Without waiting for Zhou's mother and Ye Wangshu to react, Li Xiaoxia jumped out directly.
"No, Uncle, what do you mean? You, you...how can you be so confused? Living in this compound has many benefits, how...how are you going to live like this from now on?"
Listening to his sister-in-law's responsibilities, Zhou Jincong's brows gradually furrowed. "I made this choice to make my life better."
Zhou Jincong looked at Ye Wangshu with a nervous look on his face, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was just delusional about him with a little doubt.
“Although the treatment in the team is good, it is difficult to earn more money.”
Zhou Jincong kept his eyes on Ye Wangshu, and said seriously, "Besides... I don't want to be separated from my wife."
Ye Wangshu didn't expect Zhou Jincong to think this way. He felt angry and moved at the same time.
"Is that why you left the team?" Ye Wangshu couldn't help but laugh, but after that, a bitter feeling rose in his heart. "Don't you regret leaving the team for this reason?"
Zhou Jincong shook his head and said, "No regrets. I never make decisions that I will regret."
"Jin Cong! Mom knows you're a persistent person. You insisted on following in your father's footsteps and joining the team, and I couldn't stop you no matter what I did."
Mother Zhou lowered her head, not letting anyone see her expression. "If you leave the team now, I can't persuade you to do anything. But have you ever thought about where we're going after we leave the compound?"
Zhou Jincong was stunned by his mother's words.
His original intention was to stay in his hometown first and then go to the city after he made some money.
But in this way, the quality of life will obviously decline.
"Mom, you don't have to worry about that. I have some money, enough to buy a house in the city."
Ye Wangshu originally wanted to buy it directly from the cosmetics store after the New Year, but now it seems he has to put it on hold.
But it’s also a good thing that their family can live in the city.
When Li Xiaoxia heard that they could live in the city, her eyes lit up instantly, and she couldn't utter a single word of dissatisfaction. Zhou Jinrui, standing next to her, did the same thing, his brows slightly furrowed before suddenly turning into a smile.
"Jin Cong, I believe that even if you are a businessman, you will definitely achieve success."
Zhou Jincong looked at Zhou Jinrui with a happy face and nodded at him.
"Moving is a big deal. I need to check the calendar and pick a good day." Mother Zhou breathed a sigh of relief when no one was saying anything sarcastic. "But how long can we live here?"
"My boss said I can stay until after the Spring Festival, but I want to move out as soon as possible."
Zhou Jincong made a great decision to leave the team.
But the longer he stayed at home, the more uncomfortable he felt.
But he hid it very well and felt that no one could find out.
The next day, Ye Wangshu asked Zhou Jincong to take her into the city.
"Hubby, you didn't even discuss such a big thing with me? And...why did you just say you wanted to move out?"
"I don't know how to tell you, I'm afraid you..."
Zhou Jincong had tried to test it before, but Ye Wangshu was determined to let him stay in the team.
That's why he didn't tell Ye Wangshu right away.
"I won't blame you. I believe you will do well in whatever you do."
Zhou Jincong’s success in his previous life was not fake. With his help in this life, Ye Wangshu believed that this person would be even more outstanding.
"Actually, I have enough money to buy a house in the city, but..."
"I know you need capital to do business." Ye Wangshu turned his head and looked at Zhou Jincong who was driving seriously, with a smile on his face, "So the house I bought can only be owned by me."
"Um."
Ye Wangshu didn't expect that Zhou Jincong would only reply with this one word. For a moment, he didn't know whether this person was willing or not.
After all, in this era, including in the minds of many people with strong patriarchal ideas in the future, women's names cannot appear on real estate certificates.
They cannot accept the idea that many women are stronger than them.
"Actually, you can let me invest. Then I'll have a stake in your business, and the house can be registered under both of our names."
Zhou Jincong paused, then pulled the car to the side of the road.
"Wangshu, I do business so I can be with you better. Although it may be a bit irresponsible to say this, I find that I can't train with the team without you around."
"So you chose to resign, right?" Ye Wangshu didn't expect that his influence on Zhou Jincong would be so great, and for a moment he felt it was a bit mysterious.
Obviously, this was something Zhou Jincong had always regretted in his previous life.
Why is it that because of me, he left the team on his own and embarked on the path of his previous life?
"I want you to be by my side all the time. I don't want to be separated from you for a long time. I also want to give you a rich life."
Zhou Jincong gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands and looked at Ye Wangshu seriously. "Just put your name on the house. Once my business is established, it will all be yours."
"Why...are you so nice to me!"
Ye Wangshu's heart ached, and he threw himself into Zhou Jincong's arms. "If you need help with your business, you must tell me. Although I'm just starting out, I know a few people and have some savings."
"Okay." Zhou Jincong promised to save Ye Wangshu, but he secretly swore in his heart that he would never let Ye Wangshu worry about him.
During the Spring Festival, almost all shops are closed.
After the two arrived in the city, they didn't see many people except the streets decorated with lights.
"Luckily, I had the agent's phone number, and he's from the city, so he was willing to make the trip during the Lunar New Year holiday. Otherwise, we would have had to wait a long time before we could buy a house."
Ye Wangshu glanced at Zhou Jincong, a hint of disapproval flashing across his face, "If you had told me in advance, I might have bought a house before the New Year."
Zhou Jincong scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "I didn't think about it before, I just wanted to live in my hometown for a while."
After finding the agent, the two of them rushed to look at houses.
"This location is good, but... there's nothing inside." Ye Wangshu frowned slightly, feeling a little melancholy as he looked at the empty house in front of him.
Not only is this house close to the high school Zhou Xiaohong is going to, it is also not far from her own store, and it is also large.
But it's an empty shell.
"Ma'am, you don't understand! Although many people in our city have renovated their houses, it's expensive and difficult for the renovations to meet the residents' requirements. Many people will tear them down and rebuild them."
Ye Wangshu nodded, she was clear about this.
But she didn't care about this, and even felt that the house had been renovated and all she had left was to run around buying furniture and appliances.
"There's a department store nearby. They're open during the Spring Festival and have sales! It's also convenient for women to shop, so you can not only find the right space but also decorate it yourself!"
Ye Wangshu pursed his lips and nodded, thinking for a while before deciding to buy the house.
Compared to the houses in the compound, this house is a little smaller, but compared to other houses in the city, it is much larger.
