom; it had the old-fashioned shower facilities—a metal bucket filled with hot water on the wall, and a showerhead underneath. She didn't need to shower here, but Su Chenhao could have a good shower.

Not knowing how things were at home, Qiao Xiaoni took out her homemade shampoo and soap and put them on the shelf. She also prepared two sets of towels and toothbrushes.

Outsiders can't tell the difference between these things, but you can't bring out any more advanced appliances.

Su Chenhao went back inside, changed into a pair of shorts, and went to the bathroom shirtless, ready to wash up and go to bed.

Qiao Xiaoni wasn't unaware that he was shirtless; it was the first time she had seen him alone with him, so it was no wonder her heart raced.

Su Chenhao saw through her intentions but didn't say anything: "Wife, I'm going to take a shower first. It's been so long since I've taken a shower. I can finally have a good one today."

"I've prepared everything. You can wash here, I'll go back to my space to wash." After saying that, he turned around and left in a hurry. If he looked any longer, he would definitely get a nosebleed. His body was too hot. How did he get those defined abs?
