Rebirth in the ’70s: The Cold-Faced Commander’s Pampered Feisty Wife

In the year 1977, Zhan Nanhui, a former Deputy Director of the National Security Bureau, was undercover as a “re-educated” criminal doing manual labor in the countryside. His mission was compro...

Chapter 241 Thinking about having a home in the capital

Xue Ling'er frowned and quickly raised her eyes to take a look. At that time, she was at the school gate. She just glanced at Yi An'an who was stroking the school motto, and did not look carefully, so she could not be sure at all.

After being reminded by roommate No. 2, roommate Yi immediately took a closer look. She thought about it and nodded: "It seems a bit similar!"

Xue Linger frowned. This man could be unfaithful, but he would never allow other women to play tricks on her. She and her roommates rushed towards Zhan Nanhui and Yi Anan.

Yi Anan was admiring the campus while holding Zhan Nanhui's hand. When she looked up, she saw Xue Ling'er and two roommates rushing over. She knew that her fake master identity might have been exposed, but she remained calm and reminded Zhan Nanhui with a smile, "It seems that your blind date is here to see you!"

Zhan Nanhui was walking around the campus sweetly holding Yi Anan's hand when he suddenly heard these words. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He looked up and saw Xue Ling'er and two roommates had already arrived in front of them.

Zhan Nanhui frowned and couldn't help turning back to Yi An'an and said, "I've explained to you that I didn't go on a blind date with her. She's just the daughter of my father's old subordinate!"

Xue Ling'er happened to be in front of the two of them. When she heard this, her face suddenly turned red.

The two roommates were also stunned. They didn't expect Zhan Nanhui and Xue Ling'er to have such a relationship. Xue Ling'er had never mentioned it before.

"Zhan Nanhui, now that your father has been rehabilitated, aren't you begging my father for help?" Xue Linger shouted in a deep voice, "Why do you think you are superior?"

Zhan Nanhui frowned slightly and turned to look at Xue Ling'er: "That's his business. I really don't feel inferior because of his superior status!"

Zhan Nanhui's voice was indifferent, and he stood in front of Xue Ling'er with a solemn look, "It's just right that you are here, you can help explain our relationship to my wife!"

Xue Linger frowned: "Who is helping you... What did you say, this person is your wife?"

Xue Linger stared at Yi Anan coldly, "You are the one who pretended to be a master and said that I was not on good terms with Zhan Nanhui, right?"

Yi Anan asked with a smile: "May I ask what I said at that time?"

Xue Ling'er glanced at roommate one and roommate two.

Roommate 2 immediately said, "You said that Zhan Nanhui's love star moved half a year ago, and he should be married! And his family had fallen into poverty before, so it's hard to recover!"

After the second roommate finished speaking, Xue Linger's face turned very ugly.

"Am I right?" Yi An'an looked at Xue Ling'er with a smile, "Even if others don't know, you will know it too, right?"

Xue Ling'er gritted her teeth.

It was because she believed the master's words at that time that she distanced herself from Zhan Nanhui, but she never thought that it was this woman's work!

"Since I didn't say anything wrong, then I didn't lie to you. Besides, I didn't take your money at that time. I just said it casually!" Yi Anan said with a smile.

Xue Ling'er clenched her fingers. She now knew that she had fallen into Yi An'an's trap!

But now the Zhan family has not yet recovered their status, so she doesn't care about this marriage!

"Let's go!" Xue Ling'er didn't want to continue to tangle with Yi An'an. She had realized clearly that she was no match for Yi An'an!

Before roommate 1 and roommate 2 could say anything else, they were pulled away by Xue Ling'er.

Xue Ling'er returned to the dormitory, thought about it, became more and more angry, and couldn't help crying.

Yi Anan got in the car and sat in the passenger seat.

Zhan Nanhui glanced at Yi Anan and suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Yi Anan glanced at him.

"I didn't expect you to be so sinister. You even pretended to be a master and made Xue Ling'er give up!" Zhan Nanhui said.

"At that time, I just didn't want to see a good girl being cheated by a married scumbag, so I gave her some advice!" Yi Anan said.

Zhan Nanhui couldn't help but blush: "I explained to you that those things were arranged by Murong Yi, and when I met Xue Ling'er that day, I told her about my marriage!"

Yi Anan nodded: "It's okay, otherwise I wouldn't bother to pay attention to you!"

Zhan Nanhui then breathed a sigh of relief and slowly started the car.

Zhan Nanhui arranged for Yi An'an to live in a courtyard near the Forbidden City, a quadrangle courtyard.

Yi Anan stood in the courtyard, took a look around, and deeply knew the future potential of this courtyard, so he asked: "Did you rent this courtyard?"

Zhan Nanhui shook his head: "I bought it!"

Yi Anan widened her eyes. She didn't expect Zhan Nanhui to be so financially savvy that he started buying houses seven or eight years ago?

“It’s hard to buy a house now, especially a courtyard like this!” These courtyards have historical issues and were previously rented to factory employees. In the 1980s, the state issued some policies to renovate these courtyards. Those who rented the houses were unwilling to pay the high renovation costs, so they sold some of the houses and bought and sold them on the market.

When Yi Anan was receiving treatment at the Capital Hospital, he met a fellow patient who was in the same situation.

For the same disease, the difference between Yi An'an and that person is that Yi An'an has no money to buy imported medicine with good efficacy, but that person has received several courses of treatment.

"I thought you would have a place to stay when you come to the capital." Zhan Nanhui said, "This house belonged to an elder I knew before. He went abroad, so I took the opportunity to buy it."

Zhan Nanhui pointed ahead again, "Although this place is a little far from Kyoto University, there is a direct bus there. The most important thing is that Liuli Street is not far away. I think you will definitely like it here."

Yi Anan followed Zhan Nanhui into the room.

In the room, there is a set of tables and chairs, also made of wood. The texture on the surface of the tables and chairs is clearly visible. On the table, there are several small and exquisite tea sets. The luster of porcelain and the warmth of wood complement each other.

In the corner of the room, several pots of green plants grew in an orderly manner. A pot of orchid hangs gracefully on the edge of the flowerpot, contrasting with the bed, table and chairs in the house, creating a quaint and tranquil atmosphere.

"These are what I brought with me originally. I just bought some bedding and other things for the bed." Zhan Nanhui pulled Yi An'an and held her in his arms while they sat on the bed. "Even this bed is said to be three hundred years old. Would you like to appraise it?"

Yi Anan took a look at the intricate and exquisite carvings on the bedside. The traditional patterns of blooming peony and magpie climbing branches were lifelike. Every line was full of the craftsman's exquisite skills and beautiful expectations. She nodded and said, "Although I have only learned a little about identification, it feels like it is quite old!"

Yi Anan likes it here very much. She never thought that she would feel at home in the capital!
