This house is alright; it was only recently built.

It's a small apartment, about 200 square meters, with four bedrooms including the study. It's large, but not that big.

The two had previously visited a real large-scale apartment, but Chen Lu felt it was a bit too big and lacked any sense of home and warmth.

"We can put the projector here."

Chen Lu pointed to the wall in the living room, saying that the distance between it and the sofa behind it was just right, and it would be very comfortable to hold Liang Zhirou while watching a movie.

Noticing that Liang Zhirou didn't speak, he turned his head to look at her and realized that the girl's attention had been drawn to the panoramic floor-to-ceiling window next to her.

She was standing by the window, looking very focused.

"I've noticed you quite like floor-to-ceiling windows," Chen Lu said softly as he walked to the girl's side.

This is the 20th floor, with a very open view. Watching the snowflakes falling outside from this position is truly a unique sight.

Liang Zhirou nodded gently, "You can see the riverside from here, just like the hotel we stayed at before."

"This place was built as a river-view property," the salesperson, who had been barely noticeable throughout, suddenly said.

Seeing that the two only responded with a nod and their reaction was not strong, she immediately changed her words:

"There is an international kindergarten a few hundred meters away from the community, which will make it very convenient for the two of us to take care of the baby in the future."

“In the future, the two of you can simply hold hands and take a walk every day to take the child to school together, which won’t take up much of your time.”

"But when children are picked up and dropped off by both their parents, they will definitely feel that they are happier than other children."

Chen Lu suddenly became interested, but when he saw Liang Zhirou's eyes shining, he was stunned for a moment.

Damn, I almost got carried away.

He was already imagining himself and Liang Zhirou taking the child to kindergarten.

This is outrageous! If I think about it for a while longer, I might have to pay on the spot.

...This salesperson knows how to sell things.

After a while, the two came out after viewing the house. Seeing that the snow still hadn't shrunk, Chen Lu stretched out his arm and held up the floor plan to shield the girl next to him from the snow.

Liang Zhirou was completely unaware, and simply lowered her head, counting on her fingers one by one.

This house looks very expensive.

Even if she earns over 20,000 yuan a month now, it would still take her one or two decades to earn that much without eating or drinking...

But Chen Lu's previous bank account balance seemed to be enough to buy about two of these houses.

The more I think about it, the more I realize that her husband seems to be exceptionally capable...

Chen Lu had no idea what this simpleton was plotting, nor did he know where her adoring gaze came from.

Although Liang Zhirou never said she wanted to buy it, he noticed the girl's reaction and quietly raised the priority of this house to the highest level.

Something you can't buy with money is what she likes.

Live within your means. If he doesn't earn money, the two of them will still get married in that old rented house.

After all, Liang Zhirou genuinely didn't care about this and was truly willing.

But now that we have the means, we must give Liang Zhirou the best life possible.

The house they just looked at was less than a kilometer from Jiang Chao's house. Remembering that Liu Yan's due date seemed to be approaching, the two of them decided to go and visit her on their way.

With the Spring Festival approaching, Spring Festival couplets have already been pasted on the front of the villa, and the holly bushes next to it are growing very well, with a lush and deep color, clearly having been carefully tended.

Just as Chen Lu was about to knock on the door, he suddenly noticed a strange new object in front of it.

I leaned closer and saw that the screen was already scanning his face.

This spendthrift son of mine makes a little money and then squanders it all, even getting facial recognition technology into his scheme.

Chen Lu muttered to himself, then gestured with his chin toward Liang Zhirou beside him, "Isn't it impressive? How about we buy a big villa for our wedding?"

Anyway, they've already agreed to borrow the money from Wang Xiaoxia to buy the house first, and then pay it back later. It's better to get the wedding house ready as soon as possible.

After all, not having a wedding always leaves something on my mind and makes me uncomfortable.

Liang Zhirou pursed her lips and pondered for a moment, "You're always too lazy to eat breakfast at the dining table every morning, and if you live in a villa, you might have to go downstairs."

She still preferred the apartment she had just looked at; it had a huge floor-to-ceiling window that offered a view of the river both day and night. The expansive view made her feel much better.

And although the area is large, it is definitely cheaper than a villa.

It's not because I wanted to take the baby to kindergarten with Chen Lu, each holding one of the baby's hands... It's not because of that!

"......"

Chen Lu was stunned for a moment.

Suddenly, I don't feel so great about villas anymore.

This simpleton definitely wouldn't be willing to hire a cleaning lady; she'd be exhausted just from cleaning every day.

Before he could even find the doorbell, the door opened by itself.

"So high-tech? Does this thing recognize me?"

"I opened it with my phone." Jiang Chao looked at him like he was an idiot, then waved to the couple, "Come in and sit down."

When Liu Yan heard that Liang Zhirou had come over, she didn't want to stay in bed anymore and called Jiang Chao from the bedroom to help her out.

Just as Jiang Chao was about to go over, Chen Lu said to him, "Let my wife go over, don't make Liu Yan go through all that trouble."

Seeing Liang Zhirou close the door, Chen Lu glanced out the window; the snowflakes were still falling gently. He then looked back and asked softly:

"Isn't the date almost here?"

Jiang Chao has clearly been having a tough time lately; his dark circles are so thick they look like a panda's.

"At most, it won't be more than two weeks..." Jiang Chao nodded. "In two more days, I'll take her to the hospital to stay. There's no need to save this little bit of money, so we don't have to rush to the hospital at the last minute."

He didn't know if he was explaining this to Chen Lu or to himself.
